Purpose Our preclinical work identified depletion of ATR as a top candidate for
topoisomerase 1 (TOP1) inhibitor synthetic lethality and showed that ATR inhibition
sensitizes tumors to TOP1 inhibitors. We hypothesized that a combination of selective ATR
inhibitor M6620 (previously VX-970) and topotecan, a selective TOP1 inhibitor, would be
tolerable and active, particularly in tumors with high replicative stress.
