Profile of veliparib and its potential in the treatment of solid tumors

Abstract: Inhibition of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) is an attractive therapeutic strategy because of the importance of this pathway in restoring DNA damage. Small-molecule inhibitors of PARP appear most effective when used to treat tumors with underlying defects in DNA repair, or when combined with DNA-damaging agents. Veliparib is one of several recently developed oral inhibitors of PARP currently in clinical trials. This review summarizes the pharmacology, mechanisms of action, toxicity, and activity of velipar… Show more

“…The structure is shown in figure 2. Veliparib inhibits both PARP-1 and PARP-2 with Kis (inhibitory constants) of 5.2 and 2.9nM/L, respectively (Wagner, 2015). As seen with many PARP inhibitors, inhibition by Veliparib is quite selective and pharmacologically relevant concentration of Veliparib doesn't produce substantial effects on other receptors or ion channels.…”

“…As seen with many PARP inhibitors, inhibition by Veliparib is quite selective and pharmacologically relevant concentration of Veliparib doesn't produce substantial effects on other receptors or ion channels. Veliparib is used to treat ovarian cancer, oral cancer, basal like breast cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer (Pahuja et al, 2015;Wagner, 2015).…”

“…This strategy has facilitated the approval of olaparib (Figure 1) for advanced and relapsed ovarian cancer with germline BRCA mutations. A number of PARP-1 inhibitors have been discovered and several of them are in different stages of clinical trials, including veliparib [11], rucaparib [12] and niraparib ( Figure 1). This brings hope for the treatment of other advanced refractory cancers, such as triple-negative breast, pancreatic, and prostate cancers [13][14][15].…”

“…About the DNA damage response, a recently developed class of drugs, the poly(ADPribose) polymerase-inhibitors (PARPi), are currently being developed in clinical trials as a targeted treatment, acting on the pathway of DNA repair [13]. PARP-1 is a well-characterized protein in the PARP family: through the base excision repair pathway, it is critical to the repair of single-strand DNA breaks [13][14][15]. The inhibition of PARP conducts to the accumulation of single-strand breaks, resulting in double-strand breaks.…”

“…The inhibition of PARP conducts to the accumulation of single-strand breaks, resulting in double-strand breaks. In cells with defective HR (homologous recombination) gene, like the BRCA(Breast Cancer gene)-mutations carriers, PARP inhibition can lead to chromosomal instability, cell cycle arrest and subsequent apoptosis [14]. Recently, similarly to BRCA, also ARID1A mutations have been associated with defects in DNA repair, indicating tumors with such mutations as another possible target of PARPi [15].…”
