Gene expression data from head and neck cancer patient derived xenografts

ABSTRACT: Head and neck cancer is a hetergeneous disease. Based on previoulsy defined molecular subtypes we associated gene expression with response to different compounds. We used microarry gene expression for molecular subtyping Cetuximab is the single targeted therapy approved for the treatment of head and neck cancer (SCCHN). Predictive biomarkers have not been established in the clinical setting and patient stratification based on molecular tumor profiles has not been possible. Since EGFR pathway activation is pronounced in basal subtype, we hypothesized this activation could be a predictive signature for an EGFR directed treatment. From our patient derived xenograft platform of head and neck cancer, 28 models were subjected to Affymetrix gene expression studies on HG U133+ 2.0. Based on the expression of 821 genes, the subtype of each of the 28 models was determined by integrating gene expression profiles through centroid-clustering with previously published gene expression data by Keck et al.,CCR 2015. Response was evaluated by comparing tumor volume at treatment initiation and after three weeks of treatment (RTV).

Tumor Growth and Prognosis of Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck is Linked to Protein Kinase C Alpha

Project description:Protein Kinase C alpha (PKC) is a critical mediator of cell signaling and cancer growth. We show that PKC inhibitors decrease proliferation in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) cells and abrogate growth of SCCHN tumors in mouse xenografts. Analysis of gene expression arrays reveals that PKC regulates cell cycle genes required for DNA synthesis. In particular, PKC increases cyclin E protein expression, cyclinE/cdk2 complex formation, and transcription of cyclin E and E2F target genes. Consistent with this mechanism, expression of cyclin E rescues the block in DNA synthesis caused by PKC inhibition. In SCCHN tissue, PKC and cyclin E expression increase progressively from normal and dysplastic to malignant human head and neck tissue. Furthermore, PKC expression correlates with poor prognosis in SCCHN. These results demonstrate that PKC regulates growth by stimulating DNA synthesis through cyclin E and E2F and identify PKC as a therapeutic target that is highly expressed in aggressive SCCHN. Keywords: time course; dose response

Gene expression associated with panitumumab efficacy in squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck

Project description:Platinum-based chemotherapy plus cetuximab, an anti-Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) monoclonal antibody (Mab), is usually offered to recurrent/metastatic (R/M) head-neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients, with only a small portion experiencing durable responses. The anti-EGFR-Mab panitumumab, was used as single agent in platinum pre-treated R/M-HNSCC patients in a phase II trial (PANI01). By analyzing gene expression profiles of a selected retrospective series of HNSCC patients treated with cetuximab, an anti-Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) monoclonal antibody (MAb), associated to chemotherapy, we were able to propose that long progression-free survival (PFS) cases consistently belong to defined molecular subtypes, such as Cluster3-hypoxia and Basal subtypes, respectively defined by De Cecco et al [DeCecco; Oncotarget, 2015] and Keck et al [Keck; CCR,2015], while short-PFS cases are characterized by an over-activation of RAS signaling

Gene expression profiling after cetuximab treatment of HNSCC tumors

Project description:To investigate if cetuximab induces epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) and activation of cancer associated fibroblast (CAF) in the tumors of patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN). Cetuximab was administered for two weeks prior to surgery to 20 treatment-naïve patients (CHIRON study). Five untreated patients were included as controls. Tumor biopsies were performed at baseline and before surgery. Gene expression profiles and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis of the pre-and post-treatment biopsies were compared. To further investigate EMT and CAF, correlations between previously described EMT and CAF markers and our microarray data set were calculated.

Regulation of epidermal growth factor receptor signaling and erlotinib sensitivity in head and neck cancer cells by miR-7

Project description:Elevated expression and activity of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)/protein kinase B (Akt) signaling pathway is associated with development, progression and treatment resistance of head and neck cancer (HNC). Several studies have demonstrated that microRNA-7 (miR-7) regulates EGFR expression and Akt activity in a range of cancer cell types via its specific interaction with the EGFR mRNA 3′ untranslated region (3′-UTR). In the present study, we found that miR-7 regulated EGFR expression and Akt activity in HNC cell lines, and that this was associated with reduced growth in vitro and in vivo of cells (HN5) that were sensitive to the EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) erlotinib (Tarceva). miR-7 acted synergistically with erlotinib to inhibit growth of erlotinib-resistant FaDu cells, an effect associated with increased inhibition of Akt activity. Microarray analysis of HN5 and FaDu cell lines transfected with miR-7 identified a common set of downregulated miR-7 target genes, providing insight into the tumor suppressor function of miR-7. Furthermore, we identified several target miR-7 mRNAs with a putative role in the sensitization of FaDu cells to erlotinib. Together, these data support the coordinate regulation of Akt signaling by miR-7 in HNC cells and suggest the therapeutic potential of miR-7 alone or in combination with EGFR TKIs in this disease. Differential gene expression in head and neck cancer cell lines HN5 and FaDu under conditions of 24 h miR-NC (negative control) vs. miR-7 treatment.

Integrative genomic analysis identifies clinically relevant subtypes of head and neck cancer characterized by hypoxia, T-cell infiltration, and EMT

Project description:Current classification of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) based on anatomic site and clinical stage fails to capture biologic heterogeneity or adequately inform treatment. Here we use consensus clustering on 371 HNSCC in three cohorts, including a new cohort of 134 patients with locoregionally advanced HNSCC and 43% HPV(+) tumors to identify five HNSCC subtypes. Subtypes closely correlate with biologic processes (hypoxia, cytotoxic T-cell infiltration, copy number changes, EGFR/HER-ligand phenotype), survival, and HPV-status. Two biologically distinct HPV-associated subtypes are identified. Gene modules of candidate drivers characterize each subtype using the CONEXIC algorithm. The proposed 5-subtype classification provides a biologic basis for future clinical and preclinical studies and lays the groundwork for improved prognostication and therapy development in HNSCC. We use consensus clustering on 371 HNSCC in three cohorts, including a new cohort of 134 patients with locoregionally advanced HNSCC and 43% HPV(+) tumors to identify five HNSCC subtypes.

An Inducible TGF-Î²2-TGFÎ²R Pathway Modulates the Sensitivity of HNSCC Cells to Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors Targeting Dominant Receptor Tyrosine Kinases

Project description:The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is overexpressed in approximately 90% of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC), and molecularly targeted therapy against the EGFR with the monoclonal antibody cetuximab modestly increases overall survival in head and neck cancer patients. We hypothesize that co-signaling through additional pathways limits the efficacy of cetuximab and EGFR-specific tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in the clinical treatment of HNSCC. Analysis of gene expression changes in HNSCC cell lines treated 4 days with TKIs targeting EGFR and/or fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFRs) identified transforming growth factor beta 2 (TGF-Î²2) induction in the three cell lines tested. Measurement of TGF-Î²2 mRNA validated this observation and extended it to additional cell lines. Moreover, TGF-Î²2 mRNA was increased in primary patient HNSCC xenografts treated for 4 weeks with cetuximab, demonstrating in vivo relevance of these findings. Functional genomics analyses with shRNA libraries identified TGF-Î²2 and TGF-Î² receptors (TGFÎ²Rs) as synthetic lethal genes in the context of TKI treatment. Further, direct RNAi-mediated silencing of TGF-Î²2 inhibited cell growth, both alone and in combination with TKIs. Also, a pharmacological TGFÎ²RI inhibitor similarly inhibited basal growth and enhanced TKI efficacy. In summary, the studies support a TGF-Î²2-TGFÎ²R pathway as a TKI-inducible growth pathway in HNSCC that limits efficacy of EGFR-specific inhibitors. HNSCC cell lines treated 4 days with TKIs targeting EGFR and/or fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFRs) identified transforming growth factor beta 2 (TGF-Î²2) induction in the three cell lines tested
