A recently granted patent (US12042499B2) outlines a novel method for treating small cell lung cancer through a specific combination of pharmaceutical agents. The primary active ingredient is 4-{[9-chloro-7-(2-fluoro-6-methoxyphenyl)-5H-pyrimido[5,4-d][2]benzazepin-2-yl]amino}-2-methoxybenzoic acid, or its pharmaceutically acceptable salts, administered at a dosage of approximately 48.6 mg twice daily. This compound is combined with a platinum-based drug, either cisplatin or carboplatin, with cisplatin dosed at about 12 mg/m² per day or carboplatin administered at an area under the curve (AUC) of about 4.6 mg/mL/min. Notably, the claims specify that these two agents are the only active ingredients utilized in the treatment regimen.

The patent further details the administration schedule for both agents. The pyrimido compound is to be given twice daily on specific days within a 28-day cycle, while the platinum agent can be administered on day 1, or on days 1, 8, and 15 of the same cycle. The method allows for both sequential and simultaneous administration of the two drugs, with the pyrimido compound being administered orally and the platinum agent intravenously. This comprehensive approach aims to enhance the efficacy of treatment for patients suffering from small cell lung cancer, providing a structured regimen that could potentially improve patient outcomes.
