[0001] This application claims benefit of priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119(e) to U.S. Provisional Application No.63 / 585,942 filed September 27, 2023, which is incorporated herein in its entirety and for al purposes. STATEMENT AS TO RIGHTS TO INVENTIONS MADE UNDER FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
[0002] NOT APPLICABLE REFERENCE TO A "SEQUENCE LISTING," A TABLE, OR A COMPUTER PROGRAM LISTING APPENDIX SUBMITTED ON A COMPACT DISK
[0003] NOT APPLICABLE BACKGROUND
[0004] Cancer is caused by uncontroled and unregulated celular proliferation. The consequence of this often-rapid proliferation is a high level of oxidative stress within the tumor which damages DNA and leads to a much-increased mutation rate. Tumor cels therefore engage and rely heavily upon DNA damage repair mechanisms.
[0005] Single-strand breaks (SSBs) are the most common type of lesion arising in cels and PARG (Poly ADP-ribose glycohydrolase) together with PARP (poly ADP-ribose polymerase) is involved along with a number of other proteins in single strand break repair (SSBR) and another repair mechanism caled base excision repair (BER).
[0006] One of the earliest events during single strand DNA repair is the binding of PARP (poly ADP-ribose polymerase) to the break and the rapid synthesis of poly ADP-ribose (PAR) on PARP itself. This molecular structure serves as a signal to recruit other DNA repair proteins, initialy XRCC1, which wil then repair the break (Mortusewicz, Fouquerel et al.2011). The signal initiated by these PAR chains is short-lived as they are rapidly degraded by the enzymePARG. When PARP is bound to PAR, its catalytic activity is reduced and therefore PARG activity helps to restore PARP to its catalyticaly active form (Curtin and Szabo 2013).
[0007] PARG is derived from a single gene with isoforms that reside in the nucleus, mitochondria and cytosol. Another known protein with glycohydrolase activity is ARH3 which is localized to the mitochondria (Mashimo, Kato et al.2014). Although, known primarily for its direct role in DNA repair, PARG impacts PAR signaling in splicing, transcriptional and epigenetic pathways (Ji and Tulin 2009) (Le May, Iltis et al.2012) (Dahl, Maturi et al.2014) (Guastafiero, Catizone et al.2013) (Caiafa, Guastafiero et al.2009).
[0008] Cancer cels may become reliant upon a specific DNA repair pathway when other mechanisms of DNA repair are non-functional. Tumors carying mutations in proteins involved in double strand break repair are often more sensitive to PARP inhibitors of SSBR. There is already some evidence that PARG depletion inhibits SSBR and reduces survival of BRCA2- deficient cels (Fathers, Drayton et al.2012). However, other tumor mutations may give rise to deficiencies in double strand DNA repair mechanisms (so-caled “BRCA-ness”) thereby sensitizing tumor cels to PARG inhibition.
[0009] PARG depletion has been studied in a number of murine and human model systems. Murine cels that are nul or depleted for PARG display an increased sensitivity to experimental and clinical DNA damaging agents. However, as deficiency in PARG doesn’t sensitize to al agents (e.g. gemcitabine, camptothecin) this suggests a specificity for PARG function with certain pathways of DNA damage repair and chemo- and radiotherapies (Fujihara, Ogino et al. 2009) (Shirai, Fujimori et al.2013) (Zhou, Feng et al.2010) (Zhou, Feng et al.2011).
[0010] In humans, PARG depletion sensitizes lung, cervical and pancreatic cancer cels to ^- iradiation or experimental DNA damaging agents (e.g. hydrogen peroxide, Methylmethanesulfonate) (Ame, Fouquerel et al.2009) (Nakadate, Kodera et al.2013) (Shirai, Poetsch et al.2013).
[0011] PARP inhibitors are currently undergoing multiple clinical trials where the concept of synthetic lethality or chemo-sensitization is being explored. Clinical resistance to PARP inhibitors has already been described (Drost and Jonkers 2014) (Barber, Sandhu et al.2013) andtherefore there is a requirement that alternative inhibitors targeting the DNA damage repair machinery are found.
[0012] Although curent models show that PARG depletion leads to PARP-dependent efects on DNA repair, recent research has shown a mechanistic diferentiation from PARP inhibition. Folowing a genotoxic stimulus depletion of PARG, in contrast to PARP depletion, leads to a drop in NAD levels. This leads to lung cancer cel death as a result of energy failure (Erdelyi, Bai et al.2009).
[0013] Cel permeable PARG inhibitors have been limited to compounds such as Tannic acid or Galotannin which have questionable specificity for PARG and limited bioavailability (Sun, Zhang et al.2012) (Fathers, Drayton et al.2012) (Blenn, Wyrsch et al.2011).
[0014] An object of this disclosure is to provide cel permeable inhibitors of PARG. SUMMARY
