PARP inhibitors enhance reovirus-mediated cell killing through the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC) with an associated NF-κB-regulated immune response
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Oncolytic Reovirus type 3 Dearing (RT3D), is a naturally occurring double-stranded (ds) RNA virus that is under development as an oncolytic immunotherapy We used an unbiased high-throughput cytotoxicity screen of different targeted therapeutic agents with the aim of identifying potential drug-viral sensitizers to enhance RT3D tumour killing. Talazoparib, a clinical poly(ADP)-ribose polymerase 1 (PARP-1) inhibitor, was identified as a top hit and found to cause profound sensitisation to RT3D. This effect was not seen with other classes of oncolytic virus and was not mediated by enhanced viral replication or PARP inhibitor-related effects on the DNA damage response. RT3D interacts with retinoic acid-induced gene-1 (RIG-I) and activates PARP-1, with consequent PARylation of components of the extrinsic apoptosis pathway. Pharmacological and genetic inhibition of PARP-1 abrogates this PARylation and increases levels of extrinsic apoptosis, NF-kB signalling and pro-inflammatory cell death. Direct interaction between PARP-1 and RIG-I following RT3D/talazoparib treatment is a key factor in activating downstream signaling pathways that lead to IFN-β and TNF-α/TRAIL production which, in turn, amplify the therapeutic effect through positive feedback. Critically, it was possible to phenocopy the effect of RT3D through the use of non-viral ds-RNA therapy and RIG-I agonism. In in vivo studies, we demonstrated profound combinatorial efficacy of RT3D and talazoparib in human A375 melanoma in immunodeficient mice. More impressively, in immunocompetent mouse models of 4434 murine melanoma, we achieved 100% tumour control and protection from subsequent tumour rechallenge with the combination regimen. Correlative immunophenotyping confirmed significant innate and adaptive immune activation with the combination of RT3D and PARP inhibition. Taken together, these data provide a clear line of sight to clinical translation of combined regimens of PARP inhibition or ds-RNA agonism, with either viral or non-viral agents, in tumour types beyond the relatively narrow confines of current licensed indications for PARP inhibition.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
