Application Number: | 14/729,934 |
Claims: | 1. A method of treating acute myelogenous leukemia in a human, which comprises cyclically administering for 21 days followed by seven days rest in a 28 day cycle to a human having acute myelogenous leukemia a therapeutically effective amount of 3-(4-amino-1-oxo-1,3-dihydro-isoindol-2-yl)-piperidine-2,6-dione, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof at an amount of about 1 mg/day to about 50 mg/day. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the acute myelogenous leukemia is relapsed, refractory or resistant to conventional therapy. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the amount of 3-(4-amino-oxo-1,3-dihydro-isoindol-2-yl)-piperidine-2,6-dione administered is about 5, 10 or 25 mg per day. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the amount of 3-(4-amino-oxo-1,3-dihydro-isoindol-2-yl)-piperidine-2,6-dione administered is about 1, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, or 50 mg per day. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein 3-(4-amino-oxo-1,3-dihydro-isoindol-2-yl)-piperidine-2,6-dione administered is enantiomerically pure. 6. The method of claim 5, wherein 3-(4-amino-oxo-1,3-dihydro-isoindol-2-yl)-piperidine-2,6-dione administered is S enantiomer. 7. The method of claim 5, wherein 3-(4-amino-oxo-1,3-dihydro-isoindol-2-yl)-piperidine-2,6-dione administered is R enantiomer. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein 3-(4-amino-oxo-1,3-dihydro-isoindol-2-yl)-piperidine-2,6-dione is administered in the form of a capsule or tablet. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein 3-(4-amino-oxo-1,3-dihydro-isoindol-2-yl)-piperidine-2,6-dione is administered in an amount of about 25 mg per day for 21 days followed by seven days rest in a 28 day cycle. 10. The method of claim 1, wherein the human has not received prior therapy for acute myelogenous leukemia. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein the human has received prior therapy for acute myelogenous leukemia and has demonstrated progression on prior therapy. 12. The method of claim 1, wherein 3-(4-amino-oxo-1,3-dihydro-isoindol-2-yl)-piperidine-2,6-dione is administered daily. 13. The method of claim 8, wherein 3-(4-amino-oxo-1,3-dihydro-isoindol-2-yl)-piperidine-2,6-dione is administered in the form of a capsule or tablet at an amount of about 5 mg, 10 mg, 15 mg or 20 mg. 14. The method of claim 13, wherein the capsule comprises 3-(4-amino-oxo-1,3-dihydro-isoindol-2-yl)-piperdine-2,6-dione, lactose anhydrous, microcrystalline cellulose, croscarmellose sodium, and magnesium stearate. |
