Popis: We previously identified high activation of mTORC1 and mTORC2 in AT/RT by immunohistochemistry of 18 primary tumors expanding over each molecular subgroup of AT/RT. Paxalisib is a highly brain-penetrant PI3k inhibitor acting upstream of mTORC1/2 to fully inhibit the activation of both complexes. Ongoing pediatric clinical trials have reported Paxalisib as safe and well-tolerated. We find that Paxalisib leads to minimal toxicities in mice bearing AT/RT orthotopic xenografts, slows tumor growth (as determined by bioluminescent imaging), and significantly extends survival (CHLA-06: 40 to 54 days, p=0.0011; BT12: 21 to 35 days, p=0.02). However, due to limited durability of single agent therapy, we conducted pilot studies to identify rational combination therapies to further enhance these survival benefits. RG2833 is a novel, highly brain penetrant, histone deacetylase 1/3 (HDAC1/3) inhibitor. HDAC inhibitors have previously been identified as synergistic partners with PI3k/mTOR inhibitors through complementary activation of FOXO signaling pathways. We hypothesized that RG2833 would synergize with Paxalisib, minimize toxicities compared with pan-HDAC inhibitors, and maximize therapeutic benefits due to superior CNS penetration. We demonstrate that Paxalisib and RG2833 combine synergistically to decrease AT/RT cell growth (SynergyFinder ZIP score 11.1; CellTiter-Blue Cell Viability Assay, p
