Multi-selective RAS(ON) Inhibition Targets Oncogenic RAS Mutations and Overcomes RAS/MAPK-Mediated Resistance to FLT3 and BCL2 Inhibitors in Acute Myeloid Leukemia

ABSTRACT: Aberrant activation of the RAS/MAPK signaling limits the clinical efficacy of several targeted therapies in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In FLT3-mutant AML, the selection of clones harboring heterogeneous RAS mutations drives resistance to FLT3 inhibitors (FLT3i). RAS activation is also associated with resistance to other AML targeted therapies, including the BCL2 inhibitor venetoclax. Despite the critical need to inhibit RAS/MAPK signaling in AML, no targeted therapies have demonstrated clinical benefit in RAS-driven AML. To address this unmet need, we investigated the preclinical activity of RMC-7977, a multi-selective inhibitor of GTP-bound active [RAS(ON)] isoforms of mutant and wild-type RAS in AML models. RMC-7977 exhibited potent antiproliferative and pro-apoptotic activity across AML cell lines with MAPK-activating signaling mutations. In Molm-14 and OCIAML-3 cell lines, RMC=7977 downregulated expression of genesets involved in RAS/MAPK and PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling, as well as MYC targets and cell cycle regulators.

Tumor-selective effects of active RAS inhibition in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

Project description:Broad-spectrum RAS inhibition holds the potential to benefit roughly a quarter of human cancer patients whose tumors are driven by RAS mutations. RMC-7977 is a highly selective inhibitor of the active GTP-bound forms of KRAS, HRAS, and NRAS, with affinity for both mutant and wild type (WT) variants. As >90% of human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cases are driven by activating mutations in KRAS, we assessed the therapeutic potential of RMC-7977 in a comprehensive range of PDAC models, including human and murine cell lines, patient-derived organoids, human PDAC explants, subcutaneous and orthotopic cell-line or patient-derived xenografts, syngeneic allografts, and genetically engineered mouse models. We observed broad and pronounced anti-tumor activity across these models following direct RAS inhibition at doses and concentrations that were well-tolerated in vivo. Pharmacological analyses revealed divergent responses to RMC-7977 in tumor versus normal tissues. Treated tumors exhibited waves of apoptosis along with sustained proliferative arrest whereas normal tissues underwent only transient decreases in proliferation, with no evidence of apoptosis. Together, these data establish a strong preclinical rationale for the use of broad-spectrum RAS inhibition in the setting of PDAC.

Transcriptomic changes induced by allosteric inhibitor RMC-4550 in FLT3 and KIT mutant human AML cell lines

Project description:Targeting the MAPK signaling is an effective therapeutic approach in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with mutations in FLT3 and KIT tyrosine kinase receptors. SHP2 is a central node in the MAPK signaling pathway and SHP2 inhibition was shown to supress leukemia proliferation in vitro and in vivo. In order to investigate the gene expression alterations induced by allosteric SHP2 inhibition and identify potential co-targets for pharmacological inhibition, we treated three human FLT3 and KIT mutant AML cell lines with RMC-4550 and performed RNAseq.

ABHD17 regulation of plasma membrane palmitoylation and N-Ras-dependent cancer growth

Project description:A subset of Ras proteins, including N-Ras, depend on a palmitoylation/depalmitoylation cycle to regulate their subcellular trafficking and oncogenicity. General lipase inhibitors such as Palmostatin M block N-Ras depalmitoylation, but lack specificity and target several enzymes displaying depalmitoylase activity. Here, we describe ABD957, a potent and selective covalent inhibitor of the ABHD17 family of depalmitoylases, and show that this compound impairs N-Ras depalmitoylation in human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells. ABD957 produced partial effects on N-Ras palmitoylation compared to Palmostatin M, but was much more selective across the proteome, reflecting a plasma membrane-delineated action on dynamically palmitoylated proteins. Finally, ABD957 impaired N-Ras signaling and the growth of NRAS-mutant AML cells in a manner that synergizes with MEK inhibition. Our findings uncover a surprisingly restricted role for ABHD17 enzymes as regulators of the N-Ras palmitoylation cycle and suggest that ABHD17 inhibitors may have value as targeted therapies for NRAS-mutant cancers.

Mechanisms of response and tolerance to active RAS inhibition in KRAS-mutant NSCLC

Project description:Resistance to inactive state-selective RASG12C inhibitors frequently entails accumulation of RASGTP, rendering effective inhibition of active RAS potentially desirable. Here, we evaluated the anti-tumor activity of the RAS(ON) multi-selective tri-complex inhibitor RMC-7977 and dissected mechanisms of response and tolerance in KRASG12C-mutant NSCLC. Broad-spectrum, reversible RASGTP inhibition with or without concurrent covalent targeting of active RASG12C yielded superior and differentiated antitumor activity across diverse co-mutational KRASG12C-mutant NSCLC mouse models of primary or acquired RASG12C(ON) or (OFF) inhibitor resistance. Interrogation of time-resolved single cell transcriptional responses established an in vivo atlas of multi-modal acute and chronic RAS pathway inhibition in the NSCLC ecosystem and uncovered a regenerative mucinous transcriptional program that supports long-term tumor cell persistence. In patients with advanced KRASG12C-mutant NSCLC, the presence of mucinous histological features portended poor response to sotorasib or adagrasib. Our results have potential implications for personalized medicine and the development of rational RAS inhibitor-anchored therapeutic strategies.

Inhibition of NLRP3 enhances pro-apoptotic effects of FLT3 inhibition in AML

Project description:FLT3 mutations occur in approximately 25% of all acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. While several FLT3 inhibitors have received FDA approval, their use is currently limited to combination therapies with chemotherapy, as resistance occurs, and efficacy decreases when the inhibitors are used alone. Given the highly heterogeneous nature of AML, there is an urgent need for novel targeted therapies that address the disease from multiple angles. Recent research has identified the NLRP3 inflammasome as a potential new driver in AML. Here, we investigated the efficacy of different NLRP3 inhibitors in targeting AML cells in vitro. Our findings reveal that NLRP3 inhibition induces cell cycle arrest as well as signs of senescence in multiple AML cell lines. In contrast, NLRP3 inhibition selectively induced apoptosis in FLT3 mutant AML cell lines, but not in FLT3 wild-type AML cells. Moreover, we show that NLRP3 inhibition impairs FLT3 signaling by reducing both FLT3 expression as well as downstream signaling in FLT3 mutant cells. A database analysis revealed a strong positive correlation between FLT3 and NLRP3 in cancer, which was particularly evident in AML patients. Strikingly, the simultaneous inhibition of NLRP3 and FLT3 markedly enhanced apoptosis in FLT3-ITD mutant AML cells, but not in FLT3 wild-type cells. In summary, this study reveals a promising combined therapeutic strategy specifically targeting NLRP3/FLT3-ITD positive AML blasts in vitro, highlighting a potential new avenue for AML treatment.

Oncogenic potential of RAS isoforms in melanocytes

Project description:We compared the transformation efficiencies of mutant NRAS and KRAS in immortal, non-transformed Ink4a/Arf-deficient melanocytes. NRAS mutation leads to increased cellular proliferation and is potently tumorigenic. In contrast, KRAS mutation does not enhance melanocyte proliferation and is only weakly tumorigenic on its own. While both NRAS and KRAS activate MAPK signaling, only NRAS enhances MYC activity in these cells. Our data suggests that the activity of specific RAS isoforms is context dependent and provides a possible explanation for the prevalence of NRAS mutations in melanoma.In addition, understanding this mechanism will have important implications for cancer therapies targeting RAS pathways.

Pharmaceutical inhibition of RAS overcomes cytokine mediated resistance to FLT3 inhibition in FLT3-ITD+ AML [RNA-seq]

Project description:AML is characterised by a variety of co-occurring driver mutations in genes associated with cell signallingand growth regulationsuch as the FLT3-ITD. Inhibitors targeting FLT3 (FLT3i) are beingused to treat FLT3-ITD+ patients but most relapse.By profiling the gene regulatory networks of samples from patients before and after FLT3i treatment weobservedan increase in AP-1 mediated and a loss of RUNX1 mediated connections in treatment resistant cells. Treatmentinducesupregulation of signalling pathway genesindicatingthat cytokines mediate resistance to FLT3i, with IL-3 playing a major role. IL3 rescues survival by counteracting FLT3i mediated globalRUNX1 degradation and adown-regulationof bindingof RUNX1 in chromatin.To identify inhibitors which bypass the RUNX1 barrier we inhibitedMAPK signalling with a novel pan-RAS inhibitor which overcomes cytokine mediated resistance.Our data show (I) that cytokinesinstructAML maintenance via the stabilisation of transcriptional regulators and (ii)pan-RAS drugs bypass thisbarrier, suggesting a novel approach to treatment of AML.
