Discovery and Development of the Aryl O-Sulfamate Pharmacophore for Oncology and Women's Health.
    Journal of medicinal chemistry, 2015, Oct-08, Volume: 58, Issue:19

    In 1994, following work from this laboratory, it was reported that estrone-3-O-sulfamate irreversibly inhibits a new potential hormone-dependent cancer target steroid sulfatase (STS). Subsequent drug discovery projects were initiated to develop the core aryl O-sulfamate pharmacophore that, over some 20 years, have led to steroidal and nonsteroidal drugs in numerous preclinical and clinical trials, with promising results in oncology and women's health, including endometriosis. Drugs have been designed to inhibit STS, e.g., Irosustat, as innovative dual-targeting aromatase-steroid sulfatase inhibitors (DASIs) and as multitargeting agents for hormone-independent tumors, such as the steroidal STX140 and nonsteroidal counterparts, acting inter alia through microtubule disruption. The aryl sulfamate pharmacophore is highly versatile, operating via three distinct mechanisms of action, and imbues attractive pharmaceutical properties. This Perspective gives a personal view of the work leading both to the therapeutic concepts and these drugs, their current status, and how they might develop in the future.

The in vivo properties of STX243: a potent angiogenesis inhibitor in breast cancer.
    British journal of cancer, 2008, Nov-04, Volume: 99, Issue:9

    The steroidal-based drug 2-ethyloestradiol-3,17-O,O-bis-sulphamate (STX243) has been developed as a potent antiangiogenic and antitumour compound. The objective of this study was to ascertain whether STX243 is more active in vivo than the clinically relevant drug 2-methoxyoestradiol (2-MeOE2) and the structurally similar compound 2-MeOE2-3,17-O,O-bis-sulphamate (STX140). The tumour growth inhibition efficacy, antiangiogenic potential and pharmacokinetics of STX243 were examined using four in vivo models. Both STX243 and STX140 were capable of retarding the growth of MDA-MB-231 xenograft tumours (72 and 63%, respectively), whereas no inhibition was observed for animals treated with 2-MeOE2. Further tumour inhibition studies showed that STX243 was also active against MCF-7 paclitaxel-resistant tumours. Using a Matrigel plug-based model, in vivo angiogenesis was restricted with STX243 and STX140 (50 and 72%, respectively, using a 10 mg kg(-1) oral dose), thereby showing the antiangiogenic activity of both compounds. The pharmacokinetics of STX243 were examined at two different doses using adult female rats. The compound was orally bioavailable (31% after a single 10 mg kg(-1) dose) and resistant to metabolism. These results show that STX243 is a potent in vivo drug and could be clinically effective at treating a number of oncological conditions.

2-substituted estradiol bis-sulfamates, multitargeted antitumor agents: synthesis, in vitro SAR, protein crystallography, and in vivo activity.
    Journal of medicinal chemistry, 2006, Dec-28, Volume: 49, Issue:26

    The anticancer activities and SARs of estradiol-17-O-sulfamates and estradiol 3,17-O,O-bis-sulfamates (E2bisMATEs) as steroid sulfatase (STS) inhibitors and antiproliferative agents are discussed. Estradiol 3,17-O,O-bis-sulfamates 20 and 21, in contrast to the 17-O-monosulfamate 11, proved to be excellent STS inhibitors. 2-Substituted E2bisMATEs 21 and 23 additionally exhibited potent antiproliferative activity with mean graph midpoint values of 18-87 nM in the NCI 60-cell-line panel. 21 Exhibited antiangiogenic in vitro and in vivo activity in an early-stage Lewis lung model, and 23 dosed p.o. caused marked growth inhibition in a nude mouse xenograft tumor model. Modeling studies suggest that the E2bisMATEs and 2-MeOE2 share a common mode of binding to tubulin, though COMPARE analysis of activity profiles was negative. 21 was cocrystallized with carbonic anhydrase II, and X-ray crystallography revealed unexpected coordination of the 17-O-sulfamate of 21 to the active site zinc and a probable additional lower affinity binding site. 2-Substituted E2bisMATEs are attractive candidates for further development as multitargeted anticancer agents.

Inhibition of MDA-MB-231 cell cycle progression and cell proliferation by C-2-substituted oestradiol mono- and bis-3-O-sulphamates.
    International journal of cancer, 2005, Oct-20, Volume: 117, Issue:1

    A natural metabolite of oestradiol (E2), 2-methoxyoestradiol (2-MeOE2), exerts both antitumour and antiangiogenic effects. 2-MeOE2 is currently in clinical trials for the treatment of a variety of cancers. We have previously shown that a number of sulphamoylated analogues of 2-MeOE2 possess enhanced potency and bioavailability with respect to 2-MeOE2. In our study, the effects of C-2-substituted E2 derivatives, with sulphamoylation at the C-3 and/or C-17 position, on ERalpha -ve MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells were evaluated. Sulphamoylated derivatives were potent inhibitors of cell proliferation, and these effects were irreversible when compared to growth inhibitory effects induced by 2-MeOE2. Cell cycle analysis suggested that these derivatives caused cells to arrest at the G2-M phase of the cell cycle. Sulphamoylated analogues suppressed the clonogenic potential of MDA-MB-231 cells and also their growth on Matrigel culture substratum. Immunofluorescence studies showed fragmented nuclear bodies and an abnormal microtubule cytoskeleton in cells exposed to one of the potent compounds, 2-MeOE2-bis-sulphamate. In addition, these analogues induced phosphorylation of BCL-2, a protein considered to be the guardian of microtubule integrity. In each of the assays, the sulphamoylated derivatives were at least 10-fold more potent than the parent compound 2-MeOE2. In view of the enhanced potencies associated with sulphamoylated E2 derivatives in ERalpha -ve cells, these analogues should hold considerable therapeutic potential for the treatment of hormone-independent breast cancers.

Growth inhibition of multi-drug-resistant breast cancer cells by 2-methoxyoestradiol-bis-sulphamate and 2-ethyloestradiol-bis-sulphamate.
    The Journal of steroid biochemistry and molecular biology, 2003, Volume: 84, Issue:2-3

    There is currently considerable interest in the use of the endogenous oestrogen metabolite, 2-methoxyoestradiol (2-MeOE2) for the treatment and prevention of breast cancer. We have previously shown that sulphamoylation of 2-MeOE2 and related derivatives greatly enhances their ability to inhibit the proliferation of ER+ and ER- breast cancer cells. In this study, we have compared the abilities of 2-methoxyoestradiol-bis-sulphamate (2-MeOE2bisMATE) and 2-ethyloestradiol-bis-sulphamate (2-EtE2bisMATE) with that of 2-MeOE2 to inhibit the proliferation of breast cancer cells when grown on three different substrata: plastic, collagen I and Matrigel. The human breast cell line MCF-7 was utilised for these studies together with its doxorubicin resistant variant, MCF-7 DOX40 and mitoxantrone resistant variant, MCF-7 MR, as a longitudinal model of in vitro drug resistance. On a plastic substratum all three cell lines were sensitive to the effects of 2-MeOE2bisMATE and 2-EtE2bisMATE whereas MCF-7 cells and the MCF-MR variant cells were resistant to the effects of 2-MeOE2 at 1 microM. The sensitivity of the cell lines to those compounds also remained significant when grown on more physiological substrata. All of the drugs tested arrested cells in the G2/M phase of the cell cycle. The finding that breast cancer cells that are resistant to conventional chemotherapeutic agents remain sensitive to 2-substituted oestrogen sulphamates offers considerable potential for the treatment of women with drug-resistant breast cancer.
