Project description:Wilms tumor (WT) is the most common renal malignancy of childhood. Despite improvements in the overall survival, relapse occurs in ~15% of patients with favorable histology WT (FHWT). Half of these patients will succumb to their disease. Identifying novel targeted therapies in a systematic manner remains challenging in part due to the lack of faithful preclinical in vitro models. We established ten short-term patient-derived WT cell lines and characterized these models using low-coverage whole genome sequencing, whole exome sequencing and RNA-sequencing, which demonstrated that these ex-vivo models faithfully recapitulate WT biology. We then performed targeted RNAi and CRISPR-Cas9 loss-of-function screens and identified the nuclear export genes (XPO1 and KPNB1) as strong vulnerabilities. We observed that these models are sensitive to nuclear export inhibition using the FDA approved therapeutic agent, selinexor (KPT-330). Selinexor treatment of FHWT suppressed TRIP13 expression, which was required for survival. We further identified in vitro and in vivo synergy between selinexor and doxorubicin, a chemotherapy used in high risk FHWT. Taken together, we identified XPO1 inhibition with selinexor as a potential therapeutic option to treat FHWTs and in combination with doxorubicin, leads to durable remissions in vivo.

Project description:The gene expression patterns of favorable histology Wilms tumors (FHWT) that relapsed were compared with those that did not relapse using oligonucleotide arrays Description: 250 FHWT of all stages enriched for relapses treated on National Wilms Tumor Study 5 passed quality parameters and were suitable for analysis using oligonucleotide arrays. Relapse risk stratification utilized Support Vector Machine; two and ten fold cross-validation was applied. The number of genes associated with relapse was less than that predicted by chance alone for 106 patients (32 relapses) with stages I and II FHWT and no further analyses were performed. This number was greater than expected by chance for 76 local stage III patients. Cross validation including an additional 68 local stage III patients (total 144 patients, 53 relapses) demonstrated that classifiers for relapse composed of 50 genes were associated with a median sensitivity of 47%, specificity 70%, and total error rate of 38%. Analysis of genes differentially expressed in relapse patients revealed apoptosis, Wnt signaling, IGF pathway, and epigenetic modification to be mechanisms important in relapse. Potential therapeutic targets include FRAP/MTOR and CD40. Keywords: Classification by microarray analysis

Project description:We report the most common single-nucleotide substitution/deletion mutations in favorable histology Wilms tumors (FHWTs) to occur within SIX1/2 (7% of 534 tumors) and microRNA processing genes (miRNAPGs) DGCR8 and DROSHA (15% of 534 tumors). Comprehensive analysis of 77 FHWTs indicates that tumors with SIX1/2 and/or miRNAPG mutations show a pre-induction metanephric mesenchyme gene expression pattern and are significantly associated with both perilobar nephrogenic rests and 11p15 imprinting aberrations. Significantly decreased expression of mature Let-7a and the miR-200 family (responsible for mesenchymal-to-epithelial transition) in miRNAPG mutant tumors is associated with an undifferentiated blastemal histology. The combination of SIX and miRNAPG mutations in the same tumor is associated with evidence of RAS activation and a higher rate of relapse and death.

Project description:ABSTRACT Introduction and Objectives Wilms’ tumor (WT) relapse occurs in 15% of patients. We aim to investigate the association between the expression of several genetic markers and WT relapse risk. Materials and methods The study included 51 children treated for WT at a tertiary center between 2001 and 2019: 23 patients had disease relapse (group A) and 28 remained relapse-free after at least 2 years of follow-up (group B). Patients with syndromic, bilateral synchronous or anaplastic WT were excluded. Autologous renal tissue from 20 patients served as control. Total RNA was isolated from tumor tissue and control. Gene expression levels of WT1, HIF1α, b-FGF, c-MYC and SLC22A18 were assessed using quantitative RT-PCR and normalized to GAPDH. Immunohistochemical staining for WT1 and gene expression levels were compared between the study groups. Results Median patient age was 3 (IQR = 2–5) years and 36 (70.6%) had stage I disease. Baseline characteristics were similar between study groups. Relapse occurred at a median of 6.8 (2.8–24.7) months, predominantly in the lungs (11/23, 47.8%). Tumors that relapsed expressed significantly higher levels of WT1, HIF1α, b-FGF and c-MYC and lower levels of SLC22A18 (p < 0.001). Strong immunohistochemical staining for WT1 was seen in 73.9% of group A and 14.29% of group B (p < 0.001). These associations retained statistical significance irrespective of patient and tumor characteristics. Conclusions Higher expression levels of WT1, HIF1 α, b-FGF and c-MYC and lower level of SLC22A18 are associated with increased risk of WT relapse. These genetic markers can serve as future prognostic predictors and help stratify patients for treatment.

Project description:PurposeStage III designation in NWTS-5 (National Wilms Tumor Study-5) was determined by four pathologic criteria: positive lymph nodes (LNs), peritoneal implants, residual disease, and tumor rupture. The objective of this study was to determine the prognostic significance of each of the stage III criteria.Patients and methodsChildren with stage III Wilms tumor (WT) treated in NWTS-5 were assessed for event-free (EFS) and overall survival (OS). Sites of relapse and molecular status of tumors are reported. EFS and OS are reported 8 years after diagnosis.ResultsThere were 569 patients with local stage III favorable-histology (FH) WT in this analysis, of whom 109 had overall stage IV disease. LN involvement alone was the most frequent criterion for stage III designation (38%), followed by microscopic residual disease alone (20%), microscopic residual disease and LN involvement (14%), and spill or soilage alone (9%). The 8-year EFS and OS estimates for all patients with local stage III FHWT were 82% and 91%, respectively. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that both LN involvement (relative risk, 1.89; P = .005) and microscopic residual disease (relative risk, 1.87; P = .007) were predictive of EFS, and OS results were similar. There was no apparent difference in pattern of relapse according to stage III subtype. The rate of loss of heterozygosity was higher (6%) for those with positive LNs than for those without (2%; P = .05).ConclusionLN involvement and microscopic residual are the stage III criteria highly predictive of EFS and OS for patients with stage III FHWT. It is possible that in future studies, patients with different stage III criteria may receive different therapies.

Project description:Across many cancer types in adults, upregulation of the nuclear-to-cytoplasmic transport protein Exportin-1 (XPO1) correlates with poor outcome and responsiveness to selinexor, an FDA-approved XPO1 inhibitor. Similar data are emerging in childhood cancers, for which selinexor is being evaluated in early phase clinical studies. Using proteomic profiling of primary tumor material from patients with high-risk neuroblastoma, as well as gene expression profiling from independent cohorts, we have demonstrated that XPO1 overexpression correlates with poor patient prognosis. Neuroblastoma cell lines are also sensitive to selinexor in the low nanomolar range. Based on these findings and knowledge that bortezomib, a proteasome inhibitor, blocks degradation of XPO1 cargo proteins, we hypothesized that combination treatment with selinexor and bortezomib would synergistically inhibit neuroblastoma cellular proliferation. We observed that selinexor promoted nuclear retention of IkB and that bortezomib augmented the ability of selinexor to induce cell-cycle arrest and cell death by apoptosis. This synergy was abrogated through siRNA knockdown of IkB. The synergistic effect of combining selinexor and bortezomib in vitro provides rationale for further investigation of this combination treatment for patients with high-risk neuroblastoma.

Project description:Aberrant nuclear protein transport, often observed in cancer, causes mislocalization-dependent inactivation of critical cellular proteins. Earlier we showed that overexpression of exportin 1 is linked to higher grade and Gleason score in metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). We also showed that a selective inhibitor of nuclear export (SINE) selinexor and second generation eltanexor (KPT-8602) could suppress mCRPC growth, reduce androgen receptor (AR), and re-sensitize to androgen deprivation therapy. Here we evaluated the combination of KPT-8602 with PARP inhibitors (PARPi) olaparib, veliparib and rucaparib in 22rv1 mCRPC cells. KPT-8602 synergized with PARPi (CI < 1) at pharmacologically relevant concentrations. KPT-8602-PARPi showed superior induction of apoptosis compared to single agent treatment and caused up-regulation of pro-apoptotic genes BAX, TP53 and CASPASE 9. Mechanistically, KPT-8602-PARPi suppressed AR, ARv7, PSA and AR targets FOXA1 and UBE2C. Western blot analysis revealed significant down-regulation of AR, ARv7, UBE2C, SAM68, FOXA1 and upregulation of cleaved PARP and cleaved CASPASE 3. KPT-8602 with or without olaparib was shown to reduce homologous recombination-regulated DNA damage response targets including BRCA1, BRCA2, CHEK1, EXO1, BLM, RAD51, LIG1, XRCC3 and RMI2. Taken together, this study revealed the therapeutic potential of a novel combination of KPT-8602 and PARP inhibitors for the treatment of mCRPC.

Project description:Over the last decade, sequencing of primary tumors has clarified the genetic underpinnings of Wilms tumor but has not affected therapy, outcome, or toxicity. We now sharpen our focus on relapse samples from the umbrella AREN03B2 study. We show that over 40% of relapse samples contain mutations in SIX1 or genes of the MYCN network, drivers of progenitor proliferation. Not previously seen in large studies of primary Wilms tumors, DIS3 and TERT are now identified as recurrently mutated. The analysis of primary-relapse tumor pairs suggests that 11p15 loss of heterozygosity (and other copy number changes) and mutations in WT1 and MLLT1 typically occur early, but mutations in SIX1, MYCN, and WTX are late developments in some individuals. Most strikingly, 75% of relapse samples had gain of 1q, providing strong conceptual support for studying circulating tumor DNA in clinical trials to better detect 1q gain earlier and monitor response.

Project description:The gene expression patterns of favorable histology Wilms tumors (FHWT) that relapsed were compared with those that did not relapse using oligonucleotide arrays; Description: 250 FHWT of all stages enriched for relapses treated on National Wilms Tumor Study 5 passed quality parameters and were suitable for analysis using oligonucleotide arrays. Relapse risk stratification utilized Support Vector Machine; two and ten fold cross-validation was applied. The number of genes associated with relapse was less than that predicted by chance alone for 106 patients (32 relapses) with stages I and II FHWT and no further analyses were performed. This number was greater than expected by chance for 76 local stage III patients. Cross validation including an additional 68 local stage III patients (total 144 patients, 53 relapses) demonstrated that classifiers for relapse composed of 50 genes were associated with a median sensitivity of 47%, specificity 70%, and total error rate of 38%. Analysis of genes differentially expressed in relapse patients revealed apoptosis, Wnt signaling, IGF pathway, and epigenetic modification to be mechanisms important in relapse. Potential therapeutic targets include FRAP/MTOR and CD40. Experiment Overall Design: 144 stage 3 FHWT, with fifty-three relapses (cases) and ninety-one non-relapses (controls) with a minimum of three years follow-up, included all relapses and a 30% random selection of non-relapses for which frozen tumor tissue was available who passed all quality control parameters. The NWTS-5 protocol was approved by the review boards of institutions that registered patients. Histological diagnosis and local stage were confirmed by central review. Experiment Overall Design: Quality control steps taken: Experiment Overall Design: 1. Samples were snap frozen immediately following surgery and were mailed on dry ice to the Tumor Bank and retained at -80C. Experiment Overall Design: 2. Frozen sections were evaluated histologically and tumors with less than 80% viable tumor cellularity were excluded. Experiment Overall Design: 3. Array images were assessed by eye to confirm scanner alignment and the absence of significant bubbles or scratches. Experiment Overall Design: 4. Samples for which the 3'/5' ratios for GAPDH were greater than 3.2 were excluded. Experiment Overall Design: 5. The BioB spike controls were confirmed as present; BioC, BioD and cre were confirmed as increasing intensity. Experiment Overall Design: 6. When scaled to a target intensity of 2500, scaling factors were between 12 and 53; background levels were 34 â 115: Q values were 1.3 â 3.7 and mean intensities were within acceptable limits. Experiment Overall Design: 7. The range of percent present calls was from 38% to 52%. Experiment Overall Design: 8. Verification of gene expression was performed utilizing quantitative RT-PCR for five genes. Â Â Experiment Overall Design: Statistical Analysis: Positional-dependent-nearest-neighbor model (PDNN) software was used to translate the scanned images into expression analysis files and to normalize the data across all arrays (http://odin.mdacc.tmc.edu/~zhangli/PerfectMatch/). Genes with maximum expression less than a log scale of 6 across all tumors and Affymetrix control genes were excluded, resulting in 20,931 probe sets for analysis. Support Vector Machine (SVM) as developed by Chang and Lin (http://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/~cjlin/libsvm) and implemented in an R software package, e1071 was chosen for relapse risk stratification using the p-value of the t-test comparison between case and control to select the genes. Using all 144 tumors, 109 genes were identified with p-value <0.001 and are provided in the data table labelled "t-test comparison between case and control" (ie, Supplemental table 2, in related publication)." Two and ten fold cross validations were utilized to investigate the ability of classifiers established in randomly selected training set to predict relapse in an independent test set comprised of the remaining tumors. For two-fold cross validation, the dataset was randomly divided 500 times into training and corresponding test sets of equal size, each including half the patients who relapsed. A classifier for relapse was identified for each training set and used to assign tumors in the corresponding test set to low and high risk categories. The training and test sets were then swapped. The number of top K genes in each classifier evaluated ranged from 1-150. Therefore, a total of 150,000 different classifiers were developed, one for each value of K from 1-150, for each of the 1,000 (500*2) training sets. For ten-fold cross validation the dataset was randomly divided 500 times into ten groups of approximately equal size. Each group included approximately the same number of relapses. For each such group, a classifier was built with the remaining 9/10 of the samples and then used to categorize tumors in the group as low or high risk; the process was repeated until all tumor samples were categorized as low or high risk. For all the cross validation procedures, to avoid gene-selection bias, classifiers were completely rebuilt in each cross validation iteration.

Project description:Through exome sequencing, we identified six individuals with biallelic loss-of-function mutations in TRIP13. All six developed Wilms tumor. Constitutional mosaic aneuploidies, microcephaly, developmental delay and seizures, which are features of mosaic variegated aneuploidy (MVA) syndrome, were more variably present. Through functional studies, we show that TRIP13-mutant patient cells have no detectable TRIP13 and have substantial impairment of the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC), leading to a high rate of chromosome missegregation. Accurate segregation, as well as SAC proficiency, is rescued by restoring TRIP13 function. Individuals with biallelic TRIP13 or BUB1B mutations have a high risk of embryonal tumors, and here we show that their cells display severe SAC impairment. MVA due to biallelic CEP57 mutations, or of unknown cause, is not associated with embryonal tumors and cells from these individuals show minimal SAC deficiency. These data provide insights into the complex relationships between aneuploidy and carcinogenesis.
