Small-cell neuroendocrine cancers (SCNCs) are recalcitrant cancers arising from diverse primary sites that lack effective treatments. Using chemical genetic screens, we identified inhibition of ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3-related (ATR), primary activator of the replication stress response, and topoisomerase I (TOP1), nuclear enzyme that suppresses genomic instability, as synergistically cytotoxic in small cell lung cancer (SCLC). In a proof-of-concept study, we combined M6620 (berzosertib), first-in-class ATR inhibitor, and TOP1 inhibitor topotecan in patients with relapsed SCNCs. Objective response rate among patients with SCLC was 36% (9/25), achieving the primary efficacy endpoint. Durable tumor regressions were observed in patients with platinum-resistant SCNCs, typically fatal within weeks of recurrence. SCNCs with high neuroendocrine differentiation, characterized by enhanced replication stress, were more likely to respond. These findings highlight replication stress as a potentially transformative therapeutic SCNC vulnerability, paving the way for rational patient selection in these cancers, now treated as a single disease. Thomas et al identify DNA replication stress as a therapeutic vulnerability of small cell neuroendocrine cancers (SCNCs). SCNCs with high neuroendocrine and enhanced replication stress are more likely to respond to ATR and topoisomerase 1 inhibition, which yielded durable tumor regressions in patients with platinum-resistant tumors.
