Project description:Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) is the most common haematological malignancy in developed countries. Ibrutinib (PCI-32765), a specific and irreversible inhibitor of Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) represents a major step forward in the treatment of CLL, but cases of resistance are emerging. We have undertaken a detailed analysis of the changes happening to the chromatin structure in CLL cells from two patients on ibrutinib and showing disease progression. ChIP-seq has been performed for H3K4me3, H3K27ac and H3K27me3. We observed chromatin alterations independent of the disease progression. Raw data is available in EGA under controlled access with accession EGAD00001005220

Project description:Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a malignant lymphoproliferative disorder characterized by the accumulation of small mature B cells in blood and secondary lymphoid tissues. Novel drugs, such as the Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor ibrutinib, have greatly improved survival expectations of CLL patients, nevertheless acquired drug resistance represents a major challenge the molecular mechanisms of which have not been elucidated yet. In order to fill this knowledge gap, we generated a mouse model of ibrutinib resistance by treating mice upon adoptive transfer of Eµ-TCL1 leukemia (TCL1-CLL) continuously with ibrutinib. After an initial response to the treatment, relapse under therapy occurs with an aggressive outgrowth of the malignant cells, resembling observations in patients. To unravel relapse mechanism, we performed transcriptome and proteome analyses of sorted TCL1-CLL cells both during treatment and after relapse. Comparative analysis of these omics layers suggested alterations in the proteasome activity as a driver of ibrutinib resistance. Accordingly, we showed that preclinical treatment with the irreversible proteasome inhibitor (PI) carfilzomib administered upon ibrutinib resistance prolonged survival of mice, thus acting as salvage therapy. Longitudinal proteomic analysis of CLL patients with ibrutinib resistance identified deregulation in protein post-translational modifications. In addition, CLL cells from ibrutinib-resistant patients effectively responded to several PIs in co-culture assays. Altogether, our results from orthogonal omics approaches identified proteasome inhibition as potentially attractive innovative salvage treatment option for CLL patients resistant or refractory to ibrutinib.

Project description:Ibrutinib, an irreversible Bruton Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) inhibitor, has revolutionized Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) treatment, but resistances to ibrutinib have emerged in relation or not to BTK mutations. Evolution patterns of CLL before and after ibrutinib therapy are often focused only on leukemic cells but must be investigated in the context of the CLL microenvironment. Single cell RNA-seq and related technologies allow a deeper characterization of cancer and normal cells. We therefore investigated whether ibrutinib treatment drives molecular changes in CLL. Here, we report the monitoring of a CLL patient under ibrutinib treatment using Cellular Indexing of Transcriptomes and Epitopes by sequencing (CITE-Seq) technology. We report that the short clinical relapse of this patient, driven by BTK mutation, is associated with intra-clonal heterogeneity and transcriptional and phenotypical modifications in both B leukemic and immune cells. These results open new therapeutic strategies for ibrutinib-refractory CLL patients.

Project description:Continuous treatment with ibrutinib not only exerts tumor control but also enhances T cell function in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). We conducted longitudinal multiomics analyses in samples from CLL patients receiving ibrutinib upfront to identify potential adaptive mechanisms to Bruton Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) inhibition during the first 12 months of continuous therapy. Wefound that in T cells, ibrutinib reduced the expression of exhaustion markers, the proportion of Tregs and Tfh cells, as well as expression of genes related to activation, proliferation, differentiation, and metabolism. In CLL cells, we observed a downregulation of immunosuppression, adhesion, and migration mechanisms. Adaptation at molecular level, characterized by an increase in cancer cell fraction of CLL cells with mutated driver genes, was observed in around half of the patients. Interestingly, BTK C481S mutations were detected as early as after 6 months of treatment, particularly enriched in subsets of malignant cells retaining migrative capacity. These CLL cells with potential migrative capacity under ibrutinib also exhibited a distinct transcriptomic profile including upregulation of mTOR-AKT and Myc pathways. We identified high expression of TMBIM6 as a potential novel independent poor prognostic factor. Of note, BIA, a TMBIM6 antagonist, induced CLL cell apoptosis and synergized with ibrutinib. In summary, our comprehensive multi-omics analysis of CLL patients undergoing ibrutinib therapy has unveiled early immunomodulatory effects on T cells and adaptative mechanisms in CLL cells. These findings can contribute to the identification of resistance mechanisms and the discovery of novel therapeutic targets.

Project description:The clinical efficacy displayed by ibrutinib in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) has been challenged by the frequent emergence of resistant clones. The ibrutinib target, Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK), is essential for B-cell receptor signaling, and most resistant cases carry mutations in BTK or PLCG2, a downstream effector target of BTK. Recent findings show that MI-2, a small molecule inhibitor of the para-caspase MALT1, is effective in preclinical models of another type of BCR pathway-dependent lymphoma. We therefore studied the activity of MI-2 against CLL and ibrutinib-resistant CLL. Treatment of CLL cells in vitro with MI-2 inhibited MALT1 proteolytic activity reduced BCR and NF-κB signaling, inhibited nuclear translocation of RelB and p50, and decreased Bcl-xL levels. MI-2 selectively induced dose and time-dependent apoptosis in CLL cells, sparing normal B lymphocytes. Furthermore, MI-2 abrogated survival signals provided by stromal cells and BCR cross-linking and was effective against CLL cells harboring features associated with poor outcomes, including 17p deletion and unmutated IGHV Notably, MI-2 was effective against CLL cells collected from patients harboring mutations conferring resistance to ibrutinib. Overall, our findings provide a preclinical rationale for the clinical development of MALT1 inhibitors in CLL, in particular for ibrutinib-resistant forms of this disease.

Project description:Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is characterized by substantial clinical heterogeneity, despite relatively few genetic alterations. To provide a basis for studying epigenome deregulation in CLL, we established genome-wide chromatin accessibility maps for 88 CLL samples from 55 patients using the ATAC-seq assay, and we also performed ChIPmentation and RNA-seq profiling for ten representative samples. Based on the resulting dataset, we devised and applied a bioinformatic method that links chromatin profiles to clinical annotations. Our analysis identified sample-specific variation on top of a shared core of CLL regulatory regions. IGHV mutation status â which distinguishes the two major subtypes of CLL â was accurately predicted by the chromatin profiles, and gene regulatory networks inferred for IGHV-mutated vs. IGHV-unmutated samples identified characteristic differences between these two disease subtypes. In summary, we found widespread heterogeneity in the CLL chromatin landscape, established a community resource for studying epigenome deregulation in leukemia, and demonstrated the feasibility of chromatin accessibility mapping in cancer cohorts and clinical research. Genome-wide profiling of chromatin states and gene expression levels in 88 CLL samples from 55 individuals gave rise to 88 ATAC-seq profiles, 40 ChIPmentation profiles (10 samples, each with 3 different antibodies and matched immunoglobulin control), and 10 RNA-seq profiles. Raw sequence data has been deposited at the EBI's European Genome-phenome Archive (EGA) under the accession number EGAS00001001821 (controlled access to protect patient privacy).

Project description:Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors such as ibrutinib represent an effective strategy for treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), although ~30% of patients eventually undergo disease progression. Here we investigated the long-term modulation of the CXCR4dim/CD5bright proliferative fraction (PF) and the CXCR4bright/CD5dim resting fraction (RF) in CLL samples, and their correlation with therapeutic outcome and emergence of ibrutinib resistance. Longitudinal tracking by flow cytometry revealed that PF, initially suppressed by ibrutinib, reappeared upon early disease progression suggesting that PF evaluation could represent a sensitive and specific marker of CLL progression upon ibrutinib treatment. Transcriptomic analyses of PF at progression revealed similar proliferation signatures between pre- and post-treatment PF, demonstrating the emergence upon progression of a newly proliferating cell population.
