Moreover, the identification of fork protection as a key mechanism of resistance to chemo- and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor therapy in ovarian cancer further increases the priority that should be accorded to the development of strategies targeting replicative stress. Small molecule inhibitors designed to target the DNA damage sensors, such as inhibitors of ataxia telangiectasia-mutated ERK5-IN-1 (ATM), ATR, CHK1 and WEE1, impair easy cell cycle modulation and disrupt efficient DNA repair, or a combination of the above, have exhibited interesting monotherapy and combinatorial activity, including the potential to reverse drug resistance and have joined developmental pipelines. Yet unresolved challenges lie in balancing the toxicity profile of these drugs in order ERK5-IN-1 to achieve a suitable therapeutic index while maintaining clinical efficacy, and selective biomarkers are urgently required. Here we describe the premise for targeting of replicative stress in gynecological cancers and discuss the clinical advancement of this strategy. increases cyclin E levels leading to aberrant firing of the replication origin. Increased activity has links with defective reduction/oxidation balance in cells, and an accumulation of reactive oxygen species which induce replicative stress by the formation of oxidized nucleotides such as 8-oxoguanine, leading to mismatched base pairing.7 Similarly, mutations in gatekeeper tumor suppressor genes that regulate cell cycle checkpoints, such as in and (20%), loss (15%), as well as mutations in (2%) and (2%) are not infrequent.9 Furthermore, is ubiquitously mutated in high grade serous carcinoma, increasing their reliance around the G2/M checkpoint. Targeting cell cycle checkpoints through inhibition of the ATRCCHK1CWEE1 axis may therefore induce synthetic lethality in high grade serous carcinoma cells with oncogenic stress or which harbor intrinsic deficiencies in DNA repair. The increasing number of approvals for PARP inhibitors (PARPis) in advanced ovarian cancer therapy indicates that PARPis are steadily shifting treatment paradigms, heralding an increasing proportion of patients who are at risk of PARPi-resistant disease. PARPi resistance occurs through several independent mechanisms that have been grouped into three categories: (1) mitigation of replication stress by replication fork protection, such as through the loss of mixed-lineage leukemia protein 3/4 (MLL3/4) complex protein Pax2 transactivation domain name interacting protein (PTIP) which prevents MRE11 from being recruited to stalled forks;10 (2) restoration of homologous recombination activity; and (3) processes that do not fall under any single DNA repair pathway but alter the response to PARPi, such as increased drug efflux, loss of PARP1 expression, and down-regulation of PARP trapping capacity.11 In PARPi-resistant but are sequentially bypassed and cells become increasingly dependent on ATR for recruitment of RAD51 onto double-stranded breaks and stalled forks.12 13 Inhibition of ATR using the ATR inhibitor (ATRi) VE-821 in olaparib-resistant amplification, and mutation. overexpression prompts early S-phase entry and increases genomic instability, increasing reliance on homologous recombination DNA repair. mutations occur in ~50% of ovarian and endometrial clear cell carcinoma and ~30% of endometrial cancers of endometrioid and carcinosarcoma subtype. After DNA damage, AT-rich interacting domain name containing protein 1A (ARID1A) assists in non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) DNA repair by recruiting x-ray repair cross-complementing 5 and 6 (XRCC5/6) to sites of double-stranded breaks, acts as a binding partner of ATR, and sustains DNA damage signaling in response to double-stranded breaks.16 Using genetic screens, Williamson identified as a synthetic lethal partner for ATR inhibition and showed susceptibility to ATRi in a variety of histologically diverse loss Ceralasertib + olaparib Recruitment ongoingN/AATARI;amplification, defined by amplification 7, or found on approved next-generation tumor sequencing panels Adavosertib monotherapy (D1C5 and 8C12), every 21 days Recruitment ongoingN/A”type”:”clinical-trial”,”attrs”:”text”:”NCT03253679″,”term_id”:”NCT03253679″NCT03253679II Recurrent ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer, who have progressed during PARP inhibition Randomized, non-comparative study Adavosertib (daily D1C5 and 8C12) every 21 days (Arm A) or adavosertib (daily D1C3 and 8C10) + olaparib (twice daily D1C21) every 21 days (Arm B) Recruitment ongoingN/A”type”:”clinical-trial”,”attrs”:”text”:”NCT03579316″,”term_id”:”NCT03579316″NCT03579316II Advanced refractory solid tumors harboring mutations in or both Olaparib + adavosertib Active, not recruitingN/AOLAPCO;mutation Prexasertib monotherapy (105?mg/m2 D1 and 15), every 28 days Recruitment ongoingN/A”type”:”clinical-trial”,”attrs”:”text”:”NCT02203513″,”term_id”:”NCT02203513″NCT02203513II Advanced solid tumors with either amplification, loss or mutation; homologous recombination repair deficiency or CCNE1 amplification Prexasertib monotherapy (105?mg/m2 D1 and 15), every 28 days.
