CDK8 remodels the tumor microenvironment to resist the therapeutic efficacy of targeted KRASG12D inhibition in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (spatial)

ABSTRACT: Mutations in KRAS are a dominant driver of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), with over 40% of PDAC patients presenting with KRASG12D mutations. The recent development of small molecule inhibitors targeting KRASG12D, has enabled effective targeting of mutant KRAS signaling and suppression of PDAC; however, the contribution of the tumor microenvironment (TME) to the therapeutic efficacy of KRASG12D inhibition and mechanism/s of resistance to KRASG12D suppression remain to be elucidated. Here, we employed spatial transcriptomics and CODEX-based spatial proteomics to evaluate cancer cell intrinsic and extrinsic responses to KRASG12D inhibition with MRTX1133. MRTX1133 treatment was associated with increased CD11c+ cells, T cells, and tumor-restraining fibroblasts within proximity to cancer cells, suggesting that antigen presentation and remodeling of the local microenvironment is associated with an effective response to KRASG12D inhibition. In the context of emergence of MRTX1133 therapy resistance, CDK8, a multiprotein mediator complex associated kinase, was identified as a mediator of resistance in part through induction of downstream CXCL2 chemokine secretion, inhibition of FAS expression, and remodeling of the TME to promote immune evasion. Targeting CDK8 in combination with aCTLA-4 immunotherapy overcomes resistance to small molecule mediated targeted KRASG12D inhibition with prolonged survival of mice with PDAC.

CDK8 remodels the tumor microenvironment to resist the therapeutic efficacy of targeted KRASG12D inhibition in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (scRNA)

Mechanisms of resistance to oncogenic KRAS inhibition in pancreatic cancer

Project description:KRAS inhibitors demonstrate clinical efficacy in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC); however, resistance is common. Among patients with KRASG12C-mutant PDAC treated with adagrasib or sotorasib, mutations in PIK3CA and KRAS, and amplifications of KRASG12C, MYC, MET, EGFR, and CDK6 emerged at acquired resistance. In PDAC cell lines and organoid models treated with the KRASG12D inhibitor MRTX1133, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and PI3K-AKT-mTOR signaling associate with resistance to therapy. MRTX1133 treatment of the KrasLSL-G12D/+;Trp53LSL-R172H/+;p48-Cre (KPC) mouse model yielded deep tumor regressions, but drug resistance ultimately emerged, accompanied by amplifications of Kras, Yap1, Myc, and Cdk6/Abcb1a/b, and co-evolution of drug-resistant transcriptional programs. Moreover, in KPC and PDX models, mesenchymal and basal-like cell states displayed increased response to KRAS inhibition compared to the classical state. Combination treatment with KRASG12D inhibition and chemotherapy significantly improved tumor control in PDAC mouse models. Collectively, these data elucidate co-evolving resistance mechanisms to KRAS inhibition and support multiple combination therapy strategies.

Dual inhibition of KRASG12D and pan-ERBB is synergistic in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a lethal cancer with a low survival rate. Recently, new drugs that target KRASG12D, a common mutation in PDAC, have been developed. We studied one of these compounds, MRTX1133, and found it was specific and effective at low nanomolar concentrations in patient-derived organoid models and cell lines harboring KRASG12D mutations. Treatment with MRTX1133 upregulated the expression and phosphorylation of EGFR and HER2, indicating that inhibition of ERBB signaling may potentiate MRTX1133 anti-tumor activity. Indeed, the irreversible pan-ERBB inhibitor, afatinib, potently synergized with MRTX1133 in vitro, and cancer cells with acquired resistance to MRTX1133 in vitro remained sensitive to this combination therapy. Finally, the combination of MRTX1133 and afatinib led to tumor regression and longer survival in orthotopic PDAC mouse models. These results suggest that dual inhibition of ERBB and KRAS signaling may be synergistic and circumvent the rapid development of acquired resistance in patients with KRAS mutant pancreatic cancer.

PANCREATIC DUCTAL ADENOCARCINOMAS RESISTANT TO KRAS INHIBITION ARE DRUGGABLE WITH AN ANTI-MUC1-C ADC

Project description:Treatment of pancreatic ductal carcinomas (PDACs) has been advanced by the development of KRAS mutant inhibitors. Despite this progress, PDACs invariably develop resistance to these agents by mechanisms that largely remain unclear. The MUC1 gene, which encodes an oncogenic MUC1-C protein, is upregulated in PDAC KRAS G12D tumors. We report that treatment of PDAC cells with the selective KRAS G12D MRTX1133 inhibitor is associated with induction of MUC1-C expression. We show that KRAS G12D inhibition activates a MUC1-C/NF-B p65 auto-inductive pathway. Our results further demonstrate that MUC1-C drives resistance to MRTX1133 by activating the inflammatory IFN type I and II pathways. Of clinical relevance, targeting MUC1-C genetically and pharmacologically reverses MRTX1133 resistance and is synergistic in combination with MRTX1133 treatment. In leveraging MRTX1133-induced upregulation of MUC1-C expression, an anti-MUC1-C (M1C) antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) is highly effective against MRTX1133-resistant PDAC KRAS G12D cell lines, patient-derived organoids and PDX tumor xenograft models. These findings demonstrate that MUC1-C confers resistance of PDAC KRAS G12D mutant cells to MRTX1133 and identify MUC1-C as a target for M1C ADC treatment of PDAC patients who are refractory to MRTX1133 treatment.

Extracellular niche and tumor microenvironment enhance the impact of KRAS inhibitors in pancreatic cancer models [CRISPR]

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive disease for which new therapeutic interventions are needed. Here, we assessed the cellular response to pharmacological KRAS inhibition, targeting the central oncogenic factor in PDAC. In a panel of PDAC cell lines, pharmaceutical inhibition of the KRASG12D allele with MRTX1133 yields variable efficacy in the suppression of cell growth and downstream gene expression programs in 2D culture. CRISPR-Cas9 loss-of-function screens identified ITGB1 as a novel driver for enhanced therapeutic response that regulates mechanotransdcution signaling and YAP/TAZ expression, which is further confirmed by gene specific knockdowns and combinatorial drug synergy. Interestingly, MRTX1133 is considerably more efficacious in the context of 3D cell cultures. Moreover, MRTX1133 elicits a more pronounced cytostatic effect in controlling the in vivo tumor growth in PDAC patient-derived xenografts. In syngeneic models, KRASG12D inhibition leads to potent tumor regression that did not occur in immune-deficient hosts. Digital spatial profiling on tumor tissues indicates that MRTX1133-mediated KRAS inhibition enhances interferon-γ signaling and induces antigen presentation that modulates the tumor microenvironment. Further investigation on the immunological response using single-cell sequencing and multispectral imaging reveals that tumor regression is associated with suppression of neutrophils and influx of effector CD8+ T-cells. Thus, both tumor cell-intrinsic and extrinsic events contribute to response and credential KRASG12D inhibition as a promising strategy for a large percentage of PDAC tumors.

An Allele Agnostic Mutant KRAS Inhibitor Demonstrates Broad Spectrum Tumour Growth Inhibition in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

Project description:Mutations in KRAS are a dominant driver of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), with over 40% of PDAC patients presenting with KRASG12D mutations. The recent development of small molecule inhibitors targeting KRASG12D, has enabled effective targeting of mutant KRAS signaling and suppression of PDAC; however, the contribution of the tumor microenvironment (TME) to the therapeutic efficacy of KRASG12D inhibition and mechanism/s of resistance to KRASG12D suppression remain to be elucidated. Here, we employed spatial transcriptomics to evaluate cancer cell intrinsic and extrinsic responses to KRASG12D inhibition with panKRASi (BI-2493). In panKRASi-treated immune-replete models, we observe increased intratumoral CD8+ effector T cells and decreased infiltration of myeloid cells, along with remodeling of the tumor microenvironment (TME). In addition, both Cxcl9 and Cxcl10 expression were upregulated in KPCYG12D tumors upon panKRASi treatmen. To dissect the involvement of CAF subtypes in the panKRASi response, we utilized a RCTD deconvolution approach to evaluate their abundance, showing no significant differences in the overall CAF subtype population but a visible increase in the myCAFs population under panKRASi treatment. Focus on cancer-intrinsic mechanisms we reported a switch in cellular identity towards the gene expression of classical signatures in panKRASi treated tumors in both canonical Moffit signature and metaprogram-derived signature. In addition, a decrease in cell cycle-related pathways (E2F targets, G2M checkpoints) and EMT signature was reported for panKRASi treated samples combined with a clear switch from glycolysis to oxidative phosphorylation under treatment with a decrease in p53 and TNF⍺ signaling via NFⲕΒ.
