Bortezomib therapy has proven successful for the treatment of relapsed and/or refractory multiple myeloma (MM); however, prolonged treatment is associated with toxicity and development of drug resistance. Here, we show that the novel proteasome inhibitor NPI-0052 induces apoptosis in MM cells resistant to conventional and Bortezomib therapies. NPI-0052 is distinct from Bortezomib in its chemical structure, effects on proteasome activities, mechanisms of action, and toxicity profile against normal cells. Moreover, NPI-0052 is orally bioactive. In animal tumor model studies, NPI-0052 is well tolerated and prolongs survival, with significantly reduced tumor recurrence. Combining NPI-0052 and Bortezomib induces synergistic anti-MM activity. Our study therefore provides the rationale for clinical protocols evaluating NPI-0052, alone and together with Bortezomib, to improve patient outcome in MM.
硼替佐米治疗已被证明对复发和/或难治性多发性骨髓瘤(MM)的治疗有效;然而,长期治疗会产生毒性并导致耐药性的产生。在此,我们表明新型蛋白酶体抑制剂NPI-0052可诱导对传统疗法和硼替佐米治疗耐药的MM细胞发生凋亡。NPI-0052在化学结构、对蛋白酶体活性的影响、作用机制以及对正常细胞的毒性方面与硼替佐米不同。此外,NPI-0052具有口服生物活性。在动物肿瘤模型研究中,NPI-0052耐受性良好且可延长生存期,显著降低肿瘤复发率。联合使用NPI-0052和硼替佐米可诱导协同抗MM活性。因此,我们的研究为评估单独使用NPI-0052以及将其与硼替佐米联合使用以改善MM患者预后的临床方案提供了理论依据。
