A whole-genome CRISPR screen identifies the spindle accessory checkpoint as a locus of nab-paclitaxel resistance in pancreatic cancer cells.

ABSTRACT: Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is one of the most aggressive and lethal forms of cancer. Chemotherapy is the primary treatment for pancreatic cancer, but resistance to the drugs used remains a major challenge. A genome-wide CRISPR interference and knockout screen in the PANC-1 cell line with the drug nab-paclitaxel has identified a group of spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) genes that enhance survival in nab-paclitaxel. Knockdown of these SAC genes (BUB1B, BUB3, and TTK) attenuates paclitaxel-induced cell death. Cells treated with the small molecule inhibitors BAY 1217389 or MPI 0479605, targeting the threonine tyrosine kinase (TTK), also enhance survival in paclitaxel. Overexpression of these SAC genes does not affect sensitivity to paclitaxel. These discoveries have helped to elucidate the mechanisms behind paclitaxel cytotoxicity. The outcomes of this investigation may pave the way for a deeper comprehension of the diverse responses of pancreatic cancer to therapies including paclitaxel. Additionally, they could facilitate the formulation of novel treatment approaches for pancreatic cancer.

Project description:ObjectiveThe combination of nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-PTX)/paclitaxel (PTX) with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has demonstrated significant efficacy in cancer patients. However, the safety of these combination regimens remains conflicting in former researches. Therefore, in order to address this issue, we performed a systematic review and network meta-analysis (NMA) to evaluate and compare the safety profile.MethodsWe performed a systematic review by searching randomized controlled trials (RCTs) from PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, ClinicalTrials.gov, and Web of Science up to August 15, 2022. The primary outcomes were all-grade (grade 1-5) and high-grade (grade 3-5) immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Secondary outcomes were all-grade (grade 1-5) and high-grade (grade 3-5) irAEs of subgroups of ICIs.ResultsThere were 22 RCTs included in the NMA, involving a total of 15 963 patients diagnosed with any type of cancer. ICIs+nab-PTX was associated with a noticeably decreased risk of grade 3-5 pneumonitis (odds ratio [OR]=0.28, 95% credible interval [CrI]: 0.09,0.90) compared to ICI monotherapy; ICIs+PTX showed a lower risk of grade 1-5 hyperthyroidism (OR=0.46, 95% CrI: 0.22-0.96) and grade 1-5 hypothyroidism (OR=0.49, 95% CrI: 0.26-0.93) than ICIs. Compared with PD-1, PD-1+PTX was associated with a statistically significantly lower risk of grade 1-5 pneumonitis (OR=0.32, 95% CrI: 0.11-0.92). PD-L1 resulted in a noticeably lower risk of grade 1-5 hypothyroidism (OR=0.34, 95% CrI: 0.12-1.00) than PD-L1+PTX. Nearly all treatment regimens containing ICIs demonstrated significantly higher risks of irAEs compared to the standard chemotherapy groups.ConclusionNab-PTX/PTX+ICIs demonstrated an approach leading to decreased risk of irAEs compared with ICI monotherapy. This finding supports that ICIs+nab-PTX/PTX may be a safer treatment strategy. Moreover, we also found that the combination regimens containing ICIs had a higher risk of irAEs than standard chemotherapy. Additionally, ICIs+nab-PTX demonstrated a decreased risk of irAEs compared to ICIs+PTX. PD-1 inhibitors were associated with a higher risk of irAEs than PD-L1 inhibitors.
