BUB1 is overexpressed in most human solid cancers, including breast cancer. Higher BUB1 levels are associated with a poor prognosis, especially in patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Women with TNBC often develop resistance to chemotherapy and radiotherapy, which are still the mainstay of treatment for TNBC. Our previous studies demonstrated that a BUB1 kinase inhibitor (BAY1816032) reduced tumor cell proliferation and significantly enhanced radiotherapy efficacy in TNBC. In this study, we evaluated the effectiveness of BAY1816032 with a PARP inhibitor (olaparib), platinum agent (cisplatin), and microtubule poison (paclitaxel) alone or in combination with radiotherapy using cytotoxicity and clonogenic survival assays. BUB1 inhibitors sensitized BRCA1/2 wild-type SUM159 and MDA-MB-231 cells to olaparib, cisplatin, and paclitaxel synergistically (combination index; CI < 1). BAY1816032 significantly increased the radiation sensitization of SUM159 and MDA-MB-231 by olaparib, cisplatin, or paclitaxel at non-toxic concentrations (doses well below the IC50 concentrations). Importantly, the small molecular inhibitor of BUB1 synergistically (CI < 1) sensitized the BRCA mutant TNBC cell line HCC1937 to olaparib. Furthermore, the BUB1 inhibitor significantly increased the radiation enhancement ratio (rER) in HCC1937 cells (rER 1.34) compared to either agent alone (BUB1i rER 1.19; PARPi rER 1.04). The data presented here are significant as they provide proof that inhibition of BUB1 kinase activity sensitizes TNBC cell lines to a PARP inhibitor and radiation, irrespective of BRCA1/2 mutation status. Due to the ability of the BUB1 inhibitor to sensitize TNBC to different classes of drugs (platinum, PARPi, microtubule depolarization inhibitors), this work strongly supports the role of BUB1 as a novel molecular target to improve chemoradiation efficacy in TNBC and provides a rationale for the clinical evaluation of BAY1816032 as a chemosensitizer and chemoradiosensitizer in TNBC. |
