Project description:Ovarian cancers are still largely treated with platinum-based chemotherapy as the standard of care, yet few biomarkers of clinical response have had an impact on clinical decision making as of yet. Two particular challenges faced in mechanistically deciphering platinum responsiveness in ovarian cancer have been the suitability of cell line models for ovarian cancer subtypes and the availability of information on comparatively how sensitive ovarian cancer cell lines are to platinum. We performed one of the most comprehensive profiles to date on 36 ovarian cancer cell lines across over seven subtypes and integrated drug response and multiomic data to improve on our understanding of the best cell line models for platinum responsiveness in ovarian cancer. RNAseq analysis of the 36 cell lines in a single batch experiment largely conform with the currently accepted subtyping of ovarian cancers, further supporting other studies that demonstrate that commonly used cell lines are poor models of high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma. We performed drug dose response assays in the 32 of these cell lines for cisplatin and carboplatin, as previous studies have not comprehensively reported this quantity of cell lines and/or the actual IC50s for these drugs. Our results demonstrate that cell lines largely fall either well above or below the equivalent dose of the clinical maximally achievable dose (Cmax) of each compound, allowing designation of cell lines as sensitive or resistant. We performed differential expression analysis for high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma cell lines to identify gene expression correlating with platinum-response. Further, we generated two platinum-resistant derivatives each for OVCAR3 and OVCAR4, as well as leveraged clinically-resistant PEO1/PEO4/PEO6 and PEA1/PEA2 isogenic models to perform differential expression analysis for seven total isogenic pairs of platinum resistant cell lines. While gene expression changes overall were heterogeneous and vast, themes of innate immunity/STAT activation, epithelial to mesenchymal transition and stemness, and platinum influx/efflux regulators. In addition to gene expression analyses, we performed copy number signature analysis and orthogonal measures of HRD scar scores and copy number burden, which is the first report to our knowledge applying field-standard copy number signatures to ovarian cancer cell lines, which revealed unique features of some ovarian cancer models. We also examined markers and functional readouts of stemness that revealed that cell lines are poor models for examination of stemness feature contributions to platinum resistance, as this is likely a transient state. Overall this study serves as a resource to determine the best cell lines to utilize for ovarian cancer research on certain subtypes and platinum response studies, as well as sparks new hypotheses for future study in ovarian cancer.

Project description:Resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy is a clinical challenge in the treatment of ovarian cancer (OC) and limits survival. Therefore, innovative drugs against platinum-resistance are urgently needed. Our therapeutic concept is based on the conjugation of two chemotherapeutic compounds to a monotherapeutic pro-drug, which is taken up by cancer cells and cleaved into active cytostatic metabolites. Here, we explore the activity of the duplex-prodrug 5-FdU-ECyd, covalently linking 2'-deoxy-5-fluorouridine (5-FdU) and 3'-C-ethynylcytidine (ECyd), on platinum-resistant OC cells. RNA-Sequencing was used for characterization of 5-FdU-ECyd treated platinum-sensitive A2780 and isogenic platinum-resistant A2780cis.

Project description:Gene copy number changes, cancer stem cell (CSC) increases, and platinum chemotherapy resistance contribute to poor prognosis in patients with recurrent high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC). CSC phenotypes involving Wnt-b-catenin and aldehyde dehydrogenase activities, platinum resistance, and tumor initiating frequency are here associated with spontaneous genetic gains, including genes encoding KRAS, MYC and FAK, in a new murine model of ovarian cancer (KMF). Noncanonical FAK signaling was sufficient to sustain human and KMF tumorsphere proliferation, CSC survival, and platinum resistance. Increased FAK tyrosine phosphorylation occurred in HGSOC patient tumors surviving neo-adjuvant platinum and paclitaxel chemotherapy and platinum resistant tumorspheres acquired FAK dependence for growth. Importantly, combining a pharmacologic FAK inhibitor with platinum overcame chemoresistance and triggered apoptosis in vitro and in vivo. Knockout, rescue, genomic and transcriptomic analyses collectively identified more than 400 genes regulated along a FAK/b-catenin/Myc axis impacting stemness and DNA repair in HGSOC, with 66 genes gained in a majority of Cancer Genome Atlas samples. Together, these results support combinatorial testing of FAK inhibitors for the treatment of recurrent ovarian cancer.

Project description:Epigenetic changes, particularly DNA methylation aberrations have been implicated in acquired resistance to platinum in ovarian cancer. A multi-institutional randomized clinical trial compared a regimen of a DNA methyl transferase (DNMT) inhibitor guadecitabine and carboplatin to physician’s choice chemotherapy for patients with recurrent platinum resistant ovarian cancer. Tumor biopsies or malignant ascites were collected at day 1 of cycle 1 (pre-guadecitabine) and after two cycles of treatment (post-decitabine). The goal of the current study was to analyze guadecitabine-induced DNA methylation and gene expression changes and correlate pretreatment levels with clinical outcomes. Epigenomic and transcriptomic profiling using the Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip (HM450) and RNA sequencing revealed extensive methylation and gene expression changes induced by guadecitabine in ovarian tumors. Ninety-four gene promoters were significantly hypomethylated after treatment with guadecitabine and 949 genes were differentially expressed in pre vs. post-treatment tumors. Pathways associated with immune reactivation and DNA repair were significantly altered by guadecitabine treatment. Expression levels of 1155 genes involved in 25 networks on day 1 of cycle 1 correlated with progression free survival. Increased expression of selected genes (e.g. DOK2, miR193a) silenced through promoter methylation restored platinum sensitivity in ovarian cancer cells. Together, these results support that guadecitabine altered DNA methylation and expression of genes and gene networks correlate with re-sensitization to carboplatin in ovarian cancer patients.

Project description:Resistance to platinum compounds represents a major obstacle to the cure of ovarian carcinoma. The molecular profiling of drug-sensitive and drug-resistant cells may be helpful to clarify if altered expression of miRNAs can contribute to the drug-resistant phenotype. The expression pattern of miRNAs of three ovarian carcinoma cell lines was examined. The analysis revealed the modulation of several miRNAs in the two platinum-resistant cell lines as compared to parental platinum-sensitive cells. The integration of the information obtained through miRNA expression analysis may be useful to clarify the specific molecular alterations of factors and pathway favouring survival of tumor cells.
