Anti-tumor activity of a novel proteasome inhibitor D395 against multiple myeloma and its lower cardiotoxicity compared with carfilzomib.

ABSTRACT: Carfilzomib, a second-generation proteasome inhibitor, has significantly improved the survival rate of multiple myeloma (MM) patients, but its clinical application is still restricted by drug resistance and cardiotoxicity. Here, we identified a novel proteasome inhibitor, D395, and assessed its efficacy in treating MM as well as its cardiotoxicity at the preclinical level. The activities of purified and intracellular proteasomes were measured to determine the effect of D395 on the proteasome. CCK-8 and flow cytometry experiments were designed to evaluate the effects of D395 on cell growth and apoptosis. The effects of D395 and carfilzomib on serum enzyme activity, echocardiography features, cardiomyocyte morphology, and hERG channels were also compared. In our study, D395 was highly cytotoxic to MM cell lines and primary MM cells but not normal cells, and it was well tolerated in vivo. Similar to carfilzomib, D395 inhibited osteoclast differentiation in a dose-dependent manner. In particular, D395 exhibited lower cardiotoxicity than carfilzomib in all experiments. In conclusion, D395 is a novel irreversible proteasome inhibitor that has remarkable anti-MM activity and mild cardiotoxicity in vitro and in vivo.

Secondary proteasome inhibitor carfilzomib resistant myeloma cell lines

Project description:Modulation of the activity of the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway with the proteasome inhibitor (PI) is an established component of therapy for plasma cell disorders. However, resistance emerges and the mechanism is incompletely understood. We generated carfilzomib-resistant (CR) myeloma cell lines by exposing drug-naive ANBL-6, KAS-6/1, U266, and OPM-2 cells to increasing concentrations of carfilzomib and then performed gene expression profiling (GEP) to identify prominent changes compared to their vehicle-treated counterparts, followed by exploration of the mechanism(s) of proteasome inhibitor resistance.

Potent activity of carfilzomib, a novel, irreversible inhibitor of the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, against preclinical models of multiple myeloma.

Project description:The proteasome has emerged as an important target for cancer therapy with the approval of bortezomib, a first-in-class, reversible proteasome inhibitor, for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (MM). However, many patients have disease that does not respond to bortezomib, whereas others develop resistance, suggesting the need for other inhibitors with enhanced activity. We therefore evaluated a novel, irreversible, epoxomicin-related proteasome inhibitor, carfilzomib. In models of MM, this agent potently bound and specifically inhibited the chymotrypsin-like proteasome and immunoproteasome activities, resulting in accumulation of ubiquitinated substrates. Carfilzomib induced a dose- and time-dependent inhibition of proliferation, ultimately leading to apoptosis. Programmed cell death was associated with activation of c-Jun-N-terminal kinase, mitochondrial membrane depolarization, release of cytochrome c, and activation of both intrinsic and extrinsic caspase pathways. This agent also inhibited proliferation and activated apoptosis in patient-derived MM cells and neoplastic cells from patients with other hematologic malignancies. Importantly, carfilzomib showed increased efficacy compared with bortezomib and was active against bortezomib-resistant MM cell lines and samples from patients with clinical bortezomib resistance. Carfilzomib also overcame resistance to other conventional agents and acted synergistically with dexamethasone to enhance cell death. Taken together, these data provide a rationale for the clinical evaluation of carfilzomib in MM.

Glutaminase inhibitor CB-839 synergizes with carfilzomib in resistant multiple myeloma cells.

Project description:Curative responses in the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM) are limited by the emergence of therapeutic resistance. To address this problem, we set out to identify druggable mechanisms that convey resistance to proteasome inhibitors (PIs; e.g., bortezomib), which are cornerstone agents in the treatment of MM. In isogenic pairs of PI sensitive and resistant cells, we observed stark differences in cellular bioenergetics between the divergent phenotypes. PI resistant cells exhibited increased mitochondrial respiration driven by glutamine as the principle fuel source. To target glutamine-induced respiration in PI resistant cells, we utilized the glutaminase-1 inhibitor, CB-839. CB-839 inhibited mitochondrial respiration and was more cytotoxic in PI resistant cells as a single agent. Furthermore, we found that CB-839 synergistically enhanced the activity of multiple PIs with the most dramatic synergy being observed with carfilzomib (Crflz), which was confirmed in a panel of genetically diverse PI sensitive and resistant MM cells. Mechanistically, CB-839 enhanced Crflz-induced ER stress and apoptosis, characterized by a robust induction of ATF4 and CHOP and the activation of caspases. Our findings suggest that the acquisition of PI resistance involves adaptations in cellular bioenergetics, supporting the combination of CB-839 with Crflz for the treatment of refractory MM.

Specific cell-permeable inhibitor of proteasome trypsin-like sites selectively sensitizes myeloma cells to bortezomib and carfilzomib.

Project description:Proteasomes degrade the majority of proteins in mammalian cells, are involved in the regulation of multiple physiological functions, and are established targets of anticancer drugs. The proteasome has three types of active sites. Chymotrypsin-like sites are the most important for protein breakdown and have long been considered the only suitable targets for antineoplastic drugs; however, our recent work demonstrated that inhibitors of caspase-like sites sensitize malignant cells to inhibitors of the chymotrypsin-like sites. Here, we describe the development of specific cell-permeable inhibitors and an activity-based probe of the trypsin-like sites. These compounds selectively sensitize multiple myeloma cells to inhibitors of the chymotrypsin-like sites, including antimyeloma agents bortezomib and carfilzomib. Thus, trypsin-like sites are cotargets for anticancers drugs. Together with inhibitors of chymotrypsin- and caspase-like sites developed earlier, we provide the scientific community with a complete set of tools to separately modulate proteasome active sites in living cells.

The Mitochondrial Protease LonP1 Promotes Proteasome Inhibitor Resistance in Multiple Myeloma.

Project description:Multiple myeloma and its precursor plasma cell dyscrasias affect 3% of the elderly population in the US. Proteasome inhibitors are an essential part of several standard drug combinations used to treat this incurable cancer. These drugs interfere with the main pathway of protein degradation and lead to the accumulation of damaged proteins inside cells. Despite promising initial responses, multiple myeloma cells eventually become drug resistant in most patients. The biology behind relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma is complex and poorly understood. Several studies provide evidence that in addition to the proteasome, mitochondrial proteases can also contribute to protein quality control outside of mitochondria. We therefore hypothesized that mitochondrial proteases might counterbalance protein degradation in cancer cells treated with proteasome inhibitors. Using clinical and experimental data, we found that overexpression of the mitochondrial matrix protease LonP1 (Lon Peptidase 1) reduces the efficacy of proteasome inhibitors. Some proteasome inhibitors partially crossinhibit LonP1. However, we show that the resistance effect of LonP1 also occurs when using drugs that do not block this protease, suggesting that LonP1 can compensate for loss of proteasome activity. These results indicate that targeting both the proteasome and mitochondrial proteases such as LonP1 could be beneficial for treatment of multiple myeloma.

Proteasome inhibitor-induced coronary vasospasm in multiple myeloma: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundCoronary vasospasm is an increasingly recognized cause of myocardial infarction or myocardial ischaemia in patients without obstructive coronary artery disease. A thorough medication review may identify drugs or toxins that could trigger coronary vasospasm. This case provides mechanistic insight into the off-target effect of proteasome inhibition leading to coronary vasospasm in a patient referred with chest pain consistent with typical angina.Case summaryA 72-year-old lady presented with anginal chest pain at rest with electrocardiogram evidence of myocardial ischaemia who was referred for invasive coronary angiography. This demonstrated minor coronary disease without an obstructive lesion. Vasoreactivity testing revealed diffuse coronary vasospasm of the left anterior descending artery. Carfilzomib was identified as the trigger for coronary vasospasm. Symptoms resolved without recurrence after appropriate treatment including cessation of the triggering agent.ConclusionCoronary spasm is a rare but important adverse reaction to proteasome inhibitors. This case supports the clinical utility of invasive coronary vasoreactivity testing in patients with ischaemia with no obstructive coronary artery disease.

Carfilzomib-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension in multiple myeloma.

Project description:Drug-induced pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is constantly evolving as new drugs are developed. Carfilzomib is a recently approved therapy for relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma. While it has been associated with cardiovascular adverse events, such as ischemic heart disease and heart failure, PAH has not been a well-described side effect. We present two patients who developed PAH associated with initiation of carfilzomib. They both initially presented with severe dyspnea, had elevated right ventricular systolic pressure on transthoracic echocardiography and ultimately underwent right heart catheterization. With discontinuation of carfilzomib, both patients had improvement in hemodynamics. However, one patient required initiation of PAH-targeted therapies and has had worsening right ventricular function again despite permanent discontinuation of carfilzomib. It is important to recognize the association between carfilzomib and PAH. Echocardiography can be an important initial screening tool. PAH from carfilzomib therapy may be reversible, especially if diagnosed early; however, extended follow-up is essential.

Once weekly selinexor, carfilzomib and dexamethasone in carfilzomib non-refractory multiple myeloma patients

Project description:Background Proteasome inhibitors (PIs), including carfilzomib, potentiate the activity of selinexor, a novel, first-in-class, oral selective inhibitor of nuclear export (SINE) compound, in preclinical models of multiple myeloma (MM). Methods The safety, efficacy, maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of selinexor (80 or 100 mg) + carfilzomib (56 or 70 mg/m2) + dexamethasone (40 mg) (XKd) once weekly (QW) was evaluated in patients with relapsed refractory MM (RRMM) not refractory to carfilzomib. Results Thirty-two patients, median prior therapies 4 (range, 1–8), were enrolled. MM was triple-class refractory in 38% of patients and 53% of patients had high-risk cytogenetics del(17p), t(4;14), t(14;16) and/or gain 1q. Common treatment-related adverse events (all/Grade 3) were thrombocytopenia 72%/47% (G3 and G4), nausea 72%/6%, anaemia 53%/19% and fatigue 53%/9%, all expected and manageable with supportive care and dose modifications. MTD and RP2D were identified as selinexor 80 mg, carfilzomib 56 mg/m2, and dexamethasone 40 mg, all QW. The overall response rate was 78% including 14 (44%) ≥ very good partial responses. Median progression-free survival was 15 months. Conclusions Weekly XKd is highly effective and well-tolerated. These data support further investigation of XKd in patients with MM.

Anti-tumor activity against multiple myeloma by combination of KW-2478, an Hsp90 inhibitor, with bortezomib.

Project description:Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is a promising target for anti-tumor therapy. We previously reported the anti-tumor activity of a novel Hsp90 inhibitor, KW-2478, in multiple myeloma (MM) as a single agent. In this study, we examined the combinational effect of KW-2478 and bortezomib, a proteasome inhibitor, in vitro and in vivo. In vitro, KW-2478 enhanced bortezomib-induced cell growth inhibition, both in MM cell lines and primary patient MM cells. The combination of KW-2478 and bortezomib also induced caspase activation in MM cell lines. Interestingly, the combination synergistically enhanced the expression of Hsp70B, a homolog of Hsp70, in human MM cells and peripheral blood mononuclear cells, indicating Hsp70B could be a surrogate biomarker for the combination of Hsp90 and proteasome inhibitors. In vivo, the combination of KW-2478 with bortezomib showed synergistic anti-tumor activity without significant body weight loss in a subcutaneously inoculated human myeloma model. Furthermore, the combination also showed synergistic reduction of tumor burden in bone marrow in an orthotopic myeloma model. Our results strongly suggest that combination of KW-2478 with bortezomib could exhibit enhanced anti-tumor activity against human myeloma.

Targeted treatments for multiple myeloma: specific role of carfilzomib.

Project description:Carfilzomib is a selective, irreversible proteasome inhibitor, initially approved in the US in 2012 as single-agent therapy for relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma. Numerous Phase II studies have evaluated carfilzomib in the relapsed and refractory as well as the newly diagnosed setting, and Phase III studies are entering their final analysis. Data continue to grow to support its use as both single-agent therapy and in combination with immunomodulatory and other novel agents. This review discusses the role of carfilzomib in the treatment of multiple myeloma. Its mechanism of action, pharmacokinetics, and role in clinical management will be reviewed.
