Background on TW-37

TW-37 is a potent small-molecule inhibitor of BCL-2 (Ki = 290 nmol/L), which attenuates BCL-2 activation and inhibits multiple BCL-2 family members including BCL-XL (Ki = 1,110 nmol/L) and MCL-1 (Ki = 260 nmol/L). It binds to the BCL-2 homology domain 3 (BH3) groove of BCL-2 preventing the heterodimerization of proapoptotic proteins (such as Bid, Bim, and Bad) with BCL-2 and subsequently allowing them to induce apoptosis. Recent studies indicate TW-37 is able to inhibit the growth of a broad range of cancer cells (such as breast, prostate, lymphoma, and pancreatic cancer), since it induces S-phase cell cycle arrest with regulation of several important cell cycle related genes, including p27, p57, E2F-1, cdc25A, CDK4, cyclin A, cyclin D1 and cyclin E.

Metronomic small molecule inhibitor of Bcl-2 (TW-37) is antiangiogenic and potentiates the antitumor effect of ionizing radiation.[Pubmed:20675079]

Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys. 2010 Nov 1;78(3):879-87.

PURPOSE: To investigate the effect of a metronomic (low-dose, high-frequency) small-molecule inhibitor of Bcl-2 (TW-37) in combination with radiotherapy on microvascular endothelial cells in vitro and in tumor angiogenesis in vivo. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Primary human dermal microvascular endothelial cells were exposed to ionizing radiation and/or TW-37 and colony formation, as well as capillary sprouting in three-dimensional collagen matrices, was evaluated. Xenografts vascularized with human blood vessels were engineered by cotransplantation of human squamous cell carcinoma cells (OSCC3) and human dermal microvascular endothelial cells seeded in highly porous biodegradable scaffolds into the subcutaneous space of immunodeficient mice. Mice were treated with metronomic TW-37 and/or radiation, and tumor growth was evaluated. RESULTS: Low-dose TW-37 sensitized primary endothelial cells to radiation-induced inhibition of colony formation. Low-dose TW-37 or radiation partially inhibited endothelial cell sprout formation, and in combination, these therapies abrogated new sprouting. Combination of metronomic TW-37 and low-dose radiation inhibited tumor growth and resulted in significant increase in time to failure compared with controls, whereas single agents did not. Notably, histopathologic analysis revealed that tumors treated with TW-37 (with or without radiation) are more differentiated and showed more cohesive invasive fronts, which is consistent with less aggressive phenotype. CONCLUSIONS: These results demonstrate that metronomic TW-37 potentiates the antitumor effects of radiotherapy and suggest that patients with head and neck cancer might benefit from the combination of small molecule inhibitor of Bcl-2 and radiation therapy.

Data on the DNA damaging and mutagenic potential of the BH3-mimetics ABT-263/Navitoclax and TW-37.[Pubmed:26958630]

Data Brief. 2016 Jan 16;6:710-4.

Unfortunately, the mutagenic activities of chemotherapy and radiotherapy can provoke development of therapy-induced malignancies in cancer survivors. Non-mutagenic anti-cancer therapies may be less likely to trigger subsequent malignant neoplasms. Here we present data regarding the DNA damaging and mutagenic potential of two drugs that antagonize proteins within the Bcl-2 family: ABT-263/Navitoclax and TW-37. Our data reveal that concentrations of these agents that stimulated Bax/Bak-dependent signaling provoked little DNA damage and failed to trigger mutations in surviving cells. The data supplied in this article is related to the research work entitled "Inhibition of Bcl-2 or IAP proteins does not provoke mutations in surviving cells" [1].

TW-37, a small-molecule inhibitor of Bcl-2, mediates S-phase cell cycle arrest and suppresses head and neck tumor angiogenesis.[Pubmed:19372562]

Mol Cancer Ther. 2009 Apr;8(4):893-903.

Members of the Bcl-2 family play a major role in the pathobiology of head and neck cancer. We have shown that Bcl-2 orchestrates a cross talk between tumor cells and endothelial cells that have a direct effect on the progression of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Notably, Bcl-2 is significantly up-regulated in the tumor-associated endothelial cells compared with the endothelial cells of normal oral mucosa in patients with HNSCC. Here, we evaluated the effect of TW-37, a small-molecule inhibitor of Bcl-2, on the cell cycle and survival of endothelial cells and HNSCC and on the progression of xenografted tumors. TW-37 has an IC50 of 1.1 micromol/L for primary human endothelial cells and averaged 0.3 micromol/L for head and neck cancer cells (OSCC3, UM-SCC-1, and UM-SCC-74A). The combination of TW-37 and cisplatin showed enhanced cytotoxic effects for endothelial cells and HNSCC in vitro, compared with single drug treatment. Notably, whereas cisplatin led to an expected G2-M cell cycle arrest, TW-37 mediated an S-phase cell cycle arrest in endothelial cells and in HNSCC. In vivo, TW-37 inhibited tumor angiogenesis and induced tumor apoptosis without significant systemic toxicities. Combination of TW-37 and cisplatin enhanced the time to tumor failure (i.e., 4-fold increase in tumor volume), compared with either drug given separately. Collectively, these data reveal that therapeutic inhibition of Bcl-2 function with TW-37 is sufficient to arrest endothelial cells and HNSCC in the S phase of the cell cycle and to inhibit head and neck tumor angiogenesis.

Small-molecule inhibitor of Bcl-2 (TW-37) suppresses growth and enhances cisplatin-induced apoptosis in ovarian cancer cells.[Pubmed:25823945]

J Ovarian Res. 2015 Feb 20;8:3.

BACKGROUND: Bcl-2 plays a major role in the pathobiology and drug resistance of ovarian cancer, and inhibition of bcl-2 was useful for OC therapy. It has previously reported that TW-37, a small-molecule inhibitor of Bcl-2 family proteins, inhibited cell growth and induced apoptosis in many cancer cells. In the present study,we investigate the effect of TW-37 or / and in combination with cisplain on several ovarian cancer (OC) cell lines with high bcl-2 expression. METHODS: The bcl-2 mRNA and protein expression, and the cisplain (DDP) sensitivity of OC cell lines SKOV3, OVCAR3, OV-90 and 3AO and SKOV3DDP were determined by Quantitative real-time RT-PCR,Western blot, and 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide and fluorescence-activated cell sorting (MTT) assays. The effects of TW-37 alone or combined with cisplain on growth and apoptosis in bcl-2 overexpressed OVCAR3, OV-90 and SKOV3DDP cells was detected by MTT,clonogenic assay, ELISA and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay. RESULTS: The cell lines SKOV3 and 3AO were sensitive, whereas OVCAR3, OV-90 and SKOV3DDP were resistant to cisplain. Significant positive correlation was observed between basal bcl-2 mRNA and protein and cisplain sensitivity. Cisplain treatment did not activate bcl-2 in vitro. Treatment with TW-37 inhibited bcl-2 expression in bcl-2 overexpressed OVCAR3, OV-90 and SKOV3DDP cells , and inhibited growth and induced apoptosis ,and increased cisplain killing of the bcl-2 overexpressed cells in a does and time-dependant manner in vitro. CONCLUSION: Bcl-2 level positively correlated with sensitivity to cisplain. Treatment with TW-37 was effective alone and in combination with cisplain in bcl-2 overexpressed OC cell lines in vitro. Thus, TW-37 may be a useful therapeutic agent for OCs.

TW-37, a small-molecule inhibitor of Bcl-2, inhibits cell growth and induces apoptosis in pancreatic cancer: involvement of Notch-1 signaling pathway.[Pubmed:19318573]

Cancer Res. 2009 Apr 1;69(7):2757-65.

Overexpression of Bcl-2 family proteins has been found in a variety of aggressive human carcinomas, including pancreatic cancer, suggesting that specific agents targeting Bcl-2 family proteins would be valuable for pancreatic cancer therapy. We have previously reported that TW-37, a small-molecule inhibitor of Bcl-2 family proteins, inhibited cell growth and induced apoptosis in pancreatic cancer. However, the precise role and the molecular mechanism of action of TW-37 have not been fully elucidated. In our current study, we found that TW-37 induces cell growth inhibition and S-phase cell cycle arrest, with regulation of several important cell cycle-related genes like p27, p57, E2F-1, cdc25A, CDK4, cyclin A, cyclin D1, and cyclin E. The cell growth inhibition was accompanied by increased apoptosis with concomitant attenuation of Notch-1, Jagged-1, and its downstream genes such as Hes-1 in vitro and in vivo. We also found that down-regulation of Notch-1 by small interfering RNA or gamma-secretase inhibitors before TW-37 treatment resulted in enhanced cell growth inhibition and apoptosis. Our data suggest that the observed antitumor activity of TW-37 is mediated through a novel pathway involving inactivation of Notch-1 and Jagged-1.

Structure-based design of potent small-molecule inhibitors of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 proteins.[Pubmed:17034116]

J Med Chem. 2006 Oct 19;49(21):6139-42.

A structure-based approach was employed to design a new class of small-molecule inhibitors of Bcl-2. The most potent compound 5 (TW-37) binds to Bcl-2 with a K(i) value of 290 nM and also to Bcl-xL and Mcl-1 with high affinities. Compound 5 potently inhibits cell growth in PC-3 prostate cancer cells with an IC(50) value of 200 nM and effectively induces apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner.

Antiangiogenic effect of TW37, a small-molecule inhibitor of Bcl-2.[Pubmed:16951185]

Cancer Res. 2006 Sep 1;66(17):8698-706.

Bcl-2 is an antiapoptotic protein that is up-regulated in several tumor types, and its expression levels have strong correlation to development of resistance to therapy and poor prognosis. We have shown recently that Bcl-2 also functions as a proangiogenic signaling molecule that activates a nuclear factor-kappaB-mediated pathway resulting in up-regulation of the angiogenic chemokines CXCL1 and CXCL8 by neovascular endothelial cells. Here, we evaluate the antiangiogenic effect of the novel small-molecule inhibitor of Bcl-2 (TW37) developed using a structure-based design strategy. We observed that TW37 has an IC(50) of 1.8 mumol/L for endothelial cells but showed no cytotoxic effects for fibroblasts at concentrations up to 50 mumol/L. The mechanism of TW37-induced endothelial cell death was apoptosis, in a process mediated by mitochondrial depolarization and activation of caspase-9 and caspase-3. The effect of TW37 on endothelial cell apoptosis was not prevented by coexposure to the growth factor milieu secreted by tumor cells. Inhibition of the angiogenic potential of endothelial cells (i.e., migration and capillary sprouting assays) and expression of the angiogenic chemokines CXCL1 and CXCL8 were accomplished at subapoptotic TW37 concentrations (0.005-0.05 micromol/L). Notably, administration of TW37 i.v. resulted in a decrease in the density of functional human microvessels in the severe combined immunodeficient mouse model of human angiogenesis. In conclusion, we describe functionally separate proapoptotic and antiangiogenic mechanisms for a small-molecule inhibitor of Bcl-2 and show the potential for Bcl-2 inhibition as a target for antiangiogenic therapy.
