Assignee:	LAM Therapeutics, Inc. (Guilford, CT)
Application Number:	15/524,844
Patent Claims:	1. A method for treating clear cell renal carcinoma in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the subject a pharmaceutical composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of apilimod dimesylate in combination with a vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitor. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising administering at least one additional active agent. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein the at least one additional active agent is a therapeutic agent or a non-therapeutic agent, or a combination thereof. 4. The method of claim 3, wherein the therapeutic agent is selected from the group consisting of a protein kinase inhibitor, a PD-1/PDL-1 pathway inhibitor, a checkpoint inhibitor, a platinum based anti-neoplastic agent, a topoisomerase inhibitor, a nucleoside metabolic inhibitor, an alkylating agent, an intercalating agent, a tubulin binding agent, and combinations thereof. 5. The method of claim 4, wherein the therapeutic agent is a protein kinase inhibitor. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the VEGF inhibitor is pazopanib or sorafenib, or a combination thereof. 7. The method of claim 4, wherein the therapeutic agent is a PD-1/PDL-1 pathway inhibitor. 8. The method of claim 7, wherein the therapeutic agent is selected from pembrolizumab, avelumab, atezolizumab (MPDL3280A), nivolurnab (BMS-936558), pidilizumab (MK-3475), MSB0010718C, and MEDI4736. 9. The method of claim 1 further comprising administering a non-therapeutic agent selected to ameliorate one or more side effects of the apilimod. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the non-therapeutic agent is selected from the group consisting of ondanestron, granisetron, dolsetron, and palonosctron. 11. The method of claim 9, wherein the non-therapeutic agent is selected from the group consisting of pindolol and risperidone. 12. The method of claim 1, wherein the therapeutically effective amount of the apilimod dimesylate is the amount effective to inhibit PIKfyve kinase activity in cancer cells of the subject. 13. The method of claim 1, wherein the clear cell renal carcinoma is refractory to standard treatment or is metastatic. 14. The method of claim 1, wherein the composition is in a form suitable for oral or intravenous administration. 15. The method of claim 1, wherein the VEGF inhibitor is selected from the group consisting of bevacizumab, sunitinib, pazopanib, axitinib, sorafenib, regorafenib, lenvatinib, motesanib, and vandetanib.
