Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease that represents the most common cancer around the world; it comprises 12% of new cases according to the World Health Organization. Despite new approaches in early diagnosis and current treatment, breast cancer is still the leading cause of death for cancer mortality. New targeted therapies against key signalling transduction molecules are required. Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) regulates multiple biological functions such as proliferation, survival, migration, and growth. It is well established that PI3K isoform-selective inhibitors show fewer toxic side effects compared to broad spectrum inhibition of PI3K (pan-PI3K inhibitors). Therefore, we tested the PI3K p110δ-selective inhibitor, IC87114, and Vps34-selective inhibitor, Vps34-IN1, on the breast cancer cell lines MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231, representing hormone-responsive and triple-negative breast cancer cells, respectively. Our data show that both inhibitors decreased migration of MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells, and Vps34 also significantly impacted MCF-7 cell proliferation. Three-dimensional (3D) in vitro culture models show that IC87114 and Vps34-IN1 treatment reduced the growth of MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells in 3D tumour spheroid cultures. This study identifies IC87114 and Vps34-IN1 as potential therapeutic approaches in breast cancer.
