    Abstract: Leucin-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) plays an important role in the onset of sporadic as well as familial Parkinson’s disease. Pathogenic gain-of-function mutations of LRRK2 are associated with aberrant LRRK2 hyperactivity which results in neurotoxicity and protein aggregation caused by dysfunctional autophagy and vesicle trafficking. Thus, the development of LRRK2 inhibitors represents a promising strategy for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease. Interestingly LRRK2 mutations have also been reported to increase the risk for the onset of different types of cancer (e.g. breast, thyroid, lung). Several studies suggest that LRRK2 is involved in the regulation of different cancer-related pathways (e.g. ATM-p53-p21-pathway, JNK pathway). Deregulation of LRRK2 activity caused by mutations has been shown to interfere with these pathways thereby increasing the risk to develop certain types of cancer. Since anti-cancer treatments mostly target the same pathways, we hypothesized that LRRK2 inhibitors may affect anti-cancer treatments in specific cancer cell types. In this study we report on the analyses of various inhibitors (e.g. MLi-2 and PF-06447475) on LRRK2 autophosphorylation at S935 in a cellular phosphorylation assay using the non-small cell lung cancer cell line A549 in comparison to biochemical LRRK2 activity assays. Furthermore, we compare the direct LRRK2 inhibitor effect on the proliferation of 140 cell lines, as well as their potential combinatorial impact on the potency of chemotherapeutic agents (e.g. Adriamycin). The observed effects can help to understand the implications of pharmaceutical LRRK2 inhibition in the treatment of both Parkinson’s disease and cancer.

    Abstract: Adavosertib (AZD1775, MK-1775), a clinical stage inhibitor of the tyrosine kinase WEE1, was investigated in a cell proliferation and survival assay with 140 human cancer cell lines (CLs) representing all major tumor types (ProLiFiler platform of Reaction Biology) followed by mechanism of action (MoA) and biomarker analyses using 4HF Biotec’s Cancer Data Miner in silico platform. Adavosertib exhibited a broad anti-cancer activity across all hematological and solid tumor types with IC50 values ranging from 0.06 to 10 µM (median: 0.38 µM), matching the consistently high expression of the WEE1 gene. Among 900 reference compounds, the activity profile of adavosertib correlated best with the profiles of compounds targeting the replication stress response including other WEE1 inhibitors but also inhibitors of checkpoint kinase 1 and 2 (CHK1/2) or ataxia telangiectasia-mutated (ATM). Significant correlations were also seen with compounds blocking mitosis, DNA replication and DNA repair. Interestingly, we observed a subset of cell lines that were resistant to both DNA synthesis and PARP inhibitors but were sensitive to WEE1 inhibition. Moreover, by using multiple datasets of WEE1 inhibitors connected to the molecular annotations of CLs for a data driven biomarker screening, we identified MYC mutations as a predictive marker of sensitivity and PIK3CA or ERBB2 gene amplifications as predictors of resistance. Transcriptome analysis identified up to 900 genes for which higher expression in CLs was associated with CL sensitivity to the compound. Preliminary pathway analysis indicated that these genes are well represented among nuclear factor and Myc-regulated genes. In conclusion, our studies demonstrate broad anticancer activity of adavosertib and confirm its proposed MoA. The biomarkers we identified will facilitate the selection of pre-clinical in vivo tumor models and, if confirmed, even patient selection for clinical trials. The combined use of the ProLiFiler and Cancer Data Miner Platforms has the potential to accelerate and de-risk the development of anti-cancer agents.

    Abstract: Introduction: LIM kinases 1/2 are downstream effectors of signalization pathways implicated in cytoskeleton dynamics via phosphorylation of Cofilin family proteins,matrix degradation and in activity control of Aurora kinase A. Recently, Rho kinases (ROCK) were identified to be constitutively activated by FLT3-ITD, BCR-ABL and KIT in hematologic malignancies via PI3 kinase and Rho GTPase mediated phosphorylation. Upon its activation by upstream kinases (ROCK and PAK) LIMK1/2 inactivates Cofilin by phosphorylation, leading to enhanced polymerization of Actin. Here we investigated the potential therapeutic role of LIMK1/2 inhibition in FLT3-ITD mutated AML. Materials and methods: Expression of LIMK1/2 was determined by RQ-PCR and WB. A small molecule inhibitor of LIMK1/2 (LIMKi) was tested alone or in combination with FLT3 inhibitors Midostaurin, Quizartinib and Crenolanib or the hypomethylating agent Azacitidine in FLT3-ITD driven AML cell lines MOLM-13 and MV-4-11. Cell viability and IC50 was assessed by MTT assays. In combination experiments, compounds were added simultaneously and relative cell numbers were determined at 72h with MTT assays and combination index (CI) was calculated with the Chow and Talalay model. Cell-cycle distribution was determined by cytofluorometric analysis detecting nuclear propidium iodide (PI) intercalation. Apoptosis was evaluated in cell lines and patient cells by outer Annexin V exposure and PI incorporation.Cells from healthy donors were obtained after informed consent and enriched for CD34+ cells by immunomagnetic selection and seeded in methylcellulose, FCS and cytokines with or without LIMKi. For in vivo experiments we used a bone marrow engraftment tumor model with MOLM13-LUC cells using bioluminescence imaging in NOD-SCID mice treated either with LIMKi, Midostaurin or LIMKi+Midostaurin. Results:Expression of LIMK1/2 in MOLM-13 and MV-4-11 cells could be detected by QT-PCR and at the protein level.IC50 after LIMKi exposure was 440 nM in MOLM-13 cells and 420 nM in MV-4-11 cells. Combination experiments with the LIMKi and either the FLT3 inhibitors Midostaurin, Quizartinib, Crenolanib or the hypmethylating agent Azacitidine were synergistic for treatment of MOLM-13 cells. Exposure of MOLM-13 cells to increasing doses of LIMKi induced cell cycle arrest in the G1/S transition and dose dependent apoptosis. No significant toxicity of increasing doses of LIMKi after exposure of CD34+ cells from healthy donors could be detected. In NOD-SCID mice engrafted with MOLM13-LUC cells Midostaurin and LIMKi delayed MOLM13 engraftment as detected by in vivo bioluminescence imaging and LIMKi+Midostaurin prolonged significantly survival of mice as compared to Midostaurin alone. Conclusion: LIMK1/2 inhibition seems to be promising in combination with various FLT3 inhibitors or Azacitidine in vitro as well as in vivo with Midostaurin.

    Abstract: Drug-conjugates are an emerging class of anticancer agents combining the cytotoxic activity of highly potent chemotherapeutic agents with the target specificity of an antibody, a small molecule or a peptide ligand directed against a cancer-associated protein. With nearly half a century of development, profound advancements have been made in the development of these therapeutics. The most advanced are antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) with currently & gt;100 in development and 11 approved by the FDA. To facilitate preclinical evaluation of novel drug conjugates, Reaction Biology and 4HF Biotec have developed a dedicated platform allowing specific in vitro and in silico analyses for this class of therapeutics. The platform is intended to provide information on the potency of the drug conjugate over the corresponding stand-alone cytotoxin, the cancer entities to be treated, the target engagement and the determinant(s) of cancer cell sensitivity. Here, we present our platform to refine antitumor potential of Sacituzumab govitecan (ScG), a recently approved TROP-2 targeted ADC used for the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer. First, we used the ProLiFiler™ (Reaction Biology), a cell proliferation and survival assay with 140 human cancer cell lines, to establish the antitumor profile of ScG, its payload SN-38 and three other cytotoxins (camptothecin, MMAE and mertansine) to validate the results of our assay. The IC50 obtained for the cytotoxins were next validated using the MoAFinder (4HF Biotec), a tool derived from the NIH COMPARE algorithm that ranks drugs based on the similarity of their growth inhibitory profiles. The analysis confirmed that SN-38 and camptothecin antitumor profiles, as established with the ProLiFiler, correlated best with other topoisomerase-1 inhibitors from our database of more than 1,000 compounds. Mertansine and MMAE correlated best with tubulin inhibitors and were more potent than camptothecin and SN-38. Overall, the response to these cytotoxins was stronger in cell lines from hyperproliferative cancers such as hematological malignancies than in those from solid cancers. Next, by using OMICS data (internal and publicly available), qPCR and flow cytometry connected to drug sensitivity profiles, we will present a differential biomarker screen of ScG vs. SN-38 to identify molecular determinants of sensitivity toward the ADC and its cytotoxin. We will address the expression level of TROP2 and its predictivity for tumor cell sensitivity, screen for predictors of SN-38 response and investigate possible off-target effects in cell lines sensitive to ScG but lacking TROP2 expression. Overall, the study demonstrates the potential of our platform to investigate drug conjugates. The comparative profiling of ScG and its payload allows to identify candidate cancer entities for ScG treatment and to improve patient enrollment into clinical trials using biomarkers.

    Abstract: Testing novel anti-cancer agents across large panel of tumor models covering genetic diversity of cancers is increasingly considered as a cornerstone of preclinical development. For this purpose, Reaction Biology developed “ProLiFiler” a standard panel of 140 cell lines (CLs) covering most common cancer types to evaluate anti-proliferative activity of novel drugs. Partnering has been made with 4HF Biotec and their in-silico platform, named “Cancer Data Miner”, to investigate and to understand molecular basis of drug sensitivity. Here we report the use of our platforms to realize integrative pharmacogenomic studies for three recent small molecules targeting major altered pathways in cancers. It includes SOS1::KRAS interaction inhibitor BI-3406, MDM2 inhibitor Nutlin-3a, and PI3K inhibitor Taselisib. Main goal of the study is to provide meaningful information for these three drugs regarding their efficacy and potency, the validation of their mechanism of actions (MOA), the suitable clinical indications, possible drug combinations and the predictive biomarkers of sensitivity or resistance. The three compounds are tested for anti-proliferative activity in vitro in a 2D monolayer assay using the “ProLiFiler”CLs panel. For data analytics, the resulting in vitro data are loaded on the “Cancer Data Miner” platform and connected to CL annotations including whole exome mutations, chromosomal aberrations, gene expression profiles or drug sensitivity profiles. The drug response profiles will be reported for the three compounds individually and compare between them, showing respective efficacy, potency, and CL/cancer entity selectivity. Using the MOA Finder tool, we will correlate BI-3406, Nutlin-3a, and Taselisib individual IC50 profiles to those of more than 800 compounds with known MOA that are integrated on the platform. The analyses will show the drugs most closely related to the 3 compounds and that are expected to have similar MOA. With the biomarker discovery tools, we will run high throughput statistical analyses to reveal whole exome mutations, copy number variations and expression significantly associated with drug sensitivity/resistance. For interpretation, pathway and enrichment analysis will be presented. A focus will be made on key alterations like KRAS and MAPK related genes, TP53-MDM2 and PIK3CA-PTEN to evaluate their predictivity. The work will be also completed by functional analysis, for instance, by assessing the effect of BI-3406 on ERK-MEK activation, and the impact of MDM2 inhibition on apoptotic markers. The present work will show the whole panel of analyses proposed by 140 CL-ProLiFiler and Cancer Data Miner complementary platforms, allowing to acquire key information at an early stage of drug development and helping to setup next steps such as selection of models for in vivo testing.

    Abstract: The neutrophil agonist neutrophil-activating peptide-2 (NAP-2) arises through proteolytic processing of platelet-derived N-terminally extended inactive precursors, the most abundant one being connective tissue-activating peptide-III (CTAP-III). Apart from N-terminal processing, C-terminal processing also appears to participate in the functional regulation of NAP-2, as indicated by our recent identification of an isoform missing four C-terminal amino acids, NAP-2 (1–66), which was about threefold more potent than full-size NAP-2. In the present study, we report on the discovery and identification of natural NAP-2 (1–63), an isoform truncated by seven C-terminal residues. Functional and receptor-binding analyses demonstrated that NAP-2 (1–63) represents the most active isoform, being about fivefold more potent than full-size NAP-2. Analyses of rNAP-2 isoforms successively truncated at the C terminus by up to eight residues suggest functionally important roles for acidic residues and for the leucine at position 63, a residue highly conserved within CXC chemokines. Finally, we report on a novel C-terminally truncated isoform of CTAP-III (CTAP-III (1–81)) representing the potential precursor of NAP-2 (1–66). We show that C-terminal truncation in CTAP-III enhances its potency to desensitize chemokine-induced neutrophil activation, indicating that C-terminal processing might not only serve to enhance neutrophil activation, but might as well participate in the down-regulation of an inflammatory response.

    Abstract: Chemokines are recognized as functionally important in many pathological disorders, which has led to increased interest in mechanisms related to the regulation of chemokine receptor (CKR) expression. Known mechanisms for regulating CKR activity are changes in gene expression or posttranslational modifications. However, little is known about CKR with respect to a third regulatory mechanism, which is observed among other seven-transmembrane receptor subfamilies, the concept of differential splicing or processing of heteronuclear RNA. We now report on the discovery of a variant human CKR, CXCR3, resulting from alternative splicing via exon skipping. The observed RNA processing entails a drastically altered C-terminal protein sequence with a predicted four- or five-transmembrane domain structure, differing from all known functional CKR. However, our data indicate that that this splice variant, which we termed CXCR3-alt, despite its severe structural changes still localizes to the cell surface and mediates functional activity of CXCL11.
