Preclinical systemic pharmacokinetics, dose-proportionality, and CNS distribution of the ATM inhibitor WSD0628, a novel radiosensitizer for the treatment of brain tumors [Metabolism, Transport, and Pharmacogenetics]

ASPET

Ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) kinase is a key regulator of DSB repair, and ATM inhibitors are being explored as radiosensitizers for various tumors, including primary and metastatic brain tumors. Radiation therapy, a standard treatment option for many cancer patients, induces DNA double strand breaks (DSBs), leading to cell death.

ASPET

Various DDR inhibitors, targeting the key regulators of these pathways such as ataxia telangiectasia mutated and Rad3-related (ATR), are being explored as radio- and chemo-sensitizers. Standard of care GBM therapies include radiation and cytotoxic chemotherapy that lead to DNA damage.
