    Abstract:
    Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm primarily due to the presence of the BCR-ABL fusion gene that produces the constitutively active protein, BCR-ABL. Imatinib, a BCR-ABL-targeted drug, is a first-line drug for the treatment of CML. Resistance to imatinib occurs as a result of mutations in the BCR-ABL kinase domains. In this study, we evaluated S116836, a novel BCR-ABL inhibitor, for its anti-cancer efficacy in the wild-type (WT) and T315I mutant BCR-ABL. S116836 was efficacious in BaF3 cells with WT or T315I mutated BCR-ABL genotypes. S116836 inhibits the phosphorylation of BCR-ABL and its downstream signaling in BaF3/WT and BaF3/T315I cells. Mechanistically, S116836 arrests the cells in the G0/G1 phase of cell cycle, induces apoptosis, increases ROS production, and decreases GSH production in BaF3/WT and BaF3/T315I cells. Moreover, in mouse tumor xenografts, S116836 significantly inhibits the growth and volume of tumors expressing the WT or T315I mutant BCR-ABL without causing significant cardiotoxicity. Overall, our results indicate that S116836 significantly inhibits the imatinib-resistant T315I BCR-ABL mutation and could be a novel drug candidate for treating imatinib-resistant CML patients.
