RNA-seq of AsPC-1 cell line-derived xenograft mouse tumors treated with a MEK-RAF molecular glue, IK-595

ABSTRACT: MAPK pathway alterations are the most common oncogenic drivers. Among the approved therapies targeting this pathway are MEK and RAF inhibitors. However, therapeutic resistance and toxicities have limited their clinical success. To overcome these liabilities, we developed IK595, a potent MEK-RAF molecular glue. IK-595 traps MEK in an inactive complex with all RAF isoforms. In addition, IK-595 precludes CRAF-mediated MEK reactivation and ARAF heterodimerization allowing for prolonged target engagement and durable MAPK pathway inhibition. This project aimed to explore gene expression modulation by IK-595 in AsPC-1 cell line-derived xenograft mice at different time points following last dose. Tumor RNA-seq was performed in AsPC-1 tumor-bearing mice treated with three doses of vehicle or IK-595 (at 6 mg/kg QOD). Tumors from the drug-treated mice were collected and profiled at the following time points after the last dose: 2 hours, 4 hours, 8 hours, 24 hours, and 48 hours (four animals per time point group) - to understand longitudinal gene expression changes after dosing. A significant reduction in most ERK1/2 target genes was observed as early as 2 hours after the last dose, with maximal inhibition observed at 8 hours. Partial recovery of ERK1/2 target gene expression occurred at 24 hours, with most genes returning to baseline levels by 48 hours. While elevated pathway activation following chronic treatment of MAPK pathway inhibitors is known to be associated with resistance in the literature, the expression of ERK1/2 target genes in our study never rebounded above baseline levels upon IK-595 treatment.

Durable Suppression of Acquired MEK Inhibitor Resistance in Cancer by Sequestering MEK from ERK and Promoting Anti-Tumor T-cell Immunity [single-cell RNA-seq]

Project description:Disruption of the MAPK pathway in cancer by kinase inhibition often fails due to pathway reactivation, causing clinical relapse. Among MAPK inhibitors, type I RAF inhibitors are only active against specific BRAF mutants; MEK inhibitor monotherapy is associated with limited clinical benefits but may serve as a foundation for combinatorial therapy. Here, we show that type II RAF plus allosteric MEK inhibitors durably blunt the development of acquired MEK inhibitor resistance among cancers with KRAS, NRAS, NF1, BRAFnon-V600 and BRAFV600 mutations, when compared to a combination of type II RAF plus ERK inhibitors. Type II RAF and MEK (versus ERK) inhibitors also display superior capacity to sequester MEK in RAF complexes and uncouple MEK and ERK interaction in acquired resistant tumor subpopulations. Systemically and intratumorally, type II RAF plus MEK inhibitors expand memory and activated/exhausted CD8+ T-cells. Whereas trametinib alone temporally reduces dominant intra-tumoral T-cell clones, type II RAF inhibitor co-treatment reverses this effect and promotes T-cell clonotypic expansion and convergence. Importantly, durably control of tumors by this combination requires CD8+ T-cells. Thus, the prolonged anti-tumor efficacy of type II RAF plus MEK inhibitors reveals exquisite MAPK addiction in common lethal cancer histologies, and the mechanisms include unexpected allosteric perturbation of the MAPK pathway and engagement of anti-tumor CD8+ T-cell immunity.

Tovorafenib (DAY101) Monotherapy or in Combination With Other Therapies for Patients With Melanoma and Other Solid Tumors

Project description:This is a Phase 1b/2, multi-center, open label umbrella study of patients ≥12 years of age with recurrent, progressive, or refractory melanoma or other solid tumors with alterations in the key proteins of the RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK pathway, referred to as the MAPK pathway.

Pan-Raf co-operates with PI3K-dependent signaling and critically contributes to myeloma cell survival independently of mutated RAS

Project description:The most common oncogenic mutations in multiple myeloma (MM) affect N- and K-RAS leading to constitutive activation of RAS-dependent signaling. Signal transduction via RAS, Raf and MAPK has been well described as a canonical pathway. In accordance with this assumption, we showed that the activity of the MEK/ERK module is strictly dependent on pan-Raf activity. However, inhibition of MEK/ERK has no or only minor effects on MM cell survival, whereas oncogenic Ras and pan-Raf critically contribute to survival of multiple myeloma cells. Therefore, we aimed to learn more about Raf-dependent but MEK-independent signaling effectors. We analyzed gene expression profiles in INA-6 cells after either pan-Raf inhibition with SB-590885 or MEK inhibition with PD-325901.

LFQ of mouse brain in ischemic stroke

Project description:Ischemic disorders are the leading cause of death worldwide. The extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2) are part of the Raf/MEK/ERK1/2 cascade and are thought to affect the outcome of ischemic stroke. However, it is under debate whether activation or inhibition of ERK1/2 is beneficial. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the impact of ERK1/2 after cerebral ischemia using transgenic mice with ubiquitous overexpression of ERK2 or of the Raf kinase inhibitor protein (RKIP), an inhibitor of the ERK1/2 signaling cascade.

IQGAP1 Scaffold-Kinase Interaction Blockade Selectively Targets Ras-MAP Kinase Driven Tumors

Project description:MAPK scaffolds, such as IQGAP1, assemble pathway kinases together to effect signal transmission and disrupting scaffold function therefore offers a potentially orthogonal approach to MAPK cascade inhibition. Consistent with this possibility, we observed an IQGAP1 requirement in Ras-driven tumorigenesis in mouse and human tissue. Delivery of the IQGAP1 WW peptide sequence that mediates Erk1/4 binding, moreover, disrupted IQGAP1-Erk1/2 interactions, abolished Ras/Raf-driven tumorigenesis, bypassed acquired resistance to the B-Raf inhibitor vemurafinib (PLX- 4032), and acts as a systemically deliverable therapeutic to significantly increase lifespan of tumor bearing mice. Scaffold-kinase interaction blockade (SKIB) acts by a mechanism distinct from direct kinase inhibition and represents a strategy to target over-active oncogenic kinase cascades in cancer. Gene expression profiling: Fragmented cRNA was hybridized to the Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (Affymetrix). Iqgap1 wild-type and Iqgap1 knockout mouse treated with topical 4OHT for 0 days and 6 days days are compared.
