A small-molecule compound D6 overcomes EGFR-T790M-mediated resistance in non-small cell lung cancer.


ABSTRACT: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a deadly and highly prevalent malignancy. Targeting activated-EGFR mutations in NSCLC via EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) initially achieves a profound therapeutic response, but resistance frequently evolves, reducing treatment options. Here, we present a small-molecule compound D6 which selectively inhibits tumor cell growth and migration in NSCLC cells with EGFR-TKI-resistant T790M-EGFR-activated mutations (T790M-EGFR-AM), e.g., L858R/T790M, 19Del/T790M and L858R/T790M/C797S. D6 mimics a natural product isolated from the roots of Codonopsis pilosula and selectively competes with T790M-EGFR-AM to bind to HSP90, thus facilitating the ubiquitination dependent proteasomal degradation of T790M-EGFR-AM. By contrast, D6 has little impact on typical HSP90 chaperone activity, suggesting low systemic toxicity. Promisingly, D6 combined with erlotinib or osimertinib shows efficacy in overcoming the EGFR-TKIs-resistance in NSCLCs. Our study raises an alternative strategy to overcome T790M-mediated EGFR-TKI resistance in NSCLC via targeting the protein-protein interaction of HSP90 and T790M-EGFR by intervention with D6.
