Although chemotherapy remains a fundamental treatment for a wide variety of human tumors, the emergence of resistance to chemotherapy presents a major hurdle in tumor therapy. Therefore, the identification of novel chemotherapeutic agents is essential to overcome this limitation and develop more effective tumor therapies. In this study, we illustrate that a novel NQO1 bioactivatable drug, IP-DNQ, effectively eradicates NQO1-positive cancer cells by inducing both apoptosis and programmed necrosis, displaying remarkable antitumor potential compared with previously tested NQO1 bioactivatable drugs. Mechanistically, IP-DNQ exterminates NQO1-positive cancer cells by generating excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS), thereby inducing DNA damage, PARP1 hyperactivation, and catastrophic energy loss. Overall, this study showcases the incredible antitumor efficacy of IP-DNQ against NQO1-positive cancer cells. Lung and breast cancers rank as two of the most common and lethal tumors, accounting for a substantial number of cancer-related deaths worldwide. While the past two decades have witnessed promising progress in tumor therapy, developing targeted tumor therapies continues to pose a significant challenge. NAD(P)H quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1), a two-electron reductase, has been reported as a promising therapeutic target across various solid tumors. β-Lapachone (β-Lap) and deoxynyboquinone (DNQ) are two NQO1 bioactivatable drugs that have demonstrated potent antitumor effects. However, their curative efficacy has been constrained by adverse effects and moderate lethality. To enhance the curative potential of NQO1 bioactivatable drugs, we developed a novel DNQ derivative termed isopentyl-deoxynyboquinone (IP-DNQ). Our study revealed that IP-DNQ treatment significantly increased reactive oxygen species generation, leading to double-strand break (DSB) formation, PARP1 hyperactivation, and catastrophic energy loss. Notably, we discovered that this novel drug induced both apoptosis and programmed necrosis events, which makes it entirely distinct from other NQO1 bioactivatable drugs. Furthermore, IP-DNQ monotherapy demonstrated significant antitumor efficacy and extended mice survival in A549 orthotopic xenograft models. Lastly, we identified that in mice IP-DNQ levels were significantly elevated in the plasma and tumor compared with IB-DNQ levels. This study provides novel preclinical evidence supporting IP-DNQ efficacy in NQO1+ NSCLC and breast cancer cells.
