    Abstract: Examining the role of developmental signaling pathways in “driver gene–negative” lung adenocarcinoma (patients with lung adenocarcinoma negative for EGFR, KRAS, BRAF, HER2, MET, ALK, RET, and ROS1 were identified as “driver gene–negative”) may shed light on the clinical research and treatment for this lung adenocarcinoma subgroup. We aimed to investigate whether developmental signaling pathways activation can stratify the risk of “driver gene–negative” lung adenocarcinoma. Experimental Design: In the discovery phase, we profiled the mRNA expression of each candidate gene using genome-wide microarrays in 52 paired lung adenocarcinoma and adjacent normal tissues. In the training phase, tissue microarrays and LASSO Cox regression analysis were applied to further screen candidate molecules in 189 patients, and we developed a predictive signature. In the validation phase, one internal cohort and two external cohorts were used to validate our novel prognostic signature. Results: Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis based on whole-genome microarrays indicated that the Wnt/β-catenin pathway was activated in “driver gene–negative” lung adenocarcinoma. Furthermore, the Wnt/β-catenin pathway–based gene expression profiles revealed 39 transcripts differentially expressed. Finally, a Wnt/β-catenin pathway–based CSDW signature comprising 4 genes (CTNNB1 or β-catenin, SOX9, DVL3, and Wnt2b) was developed to classify patients into high-risk and low-risk groups in the training cohort. Patients with high-risk scores in the training cohort had shorter overall survival [HR, 10.42; 6.46–16.79; P & lt; 0.001) than patients with low-risk scores. Conclusions: The CSDW signature is a reliable prognostic tool and may represent genes that are potential drug targets for “driver gene–negative” lung adenocarcinoma.

    Abstract: Purpose: We established a CT-derived approach to achieve accurate progression-free survival (PFS) prediction to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) therapy in multicenter, stage IV EGFR-mutated non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Experimental Design: A total of 1,032 CT-based phenotypic characteristics were extracted according to the intensity, shape, and texture of NSCLC pretherapy images. On the basis of these CT features extracted from 117 stage IV EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients, a CT-based phenotypic signature was proposed using a Cox regression model with LASSO penalty for the survival risk stratification of EGFR-TKI therapy. The signature was validated using two independent cohorts (101 and 96 patients, respectively). The benefit of EGFR-TKIs in stratified patients was then compared with another stage-IV EGFR-mutant NSCLC cohort only treated with standard chemotherapy (56 patients). Furthermore, an individualized prediction model incorporating the phenotypic signature and clinicopathologic risk characteristics was proposed for PFS prediction, and also validated by multicenter cohorts. Results: The signature consisted of 12 CT features demonstrated good accuracy for discriminating patients with rapid and slow progression to EGFR-TKI therapy in three cohorts (HR: 3.61, 3.77, and 3.67, respectively). Rapid progression patients received EGFR TKIs did not show significant difference with patients underwent chemotherapy for progression-free survival benefit (P = 0.682). Decision curve analysis revealed that the proposed model significantly improved the clinical benefit compared with the clinicopathologic-based characteristics model (P & lt; 0.0001). Conclusions: The proposed CT-based predictive strategy can achieve individualized prediction of PFS probability to EGFR-TKI therapy in NSCLCs, which holds promise of improving the pretherapy personalized management of TKIs.

    Targeting the KIF4A/AR Axis to Reverse Endocrine Therapy Resistance in Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer
    American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) ; 2020

    In: Clinical Cancer Research, American Association for Cancer Research (AACR), Vol. 26, No. 6 ( 2020-03-15), p. 1516-1528
    Abstract: Emerging evidence indicates that castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is often driven by constitutively active androgen receptor (AR) or its V7 splice variant (AR-V7) and commonly becomes resistant to endocrine therapy. The aim of this work is to evaluate the function of a kinesin protein, KIF4A, in regulating AR/AR-V7 in prostate cancer endocrine therapy resistance. Experimental Design: We examined KIF4A expression in clinical prostate cancer specimens by IHC. Regulated pathways were investigated by qRT-PCR, immunoblot analysis, immunoprecipitation, and luciferase reporter and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays. A series of functional analyses were conducted in cell lines and xenograft models. Results: Examination of the KIF4A protein and mRNA levels in patients with prostate cancer showed that increased expression of KIF4A was positively correlated with androgen receptor (AR) levels. Patients with lower tumor KIF4A expression had improved overall survival and disease-free survival. Mechanistically, KIF4A and AR form an auto-regulatory positive feedback loop in prostate cancer: KIF4A binds AR and AR-V7 and prevents CHIP-mediated AR and AR-V7 degradation; AR binds the promoter region of KIF4A and activates its transcription. KIF4A promotes castration-sensitive and castration-resistant prostate cancer cell growth through AR- and AR-V7-dependent signaling. Furthermore, KIF4A expression is upregulated in enzalutamide-resistant prostate cancer cells, and KIF4A knockdown effectively reverses enzalutamide resistance and enhances the sensitivity of CRPC cells to endocrine therapy. Conclusions: These findings indicate that KIF4A plays an important role in the progression of CRPC and serves as a crucial determinant of the resistance of CRPC to endocrine therapy.

    Abstract: Camrelizumab, an mAb against programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1), plus nab-paclitaxel exhibited promising antitumor activity in refractory metastatic immunomodulatory triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Famitinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting VEGFR2, PDGFR, and c-kit. We aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of a novel combination of famitinib, camrelizumab, and nab-paclitaxel in advanced immunomodulatory TNBC. Patients and Methods: This open-label, single-arm, phase II study enrolled patients with previously untreated, advanced, immunomodulatory TNBC (CD8 IHC staining ≥10%). Eligible patients received 20 mg of oral famitinib on days 1 to 28, 200 mg of i.v. camrelizumab on days 1 and 15, and i.v. nab-paclitaxel 100 mg/m2 on days 1, 8, and 15 in 4-week cycles. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR), as assessed by investigators per RECIST v1.1. Key secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), duration of response (DOR), safety, and exploratory biomarkers. Results: Forty-eight patients were enrolled and treated. Median follow-up was 17.0 months (range, 8.7–24.3). Confirmed ORR was 81.3% [95% confidence interval (CI), 70.2–92.3], with five complete and 34 partial responses. Median PFS was 13.6 months (95% CI, 8.4–18.8), and median DOR was 14.9 months [95% CI, not estimable (NE)–NE] . Median OS was not reached. No treatment-related deaths were reported. Among 30 patients with IHC, 13 (43.3%) were programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1)–negative, and PD-L1 was associated with favorable response. PKD1 and KAT6A somatic mutations were associated with therapy response. Conclusions: The triplet regimen was efficacious and well tolerated in previously untreated, advanced, immunomodulatory TNBC. The randomized controlled FUTURE-SUPER trial is under way to validate our findings. See related commentary by Salgado and Loi, p. 2728

    American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) ; 2016

    Abstract: Purpose: Somatic mutations in the tyrosine kinase domain of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) may be an alternative mechanism to HER2 activation and can affect the sensitivity toward HER2-targeted therapies. We aimed to investigate the prevalence, clinicopathologic characteristics, and functional relevance of novel HER2 mutations in breast cancer. Experimental Design: We performed Sanger sequencing of all exons of the HER2 gene in 1,248 primary tumors and 18 paired metastatic samples. Novel HER2 mutations were functionally characterized. Results: The total HER2 somatic mutation rate was 2.24% (28/1,248). Of the seven novel HER2 mutations, L768S and V773L were only detected in HER2-negative tumors, whereas K753E was found in HER2-positive disease. L768S and V773L mutations exhibited a significant increase in tyrosine kinase–specific activity and strongly increased the phosphorylation of signaling proteins in various cell lines. Xenograft experiments showed that NIH3T3 cells bearing the L768S and V773L mutations displayed more rapid growth. MCF10A, BT474, and MDA-MB-231 cells bearing the K753E mutation were resistant to lapatinib, but could be inhibited by neratinib. Finally, comparison of HER2 mutations in 18 pairs of primary and metastatic lesions revealed that the drug-resistant HER2 mutations (K753E and L755S) were enriched in metastatic lesions. Conclusions: HER2-negative breast cancer with activating mutations can benefit from HER2-targeted therapies. Meanwhile, mutations in the HER2 kinase domain might be a key mechanism of resistance to HER2-targeted therapy, and irreversible tyrosine kinase inhibitors such as neratinib may offer alternative treatment options.

    MicroRNA-200a Promotes Anoikis Resistance and Metastasis by Targeting YAP1 in Human Breast Cancer
    American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) ; 2013

    In: Clinical Cancer Research, American Association for Cancer Research (AACR), Vol. 19, No. 6 ( 2013-03-15), p. 1389-1399
    Abstract: Purpose: The process of metastases involves the dissociation of cells from the primary tumor, penetration into the basement membrane, invasion, and exiting from the vasculature to seed and colonize distant tissues. miR-200a is involved in this multistep metastatic cascade. This study aimed to test the hypothesis that miR-200a promotes metastasis through increased anoikis resistance in breast cancer. Experimental Design: Breast cancer cells transfected with mimic or inhibitor for miR-200a were assayed for anoikis in vitro. miR-200a expression was assessed by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Luciferase assays, colony formation assays, and animal studies were conducted to identify the targets of miR-200a and the mechanism by which it promotes anoikis resistance. Results: We found that overexpression of miR-200a promotes whereas inhibition of miR-200a suppresses anoikis resistance in breast cancer cells. We identified Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) as a novel target of miR-200a. Our data showed that targeting of YAP1 by miR-200a resulted in decreased expression of proapoptotic proteins, which leads to anoikis resistance. Overexpression of miR-200a protected tumor cells from anoikis and promoted metastases in vivo. Furthermore, knockdown of YAP1 phenocopied the effects of miR-200a overexpression, whereas restoration of YAP1 in miR-200a overexpressed breast cancer cells reversed the effects of miR-200a on anoikis and metastasis. Remarkably, we found that YAP1 expression was inversely correlated with miR-200a expression in breast cancer clinical specimens, and miR-200a expression was associated with distant metastasis in patients with breast cancer. Conclusions: Our data suggest that miR-200a functions as anoikis suppressor and contributes to metastasis in breast cancer. Clin Cancer Res; 19(6); 1389–99. ©2013 AACR.

    Targeting NAD+/PARP DNA Repair Pathway as a Novel Therapeutic Approach to SDHB -Mutated Cluster I Pheochromocytoma and Paraganglioma
    American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) ; 2018

    Abstract: Purpose: Cluster I pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PCPGs) tend to develop malignant transformation, tumor recurrence, and multiplicity. Transcriptomic profiling suggests that cluster I PCPGs and other related tumors exhibit distinctive changes in the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, the hypoxia signaling pathway, mitochondrial electron transport chain, and methylation status, suggesting that therapeutic regimen might be optimized by targeting these signature molecular pathways. Experimental Design: In the present study, we investigated the molecular signatures in clinical specimens from cluster I PCPGs in comparison with cluster II PCPGs that are related to kinase signaling and often present as benign tumors. Results: We found that cluster I PCPGs develop a dependency to mitochondrial complex I, evidenced by the upregulation of complex I components and enhanced NADH dehydrogenation. Alteration in mitochondrial function resulted in strengthened NAD+ metabolism, here considered as a key mechanism of chemoresistance, particularly, of succinate dehydrogenase subunit B (SDHB)-mutated cluster I PCPGs via the PARP1/BER DNA repair pathway. Combining a PARP inhibitor with temozolomide, a conventional chemotherapeutic agent, not only improved cytotoxicity but also reduced metastatic lesions, with prolonged overall survival of mice with SDHB knockdown PCPG allograft. Conclusions: In summary, our findings provide novel insights into an effective strategy for targeting cluster I PCPGs, especially those with SDHB mutations.
