Project description:Purpose: Primary resistance to abiraterone acetate (AA), a key medication for the treatment of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, occurs in 20-40% of the patients. We aim to identify predictive biomarkers for AA-treatment response and understand the mechanisms related to treatment resistance. Experimental Design: We used the Infinium Human Methylation 450K BeadChip to monitor modification profiles of cell-free circulating DNA (cfDNA) in 108 plasma samples collected from 33 AA-treated patients. Results: Thirty cytosines showed significant modification differences (FDR q < 0.05) between the AA-sensitive and AA-resistant patients during the treatment, of which 21 cytosines were differentially modified prior to treatment. In addition, the AA-sensitive patients, but not AA-resistant patients, lost interindividual variation of cfDNA modification shortly after starting AA-treatment, but such variation returned to initial levels in the later phases of treatment. Conclusions: Our findings provide a list of potential biomarkers for prediction of AA-treatment response, highlight the prognostic value of using cytosine modification variance as biomarkers, and shed new insights into the mechanisms of prostate cancer relapse in AA-sensitive patients.

Project description:The goal of this study was to determine the effects of a well-characterized anti-androgen, abiraterone acetate, and a suspected human anti-androgen, di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP) on the androgenic function of human fetal testis. Human fetal testis was xenografted into the renal subcapsular space of castrated male athymic nude mice. Hosts were treated with hCG to stimulate testosterone production in the xenografts, and were concurrently treated with either abiraterone acetate or DBP. While abiraterone acetate (14 d, 75 mg/kg/d p.o.) dramatically reduced testosterone and the weights of androgen-sensitive host organs, DBP (14 d, 500 mg/kg/d p.o.) had no effect on androgenic endpoints. Three paired analyses were performed using the LIMMA package in R (commands lmfit and eBayes), with the Benjamini-Hochberg correction for multiple comparisons (Smyth 2005): vehicle-treated xenografts vs. unimplanted testis (n=5), abiraterone-treated xenografts vs. matched control xenografts (n=3), and DBP-treated xenografts vs. matched control xenografts (n=3). There were significant differences in gene expression between grafted and ungrafted samples, including dramatic upregulation of microRNAs. Gene expression analysis also showed that abiraterone decreased expression of genes related to cell differentiation, while DBP induced expression of oxidative stress response genes and decreased expression of factors related to embryonic development. 17 xenograft samples were analyzed, including 5 unimplanted samples, 6 vehicle treated xenografts, 3 abiraterone acetate-treated xenografts, and 3 DBP-treated xenografts. Samples were paired (derived from the same donor tissue) for each comparison: vehicle vs. unimplanted (n=5), abiraterone vs. vehicle (n=3), and DBP vs. vehicle (n=3).

Project description:Background. Androgen receptor splice variant-7 (AR-V7) is a truncated form of the androgen receptor protein which lacks the ligand-binding domain, the target of enzalutamide and abiraterone, but remains constitutively active as a transcription factor. We hypothesized that detection of AR-V7 in circulating tumor cells (CTCs) from men with advanced prostate cancer would be associated with resistance to enzalutamide and abiraterone. Methods. We used quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase-chain-reaction (qRT-PCR) to interrogate CTCs for the presence or absence of AR-V7 from prospectively enrolled patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer initiating treatment with either enzalutamide or abiraterone. We examined associations between AR-V7 status and PSA response rates, PSA-progression-free-survival (PSA-PFS), clinical/radiographic-progression-free-survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). Multivariable Cox regression analyses were performed to determine the independent effect of AR-V7 status on clinical outcomes. Results. Thirty-one enzalutamide-treated patients and thirty-one abiraterone-treated patients were enrolled, of which 38.7% and 19.4% had detectable AR-V7 from CTCs, respectively. Among men receiving enzalutamide, AR-V7–positive patients had inferior PSA response rates (0% vs 52.6%, P=0.004), PSA-PFS (median: 1.4 vs 6.0 months, P<0.001), PFS (median: 2.1 vs 6.1 months, P<0.001), and OS (median: 5.5 months vs not reached, P=0.002) compared to AR-V7–negative patients. Similarly, among men receiving abiraterone, AR-V7–positive patients had inferior PSA response rates (0% vs 68.0%, P=0.004), PSA-PFS (median: 1.3 months vs not reached, P<0.001), PFS (median: 2.3 months vs not reached, P<0.001), and OS (median: 10.6 months vs not reached, P=0.006). The negative prognostic impact of AR-V7 was maintained after adjusting for full-length-AR expression. Conclusions. Detection of AR-V7 in CTCs from patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer is associated with resistance to enzalutamide and abiraterone. A total of four metastatic castration-resistant prostate tumor samples from four patients were subjected to RNA-seq. Two samples were positive for androgen receptor splice variant 7 and the other two were negative for this variant.

Project description:There are many treatment options available for men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Yet, biomarkers predictive of differential response to treatment are currently available. A recent translational study suggested that SLCO2B1 genotype could predict response to abiraterone acetate (AA) for men with advanced prostate cancer. Here, we investigate whether germline variants in SLCO2B1 are predictive of response to first-line AA in men with new mCRPC. Clinical data and samples were analyzed from a prospective prostate cancer registry at the University of Utah. Genotyping was performed using the Illumina OmniExpress genotyping platform. Primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) on first-line AA in men with mCRPC. We performed a pre-specified multivariate Cox regression analysis to assess the independent predictive value of rs12422149 and rs1789693 on PFS on AA. Of 401 men with advanced prostate cancer genotyped, 323 were homozygous wild type for rs12422149 (80.5%), 74 were heterozygous (18.5%), and 4 were homozygous variant (1.0%). In a multivariate analysis of 79 men treated with first-line AA for mCRPC, men heterozygous for rs12422149 had significantly improved median PFS compared to the homozygous wild-type group (8.9 months vs. 6.3 months, HR 0.46, 95% CI 0.23-0.94, p=0.03). No significant difference in median PFS was seen by rs1789693 genotype. In this first clinical validation of translational data reported by Mostaghel and colleagues, germline variant alleles in rs12422149 of SLCO2B1 are common and predict improved response to first-line AA In men with mCRPC.
