Rational therapeutic approaches based on synthetic lethality may improve cancer management. Based on a high-throughput drug screen, we provide preclinical proof of concept that targeting the mitochondrial Hsp90 chaperone network (mtHsp90) and inhibition of Bcl-2, Bcl-xL and Mcl-1 is sufficient to elicit synthetic lethality in tumors recalcitrant to therapy. Our analyses focused on BH3 mimetics that are broad acting (ABT263 and Obatoclax) or selective (ABT199, WEHI-539 and A1210477), along with the established mitochondrial matrix chaperone inhibitor Gamitrinib-TPP. Drug combinations were tested in various therapy-resistant tumors in vitro and in vivo in murine model systems of melanoma, triple-negative breast cancer and patient-derived orthotopic xenografts of human glioblastoma (PDX). We found that combining BH3-mimetics and Gamitrinib-TPP blunted cellular proliferation in a synergistic manner by massive activation of intrinsic apoptosis. In like manner, suppressing either Bcl-2, Bcl-xL or Mcl-1 recapitulated the effects of BH3-mimetics and enhanced the effects of Gamitrinib-TPP. Mechanistic investigations revealed that Gamitrinib-TPP activated a PERK-dependent integrated stress response which activated the pro-apoptotic BH3 protein Noxa and its downstream targets Usp9X and Mcl-1. Notably, in the PDX glioblastoma and BRAFi-resistant melanoma models, this drug combination safely and significantly extended host survival. Our results show how combining mitochondrial chaperone and Bcl-2 family inhibitors can synergize to safely degrade the growth of tumors recalcitrant to other treatments.
