The Ontogeny and Vulnerabilities of Lapatinib Drug Tolerant Persisters [Parental (P) vs. Drug-Tolerant Persister (DTP)]

ABSTRACT: Despite significant advances in HER2-targeted therapies, therapeutic resistance in HER2-positive (HER2+) breast cancer remains a significant clinical problem, especially in the metastatic setting. “Drug tolerant persisters” (DTPs), a sub-population of cancer cells that survive via reversible, non-genetic mechanisms, are implicated in resistance to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in several cancer models, but DTPs for HER2-targeted TKIs (e.g., lapatinib, neratinib, tucatinib) have not been characterized extensively. Here, we report that HER2+ER+ and HER2+ER- breast cancer lines give rise to distinct types of “lapatinib-DTPs,” characterized by different transcriptional programs and sensitivity to lapatinib/anti-estradiol combination. Lapatinib-DTPs from HER2+/ER+ cells rewire the PI3K/AKT/mTORC1 pathway via transcriptional induction of SGK3 to enable AKT-independent mTORC1 activation and survival. Lentiviral barcoding experiments, combined with single cell RNA-sequencing, suggest that HER2+ cells stochastically cycle through a cell state (“pre-DTP”) capable of transition to DTPs. Collectively, our results provide insight into DTP ontogeny and therapeutic vulnerabilities.

Ontogeny and Vulnerability of Lapatinib Drug-Tolerant Persisters in HER2-positive Breast Cancer

Project description:Despite advances in HER2-targeted therapeutics, resistance remains a significant clinical problem in HER2-positive (HER2+) breast cancer, especially in the metastatic setting. Drug-tolerant persisters (DTPs), a sub-population of cancer cells that survive via reversible, non-genetic mechanisms, are implicated in resistance to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in several cancer models, but DTPs for HER2-targeted TKIs have not been characterized extensively. We found that upon treatment with the TKI lapatinib, HER2+ breast cancer lines yielded DTPs with luminal-like or mesenchymal-like transcriptional programs and differential sensitivity to lapatinib/anti-estradiol combinations. Lentiviral barcoding and single cell RNA-sequencing indicate that HER2+/ER+ cells cycle stochastically through a pre-DTP state, characterized by a G0-like signature, which uniquely gives rise to DTPs upon lapatinib exposure.

The landscape of therapeutic vulnerabilities in EGFR inhibitor osimertinib drug tolerant persister cells [RNA-seq]

Project description:Third-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs), including osimertinib, an irreversible EGFR-TKI, are important treatments for non-small cell lung cancer with EGFR-TKI sensitizing or EGFR T790M resistance mutations. Whilst patients treated with osimertinib show clinical benefit, disease progression and drug resistance are common. Emergence of de novo acquired resistance from a drug tolerant persister (DTP) cell population is one mechanism proposed to explain progression on osimertinib and other targeted cancer therapies. Here we profiled osimertinib DTPs using RNA-seq, ChIP-seq, and ATAC-seq to characterize the features of these cells and performed drug screens to identify therapeutic opportunities.

The Yin and Yang of GDF15: a secreted biomarker of eribulin response in breast cancer cells, yet required for survival of drug tolerant persister (DTP) cells

Project description:Drug tolerant persister (DTP) cells enter into a reversible slow-cycling state after cancer drug treatment. These cells are the living proof of response to a drug, and an interesting experimental subject for biomarker discovery. Here, we performed proteomic characterization of the breast cancer (BC) DTP cell secretome after eribulin treatment. First, we showed that eribulin induces a specific secretome in DTP cells as compared to other microtubule targeting agents. Then, we selected and functionally validated growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) as a protein significantly over-secreted upon eribulin treatment. Interestingly, GDF15 expression is low/absent in cells that are sensitive to eribulin, strongly upregulated during the response to the drug, and downregulated when stable resistance is ultimately established. Proteomic results were confirmed in 3D-cell culture models using BC cells lines and PDXs, as well as in a TNBC in vivo model. Unexpectedly, despite its biomarker potential for eribulin response, we found that GDF15 is also paradoxically required for survival of DTP cells, although once full resistance to eribulin is established, GDF15 expression largely disappears. Direct participation of GDF15 and its receptor GFRAL in eribulin-induction of DTPs was established by the enhanced cell killing of DTPs by eribulin seen under GDF15 and GFRAL loss of function conditions. These results pointed to a potential benefit of simultaneous targeting of GDF15/GFRAL and eribulin, and indeed we showed that combination therapy of eribulin plus an anti-GDF15 antibody kills BC-DTP cells. Our results suggest that targeting GDF15 may help eradicate DTP cells and block the onset of acquired eribulin resistance, and possibly other cytotoxic drugs. Overall, the combination of cytotoxic agents with targeted agents aimed specifically at DTP cells could be an effective therapeutic approach for metastatic breast cancer patients.

Drug tolerant persisters in erlotinib treated EGFR-mutated lung adenocarcinoma arise from pre-existing tumor cells and survive in an adapted stromal microenvironment

Project description:Targeted therapies require life-long treatment, as drug discontinuation invariably leads to tumor recurrence. Recurrence is thought to mainly be driven by minor subpopulations of drug tolerant persister (DTP) cells that survive the cytotoxic drug effect. In lung cancer, DTP studies have mainly been conducted using tumor cell line models. We conducted an in vivo DTP study using a lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) patient-derived xenograft (PDX) tumor driven by an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation. Daily treatment of tumor-bearing mice for 5-6 weeks markedly shrunk the tumors and generated DTPs, which were analyzed by bulk population transcriptome.

Drug-tolerant cancer cell persisters survive lethal exposures by silencing transposable elements [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Establishing and maintaining phenotypic heterogeneity within cell and organismal populations is an evolutionarily conserved strategy that ensures survival of the population following stressful exposures. We previously identified a transient, reversible, drug-tolerant cancer cell subpopulation that survives otherwise lethal drug exposures. Here we show that these drug-tolerant persisters (DTPs) assume a highly heterochromatic state, which requires factors that modify or bind trimethylated H3 lysine 9 (H3K9me3). The increased H3K9me3 in DTPs is largely restricted to evolutionarily young Long Interspersed Repeat elements (LINEs). This transcriptionally repressive state, which decreases the expression of these retrotransposable elements, is critical for DTP survival, and disruption of this heterochromatic state results in re-expression of LINE elements and ablation of this subpopulation. Together, these findings establish a role for epigenetic silencing of transposable elements as a population survival strategy to maintain genomic integrity in subpopulations of cancer cells during lethal drug exposures.

Gene expression profiling of drug-tolerant persister BT474 breast cancer cells derived from lapatinib treatment

Project description:Acquired drug resistance prevents targeted cancer therapy from achieving stable and complete responses. Emerging evidence implicates a key role for nonmutational mechanisms including changes in cell state during early stages of acquired drug resistance. Targeting nonmutational resistance may therefore present a therapeutic opportunity to eliminate residual surviving tumor cells and impede relapse. A variety of cancer cell lines harbor quiescent, reversibly drug-tolerant âpersisterâ cells which survive cytotoxic drugs including targeted therapies and chemotherapies. These persister cells survive drug through nonmutational mechanisms which are poorly understood. Specifically targeting persister cells is a promising strategy to prevent tumor relapse. We sought to identify therapeutically exploitable vulnerabilities in persister cells using the HER2-amplified breast cancer line BT474 as an experimental model. Similar to other persister cell models, upon treatment with the HER2 inhibitor lapatinib (2uM concentration) for nine or more days, the majority of BT474 cells die, revealing a small population of quiescent surviving persister cells. Removal of lapatinib allows the persister cells to regrow and to re-acquire sensitivity to lapatinib. Subsequent lapatinib treatment re-derives persister cells. The reversibility of persister cell drug resistance indicates a nonmutational resistance mechanism. Here we provide RNAseq gene expression profiling data generated from parental BT474 cells compared to BT474 persister cells generated from nine days of treatment with 2 uM lapatinib. These data can be used to identify genes and pathways which are upregulated in persister cells, revealing potential therapeutic targets. 3 biological replicates of BT474 persister cells, two biological replicates of BT474 parental cells
