Resistance to endocrine treatments and CDK4/6 inhibitors is considered a near-inevitability in most patients with estrogen receptor positive breast cancers (ER + BC). By genomic and metabolomics analyses of patients' tumours, metastasis-derived patient-derived xenografts (PDX) and isogenic cell lines we demonstrate that a fraction of metastatic ER + BC is highly reliant on oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Treatment by the OXPHOS inhibitor IACS-010759 strongly inhibits tumour growth in multiple endocrine and palbociclib resistant PDX. Mutations in the PIK3CA/AKT1 genes are significantly associated with response to IACS-010759. At the metabolic level, in vivo response to IACS-010759 is associated with decreased levels of metabolites of the glutathione, glycogen and pentose phosphate pathways in treated tumours. In vitro, endocrine and palbociclib resistant cells show increased OXPHOS dependency and increased ROS levels upon IACS-010759 treatment. Finally, in ER + BC patients, high expression of OXPHOS associated genes predict poor prognosis. In conclusion, these results identify OXPHOS as a promising target for treatment resistant ER + BC patients.

The down-regulation of p21 after long-term CDK4/6 inhibition represents a key mechanism causing resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors in some tumor cells, while the HDAC inhibitor could upregulate the level of p21. Herein, a series of novel CDK4/6 and HDAC dual-targeting inhibitors based on the moiety of palbociclib were designed and synthesized. Among them, compound N14 potently inhibited CDK4/6 and HDAC1/6 at nanomolar levels and induced cell apoptosis and G/G phase arrest through HDAC-p21-CDK signaling pathway in HuH-7 cell line.

Background: In recent years, the combination of CDK4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) and endocrine therapy (ET) has emerged as the standard first-line treatment for hormone receptor positive (HR+) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-) metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients. However, the comparison between the efficacy of CDK4/6i has been poorly explored before. Moreover, it remains unclear about the optimal choice of CDK4/6i in the first-line treatment for HR+/HER2- MBC patients in Asian, especially Chinese populations.

Mutations in the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway occur in 30%-40% of patients with advanced hormone receptor-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative (HR+/HER2-) breast cancer. For most patients, endocrine therapy with a cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor is the first-line treatment. Recent studies indicate that adding inavolisib, a PI3Kα inhibitor, to palbociclib/fulvestrant benefits patients with endocrine-resistant HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer with a PIK3CA mutation.

CDK4/6 inhibitors such as palbociclib block cell cycle progression and improve outcomes for many ER+/HER2- breast cancer patients. Unfortunately, many patients are initially resistant to the drug or develop resistance over time in part due to heterogeneity among individual tumor cells. To better understand these mechanisms of resistance, we used multiplex, single-cell imaging to profile cell cycle proteins in ER+ breast tumor cells under increasing palbociclib concentrations.

The combination of CDK4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) and endocrine therapy is the first-line therapy for ER+/Her2-breast cancer; however, the development of drug resistance limited the efficacy of the agents. Although activation of the IFN signaling pathway has been identified as a critical driver of intrinsic and acquired CDK4/6i resistance, it remains unknown how the IFN signaling pathway was activated in resistant cells. Here, we report that NSRP1, a regulator of alternative mRNA splicing is downregulated in CDK4/6i resistant breast cancer cells and contributes to CDK4/6i resistance by mediating alternative splicing of NSD2 mRNA and activation of the IFN signaling pathway.
