The CDK4/6 inhibitor palbociclib, combined with endocrine therapy, has been shown to be effective in postmenopausal women with oestrogen receptor positive, HER2-negative advanced or metastatic breast cancer. However, palbociclib is not as effective in the highly aggressive triple-negative breast cancer that lacks sensitivity to chemotherapy or endocrine therapy. We hypothesized that conjugation of the near-infrared dye MHI-148 with palbociclib can produce a potential theranostic in triple-negative as well as oestrogen receptor positive breast cancer cells. In our study, the conjugate was found to have enhanced activity in all mammalian cell lines tested in vitro. However, the conjugate was cytotoxic and did not induce G1 cell cycle arrest in breast cancer cells suggesting the mechanism of action differed from the parent compound palbociclib. The study highlights the importance of investigating the mechanism of conjugates of near-infrared dyes to therapeutic compounds as conjugation can potentially result in a change of mechanism or target, with an enhanced cytotoxic effect in this case.
