PPAR gamma is a member of the nuclear receptor family for which agonist ligands have antigrowth effects. However, clinical studies using PPAR gamma ligands as a monotherapy failed to show a beneficial effect. Here we have studied the effects of PPAR gamma activation with chemotherapeutic agents in current use for specific cancers. We observed a striking synergy between rosiglitazone and platinum-based drugs in several different cancers both in vitro and using transplantable and chemically induced spontaneous tumor models. The effect appears to be due in part to PPAR gamma-mediated downregulation of metallothioneins, proteins that have been shown to be involved in resistance to platinum-based therapy. These data strongly suggest combining PPAR gamma agonists and platinum-based drugs for the treatment of certain human cancers.
