N2 - The standard of care for advanced head and neck cancers (HNSCCs) is radiochemotherapy, including cisplatin. This treatment results in a cure rate of approximately 85% for oropharyngeal HPV-positive HNSCCs, in contrast to only 50% for HPV-negative HNSCCs, and is accompanied by severe side effects for both entities. Therefore, innovative treatment modalities are required, resulting in a better outcome for HPV-negative HNSCCs, and lowering the adverse effects for both entities. The effect of the dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitor NVP-BEZ235 on a combined treatment with cisplatin and radiation was studied in six HPV-negative and six HPV-positive HNSCC cell lines. Cisplatin alone was slightly more effective in HPV-positive cells. This could be attributed to a defect in homologous recombination, as demonstrated by depleting RAD51. Solely for HPV-positive cells, pretreatment with BEZ235 resulted in enhanced cisplatin sensitivity. For the combination of cisplatin and radiation, additive effects were observed. However, when pretreated with BEZ235, this combination changed into a synergistic interaction, with a slightly stronger enhancement for HPV-positive cells. This increase could be attributed to a diminished degree of DSB repair in G1, as visualized via the detection of γH2AX/53BP1 foci. BEZ235 can be used to enhance the effect of combined treatment with cisplatin and radiation in both HPV-negative and -positive HNSCCs.
