Project description:Drug tolerant persister cells of EGFR-mutant PC9 cell lines surviving treatment with kinase inhibitor combination.

Project description:Elevated expression and activity of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is associated with development and progression of head and neck cancer (HNC) and a poor prognosis. Clinical trials with EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs; eg. erlotinib) have been disappointing in HNC. To investigate the mechanisms mediating resistance to these agents, we developed a HNC cell line (HN5-ER) with acquired erlotinib resistance. In contrast to parental HN5 HNC cells, HN5-ER cells exhibited an epithelial-mesenchymal (EMT) phenotype with increased migratory potential, reduced E-cadherin and epithelial-associated miRNAs, and elevated vimentin expression. Phosphorylated RTK profiling identified Axl activation in HN5-ER cells. Growth and migration of HN5-ER cells was blocked with a specific Axl inhibitor, R428, and R428 re-sensitized HN5-ER cells to erlotinib. Microarray analysis of HN5-ER cells confirmed the EMT phenotype associated with acquired erlotinib resistance, and identified activation of gene expression associated with cell migration and inflammation pathways. Moreover, increased expression and secretion of interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-8 in HN5-ER cells suggested a role for inflammatory cytokine signaling in EMT and erlotinib resistance. Expression of the tumor suppressor miR-34a was reduced in HN5-ER cells and increasing its expression abrogated Axl expression and reversed erlotinib resistance. Finally, analysis of 302 HNC patients revealed that high tumor Axl mRNA expression was associated with poorer survival (HR 1.66, p=0.007). In summary, our results identify Axl as a key mediator of acquired erlotinib resistance in HNC and suggest that therapeutic inhibition of Axl by small molecule drugs or specific miRNAs might overcome anti-EGFR therapy resistance.

Project description:Activating mutations of EGFR have been characterized as important mechanisms for carcinogenesis in a subset of EGFR-dependent non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC). EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI), such as erlotinib and gefitinib, have dramatic clinical effects on EGFR-addicted lung cancers and are used as first-line therapy for EGFR-mutant tumors. However, eventually all tumors acquire secondary resistance to the drugs and progress. We established a model to better understand mechanisms of acquired resistance. NCI- HCC827 cells are EGFR-mutant and highly erlotinib-sensitive. In this study we exposed HCC827 cells to increasing concentrations of erlotinib and two highly erlotinib-resistant subclones were developed (ER3 and T15-2). In these subclones no acquired alterations of EGFR or MET were found. We hereby performed a gene expression microarray studies to understand changes that might explain mechanisms of resistance. Through these studies we demonstrated in one resistant clone (ER3) overexpression of AXL, a tyrosine kinase implicated in imatinib and lapatinib resistance. Gene expression profilings were measured in NSCLC cell line HCC827 and two erlotinib-resistant HCC827-originated sublines ER3 and T15-2.

Project description:Introduction: The clinical benefit of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with activating EGFR mutations is temporary, as virtually all patients develop acquired EGFR TKI resistance that occurs via diverse mechanisms. Here, we identified increased FGFR1 expression as such a resistance mechanism and using pathways analysis and drug combination testing we identified a novel combination treatment to control growth of these resistant tumors. Methods: Novel erlotinib-resistant NSCLC cell lines were generated and analyzed by mass spectrometry-based proteomics to identify altered pathways associated with erlotinib resistance. The altered pathways were further analyzed in gefitinib and osibenib resistant cell lines. Small molecule inhibitor combinations were used to block the altered pathways and investigate growth reduction in vitro and in two xenograft mouse models. FGFR1 mRNA levels were examined in pre- and (post?)- EGFR TKI treatment clinical tumor samples. Results: Proteomic analysis revealed increased expression of FGFR1 and AXL as well as increased Akt and ERK1/2 activation in a panel of novel erlotinib-resistant HCC827 cell lines. Combined treatment with erlotinib or osimertinib and a panel of small molecule inhibitors targeting AXL/MET, FGFRs, Akt, PI3K/mTOR, MEK or ERK1/2 showed that the most prominent re-sensitization to EGFR TKI occurred with the pan-FGFR inhibitor, PD173074. Interestingly, simultaneous blockade of components of the Akt pathway using specific Akt or dual PI3K-mTOR inhibitors combined with inhibitors targeting the FGFR family exhibited the most efficient growth inhibition of FGFR1 overexpressing EGFR TKI-resistant cell lines. Phosphorylation of proteins downstream of Akt, including PRAS40, FOXO and S6 ribosomal protein, were completely abrogated by PD173074 combined with the Akt inhibitor GSK2141795 . Combination treatment with PD173074 and an Akt inhibitor exhibited synergistic growth inhibition in vivo in two FGFR1 overexpressing NSCLC EGFR TKI-resistant animal models. Conclusion: The significant growth inhibition in vitro and in vivo observed with PD173074 combined with Akt compared to either drug alone imply that inhibition of several key targets may be beneficial in controlling erlotinib-resistant NSCLC. The complete abrogation of PRAS40, FOXO and S6 phosphorylations by PD173074 combined with an Akt inhibitor indicates that the Akt pathway is no longer active.

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.

Project description:Anti-cancer therapies have been limited by emergence of mutations and other adaptations. In bacteria, antibiotics activate the SOS response, which mobilizes error‐prone factors that allow for continuous replication at the cost of mutagenesis. We investigated whether treatment of lung cancer with EGFR inhibitors (EGFRi) similarly engages hypermutators. In cycling drug-tolerant persister (DTP) cells and in EGFRi-treated patients presenting residual disease we observed upregulation of GAS6, while ablation of GAS6’s receptor, AXL, eradicated resistance. Reciprocally, AXL overexpression enhanced DTP survival and accelerated the emergence of T790M, an EGFR mutation typical to resistant cells. Mechanistically, AXL induces low-fidelity DNA polymerases and activates their organizer, RAD18, by promoting neddylation. Metabolomics uncovered another hypermutator, AXL-driven activation of MYC and increased purine synthesis that is unbalanced by pyrimidines. Aligning anti-AXL combination treatments with the transition from DTPs to resistant cells cured patient-derived xenografts. Hence, similar to bacteria, tumors tolerate therapy by engaging pharmacologically targetable endogenous mutators.

Project description:The non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) PC9 cell line is an established preclinical model for tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Recent evidence suggests that the H3K4 demethylase KDM5A protein is required for emerging drug-resistant cell populations. To better understand the dependence of cell survival on H3K4me3 level, we treated the EGFR-mutant PC9 cells with erlotinib and performed ChIP-seq analysis using H3K4me3 antibodies. We were able to identify genomic regions that exhibit decreased H3K4me3 in drug-treated cells. The results of this study will help to address clinical usefulness of KDM5A-targeted strategies in overcoming drug resistance, particularly in NSCLC.
