    Abstract: Purpose: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common cancers worldwide. In China, chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains the major risk factor for HCC. In this study, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) among Chinese populations to identify novel genetic loci contributing to susceptibility to HBV-related HCC. Experimental Design: GWAS scan is performed in a collection of 205 HBV-related HCC trios (each trio includes an affected proband and his/her both parents), and 355 chronic HBV carriers with HCC (cases) and 360 chronic HBV carriers without HCC (controls), followed by two rounds of replication studies totally consisting of 3,796 cases and 2,544 controls. Results: We identified a novel association signal within the CDK14 gene at 7q21.13 (index rs10272859, OR = 1.28, P = 9.46 × 10−10). Furthermore, we observed that the at-risk rs10272859[G] allele was significantly associated with higher mRNA expression levels of CDK14 in liver tissues. Chromosome conformation capture assays in liver cells confirmed that a physical interaction exists between the promoter region of CDK14 and the risk-associated SNPs in strong linkage disequilibrium with the index rs10272859 at 7q21.13. This index rs10272859 also showed significant association with the survival of HCC patients. Conclusions: Our findings highlight a novel locus at 7q21.13 conferring both susceptibility and prognosis to HBV-related HCC, and suggest the CDK14 gene to be the functional target of the 7q21.13 locus.

    Abstract: There is no research evidence demonstrate which is the better partner strategy, endocrine therapy or chemotherapy, to combine with anti-HER2 therapy as the first-line management of hormone receptor (HR)-positive (HR+) and HER2-positive (HER2+) metastatic breast cancer (MBC). We wished to ascertain if trastuzumab plus endocrine therapy is noninferior to trastuzumab plus chemotherapy. Patients and Methods: We conducted an open-label, noninferiority, phase III, randomized, controlled trial (NCT01950182) at nine hospitals in China. Participants, stratified by previous adjuvant endocrine therapy and disease status (recurrent disease vs. de novo metastasis), were assigned randomly (1:1) to receive trastuzumab plus endocrine therapy (per investigator's choice of oestrogen-receptor modulators or aromatase inhibitor, with/without concurrent ovarian suppression) or chemotherapy (per investigator's choice of taxanes, capecitabine, or vinorelbine). The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) with a noninferiority upper margin of 1.35 for the HR. The intention-to-treat population was used in primary and safety analyses. Results: A total of 392 patients were enrolled and assigned randomly to receive trastuzumab plus endocrine therapy (ET group, n = 196) or trastuzumab plus chemotherapy (CT group, n = 196). After a median follow-up of 30.2 months [interquartile range (IQR) 15.0–44.7], the median PFS was 19.2 months [95% confidence interval (CI), 16.7–21.7)] in the ET group and 14.8 months (12.8–16.8) in the CT group (hazard ratio, 0.88; 95% CI, 0.71–1.09; Pnoninferiority & lt; 0.0001). A significantly higher prevalence of toxicity was observed in the CT group compared with the ET group. Conclusions: Trastuzumab plus endocrine therapy was noninferior to trastuzumab plus chemotherapy in patients with HR+HER2+ MBC.

    Abstract: Non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. There is an unmet need to develop novel clinically relevant models of NSCLC to accelerate identification of drug targets and our understanding of the disease. Experimental Design: Thirty surgically resected NSCLC primary patient tissue and 35 previously established patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models were processed for organoid culture establishment. Organoids were histologically and molecularly characterized by cytology and histology, exome sequencing, and RNA-sequencing analysis. Tumorigenicity was assessed through subcutaneous injection of organoids in NOD/SCID mice. Organoids were subjected to drug testing using EGFR, FGFR, and MEK-targeted therapies. Results: We have identified cell culture conditions favoring the establishment of short-term and long-term expansion of NSCLC organoids derived from primary lung patient and PDX tumor tissue. The NSCLC organoids recapitulated the histology of the patient and PDX tumor. They also retained tumorigenicity, as evidenced by cytologic features of malignancy, xenograft formation, preservation of mutations, copy number aberrations, and gene expression profiles between the organoid and matched parental tumor tissue by whole-exome and RNA sequencing. NSCLC organoid models also preserved the sensitivity of the matched parental tumor to targeted therapeutics, and could be used to validate or discover biomarker–drug combinations. Conclusions: Our panel of NSCLC organoids closely recapitulates the genomics and biology of patient tumors, and is a potential platform for drug testing and biomarker validation.

    Overexpression of RCC2 Enhances Cell Motility and Promotes Tumor Metastasis in Lung Adenocarcinoma by Inducing Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition
    American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) ; 2017

    Abstract: Purpose: Investigate the role of regulator of chromosome condensation 2 (RCC2) on lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) metastasis. Experimental Design: Clinical specimens were used to assess the impact of RCC2 on LUAD metastasis. Mouse models, cytobiology, and molecular biology assays were performed to elucidate the function and underlying mechanisms of RCC2 in LUAD. Results: RCC2 expression was frequently increased in LUADs (88/122, 72.13%). It was confirmed by analysis of a larger cohort of TCGA RNA-seq data containing 488 LUADs and 58 normal lung tissues (P & lt; 0.001). Importantly, increased level of RCC2 was significantly associated with T status of tumor (P = 0.002), lymph node metastasis (P = 0.004), and advanced clinical stage (P = 0.001). Patients with LUAD with higher expression of RCC2 had shorter overall survival. Cox regression analysis demonstrated that RCC2 was an independent poorer prognostic factor for patients with LUAD. Moreover, forced expression of RCC2 promoted intrapulmonary metastasis in vivo and significantly enhanced LUAD cell migration, invasion, and proliferation in vitro. Further study found that RCC2 induced epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) and also stimulated the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9. In addition, RCC2 was able to activate JNK, while inhibition of JNK suppressed the effect of RCC2 on LUAD cell migration, invasion, EMT, and the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9. Conclusions: RCC2 plays a pivotal role in LUAD metastasis by inducing EMT via activation of MAPK–JNK signaling. Clin Cancer Res; 23(18); 5598–610. ©2017 AACR.

    In: Clinical Cancer Research, American Association for Cancer Research (AACR), Vol. 17, No. 1 ( 2011-01-01), p. 174-182
    Abstract: Purpose: To establish feasibility, maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and potential efficacy of ablative dose total marrow irradiation (TMI) delivered by helical tomotherapy in patients with multiple myeloma (MM). Experimental Design: Patients with responding or stable MM received tandem autologous stem cell transplants, first with melphalan 200 mg/m2, and 60 days or later with TMI. TMI doses were to be escalated from 1,000 cGy by increments of 200 cGy. All patients received thalidomide and dexamethasone maintenance. Results: Twenty-two of 25 enrolled patients (79%) received tandem autologous stem cell transplantation (TASCT): TMI was administered at a median of 63.5 days (44–119) after melphalan. Dose-limiting toxicities at level 5 (1,800 cGy) included reversible grade 3 pneumonitis, congestive heart failure, and enteritis (1), and grade 3 hypotension (1). The estimated median radiation dose to normal organs was 11% to 81% of the prescribed marrow dose. Late toxicities included reversible enteritis (1), and lower extremity deep venous thrombosis during maintenance therapy (2). The complete and very good partial response rates were 55% and 27% following TASCT and maintenance therapy. At a median of 35 months of follow-up (21–50+ months), progression-free and overall survival for all patients were 49% (95% CI, 0.27–0.71) and 82% (0.67–1.00). Conclusion: Ablative dose TMI as part of TASCT is feasible, and the complete response rate is encouraging. Careful monitoring of late toxicities is needed. Further assessment of this modality is justified at the 1,600 cGy MTD level in MM patients who are candidates for ASCT. Clin Cancer Res; 17(1); 174–82. ©2010 AACR.

    Abstract: Efforts are required to improve the potency and durability of CD38- and BCMA-based immunotherapies in human multiple myeloma. We here delineated the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying novel immunomodulatory effects triggered by BCMA pyrrolobenzodiazepine (PBD) antibody drug conjugate (ADC) MEDI2228 which can augment efficacy of these immunotherapies. Experimental Design: MEDI2228-induced transcriptional and protein changes were investigated to define significantly impacted genes and signaling cascades in multiple myeloma cells. Mechanisms whereby MEDI2228 combination therapies can enhance cytotoxicity or overcome drug resistance in multiple myeloma cell lines and patient multiple myeloma cells were defined using in vitro models of tumor in the bone marrow (BM) microenvironment, as well as in human natural killer (NK)-reconstituted NOD/SCID gamma (NSG) mice bearing MM1S tumors. Results: MEDI2228 enriched IFN I signaling and enhanced expression of IFN-stimulated genes in multiple myeloma cell lines following the induction of DNA damage–ATM/ATR-CHK1/2 pathways. It activated cGAS-STING-TBK1-IRF3 and STAT1-IRF1–signaling cascades and increased CD38 expression in multiple myeloma cells but did not increase CD38 expression in BCMA-negative NK effector cells. It overcame CD38 downregulation on multiple myeloma cells triggered by IL6 and patient BM stromal cell-culture supernatant via activation of STAT1-IRF1, even in immunomodulatory drug (IMiD)- and bortezomib-resistant multiple myeloma cells. In vitro and in vivo upregulation of NKG2D ligands and CD38 in MEDI2228-treated multiple myeloma cells was further associated with synergistic daratumumab (Dara) CD38 MoAb-triggered NK-mediated cytotoxicity of both cell lines and autologous drug-resistant patient multiple myeloma cells. Conclusions: These results provide the basis for clinical evaluation of combination MEDI2228 with Dara to further improve patient outcome in multiple myeloma.

    Abstract: Our primary purpose is to explore safety and efficacy of high-dose icotinib in comparison with routine-dose icotinib in patients with non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring 21-L858R mutation. Patients and Methods: Patients with treatment-naïve, EGFR-mutant (21-L858R or exon 19 deletion at 2:1) NSCLC were enrolled. Patients with 21-L858R mutation were randomized to receive routine-dose icotinib (125 mg, thrice daily; L858R-RD) or high-dose icotinib (250 mg, thrice daily; L858R-HD), whereas patients with exon 19 deletion received only routine-dose icotinib (19-Del-RD) until progression, death, or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint was median progression-free survival (mPFS), assessed by an independent review committee. Results: From May 2015 to November 2017, 253 patients (86 in L858R-RD; 90 in L858R-HD; and 77 in 19-Del-RD) were enrolled. The mPFS in L858R-HD group was similar to that in 19-Del-RD group (12.9 months and 12.5 months, respectively) and was significantly longer than that in L858R-RD group [12.9 months vs. 9.2 months, hazard ratio (HR): 0.75; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.53–1.05]. A longer but statistically nonsignificant mPFS was observed between 19-Del-RD and L858R-RD groups (12.5 months vs. 9.2 months, HR: 0.80; 95% CI, 0.57–1.13). A higher objective response rate (ORR) was observed in L858R-HD group compared with L858R-RD group (73% vs. 48%), also between 19-Del-RD and L858R-RD groups (75% vs. 48%). Similar incidences of grade 3/4 toxicities were observed among the three treatment groups. Conclusions: High-dose icotinib improved mPFS and ORR in patients with NSCLC harboring 21-L858R mutation with acceptable tolerability, which could be a new therapeutic option for this patient population.

    Abstract: Purpose: Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase kinase 4 (MAP4K4) is overexpressed in many types of cancer. Herein, we aimed to investigate its expression pattern, clinical significance, and biological function in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Experimental Design: MAP4K4 expression was examined in 20 fresh HCCs and corresponding nontumor liver tissues. Immunohistochemistry for MAP4K4 was performed on additional 400 HCCs, of which 305 (76%) were positive for hepatitis B surface antigens. The clinical significance of MAP4K4 expression was analyzed. MAP4K4 downregulation was performed in HCC cell lines HepG2 and Hep3B with high abundance of MAP4K4, and the effects of MAP4K4 silencing on cell proliferation in vitro and tumor growth in vivo were evaluated. Quantitative real-time PCR arrays were employed to identify the MAP4K4-regulated signaling pathways. Results: MAP4K4 was aberrantly overexpressed in HCCs relative to adjacent nontumor liver tissues. This overexpression was significantly associated with larger tumor size, increased histologic grade, advanced tumor stage, and intrahepatic metastasis, as well as worse overall survival and higher early recurrence rate. Knockdown of the MAP4K4 expression reduced cell proliferation, blocked cell cycle at S phase, and increased apoptosis. The antitumor effects of MAP4K4 silencing were also observed in vivo, manifested as retarded tumor xenograft growth. Furthermore, multiple tumor progression–related signaling pathways including JNK, NFκB, and toll-like receptors were repressed by MAP4K4 downregulation. Conclusions: MAP4K4 overexpression is an independent predictor of poor prognosis of HCC patients, and inhibition of its expression might be of therapeutic significance.

    Pilot Trial Evaluating an 123I-Labeled 80-Kilodalton Engineered Anticarcinoembryonic Antigen Antibody Fragment (cT84.66 Minibody) in Patients with Colorectal Cancer
    American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) ; 2004

    In: Clinical Cancer Research, American Association for Cancer Research (AACR), Vol. 10, No. 15 ( 2004-08-01), p. 5014-5021
    Abstract: Purpose: The chimeric T84.66 (cT84.66) minibody is a novel engineered antibody construct (VL-linker-VH-CH3; 80 kDa) that demonstrates bivalent and high affinity (4 × 1010 m−1) binding to carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). The variable regions (VL and VH) assemble to form the antigen-combining sites, and the protein forms dimers through self-association of the CH3 domains. In animal models, the minibody demonstrated high tumor uptake, approaching that of some intact antibodies, substantially faster clearance than intact chimeric T84.66, and superior tumor-to-blood ratios compared with the cT84.66 F(ab′)2 fragment, making it attractive for further evaluation as an imaging and therapy agent. The purpose of this pilot clinical study was to determine whether 123I-cT84.66 minibody demonstrated tumor targeting and was well tolerated as well as to begin to evaluate its biodistribution, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity in patients with colorectal cancer. Experimental Design: Ten patients with biopsy-proven colorectal cancer (6 newly diagnosed, 1 pelvic recurrence, 3 limited metastatic disease) were entered on this study. Each received 5–10 mCi (1 mg) of 123I-labeled minibody i.v. followed by serial nuclear scans and blood and urine sampling over the next 48–72 h. Surgery was performed immediately after the last nuclear scan. Results: Tumor imaging was observed with 123I-labeled minibody in seven of the eight patients who did not receive neoadjuvant therapy before surgery. Two patients received neoadjuvant radiation and chemotherapy, which significantly reduced tumor size before surgery and minibody infusion. At surgery, no tumor was detected in one patient and only a 2-mm focus was seen in the second patient. 123I-labeled minibody tumor targeting was not seen in either of these pretreated patients. Mean serum residence time of the minibody was 29.8 h (range, 10.9–65.4 h). No drug-related adverse reactions were observed. All 10 patients were evaluated for immune responses to the minibody, with no significant responses observed. Conclusion: This pilot study represents one of the first clinical efforts to evaluate an engineered intermediate-molecular-mass radiolabeled antibody construct directed against CEA. cT84.66 minibody demonstrates tumor targeting to colorectal cancer and a faster clearance in comparison with intact antibodies, making it appropriate for further evaluation as an imaging and therapy agent. The mean residence time of the minibody in patients is longer than predicted from murine models. We therefore plan to further evaluate its biodistribution and pharmacokinetic properties with minibody labeled with a longer-lived radionuclide, such as 111In.

    Abstract: Osteosarcoma, the primary malignant tumor of bone, is the most frequent primary non-hematologic malignancy in children and adolescents. Despite the advances in surgery and multiagent chemotherapy, the survival rate of osteosarcoma has not improved as much as for other malignancies, with 5-year survival of 60-65% for localized osteosarcoma and far worse for metastatic disease. Osteosarcoma is also the second leading cause of cancer-related death in children and adolescents. Therefore, identifying novel driver genes involved in osteosarcoma initiation, development, and progression is of great translational importance for osteosarcoma detection, prevention and treatment. Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) is an autosomal dominant disease caused by germline mutations in p53 gene, which predispose individuals to a wide range of malignancies, especially osteosarcoma; thus it provides an ideal model system to study this malignancy. Utilizing induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) established from LFS patients, our group successfully recapitulated tumorigenic characteristics of osteosarcoma by differentiating LFS iPSC-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to osteoblasts. This first human LFS disease model holds great potential in identifying and characterizing novel driver genes during osteosarcoma development. In this study, we plan to extend our previous findings by applying deep sequencing and trackable Sleeping Beauty forward genetic screen to identify cancer drivers that contribute to LFS osteosarcomagenesis. Succinctly, whole-genome sequencing will be performed in LFS samples with different tumorigenic potential (MSCs, osteoblasts, osteoblasts grown in soft agar and in nude mice), followed by systematic analyses of whole-genome alterations during this process. We will also model clonal evolution in LFS osteosarcoma utilizing deep sequencing results acquired from different stages of LFS osteosarcoma. We expect to sequentially determine genomic driver events and define clonal architecture during LFS-associated osteosarcoma development. On the other hand, a cancer forward genetic screening will be performed by transducing hybrid viral-transposon system (Lentihop) into LFS iPSC-derived MSCs, followed by differentiation into osteoblasts. These differentiated osteoblasts will be inoculated into immune-deficient mice to allow de novo tumor development. The developed tumors will be used to identify gain-of-function and loss-of-function common insertion sites. By either knocking down or ectopic expressing the cancer drivers, the role of these identified cancer drivers in osteosarcomagenesis will be further evaluated. Combination of deep sequencing and forward genetic screen in LFS iPSCs-based osteosarcoma model should provide a systematic characterization of genome alterations and clonal evolutions during osteosarcomagenesis and will allow us to identify potential candidate genes for treatment and/or prevention of osteosarcoma in LFS patients.
