Mesenchymal stem cell-derived interleukin-28 drives the selection of apoptosis resistant bone metastatic prostate cancer.

ABSTRACT: Bone metastatic prostate cancer (PCa) promotes mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) recruitment and their differentiation into osteoblasts. However, the effects of bone-marrow derived MSCs on PCa cells are less explored. Here, we report MSC-derived interleukin-28 (IL-28) triggers prostate cancer cell apoptosis via IL-28 receptor alpha (IL-28R?)-STAT1 signaling. However, chronic exposure to MSCs drives the selection of prostate cancer cells that are resistant to IL-28-induced apoptosis and therapeutics such as docetaxel. Further, MSC-selected/IL-28-resistant prostate cancer cells grow at accelerated rates in bone. Acquired resistance to apoptosis is PCa cell intrinsic, and is associated with a shift in IL-28R? signaling via STAT1 to STAT3. Notably, STAT3 ablation or inhibition impairs MSC-selected prostate cancer cell growth and survival. Thus, bone marrow MSCs drive the emergence of therapy-resistant bone metastatic prostate cancer yet this can be disabled by targeting STAT3.

Project description:BackgroundBone biopsies in metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients can be challenging. This study's objective was to prospectively validate a multiparametric bone MRI (mpBMRI) algorithm to facilitate target lesion selection in mCRPC patients with sclerotic bone disease for subsequent CT-guided bone biopsies.Methods20 CT-guided bone biopsies were prospectively performed between 02/2021 and 11/2021 in 17 mCRPC patients with only sclerotic bone disease. Biopsy targets were selected based on MRI, including diffusion-weighted (DWI) and T1-weighted VIBE Dixon MR images, allowing for calculation of the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and the relative fat-fraction (rFF), respectively. Bone marrow with high DWI signal, ADC < 1100 µm2/s and rFF < 20% was the preferred biopsy target. Tumor content and NGS-feasibility was assessed by a pathologist. Prognostic routine laboratory blood parameters, target lesion size, biopsy tract length, visual CT density, means of HU, ADC and rFF were compared between successful and unsuccessful biopsies (p < 0.05 = significant).ResultsOverall, 17/20 (85%) biopsies were tumor-positive and next-generation genomic sequencing (NGS) was feasible in 13/18 (72%) evaluated samples. Neither laboratory parameters, diameter, tract length nor visual CT density grading showed significant differences between a positive versus negative or NGS feasible versus non-feasible biopsy results (each p > 0.137). Lesion mean HU was 387 ± 187 HU in NGS feasible and 493 ± 218 HU in non-feasible biopsies (p = 0.521). For targets fulfilling all MRI selection algorithm criteria, 13/14 (93%) biopsies were tumor-positive and 10/12 (83%) provided NGS adequate tissue.ConclusionsMultiparametric bone MRI can facilitate target lesion selection for subsequent CT-guided bone biopsy in mCPRC patients with sclerotic metastases.Trial registrationCommittee for Clinical Research of the Royal Marsden Hospital registration number SE1220.

Project description:Enzalutamide is a novel antiandrogen with proven efficacy in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).To evaluate enzalutamide's effects on cancer and on androgens in blood and bone marrow, and associate these with clinical observations.In this prospective phase 2 study, 60 patients with bone mCRPC received enzalutamide 160mg orally daily and had transilial bone marrow biopsies before treatment and at 8 wk of treatment.Androgen signaling components (androgen receptor [AR], AR splice variant 7 (ARV7), v-ets avian erythroblastosis virus E26 oncogene homolog [ERG], cytochrome P450, family 17, subfamily A, polypeptide 1 [CYP17]) and molecules implicated in mCRPC progression (phospho-Met, phospho-Src, glucocorticoid receptor, Ki67) were assessed by immunohistochemistry; testosterone, cortisol, and androstenedione concentrations were assessed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry; AR copy number was assessed by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Descriptive statistics were applied.Median time to treatment discontinuation was 22 wk (95% confidence interval, 19.9-29.6). Twenty-two (37%) patients exhibited primary resistance to enzalutamide, discontinuing treatment within 4 mo. Maximal prostate-specific antigen (PSA) decline ? 50% and ? 90% occurred in 27 (45%) and 13 (22%) patients, respectively. Following 8 wk of treatment, bone marrow and circulating testosterone levels increased. Pretreatment tumor nuclear AR overexpression (> 75%) and CYP17 (> 10%) expression were associated with benefit (p = 0.018). AR subcellular localization shift from the nucleus was confirmed in eight paired samples (with PSA decline) of 23 evaluable paired samples. Presence of an ARV7 variant was associated with primary resistance to enzalutamide (p = 0.018). Limited patient numbers warrant further validation.The observed subcellular shift of AR from the nucleus and increased testosterone concentration provide the first evidence in humans that enzalutamide suppresses AR signaling while inducing an adaptive feedback. Persistent androgen signaling in mCRPC was predictive of benefit and ARV7 was associated with primary resistance.We report a first bone biopsy study in metastatic prostate cancer in humans that searched for predictors of outcome of enzalutamide therapy. Benefit is linked to a pretreatment androgen-signaling signature.ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT01091103.

Project description:PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase)/AKT and RAS/MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) pathway coactivation in the prostate epithelium promotes both epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), which is currently incurable. To study the dynamic regulation of the EMT process, we developed novel genetically defined cellular and in vivo model systems from which epithelial, EMT and mesenchymal-like tumor cells with Pten deletion and Kras activation can be isolated. When cultured individually, each population has the capacity to regenerate all three tumor cell populations, indicative of epithelial-mesenchymal plasticity. Despite harboring the same genetic alterations, mesenchymal-like tumor cells are resistant to PI3K and MAPK pathway inhibitors, suggesting that epigenetic mechanisms may regulate the EMT process, as well as dictate the heterogeneous responses of cancer cells to therapy. Among differentially expressed epigenetic regulators, the chromatin remodeling protein HMGA2 is significantly upregulated in EMT and mesenchymal-like tumors cells, as well as in human mCRPC. Knockdown of HMGA2, or suppressing HMGA2 expression with the histone deacetylase inhibitor LBH589, inhibits epithelial-mesenchymal plasticity and stemness activities in vitro and markedly reduces tumor growth and metastasis in vivo through successful targeting of EMT and mesenchymal-like tumor cells. Importantly, LBH589 treatment in combination with castration prevents mCRPC development and significantly prolongs survival following castration by enhancing p53 and androgen receptor acetylation and in turn sensitizing castration-resistant mesenchymal-like tumor cells to androgen deprivation therapy. Taken together, these findings demonstrate that cellular plasticity is regulated epigenetically, and that mesenchymal-like tumor cell populations in mCRPC that are resistant to conventional and targeted therapies can be effectively treated with the epigenetic inhibitor LBH589.
