CDK4/6 and SHP2 mediate BRAF/MEK inhibitor resistance in Class 2 and 3 BRAF mutant cancers

ABSTRACT: Class 2 and 3 non-V600E BRAF mutations are oncogenic drivers in many cancer types. Currently, there are no established targeted therapies with proven efficacy for cancers with non-V600E BRAF mutations. We developed the investigator-initiated, Phase II BEAVER clinical trial (NCT03839342) to evaluate the efficacy of BRAF and MEK inhibitors in patients with non-V600E BRAF mutations. The best objective response rate was 14% (3/21). By analyzing genomic data from patient tumors, circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models generated from enrolled patients, and Class 2 & 3 BRAF mutant cell lines, we discovered MAPK-dependent and independent mechanisms of resistance to BRAF/MEK inhibition. These mechanisms included the acquisition of new mutations in NRAS, MAP2K1, RAF1, and RB in ctDNA at the time of disease progression. CDK4/6 and SHP2 were identified as mediators of intrinsic resistance to BRAF/MEK inhibition in Class 2 & 3 BRAF mutant tumors. Therapeutic strategies combining CDK4/6 or SHP2 inhibitors with BRAF/MEK inhibitors were more effective than BRAF/MEK inhibitors alone in these cancers.

BRAF siRNA NHGRI_Liang_BRAF

Project description:BRAF, one of three RAF serine/threonine kinases (ARAF, BRAF and CRAF), plays a major role in the RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway, which mediates cellular responses to growth signals. Recently a high frequency (~60%-70%) of activating BRAF mutations (predominantly V600E) has been reported in malignant melanoma. In order to identify the downstream effects of BRAF signaling on melanoma cell growth and gene expression, cDNA microarray analysis was carried out following BRAF siRNA or MEK1/2 inhibitor (U0126) treatment. Keywords: time series, siRNA time series, siRNA, drug treatment

Braf inhibitors reverse the unique molecular signature and phenotype of hairy cell leukemia, and exert anti-leukemic activity

Project description:Hairy cell leukemia (HCL) shows unique clinico-pathological and biological features. HCL responds well to purine analogues but relapses are frequent and novel therapies are required. BRAF-V600E is the key driver mutation in HCL and distinguishes it from other B-cell lymphomas, including HCL-like leukemias/lymphomas (HCL-variant and splenic marginal zone lymphoma). The kinase-activating BRAF-V600E mutation also represents an ideal therapeutic target in HCL. Here, we investigated the biological and therapeutic importance of the activated BRAF-MEK-ERK pathway in HCL by exposing in vitro primary leukemic cells purified from 26 patients to clinically available BRAF (Vemurafenib; Dabrafenib) or MEK (Trametinib) inhibitors. Results were validated in vivo in samples from Vemurafenib-treated HCL patients within a phase-2 clinical trial. BRAF and MEK inhibitors caused, specifically in HCL (but not HCL-like) cells, marked MEK/ERK dephosphorylation, silencing of the BRAF-MEK-ERK pathway transcriptional output, loss of the HCL-specific gene expression signature, downregulation of the HCL markers CD25, TRAP and cyclin-D1, smoothening of leukemic cells' hairy surface, and, eventually, apoptosis. Apoptosis was partially blunted by co-culture with bone marrow stromal cells antagonizing MEK-ERK dephosphorylation. This protective effect could be counteracted by combined BRAF and MEK inhibition. Our results strongly support and inform the clinical use of BRAF and MEK inhibitors in HCL. Analysis of differential gene expression in primary leukemic cells purified from peripheral blood of 6 HCL patients (from A to F), treated with Vemurafenib 1000 nM, in comparison with vehicle-treated (DMSO) HCL cells, for 48 hours or/and 72 hours. 24 gene expression profiles were analysed.

Analysis of A375 and A375 clones that acquired resistance to GSK2118436 after treatment with GSK2118436 (GSK436), GSK1120212 (GSK212), or the combination of GSK2118436 and GSK1120212 for 24 hour

Project description:In an effort to understand the mechanisms of acquired resistance to BRAF inhibitors, we isolated clones that acquired resistance to the BRAF inhibitor GSK2118436 derived from the A375 BRAF V600E mutant melanoma cell line. This resistance clones acquired mutations in NRAS and MEK1. One clones, 16R6-4, acquired two mutations in NRAS – Q61K and A146T. Proliferation and western blot analyses demonstrated that these clones were insensitive to single agent GSK2118436 or GSK1120212 (an allosteric MEK inhibitor) but were sensitive to the combination of GSK2118436 and GSK1120212. To further characterize this combination, global transcriptomic analysis was performed in A375 and 16R6-4 after 24 hour treatment with GSK2118436, GSK1120212 or the combination of GSK2118436 and GSK1120212. This data set was published in Molecular Cancer Therapeutics with the title “Combined inhibition of BRAF and MEK, BRAF and PI3K/mTOR, or MEK and PI3K/mTOR overcomes acquired resistance to the BRAF inhibitor GSK2118436, mediated by NRAS or MEK mutations” by Greger, J.G., et.al. A375 and 16R6-4 (an A375 derived GSK2118436 resistance clone) were treated for 24 hours with 0.1 micromolar GSK2118436, 1 micromolar GSK2118436, 0.01 micromolar GSK1120212, 0.1 micromolar GSK2118436 + 0.01 micromolar GSK1120212, or 1 micromolar GSK2118436 + 0.01 micromolar GSK1120212.

Transcription profiling of human panel of V600E BRAF and RTK-activated tumor cells and xenografts upon MEK inhibition

Project description:This study used microarray expression analysis to identify global changes in transcript alteration in response to MEK inhibition. Genes under ERK control were identified in a panel of V600E BRAF and RTK-activated tumor cells and xenografts, using short-term inhibition of ERK activity using the MEK inhibitor PD0325901 (Pfizer). Experiment Overall Design: Cell lines growing in culture (n=12) and murine xenografts (n=2) were treated with the MEK inhibitor PD0325901 or vehicle alone as control. Paired analysis of MEK inhibited to control samples was performed for two groups of tumor cells, V600E BRAF and RTK. Time course analysis was performed on one representative cell line in order to first determine the optimal time point to detect changes in all cell lines.

Comparing gene expression profiles of pigmented and amelanotic (MPNST-like) melanomas arising in the genetically engineered BRAF(V600E)-Cdk4(R24C) mouse melanoma model

Project description:We found that pigmented and amelanotic (MPNST-like) melanomas arise in the genetically engineered BRAF(V600E)-Cdk4(R24C) mouse melanoma model and even in the same animal. To explore the molecular differences between the two type of melanomas in this model we performed global gene expression profiling and pathway analysis to compare the underlying mechanisms. This information was used to identify human melanomas that resemble each type of the mouse melanomas found in the in the genetically engineered BRAF(V600E)-Cdk4(R24C) mouse melanoma model.

Identification of distinct molecular signatures in BRAF V600E and BRAF wt cutaneous melanomas

Project description:The purpose of this study was to investigate the presence of a gene expression signature in BRAF V600E melanomas compared to wild type ones, all derived from sun-exposed sites. Microdissected tissues from excisional biopsies of 18 cutaneous melanomas were analyzed to detect the presence of BRAF and NRAS mutations and to profile whole genome expression by means of oligonucleotide microarrays. Class comparison methods were used to select differentially expressed genes between wild type and mutated lesions. Real Time RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry were applied to validate differences at the mRNA and protein levels on an independent cohort of samples. BRAF mutations were evidenced in 67% of melanomas. All of them consisted of the oncogenic change V600E (and the mutation event was independent of Clark's level). Data indicate that in V600E melanomas there is an over-expression of cancer stem cell markers and an upregulation of important oncogenes, like KRAS. This, together with the downregulation of genes involved in oxidative UV stress response and immuno system defense, confers an advantage to V600E melanomas compared to wt lesions. Moreover, the downregulation of topoisomerase I and CDKN2A results in an increased replicative potential associated with a decrease in senescence markers and a diminished DNA damage response. As far as the wild-type lesions, we interestingly pointed out the overexpression of PML, PIK3CA and the downregulation of two tumour suppressor genes (BRCA1 and TP73) relevant to DNA repair.
