Article Abstract

Given the clinical potential of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARP) imaging for the detection and stratification of various cancers, the development of novel PARP imaging probes with improved pharmacological profiles over established PARP imaging agents is warranted. Here, we present a novel F-labeled PARP radiotracer based on the clinically superior PARP inhibitor talazoparib. An automated radiosynthesis of [F]talazoparib (RCY: 13 ± 3.4%; = 4) was achieved using a "design of experiments" (DoE) optimized copper-mediated radiofluorination reaction. The chiral product was isolated from the reaction mixture using 2D reversed-phase/chiral radio-HPLC (>99% ee). (8,9)-[F]Talazoparib demonstrated PARP binding in HCC1937 cells and showed an excellent tumor-to-blood ratio in xenograft-bearing mice (10.2 ± 1.5). Additionally, a favorable pharmacological profile in terms of excretion, metabolism, and target engagement was observed. This synthesis of [F]talazoparib exemplifies how DoE can enable the radiosyntheses of synthetically challenging radiolabeled compounds of high interest to the imaging community.

In this study, we modified ONS-donor tridentate salicylaldimine main ligand-based Pt(II) complexes with monosaccharide functionalized pyridine co-ligand. All these complexes (C1-C12) were prepared in two steps continuous reaction by firstly, abstracting the ancillary chloride of the starting complexes with AgBF and secondly, adding the acetylated β-d-glucose conjugated pyridine. All these complexes were analyzed for their in vitro anticancer potency in human's gastric cancer MKN 45, colon cancer RPMI 4788 and non-small cell lung cancer A549 cells.

Head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) represent a heterogeneous group of tumors with a complex molecular profile. Despite therapeutic advances, patient prognosis remains poor, emphasizing the need for more effective treatment strategies. Traditional chemotherapy, with cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), remains the gold standard but is limited by toxicity and tumor resistance.

Poly-(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) is the most widely studied PARP enzyme, which plays a significant role in DNA damage repair. PARP1 inhibition has emerged as a clinically validated strategy to selectively target two cancer subtypes: tumors with homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated malignancies. This patent highlights the synthesis and pharmaceutical compositions of PARP1 inhibitors and their uses in the treatment of cancer.

Chromophobe renal cell carcinoma (ChRCC) is the third most common subtype of kidney cancer, with limited therapeutic options. Using BH3 profiling to screen ChRCC-derived cell lines, we discovered that BH3 peptides targeting BCL-xL promote apoptosis in ChRCC. Downregulation of BCL2L1 is sufficient to induce apoptosis in ChRCC-derived cells, consistent with our screening results.
