Application Number:	14/426,114
Patent Claims:	1. A method of treating or managing locally advanced breast cancer comprising administering to a patient in need of such treatment or management a therapeutically effective amount of 3-(5-amino-2-methyl-4-oxo-4H-quinazolin-3-yl)-piperidine-2,6-dione, or an enantiomer or mixture of enantiomers thereof; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, co-crystal, or clathrate thereof. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the locally advanced breast cancer is inflammatory breast cancer. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the cancer is relapsed or refractory. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the cancer is drug-resistant. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the compound is 3-(5-amino-2-methyl-4-oxo-4H-quinazolin-3-yl)-piperidine-2,6-dione, or a salt thereof. 6. The method of claim 1, further comprising the administration of a therapeutically effective amount of one or more additional active agents. 7. The method of claim 6, wherein the additional active agent is selected from the group consisting of paclitaxel, docetaxel, protein-bound paclitaxel, 5-azacytidine, capecitabine, gemcitabine, romidepsin, vorinostat, panobinostat, valproic acid, belinostat, etinostat, trastuzumab, trastuzumab emtansine, lapatinib, bevacizumab, pertuzumab, doxorubicin, daunorubicin, mitoxantrone, amsacrine, aurintricarboxylic acid, irinotecan, topotecan, camtothecin, lamellarin D, etoposide, teniposide, tamoxifen, cisplatin, carboplatin, oxaliplatin, vinblastine, vincristine, vindesine, vinorelbine, navitoclax, a Bcl-2 inhibitor, and PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway inhibitor. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the compound, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered in an amount of from about 0.5 to about 50 mg per day. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein the compound, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered in an amount of about 0.5 to about 5 mg per day. 10. The method of claim 8, wherein the compound, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered in an amount of about 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 or 50 mg per day. 11. The method of claim 8, wherein the compound, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is orally administered. 12. The method of claim 8, wherein the compound, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, is administered in a capsule or tablet. 13. The method of claim 8, wherein the compound is administered in 10 mg or 25 mg of a capsule. 14. The method of claim 1, wherein the compound is administered for 21 days followed by seven days rest in a 28 day cycle. 15. A method for treating or managing locally advanced breast cancer, comprising: (i) identifying a patient having locally advanced breast cancer sensitive to treatment with 3-(5-amino-2-methyl-4-oxo-4H-quinazolin-3-yl)-piperidine-2,6-dione, or an enantiomer or mixture of enantiomers thereof; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt co-crystal, or clathrate thereof; and (ii) administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount the compound selected in step (i). 16. The method of claim 15, wherein the locally advanced breast cancer is inflammatory breast cancer. 17. The method of claim 15, wherein identifying a patient having locally advanced breast cancer sensitive to treatment comprises detecting the level of expression of CRBN, Aiolos (IKZF3) or Ikaros (IKZF1) expression within the cancer.
