    Abstract: Approximately 10% of B-ALLs harbor CRLF2 rearrangements and have a poor prognosis. Although these leukemias are addicted to JAK2 signaling, ATP-competitive type I JAK2 inhibitors have limited activity (Weigert et al. J Exp Med 2012). This may result from heterodimerization of JAK2 with other JAK family members (Koppikar et al. Nature 2012). Type II inhibitors bind JAK2 in the inactive conformation and may have non-cross resistance with type I inhibitors. In Ba/F3 cells dependent on CRLF2 and the gain-of-function allele JAK2 R683G, the type II JAK2 inhibitor NVP-CHZ868 was more potent (IC50 21nM) than the type I inhibitors NVP-BSK805 (IC50 443nM) and NVP-BVB808 (IC50 111nM). Unlike type I inhibitors, CHZ868 completely abrogated JAK2 and STAT5 phosphorylation. In addition, the JAK2 Y931C allele that confers 4-6-fold resistance to BSK805 and BVB808 did not affect the IC50 of CHZ868. We assessed in vivo efficacy of CHZ868 in mice transplanted with transgenic (CRLF2/JAK2 R683G/Cdkn2a-/- or CRLF2/JAK2 R683G/Pax5+/-/Ts1Rhr) or primary human CRLF2-rearranged B-ALLs. Mice treated for 5-6 days with CHZ868 (30mg/kg/day PO) had significant reductions in spleen size compared to control mice and complete loss of phospho-STAT5 in residual leukemia cells. In both murine leukemias and human xenografts, CHZ868 prolonged survival compared to controls (p & lt;0.001), but all mice ultimately became moribund from B-ALL. To study mechanisms of resistance to type II JAK2 inhibitors, we screened a randomly mutagenized JAK2 R683G library expressed in Ba/F3-CRLF2 cells for clones resistant to the type II inhibitor NVP-BBT594. All ( & gt;30) clones sequenced harbored the same JAK2 L884P mutation. Ba/F3 cells expressing CRLF2 with JAK2 R683G/L884P had 14-fold resistance to CHZ868 (R683G IC50 16nM; R683G/L884P IC50 231nM). JAK2 L884P is homologous to an EGFR L747P activating mutation (He et al. Clin Cancer Res 2012), which destabilizes the P-loop and C-helix portion of the kinase domain. Next-generation sequencing of JAK2 from splenocytes of mice that progressed on CHZ868 treatment did not identify L884P or other missense mutations at & gt;1% frequency, suggesting in vivo treatment failure was not due to JAK2 mutation. To improve CHZ868 efficacy, we tested for synergy with multiple chemotherapy agents in MHH-CALL4 cells, which harbor a CRLF2/IGH rearrangement and JAK2 I682F mutation. Among the tested agents, dexamethasone was highly synergistic with CHZ868. In mice transplanted with CRLF2/JAK2 R683G/Pax5+/-/Ts1Rhr murine B-ALL, a 14-day course of CHZ868 prolonged survival compared to vehicle (p & lt;0.0001) or dexamethasone (p & lt;0.01), and the combination prolonged survival beyond CHZ868 monotherapy (p & lt;0.0001). In summary, the type II JAK2 inhibitor CHZ868 potently kills JAK2-dependent B-ALL, overcomes genetic resistance to type I inhibitors, and synergizes with dexamethasone in vitro and in vivo. Thus, combination strategies using dexamethasone with type II JAK2 inhibitors merit testing in patients with relapsed/refractory, JAK2-dependent B-ALL. Citation Format: Loretta S.

    Abstract: Although next-generation sequencing can delineate the genetic alterations within a primary tumor specimen, it can be difficult to distinguish the small number of driver mutations from the large number of passenger mutations. To overcome this issue, we developed a system for identifying oncogenic alterations directly from tumor cells. In this system, retroviral cDNA libraries built from cancer cell lines and directly from primary cancer samples are transduced into BaF3 cells, an IL3-dependent B cell line. Transformation by oncogenes promotes IL3-independent survival, allowing for the isolation of individual transformed clones and sequencing of the integrated cDNA. In the past, we identified CRLF2 as a novel oncogene in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Yoda et al. PNAS 2010). We have improved the method and demonstrated 100% sensitivity for isolating well-characterized oncogenes, including EGFR, HER2, RAS and ALK (Shindoh et al. PLoS One 2012). Recently, we isolated a mutated GNB1 K89E allele from a cDNA library generated from a primary blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN). BPDCN is a rare and aggressive leukemia with a dismal prognosis. GNB1 encodes the beta subunit of the heterotrimeric G-protein, a binding complex that transduces signals from G-protein coupled receptors to multiple downstream pathways. Gain-of-function mutations have been reported in alpha subunits of the G-protein, however, the contributions of beta subunits to cancer remains undefined. To investigate downstream signaling from GNB1 K89E, we performed gene expression profiling and mass spectrometry (MS)-based phosphoproteomics and found significant activation of RAS/MAPK and PI3K/AKT pathways in GNB1 K89E-expressing cells compared to isogenic cells expressing wild-type GNB1. To target GNB1 K89E signaling, we screened kinase inhibitors using a multiplex panel of small molecules and found selective sensitivity of GNB1 K89E cells to MEK and pan-PI3-kinase inhibitors. Next, we transduced GNB1 alleles into bone marrow cells from Cdkn2a-deficient mice and transplanted into wild-type recipient mice. Within 4 months after transplantation, all mice (n=10) that received bone marrow transduced with GNB1 K89E developed a lethal dendritic cell malignancy, confirming the transforming effects of GNB1 K89E in vivo. A search of published cancer mutations identified four cases with GNB1 I80T/N in chronic lymphocytic leukemia or B-cell lymphomas, five cases with GNB1 K57E/T in myeloid malignancies, one case of GNB1 K89E in acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and two cases with GNB2 M101T/V in ovarian cancer. All of these alleles promoted GM-CSF-independent growth in human TF1 cells. Interestingly, the mutated codons are all located on the GNB1 molecular surface that is critical for interactions between GNB1 and both alpha subunits and downstream effectors. Immunoprecipitation followed by MS demonstrated that GNB1 K89E and I80T mutants failed to bind inhibitory G alpha subunits GNAI2 and GNAI3 as well as GNA11 that are bound by wild-type GNB1. Thus, gain-of-function mutations in G-protein beta subunits occur across a broad range of malignancies, can drive in vivo transformation, and activate targetable downstream kinases by modifying essential interactions with partner proteins.

    Abstract 433: Triplication of HMGN1 promotes B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) through suppression of H3K27me3

    Abstract: Our goal is to identify oncogenic loci in regions of recurrent DNA copy number alterations in cancer. Constitutional trisomy 21 (Down syndrome) carries a 20-fold increased risk of B-ALL, and chr.21 gains are the most common acquired aneuploidy in B-ALL. Interstitial amplification in the chr.21q22 region (iAMP21) is also a recurrent finding in B-ALL and carries a poor prognosis. However, the gene(s) on chr.21 responsible for this association remain unclear. We studied the Ts1Rhr mouse, which carries germline triplication of 31 genes homologous to human chr.21q22. Chr.21q22 triplication was sufficient to promote B cell autonomous self-renewal and maturation defects, and cooperated with BCR-ABL or CRLF2 with JAK2 R683G to accelerate leukemogenesis. Chr.21q22 triplication also resulted in histone H3K27 hypomethylation at gene promoters, and the expression signature of triplicated B cells was enriched for genes targeted by polycomb repressor complex 2 (PRC2), which trimethylates H3K27. Thus, chr.21q22 triplication may deregulate B cell development by causing H3K27 hypomethylation at genes critical for progenitor cell growth. In support of this hypothesis, pharmacologic inhibition of PRC2 function was sufficient to confer self-renewal in wild-type B cells, while inhibition of H3K27 demethylases blocked self-renewal induced by chr.21q22 triplication. In three independent B-ALL cohorts, PRC2/H3K27 gene signatures distinguished leukemias with +21 from those without, validating the same biology in human disease. One of the 31 triplicated genes, HMGN1, encodes a nucleosome binding protein known to modulate chromatin structure and facilitate transcriptional activation. When we overexpressed HMGN1 in BaF3 proB cells, H3K27me3 decreased proportionally to the level of overexpression. We next knocked down each of the 31 triplicated genes with lentivirally-expressed shRNAs (5 per gene) and assessed the effects on growth of Ts1Rhr and wild-type primary B cells. Strikingly, Hmgn1 was the top scoring gene and all 5 hairpins targeting Hmgn1 were depleted in the assay. Finally, we studied transgenic mice (HMGN1_OE) that overexpress human HMGN1 (∼2-fold total overexpression). HMGN1_OE mice had a defect in B cell maturation, increased proB colony forming capacity, and a transcriptional signature overlapping with that of triplication of all 31 Ts1Rhr genes. In a bone marrow transplant model driven by BCR-ABL, recipients of HMGN1_OE bone marrow developed B-ALL with decreased latency (median 33 days vs not reached) and increased penetrance (17/18 vs 4/17 mice died by 80 days; leukemia-free survival difference P & lt;0.001) compared to recipients of wild-type bone marrow. These data indicate that HMGN1 is a B-ALL oncogene, and therapies targeting HMGN1 or the downstream effects of HMGN1 overexpression on epigenetic histone modifications may be effective in B-ALL with copy number gains involving chr.21q22.
