AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

There is a need for new USP1 inhibitors to treat cancers such as osteosarcoma, colorectal, non-small cell lung, and gastric cancers, as overexpression of USP1 is commonly observed in these cancers and blockade of USP1 induces apoptosis and sensitizes cancer cells to platinum-, DNA-damaging-, and radiation-induced death.

Method used

Compositions comprising USP1 inhibitors, represented by specific compounds of formula (I) and (II), or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, are developed to modulate USP1 activity and treat cancer by administering a therapeutically effective amount to subjects, particularly those with overexpression of USP1.

Benefits of technology

The USP1 inhibitors effectively inhibit USP1 activity, leading to apoptosis in cancer cells and sensitizing them to platinum-, DNA-damaging-, and radiation-induced death, thereby providing a therapeutic approach for treating cancers with overexpression of USP1.

[0002] COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING USP1 INHIBITORS AND METHODS OF USING THE SAME CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0003] This application claims the benefit of priority to U. S. Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 63 / 720,168, filed on November 13, 2024, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties.

[0004] TECHNICAL FIELD

[0005] The subject matter described herein relates to compositions comprising Ubiquitin-Specific Protease 1 (USP1) inhibitors and methods of using the same.

[0006] BACKGROUND

[0007] The USP1 gene encodes a deubiquitinase that is directly involved in DNA damage repair by regulating the ubiquitination of key regulators like PCNA and FANCD2. Overexpression of USP1 is commonly observed in osteosarcoma, colorectal, non-small cell lung, and gastric cancers, and blockade of USP1 induces apoptosis in many cancers. Moreover, several USP1 inhibitors sensitize cancer cells to platinum-, DNA-damaging-, and radiation-induced death. Given the well-established role USP1 as a selective anti-cancer target for inhibition, there remains a need in the art for new USP1 inhibitors for use in the treatment of such cancers.
