H3B-8800, a novel oral splicing modulator, induces lethality in spliceosome mutant cancers [Nalm-6]


ABSTRACT: Genomic analyses of cancer have identified recurrent point mutations in the RNA splicing factors SF3B1, U2AF1, and SRSF2 that confer an alteration of function. Although cells bearing these mutations are preferentially dependent on wild-type (WT) spliceosome function, clinical means to therapeutically target the spliceosome do not currently exist. Here, we describe an orally available modulator of the SF3b complex, H3B-8800, which potently and selectively kills spliceosome-mutant epithelial and hematologic malignancies. The effects of H3B-8800 are entirely selective for the Sf3b complex, as evidenced by the identification of drug-resistant cells bearing mutations in Sf3b components. Although H3B-8800 modulates RNA splicing mediated by WT or cancer-associated SF3B1 mutants, its preferential effects on spliceosome-mutant cells is due to preferred retention of short, GC-rich introns, which are enriched in genes encoding a substantial number of spliceosome components. These data demonstrate the therapeutic potential of splicing modulation in spliceosome-mutant cancers.
