Project description:Targeted therapy of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is currently based on small-molecule inhibitors that directly bind the tyrosine kinase domain of BCR-ABL1. This strategy has generally been successful, but is subject to drug resistance because of point mutations in the kinase domain. Kinase activity requires transactivation of BCR-ABL1 following an oligomerization event, which is mediated by the coiled-coil (CC) domain at the N terminus of the protein. Here, we describe a rationally engineered mutant version of the CC domain, called CC(mut3), which interferes with BCR-ABL1 oligomerization and promotes apoptosis in BCR-ABL1-expressing cells, regardless of kinase domain mutation status. CC(mut3) exhibits strong proapoptotic and antiproliferative activity in cell lines expressing native BCR-ABL1, single kinase domain mutant BCR-ABL1 (E255V and T315I) or compound-mutant BCR-ABL1 (E255V/T315I). Moreover, CC(mut3) inhibits colony formation by primary CML CD34(+) cells ex vivo, including a sample expressing the T315I mutant. These data suggest that targeting BCR-ABL1 with CC mutants may provide a novel alternative strategy for treating patients with resistance to current targeted therapies.

Project description:AbstractA better understanding of ABL1 kinase domain mutation-independent causes of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) resistance is needed for BCR::ABL1-positive B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL). Although TKIs have dramatically improved outcomes, a subset of patients still experiences relapsed or refractory disease. We aimed to identify potential biomarkers of intrinsic TKI resistance at diagnosis in samples from 32 pediatric and 19 adult patients with BCR::ABL1-positive BCP-ALL. Reduced ex vivo imatinib sensitivity was observed in cells derived from newly diagnosed patients who relapsed after combined TKI and chemotherapy treatment compared with cells derived from patients who remained in continuous complete remission. We observed that ex vivo imatinib resistance was inversely correlated with the amount of (phosphorylated) BCR::ABL1/ABL1 protein present in samples that were taken at diagnosis without prior TKI exposure. This suggests an intrinsic cause of TKI resistance that is independent of functional BCR::ABL1 signaling. Simultaneous deletions of IKZF1 and CDKN2A/B and/or PAX5 (IKZF1plus), as well as deletions of PAX5 alone, were related to ex vivo imatinib resistance. In addition, somatic lesions involving ZEB2, SETD2, SH2B3, and CRLF2 were associated with reduced ex vivo imatinib sensitivity. Our data suggest that the poor prognostic value of IKZF1(plus) deletions is linked to intrinsic mechanisms of TKI resistance other than ABL1 kinase domain mutations in newly diagnosed pediatric and adult BCR::ABL1-positive BCP-ALL.

Project description:BackgroundSince the development of the first-generation Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (TKI), it has played a crucial role in the treatment of BCR::ABL1-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). However, ABL1 kinase domain (ABL1 KD) mutations confer resistance to several TKIs. These mutations have been extensively studied in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) but less so in BCR::ABL1-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).MethodsOur study aimed to analyze the the ABL1 KD mutations in 97 consecutive newly-diagnosed adults with BCR::ABL1-positive ALL before therapy, in cytogenetic complete remission and at relapse with next generation sequencing (NGS). The relationship between ABL1 KD mutations and TKI selection was also analyzed.ResultsPreviously unreported ABL1 KD mutations R239G, F401V/L, R516L and K262T were the most prevalent in pre-therapy and cytogenetic remission samples, whereas T315I/P and P-loop mutations were most prevalent in relapse samples. R239G, F401V/L, R516L and K262T are related to the BCR::ABL1 structure, whereas T315I/P and P-loop mutations directly alter kinase activity. BaF3 cells transfected with ABL1 KD F401V, K262T, R239G, or R516L mutations were resistant to imatinib but strongly inhibited by olverembatinib with IC50 values of 0.73 to 1.52nM. Meanwhile, olverembatinib had advantages in increasing complete molecular response (CMR) and good prognosis.ConclusionOverall, our findings indicate the prevalence and impact of new ABL1 KD mutations in BCR::ABL1-positive ALL patients, highlighting the necessity for effective therapies targetingthese mutations.

Project description:The acquisition of mutations within the BCR-ABL1 kinase domain is frequently associated with tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) failure in chronic myeloid leukemia. Sensitive sequencing techniques have revealed a high prevalence of compound BCR-ABL1 mutations (polymutants) in patients failing TKI therapy. To investigate the molecular consequences of such complex mutant proteins with regards to TKI resistance, we determined by cloning techniques the presence of polymutants in a cohort of chronic-phase patients receiving imatinib followed by dasatinib therapy. The analysis revealed a high frequency of polymutant BCR-ABL1 alleles even after failure of frontline imatinib, and also the progressive exhaustion of the pool of unmutated BCR-ABL1 alleles over the course of sequential TKI therapy. Molecular dynamics analyses of the most frequent polymutants in complex with TKIs revealed the basis of TKI resistance. Modeling of BCR-ABL1 in complex with the potent pan-BCR-ABL1 TKI ponatinib highlighted potentially effective therapeutic strategies for patients carrying these recalcitrant and complex BCR-ABL1 mutant proteins while unveiling unique mechanisms of escape to ponatinib therapy.

Project description:The prognosis of patients with chronic phase (CP) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) has significantly improved due to the development of potent BCR::ABL1 tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). However, approximately 15‒20% of patients ultimately experience treatment failure due to resistance or intolerance to TKI therapy. As the prognosis of patients in whom multiple TKIs fail remains poor, an optimal therapeutic approach is required to treat the condition. Asciminib, an allosteric inhibitor that targets ABL1 myristoyl pocket, has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in patients with CP-CML resistant or intolerant to ≥2 prior TKIs or those with T315I mutation. In a phase 1 trial, asciminib monotherapy showed a relatively favorable safety profile and potent efficacy in patients with and without the T315I mutation. In a subsequent phase 3 trial, asciminib treatment was associated with a significantly higher major molecular response rate and lower discontinuation rate than bosutinib in patients with CP-CML for whom two previous TKIs failed. Several clinical trials are being performed in various clinical settings to evaluate the role of asciminib as a frontline treatment for newly diagnosed CP-CML, either as a single agent or in combination with other TKIs as a second-line or additive treatment to improve treatment-free or deep remission. This review summarizes the incidence, available therapies, and outcomes of patients with CP-CML who experienced treatment failure, the mechanism of action, preclinical and clinical data, and ongoing trials for asciminib.

Project description:Acquired resistance to ABL1 tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) through ABL1 kinase domain mutations, particularly the gatekeeper mutant T315I, is a significant problem for patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Using structure-based drug design, we developed compounds that bind to residues (Arg386/Glu282) ABL1 uses to switch between inactive and active conformations. The lead "switch-control" inhibitor, DCC-2036, potently inhibits both unphosphorylated and phosphorylated ABL1 by inducing a type II inactive conformation, and retains efficacy against the majority of clinically relevant CML-resistance mutants, including T315I. DCC-2036 inhibits BCR-ABL1(T315I)-expressing cell lines, prolongs survival in mouse models of T315I mutant CML and B-lymphoblastic leukemia, and inhibits primary patient leukemia cells expressing T315I in vitro and in vivo, supporting its clinical development in TKI-resistant Ph(+) leukemia.

Project description:BCR-ABL1 compound mutations can confer high-level resistance to imatinib and other ABL1 tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). The third-generation ABL1 TKI ponatinib is effective against BCR-ABL1 point mutants individually, but remains vulnerable to certain BCR-ABL1 compound mutants. To determine the frequency of compound mutations among chronic myeloid leukemia patients on ABL1 TKI therapy, in the present study, we examined a collection of patient samples (N = 47) with clear evidence of 2 BCR-ABL1 kinase domain mutations by direct sequencing. Using a cloning and sequencing method, we found that 70% (33/47) of double mutations detected by direct sequencing were compound mutations. Sequential, branching, and parallel routes to compound mutations were common. In addition, our approach revealed individual and compound mutations not detectable by direct sequencing. The frequency of clones harboring compound mutations with more than 2 missense mutations was low (10%), whereas the likelihood of silent mutations increased disproportionately with the total number of mutations per clone, suggesting a limited tolerance for BCR-ABL1 kinase domain missense mutations. We conclude that compound mutations are common in patients with sequencing evidence for 2 BCR-ABL1 mutations and frequently reflect a highly complex clonal network, the evolution of which may be limited by the negative impact of missense mutations on kinase function.

Project description:BCR-ABL1 tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are the cornerstone of treatment in chronic myeloid leukemia. Although there are now four TKIs approved for use in the front-line setting, acquired TKI resistance via secondary kinase domain mutations remains a problem for patients. K0706 is a novel BCR-ABL1 TKI currently under clinical investigation with structural elements similar to those of ponatinib and dasatinib. In this article, we functionally characterize the anti-leukemic activity of K0706 using cell proliferation assays in conjunction with drug resistance screening. We provide details from molecular modeling to support our in vitro findings and additionally describe our limited clinical experience with this drug in two patients treated on trial. We demonstrate that although K0706 retains efficacy against a large spectrum of clinically relevant mutations, it does not appear to have activity against BCR-ABL1T315I. Early trial experience suggests excellent tolerability, which may positively affect the place of K0706 within the ever-expanding chronic myeloid leukemia treatment paradigm.

Project description:Small-molecule-induced degradation of mutant Bcr-Abl1 provides a potential approach to overcome Bcr-Abl1 tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI)-resistant chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Our previous study reported that a synthetic steroidal glycoside SBF-1 showed remarkable anti-CML activity by inducing the degradation of native Bcr-Abl1 protein. Here, we observed the comparable growth inhibition for SBF-1 in CML cells harboring T315I mutant Bcr-Abl1 in vitro and in vivo. SBF-1 triggered its degradation through disrupting the interaction between protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) and Bcr-Abl1. Using SBF-1 as a tool, we found that Tyr46 in the PTP1B catalytic domain and Tyr852 in the Bcr-Abl1 pleckstrin-homology (PH) domain are critical for their interaction. Moreover, the phosphorylation of Tyr1086 within the Bcr-Abl1 SH2 domain recruited the E3 ubiquitin ligase c-Cbl to catalyze K27-linked ubiquitin chains, which serve as a recognition signal for p62-dependent autophagic degradation. PTP1B dephosphorylated Bcr-Abl1 at Tyr1086 and prevented the recruitment of c-Cbl, leading to the stability of Bcr-Abl1. This study unravels the action mechanism of PTP1B in stabilizing Bcr-Abl1 protein and indicates that the PTP1B-Bcr-Abl1 interaction might be one of druggable targets for TKI-resistant CML with point mutations.

Project description:Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) has a markedly improved prognosis with the use of breakpoint cluster region-abelson 1 (BCR-ABL1) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BCR-ABL1 TKIs). However, approximately 40% of patients are resistant or intolerant to BCR-ABL1 TKIs. Hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) is a hypoxia response factor that has been reported to be highly expressed in CML patients, making it a therapeutic target for BCR-ABL1 TKI-sensitive CML and BCR-ABL1 TKI-resistant CML. In this study, we examined whether HIF-1α inhibitors induce cell death in CML cells and BCR-ABL1 TKI-resistant CML cells. We found that echinomycin and PX-478 induced cell death in BCR-ABL1 TKIs sensitive and resistant CML cells at similar concentrations while the cell sensitivity was not affected with imatinib or dasatinib in BCR-ABL1 TKIs resistant CML cells. In addition, echinomycin and PX-478 inhibited the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), Akt, and extracellular-regulated protein kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) activation via suppression of BCR-ABL1 and Met expression in BCR-ABL1 sensitive and resistant CML cells. Moreover, treatment with HIF-1α siRNA induced cell death by inhibiting BCR-ABL1 and Met expression and activation of JNK, Akt, and ERK1/2 in BCR-ABL1 TKIs sensitive and resistant CML cells. These results indicated that HIF-1α regulates BCR-ABL and Met expression and is involved in cell survival in CML cells, suggesting that HIF-1α inhibitors induce cell death in BCR-ABL1 TKIs sensitive and resistant CML cells and therefore HIF-1α inhibitors are potential candidates for CML treatment.
