项目摘要

! ! ! ! PROJECT SUMMARY Hormonal therapies have been revolutionary in the treatment of women with estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancers, greatly enhancing survival. ER-targeted hormonal therapies include selective estrogen receptor modulators SERMs, such as tamoxifen, and selective estrogen receptor downregulators (SERDs), such as fulvestrant, whereas aromatase inhibitors block the biosynthesis of estrogen. These therapies have significant side effects, and their prolonged use can lead to chemoresistance in about one- third of treated women, often resulting in more aggressive cancers. Furthermore, tamoxifen use is associated with increased incidence of endometrial thickening and hyperplasia, polyps and cancer. Recent studies have identified novel pathways involving the 7-transmembrane spanning G protein-coupled receptor GPER in patients undergoing SERM/SERD therapies. Cross-reactive pharmacological agonism of GPER contributes to both hormonal resistance and off-target effects in the uterus as all clinically approved anti- estrogens act as agonists for GPER and stimulate these pathways. This critical issue of ER/GPER selectivity has not been addressed in the development of SERM and SERD drugs. In our previous work, we discovered and characterized novel selective ligands for GPER that do not bind ERa or ERb.Recently, we discovered a novel small molecule that for the very first-time targets ER without interference of GPER. As current anti-estrogens do not discriminate between ERa/b and GPER, our newly identified small molecule affords the opportunity to create novel ligands and therapeutic agents to selectively target ERa. Through chemical modifications to this first-generation ERa-selective compound, we have improved the affinity, receptor-selectivity and antagonist/agonist profile with the ultimate goal of creating truly ERa- selective antagonists. The specific aims of this proposal are to: 1. Synthesize and resolve the bioactive enantiomer of optimized ERa-targeted AB-SERD compounds with GPER anti-selectivity; 2. Prioritize compounds through in vitro methods including receptor binding, cell signaling, proliferation and toxicity and 3. Determine in vivo anti-tumor and ADMET properties of lead compounds, employing ER-dependent and anti-hormone-resistant transgenic, xenograft and PDX tumors. The successful completion of these studies will identify innovative enantiospecific compounds as unique pharmacological tools for delineating the individual functions of ER and GPER, and also initiating the development of first-in-class therapeutic agents, with the goal of reducing anti-hormone resistant recurrence of breast cancer, enhancing survival and the quality of life for the greater than 200,000 women annually diagnosed with ER-positive breast cancer. !"#$%&'()*++,"-./01'",&'( !,2%(3(

呢呢呢呢项目摘要激素疗法在治疗雌激素受体阳性的女性方面具有革命性（ER+）乳腺癌，大大提高了生存。靶向ER的荷尔蒙疗法包括选择性雌激素受体调节剂Serm，例如他莫昔芬和选择性雌激素受体下调器（SERDS），例如Fulvestrant，而芳香酶抑制剂阻止了雌激素的生物合成。这些疗法具有明显的副作用，其长时间使用可以导致大约1- 三分之一的经过治疗的妇女，通常导致更具侵略性的癌症。此外，他莫昔芬的使用是与子宫内膜增厚和增生，息肉和癌症的发生率增加有关。最近的研究已经确定了涉及跨越G蛋白偶联受体的7跨膜的新途径接受SERM/SERD疗法的患者的GPER。 GPER的交叉反应性药理学激动在所有临床批准的抗 - 雌激素充当GPER的激动剂并刺激这些途径。 ER/GPER这个关键问题在Serm和Serd药物的发展中尚未解决选择性。在我们以前的工作中，我们发现并表征了GPER的新型选择性配体，这些配体不结合ERA或ERB。发现了一个新型的小分子，该分子是第一次靶向ER而不会干扰GPER。由于当前的抗雌激素不会区分ERA/B和GPER，因此我们新发现的小分子提供了创建新颖的配体和治疗剂以选择性靶向时代的机会。通过对这种第一代时代选择化合物的化学修饰，我们改善了亲和力，受体选择性和对抗/激动剂的概况，其最终目标是创建真正的时代 - 选择性拮抗剂。该提案的具体目的是：1。合成和解决生物活性具有GPER抗选择性的优化靶向AB-Serd化合物的对映异构体； 2。优先通过体外方法包括受体结合，细胞信号传导，增殖和毒性以及 3。确定使用ER依赖性和抗激素抗性转基因，异种移植和PDX肿瘤。这些研究的成功完成将确定创新的对映体化合物是独特的药理学工具，用于描述ER和GPER的各个功能，并启动开发一流的治疗剂，目的是减少抗激素的复发乳腺癌，每年超过200,000名女性的生存和生活质量被诊断为ER阳性乳腺癌。！“＃$％＆'（）*++，” - 。/01'，＆'（！
