NF1-depleted ER+ breast cancers are differentially sensitive to CDK4/6 inhibitors

ABSTRACT: Neurofibromin/NF1-depletion (NF1low) is associated with endocrine therapy resistance in approximately 20% of ER+/HER2– early-stage breast cancer but specific treatments for NF1low tumors are not established. Proteogenomic analyses on ER+/HER2– breast cancer demonstrated that NF1low tumors exhibit elevated CDK4/6 activity. NF1-silencing in cell lines promoted ER recruitment to CCND1, thus increasing cyclin-D1 levels. Additionally, RAF is demonstrated to directly phosphorylate the CDK4 activation-loop (pT172) thus providing a direct connection between NF1 loss and an increase in CDK4 activity. Consequently, NF1low cancer cells are differentially sensitive to a fulvestrant plus CDK4/6 inhibitor (CDK4/6i) combination, with cell-death induction in vitro, and durable tumor regressions in ER+ NF1low PDX models in vivo. Furthermore, NF1low ER+/HER2– tumors treated neoadjuvantly with 4 weeks of anastrozole exhibited a minimal reduction of a multigene mRNA proliferation score vs NF1high tumors but exhibited marked sensitivity to the subsequent addition of palbociclib. In conclusion, dual ER and downstream RAF activation following NF1-loss drives endocrine therapy resistance and CDK4/6i sensitivity in NF1low ER+ breast cancer. NF1 status should therefore be prioritized for biomarker investigations in adjuvant CDK4/6i trials to determine whether the NF1low status identifies a particularly sensitive subset where CDK4/6i therapy is critical.

FOXA1 phosphorylation by CDK4 prevents activation of novel chromatin regions and HER2 expression in breast cancer

Project description:Cyclin Dependent Kinase 4/6 inhibitors induce transcription in breast tumors via FOXA1 chromatin binding. The use of Cyclin Dependent Kinase 4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) induce transcription in breast tumors. The control mechanism of such genomic changes and their physiological relevance are not elucidated yet. Now, we identified chromatin activation of tumors treated with CDK4/6i. These chromatin changes induce an increase of HER2 expression and signaling. Mechanically, our study demonstrates that FOXA1 is a new substrate of CDK4 and that its phosphorylation limits the binding of FOXA1 to conventional chromatin regions. Moreover, when patients are treated with CDK4/6i, a dephosphorylated FOXA1 binds to additional chromatin regions. By doing so, FOXA1 leads to an increase of HER2 expression and of the activation of HER2-MEK-ERK pathway in breast cancer patients. Accordingly, we might envision a clinical benefit of adding antiHER2 therapy to delay development of resistance and therefore, to prolong PFS in patients yet receiving CDK4/6i.

Genes expression alterations associated with resistance to combined CDK4/6 inhibitor and endocrine therapy in ER+ breast cancer

Project description:Combined CDK4/6 inhibitor (CDK4/6i) and endocrine therapy significantly improves the outcome of patients with advanced estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer. However, resistance to this treatment and resultant disease progression remains a major clinical challenge. High expression of the receptor tyrosine kinase REarranged during Transfection (RET) has been associated with resistance to endocrine therapy in breast cancer, but the role of RET in CDK4/6i treatment response/resistance remains unexplored. To identify gene expression alterations associated with resistance to combined endocrine therapy and CDK4/6i, we performed global gene expression analysis and RNA sequencing of two ER+ breast cancer cell models resistant to this combined therapy.

Protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) is an actionable therapeutic target in CDK4/6 inhibitor-resistant ER+/RB-deficient breast cancer [RNA-seq_siPRMT5]

Project description:CDK4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) have improved survival of patients with estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer. However, patients treated with CDK4/6i eventually develop drug resistance and progress. RB1 loss-of-function alterations confer resistance to CDK4/6i, but the optimal therapy for these patients is unclear. Through a genome-wide CRISPR screen, we identified protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) as a molecular vulnerability in ER+/RB1-knockout (RBKO) breast cancer cells. Inhibition of PRMT5 blocked the G1-to-S transition in the cell cycle independent of RB, leading to growth arrest in RBKO cells. Proteomics analysis uncovered fused in sarcoma (FUS) as a downstream effector of PRMT5. Inhibition of PRMT5 resulted in dissociation of FUS from RNA polymerase II (Pol II), which led to Ser2 Pol II hyperphosphorylation, intron retention, and subsequent downregulation of proteins involved in DNA synthesis. Furthermore, treatment with the PRMT5 inhibitor pemrametostat and a selective ER degrader fulvestrant synergistically inhibited growth of ER+/RB-deficient cell-derived and patient-derived xenografts. These findings highlight the potential of dual ER and PRMT5 blockade as a novel therapeutic strategy to overcome resistance to CDK4/6i in ER+/RB-deficient breast cancer.

Microarray gene expression data from MCF-7 and LetR cells

Project description:Resistance to aromatase inhibitor (AI) treatment and combined CDK4/6 inhibitor (CDK4/6i) and endocrine therapy (ET) are crucial clinical challenges in treating estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer. Understanding the resistance mechanisms and identifying reliable predictive biomarkers and novel treatment combinations to overcome resistance are urgently needed. Herein, we show that upregulation of CDK6, p-CDK2, and/or cyclin E1 is associated with adaptation and resistance to AI-monotherapy and combined CDK4/6i and ET in ER+ advanced breast cancer. Importantly, co-targeting CDK2 and CDK4/6 with ET synergistically impairs cellular growth, induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, and delays progression in AI-resistant and combined CDK4/6i and fulvestrant-resistant cell models and in an AI-resistant autocrine breast tumor in a postmenopausal xenograft model. Analysis of CDK6, p-CDK2, and/or cyclin E1 expression as a combined biomarker in metastatic lesions of ER+ advanced breast cancer patients treated with AI-monotherapy or combined CDK4/6i and ET revealed a correlation between high biomarker expression and shorter progression-free survival (PFS), and the biomarker combination was an independent prognostic factor in both patients cohorts. Our study supports the clinical development of therapeutic strategies co-targeting ER, CDK4/6 and CDK2 following progression on AI-monotherapy or combined CDK4/6i and ET to improve survival of patients exhibiting high tumor levels of CDK6, p-CDK2, and/or cyclin E1.

RNA sequencing of luminal breast cancer patient-derived xenografts (PDX) library to capture tumor heterogeneity and explore the mechanisms of resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors

Project description:Combining CDK4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) with endocrine therapy has proven clinically effective and represents now the first-line treatment for advanced Luminal Breast Cancer (LBC) patients. However, resistance to CDK4/6i almost invariably arises in these patients, emphasising the critical need to comprehend these mechanisms and develop new strategies to overcome resistance. We report on the generation and characterisation of a LBC PDX displaying acquired resistance to CDK4/6i palbociclib. Treating a sensitive luminal BC PDX with the CDK4/6i palbociclib revealed that, despite initial tumour shrinkage, some tumours might eventually regrow under drug treatment. RNA sequencing, followed by gene set enrichment analyses, unveiled that this PDX have become refractory to CDK4/6i, both at biological and molecular level.

ESR1 Y537S and D538G mutations drive resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors in estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer

Project description:Purpose: Breast cancers with ESR1 mutations are resistant to antiestrogen therapy. We aimed to investigate the association of ESR1 mutations with resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) using real-world data analysis and experimental validation. Patients and Methods: A total of 3,958 patients with estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) metastatic breast cancer with DNA sequencing data were analyzed. Breast tumor DNA and circulating tumor (ct) DNA were sequenced using the Tempus xT tumor assay and Tempus xF liquid biopsy, respectively. Patients were stratified into either treated with CDK4/6i (breast tumors: 1,070; ctDNA: 1,885) or CDK4/6i naïve (breast tumors: 750; ctDNA: 253). Engineered MCF7 cells carrying ESR1 Y537S or D538G knock-in mutations were used to study antitumor efficacy of the CDK4/6i, palbociclib in vitro and in vivo. Results: In both xF and xT assays, ESR1 mutations were the only somatic alterations significantly more frequent in those who received CDK4/6i than those who did not. Knock-in of ESR1 Y537S or ESR1 D538G in MCF7 cells resulted in upregulation of cell cycle-related gene signatures upon treatment with CDK4/6i ± antiestrogen compared to cells with non-mutant ESR1. MCF7 xenografts harboring ESR1 Y537S and D538G mutations established in nude mice were resistant to palbociclib. Conclusions: We report herein real-world and preclinical evidence that ESR1 mutations, particularly Y537S and D538G, can drive resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors.

Characterizing of Breast Cancer translational PEARL clinical trial

Project description:Introduction In HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer (MBC) is imperative to identify patients who respond poorly to CDK4/6i and to discover therapeutic targets to reverse this resistance. Non-luminal breast cancer subtype and high levels of CCNE1 are candidate biomarkers in this setting but further validation is needed. Methods We performed mRNA gene expression profiling and correlation with progression-free-survival (PFS) on 455 tumor samples included in the phase III PEARL study, that assigned HR+/HER2- MBC patients to receive palbociclib+ET vs capecitabine. ER+/HER2- breast cancer cell lines were used to generate and characterize resistance to palbociclib+ET. Results Non-luminal subtype was more prevalent in metastatic (14%) than in primary tumor samples (4%). Patients with non-luminal tumors had median PFS of 2.4months (m) with palbociclib+ET and 9.3m with capecitabine; HR:4.16, adjusted p-value<0.0001. Tumors with high CCNE1 expression (above median) had also worse median PFS with palbociclib+ET (6.2m) than with capecitabine (9.3m); HR:1.55, adjusted p-value=0.0036. In patients refractory to palbociclib+ET (PFS in the lower quartile) we found higher levels of Polo Like Kinase 1 (PLK1). In an independent data set (PALOMA3), tumors with high PLK1 show worse median PFS than those with low PLK1 expression under palbociclib+ET treatment. In ER+/HER2- cell line models we show that PLK1 inhibition reverses resistance to palbociclib+ET. Conclusion We confirm the association of non-luminal subtype and CCNE1 with resistance to CDK4/6i+ET in HR+ MBC. High levels of PLK1 mRNA identify patients with poor response to palbociclib, suggesting PLK1 could also play a role in the setting of resistance to CDK4/6i.
