Definitions

  • IRE1 ⁇ inhibitors Described herein are IRE1 ⁇ inhibitors, compositions containing such inhibitors, and methods of treatment that include administration of such compounds. Examples of such inhibitors are provided throughout the application.
  • XBP1 can promote tumor progression by confounding the development of protective antitumor immunity in the ovarian cancer tumor microenvironment. Without XBP1, tumor resident dendritic cells fail to accumulate intracellular lipids, which normally disrupt effective antigen cross-presentation. This pathological lipid accumulation is fundamentally driven by reactive oxygen species-mediated lipid peroxidation, which directly destabilizes protein-folding chaperones within the endoplasmic reticulum to induce a state of ER stress and XBP1 activation. Additionally, the inventors have found that IRE1 ⁇ -mediated XBP1 signaling is involved in myeloid cell production of immunosuppressive prostaglandins such as prostaglandin E2 (PGE2).

  • XBP1 is believed to sustain dendritic cell immunosuppressive activity with the tumor microenvironment by directly upregulating enzymes involved in triglyceride biosynthesis (Cubillos-Ruiz, et al., Cell 161(7): 1527-38 (2015)).
  • XBP1 also known as X-box binding protein 1
  • IRE1 ⁇ -mediated XBP1 activation was fueled by the induction of reactive oxygen species and subsequent formation of peroxidized lipids.
  • IRE1 ⁇ The most conserved arm of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response is the dual enzyme, IRE1 ⁇ . Activated during periods of ER stress, the IRE1 ⁇ endoribonuclease domain excises a short nucleotide fragment from Xbp1 mRNA to generate the functional transcription factor, XBP1.
  • This potent, multitasking protein promotes cell survival by upregulating expression of a broad range of critical genes involved in protein folding and quality control.
  • XBP1 drives the pathogenesis of triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) by promoting tumor cell survival and metastatic capacity under hypoxic conditions. Silencing of XBP1 in TNBC leads to suppression of tumor initiation, progression, and recurrence.

  • Novel small-molecule IRE1 ⁇ inhibitors with the ability to induce two parallel and mutually reinforcing anti-tumor mechanisms, namely the direct inhibition of tumor growth and the simultaneous induction of robust anti-tumor immunity, are highly desirable, as no effective, targeted therapies currently exist for either TNBC or ovarian cancer.
