    Abstract: To evaluate sitravatinib, an inhibitor of multiple receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK), for the treatment of well-differentiated/dedifferentiated liposarcoma (WD/DD LPS). Patients and Methods: This multicenter, open-label, Phase II trial enrolled patients with advanced WD/DD LPS who had received at least one prior systemic regimen and had progression within 12 weeks of enrollment. Patients received sitravatinib 150 mg (later amended to 120 mg) orally daily. A Simon two-stage design was used to evaluate for an improvement in the primary endpoint, progression-free rate at 12 weeks (PFR12), from 20% to 40%. Secondary endpoints included antitumor activity and safety. A subset of patients underwent paired biopsies analyzed using reverse-phase protein array. Results: Twenty-nine patients enrolled. Median age was 62 years and 31% had received 3 or more prior lines. Most patients (93%) had DDLPS or mixed WD/DD LPS. Overall, 12 of 29 patients (41%) were alive and progression-free at 12 weeks and the study met the primary endpoint. There were no confirmed responses. Median progression-free survival was 11.7 weeks [95% confidence interval (CI): 5.9–35.9] and median overall survival was 31.7 weeks (95% CI: 18.1–90.1). The most common treatment-related adverse events were diarrhea (59%), hypertension (52%), hoarseness (41%), mucositis (31%), and nausea (31%). Baseline expression of phosph o-RTKs was not significantly different between patients with and without clinical benefit from sitravatinib, but the number of samples was small. Conclusions: Sitravatinib provided a PFR12 of 41% and meaningful disease control in a subset of patients with advanced, progressive WD/DD LPS.

    Are nicotinic acetylcholine receptors coupled to G proteins?
    Wiley ; 2013

    In: BioEssays, Wiley, Vol. 35, No. 12 ( 2013-12), p. 1025-1034
    Abstract: It was, until recently, accepted that the two classes of acetylcholine (ACh) receptors are distinct in an important sense: muscarinic ACh receptors signal via heterotrimeric GTP binding proteins (G proteins), whereas nicotinic ACh receptors (nAChRs) open to allow flux of Na + , Ca 2+ , and K + ions into the cell after activation. Here we present evidence of direct coupling between G proteins and nAChRs in neurons. Based on proteomic, biophysical, and functional evidence, we hypothesize that binding to G proteins modulates the activity and signaling of nAChRs in cells. It is important to note that while this hypothesis is new for the nAChR, it is consistent with known interactions between G proteins and structurally related ligand‐gated ion channels. Therefore, it underscores an evolutionarily conserved metabotropic mechanism of G protein signaling via nAChR channels. Also watch the Video Abstract .

    Abstract: e16299 Background: Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is associated with poor survival and low response rates to available therapies, warranting a critical need for new treatment paradigms. Enrichment of tumor epithelium via laser microdissection (LMD) prior to reverse phase protein array (RPPA) analysis allows for the quantitative measurement and functional assessment of the activation state of protein drug targets. As part of an IRB-approved Molecular Tumor Board study at Inova Schar Cancer Institute, we harvested enriched tumor epithelium using LMD to support CLIA-based RPPA analysis of patients with pancreatic, breast, and other solid tumor malignancies to examine quantitative expression and activation (phosphorylation) of HER-2/3 and other known cancer-related pathways. Methods: Formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) primary and/or metastatic tumor biopsy specimens were obtained from 14 patients with PDAC, 14 patients with breast cancer, and 40 patients with other solid tumor malignancies. Tumor epithelium (5-10 µm 2 ) was enriched via LMD prior to RPPA analysis for quantification of HER-2 Total and phosphorylated (p)HER-2 Y1248 and (p)HER-3 Y1289 abundances as part of a 32-marker, CLIA-based RPPA panel examining the total and phosphoprotein abundances of targets with known relevance in solid tumors. Next generation sequencing (NGS; DNA-seq and RNA-seq) was performed on remaining tissue from each specimen. Fisher’s Exact test was used to compare activated HER2 Total , pHER2 Y1248 and pHER3 Y1289 . Results: RPPA analysis of LMD enriched tumor samples revealed significant HER-2 Total expression in patients with PDAC vs other solid tumors (p=0.0112), with HER-2 Total levels comparable to those measured in patients with breast cancer (p=0.0962). The mean HER-2 Total abundances in PDAC, breast, and all other solid tumor malignancies were 1.6, 1.3, and 0.9, respectively. Activated pHER-2 Y1248 and pHER-3 Y1289 abundances did not differ between patients with PDAC vs all other solid tumors or between patients with PDAC vs breast cancer (p 〉 0.05). RNA-seq analysis revealed ERBB2 overexpression in four of the 14 PDAC patients, while ERBB2 amplification by DNA-seq was not observed in any of the PDAC cases. Conclusions: HER-2 expression is not routinely evaluated in clinical practice in PDAC, but our results show higher median expression in PDAC than our solid tumor cohort, with nearly 50% of PDAC cases having total HER2 expression of 2+ or above. Our results may have clinical implications, especially as new classes of HER2 antibody drug conjugates are considered for patients with HER2 non amplified tumors across organ sites, and justify further investigation in a larger cohort.

    Abstract: e15150 Background: Targeted cancer therapies almost exclusively disrupt protein function and phosphorylation, but genomics-based biomarkers underpin the vast majority of oncology molecular profiling. The reverse phase protein array (RPPA) technology has been used in the clinical setting to identify potential drug targets and to monitor the effects of treatment on protein expression and phosphorylation. Here, we investigated the Theralink RPPA assay, a highly sensitive CAP/CLIA accredited protein/phosphoprotein profiling technology, across a pan-tumor cohort of 188 samples which had undergone whole exome sequencing and transcriptomics. Methods: Using the Theralink RPPA assay, 32 key protein and phosphoprotein cancer therapy targets were quantified from formalin-fixed, laser capture microdissected (LCM) tumor epithelium across a pan-tumor cohort of 188 cancer cases. All samples had concomitant CLIA-based whole exome and whole transcriptome analysis performed. Most of these tumors were head and neck cancer (34%), uterine cancer (23%), and ovarian/fallopian tube cancer (17%), with the remaining 26% made up of various cancer types, including skin, breast, lung, brain, and other cancers. Results: Of the pan-tumor cohort, 95% of cases had at least one actionable protein target identified, compared to 86% of cases with clinically relevant genomic alterations. Altered genes and Theralink RPPA assay protein targets were broadly classified into 10 biological pathways. The pathway most frequently identified as actionable via Theralink’s RPPA assay was HER-family protein signaling (85% of cases) with concurrent genomic alterations in HER-family genes found for 9% of cases. In contrast, mTOR signaling was found to be the most frequent clinically relevant genomically altered pathway (48% of cases). When using a clinical breast cancer reference for HER2 protein/phosphorylation levels that is guiding HER2-targeted therapy in the unamplified setting, actionable total and phospho-HER2 levels were found in 82% of the pan-tumor cases, overlapping with ERBB2 genomic alterations in 4% of cases. The gene found to be altered the most was TP53 (101 cases; 54%), which was not part of the targeted Theralink RPPA assay. Conclusions: Our data suggest that quantification of key cancer proteins and phosphoproteins using RPPA extend the identification of actionable drug targets beyond what was found with WES/WTS testing alone. Especially the quantification of total and phospho-HER2 identified a significant pan-tumor subpopulation that may benefit from HER2-targeted therapies, including trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-Dxd).

    Abstract: Metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States, with a 5-year survival rate of only 11%, necessitating identification of novel treatment paradigms. Tumor tissue specimens from patients with PDAC, breast cancer, and other solid tumor malignancies were collected and tumor cells were enriched using laser microdissection (LMD). Reverse phase protein array (RPPA) analysis was performed on enriched tumor cell lysates to quantify a 32-protein/phosphoprotein biomarker panel comprising known anticancer drug targets and/or cancer-related total and phosphorylated proteins, including HER2 Total , HER2 Y1248 , and HER3 Y1289 . RPPA analysis revealed significant levels of HER2 Total in PDAC patients at abundances comparable to HER2-positive (IHC 3+) and HER2-low (IHC 1+ /2+ , FISH−) breast cancer tissues, for which HER2 screening is routinely performed. These data support a critical unmet need for routine clinical evaluation of HER2 expression in PDAC patients and examination of the utility of HER2-directed antibody–drug conjugates in these patients.

    Abstract 1057: Significant efficacy demonstrated with the combination of ulixertinib (ERK1/2 inhibitor) and CDK4/6 inhibitors in MAPK altered models

    Abstract: Ulixertinib (BVD-523) is a first-in-class small molecule inhibitor of ERK1/2 currently being investigated in several oncology clinical trials, both as a single agent and in combination with other anti-cancer therapeutics. Palbociclib and ribociclib are FDA approved orally active, potent, and highly selective reversible inhibitors of the CDK4 and CDK6 kinases. As it is well established that ERK activation increases cyclin D levels and entry into the cell cycle, we hypothesized that the combination of ERK1/2 and CDK4/6 inhibition would have synergistic antitumor activity and cause tumor regression in vivo. Initial in vitro work combined ulixertinib with CDK4/6 inhibitors across a small panel of lung cancer cell lines. Cell lines carrying a KRAS mutation were more sensitive to ulixertinib relative to KRAS wild type cell lines based on single agent IC50 values. The single agent IC50 values for the CDK4/6 inhibitors were dependent on whether a metabolic or non-metabolic readout for cell viability was used. The combination interactions across a dose matrix of concentrations were determined by the Loewe Additivity and Bliss Independence models. The results of combining ulixertinib and CDK4/6 inhibitors ranged from additive to potentially synergistic. The combination of ulixertinib and palbociclib was then assessed against four xenograft models representing colorectal, melanoma, and pancreatic tumor types, each harboring an alteration within a component of the MAPK pathway. Palbociclib monotherapy across all models showed limited tumor growth inhibition (TGI) while ulixertinib monotherapy demonstrated modest TGI across all models. The combination groups demonstrated significant responses ranging from 75% - 90% TGIs. All treatment regimens were well tolerated across all models. Downstream assays were completed including reverse phase protein arrays (RPPA). Using RPPA, treatment effects on protein signaling was evaluated in the MAPK family, cell cycle regulation, and other associated feedback and compensatory pathways. Notably, suppression of protein targets downstream of ERK1/2 were seen with both ulixertinib monotherapy and combination therapy. Similarly, the combination therapy group reduced protein levels involved in cell cycle progression, which was not seen in either monotherapy group alone. The efficacy demonstrated with this preclinical work has proven to be translatable to the clinic as the combination of ulixertinib and palbociclib recently achieved MTD in a Phase I trial in advanced solid tumors including pancreatic cancer (NCT 03454035).

    Abstract: e15068 Background: Since next generation sequencing (NGS) based profiling does not provide measures of protein abundance or activation state, clinical integration of reverse phase protein array (RPPA) with NGS could be useful for improving selection of targeted cancer therapy. We incorporated biopsy testing and proteogenomic analyses in an institutional Molecular Tumor Board (MTB) for cancer patients using CLIA-certified commercially available multi-omic platforms, including a commercially available CLIA RPPA functional protein drug target activation mapping platform. We present an interim analysis of our experience integrating functional phosphoprotein/protein based drug target activity data with NGS from 117 patients with metastatic solid tumors. Methods: Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor biopsy specimens (n = 166) were obtained prospectively from patients as part of an IRB approved MTB. A representative H & E-stained tissue section for each specimen was reviewed by a board-certified surgical pathologist. Specimens with sufficient total tumor cellularity to achieve protein lysate input requirements for RPPA were thin sectioned onto laser microdissection (LMD) membrane slides for selective harvest of tumor epithelium by LMD and RPPA analysis. In parallel, specimens from each case were also submitted for NGS analysis. The multi-omic data for each patient was reviewed by a panel of clinicians and scientists as part of the Inova Institutional MTB for clinical decision-making. Results: Patient tissue specimens (median = 1 per patient; range 1-5) were reviewed to assess feasibility of enriching tumor areas via LMD prior to RPPA analysis. Specimens from 64/117 patients were used for LMD, RPPA, and NGS. 48/117 patients were dropped due to inadequate tumor cellularity, patient death, or referral cases with inadequate specimen. At this time, 7/117 patients remained in the consenting-LMD-RPPA workflow. The median time from patient consent to RPPA analysis completion was 47.4 days. During this period, specimens were outside of the standard hospital-NGS workflow (ie, utilized for sectioning and review for LMD-RPPA) for ~10 days (median). Integrated review of the RPPA and NGS data by the MTB supported a clinical recommendation change for 34/64 patients (53%) overall, with some dependency by primary disease site. Clinical trial information: U20-11-4308.Conclusions: Incorporation of RPPA analysis of LMD enriched tumor samples with NGS was feasible in this pan-cancer cohort, with the mean time to results being less than 7 weeks. RPPA data provided additional treatment considerations for 59% of patients, the outcomes for whom continue to be monitored. [Table: see text]

    Abstract HER2-17: HER2-17 Novel Quantitative HER2 Assay for Determining Dynamic HER2 Expression in the HER2 IHC 0 “Ultra-Low” Setting: Implications for Precision Therapy in HER2- Breast Cancer

    Abstract: Background: The HER2 antibody drug conjugate (ADC) fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan-nxki (T-DXd) significantly improves outcomes over standard chemotherapy in pts with HER2-LOW (IHC 1+ and IHC 2+ FISH-) metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Data from the DAISY (NCT04132960) trial in pts with HER2 IHC 0 or “ultra low” MBC revealed median progression-free survival (PFS) of 4.2 mos vs 6.7 mos in HER2-LOW and 11.1 mos in HER2 3+ pts (Diéras V, et al. Cancer Res. 2022;82(4_Suppl):PD8-02). There is an urgent need to develop methods to accurately discern HER2 LOW expression versus HER2 IHC 0/ultra-low expression so appropriate pts may receive T-DXd. We have developed a quantitative HER2 assay using reverse phase protein array (RPPA) technology with laser capture microdissection (LCM) enrichment of tumor epithelium that measures HER2 expression over a 65-fold dynamic range in HER2 IHC 0 to 3+ breast cancers. In I-SPY 1 and 2 trials we found that RPPA-assessed quantitative HER2 and activated/phosphorylated HER2 expression predicted for pathologic complete response in pts with HER2 IHC 0, HER2-LOW and HER2 3+ disease with various HER2 and other targeted agents. We then developed and validated the first CLIA/CAP-accredited quantitative HER2 protein expression and activation assay, and now explore quantitative HER2 expression in HER2 IHC 0/ultra low disease. Given the recent approval of sacituzumab govitecan-hziy in TNBC and the results of the TROPiCS-02 (NCT03901339), we also evaluated quantitative RPPA-based TROP-2 expression levels in HER2 IHC 0 breast cancer. Methods: LCM-enriched tumor epithelium was obtained from freshly cut FFPE core needle and resected breast cancer samples from 175 pts with pathology-determined HER2 IHC 0 status (N=68 ER+ and N=107 ER-). Quantitative HER2 output is generated as a relative intensity unit (RU) that is interpolated to an internal calibrator curve and a population referent comprised of known HER2+ (IHC 3+ and 2+/FISH+), HER2-LOW and HER2 IHC 0/ultra-low tumors to generate population-based cut-points as a referent. RPPA-based quantitative HER2 expression are reported as one of four levels of expression across the HER2 dynamic range observed: “non/extremely low”, “modest“, “moderate”, and “high”. Quantitative TROP2 protein expression levels were also measured for each case by the RPPA assay on the same lysate using the same adjectival determinants of relative expression as HER2. Results: For the HER2 IHC 0 ER+ cohort, we observed HER2 protein expression over a 25-fold dynamic range and that 57% (N=39) had HER2 non/extremely low, 37% (N=25) modest, and 4 (6%) moderate/high HER2 expression by RPPA. For the HER2 IHC 0 ER- cohort, we observed HER2 protein expression over a 15-fold dynamic range and that 71% (N=76) had non/extremely low, and 31% (N=29%) modest HER2 expression. We observed TROP-2 protein expression over a 35-fold dynamic range across all tumors measured, and it was found to be at least modestly expressed in 95% (37/39) ER+ and 95% (72/76) ER- of the IHC 0/ultra-low tumors that were also found to be HER2 non/extremely low by RPPA. Conclusions: LCM-RPPA quantitative assessment of HER2 expression showed that nearly 40% of ER+ IHC 0 and 30% of ER- IHC 0 “ultra-low” breast cancers actually had modest to moderate HER2 expression. Interestingly, this frequency approximates the response rate of 30% seen with T-DXd in HER2 IHC 0 pts in the DAISY trial. Quantitatively measured TROP2 is at least modestly expressed in the vast majority of RPPA-assessed HER2 IHC 0 cancers regardless of ER status, making a TROP2-directed ADC an attractive therapeutic option for these pts. If validated in larger studies, LCM-RPPA-based HER2 expression could provide a better understanding of the potential for therapeutic efficacy with T-DXd in patients with HER2 IHC “ultra-low” disease, and may better define true ultra-low HER2 expression in HER2 IHC 0 tumor biopsies at baseline and refine the lower limit of the HER2-LOW designation.

    Abstract: Background: A CLIA-accredited assay that measures the expression and/or activation levels of 32 clinically actionable protein and phosphoprotein analytes in clinical tissue biopsy samples was launched in January 2021. The current intended use population for the assay is for patients with late/advanced stage breast cancer wherein molecular profiling is being utilized for clinical decision making. Assessment of physician ordering practices, clinical use dynamics as well as protein/phosphoprotein actionability frequencies were determined for clinically actionable biomarkers. Methods: A total of 219 cases have been processed to date, with mean turn-around time of 16.4 days. The assay utilizes laser capture microdissection to enrich tumor epithelium from FFPE core needle biopsy and resection material coupled to reverse phase protein array. Results for each of the 32 analytes are generated by comparing each patient to a reference population and reported both as a relative quartile and as a continuous percentile compared to the reference population (0-100%). For the purposes of this analysis, significant expression/activation cutpoints were set at the 40th percentile threshold. Results: To date, clinicians have requested the test most frequently to identify potential therapeutic targets in patients with HER2-negative disease (84% of all tested patients, 36% were triple-negative). Despite the majority of cases being HER2-negative, we found that phosphorylated (p) HER2 (Y1248) was found to be activated in 17% of all HER2-negative cases and 19% of triple negative breast cancer cases (TNBC). pHER2 was concurrently activated with pHER3 (Y1289) in 15% (12/80) of TNBC cases and 13% (24/187) of all HER2-negative cases. pHER2 presented concurrently with pEGFR (Y1068 or T654) in 14% (11/80) of TNBC cases and 14% (26/187) of all HER2- cases. Expression of TROP2 was observed in 16% of HER2-negative patients including 11% of ER+/HER2- and 23% of TNBC cancers. MHCII expression, a recently described candidate predictive biomarker of anti-PDL1/PD1 response in TNBC, was found to be expressed in 29% of TNBC patients. Activation frequencies of other clinically relevant drug targets in HER2-negative disease such AKT and mTOR pathway activation was also assessed. We found that pAKT (S473 and/or T308) was activated in 7% of ER+/HER2- cases and 14% of TNBC. Concurrent with AKT activation, at least one additional member of the AKT-mTOR pathway (mTORC1 (S2448), 4E-BP1 (S65), p70S6K (T389), or S6RP (S235/S236) was co-activated in 50% and 45% of ER+/HER2- and TNBC cancers respectively. Conclusion: This initial assessment of a CLIA LDT protein/phosphoprotein assay utilized to date found that physicians most often order the test for advanced stage HER2-negative breast cancer. Activation/expression of clinically important protein drug targets with potential actionability in HER2-negative disease was observed in a significant number of cases and demonstrates the power of the assay to elucidate actionable targets for potential therapeutic intervention.
