Synergistic targeting of estrogen-receptor positive breast cancers by MDM2 inhibition in combination with endocrine therapy or CDK4/6 inhibition

ABSTRACT: Here we characterise the response of models of ER-positive breast cancer to treatment with the small molecule MDM2 inhibitor NVP-CGM097, a dihydroisoquinolinone derivative currently evaluated in a phase I clinical trial. We show that NVP-CGM097 reduces tumour cell viability of in vitro and in vivo models of endocrine sensitive, endocrine resistant and palbociclib (CDK4/6 inhibitor) resistant p53 wildtype (p53wt) ER-positive breast cancer. NVP-CGM097 synergises with both fulvestrant and palbociclib in models of therapy resistance. Importantly, we identify the key mechanisms of the synergistic interactions between NVP-CGM097 and endocrine therapy, which occurs through the inhibition of E2F Targets and G2M Checkpoint signalling and induction of senescence, rather than depending upon upregulation of p53 dependent apoptotic pathways. Moreover, we find these same pathways are synergistically targeted during the combination treatment of ER positive breast cancer models with NVP-CGM097 and palbociclib. This indicates the genuine potential of MDM2 inhibition as therapy in advanced ER-positive breast cancer as combination endocrine therapy and CDK4/6 inhibitor treatment becomes embedded as standard of care.

Inhibition of GPX4 enhances CDK4/6 inhibitor activity in breast cancer.

Project description:CDK4/6 inhibition is the standard of care for estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer, although cytostasis is frequently observed, and new treatment strategies that enhance efficacy are required. We performed a genome-wide CRISPR screen to identify genetic determinants of CDK4/6 inhibitors sensitivity. Multiple genes involved in oxidative stress and ferroptosis modulated palbociclib sensitivity. Depletion or inhibition of GPX4 increased sensitivity to palbociclib in ER+ breast cancer models, and sensitised triple negative breast cancer models to palbociclib, with GPX4 null xenografts being highly sensitive to palbociclib. Palbociclib induced oxidative stress and disordered lipid metabolism with lipid peroxidation, leading to a ferroptosis-sensitive state. Lipid peroxidation relied on a peroxisome AGPAT3-dependent pathway in ER+ breast cancer models, rather than the classical ACSL4 pathway. Our data demonstrate that CDK4/6 inhibition creates vulnerability to ferroptosis that could be exploited through combination with GPX4 inhibitors, enhancing sensitivity to CDK4/6 inhibition in breast cancer.

High CDK6 protects cells from fulvestrant-mediated apoptosis and is a predictor of resistance to fulvestrant in estrogen receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer

Project description:Purpose: Resistance to endocrine therapy in estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer remains a major clinical problem. Recently, the CDK4/6 inhibitor palbociclib combined with letrozole was approved for treatment of ER+ advanced breast cancer, and other CDK4/6 inhibitors are being investigated in combination with different endocrine treatments. However, the role of CDK4/6 in endocrine resistance and their potential as predictive biomarkers of endocrine treatment response remains undefined. Experimental Design: We investigated the specific role of increased CDK6 expression in fulvestrant-resistant cells by gene knockdown and treatment with palbociclib, and evaluated the effect in cell proliferation, apoptosis and kinase activity. Furthermore, we evaluated CDK6 expression in metastatic samples from breast cancer patients treated or not with fulvestrant. Results: We found increased expression of CDK6 in two fulvestrant-resistant cell models vs. sensitive cells. Reduction of CDK6 expression impaired fulvestrant-resistant cell growth and induced apoptosis by reducing p70 ribosomal S6 kinase 2 activity. Treatment with palbociclib re-sensitized fulvestrant-resistant cells to fulvestrant through alteration of retinoblastoma phosphorylation. High CDK6 levels in metastatic samples from breast cancer patients treated with fulvestrant (N=45) correlated significantly with shorter progression-free survival (PFS) (p=0.0006), while no association was observed in patients receiving other endocrine treatments (N=41, p=0.874). Conclusions: Our results indicate that upregulation of CDK6 may be an important mechanism in overcoming fulvestrant-mediated growth inhibition in breast cancer cells. Patients with advanced ER+ breast cancer exhibiting high CDK6 expression in the metastatic lesions show shorter PFS upon fulvestrant treatment and thus may benefit from the addition of CDK4/6 inhibitors in their therapeutic regimens.

Oxidative phosphorylation is a metabolic vulnerability of endocrine therapy and palbociclib resistant metastatic breast cancers

Project description:<p>Resistance to endocrine treatments and CDK4/6 inhibitors is considered a near-inevitability in most patients with estrogen receptor positive breast cancers (ER+ BC). By genomic and metabolomics analyses of patients’ tumours, metastasis-derived patient-derived xenografts (PDX) and isogenic cell lines we demonstrate that a fraction of metastatic ER + BC is highly reliant on oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Treatment by the OXPHOS inhibitor IACS-010759 strongly inhibits tumour growth in multiple endocrine and palbociclib resistant PDX. Mutations in the PIK3CA/AKT1 genes are significantly associated with response to IACS-010759. At the metabolic level, in vivo response to IACS-010759 is associated with decreased levels of metabolites of the glutathione, glycogen and pentose phosphate pathways in treated tumours. In vitro, endocrine and palbociclib resistant cells show increased OXPHOS dependency and increased ROS levels upon IACS-010759 treatment. Finally, in ER+ BC patients, high expression of OXPHOS associated genes predict poor prognosis. In conclusion, these results identify OXPHOS as a promising target for treatment resistant ER+ BC patients.Insert information here such as publication abstract</p>

TUMOUR KINOME RE-WIRING GOVERNS RESISTANCE TO PALBOCICLIB IN OESTROGEN RECEPTOR POSITIVE BREAST CANCERS, HIGHLIGHTING NEW THERAPEUTIC MODALITIES

Project description:Estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancers are the most common type of breast cancer. Despite the great efficacy of endocrine therapies, resistance remains a problem. Therefore, there is an immediate need for new, effective therapies in ER+ BC. In this study, we have explored the role of a potent CDK4/6 inhibitor called palbociclib. In order to identify differential phosphoproteomic events that underpin the mode of action and recurrence for this treatment, we generated a panel of palbociclib-sensitive and resistant cell lines and did quantitative, shotgun phosphoproteomics using titanium IMAC. Palbociclib sensitive cell lines (wt-MCF7 or MCF7-LTED) were cultured in phenol red-free RPMI supplemented with 10% FBS and 1nM estradiol or 10% dextran-coated charcoal (DCC) respectively. Thereafter, palbociclib resistant cell lines were generated using 1μΜ palbociclib concentration. Samples were harvested at baseline and at the point of resistance.

Resistance to Palbociclib requires multiple targetable mechanisms highlighting the potential of drug holidays and drug switching to improve therapeutic outcome

Project description:Estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer is the most common type of breast cancer. Despite the great efficacy of endocrine therapies, resistance remains a problem. Therefore, there is an immediate need for new, effective therapies in ER+ BC. In this study, we have explored the role of a potent CDK4/6 inhibitor called palbociclib. In order to identify alterations in protein abundance between the responsive and resistant setting, we generated a panel of palbociclib-sensitive and resistant cell lines and did quantitative, shotgun proteomics using dimethyl labelling. Palbociclib sensitive cell lines (wt-MCF7 or MCF7-LTED) were cultured in phenol red-free RPMI supplemented with 10% FBS and 1nM estradiol or 10% dextran-coated charcoal (DCC) respectively. Thereafter, palbociclib resistant cell lines were generated using 1μΜ palbociclib concentration. Samples were harvested at baseline and at the point of resistance.

Activation of the interferon signaling pathway is associated with resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors and immune checkpoint activation in ER-positive breast cancer [RNA-seq]

Project description:CDK4/6 inhibitors are highly effective against ER+/HER2- breast cancer (BC); however, intrinsic and acquired resistance is common. Elucidating the molecular features of sensitivity and resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors may lead to the identification of predictive biomarkers and novel therapeutic targets, paving the way toward improving patient outcomes. Parental BC cells and their endocrine-resistant derivatives (EndoR) were used in this study. Derivatives with acquired resistance to palbociclib (PalboR) were generated from parental and estrogen deprivation-resistant MCF7 and T47D cells. Transcriptomic and proteomic analyses were performed in palbociclib-sensitive and PalboR lines. We found that parental and EndoR BC lines showed varying degrees of sensitivity to palbociclib. Transcriptomic analysis of these cell lines identified an association between high Interferon (IFN) signaling and reduced sensitivity to CDK4/6 inhibitors, thus an ‘IFN-Related Palbociclib-Resistance Signature’ (IRPS) was derived. In two neoadjuvant trials of a CDK4/6 inhibitor plus endocrine therapy, IRPS and other IFN-related signatures were highly enriched in patients with tumors exhibiting intrinsic resistance to CDK4/6 inhibition. PalboR derivatives displayed a dramatic activation of IFN/STAT1-signaling compared to their short-term treated or untreated counterparts. In primary ER+/HER2- tumors, the IRPS score was significantly higher in lumB than lumA subtype and correlated with increased gene expression of immune checkpoints, endocrine resistance, and poor prognosis. Our study demonstrates that aberrant IFN-signaling is associated with intrinsic resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors. Experimentally, acquired resistance to palbociclib is associated with activation of the IFN-pathway, which warrants additional studies to clarify its involvement in resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors.

Short term (16 hour) treatment of ER+ breast cancer cell lines with low doses of CDK4/6 inhibition

Project description:Cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors have improved progression free survival for metastatic, estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancers, but their role in the non-metastatic setting remains unclear. We sought to understand the effects of CDK4/6 inhibition (CDK4/6i) and radiation (RT) in multiple preclinical breast cancer models. Transcriptomic and proteomic analyses were used to identify significantly altered pathways after CDK4/6i. Clonogenic assays were used to quantify the RT enhancement ratio (rER). DNA damage was quantified using γH2AX staining and the neutral comet assay. DNA repair was assessed using RAD51 foci formation and non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) reporter assays. Orthotopic xenografts were used to assess the efficacy of combination therapy. Palbociclib significantly radiosensitized multiple ER+ cell lines at low nanomolar, sub IC50 concentrations (rER: 1.21 – 1.52) and led to a decrease in the surviving fraction of cells at 2 Gy (p < 0.001). Similar results were observed in ribociclib- (rER: 1.08 - 1.68) and abemaciclib-treated (rER: 1.19 - 2.05) cells. Combination treatment decreased RAD51 foci formation (p < 0.001), leading to a suppression of HR activity, but did not affect NHEJ efficiency (p > 0.05). Immortalized breast epithelial cells and cells with acquired resistance to CDK4/6i did not demonstrate radiosensitization (rER: 0.94 – 1.11) or changes in RAD51 foci. In xenograft models, concurrent palbociclib and RT led to a significant decrease in tumor growth. These studies provide preclinical rationale to test CDK4/6i + RT in women with locally-advanced ER+ breast cancer at high risk for locoregional recurrence.

Selective CDK7 inhibition suppresses cell cycle progression and MYC signaling while enhancing apoptosis in therapy-resistant estrogen receptor positive breast cancer

Project description:Purpose: Resistance to endocrine therapy (ET) and CDK4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) is a clinical challenge in estrogen receptor (ER) positive (ER+) breast cancer (BC). Cyclin-dependent kinase 7 (CDK7) is a candidate target in endocrine resistant ER+ BC models and selective CDK7 inhibitors (CDK7i) are in clinical development for the treatment of ER+ BC. Nonetheless, the precise mechanisms responsible for the activity of CDK7i in ER+ BC remain elusive. Herein, we sought to unravel these mechanisms. Experimental Design: We conducted multi-omic analyses in ER+ BC models in vitro and in vivo including models with different genetic backgrounds. We also performed genome wide CRISPR knock-out library screens to identify potential therapeutic vulnerabilities in CDK4/6i resistance models. Results: We found that the on-target anti-tumor effects of CDK7 inhibition in ER+ BC are in part p53 dependent, involve cell-cycle inhibition and suppression of c-Myc. Moreover, CDK7 inhibition exhibited cytotoxic effects, distinctive from the cytostatic nature of ETs and CDK4/6i. CDK7 inhibition resulted in suppression of ER phosphorylation at S118, however, long-term CDK7 inhibition resulted in increased ER signaling, supporting the combination of ET with a CDK7i. Lastly, genome wide CRISPR/Cas9 screens identified CDK7 and MYC signaling as putative vulnerabilities in CDK4/6i resistance, and CDK7 inhibition effectively inhibited CDK4/6i resistant models. Conclusions: Taken together, these findings support the clinical investigation of selective CDK7 inhibition combined with ET to overcome treatment resistance in ER+ BC. In addition, our study highlights the potential of increased c-Myc activity and intact p53 as predictors for sensitivity to CDK7 inhibitor-based treatments.

Efficacy of abemaciclib in palbociclib-resistant hormone receptor positive organoids derived from patient derived xenografts from patients who progressed on palbociclib

Project description:Resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors plus endocrine therapy, standard of care for HR+/HER2-neg metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients, remains as a clinical problem with limited therapeutic options after disease progression. Treatment with abemaciclib after progression on a prior CDK4/6i has received increasing interest. However, molecular predictors of cross-resistance and unique mechanism of resistance to each CDK4/6i are unknown. In this study, multiomics analyses revealed ≥30 differentially altered pathways between palbociclib and abemaciclib resistant models. Mechanistic, preclinical and retrospective clinical evidence showed that HR+/HER2-neg MBC tumors refractory to palbociclib still may be responsive to abemaciclib. Based on the unique mechanisms of resistance to each CDK4/6i, we propose that patients who would benefit from abemaciclib treatment post progression on palbociclib could be selected based on the Hallmark gene set enrichment of G2/M pathway, while those who most probably would be refractory could be identified base on the gene set enrichment of OXPHOS pathway.
