    Abstract: As the representative targeted anticancer drug for colon cancer patients, cetuximab is the EGFR targeted therapeutic antibody and used for treatment of KRAS wild type cancers. Even some patient with KRAS wt gene did not respond cetuximab. However, there is no treatment available for cetuximab-resistant patient group, which is almost 50% of KRAS WT gene holders. Recently, our team identified cetuximab primary resistant related proteins named as mtRTK (mutant receptor tyrosine kinase) by array analysis based cetuximab responder or non-responder colon cancer patient tissues. We investigated mtRTK’s oncogenic potential as a novel anti-cancer target. A large proportion of colon cancer patients (36.2% Caucasian, 56.9% Korean) expressed the mtRTK was identified, using the sequencing analysis of patient samples. Based on these results, our efforts have led to the discovery of WM-S1, mtRTK inhibitor, which is the first mtRTK inhibitor in clinical development. The potent enzyme inhibitor showed a high anticancer activity confirmed in Patient-Derived Cells (PDC) and Patient-Derived Xenograft (PDX) animal models expressing the mutation. In preclinical studies demonstrate that WM-S1 is well tolerated in rats and dogs. Furthermore, WM-S1 has potent anticancer activities for various solid tumor (NSCLC, cholangiocarcinoma, etc.) including activated mtKRAS colon cancer expressing the mtRTK. Currently we are investigating WM-S1 in a phase 1a trial in AUS, which is the first mtRTK inhibitor in clinical development. Meanwhile, the mtRTK inhibitor WM-S1 drives antitumor immunity (with anti-PD-L1) in NSCLC. Combinational approaches with immunotherapy showed that synergistic effect of WM-S1 and anti-PD1 monoclonal antibody, suppressing tumor growth by 75% in anti-PD1 resistance NSCLC-derived humanized mouse model. A phase 1b trial is expected to develop WM-S1 through not only indication expansion but also combination therapy with immuno-checkpoint inhibitors in the USA, AUS and KOR from Q2 2022. In conclusion, mtRTK is a potential oncogenic driver mutation in various solid tumor. A first-in-class anticancer agent WM-S1 targeting mtRTK can be promising therapeutic agents for cetuximab-resistant colon cancer patients regardless of KRAS mutation status and other cancers.

    Abstract: Purpose: Several cell-free DNA (cf-DNA) features, such as genome-wide coverage, fragment size, and fragment end motif frequency, have shown their potentials for cancer detection. In this study, we developed two independent models, GC (gross chromatin), and FEMS (fragment end motif frequency and size). Each model uses images generated from genome-wide normalized sequencing coverage and cf-DNA fragment end motif frequencies according to the different cf-DNA size profiles. Then we integrated them into a single ensemble model to improve cancer detection and multi-cancer type classification accuracy. Methods: Low depth cf-WGS data was generated from 1,396 patients (stage I: 14.9%, stage II: 35.6%, stage III: 24.9%, stage IV: 24.2%, unknown: 0.4%) with breast (n=702), liver (n=213), esophageal (n=155), ovarian (n=151), pancreatic (n=85), lung (n=53), head and neck (n=16), biliary tract (n=15), and colon cancer (n=6) and 417 healthy individuals. Samples were randomly split into training, validation, and test set stratifying cancer type and stages. Cancer types with a small number of samples ( & lt;20) were excluded for multi-cancer type classification. Each model was trained using a convolutional neural network, then integrated into a single ensemble model by averaging the predicted probabilities calculated from each model. Results: For cancer detection, the ensemble model achieved sensitivities of 85.2% [95% confidence interval (CI): 71.8% to 94.5%], 74.9% (CI: 68.0% to 88.0%), 73.2% (CI: 66.7% to 85.9%) at a specificity of 95%, 98% and 99% and the AUC value of 0.97(CI: 0.95-0.99) in the test dataset. By the cancer stages, sensitivity was 62.8% (CI: 48.8% to 83.7%) in stage I, 66.3% (CI: 57.7% to 82.7%) in stage II, 85.9% (CI: 77.5% to 94.4%) in stage III, and 76.1% (CI: 63.4% to 87.3%) in stage IV at 99% specificity. For multi-cancer classification, the overall accuracy of 85.1% (CI: 80.4% to 89.3%) was achieved including 6 cancer types. Conclusions: Highly sensitive and accurate deep learning model for cancer detection and multi-cancer classification was generated by combining different types of cf-DNA features. This result provides the opportunity for general population multi-cancer screening using various cf-DNA features.

    Abstract: Purpose: The increasing prevalence of distant metastases from non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) indicates an urgent need for novel therapeutic modalities. Brain metastasis is particularly common in NSCLC, with severe adverse effects on clinical prognosis. Although the molecular heterogeneity of NSCLC and availability of various targeted agents suggest personalized therapeutic approaches for such brain metastases, further development of appropriate preclinical models is needed to validate the strategies. Experimental Design: We established patient-derived xenografts (PDX) using NSCLC brain metastasis surgical samples and elucidated their possible preclinical and clinical implications for personalized treatment. Results: NSCLC brain metastases (n = 34) showed a significantly higher successful PDX establishment rate than primary specimens (n = 64; 74% vs. 23%). PDXs derived from NSCLC brain metastases recapitulated the pathologic, genetic, and functional properties of corresponding parental tumors. Furthermore, tumor spheres established in vitro from the xenografts under serum-free conditions maintained their in vivo brain metastatic potential. Differential phenotypic and molecular responses to 20 targeted agents could subsequently be screened in vitro using these NSCLC PDXs derived from brain metastases. Although PDX establishment from primary NSCLCs was significantly influenced by histologic subtype, clinical aggressiveness, and genetic alteration status, the brain metastases exhibited consistently adequate in vivo tumor take rate and in vitro tumor sphere formation capacity, regardless of clinical and molecular conditions. Conclusions: Therefore, PDXs from NSCLC brain metastases may better represent the heterogeneous advanced NSCLC population and could be utilized as preclinical models to meet unmet clinical needs such as drug screening for personalized treatments.

    Abstract: Introduction: Regorafenib is an oral multikinase inhibitor, which has anti-angiogenic and anti-tumor activity by inhibition of a number of angiogenic and oncogenic kinases. It induces distinct radiological changes in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), which are decrease in tumor attenuation and cavitation of lung metastasis. These changes may be a result of anti-angiogenic activity, but the clinical implications of the changes are unclear. This study was designed to analyze the radiological changes in association with treatment outcome in mCRC patients treated with regorafenib. Methods: All patients were a part of a main study entitled Identification of Predictive Biomarker of Regorafenib in Refractory Colorectal Cancer: A Prospective Explorative Study (NCT01996969). Tumor attenuation measured by Hounsfield units (HU) of contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) scan and cavitary changes of lung metastases were evaluated in mCRC patients (N = 80) treated with regorafenib (160mg orally once daily, on days 1-21 of a 28-day cycle). Maximum standardized uptake values (mSUV) of tumor lesions at baseline and after 2 cycles of treatment were analyzed in patients whose 18-fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET)-CT images were available for analysis. Treatment outcome was evaluated according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1. The association between radiological changes and treatment outcome was analyzed. Results: A total of 141 lesions in 72 patients were analyzed with HU measurement. After 2 cycles of regorafenib treatment, 87.5% of patients had a decrease in tumor attenuation. Median change in tumor attenuation was -23.9% (range -61.5% to 20.7%). Lesional attenuation changes were modestly associated with changes in mSUV in PET-CT scans (Pearson's r = 0.38, p & lt;0.001). Among 53 patients with lung metastases, 17 patients (32.1%) developed cavitary changes after treatment. New cavitation was observed in 15 patients and 6 had increases in pre-existing cavity size. Neither of the radiological changes was associated with disease control rate, progression-free survival, or overall survival. At the time of progressive disease (PD) according to RECIST 1.1, tumor attenuation was lower than baseline in 86.0% (43/50) of patients and cavitary change of lung metastases persisted without refilling in 88.2% (15/17) of patients. Conclusions: Regorafenib showed prominent anti-angiogenic activity in mCRC represented by the radiological changes. Although the changes were not associated with treatment outcome, it was persistently observed at the time of PD by RECIST 1.1. The results suggest the possibility of inadequacy of current conventional response evaluation paradigm in treating mCRC patients with regorafenib. We may need to develop alternative evaluation and treatment strategies considering the anti-angiogenic activity.

    Abstract: Tumor hypoxia and aerobic glycolysis are well-known resistance factors for anticancer therapies. Here, we demonstrate that tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) enhance tumor hypoxia and aerobic glycolysis in mice subcutaneous tumors and in patients with non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We found a strong correlation between CD68 TAM immunostaining and PET 18fluoro-deoxyglucose (FDG) uptake in 98 matched tumors of patients with NSCLC. We also observed a significant correlation between CD68 and glycolytic gene signatures in 513 patients with NSCLC from The Cancer Genome Atlas database. TAM secreted TNFα to promote tumor cell glycolysis, whereas increased AMP-activated protein kinase and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha in TAM facilitated tumor hypoxia. Depletion of TAM by clodronate was sufficient to abrogate aerobic glycolysis and tumor hypoxia, thereby improving tumor response to anticancer therapies. TAM depletion led to a significant increase in programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression in aerobic cancer cells as well as T-cell infiltration in tumors, resulting in antitumor efficacy by PD-L1 antibodies, which were otherwise completely ineffective. These data suggest that TAM can significantly alter tumor metabolism, further complicating tumor response to anticancer therapies, including immunotherapy. Significance: These findings show that tumor-associated macrophages can significantly modulate tumor metabolism, hindering the efficacy of anticancer therapies, including anti-PD-L1 immunotherapy.

    Abstract: Advanced gastric cancer is one of the most aggressive gastrointestinal malignancies, and ADAM (A disintegrin and metalloproteinase)-9 is a cell-surface membrane glycoprotein with oncogenic properties that is overexpressed in several cancers. Herein, we investigated the biologic mechanism of ADAM9 in the progression, proliferation, and invasion of gastric cancer. First, we detected ADAM's expression, processing, and protease activity in gastric cancer cells. Protease activity was moderately correlated with ADAM9 protein expression, but was better related to a processed smaller molecular weight (84 kDa) form of ADAM9. Knockdown of ADAM9 or specifically targeted monoclonal antibody (RAV-18) suppressed cancer cell proliferation and invasion in high ADAM9-expressing cells, not in low ADAM9-expressing cells. RAV-18 showed in vivo antitumor activity in a gastric cancer xenograft model. Hypoxia (1% oxygen) induced ADAM9 expression and functional activity in low ADAM9-expressing gastric cancer cells that was inhibited by siRNA knockdown or RAV-18 antibody to levels in normoxic cells. Overall, our studies show that ADAM9 plays an important role in gastric cancer proliferation and invasion, and that while expressed in some gastric cancer cells at high levels that are responsive to functional inhibition and antitumor activity of a catalytic site–directed antibody, other gastric cancer cells have low levels of expression and only when exposed to hypoxia do ADAM9 levels increase and the cells become responsive to ADAM9 antibody inhibition. Therefore, our findings suggest that ADAM9 could be an effective therapeutic target for advanced gastric cancer. Mol Cancer Ther; 13(12); 3074–85. ©2014 AACR.

    Abstract: Purpose: T-DM1, an antibody-drug conjugate, has significant antitumor activity in patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer (mBC) patients who had progressed after trastuzumab-based chemotherapy. This study was conducted to investigate the clinical practice and factors related with outcomes of T-DM1 use for HER2-positive mBC patients in the nation-wide real-world setting. Method: This complete enumeration study included the patients with HER2-positive mBC who received T-DM1 as palliative therapy from August 2017 to December 2018 under the registry of Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service in Korea. Safety and outcomes of T-DM1 including overall response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival were evaluated. Factors significant in univariate analysis were analyzed in multivariate model. Result: From the sixty institutions, a total of 824 patients were enrolled. Mean age was 58 years-old, 818 patients (99.3%) were female and 516 patients (62.6%) had relapsed after curative treatment. About 40% patients received T-DM1 as first or second line treatment, 21.5% received it as third line and 37.3% as fourth or over line. During a median follow-up of 16.8 months, the ORR was 32.8%, median PFS was 7.2 months and median OS was not reached. In multivariate analysis, clinical factors associated with the lower PFS were age ( & lt; 65 year-old, hazard ratio[HR] 1.53, 95% confidence interval[CI] : 1.214-1.919, p & lt; 0.001), poor ECOG performance status (PS ≥ 2, HR 1.98, 95% CI: 1.493-2.626, p & lt; 0.001), previous pertuzumab use (HR 1.40, 95% CI: 1.118-1.742, p = 0.003) and previous lapatinib use (HR 1.29, 95% CI: 1.047-1.586, p =0.017). The common grade 3-4 adverse events were thrombocytopenia (13.0%), neutropenia (2.9%), and elevation of liver enzyme (2.5%). Hypokalemia (≤ 3.0 mmol/L) and any-grade bleeding event such as epistaxis and gum-bleeding occurred in 25 (3.1%) and 94 patients (11.4%), respectively. Conclusion: This is the first, nationwide, real-world data about T-DM1 use of the HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer patients in Korea. The efficacy and toxicity profile of T-DM1 in the real-world practice were comparable with those of randomized trials. Patients’ factors and previous anti-HER2 therapy could predict the outcomes of T-DM1. Further studies to reveal the subtypes of good responders to T-DM1 and the sequence of anti-HER2 therapy are warranted.

    Abstract: Purpose: To develop a gamma camera imaging method for the determination of endogenous gene expression, we evaluated the expression of endogenous p53 gene using human sodium iodide symporter (hNIS) gene as reporter. Experimental Design: We constructed cis-p53RE-hNIS reporter vector placed under control of an artificial enhancer (p53RE). Moreover, we transfected it into human hepatoma cell line SK-Hep1 by liposome. Geneticin was used for the selection of stable transfectant (SK-Hep1p53NIS). To evaluate the function of hNIS, the inhibition study was examined with 1 mmol/L potassium perchlorate. After treatment of Adriamycin with serial dose for 24 hours, we measured the uptake of 125I and did Western blot analysis to evaluate expression of p53 protein. Tumor xenografts were produced in nude mice by s.c. injection of SK-Hep1p53NIS cells. After 7 days, scintigraphic images of nude mice before and after Adriamycin treatment were obtained using [99mTc]-pertechnetate. Results: In the SK-Hep1p53NIS cells, Adriamycin-treated cells accumulated up to three times higher than did nontreated cells. Potassium perchlorate inhibited completely the uptake of 125I. As Adriamycin dose increased, radioiodide uptake was significantly correlated with activated p53 as well as total p53 protein level. When Adriamycin (2 mg/kg) was treated in the same mice, a significantly higher uptake of [99mTc]-pertechnetate was observed in SK-Hep1p53NIS xenografts compared with nontreated xenografts (P & lt; 0.05, unpaired t test). Conclusions: These results suggest that p53 expression level can be monitored by NIS gene expression using cis-p53RE-hNIS system in vitro and in vivo.

    Abstract: Due to the innate high metastatic ability of renal cell carcinoma (RCC), many patients with RCC experience local or systemic relapses after surgical resection. A deeper understanding of the molecular pathogenesis underlying advanced RCC is essential for novel innovative therapeutics. Tumor progression locus 2 (Tpl2), upregulated in various tumor types, has been reported to be associated with oncogenesis and metastatic progression via activation of the MAPK signaling pathway. Herein, the relevance of Tpl2 in tumor growth and metastasis of RCC is explored. Inspection of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) indicated that Tpl2 overexpression was significantly related to the presence of metastases and poor outcome in clear cell RCC (ccRCC), which is the most aggressive subtype of RCC. Moreover, expression of Tpl2 and CXCR4 showed a positive correlation in ccRCC patients. Depletion of Tpl2 by RNAi or activity by a Tpl2 kinase inhibitor in human ccRCC cells remarkably suppressed MAPK pathways and impaired in vitro cell proliferation, clonogenicity, anoikis resistance, migration, and invasion capabilities. Similarly, orthotopic xenograft growth and lung metastasis were significantly inhibited by Tpl2 silencing. Furthermore, Tpl2 knockdown reduced CXCL12-directed chemotaxis and chemoinvasion accompanied with impaired downstream signaling, indicating potential involvement of Tpl2 in CXCR4-mediated metastasis. Taken together, these data indicate that Tpl2 kinase is associated with and contributes to disease progression of ccRCC. Implications: Tpl2 kinase activity has prognostic and therapeutic targeting potential in aggressive clear cell renal cell carcinoma. Mol Cancer Res; 11(11); 1375–86. ©2013 AACR.

    Abstract: Insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF-1R)-mediated signaling plays an important role in the proliferation, survival, and metastasis of cancer cells. The IGF-1R-targeting anticancer agents including monoclonal antibodies and small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been developed, but their antitumor effects have been marginal and limited in clinical trials. Therefore, the mechanism underlying resistance to the IGF-1R-targeting therapies and the rational combination strategies to overcome potential drug resistance need to be investigated. In this study, we demonstrated the association of Src with the resistance to the IGF-1R TKI in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We found the co-activation of IGF-1R/IR and Src in various human NSCLC cell lines, The mRNA expression and phosphorylation of IGF-1R and Src were also significantly correlated with each other in NSCLC databases from a public dataset and a tissue microarray (n=353). Next, we found Src can be activated through multiple pathways including EGFR and integrin β3 signaling and function as an alternative kinase for phosphorylation of IGF-1R, especially at Tyr1135/36, but not Tyr1131. Src is activated in lung cancer cells possessing both primary and acquired resistance to an IGF-1R TKI. Consistent with the results, inhibition of Src significantly attenuated activation of IGF-1R/IR and co-targeting of IGF-1R and Src effectively suppressed cell proliferation, colony formation, and tumor growth in vitro and in vivo. Taken together, these results suggest that Src causes resistance to IGF-1R TKIs by functioning as a key downstream modulator of multiple signaling pathways for IGF-1R phosphorylation and thus co-targeting IGF-1R and Src could be an effective therapeutic strategy for NSCLC.
