Combinations of ATR, Chk1 and Wee1 Inhibitors with Olaparib Are Active in Olaparib Resistant Brca1 Proficient and Deficient Murine Ovarian Cells.

ABSTRACT: Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases inhibitor (PARPi) have shown clinical efficacy in ovarian carcinoma, especially in those harboring defects in homologous recombination (HR) repair, including BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutated tumors. There is increasing evidence however that PARPi resistance is common and develops through multiple mechanisms. ID8 F3 (HR proficient) and ID8 Brca1-/- (HR deficient) murine ovarian cells resistant to olaparib, a PARPi, were generated through stepwise drug concentrations in vitro. Both sensitive and resistant cells lines were pharmacologically characterized and the molecular mechanisms underlying olaparib resistance. In ID8, cells with a HR proficient background, olaparib resistance was mainly caused by overexpression of multidrug resistance 1 gene (MDR1), while multiple hete
