Breast cancer metastasis is a major challenge in clinical therapy because of the absence of effective treatments. Rho-associated coiled-coil kinase (ROCK), which is essential for cell invasion and migration, has recently been suggested as a potential target for the treatment of cancer metastasis. Herein, we report the structure−activity relationships (SAR) of indolocarbazoles against ROCK2 and reveal the crucial role of the C-3 hydroxyl for ROCK2 inhibition. The most potent unglycosylated aglycone THK01 was demonstrated to bind to and stabilize ROCK2 with potent anti-metastatic effects in breast cancer in vitro and in vivo with no obvious toxicities. Further mechanistic studies revealed that the anti-metastatic effect of THK01 was closely related to the suppression of STAT3^Y705 activation. Moreover, THK01 exhibited excellent selectivity over the isoform protein ROCK1 (>100-fold). Taken together, with low toxicity, the ROCK2 inhibitor THK01 potently inhibited breast cancer metastasis through the ROCK2-STAT3 signaling pathway, which offers a new opportunity for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer.
