Dual inhibition of CDK4/Rb and PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathways by ON123300 induces synthetic lethality in mantle cell lymphomas.

ABSTRACT: This study describes the characterization of a novel kinase inhibitor, ON123300, which inhibits CDK4/6 (cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6) and phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase-δ (PI3K-δ) and exhibits potent activity against mantle cell lymphomas (MCLs) both in vitro and in vivo. We examined the effects of PD0332991 and ON123300 on cell cycle progression, modulation of the retinoblastoma (Rb) and PI3K/AKT pathways, and the induction of apoptosis in MCL cell lines and patient-derived samples. When Granta 519 and Z138C cells were incubated with PD0332991 and ON123300, both compounds were equally efficient in their ability to inhibit the phosphorylation of Rb family proteins. However, only ON123300 inhibited the phosphorylation of proteins associated with the PI3K/AKT pathway. Cells treated with P
