Sensitizing thermochemotherapy with a PARP1-inhibitor

Abstract: Cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (cisplatin, cDDP) is an effective chemotherapeutic agent that induces DNA double strand breaks (DSBs), primarily in replicating cells. Generally, such DSBs can be repaired by the classical or backup non-homologous end joining (c-NHEJ/b-NHEJ) or homologous recombination (HR). Therefore, inhibiting these pathways in cancer cells should enhance the efficiency of cDDP treatments. Indeed, inhibition of HR by hyperthermia (HT) sensitizes cancer cells to cDDP and in the Netherlands th… Show more

“…This provides a possible explanation for hyperthermia's sensitising effects towards irradiation and chemotherapeutic compounds that induce double strand breaks, such as cisplatin [34,35] and Trabectedin [36]. Moreover, attenuation of HR by hyperthermia sensitises cultured cells and mouse tumours to PARPinhibitors [19,[37][38][39], a class of therapeutics that specifically target cells deficient in HR. PARP-inhibitors are currently available as personalised treatment to patients with ovarian cancer that harbour a BRCA-mutation and have relapsed after initial platinum-containing treatment [27].…”

“…To test this possibility, we took biopsies (designated biopsy A and B) from two macroscopically similar parts of the same cervical tumour during an examination under anaesthesia, and ex vivo incubated half of each biopsy at 37 C and the other half at 42 C. In both sample-sets, we observed BRCA2 degradation to an equal extent upon heat. However, the initial BRCA2-levels at 37 C were very different ( Figure 5). Theoretically, if biopsy B would have been the biopsy taken before hyperthermia in vivo, and if biopsy A was taken after hyperthermia, we would have found no differences in BRCA2-levels, while BRCA2 was in fact degraded by the heat treatment ( Figure 5).…”

“…Especially, the DNA damage repair pathway is tumor suppressive in normal cells, but it induces resistance of cancer cells to genotoxic anti-cancer therapies [23,24]. Based on these paradoxical roles of the molecules of the DNA damage repair pathway, inhibitors of this pathway, such as Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors, have been developed as anticancer agents [11,21]. Therefore, when based on the role of SIRT6 in the DNA damage repair pathway [1,8,25], SIRT6 might be an inducer of therapeutic resistance [26].…”

“…BER as one of the DNA repair mechanisms, PARP1 may be one of the major genes involved in tumor cell recurrence and metastasis [10]. In vitro and in vivo studies have suggested that inhibition of PARP1 can reduce tumor cell repair function, thereby enhancing the therapeutic effect of radiotherapy and chemotherapy on tumors [11,12]. DSBR is the most common but most severe type of DNA damage in eukaryotic cells, and is mainly repaired in mammals through non-homologous end joining (NHEJ).…”
