Project description:Approximately 50% of melanomas harbor an activating BRAFV600E mutation. Standard of care involves a combination of inhibitors targeting mutant BRAF and MEK1/2, the substrate for BRAF in the MAPK pathway. PTEN loss of function mutations occur in 40% of BRAFV600E melanomas, resulting in increased PI3K/AKT activity that enhances resistance to BRAF/MEK combination inhibitor therapy. To compare the response of PTEN null to PTEN wild type cells in an isogenic background, CRISPR was used to knock out PTEN a melanoma cell line that harbors a BRAFV600E mutation. RNA sequencing and functional kinome analysis revealed the loss of PTEN led to an induction of FOXD3 and an increase in expression of the FOXD3 target gene, ERBB3/HER3. Inhibition of BRAF and MEK1/2 in PTEN null, BRAFV600Ecells dramatically induced expression of ERBB3/HER3 relative to wild type cells. A synergy screen of epigenetic modifiers and kinase inhibitors in combination with BRAFi/MEKi identified the pan ERBB/HER inhibitor, neratinib, as reversing the resistance observed in PTEN null, BRAFV600Ecells. The findings indicate that PTEN null BRAFV600E melanoma exhibits increased reliance on ERBB/HER signaling when treated with clinically approved BRAFi/MEKi combinations. Future studies are warranted to test neratinib reversal of resistance in patient melanomas expressing ERBB3/HER3 in combination with its dimerization partner ERBB2/HER2.

Project description:The A375, human BRAFV600E mutant melanoma, cell line (wildtype), two PTEN-null, BRAFV600E cell lines (KO5 and KO11), and PI3K overexpression cells (WT and PI3K H1047R mutant) were treated with small molecule inhibitors (dabrafenib, BRAF inhibitor; trametinib, MEK inhibitor alone and in combination for 0, 1 and 7 days

Project description:Dysregulated neutrophilic inflammation can be highly destructive in chronic inflammatory diseases due to prolonged neutrophil lifespan and continual release of histotoxic mediators in inflamed tissues. Inducing neutrophil apoptosis, an immunologically silent form of cell death, may be beneficial in these diseases, provided that the apoptotic neutrophils are efficiently cleared from the tissue. Our previous research identified ErbB inhibitors as able to induce neutrophil apoptosis and reduce neutrophilic inflammation both in vitro and in vivo (Rahman et al. 2019). Here we expand on that work using a clinical ErbB inhibitor, neratinib, which has the potential to be repurposed in inflammatory diseases. We show that neratinib reduces neutrophilic migration to an inflammatory site in zebrafish larvae. Neratinib upregulates efferocytosis and reduces the number of dead neutrophils in mouse models of acute, but not chronic, lung injury, suggesting the drug may have therapeutic benefits in acute inflammatory settings. Phosphoproteomics analysis of human neutrophils shows that neratinib modifies the phosphorylation of proteins regulating apoptosis, migration and efferocytosis. This work identifies a potential efficacious mechanism for neratinib in acute lung inflammation by upregulating the clearance of dead neutrophils, and examination of the neutrophil phosphoproteome gives insight into the mechanisms by which this may be occurring.

Project description:KRAS mutation is widely presumed to confer independence from upstream RTK signalling, however emerging evidence from mouse models of lung cancer suggests that ERBB RTKs may amplify signalling through RAS isoforms and participate in mutant RAS-driven lung cancer. This is one of 3 datasets where we examined the transcriptional impact of treatment of KRAS mutant human lung cancer cell lines with the multi-ERBB inhibitor Neratinib

Project description:Pan-HER TKI neratinib has demonstrated clinical activity in patients with HER2-mutant cancers. However responses are heterogenoeus and not generally prolonged, suggesting de-novo and acquired resistance to neratinib. To study mechanisms of resistance to neratinib we generated neratinib resistant cells by gradual dose escalation until resistance was achieved and performed various analyses including RNAseq.

Project description:The first clinical trial testing the combination of targeted therapy with a BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib and immunotherapy with a CTLA-4 antibody ipilimumab was terminated early due to significant liver toxicities, possibly due to paradoxical activation of the MAPK pathway by BRAF inhibitors in tumors with wild type BRAF. MEK inhibitors can potentiate the MAPK inhibition in tumor, while potentially alleviating the unwanted paradoxical MAPK activation. With a mouse model of syngeneic BRAFV600E driven melanoma (SM1), we tested whether the addition of the MEK inhibitor trametinib would enhance the immunosensitization effects of the BRAF inhibitor dabrafenib. Combination of dabrafenib and trametinib with pmel-1 adoptive cell transfer (ACT) showed complete tumor regression. Bioluminescent imaging and tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) phenotyping showed increased effector infiltration to tumors with dabrafenib, trametinib or dabrafenib plus trametinib with pmel-1 ACT combination. Intracellular IFN gamma staining of the TILs and in vivo cytotoxicity studies showed trametinib was not detrimental to the effector functions in vivo. Dabrafenib increased tumor associated macrophages and T regulatory cells (Tregs) in the tumors, which can be overcome by addition of trametinib. Microarray analysis revealed increased melanoma antigen, MHC expression, and global immune-related gene upregulation with the triple combination therapy. Given the up-regulation of PD-L1 seen with dabrafenib and/or trametinib combined with antigen specific ACT, we tested the triple combination of dabrafenib, trametinib with anti-PD1 therapy, and observed superior anti-tumor effect to SM1 tumors. Our findings support the testing of these combinations in patients with BRAFV600E mutant metastatic melanoma. SM1 tumors were implanted into C57BL/6 mice. Mice were treated by ACT of pmel-1 splenocytes or C57BL/6 splenocytes as control. Pmel-1 treated mice were additionally treated with either vehicle, dabrafenib, trametinib, or combination of both drugs and control mice were treated with vehicle or combination of both drugs.
