## Abstract

Compositions and methods are disclosed which are useful of the treatment and prevention of proliferative disorders.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A method for the treatment of proliferative diseases, including cancer, which comprises administration to a mammal in need thereof a synergistically, therapeutically effective amount of an anti-CTLA-4 agent with methyl {5-[2-chloro-2-methylphenyl)-1-hydroxy-3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-isoindol-1-yl]-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl}carbamate.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, wherein said administration comprises the sequential administration of (i) one or more cycles of methyl {5-[2-chloro-2-methylphenyl)-1-hydroxy-3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-isoindol-1-yl]-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl}carbamate; followed by the administration of (ii) one or more cycles of said anti-CTLA-4 agent or a combination comprising said methyl {5-[2-chloro-2-methylphenyl)-1-hydroxy-3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-isoindol-1-yl]-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl}carbamate and said anti-CTLA-4 agent.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1, 2)

The method according to claim 1 or claim 2 wherein the anti-CTLA-4 agent(s) is selected from the group consisting of ipilimumab and tremelimumab.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1, 2)

The method according to claim 1 or claim 2, wherein said method is for the treatment of cancerous solid tumors.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1, 2)

The method according to claim 1 or claim 2, wherein said method is for the treatment of refractory tumors.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1, 2)

The method according to claim 1 or claim 2, wherein the anti-CTLA-4 agent is selected from the group consisting of an anti-CTLA-4 antibody, an anti-CTLA-4 adnectin, an anti-CTLA-4 RNAi, single chain anti-CTLA-4 antibody fragments, domain anti-CTLA-4 antibody fragments, and an anti-CTLA-4 antisense molecule.

### Claim 7

A method for the treatment of proliferative diseases, including cancer, which comprises administration to a mammal in need thereof a synergistically, therapeutically effective amount of an anti-CTLA-4 agent with PLX-4032.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

The method according to claim 7, wherein said administration comprises the sequential administration of (i) one or more cycles of a BRAF inhibitor; followed by the administration of (ii) one or more cycles of said anti-CTLA-4 agent or a combination comprising said BRAF inhibitor and said anti-CTLA-4 agent.

### Claim 9 (depends on 7, 8)

The method according to claim 7 or claim 8 wherein the anti-CTLA-4 agent(s) is selected from the group consisting of ipilimumab and tremelimumab.

### Claim 10 (depends on 7, 8)

The method according to claim 7 or claim 8, wherein said method is for the treatment of cancerous solid tumors.

### Claim 11 (depends on 7, 8)

The method according to claim 7 or claim 8, wherein said method is for the treatment of refractory tumors.

### Claim 12 (depends on 7, 8)

The method according to claim 7 or claim 8, wherein the anti-CTLA-4 agent is selected from the group consisting of an anti-CTLA-4 antibody, an anti-CTLA-4 adnectin, an anti-CTLA-4 RNAi, single chain anti-CTLA-4 antibody fragments, domain anti-CTLA-4 antibody fragments, and an anti-CTLA-4 antisense molecule.

### Claim 13 (depends on 7, 8)

The method according to claim 7 or claim 8 wherein the BRAF inhibitor is selected from the group consisting of methyl {5-[2-chloro-2-methylphenyl)-1-hydroxy-3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-isoindol-1-yl]-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl}carbamate; a V600E BRAF inhibitor, and PLX-4032.
