Preclinical Therapeutic Assessment of a New Chemotherapeutics [Dichloro(4,4'-Bis(2,2,3,3-Tetrafluoropropoxy) Methyl)-2,2'-Bipryridine) Platinum] in an Orthotopic Patient-Derived Xenograft Model of Triple-Negative Breast Cancers.

ABSTRACT: Cisplatin is one of the most common therapeutics used in treatments of several types of cancers. To enhance cisplatin lipophilicity and reduce resistance and side effects, a polyfluorinated bipyridine-modified cisplatin analogue, dichloro[4,4'-bis(2,2,3,3-tetrafluoropropoxy)methyl)-2,2'-bipryridine] platinum (TFBPC), was synthesized and therapeutic assessments were performed. TFBPC displayed superior effects in inhibiting the proliferation of several cisplatin-resistant human cancer cell lines, including MDA-MB-231 breast cancers, COLO205 colon cancers and SK-OV-3 ovarian cancers. TFBPC bound to DNA and formed DNA crosslinks that resulted in DNA degradation, triggering the cell death program through the PARP/Bax/Bcl-2 apoptosis and LC3-related autophagy pathway. Moreover, TFBPC significant
