Project description:Germline BRCA-associated pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma(glBRCA-PDAC) tumors aresusceptible to platinum/PARP-inhibition. The clinical outcomesof 125 glBRCA-PDAC patients was stratified based on the spectrum of response to platinum/PARP-inhibition: i)Refractory(OS<6 months) ii)Durable response followed by acquired-resistance(OS<36 months); iii)Long-term responders(OS>36 months). Patient-derived-xenografts(PDX) were generated from 25 glBRCA-PDAC patients at different clinical time-points. Response to platinum/PARP-inhibition in-vivo and ex-vivo culture(EVOC) correlated with clinical response. We deciphered the mechanisms of resistance in glBRCA-PDAC and identified homologous recombination(HR)-proficiency and secondary-mutations restoring partial functionality as the most dominant resistant mechanism. Yet, a subset of HR-deficient(HRD) patients demonstrated clinical resistance. Their tumors displayed basal-like molecular subtype and were more aneuploid. Tumor-mutational-burden(TMB) was high in HRD-PDAC and significantly higher in tumors with secondary mutations. Anti-PD1 attenuated tumor growth in a novel humanized glBRCA-PDAC PDX-model. This work demonstrates the utility ofpreclinicalmodels, including EVOC, to predict response of glBRCA-PDAC to treatment, whichhas potential to inform time-sensitive medical decisions.

Project description:Background: Resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy remains a major impediment in the treatment of serous epithelial ovarian cancer. The objective of this study was to use gene expression profiling to delineate major deregulated pathways and biomarkers associated with the development of intrinsic chemotherapy resistance upon exposure to standard first-line therapy for ovarian cancer. Methods: The study cohort comprised 28 patients divided into two groups based on their varying sensitivity to first-line chemotherapy using progression free survival (PFS) as a surrogate of response. All 28 patients had advanced stage, high-grade serous ovarian cancer, and were treated with the same standard platinum-based chemotherapy. Twelve patient tumors demonstrating relative resistance to platinum chemotherapy corresponding to shorter PFS (< eight months) were compared to sixteen tumors from platinum-sensitive patients (PFS > eighteen months). Whole transcriptome profiling was performed using a Affymetrix high-resolution microarray platform to permit global comparisons of gene expression profiles between tumors from the resistant group and the sensitive group. Results: Microarray data analysis revealed a set of 204 discriminating genes possessing expression levels, which could influence differential chemotherapy response between the two groups. Robust statistical testing was then performed which eliminated a dependence on the normalization algorithm employed, producing a restricted list of differentially regulated genes, and which found IGF1 to be the most strongly differentially expressed gene. Pathway analysis, based on the list of 204 genes, revealed enrichment in genes primarily involved in the IGF1/PI3K/NFκB/ERK gene signalling networks. Conclusions: This study has identified pathway specific prognostic biomarkers possibly underlying a differential chemotherapy response in patients undergoing standard platinum-based treatment of serous epithelial ovarian cancer. Future studies to validate these markers are necessary to apply this knowledge to biomarker-based clinical trials. Total RNA from 12 chemotherapy resistant and 16 sensitive chemotherapy sensitive high-grade serous epithelial ovarian cancer samples was subjected to whole transcriptome profiling using Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 arrays

Project description:PARP inhibitor and platinum based drugs such as cisplatin are promising therapies for triple negative breast cancer and exploit the deficiencies in BRCA1 or BRCA2, or homologous recombination repair defects. However, PARP inhibitor resistance is proven to be a major clinical problem. Acquired PARP inhibitor resistance has been linked with co-resistance to platinum-based drugs. To determine how acquired olaparib resistance affects cisplatin response and whether this is influenced by their BRCA1 status, we performed RNAseq transcriptome analysis of isogenic triple negative breast cancer models of olaparib resistance with normal and mutant BRCA1.

Project description:Epithelial ovarian cancer is the leading cause of death from gynecological malignancies. Currently platinum-based chemotherapy, coupled with a taxane based drug is the primary treatment for ovarian cancer. Approximately 25% of patients either present with or rapidly develop resistance to platinum based chemotherapy and all recurrent tumors ultimately become resistant. Epigenetic modifications have been associated with tumor formation and progression and may contribute to therapy response. We performed a methylation screen on a set of tumors and have found a number of genes and family members differentially methylated between resistant patients and sensitive patients. Here we show that loss of expression of CHD3, a member of the Mi-2/NuRD complex, causes increased resistance to platinum chemotherapy drugs. Additionally, ovarian cell lines transcriptionally silenced for CHD3 are more invasive, have migratory ability, and display a transformed epithelial to mesenchymal (EMT) phenotype. Taken together, we provide the first evidence of a role for CHD3 as an important epigenetic regulator of chemoresistance in ovarian cancer and hypothesize EMT as one of the underlying mechanisms. Furthermore, CHD3 expression might represent a therapy response predictor and could be a future therapeutic target for ovarian cancer. We have developed a method to profile genome wide methylation. 71 ovarian tumor samples and 9 normal tissue samples from individuals were analyzed for CpG methylation. Some of these regions were validated for their methylation as a proof of principle for the method. Kamalakaran S., et. al. Mol Oncol. 2011;5:77-92 (PMID: 21169070).

Project description:Changes in chromatin organization are associated with resistance to anti-cancer drugs, such as platinum-based chemotherapy used as the primary treatment of ovarian cancer. We have examined the genomic distribution of chromatin accessibility changes, and relationship to gene expression changes, occurring during acquisition of resistance in vivo of high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) patients and whether this associates with genomic DNA damage distribution. Using matched chemo-sensitive and chemo-resistant ovarian cell lines isolated from HGSOC patients before and following acquisition of clinical resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy, we have examined the relationship between chromatin accessibility by ATAC-seq, platinum-DNA adduct distribution by Pt-Exo-seq and gene expression by RNA-seq. We have correlated chromatin changes between the lines at gene promoters, CpG islands, enhancer sequences and other genomic regions with changes in gene expression and platinum-DNA adduct distribution. We observe chromatin conformation differences following acquisition of platinum-resistance, with the HGSOC resistant lines clustering together, separately from their respective sensitive counterparts. Resistant lines show altered chromatin accessibility at intergenic regions, but less so at gene promoters. Super-enhancers, as defined by clusters of cis-regulatory elements, at these intergenic regions show chromatin changes that are associated with altered expression of linked genes, with enrichment for genes involved in the Fanconi anemia/BRCA DNA damage response pathway. Genome-wide distribution of platinum adducts associates with the chromatin changes and distinguish sensitive from resistant lines. Regions incurring fewer platinum-adducts showed a significant reduction in accessibility the resistant HGSOC cell line PEO4 compared to the sensitive PEO1 counterpart. Surprisingly, regions showing increased damage in PEO4 had an even greater reduction in accessibility. In the resistant line, we observe fewer adducts around gene promoters and more adducts at intergenic regions. In cell lines derived from patients following acquisition of clinical resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy, chromatin changes at super-enhancers correlate with gene expression changes in DNA repair pathways known to influence platinum sensitivity. Although cisplatin is a relatively non-specific DNA damaging agent, there are consistent differences in distribution of adducts between the matched sensitive and resistant ovarian cell lines, which is independent of the overall level of adducts formed.

Project description:Resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy is a clinical challenge in the treatment of ovarian cancer (OC) and limits survival. Therefore, innovative drugs against platinum-resistance are urgently needed. Our therapeutic concept is based on the conjugation of two chemotherapeutic compounds to a monotherapeutic pro-drug, which is taken up by cancer cells and cleaved into active cytostatic metabolites. Here, we explore the activity of the duplex-prodrug 5-FdU-ECyd, covalently linking 2'-deoxy-5-fluorouridine (5-FdU) and 3'-C-ethynylcytidine (ECyd), on platinum-resistant OC cells. RNA-Sequencing was used for characterization of 5-FdU-ECyd treated platinum-sensitive A2780 and isogenic platinum-resistant A2780cis.
