[0189] Liquid dosage forms for oral and parenteral administration include pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, microemulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups and elixirs. In addition to the active ingredients, the liquid dosage forms may comprise inert diluents commonly used in the art such as, for example, water or other solvents, solubilizing agents and emulsifiers such as ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl carbonate, ethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, propylene glycol, 1,3-butylene glycol, dimethylformamide, oils (e.g., cottonseed, groundnut, corn, germ, olive, castor, and sesame oils), glycerol, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, polyethylene glycols and fatty acid esters of sorbitan, and mixtures thereof. Besides inert diluents, the oral compositions can include adjuvants such as wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, sweetening, flavoring, and perfuming agents. In certain embodiments for parenteral administration, the conjugates described herein are mixed with solubilizing agents such as Cremophor®, alcohols, oils, modified oils, glycols, polysorbates, cyclodextrins, polymers, and mixtures thereof.
[0190] Injectable preparations, for example, sterile injectable aqueous or oleaginous suspensions can be formulated according to the known art using suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents. The sterile injectable preparation can be a sterile injectable solution, suspension, or emulsion in a nontoxic parenterally acceptable diluent or solvent, for example, as a solution in 1,3-butanediol. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that can be employed are water, Ringer's solution, U.S.P., and isotonic sodium chloride solution. In addition, sterile, fixed oils are conventionally employed as a solvent or suspending medium. For this purpose any bland fixed oil can be employed including synthetic mono- or di-glycerides. In addition, fatty acids such as oleic acid are used in the preparation of injectables.
[0191] The injectable formulations can be sterilized, for example, by filtration through a bacterial-retaining filter, or by incorporating sterilizing agents in the form of sterile solid compositions which can be dissolved or dispersed in sterile water or other sterile injectable medium prior to use.
[0192] In order to prolong the effect of a drug, it is often desirable to slow the absorption of the drug from subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. This can be accomplished by the use of a liquid suspension of crystalline or amorphous material with poor water solubility. The rate of absorption of the drug then depends upon its rate of dissolution, which, in turn, may depend upon crystal size and crystalline form. Alternatively, delayed absorption of a parenterally administered drug form may be accomplished by dissolving or suspending the drug in an oil vehicle.
[0193] Compositions for rectal or vaginal administration are typically suppositories which can be prepared by mixing the conjugates described herein with suitable non-irritating excipients or carriers such as cocoa butter, polyethylene glycol, or a suppository wax which are solid at ambient temperature but liquid at body temperature and therefore melt in the rectum or vaginal cavity and release the active ingredient.
[0194] Solid dosage forms for oral administration include capsules, tablets, pills, powders, and granules. In such solid dosage forms, the active ingredient is mixed with at least one inert, pharmaceutically acceptable excipient or carrier such as sodium citrate or dicalcium phosphate and/or (a) fillers or extenders such as starches, lactose, sucrose, glucose, mannitol, and silicic acid, (b) binders such as, for example, carboxymethylcellulose, alginates, gelatin, polyvinylpyrrolidinone, sucrose, and acacia, (c) humectants such as glycerol, (d) disintegrating agents such as agar, calcium carbonate, potato or tapioca starch, alginic acid, certain silicates, and sodium carbonate, (e) solution retarding agents such as paraffin, (f) absorption accelerators such as quaternary ammonium compounds, (g) wetting agents such as, for example, cetyl alcohol and glycerol monostearate, (h) absorbents such as kaolin and bentonite clay, and (i) lubricants such as talc, calcium stearate, magnesium stearate, solid polyethylene glycols, sodium lauryl sulfate, and mixtures thereof. In the case of capsules, tablets, and pills, the dosage form may include a buffering agent.
[0195] Solid compositions of a similar type can be employed as fillers in soft and hard-filled gelatin capsules using such excipients as lactose or milk sugar as well as high molecular weight polyethylene glycols and the like. The solid dosage forms of tablets, drag-es, capsules, pills, and granules can be prepared with coatings and shells such as enteric coatings and other coatings well known in the art of pharmacology. They may optionally comprise opacifying agents and can be of a composition that they release the active ingredient(s) only, or preferentially, in a certain part of the intestinal tract, optionally, in a delayed manner. Examples of encapsulating compositions which can be used include polymeric substances and waxes. Solid compositions of a similar type can be employed as fillers in soft and hard-filled gelatin capsules using such excipients as lactose or milk sugar as well as high molecular weight polyethylene glycols and the like.
[0196] The active ingredient can be in a micro-encapsulated form with one or more excipients as noted above. The solid dosage forms of tablets, dragées, capsules, pills, and granules can be prepared with coatings and shells such as enteric coatings, release controlling coatings, and other coatings well known in the pharmaceutical formulating art. In such solid dosage forms the active ingredient can be admixed with at least one inert diluent such as sucrose, lactose, or starch.

[0222] Without wishing to be bound by any particular theory, in certain embodiments the compounds described herein are able to bind (e.g., covalently modify) the kinase being inhibited. In certain embodiments, a compound described herein is able to bind (e.g., covalently modify) to the kinase. In certain embodiments, the kinase is JAK. In certain embodiments, the kinase is JAK2. In certain embodiments, the kinase is JAK3. In certain embodiments, the kinase is JAK1. In certain embodiments, the kinase is TYK2.
[0223] In certain embodiments, provided are methods of decreasing the activity of a kinase (e.g., JAK (e.g., JAK2)) in a subject, biological sample, or cell by at least about 1%, at least about 3%, at least about 10%, at least about 20%, at least about 30%, at least about 40%, at least about 50%, at least about 60%, at least about 70%, at least about 80%, or at least about 90%. In certain embodiments, the activity of a kinase in a subject, biological sample, or cell is decreased by at least about 1%, at least about 3%, at least about 10%, at least about 20%, at least about 30%, at least about 40%, at least about 50%, at least about 60%, at least about 70%, at least about 80%, or at least about 90%.

In some embodiments, the activity of a kinase (e.g., JAK2) in a subject, biological sample, or cell is selectively decreased by a compound or pharmaceutical composition described herein.
[0224] A disease, including proliferative disease, may be associated with aberrant or undesired activity of a kinase, and/or overexpression of the kinase. Aberrant or undesired activity of a kinase may be an increased or a decreased level of activity of the kinase. Proliferative diseases are sometimes associate with abnormal levels of JAK activity, frequently through increased or decreased JAK activation. Inhibition of the activity of JAK2 would be expected to inhibit phosphorylation. In certain embodiments, JAK2 is not overexpressed, but the activity of JAK2 is increased. In certain embodiments, JAK2 is overexpressed, and the activity of JAK2 is increased. The compounds and pharmaceutical compositions described herein may inhibit the activity of JAK2 and be useful in treating and/or preventing diseases, such as diseases associated with the aberrant, increased, or undesired activity of a kinase, overactivation of the kinase, and/or overexpression of the kinase.
[0225] JAK1 has been implicated in the signaling of the common gamma chain (γc) of type I cytokine receptors, to elicit signals from the IL-2 receptor family (e.g. IL-2R, IL-7R, IL-9R and IL-15R), the IL-4 receptor family (e.g. IL-4R and IL-13R), the gp130 receptor family (e.g. IL-6R, IL-11R, LIF-R, OSM-R, cardiotrophin-1 receptor (CT-1R), ciliary neurotrophic factor receptor (CNTF-R), and neurotrophin-1 receptor (NNT-1R) and Leptin-R.
[0226] JAK2 has been implicated in signaling by members of the type II cytokine receptor family (e.g. interferon receptors), the GM-CSF receptor family (IL-3R, IL-5R and GM-CSF-R), the gp130 receptor family (e.g., IL-6R), and the single chain receptors (e.g. Epo-R, Tpo-R, GH-R, PRL-R). JAK3 has been implicated in the signaling of the common gamma chain (yc) of the type I cytokine receptor family (e.g. IL-2R, IL-4R, IL-7R, IL-9R, IL-15R, and IL-21R). TYK2 has been implicated in the signaling of IFN-α, IL-6, IL-10, and IL-12.
[0227] Ruxolitinib, a dual JAK1 and JAK2 inhibitor, first gained FDA approval for treatment of myelofibrosis in 2011. While the phase III Controlled Myelofibrosis Study with Oral JAK Inhibitor (COMFORT-I and -II) trials showed that the medication can reduce abnormal splenomegaly and constitutional symptoms, the majority of patients did not achieve a molecular response with reduced mutant allele burden, and improvement in survival was minimal (Harrison, C. et al. N Engl J Med 366, 787-798, (2012); Koppikar, P. et al. Nature 489, 155-159, (2012); Verstovsek, S. et al. N Engl J Med 366, 799-807, (2012)). Thus, there is a significant unmet medical need in the MPN population. Ruxolitinib has essentially no activity (IC.sub.50>20 μM) against cell lines or patient-derived xenografts from patients with CRLF2-rearranged B-ALL, but it can induce remarkable remissions in the rare subset of leukemias with TEL-JAK2 fusions (Roberts, K. G. et al. N Engl J Med 371, 1005-1015, (2014)). A major advance in this field came from the Levine laboratory, which demonstrated that persistent JAK2 signaling in the presence of an ATP-competitive type I JAK2 inhibitor, such as ruxolitinib, may result from heterodimerization and trans-phosphorylation of JAK2 with JAK1 or TYK2 (Koppikar, P. et al. Nature 489, 155-159, (2012)). This helps explain the commonly observed phenomenon that activation loop phosphorylation of JAK2 increases in the presence of type I JAK2 inhibitors. In the setting of JAK2 fusions, obligate homodimerization between TEL domains prevents heterodimerization, and thus these leukemias remain sensitive to type I inhibitors. Of note, CRLF2 signaling involves heterodimerization with the IL7Rα subunit and signaling through JAK2 (bound to CRLF2) and JAK1 (bound to IL7Rα) (Pandey, A. et al. Nat Immunol 1, 59-64 (2000)). Thus, persistent trans-phosphorylation of JAK2 is likely to explain the resistance of these B-ALLs to type I JAK2 inhibitors (Wu, S. C. et al. Cancer Cell 28, 29-41, (2015)).
[0228] Type II inhibitors lock the kinase domain in a closed conformation and therefore should overcome trans-phosphorylation of JAK2 by JAK1 or TYK2. In fact, the Levine lab demonstrated that BBT594, a type II inhibitor initially developed to target BCR-ABL T315I (Andraos, R. et al. Cancer discovery 2, 512-523, (2012)), abrogated persistent JAK2 signaling in myeloid cells refractory to treatment with a type I JAK2 inhibitor (Koppikar, P. et al. Nature 489, 155-159, (2012)). BBT594 has limitations in potency and selectivity for JAK2, and its pharmacokinetic properties preclude in vivo use. Mining the Novartis database for type II kinase inhibitors and cellular screening in JAK2 V617F-mutant SET2 cells to identify compounds that inhibit JAK2 and STAT5 phosphorylation revealed arylamino-benzimidazoles, originally described as RAF kinase inhibitors (Shiels, M. S. et al., Journal of the National Cancer Institute 103, 753-762, (2011)), as a starting point for drug design. Medicinal chemistry efforts led to the development of CHZ868, the first type II JAK2 inhibitor amenable to in vivo testing in transgenic and xenograft mouse models (Wu, S. C. et al., Cancer cell 28, 29-41, (2015)).
