COMBINATION THERAPY FOR TREATING CANCER
The disclosure relates to methods, compounds for use and medicaments for the treatment of cancer comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a first agent in a therapeutically effective amount and one or more second agents each in a therapeutically effective amount. In some embodiments, the first agent comprises an EZH2 inhibitor. In certain embodiments, the first agent is tazemetostat or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and the methods of the disclosure are used to treat lung cancer, e.g., non-small cell lung cancer.

INHIBITION OF BMI1 ELIMINATES CANCER STEM CELLS AND ACTIVATES ANTITUMOR IMMUNITY
The present disclosure reports that pharmacological or genetic inhibition of Moloney murine leukemia virus insertion site 1 (BMI1) not only helped to eliminate BMI1+ cancer stem cells (CSCs), but can also augment PD1 blockade by strongly induced tumor cell-intrinsic immune responses by recruiting and activating CD8+ T cells. Taken together, the results indicate that in addition to purging CSCs, targeting BMI1 would enable immune checkpoint blockade to inhibit metastatic tumor growth and prevent tumor relapse by activating cell-intrinsic immunity.
