Project description:The study was designed to identify the molecular changes that occur in EGFR mutant NSCLCs that become resistant to TKI by transforming to SCLC. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are effective treatments for non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLCs) with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations. However, they do not lead to cures, and, on average, relapse occurs after one year of continuous treatment. In a subset of patients, a fundamental histological transformation from NSCLC to small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is observed in the resistant cancers, but the molecular changes associated with this transformation remain unknown. Analysis of a cohort of tumor samples and cell lines derived from resistant EGFR mutant patients with SCLC transformation revealed that RB is lost in 100% of these cases, but rarely in those that remain NSCLC. Global changes in gene expression, including increased neuroendocrine marker expression and absence of EGFR expression, are observed in cancers that transformed to SCLC. Consistent with their genetic and epigenetic similarities to classical SCLC, cell lines derived from resistant EGFR mutant SCLC biopsies are substantially more sensitive to ABT-263 treatment compared to those derived from resistant EGFR mutant NSCLCs. Together, these findings suggest that despite developing initially as EGFR mutant adenocarcinomas, this subset of resistant cancers ultimately take on many of the molecular and phenotypic characteristics of classical SCLC. Overall, we completed array CGH analysis on 4 tumor specimens from EGFR mutant, TKI-resistant patients. Three of these samples had transformed to SCLC and one remained NSCLC.

Project description:Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a particularly aggressive, lethal and widely metastatic lung cancer. Surgical specimens of SCLC are rare and difficult to obtain due to their early metastasis. In this study, we generated single cell lung suspensions of SCLC tissues. ScRNA-seq was performed on CD45 and CD31 negative live cells sorted by FACS. Purified cells were clustered to evaluate the cancer cell sub-clusters.

Project description:The goal of this study was to characterize and classify pulmonary neuroendocrine tumors based on Array Comparative Genomic Hybridization (aCGH). Using aCGH, we performed karyotype analysis of 33 small cell lung cancer (SCLC) tumors, 13 SCLC cell lines, 19 bronchial carcinoids, and 9 gastrointestinal (GI) carcinoids. In contrast to the relatively stable karyotypes of carcinoid tumors, the karyotypes of SCLC tumors and cell lines were highly aberrant. High copy number (CN) gains were detected in SCLC tumors and cell lines in cytogenetic bands encoding JAK2, FGFR1, and MYC family members. In some of those samples, the CN of these genes exceeded 100, suggesting that they could represent driver alterations and potential drug targets in subgroups of SCLC patients. Recurrent CN alterations of a total of 203 genes, including the RB1 gene, and 59 microRNAs, most of which locate in the DLK1-DIO3 domain, were observed in SCLC tumors, bronchial carcinoids and carcinoids of GI origin; in contrast, CN alterations of the TP53 gene and the MYC family members were observed more frequently in SCLC. These findings suggest the existence of partially shared tumor-specific CN alterations in these tumors. Furthermore, we demonstrated that the aCGH profile of SCLC cell lines highly resemble that of clinical SCLC specimens. Finally, by analyzing potential drug targets, we provide a genomics based rationale for targeting the AKT-mTOR and apoptosis pathways in SCLC. Carcinoids, including 19 bronchial carcinoids and 9 carcinoid of gastrointestinal origin, and small cell lung cancer, including 33 patients' tumor samples and 13 cell line samples, were compared.

Project description:Characterization of 63 small cell lung cancer (SCLC) cell lines and a comparator set of non-small cell lung cancer and normal counterpart cells, including drug sensitivity testing, gene expression profiling and microRNA expression profiling have been completed. Data and tools for searching these data will be made publicly available through the NCI Developmental Therapeutics Program at http://SCLC.cancer.gov. SCLC is an aggressive, recalcitrant cancer and have seen limited treatment advances in the last 30 years. Drug sensitivity data coupled with the transcription and microRNA profiles of a cohort of SCLC cell lines may help define novel treatment paradigms.

Project description:Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer mortality and is classified by the World Health Organization into two broad histological subtypes. Non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), including adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and large cell carcinoma, accounts for ~85% of all lung cancer cases, with the remaining 15% of cases being due to small cell lung cancer (SCLC), which arises from neuroendocrine cells in the lung. Although most SCLC tumors are initially responsive to chemotherapy and radiation, patients often experience relapse, with the tumor acquiring an aggressiveness and therapeutic resistance that lead to a poor clinical outcome. Improvement of overall survival in individuals with SCLC will require the identification of novel therapeutic targets based on a better understanding of the changes in intracellular signaling of aggressive SCLC cells. The malignant progression of SCLC often occurs concomitantly with the acquisition of chemoresistance, suggesting that phenotypic malignant change is related to adaptation to the stresses induced by chemotherapy. In order to analyze gene expression changes associated with malignant transformation in SCLC, we established a cisplatin-resistant SCLC cell line and performed RNA sequencing.

Project description:Enhanced RAF/MEK/ERK signaling plays an obligatory role in many different types of cancer. Although genetic lesions promoting its aberrant activation are found in lung adenocarcinoma (LADC), the biological role of this pathway is not well documented in small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Here we explored the role of this pathway in SCLC and the broader class of tumors with neuroendocrine (NE) differentiation by introducing a constitutively active form of Fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (Fgfr1) together with biallelic inactivation of Rb1 and Trp53 in mouse lung. Our data show that FGFR1 expression primarily results in LADC but also in NE tumors depending on the cell-of-origin. FGFR1 activation selectively promoted NE bronchial lesions in a novel lung cell subpopulation, whereas it impaired progression of typical central SCLC initiated from CGRP-expressing NE cells, which is believed to be the most prominent cell-of-origin of SCLC. Strikingly, FGFR1 activation was well tolerated by K14-expressing cells that were efficiently transformed into SCLC and other NE lesions. Taken together, our results indicate that FGFR1 can serve either as driver or suppressor of distinct lung cancer subtypes depending on the cell-of-origin, which should be taken into account when considering FGFR1 as a therapeutic target.

Project description:Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) is the most aggressive type of lung cancer with early metastatic dissemination and invariable development of resistant disease for which no effective treatment is available to date. Mouse models of SCLC based on inactivation of Rb1 and Trp53 developed earlier showed frequent amplifications of two transcription factor genes: Nfib and Mycl. Overexpression of Nfib but not Mycl in SCLC mouse results in an enhanced and altered metastatic profile, and appears to be associated with genomic instability. NFIB promotes tumor heterogeneity with the concomitant expansive growth of poorly differentiated, highly proliferative, and invasive tumor cell populations. Consistent with the mouse data, NFIB expression in high-grade human neuroendocrine carcinomas correlates with advanced stage III/IV disease warranting its further assessment as a potentially valuable progression marker in a clinical setting. Genomic DNA from mouse small cell lung tumor samples was analyzed by mate pair sequencing and low coverage sequencing. And RNA from Nfib overexpressing mouse small cell lung cancer cell lines was further analyzed for high quality RNA profiles using Illumina Hiseq2500. This series contains only RNA-seq data.
