Popis: | Targeting epigenetic dysregulation has emerged as a valuable therapeutic strategy in cancer treatment. Especially epigenetic combination therapy of histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) with established anti-cancer drugs has provided promising results in preclinical and clinical studies. The structural optimization of alkoxyamide-based class I/IIb inhibitors afforded improved analogs with potent efficacy in cisplatin-resistant head and neck carcinoma cells and bortezomib-resistant leukemia cells. The most promising HDACi showed a superior synergistic cytotoxic activity as compared to vorinostat and class I HDACi in combination with cisplatin, leading to a full reversal of the chemoresistant phenotype in head and neck cancer cell lines, as well in combination with the proteasome inhibitors (bortezomib and carfilzomib) in a panel of leukemic cell lines. Furthermore, the most valuable alkoxyamide-based HDACi exhibited strong ex vivo anticancer efficacy against primary patient samples obtained from different therapy-resistant leukemic entities. |
