Identification of novel and potent PROTACs targeting FAK for non-small cell lung cancer: Design, synthesis, and biological study.
The intracellular non-receptor tyrosine protein kinase Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is a key signalling regulator, which mediates tumor survival, invasion, metastasis, and angiogenesis through its kinase catalytic functions and non-kinase scaffolding functions. Previous efforts have clarified that it is crucial to address both FAK kinase and scaffolding functions instead of just inhibiting FAK kinase activity because it may be insufficient to completely block FAK signaling. Proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) technology is a method of targeting a specific protein and inducing its degradation in the cell, which can simultaneously eliminate both kinase-dependent enzymatic functions and scaffolding functions. In current study, we designed and synthesized a series of novel FAK PROTACs and the optimal PROTAC B5 exhibited potent FAK affinity with an IC Topics: Antineoplastic Agents; Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung; Drug Design; Focal Adhesion Protein-Tyrosine Kinases; Humans; Lung Neoplasms; Proteolysis | 2022 |
[Therapeutic effect of IGF-1R-targeting inhibitor (TAE226) on malignant pleural effusion in nude mice].
To study the therapeutic effect of IGF-1R inhibitor TAE226 on malignant pleural effusion (MPE) in nude mice.. Human lung carcinoma A549 cells were injected into the pleural cavity of nude mice to establish MPE model. The mice were randomly divided into model group and treatment group, and were orally administered with distilled water and TAE226 (20 mg/kg) in the same volume, respectively. The volume of pleural effusion and tumor weight of the two groups were observed. HE staining was used to reveal the histological changes and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the IGF-1R protein expression. IGF-1R mRNA level in the tumor tissue was determined by RT-PCR. Microvessel density (MVD) and cell proliferation index (PI) were assessed by immunohistochemical analysis. The protein expression levels of IGF-1R, p-IGF-1R, PI3K and p-PI3K in the tumor tissue were determined by Western blotting.. The volumes of pleural effusion were (241.4±89.7) μl and (121.7±78.8) μl in the model and treatment groups, respectively (P<0.05). The tumor weight of treatment group was (316.7±186.3) mg, significantly lower than that of the model group (671.4±281.4) mg (P<0.05). RT-PCR analysis showed that IGF-1R mRNA level was 0.914±0.029 in the treatment group, significantly lower than that of the model group (1.152±0.037, P<0.01). The ELISA data revealed that IGF-1R protein expression level of the model group was significantly higher than that of the treatment group [(41.0±4.7) μg/L vs. (24.0±3.1) μg/L, P<0.01]. Immunohistochemical analysis showed that there were significant differences between MVD and PI in the model and treatment groups [MVD, 34.75±3.49 vs. 22.25±3.63; PI, (75.25±7.15)% vs. (45.75±5.12)%; P<0.01 for both). Western blot data showed that IGF-1R and PI3K protein expression levels were not significantly different between the model and treatment groups (1.03±0.33 vs. 0.98±0.37 and 1.05±0.28 vs. 0.98±0.19), respectively (P>0.05), but p-IGF-1R and p-PI3K protein expression levels had significant differences between the two groups (1.08±0.10 vs. 0.51±0.08 and 1.12±0.09 vs. 0.86±0.09), respectively (P<0.01 for both).. The IGF-1R inhibitor can effectively inhibit the formation of malignant pleural effusion. Its mechanism may be related to the suppression of tumor cell proliferation, invasion and angiogenesis through inhibition of PI3K signaling. TAE226 treatment may be a potential therapeutic regimen of treating malignant pleural effusion.

TAE226, a Bis-Anilino Pyrimidine Compound, Inhibits the EGFR-Mutant Kinase Including T790M Mutant to Show Anti-Tumor Effect on EGFR-Mutant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Cells.
TAE226, a bis-anilino pyrimidine compound, has been developed as an inhibitor of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and insulin-like growth factor-I receptor (IGF-IR). In this study, we investigated the effect of TAE226 on non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), especially focusing on the EGFR mutational status. TAE226 was more effective against cells with mutant EGFR, including the T790M mutant, than against cells with wild-type one. TAE226 preferentially inhibited phospho-EGFR and its downstream signaling mediators in the cells with mutant EGFR than in those with wild-type one. Phosphorylation of FAK and IGF-IR was not inhibited at the concentration at which the proliferation of EGFR-mutant cells was inhibited. Results of the in vitro binding assay indicated significant differences in the affinity for TAE226 between the wild-type and L858R (or delE746_A750) mutant, and the reduced affinity of ATP to the L858R (or delE746_A750) mutant resulted in good responsiveness of the L858R (or delE746_A750) mutant cells to TAE226. Of interest, the L858R/T790M or delE746_A750/T790M mutant enhanced the binding affinity for TAE226 compared with the L858R or delE746_A750 mutant, resulting in the effectiveness of TAE226 against T790M mutant cells despite the T790M mutation restoring the ATP affinity for the mutant EGFR close to that for the wild-type. TAE226 also showed higher affinity of about 15-fold for the L858R/T790M mutant than for the wild-type one by kinetic interaction analysis. The anti-tumor effect against EGFR-mutant tumors including T790M mutation was confirmed in mouse models without any significant toxicity. In summary, we showed that TAE226 inhibited the activation of mutant EGFR and exhibited anti-proliferative activity against NSCLCs carrying EGFR mutations, including T790M mutation.

3D cell cultures of human head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cells are radiosensitized by the focal adhesion kinase inhibitor TAE226.
Focal adhesion kinase (FAK), a main player in integrin signaling and survival, is frequently overexpressed in human cancers and therefore postulated as potential target in cancer therapy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the radiosensitizing potential of the FAK inhibitor TAE226 in three-dimensional (3D) tumor cell cultures.. Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cells (FaDu, UT-SCC15, UT-SCC45), lung cancer cells (A549), colorectal carcinoma cells (DLD-1, HCT-116) and pancreatic tumor cells (MiaPaCa2, Panc1) were treated with different concentrations of TAE226 (0-1mum; 1 or 24h) without or in combination with irradiation (0-6Gy, X-ray, single dose). Subsequently, 3D clonogenic survival assays (laminin-rich extracellular matrix) and Western blotting (expression/phosphorylation, e.g. FAK, Akt, ERK1/2) were performed.. All investigated 3D cell cultures showed a dose-dependent reduction in clonogenic survival by TAE226. Intriguingly, TAE226 only significantly radiosensitized 3D HNSCC cell cultures accompanied by a pronounced dephosphorylation of FAK, Akt and ERK1/2.. Our data demonstrate TAE226 as potent FAK inhibitor that enhances the cellular radiosensitivity particularly of HNSCC cells grown in a 3D cell culture model. Future in vitro and in vivo investigations will clarify, to which extent this approach might be clinically relevant for radiotherapy of HNSCC.
