Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The Cancer and Leukemia Group B (CALGB) 90401 trial compared docetaxel and prednisone with or without bevacizumab in men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. A genome-wide association study using clinical outcomes and toxicities was conducted on the basis of data from CALGB patients who provided consent for pharmacogenomic studies and usable DNA

Project description:Relatively little is known about how changes in gene copy number (CN) and gene CpG methylation interact to affect specific pathways in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Oligonucleotide array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) was performed on DNA isolated from 15 metastatic CRPC samples. Commonly aberrant genes were evaluated in a confirmatory fashion using PCR, aCGH data from primary tumors, and existing CRPC expression data. Array-based comprehensive CpG methylation was assessed on the same sample set. A total of 495 genes (79 gained, 416 deleted) were CN aberrant in ?66% of the samples by aCGH, and 77 (9 amplified, 68 deleted) had statistically concordant expression including gain of AR and loss of PTEN and RB1. Significant CN differences were seen between the genomes of patients with AR-amplified and AR-unamplified tumors, including common loss of AR repressors in AR-unamplified tumors. The majority of CRPC samples were hypermethylated compared to benign prostate tissue. Simultaneous methylation and heterozygous gene deletion occurred in the tumor suppressor RB1 and in HSD17B2, responsible for testosterone metabolism. Establishment of a comprehensive methylation signature and coupling of epigenomic and structural analyses sheds light on the alterations that allow CRPC to circumvent hormonal therapy and may provide new drug targets for what is currently an incurable disease state. 15 tumor samples taken from 14 men with metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer were analyzed, including two samples from the same patient. No control samples were used for this experiment.

Project description:PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase)/AKT and RAS/MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) pathway coactivation in the prostate epithelium promotes both epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) and metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), which is currently incurable. To study the dynamic regulation of the EMT process, we developed novel genetically defined cellular and in vivo model systems from which epithelial, EMT and mesenchymal-like tumor cells with Pten deletion and Kras activation can be isolated. When cultured individually, each population has the capacity to regenerate all three tumor cell populations, indicative of epithelial–mesenchymal plasticity. Despite harboring the same genetic alterations, mesenchymal-like tumor cells are resistant to PI3K and MAPK pathway inhibitors, suggesting that epigenetic mechanisms may regulate the EMT process, as well as dictate the heterogeneous responses of cancer cells to therapy. Among differentially expressed epigenetic regulators, the chromatin remodeling protein HMGA2 is significantly upregulated in EMT and mesenchymal-like tumors cells, as well as in human mCRPC. Knockdown of HMGA2, or suppressing HMGA2 expression with the histone deacetylase inhibitor LBH589, inhibits epithelial–mesenchymal plasticity and stemness activities in vitro and markedly reduces tumor growth and metastasis in vivo through successful targeting of EMT and mesenchymal-like tumor cells. Importantly, LBH589 treatment in combination with castration prevents mCRPC development and significantly prolongs survival following castration by enhancing p53 and androgen receptor acetylation and in turn sensitizing castration-resistant mesenchymal-like tumor cells to androgen deprivation therapy. Taken together, these findings demonstrate that cellular plasticity is regulated epigenetically, and that mesenchymal-like tumor cell populations in mCRPC that are resistant to conventional and targeted therapies can be effectively treated with the epigenetic inhibitor LBH589.

Project description:Peripheral blood from 62 men with castration resistant prostate cancer was collected between 8/2006 and 6/2008. A panel of 168 inflammation-related and prostate cancer related genes was assessed with quantitative PCR to assess biomarkers predictive of survival. qPCR profiling of whole blood from patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Project description:Prostate cancer is one of the major cancers that seriously affect men's health. It has high morbidity and high mortality, but there is still no ideal molecular markers for the diagnosis and prognosis of prostate cancer. Castration-resistant prostate cancer is associated with wide variations in survival. To determine whether differentially expressed circRNAs in plasma exosomes can be used as a novel biomarker for castration-resistant prostate cancer prognosis, we performed high-throughput circRNA sequencing on 15 pairs of plasma exosomes from 30 metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer patients, with or without early progression, to screen differentially expressed circRNAs.

Project description:We analyzed the global gene expression pattern of Tregs between healthy donors and prostate cancer patients. We found that genes related to cell cycle, cellular proliferation, immune responses, hematological system development and function were differentially expressed in Tregs from prostate cancer patients. Total RNA samples of Tregs, isolated from peripheral blood, were obtained from three separate healthy donors and three metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer patients. Global gene expression pattern was examined by performing GeneChip microarray hybridization. Genes differentially expressed between the two groups of donors were sorted and categorized based on their biological functions.

Project description:Purpose: Resistance to androgen deprivation therapies is a major driver of mortality in advanced prostate cancer. Therefore, there is a need to develop new pre-clinical models that allow the investigation of resistance mechanisms and the assessment of drugs for the treatment of castration resistant prostate cancer. Methods: We generated two novel cell line models (LAPC4-CR and VCaP-CR) which were derived by passaging LAPC4 and VCaP cells in vivo and in vitro under castrate conditions. We performed detailed transcriptomic (RNA-seq) to delineate expression differences between castration-sensitive and castration-resistant cell lines. LAPC4-CR and VCaP-CR cell lines maintained AR expression, but exhibited distinct expression changes on the mRNA and protein level. Integrated analyses including data from LNCaP and the previously described castration resistant LNCaP-abl cells revealed an expression signature of castration resistance. Results: Integrated analyses including data from LNCaP and the previously described castration resistant LNCaP-abl cells revealed an expression signature of castration resistance.
