ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to compositions and methods for interfering with the DNA repair of double strand breaks (DSBs). The invention discloses novel double-stranded nucleic acid molecules. that act as baits and hijack the holocomplex of enzymes responsible of DNA DSB sensing, signaling and/or repair pathways, in particular the non homologous end joining (NHEJ) pathway of DSB repair.The invention discloses the use of these molecules as adjuvant compositions to be used in association with a DNA breaking treatment, particularly radiotherapy or chemotherapy, in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, in an efficient amount to be introduced in the tumor cell nuclei in order to neutralize transiently their DNA repair capacity and trigger their death.
