Development of β-Lapachone prodrugs for therapy against human cancer cells with elevated NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 levels

β-Lapachone, an o-naphthoquinone, induces a novel caspase- and p53-independent apoptotic pathway dependent on NAD (P) H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1). NQO1 reduces β-lapachone to an unstable hydroquinone that rapidly undergoes a two-step oxidation back to the parent compound, perpetuating a futile...

NQO1 reduces β-lapachone to an unstable hydroquinone that rapidly undergoes a two-step oxidation back to the parent compound, perpetuating a futile redox cycle. A deficiency or inhibition of NQO1 rendered cells resistant to beta;-lapachone. Thus, β-lapachone has great potential for the treatment of specific cancers with elevated NQO1 levels (e.g., breast, non - small cell lung, pancreatic, colon, and prostate cancers). We report the development of mono(arylimino) derivatives of β-lapachone as potential prodrugs. These derivatives are relatively nontoxic and not substrates for NQO1 when initially diluted in water. In solution, however, they undergo hydrolytic conversion to β-lapachone at rates dependent on the electron-withdrawing strength of their substituent groups and pH of the diluent. NQO1 enzyme assays, UV-visible spectrophotometry, high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry, and nuclear magnetic resonance analyses confirmed and monitored conversion of each derivative to β-lapachone. Once converted, β-lapachone derivatives caused NQO1-dependent, μ-calpain-mediated cell death in human cancer cells identical to that caused by β-lapachone. Interestingly, coadministration of N-acetyt-L-cysteine prevented derivative-induced cytotoxicity but did not affect β-lapachone lethality. Nuclear magnetic resonance analyses indicated that prevention of β-lapachone derivative cytotoxicity was the result of direct modification of these derivatives by N-acetyl-L-cysteine, preventing their conversion to β-lapachone. The use of β-lapachone mono(arylimino) prodrug derivatives, or more specifically a derivative converted in a tumor-specific manner (i.e., in the acidic local environment of the tumor tissue), should reduce normal tissue toxicity while eliciting tumor-selective cell killing by NQO1 bioactivation. © 2005 American Association for Cancer Research.
