The invention belongs to the technical field of
medicine. More specifically, the invention relates to application of telbivudine in preparation of drugs for preventing or treating
breast cancer. The invention provides an application of telbivudine in preparation of a
medicine for preventing or treating
breast cancer. The invention proves that the telbivudine has an anti-
breast cancer effect for the first time, and the telbivudine as the NSD2 inhibitor can effectively inhibit the growth of the breast
cancer. Meanwhile, the telbivudine can remodel the immunosuppressive
tumor microenvironment, reduce the infiltration of regulatory T cells (Treg), and significantly enhance the
effector function of CD8 + T cells. More importantly, the telbivudine and the PD-1
antibody are combined to show a remarkable synergistic effect in a breast
cancer mouse model, and the
tumor inhibition effect and survival benefit are superior to those of a single
drug. The combination scheme of the telbivudine and the PD-1
antibody significantly improves the sensitivity of breast
cancer to
immunotherapy, provides a new scheme for solving the problem of low clinical response rate of breast
cancer immunotherapy, and has good application prospects and application values.
