Autophagy is a cellular process enabling the recycling of cytoplasmic components via the formation of double-membraned vesicles termed autophagosomes. In addition to autophagy-mediated vesicular trafficking, the endosomal vesicular trafficking process also enables the sequestration and destruction/recycling of cellular components. Upon fusion with lysosomes, the cargo of the autophagosome or the late-stage endosome is degraded and released back into the cell, fueling cellular metabolism. Due to its cytoprotective role, defective autophagy has been implicated in several human pathologies including cancer. Cancer cells have been shown to upregulate autophagy in response to stress factors present in the tumor microenvironment (TME) such as hypoxia, nutrient deprivation, as well as a resistance mechanism to anti-cancer therapy. Recently it has become known that the autophagy pathway and/or the endosomal pathway can be upregulated in various cancers to degrade proteins that would otherwise trigger a productive anti-tumor immune response. In certain cases, autophagy or endosomal trafficking in tumor cells leads to immune evasion by destroying the release of proinflammatory mediators, reducing immune cell recognition via MHC-I, and limiting T and natural killer (NK) cell-mediated cell death. Thus, there is a need to block the immunosuppressive effects of autophagy and endosomal trafficking in the tumor environment as a potential therapeutic strategy to improve cancer immunotherapy.
Innate immune sensing in the tumor environment is a critical for promoting spontaneous tumor-initiated T cell priming and tumor infiltration. Transcriptional profiling analyses of melanoma patients have revealed that tumors containing infiltrating activated T cells are characterized by a type I IFN signature. Murine studies have demonstrated that type I IFN signaling plays a critical role in tumor-initiated T cell priming. These findings in humans and in mice indicate that the innate immune system is defective in non-T-cell-inflamed tumors. Thus, strategies to induce type I IFN signaling and antigen-presenting cell activation in the tumor environment to bridge the innate and adaptive immune responses may have therapeutic utility in treating cancer patients. Recent work has demonstrated that activation of the STING pathway in the innate tumor environment is required for induction of a productive CD8+ T cell response against tumor-derived antigens in vivo. STING (stimulator of interferon genes) is a transmembrane protein localized to the endoplasmic reticulum that is activated in response to binding of cyclic dinucleotides (CDNs), resulting in a downstream signaling cascade involving TBK1 kinase activation, IRF-3 phosphorylation, and production of IFN-b and other cytokines. IFN-b is the major cytokine induced in response to activating STING, either by exogenous CDNs produced by bacterial infection or through binding of a structurally distinct endogenous CDNs produced by a host cyclic GMPAMP synthetase (cGAS). These observations suggest that direct activation of the STING pathway in the tumor environment by specific agonists could be an effective therapeutic strategy to promote broad tumor-initiated T cell priming against an individual's tumor antigen repertoire.
Exogenously administered STING agonists are being developed as vaccine adjuvants, as well as direct anti-tumor therapeutic effects. In addition to the administration of exogenous STING agonists, an alternative approach that modulates and upregulates endogenous STING signaling in the tumor environment may be a more preferred method of treatment. The lipid kinase vacuolar protein sorting 34 (VPS34) is a promising target for blocking autophagy- or endosomal pathway-mediated immunosuppression. VPS34, also known as class III phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PIK3C3), regulates autophagy initiation and other vesicular trafficking processes, including playing a key role in endosomal trafficking. Therefore, there is a need for therapeutics that directly activate the STING pathway for use in the treatment of disorders such as cancer.
The present disclosure, in part, is drawn to a method of treating cancers in a patient in need thereof, comprising administering to the patient a VPS34 inhibitor. It has been found that VPS34 inhibitors stimulate the endogenous CGAS/STING pathway in cancer cells or other cells in the tumor environment. Mechanistically, it has been found that VPS34 inhibition triggers an interferon (IFN) response by upregulating the cGAS-STING pathway in various cancers. The present disclosure also provides a method for turning cold tumors (tumor that evade the immune system) into hot tumors (tumors that are recognized and destroyed by the immune system) by administration of a VPS34 inhibitor. The present disclosure is further drawn to a method of the use of VPS34 inhibitors to synergize with exogenous STING agonists in increasing STING-dependent IFN response in vitro and in vivo and further converting cold tumors into hot tumors. These findings identify VPS34 inhibitors as a therapeutic strategy to activate the endogenous cGAS-STING pathway, resulting in a proinflammatory IFN response in the tumor environment and a productive anti-tumor immune response. Further, administration of a VPS34 inhibitor to a cancer patient in need of treatment could be beneficial in combination with other immunostimulatory therapeutics, such as a STING agonist, to improve the outcome of cancer immunotherapy.

Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into compounds of the present disclosure include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, fluorine and chlorine, such as 2H, 3H, 13C, 14C, 15N, 18O, 17O, 31P, 32P, 35S, 18F, and 36Cl, respectively. For example, a compound of the disclosure may have one or more H atom replaced with deuterium.
Individual enantiomers and diastereomers of compounds of the present disclosure can be prepared synthetically from commercially available starting materials that contain asymmetric or stereogenic centers, or by preparation of racemic mixtures followed by resolution methods well known to those of ordinary skill in the art. These methods of resolution are exemplified by (1) attachment of a mixture of enantiomers to a chiral auxiliary, separation of the resulting mixture of diastereomers by recrystallization or chromatography and liberation of the optically pure product from the auxiliary, (2) salt formation employing an optically active resolving agent, (3) direct separation of the mixture of optical enantiomers on chiral liquid chromatographic columns or (4) kinetic resolution using stereoselective chemical or enzymatic reagents. Racemic mixtures can also be resolved into their component enantiomers by well-known methods, such as chiral-phase liquid chromatography or crystallizing the compound in a chiral solvent. Stereoselective syntheses, a chemical or enzymatic reaction in which a single reactant forms an unequal mixture of stereoisomers during the creation of a new stereocenter or during the transformation of a pre-existing one, are well known in the art. Stereoselective syntheses encompass both enantio- and diastereoselective transformations, and may involve the use of chiral auxiliaries. For examples, see Carreira and Kvaerno, Classics in Stereoselective Synthesis, Wiley-VCH: Weinheim, 2009.

Thus, the two or more agents can be administered within minutes of each other or within 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, or 24 hours of each other or within 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14 days of each other or within 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or weeks of each other. In some cases even longer intervals are possible. While in many cases it is desirable that the two or more agents used in a combination therapy be present in within the patient's body at the same time, this need not be so.
Combination therapy can also include two or more administrations of one or more of the agents used in the combination using different sequencing of the component agents. For example, if agent X and agent Y are used in a combination, one could administer them sequentially in any combination one or more times, e.g., in the order X-Y-X, X-X-Y, Y-X-Y, Y-Y-X, X-X-Y-Y, etc.
Examples of additional therapeutics agents that can be used in combination with a VPS34 inhibitor such as a compound of Formula I, Formula II, Formula III, Formula IV, Formula V, or Formula VI as defined herein, includes, but not limited to, a STING agonist (e.g., DMXAA, ADU-S100, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof), an anti-PD-1 therapeutic, an anti PD-L1 therapeutic, or a CTLA4 inhibitor.
Another aspect of this disclosure provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising compounds as disclosed herein formulated together with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. In particular, the present disclosure provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising compounds as disclosed herein formulated together with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. These formulations include those suitable for oral, rectal, topical, buccal, parenteral (e.g., subcutaneous, intramuscular, intradermal, or intravenous) rectal, vaginal, or aerosol administration, although the most suitable form of administration in any given case will depend on the degree and severity of the condition being treated and on the nature of the particular compound being used. For example, disclosed compositions may be formulated as a unit dose, and/or may be formulated for oral or subcutaneous administration.
Exemplary pharmaceutical compositions may be used in the form of a pharmaceutical preparation, for example, in solid, semisolid or liquid form, which contains one or more of the compounds described herein, as an active ingredient, in admixture with an organic or inorganic carrier or excipient suitable for external, enteral or parenteral applications. The active ingredient may be compounded, for example, with the usual non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable carriers for tablets, pellets, capsules, suppositories, solutions, emulsions, suspensions, and any other form suitable for use. The active object compound is included in the pharmaceutical composition in an amount sufficient to produce the desired effect upon the process or condition of the disease.
For preparing solid compositions such as tablets, the principal active ingredient may be mixed with a pharmaceutical carrier, e.g., conventional tableting ingredients such as corn starch, lactose, sucrose, sorbitol, talc, stearic acid, magnesium stearate, dicalcium phosphate or gums, and other pharmaceutical diluents, e.g., water, to form a solid preformulation composition containing a homogeneous mixture of a compound provided herein, or a non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. When referring to these preformulation compositions as homogeneous, it is meant that the active ingredient is dispersed evenly throughout the composition so that the composition may be readily subdivided into equally effective unit dosage forms such as tablets, pills and capsules.
In solid dosage forms for oral administration (capsules, tablets, pills, dragees, powders, granules and the like), the subject composition is mixed with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, such as sodium citrate or dicalcium phosphate, and/or any of the following: (1) fillers or extenders, such as starches, lactose, sucrose, glucose, mannitol, and/or silicic acid; (2) binders, such as, for example, carboxymethylcellulose, alginates, gelatin, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, sucrose and/or acacia; (3) humectants, such as glycerol; (4) disintegrating agents, such as agar-agar, calcium carbonate, potato or tapioca starch, alginic acid, certain silicates, and sodium carbonate; (5) solution retarding agents, such as paraffin; (6) absorption accelerators, such as quaternary ammonium compounds; (7) wetting agents, such as, for example, acetyl alcohol and glycerol monostearate; (8) absorbents, such as kaolin and bentonite clay; (9) lubricants, such a talc, calcium stearate, magnesium stearate, solid polyethylene glycols, sodium lauryl sulfate, and mixtures thereof; and (10) coloring agents. In the case of capsules, tablets and pills, the compositions may also comprise buffering agents. Solid compositions of a similar type may also be employed as fillers in soft and hard-filled gelatin capsules using such excipients as lactose or milk sugars, as well as high molecular weight polyethylene glycols and the like.
A tablet may be made by compression or molding, optionally with one or more accessory ingredients. Compressed tablets may be prepared using binder (for example, gelatin or hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose), lubricant, inert diluent, preservative, disintegrant (for example, sodium starch glycolate or cross-linked sodium carboxymethyl cellulose), surface-active or dispersing agent. Molded tablets may be made by molding in a suitable machine a mixture of the subject composition moistened with an inert liquid diluent. Tablets, and other solid dosage forms, such as dragees, capsules, pills and granules, may optionally be scored or prepared with coatings and shells, such as enteric coatings and other coatings well known in the pharmaceutical-formulating art.
Compositions for inhalation or insufflation include solutions and suspensions in pharmaceutically acceptable, aqueous or organic solvents, or mixtures thereof, and powders. Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, microemulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups and elixirs. In addition to the subject composition, the liquid dosage forms may contain inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as, for example, water or other solvents, solubilizing agents and emulsifiers, such as ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl carbonate, ethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, propylene glycol, 1,3-butylene glycol, oils (in particular, cottonseed, groundnut, corn, germ, olive, castor and sesame oils), glycerol, tetrahydrofuryl alcohol, polyethylene glycols and fatty acid esters of sorbitan, cyclodextrins and mixtures thereof.
Suspensions, in addition to the subject composition, may contain suspending agents as, for example, ethoxylated isostearyl alcohols, polyoxyethylene sorbitol and sorbitan esters, microcrystalline cellulose, aluminum metahydroxide, bentonite, agar-agar and tragacanth, and mixtures thereof.
Formulations for rectal or vaginal administration may be presented as a suppository, which may be prepared by mixing a subject composition with one or more suitable non-irritating excipients or carriers comprising, for example, cocoa butter, polyethylene glycol, a suppository wax or a salicylate, and which is solid at room temperature, but liquid at body temperature and, therefore, will melt in the body cavity and release the active agent.
Dosage forms for transdermal administration of a subject composition include powders, sprays, ointments, pastes, creams, lotions, gels, solutions, patches and inhalants. The active component may be mixed under sterile conditions with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, and with any preservatives, buffers, or propellants which may be required.
The ointments, pastes, creams and gels may contain, in addition to a subject composition, excipients, such as animal and vegetable fats, oils, waxes, paraffins, starch, tragacanth, cellulose derivatives, polyethylene glycols, silicones, bentonites, silicic acid, talc and zinc oxide, or mixtures thereof.
Powders and sprays may contain, in addition to a subject composition, excipients such as lactose, talc, silicic acid, aluminum hydroxide, calcium silicates and polyamide powder, or mixtures of these substances. Sprays may additionally contain customary propellants, such as chlorofluorohydrocarbons and volatile unsubstituted hydrocarbons, such as butane and propane.
Compositions and compounds of the present disclosure may alternatively be administered by aerosol. This is accomplished by preparing an aqueous aerosol, liposomal preparation or solid particles containing the compound. A non-aqueous (e.g., fluorocarbon propellant) suspension could be used. Sonic nebulizers may be used because they minimize exposing the agent to shear, which may result in degradation of the compounds contained in the subject compositions. Ordinarily, an aqueous aerosol is made by formulating an aqueous solution or suspension of a subject composition together with conventional pharmaceutically acceptable carriers and stabilizers. The carriers and stabilizers vary with the requirements of the particular subject composition, but typically include non-ionic surfactants (Tweens, Pluronics, or polyethylene glycol), innocuous proteins like serum albumin, sorbitan esters, oleic acid, lecithin, amino acids such as glycine, buffers, salts, sugars or sugar alcohols. Aerosols generally are prepared from isotonic solutions.
Pharmaceutical compositions of the present disclosure suitable for parenteral administration comprise a subject composition in combination with one or more pharmaceutically-acceptable sterile isotonic aqueous or non-aqueous solutions, dispersions, suspensions or emulsions, or sterile powders which may be reconstituted into sterile injectable solutions or dispersions just prior to use, which may contain antioxidants, buffers, bacteriostats, solutes which render the formulation isotonic with the blood of the intended recipient or suspending or thickening agents.
Examples of suitable aqueous and non-aqueous carriers which may be employed in the pharmaceutical compositions provided herein include water, ethanol, polyols (such as glycerol, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, and the like), and suitable mixtures thereof, vegetable oils, such as olive oil, and injectable organic esters, such as ethyl oleate and cyclodextrins. Proper fluidity may be maintained, for example, by the use of coating materials, such as lecithin, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersions, and by the use of surfactants.
In another aspect, provided are enteral pharmaceutical formulations including a disclosed compound and an enteric material; and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient thereof. Enteric materials refer to polymers that are substantially insoluble in the acidic environment of the stomach, and that are predominantly soluble in intestinal fluids at specific pHs. The small intestine is the part of the gastrointestinal tract (gut) between the stomach and the large intestine, and includes the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum. The pH of the duodenum is about 5.5, the pH of the jejunum is about 6.5 and the pH of the distal ileum is about 7.5.
Accordingly, enteric materials are not soluble, for example, until a pH of about 5.0, of about 5.2, of about 5.4, of about 5.6, of about 5.8, of about 6.0, of about 6.2, of about 6.4, of about 6.6, of about 6.8, of about 7.0, of about 7.2, of about 7.4, of about 7.6, of about 7.8, of about 8.0, of about 8.2, of about 8.4, of about 8.6, of about 8.8, of about 9.0, of about 9.2, of about 9.4, of about 9.6, of about 9.8, or of about 10.0. Exemplary enteric materials include cellulose acetate phthalate (CAP), hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate (HPMCP), polyvinyl acetate phthalate (PVAP), hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acetate succinate (HPMCAS), cellulose acetate trimellitate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose succinate, cellulose acetate succinate, cellulose acetate hexahydrophthalate, cellulose propionate phthalate, cellulose acetate maleate, cellulose acetate butyrate, cellulose acetate propionate, copolymer of methylmethacrylic acid and methyl methacrylate, copolymer of methyl acrylate, methylmethacrylate and methacrylic acid, copolymer of methylvinyl ether and maleic anhydride (Gantrez ES series), ethyl methyacrylate-methylmethacrylate-chlorotrimethylammonium ethyl acrylate copolymer, natural resins such as zein, shellac and copal collophorium, and several commercially available enteric dispersion systems (e.g., Eudragit L30D55, Eudragit FS30D, Eudragit L100, Eudragit S100, Kollicoat EMM30D, Estacryl 30D, Coateric, and Aquateric). The solubility of each of the above materials is either known or is readily determinable in vitro. The foregoing is a list of possible materials, but one of skill in the art with the benefit of the disclosure would recognize that it is not comprehensive and that there are other enteric materials that would meet the objectives described herein.
Advantageously, provided herein are kits for use by a e.g. a consumer in need of treatment of a disease or disorder described herein, such as an infection caused by a pathogen described herein, e.g., a virus, fungus, or protozoan. Such kits include a suitable dosage form such as those described above and instructions describing the method of using such dosage form to mediate, reduce or prevent inflammation. The instructions would direct the consumer or medical personnel to administer the dosage form according to administration modes known to those skilled in the art. Such kits could advantageously be packaged and sold in single or multiple kit units. An example of such a kit is a so-called blister pack. Blister packs are well known in the packaging industry and are being widely used for the packaging of pharmaceutical unit dosage forms (tablets, capsules, and the like). Blister packs generally consist of a sheet of relatively stiff material covered with a foil of a preferably transparent plastic material. During the packaging process recesses are formed in the plastic foil. The recesses have the size and shape of the tablets or capsules to be packed. Next, the tablets or capsules are placed in the recesses and the sheet of relatively stiff material is sealed against the plastic foil at the face of the foil which is opposite from the direction in which the recesses were formed. As a result, the tablets or capsules are sealed in the recesses between the plastic foil and the sheet. Preferably the strength of the sheet is such that the tablets or capsules can be removed from the blister pack by manually applying pressure on the recesses whereby an opening is formed in the sheet at the place of the recess. The tablet or capsule can then be removed via said opening.
It may be desirable to provide a memory aid on the kit, e.g., in the form of numbers next to the tablets or capsules whereby the numbers correspond with the days of the regimen which the tablets or capsules so specified should be ingested. Another example of such a memory aid is a calendar printed on the card, e.g., as follows “First Week, Monday, Tuesday, . . . etc. . . . Second Week, Monday, Tuesday, . . . ” etc. Other variations of memory aids will be readily apparent. A “daily dose” can be a single tablet or capsule or several pills or capsules to be taken on a given day. Also, a daily dose of a first compound can consist of one tablet or capsule while a daily dose of the second compound can consist of several tablets or capsules and vice versa. The memory aid should reflect this.
The compounds described herein can be prepared in a number of ways based on the teachings contained herein and disclosures of synthetic procedures in the art. In the description of the synthetic methods described below, it is to be understood that all proposed reaction conditions, including choice of solvent, reaction atmosphere, reaction temperature, duration of the experiment and workup procedures, can be chosen to be the conditions standard for that reaction, unless otherwise indicated. It is understood by one skilled in the art of organic synthesis that the functionality present on various portions of the molecule should be compatible with the reagents and reactions proposed. Substituents not compatible with the reaction conditions will be apparent to one skilled in the art, and alternate methods are therefore indicated. The starting materials for the examples are either commercially available or are readily prepared by standard methods from known materials.

A-498 cells were seeded at 1.5×105 cells/well in 6-well plates and cultured overnight. Cells were treated with 10 μg/mL mouse monoclonal antibody to human interferon α/β receptor chain 2 (α-IFNAR2) (clone: MMHAR-2, #21385-1, PBL Assay Science) or 10 μg/mL mouse IgG2a isotype control antibody (clone: eBM2a, #16-4724-81, Thermo Fisher Scientific). After 1 h, DMSO or 2 μM Compound 1 was added and cells were incubated for another 24 h. Treatment with 5 ng/mL recombinant IFNβ (#300-02BC, PeproTech) was used as a positive control. A-498 cells were washed in PBS and lysed in RIPA buffer (50 mM Tris HCl pH=7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 1% Triton X-100, 0.5% Na-deoxycholate, 0.1% SDS) containing protease inhibitor cocktail (#11836170001, Roche), and phosphatase inhibitor (#11836170001, Roche) for 10 min at 4° C. After centrifugation at 15000 rpm for 10 min at 4° C., the supernatant was obtained, and protein concentration was quantified using BCA assay (#23225, Thermo Fisher). Equal amounts were mixed with 0.1 M DTT and LDS Sample Buffer (#84788, Thermo Fisher), heated for 5 min at 90° C. before loading onto 4-12% Bis-Tris gels. Proteins were transferred to nitrocellulose membranes. Membranes were blocked in 5% non-fat dry milk in TBS with 0.05% Tween (TBS-T) for 1 h at RT, washed in TBS-T, and probed with primary antibodies shaking overnight at 4° C. After washing in TBS-T, membranes were incubated with IRDye 800CW goat anti-rabbit or IRDye 680RD donkey anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (#926-32211 and #926-68072, respectively, LI-COR, 1:10,000 dilution) secondary antibody in Intercept blocking buffer (#927-60001, LI-COR) for 1 h at RT.

After 48 h cells were treated with DMSO or 2 μM of VPS34 inhibitor (Compound 1 or Compound 2) for 24 h. A-498 cells were washed in PBS and lysed in RIPA buffer (50 mM Tris HCl pH=7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 1% Triton X-100, 0.5% Na-deoxycholate, 0.1% SDS) containing protease inhibitor cocktail (#11836170001, Roche), and phosphatase inhibitor (#11836170001, Roche) for 10 min at 4° C.

B16-F10, CT26, DC2.4 or Renca cells were seeded at 1×106 cells/well in 6-well plates and cultured overnight. Cells were treated with DMSO, 10 μg/mL ADU-S100, 2 μM Compound 1 or the combination for the times indicated in the figure. Cells were washed in PBS and lysed in RIPA buffer (#89901, Pierce) containing protease inhibitor cocktail (#78401, Pierce), phosphatase inhibitor (#78420, Pierce), and 0.5M EDTA solution (#1861276, Thermo Fisher) for 10 min at 4° C. After centrifugation at 21000 rpm for 10 min at 4° C., the supernatant was obtained, and protein concentration was quantified using BCA assay (#23225, Thermo Fisher). Equal amounts were mixed with Sample Reducing agent (#NP0009, Thermo Fisher) and LDS Sample Buffer (#NP0007, Thermo Fisher), heated for 15 min at 90° C. before loading onto 10% Bis-Tris Midi gels. Proteins were transferred to polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes. Membranes were blocked with 5% BSA in 1×TBS solution for 1 h at RT, washed in TBS-T, and probed with primary antibodies shaking overnight at 4° C. After washing in TBS-T, membranes were incubated with IRDye 800CW Goat anti-Rabbit (#926-32211, LI-COR, 1:10,000 dilution) secondary antibody in Intercept Blocking Buffer (#927-70001, LI-COR) for 1 h at RT. After washing in TBS-T, membranes were imaged using the Odyssey CLx (LI-COR). Band intensities were quantified using Image Studio software version 5.2.5 (LI-COR).
THP1-Dual™ Cells lines were purchased from InvivoGen (WT (thpd-nfis) and STING-KO (thpd-kostg)) and cultured as recommended by manufacturer: in RPMI media (Gibco 22400-071) supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) (Gibco A38400-02) and 1× Pen-Strep-Glutamine (Gibco 10378-016). Cells were treated with selective antibiotic every other passage using 100 μg/ml Normocin™ (InvivoGen ant-nr-1), 10 μg/ml of blasticidin (InvivoGen ant-bl-05) and 100 μg/ml of Zeocin™ (InvivoGen ant-zn-05). THP1-Dual™ Cells (wild-type or STING-KO) were seeded at 1.5×105 cells/well in 96-well plates. Cells were treated with DMSO, 5 μg/mL ADU-S100, 2 μM Compound 1 or 2 or the combinations overnight. The next day, 10 μL of the media from the treated cells were mixed with 50 μL of QUANTI-Luc™ Gold (Invivogen rep-qlcg2) in a white 96-well plate (Thermo Scientific 9502887) to measure the interferon-sensitive response element (ISRE) promoter activity through Luciferase signal using a plate reader. For measuring NF-κB promoter activity, 10 μL of the media from the treated cells were mixed with 90 μL of QUANTI-Blue™ (Invivogen rep-qbs3) in white-96-well plates (Corning-Costar 3610), then incubated at 37° C. for one hour. The signal was then measured using a plate reader with detection at 640 nm wavelength.
This study was performed to identify whether the combination of a STING agonist and a VPS34 inhibitor resulted in enhanced activation of STING due to the delayed degradation of activated STING in multiple cancer cell lines.
