Kinome profiling of HRAS Q61K mutant SMS-CTR rhabdomyosarcoma cell line treated with tipifarnib


ABSTRACT: Hyperactive RAS signaling drives tumorigenesis in PAX 3/7::FOXO1 fusion-negative rhabdomyosarcoma (FN-RMS). Despite the frequency of these mutations, RAS pathway-directed therapies have been ineffective for RAS-driven RMS. Farnesyltransferase (FTase) inhibitors (FTIs), such as tipifarnib, inhibit HRAS membrane localization and blunt HRAS effector signaling, leading to an antitumor effect in HRAS-mutant FN-RMS preclinical models. Response to FTI is limited by adaptive feedback reactivation of ERK signaling and upregulation of wild-type (WT) RAS. We found that the combination of HRAS suppression with FTI and MEK inhibition (MEKi) impaired ERK reactivation and reduced ERK transcriptional output in HRAS-mutant RMS models. Co-targeting FTase and MEK restrained tumor progression and induced terminal myogenic differentiation. These findings highlight an effective combinatorial strategy and support its preclinical translation for patients with HRAS-mutant RMS. Here, kinome profiling was performed on the SMS-CTR(HRAS Q61K) RMS cell line after 24 or 48 hour exposure to 100 nM tipifarnib.

Hyperactive RAS signaling, induced by mutations in NRAS, HRAS, or KRAS, drives tumorigenesis in most PAX3/7::FOXO1 fusion-negative rhabdomyosarcomas (FN-RMS). Despite the frequency of these mutations, indirect RAS pathway-directed therapies have been ineffective for RAS-driven RMS. Farnesyltransferase (FTase) inhibitors (FTIs), such as tipifarnib, inhibit HRAS membrane localization and blunt RAS effector signaling, leading to an antitumor effect in HRAS-mutant FN-RMS preclinical models.
