Abstract

Objectives Despite recent advances in the treatment of metastatic prostate can- cer, survival rates are low and treatment options are limited to chemotherapy and hormonal therapy. 131I-MIP-1095 is a recently developed prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeting, small molecular weight radiopharmaceuti- cal which has anti-tumour activity as a single agent. Our purpose was to deter- mine in vitro the potential benefit to be gained by combining 131I-MIP-1095 with cytotoxic drug treatments. Methods Various cytotoxic agents were evaluated in combination with 131I- MIP-1095 for their capacity to delay the growth of LNCaP cells cultured as multicellular tumour spheroids. Two end-points were used to assess treatment efficacy: (i) the time required for doubling of spheroid volume and (ii) the area under the volume–time growth curves. Key findings The PARP-1 inhibitor olaparib, the topoisomerase I inhibitor topotecan, the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib, the inhibitor of the P53– MDM2 interaction nutlin-3 and the copper-chelated form of the oxidising agent disulfiram (DSF:Cu) all significantly enhanced the inhibition of the growth of spheroids induced by 131I-MIP-1095. However, the Chk1 inhibitor AZD7762 failed to potentiate the effect of 131I-MIP-1095. Conclusions These results indicate that targeted radiotherapy of prostate cancer may be optimised by combining its administration with chemotherapy.
