Project description:Microarrays were used to determine the efficacy of bevacizumab (a monoclonal antibody against the vascular endothelial growth factor and its receptors.) on endometrial cancer cells. Endometrial cancer is the most frequent gynecologic cancer in women. Long term outcomes for patients with advanced stage or recurrent disease are poor. Targeted molecular therapy against the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its receptors constitute a new therapeutic option for these patients. The goal of our work was to assess the potential effectiveness of inhibition of VEGF/VEGFR signaling in a xenograft model of endometrial cancer using bevacizumab (Avastin, a humanized antibody against VEGFA). We also aimed to identify molecular markers of sensitivity or resistance to this agent. We show that bevacizumab retards tumor growth in athymic mice by inhibiting molecular components of signaling pathways that sustain cell survival and proliferation. We also demonstrate that resistance to bevacizumab may involve up-regulation of antiapoptotic genes and certain proto-oncogenes.

Project description:Bevacizumab induces glioblastoma resistance in two in vivo xenograft models. Two cell lines were developed with acquired resistance to bevacizumab. Gene expression difference were analyzed between treated and untreated tumors. Purpose: Antiangiogenic therapy reduces vascular permeability and delays progression but may ultimately promote an aggressive treatment-resistant phenotype. The aim of the present study was to identify mechanisms responsible for glioblastoma resistance to antiangiogenic therapy. Experimental Design: Glioma stem cell (GSC) NSC11 and U87 cell lines with acquired resistance to bevacizumab were developed from orthotopic xenografts in nude mice treated with bevacizumab. Genome-wide analyses were used to identify changes in tumor subtype and specific factors associated with resistance. Results: Mice with established parental NSC11 and U87 cells responded to bevacizumab, whereas glioma cell lines derived at the time of acquired resistance to anti-VEGF therapy were resistant to bevacizumab and did not have prolongation of survival compared to untreated controls. Gene expression profiling comparing anti-VEGF therapy-resistant cell lines to untreated controls demonstrated an increase in genes associated with a mesenchymal origin, cellular migration/invasion, and inflammation. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) demonstrated that bevacizumab-treated tumors showed a highly significant correlation to published mesenchymal gene signatures. Mice bearing resistant tumors showed significantly greater infiltration of myeloid cells in NSC11 and U87 resistant tumors. Invasion-related genes were also upregulated in both NSC11 and U87 resistant cells, which had higher invasion rates in vitro compared with their respective parental cell lines. Conclusions: Our studies identify multiple pro-inflammatory factors associated with resistance and identify a proneural-to-mesenchymal transition (PMT) in tumors resistant to antiangiogenic therapy. Glioma cell lines were injected into the caudate of nude mice and were allowed to grow untreated (samples labeled control) or were treated with 10 mg/kg IP twice weekly with bevacizumab (samples labeled Avastin). At the time of animal death, tumor tissue from the mouse was removed, and RNA was isolated and analyzed using gene expression. U87R and NSC11R represent cells resistant to bevacizumab (Avastin).

Project description:Immuno-priming with bevacizumab: durvalumab plus bevacizumab after prolonged exposition to bevacizumab in breast cancer
| PRJNA578152 | ENA
Project description:The VEGF targeted antiangiogenic drug bevacizumab has shown varying results in clinical trials of breast cancer. Identifying robust biomarkers for selecting patients that may benefit from bevacizumab treatment and for monitoring of response is important for the future use of this drug. Two established xenograft models representing basal-like and luminal-like breast cancer were used to study bevacizumab treatment response on the metabolic and gene expression levels. Mice given no treatment or treated with bevacizumab, doxorubicin or the combination of these two drugs were sacrificed at day 3 or 10. High resolution magic angle spinning magnetic resonance spectroscopy (HR MAS MRS) and gene expression microarray analysis was performed on all tumor samples. Combination treatment with bevacizumab had the strongest growth inhibiting effect in the basal-like tumors, and this was reflected in a significant response in the metabolomic and transcriptomic profiles. In the luminal-like xenografts, addition of bevacizumab did not improve the effect of doxorubicin. On the global transcriptomic level, the largest changes in gene expression were observed for the most efficient treatment in each of the two xenograft models. The metabolite glycerophosphocholine (GPC) showed opposite response in the treated xenografts compared with untreated controls: lower in basal-like tumors and higher in luminal-like tumors. Lower levels of creatine, taurine and glycine were observed in the basal-like xenografts given bevacizumab as monotherapy compared with untreated xenografts. Comparing combination therapy with doxorubicin monotherapy in basal-like xenografts, 14 genes showed significant differential expression, including higher expression of very low density lipoprotein receptor (VLDLR), and lower expression of hemoglobin, theta 1 (HBQ1). Using published gene expression signatures, bevacizumab treated tumors were associated with a more hypoxic phenotype, while no evidence was found for associations between bevacizumab treatment and vascular invasion or increasing tumor grade. This study underlines the importance of characterizing biological differences between subtypes of breast cancer to identify personalized biomarkers for selecting patients for bevacizumab treatment and evaluating response to therapy.

This study underlines the importance of characterizing biological differences between subtypes of breast cancer to identify personalized biomarkers for selecting patients for bevacizumab treatment and evaluating response to therapy. 60 samples are analyzed. For each of the two xenograft models, tumors were collected from animals that were untreated or treated with bevacizumab (5 mg/kg), doxorubicin (8 mg/kg) or a combination of the two therapies (n = 6 tumors for each group). Bevacizumab treatment was repeated at day 4 and day 7. Animals were sacrificed and tissue harvested at either day 3 or 10 after treatment, in triplicates within each treatment group. This resulted in 24 tumor samples from each of the models. In addition, untreated and bevacizumab treated luminal-like xenografts not fed with estradiol were included for comparison (n = 12). Note that the untreated controls are overlapping with the samples in the GEO series with accession number: GSE25915.

Project description:Purpose: To study the potential priming benefit of bevacizumab from subsequent immunotherapy (durvalumab) in advanced breast cancer patients Methods: We tested this hypothesis by adding durvalumab after progression to maintenance single-agent bevacizumab treatment in advanced HER2-negative patients (average 3 treatment lines). In order to study the potential priming benefit, patients had to experience disease progression while on bevacizumab maintenance prior to entering the trial. In addition, we sought to find traits in peripheral-blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and tumor biopsies that informed about this immuno-priming, in an attempt to search for novel biomarkers of efficacy of the combo and obtain a better understanding of the biology of this clinical scenario. Results: Patients that experienced clinical benefit, compared with the remaining patients, displayed a lymphocyte pattern in PBMCs consisting on increased T-effector subpopulations (CD4- and CD8- effector and effector-memory) and decreased immunosuppressive T-regulatory cells. Gene-expression studies in tumor samples showed a congruent pattern, with increased T-effector and memory T cell signatures in responders, and increased T-regulatory and decreased active dendritic cells in non-responders. These events were observed in patients that displayed vascular normalization features as a result of previous bevacizumab, supporting the immuno-priming effects of this strategy.

Project description:The patients who underwent surgery for primary lesions were examined. All patients had metastatic or recurrent CRC and received bevacizumab therapy as first line or second line treatment. Responders and nonresponders were determined based on RECIST and confirmed by CT or MRI. Gene-expression profiles of primary CRC were determined using Human Genome GeneChip arrays U133. Colorectal cancer patients who had undergone surgical resection of colorectal cancer were studied. To identify molecular signatures to predict response to bevacizumab, gene expression profiles were compared between Reponder and Non-responder.
