Discovery of dual-targeted molecules based on Olaparib and Rigosertib for triple-negative breast cancer with wild-type BRCA
PARP inhibitors (PARPis) demonstrate significant potential efficacy in the clinical treatment of BRCA-mutated triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). However, a majority of patients with TNBC do not possess BRCA mutations, and therefore cannot benefit from PARPis. Previous studies on multi-targeted molecules derived from PARPis or disruptors of RAF-RAF pathway have offered an alternative approach to develop novel anti-TNBC agents. Hence, to broaden the application of PARP inhibitors for TNBC patients with wild-type BRCA, a series of dual-targeted molecules were constructed via integrating the key pharmacophores of Olaparib (Ola) and Rigosertib into a single entity. Subsequent studies exhibited that the resulting compounds 13a – 14c obtained potential anti-proliferative activity against BRCA-defected or wild-type TNBC cells. Among them, an optimal compound 13b showed good inhibitory activity toward PARP-1, displayed approximately 34-fold higher inhibitory activity than that of Ola in MDA-MB-231 cells, and exerted multi-functional mechanisms to induce apoptosis. Moreover, 13b displayed superior antitumor efficacy (TGI, 61.3 %) than the single administration of Ola (TGI, 38.5 %), 11b (TGI, 51.8 %) or even their combined administration (TGI, 56.7 %), but did not show significant systematic toxicity. These findings suggest that 13b may serve as a potential candidate for BRCA wild-type TNBC.
