Comparative proteome and serum analysis identified FSCN1 as a marker of abiraterone resistance in castration-resistant prostate cancer

ABSTRACT: Background: Abiraterone (Abi) is an androgen receptor signaling inhibitor that significantly improves patients' life expectancy in metastatic prostate cancer (PCa). Despite its beneficial effects, many patients have baseline or acquired resistance against Abi. Objective: To identify predictive serum biomarkers for Abi treatment. Design, setting, and participants: We performed a comparative proteome analysis on three Abi sensitive (LNCaPabl, LAPC4, DuCaP) and resistant (LNCaPabl-Abi, LAPC4-Abi, DuCaP-Abi) PCa cell lines using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) technique. Two bioinformatic selection methods were applied to select the most promising candidate serum markers. Serum levels of selected proteins were assessed in samples of 100 Abi-treated patients with metastatic castration-resistant disease using ELISA. Moreover, FSCN1 serum concentrations were measured in samples of 69 Docetaxel (Doc) treated mCRPC patients. Outcome measurements and statistical analysis: Serum levels were correlated with patients‘ clinicopathological parameters and survival. Results and limitations: Our proteome analysis identified 68 significantly, at least two-fold upregulated proteins in Abi resistant cells. Using two filtering methods four proteins (AMACR, KLK2, FSCN1 and CTAG1A) were selected for ELISA analyses. We found high baseline FSCN1 serum levels to be significantly associated with poor survival in Abi-treated mCRPC patients. Moreover, the multivariable analysis revealed that higher ECOG status (>1) and high baseline FSCN1 serum levels (>10.22 ng/ml by ROC cut-off) were independently associated with worse survival in Abi-treated patients (p<0.001 and p=0.021, respectively). In contrast, no association was found between serum FSCN1 concentrations and overall survival in Doc-treated patients. Conclusions: Our analysis identified baseline FSCN1 serum levels to be independently associated with poor survival of Abi-treated, but not Doc-treated mCRPC patients, suggesting a therapy specific prognostic value for FSCN1. Patient summary: In this study, we identified serum FSCN1 as a marker that may help to predict PCa patients who derive less benefit from Abi but not Doc treatment.

Project description:The feasibility of longitudinal metastatic biopsies for gene expression profiling in breast cancer is unexplored. Dynamic changes in gene expression can potentially predict efficacy of targeted cancer drugs. Patients enrolled in a phase III trial of metastatic breast cancer with sunitinib combined with docetaxel (SU+DOC) versus docetaxel alone (DOC) were offered to participate in a translational substudy comprising longitudinal fine needle aspiration biopsies (FNAB) and positron emission imaging before (T1) and two weeks after start of treatment (T2). Aspirated tumor material was used for microarray analysis, and treatment-induced changes (T2 versus T1) in gene expression and standardized uptake values were investigated. Twenty-one patients were included in the docetaxel ± sunitinib trial at Karolinska and 18 of them agreed to participate in the substudy. Of the 18 women enrolled, 8 were randomly assigned to SU+DOC and 10 to DOC. Metastatic FNAB were carried out in 17 of the 18 patients at both time points with no complications reported. Representative tumor material, sufficient for RNA extraction was obtained in 15 patients at T1 and 14 patients at T2. Matched samples both at T1 and T2 were obtained for 14 subjects, 7 in each arm. The main objective was to determine whether gene expression profiling is feasible using sequential, intra-patient FNAB. Secondary objectives were to identify potential biomarkers of early response by gene expression and/or functional imaging and to explore drug action in vivo by changes in gene expression. A Karolinska substudy of the docetaxel ± sunitinib phase III clinical trial utilising sequential metastatic fine needle aspiration biopsies (FNAB) and 18-F-2-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG PET/CT). In brief, the randomized docetaxel ± sunitinib trial compared sunitinib combined with docetaxel (SU+DOC) versus docetaxel alone (DOC), as first line therapy in patients with HER2 negative metastatic breast cancer. Patients in the exploratory substudy were subjected to baseline FDG PET/CT assessment, followed by FNAB of one tumor lesion prior to start of treatment (Time point T1). FDG PET/CT and FNAB were repeated at Day 14 ± 1 (Time point T2) when sunitinib has achieved steady state.
