The development of multidrug resistance (MDR) in patients suffering cancer remains a significant clinical challenge, with drug efflux by ABC (ATP-binding cassette) transporters contributing significantly. Strategies to circumvent the reduced drug accumulation conferred by these polyspecific efflux transporters have relied on attempts to develop drugs that bypass extrusion (often with a sacrifice in activity) or the exploration of clinical inhibitors that, although showing promise in vitro, have not translated to the clinic. Alterations that confer selective advantage during the evolution of cancer cells might also create vulnerabilities that can be exploited therapeutically. 1 As defined by Szybalski and Bryson, collateral sensitivity is a “phenomenon in drug-resistant cells (prokaryotic or eukaryotic) identified during most in vitro studies...[whereby] the development of resistance in cells to one agent can confer higher sensitivity to an alternate agent than seen in the original (parental) line”. 2 In other words, the resistant cell line is more sensitive to a cytotoxin than the parental line from which it is derived (Figure 1). From this perspective, resistance can be interpreted as a trait that could be targeted by new drugs. In this review, we discuss general mechanisms underlying collateral sensitivity and focus on small molecules reported to elicit increased toxicity in cells overexpressing one of the three major multidrug transporters. Such molecules (termed MDR-selective compounds) target multidrug-resistant cycling cells, suggesting that MDR ABC transporters could be considered as the ultimate “Achilles’ heel” the exquisite spot to fatally wound a multidrug-resistant cancer cell. Herein, we discuss the potential of this emerging technology, cataloging MDR-selective compounds reported in the literature and highlighting chemical features that are associated with MDR-selective toxicity.
