The design of multi-target ligands has become an innovative approach for the identification of effective therapeutic treatments against complex diseases, such as cancer. Recent studies have demonstrated that the combined inhibition of Hsp90 and B-Raf provides synergistic effects against several types of cancers. Moreover, it has been reported that PDHK1, which presents an ATP-binding pocket similar to that of Hsp90, plays an important role in tumor initiation, maintenance and progression, participating also to the senescence process induced by B-Raf oncogenic proteins. Based on these premises, the simultaneous inhibition of these targets may provide several benefits for the treatment of cancer. In this work, we set up a design strategy including the assembly and integration of molecular fragments known to be important for binding to the Hsp90, PDHK1 and B-Raf targets, aided by molecular docking for the selection of a set of compounds potentially able to exert Hsp90-B-Raf-PDHK1 multi-target activities. The designed compounds were synthesized and experimentally validated in vitro. According to the in vitro assays, compounds 4 a, 4 d and 4 e potently inhibited Hsp90 and moderately inhibited the PDHK1 kinase. Finally, molecular dynamics simulations were performed to provide further insights into the structural basis of their multi-target activity.

Heat-shock protein 90 (HSP90) is a molecular chaperone that activates oncogenic transformation in several solid tumors, including lung and breast cancers. Ganetespib, a most promising candidate among several HSP90 inhibitors under clinical trials, has entered Phase III clinical trials for cancer therapy. Despite numerous evidences validating HSP90 as a target of anticancer, there are few studies on PET agents targeting oncogenic HSP90. In this study, we synthesized and biologically evaluated a novel 18F-labeled 5-resorcinolic triazolone derivative (1, [18F]PTP-Ganetespib) based on ganetespib. [18F]PTP-Ganetespib was labeled by click chemistry of Ganetespib-PEG-Alkyne (10) and [18F]PEG-N3 (11) with 37.3 ± 5.11% of radiochemical yield and 99.7 ± 0.09% of radiochemical purity. [18F]PTP-Ganetespib showed proper LogP (0.96 ± 0.06) and good stability in human serum over 97% for 2 h. [18F]PTP-Ganetespib showed high uptakes in breast cancer cells containing triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) MDA-MB-231 and Her2-negative MCF-7 cells, which are target breast cancer cell lines of HSP90 inhibitor, ganetespib, as an anticancer. Blocking of HSP90 by the pretreatment of ganetespib exhibited significantly decreased accumulation of [18F]PTP-Ganetespib in MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells, indicating the specific binding of [18F]PTP-Ganetespib to MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells with high HSP90 expression. In the biodistribution and microPET imaging studies, the initial uptake into tumor was weaker than in other thoracic and abdominal organs, but [18F]PTP-Ganetespib was retained relatively longer in the tumor than other organs. The uptake of [18F]PTP-Ganetespib in tumors was not sufficient for further development as a tumor-specific PET imaging agent by itself, but this preliminary PET imaging study of [18F]PTP-Ganetespib can be basis for developing new PET imaging agents based on HSP90 inhibitor, ganetespib.
