e19095 Backgrounds: Recent studies reported that zoledronic acid, a biphosphonate with proposed apoptotic activity, could cause a direct antitumor effect. Our prior study [J Clin Oncol 26: 2008 (May 20 suppl; abstr 19116)] reported that Zoledronic acid combined with Cisplatin shows significantly synergistic antitumor effects on lung cancer cell line A549 and subcutaneous implanted tumor on nude mice. Investigate whether zoledronic acid, augmented the cytotoxicity of cisplatin and/or paclitaxel in A549 lung cancer cell line. Methods: This cell line was subjected to different concentrations of the above chemotherapeutic agents and zoledronic acid. Cytotoxicity was assessed by the MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrasodium bromide) assay. Flow cytometry was used to examine cell cycle,cell apoptosis rate. Results: Zoledronic acid in in 50 micromolar (mM) concentration augmented the cytotoxicity by cisplatin in 10μmol/L and paclitaxel in 5μmol/L. Zoledronic acid could inhibit the proliferation of lung cancer cells in vitro,which was associated with arresting of G1 phase and inducing apoptosis by a time-dependent and dose-dependentmanner. The apoptosis rate of cell increased after zoledronic acid combined with cisplatin and/or paclitaxel. Conclusions: Zoledronic acid can induce apoptosis and block cell cycle of lung cancer cells. Zoledronic acid has also shown synergistic antitumor effects when combined with cisplatin and/or paclitaxel. The clinical potential of this finding should be further studied.
