Pharmacological targeting PIKfyve and tubulin as an effective treatment strategy for double-hit lymphoma.

ABSTRACT: Double-hit lymphoma is one of the most aggressive and refractory lymphoma subtypes with recurrent genetic abnormalities of MYC and BCL-2 or BCL6 rearrangement, leading to a poor prognosis in the present clinical practice. Therefore, new therapeutic strategies for eliminating double-hit lymphomas are urgently needed. Here, we reported that HZX-02-059, a novel PIKfyve and tubulin dual-target inhibitor, showed a highly cytotoxic activity against double-hit lymphoma cell lines in vitro and in vivo through a noncanonical caspase-independent cell death, methuosis. Mechanistically, the cytotoxicity triggered by HZX-02-059 was contributed to the PIKfyve/TFEB axis-induced cell death of methuosis, as well as the inhibition of tubulin and mTOR/Myc axis-induced cell cycle arrest. In summary, the present findings suggest that HZX-02-059 represents a good starting point for developing targeted therapeutics against double-hit lymphomas.

Project description:BackgroundDouble-hit or Triple-hit lymphoma (DHL/THL) is a subset of high-grade B cell lymphoma harboring rearrangements of MYC and BCL2 and/or BCL6, and usually associate with aggressive profile, while current therapies tend to provide poor clinical outcomes and eventually relapsed. Further explorations of DHL at cellular and molecular levels are in demand to offer guidance for clinical activity.MethodsWe collected the peripheral blood of DHL patients and diffused large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients from single institute and converted them into PBMC samples. Mass cytometry was then performed to characterize these samples by 42 antibody markers with samples of healthy people as control. We divided the immune cell subtypes based on the expression profile of surface antigens, and the proportion of each cell subtype was also analyzed. By comparing the data of the DLBCL group and the healthy group, we figured out the distinguished immune cell subtypes of DHL patients according to their abundance and marker expression level. We further analyzed the heterogeneity of DHL samples by pairwise comparison based on clinical characteristics.ResultsWe found double-positive T cells (DPT) cells were in a significantly high percentage in DHL patients, whereas the ratio of double-negative T cells (DNT) was largely reduced in patients. Besides, CD38 was uniquely expressed at a high level on some naïve B cells of DHL patients, which could be a marker for the diagnosis of DHL (distinguishing from DLBCL), or even be a drug target for the treatment of DHL. In addition, we illustrated the heterogeneity of DHL patients in terms of immune cell landscape, and highlighted TP53 as a major factor that contributes to the heterogeneity of the T cells profile.ConclusionOur study demonstrated the distinct peripheral immune cell profile of DHL patients by contrast to DLBCL patients and healthy people, as well as the heterogeneity within the DHL group, which could provide valuable guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of DHL.
