Project description:Ewing sarcoma is a highly aggressive solid malignancy affecting children and young adults. Ewing sarcoma is driven primarily by EWSR1::FLI1, a fusion oncoprotein that has been notoriously difficult to target with traditional pharmacologic agents. There are numerous examples of promising preclinical combinations of small molecules that are never tested in pediatric clinical trials because agents fail to reach the market due to limited efficacy for common adult cancers. Moreover, the effectiveness of single-agent therapies for cancer treatment is often limited. To address these limitations, we selected 28 compounds that were FDA approved at the time of the study or in late stages of clinical development and known to regulate important pathways in Ewing sarcoma. We performed a drug screen in Ewing sarcoma cell lines with 180 combinations of tyrosine kinase inhibitors, cell cycle inhibitors, and conventional chemotherapy. The results of the screen revealed that a PI3K inhibitor, copanlisib, combined with a CDK4/6 inhibitor, ribociclib, exhibited strong synergistic anti-Ewing sarcoma activity. Using proteomic methods such as a reverse-phase protein array and western immunoblotting, we demonstrated that this combination induced a downregulation of the PI3K/AKT pathway as well as proteins involved in cell cycle regulation. We further confirmed these in vitro data using bulk RNA-sequencing. To evaluate the phenotypic effect of the PI3K/CDK4/6 inhibition in Ewing sarcoma lines, we performed apoptosis and cell cycle analyses using flow cytometry and demonstrated that ribociclib primarily induced a G0/G1 arrest with minimal effect on Ewing cell viability but significantly enhanced the apoptotic effect of copanlisib treatment. In two xenograft models of Ewing sarcoma, we demonstrated that the combination significantly prolonged survival compared to treatment with either vehicle or single-agent therapy alone. Our findings identify a new candidate therapy combination for Ewing sarcoma and provide a resource of additional potential synergistic combinations for future validation.

Project description:Ewing sarcoma is an aggressive cancer most commonly diagnosed in adolescents and young adults. Various mechanisms of TGFβ inhibition are being tested in clinical trials for patients with relapsed Ewing sarcoma. However, the functional impact of TGFβ inhibition on the Ewing tumor microenvironment remains largely unstudied given the historical lack of immunocompetent preclinical models of Ewing sarcoma. Here, we use single cell RNAseq analysis of human Ewing tumors to demonstrate that immune cells are the largest source of TGFβ production in the human Ewing tumor microenvironment. We develop and utilize a humanized mouse model of Ewing sarcoma to study the effect of TGFβ inhibition on the Ewing tumor immune microenvironment both at baseline and during radiation therapy, a treatment that enhances TGFβ activation and is often used to treat patients with aggressive Ewing sarcoma. Finally, we utilize a bivalent ligand TGFβ TRAP and demonstrate that, in combination with radiation, TGFβ inhibition both increases immune cell infiltration in Ewing tumors and decreases lung metastatic burden.

Project description:The clinical efficacy of EGFR kinase inhibitors gefitinib and erlotinib is limited by the development of drug resistance. The most common mechanism of drug resistance is the secondary EGFR T790M mutation. Strategies to overcome EGFR T790M mediated drug resistance include the use of mutant selective EGFR inhibitors, including WZ4002, or by the use of high concentrations of irreversible quinazoline EGFR inhibitors such as PF299804. In the current study we develop drug resistant versions of the EGFR mutant PC9 cell line which reproducibly develops EGFR T790M as a mechanism of drug resistance to gefitinib. Neither PF299804 resistant (PFR) or WZ4002 resistant (WZR) clones of PC9 harbor EGFR T790M. Instead, they demonstrate activated IGF1R signaling as a result of loss of expression of IGFBP3 and the IGF1R inhibitor, BMS 536924, restores EGFR inhibitor sensitivity. Intriguingly, prolonged exposure to either PF299804 or WZ4002 results in the emergence of a more drug resistant subclone which contains ERK activation. A MEK inhibitor, CI-1040, partially restores sensitivity to EGFR/IGF1R inhibitor combination. Moreover, an IGF1R or MEK inhibitor used in combination with either PF299804 or WZ4002 completely prevents the emergence of drug resistant clones in this model system. Our studies suggest that more effective means of inhibiting EGFR T790M will prevent the emergence of this common drug resistance mechanism in EGFR mutant NSCLC. However, multiple drug resistance mechanisms can still emerge. Preventing the emergence of drug resistance, by targeting pathways activated in resistant cancers before they emerge, may be a more effective clinical strategy. Total of three samples with duplicate or triplicate each were analyzed.

Project description:Background: Ewing sarcoma, a highly aggressive tumor of children and young adults, is characterized most commonly by an 11;22 chromosomal translocation that fuses EWSR1 located at 22q12 with FLI1, coding for a member of the ETS family of transcription factors. Although genetic changes in Ewing sarcoma have been extensively researched, our understanding of the role of epigenetic modifications in this neoplasm is limited. Procedure: In an effort to improve our knowledge in the role of epigenetic changes in Ewing sarcoma we evaluated the in vitro antineoplastic effect of the DNA methyltransferase inhibitor 5-Aza-deoxycytidine (5-Aza-dC) and identified epigenetically silenced genes by pharmacologic unmasking of DNA methylation coupled with genome-wide expression profiling.

Project description:We treated liver cancer cells with vehicle, CDK4/6 inhibitor, XPO1 inhibitor and the combination. Then, RNA sequencing was conducted to quantify the mRNA expression level of vehicle-treated or CDK4/6 inhibitor, XPO1 inhibitor and the combination treated liver cancer cells. CDK4/6 inhibitor, XPO1 inhibitor and the combination induced expression changes were obtained based on the processed data.

Project description:We show that EWS-FLI1, an aberrant transcription factor responsible for the pathogenesis of Ewing sarcoma, reprograms gene regulatory circuits by directly inducing or directly repressing enhancers. At GGAA repeats, which lack regulatory potential in other cell types and are not evolutionarily conserved, EWS- FLI1 multimers potently induce chromatin opening, recruit p300 and WDR5, and create de novo enhancers. GGAA repeat enhancers can loop to physically interact with target promoters, as demonstrated by chromosome conformation capture assays. Conversely, EWS-FLI1 inactivates conserved enhancers containing canonical ETS motifs by displacing wild-type ETS transcription factors and abrogating p300 recruitment. ChIP-seq for of 4 histone modifications (H3K27ac, H3K4me1, H3K4me3 and H3K27me3), FLI1, p300, WDR5, ELF1 and GABPA in primary Ewing sarcomas, Ewing sarcoma cell lines (A673 and SKMNC cells), and mesenchymal stem cells (MSC). EWS-FLI1 was knocked down in Ewing sarcoma cell lines with lentiviral shRNAs (shFLI1 and shGFP control). EWS-FLI1 was expressed in MSCs with lentiviral expression vectors (pLIV EWSFLI1 or pLIV empty vector control). * Raw data not provided for the MSC and Primary Ewing sarcoma samples. *

Project description:Ewing sarcoma is characterized by pathognomonic translocations fusing most frequently EWSR1 with FLI1 (EF1). In addition, Ewing sarcoma can also display alterations in STAG2, TP53 and CDKN2A (SPC). Starting from Ewing sarcoma derived human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCpat), we recapitulated this translocation and SPC alterations using a CRISPR/cas9 approach and generated a bona fide Ewing sarcoma model (EWIma1) displaying transcriptomic and epigenetic hallmarks of EwS.
