    Abstract: RMC-4630 is a potent, selective, orally bioavailable allosteric inhibitor of SHP2, a central node regulating RAS signaling. Consistent with preclinical observations, initial data from a phase 1 trial of RMC-4630 showed anti-tumor activity in tumors harboring diverse mutations in the RAS pathway including KRASG12C, KRASG12D, NF1LOF, and BRAF Class 3. Here we report data from the dose-escalation phase of this study. A total of 104 patients were dosed across three schedules: daily dosing (n = 49) and two intermittent dosing schedules, twice weekly on D1D4 (n = 31) or D1D2 (n = 24). Based on PK and tolerability, the recommended phase 2 dose and schedule (RP2DS) was determined to be 200 mg D1D2, delivering a 400 mg weekly dose intensity. Of the 80 efficacy evaluable patients, there was 1 CR (NF1LOF uterine carcinosarcoma), 1 PR (KRASG12C NSCLC), and 1 unconfirmed PR (KRASG12D NSCLC). Tumor regressions were observed in another 11 patients (-2.4% to -27.1%). Disease control rate was 61% (23/38) in patients with KRASMUT NSCLC and 80% (12/15) in KRASG12C NSCLC specifically. The safety and tolerability profile of RMC-4630 were consistent with the mechanism of action and RAS pathway inhibition. The most frequent adverse events (AEs) were edema (48%), diarrhea (47%), fatigue (36%), anemia (34%), and thrombocytopenia (33%). Most AEs were grade 1 or 2 and were manageable. Intermittent dosing with either D1D2 or D1D4 weekly was generally better tolerated than daily dosing at an equivalent weekly dose intensity. Plasma concentrations of RMC-4630 after dosing with 200 mg D1D2 were above those predicted to be clinically active based on preclinical models. Cmax reached and often exceeded the ‘apoptotic threshold' defined as plasma exposures that were associated with induction of tumor regressions in preclinical models. Trough concentrations at the end of each week were at or around the EC50 for RAS pathway inhibition in tumor which is predicted to be sufficient to allow normal tissue recovery and therefore maintain tolerability with sustained dosing up to 6 months. Sequential analysis of pERK levels in peripheral blood cells and paired pre- and on-treatment tumor biopsies showed evidence of RAS pathway inhibition. Tumor and blood-based immune-oncology biomarkers showed preliminary evidence of anti-tumor immune activation. Longitudinal analysis of circulating tumor DNA indicated molecular responses consistent with anti-tumor activity in tumors carrying specific driver mutations in the RAS signaling pathway. An expansion cohort of patients with gynecologic cancers with NF1LOF is underway with monotherapy at the RP2DS. RMC-4630 continues to be evaluated in combination with the MEK inhibitor cobimetinib (Cotellic), the KRASG12C(OFF) inhibitor sotorasib, the PD1 inhibitor pembrolizumab (Keytruda) and the EGFR inhibitor osimertinib (Tagrisso). Additional combination studies are also planned. Citation Format: Marianna Koczywas, Eric Haura, Pasi A. Janne, Jose M. Pacheco, Susanna Ulahannan, Judy S. Wang, Howard A. Burris, Jonathan W.

    Abstract: RMC-4630 is a potent, selective, orally bioavailable allosteric inhibitor of SHP2, a central node in the RAS signaling pathway. Preclinical data have demonstrated that RMC-4630 can shrink tumors carrying certain mutations in the RAS pathway such as KRASG12C, NF1LOF, and BRAFClass3. Longitudinal circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) was isolated from blood using GuardantOMNI in 80 patients with relapsed/refractory solid tumors in the phase 1 dose-escalation trial of RMC-4630 (NCT03634982) to characterize and confirm RAS pathway mutations and to evaluate molecular responses in patients receiving RMC-4630 monotherapy. Safety, PK and efficacy findings from this study are reported in a separate abstract. 78 of 80 patients had baseline somatic mutations detected in plasma, of which 60 were either KRASG12X, NF1LOF, or BRAFClass3; 48 of these 60 patients also had on-treatment ctDNA assessments and these patients constitute the population reported here. 9 of 48 patients (19%) had KRASG12C detected at baseline, available scan results and a ctDNA sample after 4 weeks of receiving RMC-4630. A decrease in KRASG12C variant allele frequency (VAF) was detected in 5/9 patients (56%) with clearance in 1 patient with a partial response. Decrease in KRASG12C VAF was associated with change in tumor volume (PCC=0.85, p=0.008), preceding scan results by approximately 1 month, suggesting that change in KRASG12C VAF may be an early measure of drug activity or possibly response. 5 of 48 patients (10%) had NF1LOF detected at baseline. A decrease, or stability in NF1LOF VAF on treatment compared to baseline was detected in 4 (80% of all NF1LOF patients). The decrease in NF1LOF VAF was not associated with change in tumor volume and may represent effects of RMC-4630 on a subclone harboring NF1LOF. One patient had a detectable BRAFClass3 mutation at baseline, which decreased in VAF on treatment compared to baseline. Of the remaining patients there were 12 KRASG12D, 9 KRASG12V and other KRASG12X. The majority progressed with an increase in VAF of all mutations including KRASG12X, suggesting that the KRASG12X-containing clone is responsible for escape from single agent RMC-4630. In most instances the increase in KRASG12X VAF in blood preceded determination of clinical progression. Longitudinal assessment of ctDNA indicates that some patients with RAS-addicted tumors undergo a molecular response on treatment with the SHP2 inhibitor RMC-4630. Citation Format: Josie L.

    Abstract: RMC-4630 is a potent, selective, orally bioavailable allosteric inhibitor of SHP2, a central node in the RAS signaling pathway. In preclinical models, SHP2 inhibition not only directly inhibited tumor growth through suppression of tumor-intrinsic RAS signaling, but also resulted in transformation of the tumor immune microenvironment, characterized by an increase in CD8+T cell infiltrates and selective depletion of pro-tumorigenic M2 macrophages. In this study, we evaluated pharmacodynamic biomarkers in blood and tumors from patients in the RMC-4630 phase I monotherapy clinical trial (NCT 03634982) by using flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry (IHC). Safety, PK and efficacy data are reported in a separate abstract. Longitudinal analysis of immune cell phenotyping in blood was conducted in 35 patients. There was a trend for lower pre-study monocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cell (mMDSC) to be associated with a better clinical outcome on RMC-4630 therapy. While the proportion of circulating T cell and B cell populations did not change, both blood mMDSC and total monocytes were significantly reduced during RMC-4630 administration. Furthermore, tumor volumes changes, and the proportion of patients with SD versus PD, positively correlated with the ratio of mMDSCs to total monocytes on RMC-4630 treatment. Inhibition of pERK was observed in a subset of patients. Three paired tumor biopsies from efficacy-evaluable patients, including 1 PR, 1 SD and 1 PD, were available for tumor microenvironment analysis by multiplexed-IHC assays. Increase in tumor infiltrating T cells in the tumors of one patient with a PR and another with SD was observed on RMC-4630 therapy. Inhibition of tumor PD-L1 expression and a decrease in M2 macrophages was also observed on treatment in the tumor biopsy of the PR patient. Collectively, the preliminary clinical biomarker data supports the preclinical observations that SHP2 inhibition with RMC-4630 modulates both innate and adaptive anti-tumor immunity.

    Abstract: Background The population aged over 65 years is growing fast. The incidence of most cancers increases with age, and the cancer burden is projected to increase in the future. Colorectal cancer is the second most common cancer worldwide in patients over 65 years. The proportion of rectal cancer has been increasing. Therefore, we specifically characterized the older rectal cancer patients to provide an insight into cancer care for this population. Method A total of 428 and 26,765 patients diagnosed with non-metastatic rectal cancer after 50 years old from a referral tertiary care center (SYSU cohort) and Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results database (SEER cohort) were included in the current study. Patients were categorized by age into intermediate-aged adults (aged 50-65 years, n=223) and older adults (aged≥65 years, n=205). The demographic and clinicopathological features, molecular profiles, treatment strategies, and clinical outcomes were compared between the two groups. The inverse probability weighting method was used to perform risk factors-adjusted survival analysis. Results In the SYSU cohort, the difference between the two age groups was not significant in the clinicopathological features that were reported to be prognostic factors in previous studies, including tumor-node stage, poor differentiation, lymphovascular and perineural invasion and mucinous tumor. In the subset with molecular profiles, the distribution of CpG island methylator phenotype, mutations of KRAS and BRAF, and CD3+ and CD8+ tumor-Infiltrating lymphocyte counts were similar between two age groups. Of note, the older patients had higher prevalence of microsatellite instability (34.3% vs 22.2%, P=0.344). In the whole cohort, the older age was significantly associated with less cancer treatment, including neoadjuvant (6.8% vs 15.2%, P=0.009) and adjuvant (32.7% vs 57.8%, P & lt;0.001) treatment. In addition, significantly lower BMI (median: 21.92 vs 22.92 kg/m2, P=0.004), lower baseline albumin (median: 39.75 vs 41.20 g/L, P=0.003), and higher incidence of high blood pressure (29.3% vs 12.1%, P & lt;0.001) were found in the older patients. Finally, the older patients had significantly worse overall survival outcome (adjusted hazard ratio 2.17 [95% Cl 1.44-3.27, P & lt;0.001]), and this finding was validated in the SEER cohort (adjusted hazard ratio 1.65 [95%Cl 1.58-1.72, P & lt;0.001]). Conclusions Older patients present with more comorbidities and worse nutritional status, and they are less likely to receive cancer therapies. Although older patients had the similar clinicopathological profiles compared with intermediate-aged patients, they had unfavorable survival outcomes. Further studies are needed to confirm the extent to which our findings reflect the insufficient cancer care for older patients and improve the clinical outcomes of this population.

    Abstract: Background: To provide a quantitative assessment of the association between body mass index (BMI) and the risk of gastric cancer, we summarized the evidence from prospective studies. Methods: Eligible studies published up to November 30, 2012, were retrieved via computer searches of MEDLINE and EMBASE as well as manual review of references. Summary relative risks (SRR) with their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using a random-effects model. Results: A total of 24 prospective studies of BMI and gastric cancer risk with 41,791 cases were included in our analysis. Overall, both overweight (BMI, 25–30 kg/m2) and obesity (BMI, ≥30 kg/m2) were not associated with risk of total gastric cancer (overweight: SRR, 1.01; 95% CI, 0.96–1.07; obesity: SRR, 1.06; 95% CI, 0.99–1.12). Furthermore, we found increased BMI was positively associated with the risk of gastric cardia cancer (GCC; SRR = 1.21 for overweight and 1.82 for obesity), but not with gastric non-cardia cancer (GNCC; SRR = 0.93 for overweight and SRR = 1.00 for obesity). Similar results were observed in a linear dose–response analysis. Conclusion: On the basis of meta-analysis of prospective studies, we find high BMI is positively associated with the risk of GCCs but not with GNCCs. Impact: (i) On the basis of more definite and quantitative evidence than previously available, we found that increasing BMI was not a clear risk factor for total gastric cancer. (ii) Increased BMI was positively associated with risk of GCC but not with GNCCs. Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev; 22(8); 1395–408. ©2013 AACR.

    Abstract: Angiotensin converting enzyme II (ACE2) is the cellular receptor of SARS-CoV-2. At present, ACE2 receptor is considered to be the key component in the SARS-CoV-2 infection and transmitting in the host. Among the cancer patients with COVID-19, the gastrointestinal cancer is the second most prevalent. The MethyLight and QASM assays were used to evaluated the genomic DNA 5mC methylation, while the CviAII enzyme-based 6mA-RE-qPCR was applied to determine motif-specific DNA 6mA methylation. The 6mA and 5mC methylation analyses of the long interspersed nuclear elements 1 (LINE1) were used to evaluate the global level of genomic 6mA and 5mC methylations, respectively. To investigate the role of ACE2 DNA methylation in regulating ACE2 expression, we performed a genome-wide methylation analysis in colorectal cancer samples collected at the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University. The DNA 5mC methylation of ACE2 promoter in tumor tissues were significantly lower than that in normal tissues, while the DNA 6mA methylation of ACE2 promoter in tumor tissues was significantly higher than that in normal tissues. In addition, the mRNA and protein expression of ACE2 in tumor tissues were lower than that in normal tissues. To explore the epigenetic regulation on ACE2 expression, we treated colon cancer cell lines with 5-Azacytidine and found ACE2 expression was upregulated after lowering the DNA 5mC methylation. The correlation analysis in patient cohort samples showed that ACE2 mRNA expression was positively correlated with DNA 5mC and negatively associated with DNA 6mA methylation. Next, a novel CRISPR-based tool was developed for sequence-specific 6mA editing on ACE2 promoter region, and it was applied in HCT116 cell to further confirm the regulatory role of DNA 6mA methylation in ACE2 mRNA expression. This tool was proved to be reliable with our findings that the CRISPR/dCas9-METTL3 tool could dramatically upregulate DNA 6mA methylation in ACE2 promoter, while the global level of genomic 6mA methylation remained unchanged. Both the mRNA and protein expression of ACE2 were significantly increased following a sequence-specific DNA 6mA editing in ACE2 promoter. In conclusion, we revealed the aberrant DNA 5mC and 6mA methylations in colorectal cancer, which upregulate ACE2 expression in colorectal cancer cells that may confer the susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 infection. We developed a novel CRISPR-based tool that could realize site-directed 6mA methylation editing. Notably, the epigenetic regulation of DNA 6mA methylation on ACE2 expression provides an insight into the intersection of the biology of cancer, SARS-CoV-2 infection and organ-specific complication in COVID-19. Aberrant ACE2 methylation may serve as a biomarker and treatment target in these patients. Citation Format: Heng Wang, Yumo Xie, Gaopo Xu, Xiaolin Wang, Meijin Huang, Yanxin Luo, Huichuan Yu.

    Abstract: DNA methylation contributes to malignant transformation, but little is known about how the methylation drives colorectal cancer evolution at the early stages. Here we identify aberrant INA (α-internexin) gene methylation in colon adenoma and adenocarcinoma by filtering data obtained from a genome-wide screen of methylated genes. The gene encoding INA, a type IV intermediate filament, was frequently hypermethylated in CpG islands located in the promoter region. This hypermethylation preferentially occurred in large tumors and was a prognostic marker for poor overall survival in patients with colorectal cancer. This type of epigenetic alteration silenced INA expression in both adenoma and adenocarcinoma tissues. Gene silencing of INA in colorectal cancer cells increased cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Restored INA expression blocked migration and invasion in vitro and reduced lung metastasis in vivo. Mechanistically, INA directly inhibited microtubule polymerization in vitro and decreased intracellular microtubule plus-end assembly rates. A peptide array screen surveying the tubulin-binding sites in INA identified a tubulin-binding motif located in the N-terminal head domain that plays a tumor-suppressive role by binding to unpolymerized tubulins and impeding microtubule polymerization. Thus, epigenetic inactivation of INA is an intermediate filament reorganization event that is essential to accelerate microtubule polymerization in the early stages of colorectal cancer. Significance: This work provides insight into the epigenetic inactivation of INA, a novel identified tumor suppressor, which increases microtubule polymerization during colorectal cancer progression.

    Abstract: Purpose: GRN1005 is a peptide–drug conjugate with the ability to penetrate the blood–brain barrier (BBB) and tumor cells by targeting the low-density lipoprotein receptor–related protein-1. We conducted a first-in-human phase I trial of GRN1005 in patients with recurrent glioma. Methods: Patients received GRN1005 by intravenous infusion every 3 weeks. Doses were escalated using a modified Fibonacci scheme. Study objectives included safety, tolerability, identification of the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), pharmacokinetics, and preliminary evidence of efficacy. Tumor extracted from patients undergoing surgery following administration of GRN1005 was analyzed to determine whether therapeutic concentrations of GRN1005 were achieved. Results: Sixty-three patients received GRN1005 at doses of 30 to 700 mg/m2 every 3 weeks. Therapy was well tolerated with neutropenia, leucopenia, and fatigue as the most frequent drug-associated grade 3/4 or higher toxicities. The MTD was 650 mg/m2 every 3 weeks. Dose-limiting toxicities were grade 3 mucositis and grade 4 neutropenia. There was no evidence of central nervous system toxicity or antibody production. Pharmacokinetic analysis showed that exposure to GRN1005 was dose proportional. We observed one complete and two partial responses. Eight of 27 patients dosed ≥420 mg/m2 had stable disease, which lasted a median of 51 days. Therapeutic concentrations of GRN1005 and free paclitaxel were shown in tumor tissue of surgical patients dosed with ≥200 mg/m2. Conclusion: GRN1005 delivers paclitaxel across the BBB and achieves therapeutic concentrations in tumor tissue. It has similar toxicity to paclitaxel and appears to have activity in recurrent glioma. The recommended phase II dose is 650 mg/m2 every 3 weeks. Clin Cancer Res; 19(6); 1567–76. ©2013 AACR.

    Abstract: Purpose: Intratumoral heterogeneity emerges from accumulating genetic and epigenetic changes during tumorigenesis, which may contribute to therapeutic failure and drug resistance. We aimed to develop a tool that can evaluate the intratumoral epigenetic heterogeneity using the DNA methylation profiles from bulk tumors. Methods: Ggenomic DNA of three laser micro-dissected tumor regions, including digestive tract surface (DTS), central bulk (CB), and invasive margin (IM), was extracted from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) sections of 98 colorectal cancer patients. The genome-wide methylation profiles were generated with methylation array. The most variable methylated probes were selected to construct a DNA methylation-based heterogeneity (MeHEG) estimation tool that can deconvolve the proportion of each reference tumor region with the support vector machine model-based method. A PCR-based assay for quantitative analysis of DNA methylation (QASM) was developed to specifically determine the methylation status of each CpG in MeHEG assay at single-base resolution to realize fast evaluation of epigenetic heterogeneity. Results: In the discovery set with 79 patients, the differentially methylated CpGs among the three tumor regions were found. The 7 most representative CpGs were identified by random forest analysis and subsequently selected to develop the MeHEG algorithm. We validated its performance of deconvolution of tumor regions in an independent cohort with 19 patients. In addition, we showed the significant association of MeHEG-based epigenetic heterogeneity with the genomic heterogeneity in mutation and copy number variation in our in-house and TCGA cohorts. Finally, we found that the patients with higher MeHEG score had worse disease-free and overall survival outcomes. Conclusion: By constructing a 7-loci panel with a machine learning approach and QASM assay to facilitate its use in a PCR manner, we developed a valuable method to evaluate the intratumoral epigenetic heterogeneity. The MeHEG algorithm provides innovative insights into the intratumoral heterogeneity from the epigenetic perspective that may add valuable sources to current knowledge about tumor heterogeneity.

    Abstract: miRNAs are essential for self-renewal and differentiation of normal and malignant stem cells by regulating the expression of key stem cell regulatory genes. Here, we report evidence implicating the miR100 in self-renewal of cancer stem–like cells (CSC). We found that miR100 expression levels relate to the cellular differentiation state, with lowest expression in cells displaying stem cell markers. Utilizing a tetracycline-inducible lentivirus to elevate expression of miR100 in human cells, we found that increasing miR100 levels decreased the production of breast CSCs. This effect was correlated with an inhibition of cancer cell proliferation in vitro and in mouse tumor xenografts due to attenuated expression of the CSC regulatory genes SMARCA5, SMARCD1, and BMPR2. Furthermore, miR100 induction in breast CSCs immediately upon their orthotopic implantation or intracardiac injection completely blocked tumor growth and metastasis formation. Clinically, we observed a significant association between miR100 expression in breast cancer specimens and patient survival. Our results suggest that miR100 is required to direct CSC self-renewal and differentiation. Cancer Res; 74(22); 6648–60. ©2014 AACR.
