Résumé

To examine the cytotoxicity of epigenetic drugs independently and in combination with chemotherapy on ovarian cancer cells Caov-3, and to investigate their ability to acquire chemoresistance in omental microenvironments and whether epigenetic drugs can counteract this chemoresistance. A pilot study was conducted in Cooper University Hospital, NJ, USA from August 1 to October 31, 2017, among women undergoing surgeries for uterine and ovarian cancer. Cytotoxicity assays using IC Three women met the eligibility criteria and were included in the study. Epigenetic drugs alone or in combination with chemotherapy showed 85%-94% increased cytotoxicity against Caov-3 (P≤0.005). Metastatic OASCs conditioned medium showed up to 27-fold increase in tumorigenic factors and promoted chemoresistance (28%-35%; P < 0.050) against chemotherapy. Epigenetic therapy resulted in up to a 40-fold reversal in this chemoresistance. Epigenetic therapies could have an important role in treating a subgroup of ovarian cancer patients that demonstrate resistance to first-line chemotherapy.
