Molecular insights on the peripheral and intra-tumoral effects of systemic high dose rIL-2 (Aldesleukin) administration for the treatment of metastatic melanoma

ABSTRACT: We have previously shown that within tumors, recombinant interleukin-2 (rIL-2, Aldesleukin) consistently activates tumor-associated macrophages and up-regulates interferon stimulated genes (ISGs) while inducing minimal migration, activation or proliferation of T-cells. These effects are independent of tumor response to treatment. Here, we prospectively evaluated transcriptional alterations induced by rIL-2 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and within melanoma metastases by serially comparing pre- to post-treatment samples in 13 patients. We also compared transcriptional differences among lesions displaying different responsiveness to therapy, focusing on 2 lesions decreasing in size and 2 remaining stable (responding lesions) compared to non-responding ones. As previously described, the effects of rIL-2 were dramatic within PBMC, while effects within the tumor microenvironment were lesion-specific and limited. However, distinct signatures specific to response could be observed in responding lesions pre-treatment that were amplified following rIL-2 administration. These signatures match the functional profile observed in other human or experimental models in which immune-mediated tissue-specific destruction (TSD) occurs underlying a common pathways leading to rejection. Moreover, the signatures observed in pre-treatment lesions were qualitatively similar to those associated with TSD underlining a determinism to immune responsiveness that depends upon the genetic background of the host or the intrinsic genetic makeup of individual tumors. This is the first prospectively collected insight on global transcriptional events occurring during high-dose rIL-2 therapy in melanoma metastases responding to treatment. Evaluated transcriptional alterations induced by rIL-2 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) (n=34) and within melanoma metastases (n=30) by serially comparing pre- (n=34) to post-treatment (n=30) samples in 13 patients.

Project description:Oncolytic viral therapy represents an alternative therapeutic strategy for the treatment of cancer. This therapy relies on efficient replication of virus in tumor cells in vivo with minimal or no replication in normal tissues. We recently described GLV-1h68 as a modified Vaccinia Virus (VACV) construct with exclusive in vivo tropism for tumor cells in experimental animal models. Moreover, we had previously observed a cell line-specific relationship between the ability of GLV-1h68 to replicate in vitro during the first 20 hours following infection and the in vivo ability to colonize and eliminate the corresponding tumor implant. Thus, we surveyed the in vitro permissivity to GLV-1h68 replication of the NCI-60 panel of cell lines, extensively characterized and used for the assessment of novel therapeutic modalities. All cell lines were cultured and infected in identical conditions. Pre-infection transcriptional profiling was obtained to search for correlates of permissivity to viral infection. Selected cell lines were also tested for permissivity to another VACV and a vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) strain. We observed that permissivity to VACV infection during the first 20 hours is quite heterogeneous among cell lines but highly reproducible within each cell line. The tissue of origin of each cell line does not influence permissivity to infection with the exception of B cell derivation. Permissivity correlates between two VACV constructs and between them and VSV suggesting a common permissive phenotype. No clear transcriptional pattern predictive of permissivity to infection could be identified though weak associations were observed that suggest a multifactorial control of viral replication. This study adds to the current characterization of the NCI-60 panel to guide the design and interpretation of experimental models testing oncolytic therapies. Seventy-four microarray samples were obtained from 8 renal cancer cell lines (786-0, A498, ACHN, CAKI-I, RXF-393, SN12C, TK-10, UO-31); 12 melanoma cell lines (888-MEL, 1858-MEL, 1936-MEL, 397, A375-MEL, LOX IMVI, M14, SK-MEL-2, SK-MEL-5, SK-MEL-28, UACC 62, UACC 257 ); 11 lung cancer cell lines (A549 p7, A549 p107, EKVX, HOP-62, HOP-92, NCI-H23, NCI-H226, NCI-H322M, NCI-H460, NCI-H522, NCI-H1299); 13 colon cancer cell lines (HCT-15, HCT-116, HT-29 p155, HT-29 p9, KM-12, SW-620, Colo 205, HCC 2998, NCI-ADR-RES, OVCAR 3 p7, OVCAR 3 p42, OVCAR 5, SK-OV-3); 3 ovarian cancer cell lines (OVCAR 4, OVCAR 8, IGROV); 1 cervical cancer cell line (Siha); 6 brain cancer cell lines (SNB 19, SF 295, SF 298, SNB 75, U251, SF 539); 7 breast cancer cell lines (BT-549, GI101A, HS-578T, MCF 7, MDA-MB-231 p41, MDA-MB-435, MDA-MB-231 p6); 7 hematopoietic cancer cell lines (CCFR-CEM, HL-60, K-562, MOLT-4, RPMI 8226, SR, T-47D); 3 prostatic cancer cell lines (Du-145, PC 3 p7, PC 3 p35); 1 hepatic cancer cell lines (Huh 7.5.1); and 2 pancreatic cancer cell lines (MIA PACA 2, Panc 1). Two technical repeats were performed (cell lines Siha and SNB-19). Reference T-RNA was obtained from 6 normal donor PBMCs.

Project description:The progesterone receptor isoforms PRA and PRB are implicated in breast cancer development and metastasis. Expression ratio PRA/PRB is imbalanced in such cancers under the influence of MAPK-dependent extracellular stimuli that strongly impact progesterone-responsiveM- transcriptional regulation. In order to determine the isoform-specific regulated genes M- in a metastatic cancer cell, we established the iPRAB cell line derived from MDA-MB-231 mammary cancer cells (ER-, PR-). This cell lineM- conditionally expressed PRA and/or PRB under the control of RSL1 and doxycycline (Dox) non-steroid ligands, respectively, in a dose-dependent manner. The bi-inducible expression system was generated using a combination of the Rheoswitch (NE Biolabs) and T-Rex (Invitrogen) vector systems as described in the article. We investigated the transcriptomes obtained in cells treated by either RSL1 (for PRA), or Dox (for PRB), or RSL1 + Dox (for PRA + PRB) for 24 h and then by either 10 nM progesterone (+) or vehicle (-) for 6 h. Control experiments were obtained from cells grown in the absence of RSL1, doxycycline and in the presence of progesterone (O+) or vehicle (O-). Experimental conditions of PRA/PRB expression ratio were ranged from 0.1 to 10, and the maximum expression of a given isoform was set to 300 fmol per mg proteins following 24 h induction. After removing redundant probes and pseudogens, the processed data identified 1014 distinct regulated genes subdivised in 3 classes : genes responding either only to unliganded PR isoforms (-), or only to liganded (+) or to both conditions (mixed M-1). Each classe was subdivided according to isoform specificity criteria (A, B, AB, A&B, A&AB, B&AB, A&B&AB) leading to define 3X7 clusters of genes per classe. Each subset was then further analyzed by complete hierarchical clustering through up or down-regulation criteria. These data indicated that PR target genes selectivity is highly dependent of PRA/PRB expression ratio as well as ligand status and highlight the major impact of PR on transcriptional regulation of genes involved in breast cancer and metastasis.
