Inhibition of all-TRANS-retinoic acid metabolism by R116010 induces antitumour activity

Abstract: All-trans-retinoic acid is a potent inhibitor of cell proliferation and inducer of differentiation. However, the clinical use of all-transretinoic acid in the treatment of cancer is significantly hampered by its toxicity and the prompt emergence of resistance, believed to be caused by increased all-trans-retinoic acid metabolism. Inhibitors of all-trans-retinoic acid metabolism may therefore prove valuable in the treatment of cancer. In this study, we characterize R116010 as a new anticancer drug that is a pot… Show more

“…superior to the effects observed with R116010 in human breast T47D cancer cells (Van Heusden et al, 2002). In the latter study, R116010, at a concentration of 1 mM, enhanced the antiproliferative activity of ATRA only by threefold.…”

“…Although a first generation RAMBA, liarozole has been shown to exhibit potent antitumour efficacy against human androgen-independent PCA tumours, such as PC-3ML-B (Stearns et al, 1993), and DU-145 (Smets et al, 1994) and several rat PCA tumours (De Coster et al, 1992;Dijkman et al, 1994); this study appears to be the first report on the antitumour efficacy of RAMBAs against human androgen-dependent LNCaP PCA tumours. Recently, it was demonstrated that a second generation RAMBA, R116010, was able to significantly inhibit the growth of murine TA3-Ha mammary tumours in A/J mice (Van Heusden et al, 2002). Given that our RAMBAs exhibited potent in vitro antiproliferative activities, their in vivo antitumour efficacies are rather disappointing.…”

“…A dose of 66.0 mmol kg À1 day À1 caused a reduction of 92.6% in the mean final tumour weight compared with that of tumour-bearing mice receiving vehicle alone, with no apparent toxicity as there was no change in body weight of the mice. It was recently reported that the growth of murine oestrogen-independent TA3-Ha mammary tumours were significantly inhibited by a non-retinoidal RAMBA, R116010 (Van Huesden et al, 2002). The study demonstrated the antitumour efficacy of R116010 in an oestrogen-independent model of un-established tumours and it is not clear if the agent is effective against oestrogen-dependent breast tumours.…”

“…Similarly, in vitro inhibition of CYP26 leads to an increase in differentiation, decrease in proliferation, cell adhesion and metastatic potential. This has led to the suggestion of a possible chemoprevention role of using specific CYP26 inhibitors (Wouters et al, 1992;Van Heusden et al, 2002). In addition, RA metabolism-blocking agents lead to a reduction of tumour size in mouse xenograft models (Patel et al, 2004).…”
