Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive subtype characterized by limited treatment options. PANoptosis, a newly identified programmed cell death pathway, offers therapeutic strategies for TNBC. ACY-1215 has demonstrated preliminary efficacy in patients with TNBC and HR/HER2 metastatic breast cancer. However, its moderate target engagement and suboptimal selectivity may limit its clinical efficacy. In this study, a series of potent HDAC6-selective inhibitors bearing a 5-pyrazolyl-benzotriazole scaffold has been developed. Compound TNI-97 demonstrated potent HDAC6 inhibitory activity and great isoform selectivity. TNI-97 elicited PANoptotic cell death in MDA-MB-453 cell models and . TNI-97 exhibited a TGI of 91% in MDA-MB-453 CDX as monotherapy and a TGI of 92% in 4T1 CDA when combined with paclitaxel. The discovery of TNI-97 holds promise for the development of more potent HDAC6 inhibitors as PANoptotic inducers and TNBC drug candidates.
三阴性乳腺癌(TNBC)是一种侵袭性亚型,其特征是治疗选择有限。PANoptosis是一种新发现的程序性细胞死亡途径,为TNBC提供了治疗策略。ACY-1215已在TNBC和HR/HER2转移性乳腺癌患者中显示出初步疗效。然而,其适度的靶点结合和次优的选择性可能会限制其临床疗效。在本研究中,开发了一系列带有5-吡唑基-苯并三唑支架的强效HDAC6选择性抑制剂。化合物TNI-97表现出强效的HDAC6抑制活性和良好的亚型选择性。TNI-97在MDA-MB-453细胞模型中引发PANoptotic细胞死亡。TNI-97作为单一疗法在MDA-MB-453 CDX中的TGI为91%,与紫杉醇联合使用时在4T1 CDA中的TGI为92%。TNI-97的发现为开发更有效的HDAC6抑制剂作为PANoptotic诱导剂和TNBC候选药物带来了希望。
