Abstract:
The invention provides methods for overriding cell cycle arrest in a tumor cell, which comprise inducing DNA damage in the cell, and contacting the cell with an amount of bosutinib or a bosutinib isomer effective to inhibit one or more kinase constituents of a DNA damage checkpoint pathway. The invention also provides novel bosutinib isomers, as well as compositions of the novel isomers and the bosutinib isomer 3,5-dichloro-4-methoxyaniline.

Abstract:
The invention provides methods for enhancing the cytotoxicity of DNA damage in cancer cells that express thymine DNA glycosylase, and treating tumors accordingly. The methods comprise inhibiting the expression or biologic activity of thymine DNA glycosylase, and inducing DNA damage in the cancer cells. DNA damage may be induced by administration of bendamustine or gemcitabine to the cancer cells.
