ABSTRACT

Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) enzymes play an important role in the cellular response to DNA damage and the inhibition of PARP causes synthetic lethality in homologous recombination (HR)-deficient cancer. Multiple PARP inhibitors have been developed and have shown remarkable clinical benefits. However, treatment-related toxicities, especially the hematologic toxicities, are common and restrict the clinical applications of PARP inhibitors. In this study, we designed the first glucuronide prodrug of PARP inhibitor, TSL-1502, based on a novel and highly potent PARP inhibitor TSL-1502M. TSL-1502M exhibited promising inhibitory activity on PARP1/2, significantly induced DNA double strand breaks, G2/M arrest and apoptosis in HR-deficient cells, selectively inhibited the proliferation of HR-deficient cancer cells and sensitized both HR-deficient and HR-proficient c ancer cells to conventional chemotherapy. Notably, TSL-1502M was superior to olaparib, the first-in-class PARP inhibitor, in all these processes. TSL-1502 had no inhibitory effects on PARP1/2 itself, but could selectively liberate the active drug TSL-1502M in tumor after administration in nude mice. Moreover, TSL-1502 elicited significant more potent inhibitory effects than olaparib in HR-deficient tumors, and sensitized chemotherapy in both HR-deficient and HR-proficient tumors. No severe toxicities were caused by TSL-1502 in this study. Based on the encouraging preclinical antitumor activity and the selective decomposition characteristic of TSL-1502, a clinical phase I study was initiated in China, and an Investigational New Drug (IND) was granted by the US FDA. TSL-1502 could represent a new potential therapeutic choice of PARP inhibitors.
