AMN107 (Novartis Pharmaceuticals, Basel, Switzerland) has potent in vitro and in vivo activity against the unmutated and most common mutant forms of Bcr-Abl. Treatment with the histone deacetylase inhibitor LBH589 (Novartis) depletes Bcr-Abl levels. We determined the effects of AMN107 and/or LBH589 in Bcr-Ablexpressing human K562 and LAMA-84 cells, as well as in primary chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) cells. AMN107 was more potent than imatinib mesylate (IM) in inhibiting Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase (TK) activity and attenuating p-STAT5, p-AKT, Bcl-xL, and c-Myc levels in K562 and LAMA-84 cells. Cotreatment with LBH589 and AMN107 exerted synergistic apoptotic effects with more attenuation of p-STAT5, p-ERK1/2, c-Myc, and Bcl-xL and increases in p27 and Bim levels. LBH589 attenuated Bcr-Abl levels and induced apoptosis of mouse pro-B BaF3 cells containing ectopic expression of Bcr-Abl or the IM-resistant, point-mutant Bcr-AblT315I and Bcr-AblE255K. Treatment with LBH589 also depleted Bcr-Abl levels and induced apoptosis of IM-resistant primary human CML cells, including those with expression of Bcr-AblT315I. As compared with either agent alone, cotreatment with AMN107 and LBH589 induced more loss of cell viability of primary IM-resistant CML cells. Thus, cotreatment with LBH589 and AMN107 is active against cultured or primary IM-resistant CML cells, including those with expression of Bcr-AblT315I.
