The B-cell Receptor Autoantigen LRPAP1 Can Replace Variable Antibody Regions to Target Mantle Cell Lymphoma Cells.

ABSTRACT: Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) accounts for 5%-10% of all lymphomas. The disease's genetic hallmark is the t(11; 14)(q13; q32) translocation. In younger patients, the first-line treatment is chemoimmunotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation. Upon disease progression, novel and targeted agents such as the BTK inhibitor ibrutinib, the BCL-2 inhibitor venetoclax, or the combination of both are increasingly used, but even after allogeneic stem cell transplantation or CAR T-cell therapy, MCL remains incurable for most patients. Chronic antigenic stimulation of the B-cell receptor (BCR) is thought to be essential for the pathogenesis of many B-cell lymphomas. LRPAP1 has been identified as the autoantigenic BCR target in about 1/3 of all MCLs. Thus, LRPAP1 could be used to target MCL cells, however, there is currently no optimal therapeutic format to integrate LRPAP1. We have therefore integrated LRPAP1 into a concept termed BAR, for B-cell receptor antigens for reverse targeting. A bispecific BAR body was synthesized consisting of the lymphoma-BCR binding epitope of LRPAP1 and a single chain fragment targeting CD3 or CD16 to recruit/engage T or NK cells. In addition, a BAR body consisting of an IgG1 antibody and the lymphoma-BCR binding epitope of LRPAP1 replacing the variable regions was synthesized. Both BAR bodies mediated highly specific cytotoxic effects against MCL cells in a dose-dependent manner at 1-20 µg/mL. In conclusion, LRPAP1 can substitute variable antibody regions in different formats to function in a new therapeutic approach to treat MCL.

LRPAP1 autoantibodies in mantle cell lymphoma are associated with superior outcome.

Project description:Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor-related protein-associated protein 1 (LRPAP1) had been identified by B-cell receptor (BCR) expression cloning and subsequent protein array screening as a frequent and proliferation-inducing autoantigen of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). Of interest, high-titered and light chain-restricted LRPAP1 autoantibodies were detected in 8 of 28 patients with MCL. In the present study, LRPAP1 autoantibodies in sera of patients treated within the Younger and Elderly trials of the European MCL Network were analyzed regarding frequency, association with disease characteristics, and prognostic impact. LRPAP1 autoantibodies were detected in 41 (13%) of 312 evaluable patients with MCL. These LRPAP1 autoantibodies belonged predominantly to the immunoglobulin G (IgG) class and were clonally light chain restricted (27 with κ light chains, 14 patients with λ light chains). Titers ranged between 1:400 and 1:3200. The presence of LRPAP1 autoantibodies was not significantly associated with any baseline clinical characteristic, however, it was associated with a superior 5-year probability for failure-free survival (FFS) of 70% (95% confidence interval [CI], 57% to 87%) vs 51% (95% CI, 44% to 58%), P = .0052; and for overall survival (OS) of 93% (95% CI, 85% to 100%) vs 68% (95% CI, 62% to 74%), P = .0142. LRPAP1-seropositive patients had a Mantle Cell Lymphoma International Prognostic Index-adjusted hazard ratio for FFS of 0.48 (95% CI 0.27-0.83, P = .0083) and for OS of 0.47 (95% CI 0.24-0.94, P = .032). LRPAP1 autoantibodies were frequently detected in a large cohort of MCL patients treated within prospective multicenter clinical trials. Our results suggest better outcomes for LRPAP1-autoantibody seropositive patients.

BAFF receptor antibody for mantle cell lymphoma therapy.

Project description:Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an aggressive form of B cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and remains incurable under current treatment modalities. One of the main reasons for treatment failure is the development of drug resistance. Accumulating evidence suggests that B cell activating factor (BAFF) and BAFF receptor (BAFF-R) play an important role in the proliferation and survival of malignant B cells. High serum BAFF levels are often correlated with poor drug response and relapse in MCL patients. Our study shows that BAFF-R is expressed on both MCL patient cells and cell lines. BAFF-R knockdown leads to MCL cell death showing the importance of BAFF-R signaling in MCL survival. Moderate knockdown of BAFF-R in MCL cells did not affect its viability, but sensitized them to cytarabine treatment in vitro and in vivo, with prolonged mice survival. Anti-BAFF-R antibody treatment promoted drug-induced MCL cell death. Conversely, the addition of recombinant BAFF (rhBAFF) to MCL cells protected them from cytarabine-induced apoptosis. We tested the efficacy of a humanized defucosylated ADCC optimized anti-BAFF-R antibody in killing MCL. Our data show both in vitro and in vivo efficacy of this antibody for MCL therapy. To conclude, our data indicate that BAFF/BAFF-R signaling is crucial for survival and involved in drug resistance of MCL. Targeting BAFF-R using BAFF-R antibody might be a promising therapeutical strategy to treat MCL patients resistant to chemotherapy.

A Novel Antibody-Toxin Conjugate to Treat Mantle Cell Lymphoma.

Project description:Matriptase is a transmembrane serine protease, synthesized as an inactive single-chain zymogen on the endoplasmic reticulum and transported to the plasma membrane. Matriptase is activated in different epithelial and some B-cell malignancies and changes its conformation and activity is inhibited mainly by its endogenous inhibitor HAI-1. Activated matriptase plays a key role in tumor initiation as well as tumor progression, including invasiveness, and metastasis. To target the anti-mitotic toxin (monomethyl auristatin-E) to activated matriptase, a novel antibody to activated matriptase was conjugated with this toxin via a valine-citrulline-PABA linker. In a previous study, this antibody-toxin conjugate was found to be effective against triple negative breast cancer cell lines and xenografts, alone, or in combination with cisplatin (1). In this study, we examined the anti-tumor effect of the antibody toxin conjugate (ADC) against activated matriptase positive mantle cell lymphoma cell lines (JeKo-1, Maver, Mino, and Z138). This ADC was cytotoxic to these cell lines with IC50s between 5 and 14 μg/mL. The ADC also showed a dose dependent anti-tumor effect on the JeKo-1 xenograft in mice without toxicity.

Targeting CD83 in mantle cell lymphoma with anti-human CD83 antibody.

Project description:ObjectivesEffective antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) provide potent targeted cancer therapies. CD83 is expressed on activated immune cells including B cells and is a therapeutic target for Hodgkin lymphoma. Our objective was to determine CD83 expression on non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and its therapeutic potential to treat mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) which is currently an incurable NHL.MethodsWe analysed CD83 expression on MCL cell lines and the lymph node/bone marrow biopsies of MCL patients. We tested the killing effect of CD83 ADC in vitro and in an in vivo xenograft MCL mouse model.ResultsCD83 is expressed on MCL, and its upregulation is correlated with the nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) activation. CD83 ADC kills MCL in vitro and in vivo. Doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide (CP), which are included in the current treatment regimen for MCL, enhance the NF-κB activity and increase CD83 expression on MCL cell lines. The combination of CD83 ADC with doxorubicin and CP has synergistic killing effect of MCL.ConclusionThis study provides evidence that a novel immunotherapeutic agent CD83 ADC, in combination with chemotherapy, has the potential to enhance the efficacy of current treatments for MCL.

Lipid raft-mediated Akt signaling as a therapeutic target in mantle cell lymphoma.

Project description:Recent evidence shows that lipid raft membrane domains modulate both cell survival and death. Here, we have found that the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt signaling pathway is present in the lipid rafts of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) cells, and this location seems to be critical for full activation and MCL cell survival. The antitumor lipids (ATLs) edelfosine and perifosine target rafts, and we found that ATLs exerted in vitro and in vivo antitumor activity against MCL cells by displacing Akt as well as key regulatory kinases p-PDK1 (phosphatidylinositol-dependent protein kinase 1), PI3K and mTOR (mammalian TOR) from lipid rafts. This raft reorganization led to Akt dephosphorylation, while proapoptotic Fas/CD95 death receptor was recruited into rafts. Raft integrity was critical for Ser473 Akt phosphorylation. ATL-induced apoptosis appeared to correlate with the basal Akt phosphorylation status in MCL cell lines and primary cultures, and could be potentiated by the PI3K inhibitor wortmannin, or inhibited by the Akt activator pervanadate. Classical Akt inhibitors induced apoptosis in MCL cells. Microenvironmental stimuli, such as CD40 ligation or stromal cell contact, did not prevent ATL-induced apoptosis in MCL cell lines and patient-derived cells. These results highlight the role of raft-mediated PI3K/Akt signaling in MCL cell survival and chemotherapy, thus becoming a new target for MCL treatment.

Mantle Cell Lymphoma of Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue: A European Mantle Cell Lymphoma Network Study.

Project description:While classical nodal mantle cell lymphoma (cMCL) is often associated with involvement of multiple extranodal sites, isolated extranodal disease (ED) at the time of diagnosis is a rare event; data on the outcome of these forms are lacking. On behalf of the European MCL Network, we conducted a retrospective analysis on the clinical characteristics and outcomes of MCL presenting with isolated or predominant ED (MALT MCL). We collected data on 127 patients with MALT MCL diagnosed from 1998 to 2015: 78 patients (61%) were male with a median age of 65 years. The involved sites include: upper airways + Waldeyer ring (40; 32%), gastrointestinal tract (32; 25%), ocular adnexa (17; 13%), oral cavity and salivary glands (17; 13%) and others (13; 1%); 7 patients showed multiple extranodal sites. The median follow-up was 80 months (range: 6-182), 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) was 45% (95% CI: 35-54) and 5-year overall survival (OS) was 71% (95% CI: 62-79). In an explorative setting, we compared MALT MCL with a group of 128 cMCL patients: MALT MCL patients showed a significantly longer PFS and OS compared with nodal cMCL; with a median PFS of 4.5 years vs 2.8 years (p?=?0.001) and median OS of 9.8 years vs 6.9 years (p?=?0.018), respectively. Patients with MALT MCL at diagnosis showed a more favorable prognosis and indolent course than classical nodal type. This clinical variant of MCL should be acknowledged to avoid possible over-treatment.

The anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome: a new promising target in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma.

Project description:BackgroundThe aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) are characterised by a high proliferation rate. The anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) and its co-activators Cdc20 and Cdh1 represent an important checkpoint in mitosis. Here, the role of the APC/C and its co-activators is examined in DLBCL and MCL.MethodsThe expression and prognostic value of Cdc20 and Cdh1 was investigated using GEP data and immunohistochemistry. Moreover, the therapeutic potential of APC/C targeting was evaluated using the small-molecule inhibitor proTAME and the underlying mechanisms of action were investigated by western blot.ResultsWe demonstrated that Cdc20 is highly expressed in DLBCL and aggressive MCL, correlating with a poor prognosis in DLBCL. ProTAME induced a prolonged metaphase, resulting in accumulation of the APC/C-Cdc20 substrate cyclin B1, inactivation/degradation of Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL and caspase-dependent apoptosis. In addition, proTAME strongly enhanced the anti-lymphoma effect of the clinically relevant agents doxorubicin and venetoclax.ConclusionWe identified for the first time APC/C as a new, promising target in DLBCL and MCL. Moreover, we provide evidence that Cdc20 might be a novel, independent prognostic factor in DLBCL and MCL.

Maternal embryonic leucine zipper kinase is a novel target for diffuse large B cell lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma.

Project description:Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) are among the most aggressive B cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Maternal embryonic leucine zipper kinase (MELK) plays a role in cancer cell cycle progression and is associated with poor prognosis in several cancer cell types. In this study, the role of MELK in DLBCL and MCL and the therapeutic potential of MELK targeting is evaluated. MELK is highly expressed in DLBCL and MCL patient samples, correlating with a worse clinical outcome in DLBCL. Targeting MELK, using the small molecule OTSSP167, impaired cell growth and survival and induced caspase-mediated apoptosis in the lymphoma cells. Western blot analysis revealed that MELK targeting decreased the phosphorylation of FOXM1 and the protein levels of EZH2 and several mitotic regulators, such as Cdc25B, cyclin B1, Plk-1, and Aurora kinases. In addition, OTSSP167 also sensitized the lymphoma cells to the clinically relevant Bcl-2 inhibitor venetoclax by strongly reducing Mcl1 levels. Finally, OTSSP167 treatment of A20-inoculated mice resulted in a significant prolonged survival. In conclusion, targeting MELK with OTSSP167 induced strong anti-lymphoma activity both in vitro and in vivo. These findings suggest that MELK could be a potential new target in these aggressive B cell malignancies.

RNA inhibition highlights cyclin D1 as a potential therapeutic target for mantle cell lymphoma.

Project description:Mantle cell lymphoma is characterized by a genetic translocation results in aberrant overexpression of the CCND1 gene, which encodes cyclin D1. This protein functions as a regulator of the cell cycle progression, hence is considered to play an important role in the pathogenesis of the disease. In this study, we used RNA interference strategies to examine whether cyclin D1 might serve as a therapeutic target for mantle cell lymphoma. Knocking down cyclin D1 resulted in significant growth retardation, cell cycle arrest, and most importantly, induction of apoptosis. These results mark cyclin D1 as a target for mantle cell lymphoma and emphasize the therapeutic potential hidden in its silencing.

Hedgehog inhibitors selectively target cell migration and adhesion of mantle cell lymphoma in bone marrow microenvironment.

Project description:The clinical benefits of a Hedgehog (Hh) inhibitor, LDE225 (NPV-LDE-225, Erismodegib), have been unclear in hematological cancers. Here, we report that LDE225 selectively inhibited migration and adhesion of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) to bone marrows via very late antigen-4 (VLA-4) mediated inactivation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) signaling. LDE225 treatment not only affected MCL cells, but also modulated stromal cells within the bone marrow microenvironment by decreasing their production of SDF-1, IL-6 and VCAM-1, the ligand for VLA-4. Surprisingly, LDE225 treatment alone did not suppress cell proliferation due to increased CXCR4 expression mediated by reactive oxygen species (ROS). The increased ROS/CXCR4 further stimulated autophagy formation. The combination of LDE225 with the autophagy inhibitors further enhanced MCL cell death. Our data, for the first time, revealed LDE225 selectively targets MCL cells migration and adhesion to bone marrows. The ineffectiveness of LDE225 in MCL is due to autophagy formation, which in turn increases cell viability. Inhibiting autophagy will be an effective adjuvant therapy for LDE225 in MCL, especially for advanced MCL patients with bone marrow involvement.
