Project description:HER2 (ERBB2) gene amplification and PIK3CA mutations often co-occur in breast cancer, and aberrant activation of the PI3K pathway has been implicated in resistance to HER2-directed therapies. We have created a mouse model of HER2-overexpressing (HER2+), PIK3CAH1047R-mutant breast cancer. Mice expressing both human HER2 and mutant PIK3CA in their mammary glands developed tumors with a significantly shorter latency compared to mice expressing either oncogene alone. By microarray analysis, HER2-driven tumors clustered with the luminal subtype, whereas HER2+PIK3CA and PIK3CA-driven tumors were associated with the claudin-low breast cancer subtype. In accordance, PIK3CA and HER2+PIK3CA tumors expressed elevated levels of EMT and stem cell markers, and cells from HER2+PIK3CA tumors more efficiently formed mammospheres, providing further evidence that activated PIK3CA may enrich for cancer stem cells. Finally, HER2+PIK3CA tumors are resistant to the HER2 antibody trastuzumab; resistance is partially reversed by the addition of a PI3K inhibitor. Taken together, these studies suggest that the co-expression of HER2 and PI3KH1047R in the mouse mammary gland accelerates the formation of aggressive, trastuzumab-resistant tumors. referenceXsample

Project description:Mutant PIK3CA and Her2 genes are oncogenic and their co-existence in breast cancer has been well identified. However, the gene targets and cell signalling pathway regulated by mutant PIK3CA, Her2 and both of PIK3CA and Her2 have not been well studied. We established stable cell models through transfecting mutant PIK3CA, Her2 and both mutant PIK3CA and Her2 into MCF10A cells and performed Affymetrix microarray to identify downstream target genes controlled by either mutant PIK3CA, Her2 or both PIK3CA and Her2.

Project description:HER2-targeted therapies including antibody drug conjugates have shown great efficacy in HER2-positive breast cancer. However, resistance to treatment in part due to pre-existing HER2 heterogeneity (HET) is a significant clinical challenge and requires the use of rationally-designed combination therapies. Here we describe transcriptomic profiling of 287 biopsies from 129 patients in a phase II neoadjuvant clinical trial using a combination of T-DM1 and pertuzumab for early-stage HER2-positive breast cancer, we investigated the mechanisms driving T-DM1 resistance. In pre-treatment tumors from patients without a complete response (pCR), distinct molecular features were identified: HER2 HET tumors retained PI3K pathway activation and a basal-like phenotype, while HER2 Non-HET tumors exhibited lower PI3K pathway enrichment. T-DM1 treatment universally reduced HER2 protein expression and copy number heterogeneity while increasing PI3K pathway enrichment and luminal identity in residual tumors. Importantly, HER2 HET tumors showed minimal transcriptomic response compared to HER2 Non-HET tumors, in line with the lesser clinical response. The response to T-DM1 was not associated with hotspot PIK3CA/ERBB2 mutations but rather correlated with immune infiltration. HER2 Non-HET tumors exhibited less effective immune surveillance at baseline but became immune activated with T-DM1 treatment, while HER2 HET tumors exhibited a more immune suppressed microenvironment upon treatment. Our study highlights the multifaceted nature of T-DM1 resistance driven by HER2 heterogeneity and provides essential evidence for optimizing therapeutic strategies for these patients.

Project description:Circulating tumour cells in women with advanced oestrogen-receptor (ER)-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer acquire a HER2-positive subpopulation after multiple courses of therapy. In contrast to HER2-amplified primary breast cancer, which is highly sensitive to HER2-targeted therapy, the clinical significance of acquired HER2 heterogeneity during the evolution of metastatic breast cancer is unknown. Here we analyse circulating tumour cells from 19 women with ER+/HER2- primary tumours, 84% of whom had acquired circulating tumour cells expressing HER2. Cultured circulating tumour cells maintain discrete HER2+ and HER2- subpopulations: HER2+ circulating tumour cells are more proliferative but not addicted to HER2, consistent with activation of multiple signalling pathways; HER2- circulating tumour cells show activation of Notch and DNA damage pathways, exhibiting resistance to cytotoxic chemotherapy, but sensitivity to Notch inhibition. HER2+ and HER2- circulating tumour cells interconvert spontaneously, with cells of one phenotype producing daughters of the opposite within four cell doublings. Although HER2+ and HER2- circulating tumour cells have comparable tumour initiating potential, differential proliferation favours the HER2+ state, while oxidative stress or cytotoxic chemotherapy enhances transition to the HER2- phenotype. Simultaneous treatment with paclitaxel and Notch inhibitors achieves sustained suppression of tumorigenesis in orthotopic circulating tumour cell-derived tumour models. Together, these results point to distinct yet interconverting phenotypes within patient-derived circulating tumour cells, contributing to progression of breast cancer and acquisition of drug resistance. Seventy-four single candidate CTCs from two representative ER+/HER2- patients (BRx-42 and BRx-82) and 14 triple negative patients were isolated via micromanipulation and subjected to single-cell RNA-sequencing. Thirteen candidate CTCs expressed PTPRC at a level higher than 10 reads-per-million, so were deemed potential White Blood Cells and therefore dropped from further consideration. Expression profiles of CTCs expressing ERBB2 at a level greater than 10 RPM were compared with those expressing ERBB2 at a level less than 10 RPM.

Project description:Inhibition of the HER2/ERBB2 receptor is a keystone to treating HER2-positive malignancies, particularly breast cancer, but a significant fraction of HER2-positive (HER2+) breast cancers recur or fail to respond. Anti-HER2 monoclonal antibodies, like trastuzumab or pertuzumab, and ATP active site inhibitors like lapatinib, commonly lack durability because of adaptive changes in the tumor leading to resistance. HER2-directed therapy using clinically relevant drugs (trastuzumab with or without lapatinib or pertuzumab) in a 7-day clinical trial (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01875666, LCCC1214) designed to examine early pharmacodynamic response to antibody-based anti-HER2 therapy showed reduced FOXA1 transcription factor expression was coincident with decreased HER2 and HER3 levels, decreased proliferation gene signatures, and increased immune gene signatures. Patient samples from this trial, when sufficient material was available, were also subjected to kinase enrichment using multiplexed kinase inhibitor bead affinity chromatography and LC-MS/MS. Strongly responsive transcriptional responses observed in a subset of patients corresponded to decreased binding of CDK1 and DDR1 by our proteomic approach. Taken together, our results highlight the importance of the immune response to anti-HER2 antibodies and suggests that inhibiting FOXA1-mediated adaptive responses in combination with HER2 targeting is a potential therapeutic strategy.

Project description:HER2 is a transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase, which plays a key role in breast cancer due to a common genomic amplification. It is used as a marker to stratify patients in the clinic and is targeted by a number of drugs including Trastuzumab and Lapatinib. HER2 has previously been shown to translocate to the nucleus. In this study, we have explored the properties of nuclear HER2 by analysing the binding of this protein to the chromatin in three breast cancer cell lines. We find genome-wide re-programming of HER2 binding after treatment with the growth factor EGF. Over 4,000 HER2 binding sites are found in all three breast cancer cell lines, and these occur near genes involved in protein kinase activity and signal transduction. HER2 was shown to co-localise at a subset of regions demarcated by H3K4me1, a hallmark of functional enhancer elements and HER2/H3K4me1 co-bound regions were enriched near EGF regulated genes providing evidence for their functional role as regulatory elements. A chromatin bound role for HER2 was verified by independent methods, including Proximity Ligation Assay (PLA), which confirmed a close association between HER2 and H3K4me1. Interestingly, HER2 bound to the ErbB2 gene itself indicating a potential self-regulatory mechanism for HER2. Mass spectrometry analysis of the chromatin bound HER2 complex identified EGFR and STAT3 as interacting partners. These findings reveal a global role for HER2 as a chromatin-associated factor that binds to enhancer elements to elicit direct gene expression events in breast cancer cells.
