BACKGROUND/AIM: Cancer stem cells (CSCs) contribute significantly to the poor prognosis of patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) due to their roles in drug resistance and tumor metastasis. Autotaxin (ATX) plays a pivotal role in the maintenance of the CSC-like properties of EOC tumors. BBT-877 is a novel ATX inhibitor used in clinical treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. However, the effects of BBT-877 on drug resistance and metastasis in ovarian CSCs remain unknown. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of BBT-877 on drug resistance and intraperitoneal metastasis of EOC.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Spheroid-forming CSCs, which were isolated from two EOC cell lines, A2780 and SKOV3, were investigated by cell viability, western blot, PCR, Spheroid-forming assay, and in vivo experiments.
RESULTS: Spheroid-forming CSCs exhibited increased CSC-like properties and paclitaxel (PTX) resistance. BBT-877 treatment inhibited the viability of spheroid-forming CSCs more potently than that of adherent ovarian cancer cell lines. Combinatorial treatment with BBT-877 and PTX significantly attenuated the viability of spheroid-forming CSCs. In a SKOV3 cells-derived intraperitoneal metastasis model, BBT-877 treatment reduced the number of metastatic tumor nodes, while combinatorial treatment with BBT-877 and PTX more potently attenuated the formation of metastatic nodes and accumulation of ascitic fluid.
CONCLUSION: These results suggest that BBT-877 can be combined with conventional anticancer drugs for the treatment of patients with recurrent or drug-resistant EOC.
