الوصف: Cancer treatment by inhibiting the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway using monoclonal antibodies has made great advances as it showed long-lasting antitumor responses in a wide range of cancers. However, antibodies exhibit several disadvantages, which include low permeability, immune-related adverse effects, complex synthetic procedures, and high treatment costs. Hence, small-molecule inhibitors can be used as alternatives; however, no small molecule with in vivo activity has been reported. In addition, there are many challenges in developing a new drug, including the timeline and escalating cost. Therefore, repurposing an approved drug offers advantages over the development of an entirely new drug. Herein, we identify an FDA-approved small-molecule drug, Ponatinib, as a PD-L1 inhibitor via virtual drug screening of the ZINC database. Ponatinib showed stable binding with PD-L1, with the highest binding energy among all of the screened FDA-approved drugs. The binding of Ponatinib with PD-L1 was supported by a fluorescence quenching assay and immunofluorescence study. Further, we compared the in vivo antitumor efficacy of Ponatinib with a commercially available anti-PD-L1 antibody in the murine melanoma model. Ponatinib was found to be more efficient in delaying tumor growth than the anti-PD-L1 antibody. Furthermore, Ponatinib also reduced the expression of PD-L1 in tumors and increased the T-cell population. Interestingly, splenocytes isolated from Ponatinib-treated mice showed enhanced cytotoxic T-cell (CTL) activity against B16-F10 cells. However, Ponatinib itself did not have any direct toxic effect on cancer cells in vitro . These findings suggest that Ponatinib can be used as a potent small-molecule inhibitor of PD-L1 to overcome the disadvantages associated with antibodies.
