BACKGROUND There has been considerable interest in repurposing the poly ADP ribose polymerase inhibitor and purported radiosensitiser olaparib (Lynparza), with a recent dose escalation study of olaparib plus temozolomide in recurrent GBM showing good tolerance. Due to systemic therapy-associated caveats such as dose-limiting toxicities and blood-brain-barrier penetration, here we assess localised post-surgical delivery of olaparib from our previously developed PLGA/PEG thermo-sensitive biodegradable paste. MATERIAL AND METHODS Metabolic and clonogenic assays were used to assess effects on proliferation and clonal growth upon in vitro glioma exposure to olaparib. Flow cytometry and Annexin V/Propidium iodide were used to determine apoptosis. The 9L high-grade glioma orthotopic allograft model was utilised to assess survival upon intra-cavity olaparib delivery. RESULTS Metabolic and clonogenic assays revealed impaired proliferation and clonal growth respectively, upon acute exposure of high-grade glioma cells to olaparib (3–5µM), an effect dramatically potentiated with 3Gy radiation. Flow cytometry of Annexin V+/Propidium iodide+ rodent and human high-grade glioma cells, revealed a significant cell proportion increase at late stage apoptosis when exposed to 2–3µM olaparib and 3Gy radiation (relative to untreated, olaparib alone or radiation alone). A high-grade glioma orthotopic allograft study revealed a significant overall survival benefit of locally-delivered 10% and 20% w/w (drug:polymer ratio) olaparib via PLGA/PEG paste post-surgery with adjuvant radiotherapy, compared to surgery/oral temozolomide/radiotherapy (GBM standard-of-care) and surgery/systemic olaparib (95 vs. 44 vs. 30 days respectively). A more pronounced survival benefit, as measured by number of animals surviving long-term, was observed with combined PLGA/PEG/olaparib/temozolomide/radiotherapy or PLGA/PEG/olaparib/etoposide/radiotherapy, relative to standard-of-care (95 vs. 44 days). Clinical correlation was determined using RNAseq data from 10 GBM patients, showing significantly elevated levels of apoptosis-inducing factor-1 in 5-aminolevulinic acid (5ALA)+ fluorescence-activated cell sorted populations (i.e. purified tumour cells from the invasive margin), relative to 5ALA- cells, confirming PARP-1 activity in infiltrative tumour cells. CONCLUSION Collectively our data supports a clinical rationale for localised olaparib delivery with adjuvant radiotherapy.
