TREATMENT OF METASTASIZED ESTROGEN RECEPTOR POSITIVE BREAST CANCER

Page/Page column 40; 43, (2022/02/05)
A treatment method comprising a small molecule ERα biomodulator that kills therapy- resistant ERα cancer that metastasized to the brain is disclosed. In one embodiment, the small molecule biomodulator has increased therapeutic utility because of an increased ability to kill therapy-resistant breast cancer cells that metastasized to the brain compared to BHPI and other conventional therapies (endocrine therapies, tamoxifen and fulvestrant/TCI). The small molecule biomodulators not only inhibit proliferation of the cancer cells but kills them, which prevents reactivation of tumors years later.

A set of small molecules ERα biomodulators that kill therapy-resistant ERα positive breast, ovarian, and endometrial cancer cells. These small molecules have increased therapeutic potential because of an increased ability to kill therapy-resistant breast cancer cells compared to BHPI and other conventional therapies (endocrine therapies, tamoxifen and fulvestrant/ICI). The new compounds do not only inhibit proliferation of the cancer cells but actually kills them, which prevents reactivation of tumors years later.

A spiroindolinone, (1S,3R,3aR,6aS)-1-benzyl-6′-chloro-5-(4-fluorophenyl)-7′-methylspiro[1,2,3a,6a-tetrahydropyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole-3,3′-1H-indole]-2′,4,6-trione, was previously reported to enhance the antifungal effect of fluconazole against Candida albicans. A diastereomer of this compound was synthesized, along with various analogues. Many of the compounds were shown to enhance the antifungal effect of fluconazole against C. albicans, some with exquisite potency. One spirocyclic piperazine derivative, which we have named synazo-1, was found to enhance the effect of fluconazole with an EC50 value of 300 pM against a susceptible strain of C. albicans and going as low as 2 nM against some resistant strains. Synazo-1 exhibits true synergy with fluconazole, with an FIC index below 0.5 in the strains tested. Synazo-1 exhibited low toxicity in mammalian cells relative to the concentrations required for antifungal synergy. Synergy from stereochemical complexity: An attempt to synthesize analogues of a known spiroindolinone led to a series of diastereomers. One spiroindolinone, termed synazo-1, was shown to exhibit potent activity (300 pM) against C. albicans in the presence of fluconazole. Synazo-1 is a true synergizer and was also highly active against some drug-resistant C. albicans strains.
