The present invention relates to an (S)-enantiomer of an aminoheteroaryl compound for use in treating and/or preventing cancer in a subject. The invention further relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising said compound. Another aspect of the invention is directed to an in vitro method for determining the effectiveness of said (S)-enantiomer of an aminoheteroaryl compound, or said pharmaceutical composition, the method comprising the steps of: (a) obtaining a cell or tissue sample from a subject; and (b) determining the subject's NUDT1/MTH1-status; wherein a NUDT1/MTH1-positive cell or tissue sample is indicative of an effective treatment and/or prevention of cancer. In addition, provided herein is a screening method for identifying a target of an (S)-enantiomer of an aminoheteroaryl compound. Furthermore, in context of this invention, the herein described compounds inhibit the biological activity of MTH1.
本发明涉及一种氨基杂环化合物的(S)-对映体,用于治疗和/或预防受体内癌症。本发明还涉及一种含有该化合物的药物组合物。本发明的另一个方面涉及一种体外方法,用于确定该氨基杂环化合物的(S)-对映体或该药物组合物的有效性,该方法包括以下步骤:(a)从受体中获取细胞或组织样本;(b)确定受体的NUDT1/MTH1状态;其中,NUDT1/MTH1阳性的细胞或组织样本表明癌症治疗和/或预防有效。此外,本文还提供了一种筛选方法,用于识别(S)-氨基杂环化合物的靶标。此外,在本发明的背景下,所述化合物抑制MTH1的生物活性。
