PBRM1 is a tumor suppressor frequently mutated in clear cell renal cell carcinoma. However, no effective targeted therapies exist for ccRCC with PBRM1 loss. To identify novel therapeutic approaches to targeting PBRM1-deficient renal cancers, we employed a synthetic lethality compound screening in isogenic PBRM1+/+ and PBRM1-/- 786-O renal tumor cells and found that a DNMT inhibitor 5-Fluoro-2’-deoxycytidine (Fdcyd) selectively inhibit PBRM1-deficient tumor growth. RCC cells lacking PBRM1 show enhanced DNA damage response, which leads to sensitivity to DNA toxic drugs. Fdcyd treatment not only induces DNA damage, but also re-activated a pro-apoptotic factor XAF1 and further promotes the genotoxic stress-induced PBRM1-deficient cell death. This study shows a novel synthetic lethality interaction between PBRM1 loss and Fdcyd treatment and indicates that DNMT inhibitor represents a novel strategy for treating ccRCC with PBRM1 loss-of-function mutations. |
