ABSTRACT
Over 95% of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDAC) harbor oncogenic mutations in K-Ras. Upon treatment with K-Ras inhibitors, PDAC cancer cells undergo metabolic reprogramming towards an oxidative phosphorylation-dependent, drug-resistant state. However, direct inhibition of complex I is poorly tolerated in patients due to on-target induction of peripheral neuropathy. In this work, we develop molecular glue degraders against ZBTB11, a C2H2 zinc finger transcription factor that regulates the nuclear transcription of components of the mitoribosome and electron transport chain. Our ZBTB11 degraders leverage the differences in demand for biogenesis of mitochondrial components between human neurons and rapidly-dividing pancreatic cancer cells, to selectively target the K-Ras inhibitor resistant state in PDAC. Combination treatment of both K-Ras inhibitor-resistant cell lines and multidrug resistant patient-derived organoids resulted in superior anti-cancer activity compared to single agent treatment, while sparing hiPSC-derived neurons. Proteomic and stable isotope tracing studies revealed mitoribosome depletion and impairment of the TCA cycle as key events that mediate this response. Together, this work validates ZBTB11 as a vulnerability in K-Ras inhibitor-resistant PDAC and provides a suite of molecular glue degrader tool compounds to investigate its function.
