Mechanisms of resistance to PARP inhibitors - an evolving challenge in oncology.

ABSTRACT: Poly-adenosine diphosphate ribose polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) lead to synthetic lethality when used in cancers harbouring a BRCA mutation or homologous recombination deficiency. There are now four PARPi approved by the Food and Drug Administration for therapeutic use is ovarian and breast cancer. In addition to this, there is data supporting its use in pancreatic adenocarcinoma and prostate cancer. However, development of resistance to PARPi limits the duration of response. Key mechanisms found to date include: (1) restoration of homologous recombination; (2) changes in PARP1; (3) suppression of non-homologous end joining; (4) replication fork protection; and (5) drug concentration. Gaining a better understanding of resistance mechanisms may guide combination therapies to overcome the resistance and improve the efficacy of PARPi. The purpose of this review is to describe the resistance mechanisms to PARPi and discuss their early detection.

Project description:Multi-drug resistant (MDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa harbor a complex array of β-lactamases and non-enzymatic resistance mechanisms. In this study, the activity of a β-lactam/β-lactam-enhancer, cefepime/zidebactam, and novel β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combinations was determined against an MDR phenotype-enriched, challenge panel of P. aeruginosa (n = 108). Isolates were multi-clonal as they belonged to at least 29 distinct sequence types (STs) and harbored metallo-β-lactamases, serine β-lactamases, penicillin binding protein (PBP) mutations, and other non-enzymatic resistance mechanisms. Ceftazidime/avibactam, ceftolozane/tazobactam, imipenem/relebactam, and cefepime/taniborbactam demonstrated MIC90s of >128 mg/L, while cefepime/zidebactam MIC90 was 16 mg/L. In a neutropenic-murine lung infection model, a cefepime/zidebactam human epithelial-lining fluid-simulated regimen achieved or exceeded a translational end point of 1-log10 kill for the isolates with elevated cefepime/zidebactam MICs (16-32 mg/L), harboring VIM-2 or KPC-2 and alterations in PBP2 and PBP3. In the same model, to assess the impact of zidebactam on the pharmacodynamic (PD) requirement of cefepime, dose-fractionation studies were undertaken employing cefepime-susceptible P. aeruginosa isolates. Administered alone, cefepime required 47%-68% fT >MIC for stasis to ~1 log10 kill effect, while cefepime in the presence of zidebactam required just 8%-16% for >2 log10 kill effect, thus, providing the pharmacokinetic/PD basis for in vivo efficacy of cefepime/zidebactam against isolates with MICs up to 32 mg/L. Unlike β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitors, β-lactam enhancer mechanism-based cefepime/zidebactam shows a potential to transcend the challenge of ever-evolving resistance mechanisms by targeting multiple PBPs and overcoming diverse β-lactamases including carbapenemases in P. aeruginosa.IMPORTANCECompared to other genera of Gram-negative pathogens, Pseudomonas is adept in acquiring complex non-enzymatic and enzymatic resistance mechanisms thus remaining a challenge to even novel antibiotics including recently developed β-lactam and β-lactamase inhibitor combinations. This study shows that the novel β-lactam enhancer approach enables cefepime/zidebactam to overcome both non-enzymatic and enzymatic resistance mechanisms associated with a challenging panel of P. aeruginosa. This study highlights that the β-lactam enhancer mechanism is a promising alternative to the conventional β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor approach in combating ever-evolving MDR P. aeruginosa.
