CAY10760 is an inhibitor of the protein-protein interaction between RAD51 recombinase and BRCA2 (EC50= 19 μM in a cell-free competitive ELISA).1It decreases homologous recombination by 54% in wild-typeBRCA2-expressing BxPC-3 pancreatic cancer cells when used at a concentration of 20 μM. CAY10760 (20 μM) decreases proliferation of BxPC-3, as well as mutantBRCA2-expressing Capan-1, cancer cells when used alone or in combination with the poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor olaparib . 1.Bagnolini, G., Milano, D., Manerba, M., et al.Synthetic lethality in pancreatic cancer: Discovery of a new RAD51-BRCA2 small molecule disruptor that inhibits homologous recombination and synergizes with olaparibJ.

SC10914 is a highly potent PARP inhibitor (PARP1 IC50 = 7.87 nM) with potent anti-proliferative activity against human BRCA deficient tumor cells (MDA-MB-436, BRCA1 deficient, IC50 = 4.03 nM, Capan-1 BRCA2 deficient, IC50 = 11.66 nM) and PTEN deficient tumor cells (HGC-27,PTEN deficient, IC50 = 0.35 μM). SC10914 showed potent anti-tumor activity in BRCA1 2 mutant tumor models and better pharmacokinetics profile has the potential to be selected as the clinical candidate for the treatment of treatment of BRCA1 2 deficient cancers.
