摘要
Expression of indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), an immunosuppressive enzyme in human tumors, leads to immune evasion and tumor tolerance. IDO is therefore a tumor immunotherapeutic target, and several IDO inhibitors are currently undergoing clinical trials. ID inhibitors can enhance the efficacy of common cancer chemotherapeutics. Here we investigate Pt(IV)-(D)-1-methyltryptophan conjugates 1 and 2 for combined immunomodulation and DNA cross-link-triggered apoptosis for cancer "immuno-chemotherapy". Compound 2 effectively kills hormone-dependent, cisplatin-resistant human ovarian cancer cells, inhibiting IDO by transcriptional deregulation of the autocrine-signaling loop IDOAHR-IL6, which blocks kynurenine production and promotes T-cell proliferation. Additionally, 1 and 2 display low toxicity in mice and are stable in blood. To our knowledge, this construct is the first Pt drug candidate with immune checkpoint blockade properties.
