SIK2 is a centrosome kinase required for mitotic spindle formation and a potential target for ovarian cancer therapy. Here we examine the effects of a novel small molecule SIK2 inhibitor, ARN-3236, on sensitivity to paclitaxel in ovarian cancer. SIK2 expression was determined in ovarian cancer tissue samples and cell lines. ARN-3236 was tested for its efficiency to inhibit growth and enhance paclitaxel sensitivity in cultures and xenografts of ovarian cancer cell lines. SIK2 siRNA and ARN-3236 were compared for their ability to produce nuclear-centrosome dissociation, inhibit centrosome splitting, block mitotic progression, induce tetraploidy, trigger apoptotic cell death and reduce AKT/survivin signaling. SIK2 is overexpressed in approximately 30% of high grade serous ovarian cancers. ARN-3236 inhibited growth of 10 ovarian cancer cell lines at an IC50 of 0.8 to 2.6 μM, where the IC50 of ARN-3236 was inversely correlated with endogenous SIK2 expression (Pearson’s r = −0.642, P = 0.03). ARN-3236 enhanced sensitivity to paclitaxel in 8 of 10 cell lines, as well as in SKOv3ip (P = 0.028) and OVCAR8 xenografts. In at least three cell lines a synergistic interaction was observed. ARN-3236 uncoupled the centrosome from the nucleus in interphase, blocked centrosome separation in mitosis, caused prometaphase arrest and induced apoptotic cell death and tetraploidy. ARN-3236 also inhibited AKT phosphorylation and attenuated survivin expression. ARN-3236 is the first orally available inhibitor of SIK2 to be evaluated against ovarian cancer in preclinical models and shows promise in inhibiting ovarian cancer growth and enhancing paclitaxel chemosensitivity.
