Poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase inhibition in pancreatic cancer

Abstract: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a lethal disease with limited treatment options. Recently, the poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase inhibitor (PARPi) olaparib has been approved for maintenance therapy after successful platinum‐based chemotherapy in patients with germline mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2. Approval was based on the POLO study that has shown a significant improvement in progression‐free survival for patients with metastatic PDAC after at least 4 months of platinum‐based chemotherapy. Hopefully, thi… Show more

“…Due to the dreadful aggressiveness and the difficulty of early detection, PaCa is one of the malignant tumors with the worst prognosis and accounts for almost as many deaths as new cases [2]. In contrast to most other cancer types, improvement of the therapeutic options and prognosis over the last decades has been quietly limited [3,4].…”

“…Phase II precision oncology trials are now assessing whether single agent Olaparib therapy is effective in advanced PDAC patients that do not harbour germline BRCA1/2 mutations (NCT02677038). In addition, several early phase clinical trials are testing whether PARP inhibitors in combination with either standard chemotherapy (NCT03337087; NCT04228601) or other targeted therapies (NCT03842228; NCT04005690; NCT03682289) are effective in treating germline and/or somatic HRD in advanced PDAC ( Singh et al, 2021 ).…”

“…Notably, the PDE sub-fractions induced apoptosis in PC-3 cells, as indicated by increase in sub-G1 peaks in flow cytometry histograms; with dichloromethane (DCM) sub-fraction achieving this by increasing the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio by 650% compared to negative control, and cleaving poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). Overexpression of PARP has been shown to contribute to the promotion of carcinogenesis and survival of cancer cells, hence, its inhibition is a major current target of managing ovarian [ 65 ], prostate, breast [ 66 ], renal [ 67 ], pancreatic [ 68 ], and other cancers. Hence, phytochemicals responsible for the above bioactivity by PDE sub-fractions should be isolated via activity-guided fractionation and should be further explored as broad-spectrum anticancer entities.…”
