Project description:The non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell line HCC827 harbors an activating EGFR mutation (exon 19 deletion) that confers sensitivity to the FDA-approved EGFR inhibitor erlotinib. By applying the ClonTracer barcoding system, we were able to show the presence of pre-existing sub-populations in HCC827 that contribute to erlotinib resistance. Prior studies implicated that MET amplification confers resistance to erlotinib in this cell line. Therefore we examined the effects of the c-Met inhibitor crizotinib on the barcoded HCC827 population when treated either sequentially or simultaneously with both inhibitors. Despite the significant reduction in barcode complexity, the erlotinib/crizotinib combination treatment failed to eradicate all of the resistant clones implying the presence of an erlotinib/crizotinib dual resistant subpopulation. We performed transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) to elucidate the potential resistance mechanisms of the dual resistant subpopulation in comparison to vehicle-treated or single agent erlotinib-resistant HCC827 cell populations as controls. mRNA profiling of the subpopulations of human NSCLC cell line HCC827 that contribute to EGFR inhibitor erlotinib and MET inhibitor crizotinib resistance

Project description:Targeted therapies have provided advantages to cancer patients, but these therapies are limited by differential responses and developed resistance. To discover mechanisms of resistance, we developed drug-resistant cell lines and have their gene expressions profiled and compared. HCC827 cells, which were initially sensitive to Erlotinib treatment, are subjected to Erlotinib treatment. Two clonal populations that resistant to Erlotinib resulted.

Project description:The receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) EGFR is overexpressed and mutated in NSCLC. These mutations can be targeted by RTK inhibitors (TKIs), such as erlotinib. Chromatin-modifying agents offer a novel therapy approach by sensitizing tumor cells to TKIs. The NSCLC cell lines HCC827 (EGFR mutant, adenocarcinoma), A549 (EGFR wt, adenocarcinoma) and NCI-H460 (EGFR wt, large cell carcinoma) were analyzed by SNP6.0 array. Changes in proliferation were quantified by WST-1 assay, apoptosis by Annexin V/7-AAD flow cytometry and histone marks (acH3, H3K4me1,-2,-3) by immunoblotting. Expectedly, the EGFR wt cell lines A549 and NCI-H460 were insensitive to the growth-inhibiting effect of single-agent erlotinib (IC50 70-100µM), compared to HCC827 (IC50 <0.02μM). Treatment with panobinostat diminished growth to <50% in both EGFR wt and <30% in HCC827 cells. The combination of both drugs significantly reduced proliferation by ≥70% in A549, >95% in HCC827, but not further in NCI-H460. Panobinostat alone induced differentiation and expression of p21WAF1/CIP1 and p53 in all three cell lines, with almost no further increase when combined with erlotinib. In contrast, combination treatment additively decreased pERK, pAKT and pEGFR in A549, and synergistically induced acH3 in both adenocarcinoma lines. Surprisingly, we also saw an induction of H3K4 methylation marks in all three cell lines. In conclusion, panobinostat synergistically sensitized lung adenocarcinoma cells to the antiproliferative effects of erlotinib. Since single-agent erlotinib has only modest clinical effects in adenocarcinoma EGFR wt patients, combination therapy with an HDACi might offer a promising therapy approach to extend this activity. Copy-number analysis of three NSCLC cell lines HCC827, A549 and NCI-H460 (in unicates) was performed according to protocol by Affymetrix Genome-Wide Human SNP-Array 6.0.

Project description:Background: The receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) EGFR is overexpressed and mutated in NSCLC. These mutations can be targeted by RTK inhibitors (TKIs) such as erlotinib. Chromatin-modifying agents may offer a novel therapeutic approach by sensitizing tumor cells to TKIs. Methods: The NSCLC cell lines HCC827 (EGFR mutant, adenocarcinoma), A549 (EGFR wt, adenocarcinoma) andNCI-H460 (EGFR wt, large cell carcinoma) were analyzed by SNP6.0 array. Changes in proliferation after panobinostat (LBH-589, PS) and erlotinib treatment were quantified by WST-1 assay and apoptosis by Annexin V/7-AAD flow cytometry. Abundance of target proteins and histone marks (acH3, H3K4me1/2/3) was determined by immunoblotting. Results: As expected, the EGFR wt cell lines A549 and NCI-H460 were quite insensitive to the growth-inhibitory effect of single-agent erlotinib (IC50 70-100 μM), compared to HCC827 (IC50 < 0.02 μM). PS treatment diminished growth to <50 % in both EGFR wt cells, and <30 % in HCC827. The combination of both drugs reduced proliferation by >95 % in HCC827, ≥70 % in A549, but not further in NCI-H460. PS alone induced differentiation and expression of p21WAF1/CIP1 and p53 and decreased CHK1 in all three cell lines, with almost no further effect when combined with erlotinib. In contrast, combination treatment additively decreased pEGFR, pERK, pAKT in A549, and synergistically induced acH3 in both adenocarcinoma lines. Surprisingly, we saw an induction of H3K4 methylation marks after erlotinib treatment in HCC827 (and to a lesser extent in A549) that was even further enhanced by combination with PS. Conclusion: We were able to show that PS synergistically sensitized lung adenocarcinoma cells to the antiproliferative effects of erlotinib. Since single-agent erlotinib has only modest clinical effects in lung adenocarcinoma EGFR wt patients, its combination with an HDACi might offer a promising therapy approach.

Project description:The goal of this study was to compare the transcriptome (RNA-seq) of EGFR TKI sensitive NSCLC cells with that of cells with acquired resistance to erlotinib. HCC827 and HCC4006 cells were continuously cultured in erlotinib until erlotinib resistant (ER) variants emerged. All ER variants were negative for T790M. RNA from parental and ER cells was isolated for transcriptomic profiling. RNA-seq analysis reveals that EGFR TKI resistance is associated with a mesenchymal gene expression signature.

Project description:Despite the role of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) development and progression, clinical trials involving EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have yielded poor results in HNSCC patients. Mechanisms of acquired resistance to the EGFR TKI erlotinib was investigated by developing erlotinib-resistant HNSCC cell lines (Cal-27, SCC-25, FaDu, and SQ20B) and comparing their gene expression profiles with their parental erlotinib-sensitive HNSCC cell lines using microarray analyses. Subsequent pathway and network analyses displayed a significant upregulation in immune response pathways. Role of immune/inflammatory signaling in acquired resistance to erlotinib in HNSCC was investigated.

Project description:Despite initial and often dramatic responses of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-addicted lung tumors to the EGFR-specific tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), gefitinib and erlotinib, nearly all develop resistance and relapse. To explore novel mechanisms mediating acquired resistance, we employed non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines bearing activating mutations in EGFR and rendered them resistant to EGFR-specific TKIs through chronic adaptation in tissue culture. In addition to previously observed resistance mechanisms including EGFR-T790M 'gate-keeper' mutations and MET amplification, a subset of the seven chronically adapted NSCLC cell lines including HCC4006, HCC2279 and H1650 cells exhibited marked induction of fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 2 and FGF receptor 1 (FGFR1) mRNA and protein. Also, adaptation to EGFR-specific TKIs was accompanied by an epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) as assessed by changes in CDH1, VIM, ZEB1 and ZEB2 expression and altered growth properties in Matrigel. In adapted cell lines exhibiting increased FGF2 and FGFR1 expression, measures of growth and signaling, but not EMT, were blocked by FGFR-specific TKIs, an FGF-ligand trap and FGFR1 silencing with RNAi. In parental HCC4006 cells, cell growth was strongly inhibited by gefitinib, although drug-resistant clones progress within 10 days. Combined treatment with gefitinib and AZD4547, an FGFR-specific TKI, prevented the outgrowth of drug-resistant clones. Thus, induction of FGF2 and FGFR1 following chronic adaptation to EGFR-specific TKIs provides a novel autocrine receptor tyrosine kinase-driven bypass pathway in a subset of lung cancer cell lines that are initially sensitive to EGFR-specific TKIs. The findings support FGFR-specific TKIs as potentially valuable additions to existing targeted therapeutic strategies with EGFR-specific TKIs to prevent or delay acquired resistance in EGFR-driven NSCLC.

Project description:Introduction: The clinical benefit of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with activating EGFR mutations is temporary, as virtually all patients develop acquired EGFR TKI resistance that occurs via diverse mechanisms. Here, we identified increased FGFR1 expression as such a resistance mechanism and using pathways analysis and drug combination testing we identified a novel combination treatment to control growth of these resistant tumors. Methods: Novel erlotinib-resistant NSCLC cell lines were generated and analyzed by mass spectrometry-based proteomics to identify altered pathways associated with erlotinib resistance. The altered pathways were further analyzed in gefitinib and osibenib resistant cell lines. Small molecule inhibitor combinations were used to block the altered pathways and investigate growth reduction in vitro and in two xenograft mouse models. FGFR1 mRNA levels were examined in pre- and (post?)- EGFR TKI treatment clinical tumor samples. Results: Proteomic analysis revealed increased expression of FGFR1 and AXL as well as increased Akt and ERK1/2 activation in a panel of novel erlotinib-resistant HCC827 cell lines. Combined treatment with erlotinib or osimertinib and a panel of small molecule inhibitors targeting AXL/MET, FGFRs, Akt, PI3K/mTOR, MEK or ERK1/2 showed that the most prominent re-sensitization to EGFR TKI occurred with the pan-FGFR inhibitor, PD173074. Interestingly, simultaneous blockade of components of the Akt pathway using specific Akt or dual PI3K-mTOR inhibitors combined with inhibitors targeting the FGFR family exhibited the most efficient growth inhibition of FGFR1 overexpressing EGFR TKI-resistant cell lines. Phosphorylation of proteins downstream of Akt, including PRAS40, FOXO and S6 ribosomal protein, were completely abrogated by PD173074 combined with the Akt inhibitor GSK2141795 . Combination treatment with PD173074 and an Akt inhibitor exhibited synergistic growth inhibition in vivo in two FGFR1 overexpressing NSCLC EGFR TKI-resistant animal models. Conclusion: The significant growth inhibition in vitro and in vivo observed with PD173074 combined with Akt compared to either drug alone imply that inhibition of several key targets may be beneficial in controlling erlotinib-resistant NSCLC. The complete abrogation of PRAS40, FOXO and S6 phosphorylations by PD173074 combined with an Akt inhibitor indicates that the Akt pathway is no longer active.

Project description:The non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) HCC827 cell line is an established preclinical model for tyrosine kinase inhibitors. To be able to better understand the differences in response between individual cells, we performed treatment of HCC827 cells grown in cell culture with erlotinib followed by Drop-seq. We were able to clearly distinguish cells that were treated with the drug from untreated cells, and we discovered different cell populations within the treated cells, likely reflecting heterogeneity of drug resistant cells. We were able to identify specific biomarkers, as preferentially expressed genes, for each cell population. The results of our study will address preexisting and acquired drug resistance that limits clinical usefulness of targeted strategies, particularly in NSCLC.
