Project description:Appendiceal adenocarcinomas (AAs) are a rare and heterogeneous mix of tumors for which few preclinical models exist. The rarity of AA has made performing prospective clinical trials difficult, which has partly contributed to AA remaining an orphan disease with no chemotherapeutic agents approved by the FDA for its treatment. AA has a unique biology in which it frequently forms diffuse peritoneal metastases but almost never spreads via a hematogenous route and rarely spreads to lymphatics. Given the localization of AA to the peritoneal space, intraperitoneal (IP) delivery of chemotherapy could be an effective treatment strategy. Here, we tested the efficacy of paclitaxel given by IP administration using three orthotopic patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models of AA established in immunodeficient NSG mice. Weekly IP paclitaxel treatment dramatically reduced AA tumor growth in all three PDX models. Comparing the safety and efficacy of intravenous (IV) to IP administration, IP delivery of paclitaxel was more effective with reduced systemic side effects in mice. Given the established safety record of IP paclitaxel in gastric and ovarian cancers, and lack of effective chemotherapeutics for AA, these data showing the activity of IP paclitaxel in orthotopic PDX models of mucinous AA support the evaluation of IP paclitaxel in a prospective clinical trial.

Project description:Appendiceal neoplasms include a heterogeneous group of epithelial and non-epithelial tumors with varying malignant potential. Despite the rise in incidence of appendiceal neoplasms in recent years, limited progress has been made in the understanding, management and therapeutic treatment. To comprehensively characterize the cell types and molecular mechanisms driving cellular remodeling in epithelial appendiceal neoplasms, we performed an integrated scRNA-seq study. We analyzed 126,998 cells from 16 appendix samples (11 peritoneal metastases samples, 5 healthy controls) and identified 33 distinct cell types/cell states with seven being cancer-specific. Highlights of our study include the characterization of tumor cells across the histologic spectrum, the identification of a novel cancer-associated-fibroblast (CAF) subtypes (fiCAFs) and the identification of pathologic-specific cellular crosstalks between tumor cells and the tumor microenvironment (TME). Together, our study provides a high-resolution insight into the complexity and heterogeneity of epithelial appendiceal neoplasms and a valuable resource for therapeutic strategies.

Project description:Patients with peritoneal metastasis of colorectal or high grade appendiceal origin who are candidates for cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC (hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy) will be enrolled in this study. Blood collection for measurements of plasma cell-free DNA hydroxymethylation signatures will be performed at different time points, before and after surgery, in order to determine if plasma hydroxymethylation signatures are more sensitive than conventional tumor markers in identifying clinically detectable recurrence at 1 year after surgery.

Project description:Background: There is a paucity of targeted therapies for patients with pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) secondary to low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasms (LAMNs). Dysregulated metabolism has emerged as a hallmark of cancer, and the relationship of metabolomics and cancer is an area of active scientific exploration. We sought to characterize phenotypic differences found in peritoneal metastases (PM) derived from LAMN versus adenocarcinoma. Methods: Tumors were washed with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), microdissected, then dissociated in ice-cold methanol dried and reconstituted in pyridine. Samples were derivatized in tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS) and subjected to gas chromatography-coupled mass spectrometry. Metabolites were assessed based on a standard library. RNA sequencing was performed, with pathway and network analyses on differentially expressed genes.Results: Eight peritoneal tumor samples were obtained and analyzed: LAMNs (4), and moderate to poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma (colon [1], appendix [3]). Decreases in pyroglutamate, fumarate, and cysteine in PM from LAMNs were found compared with adenocarcinoma. Analyses showed the differential gene expression was dominated by the prevalence of metabolic pathways, particularly lipid metabolism. The gene retinol saturase (RETSAT), downregulated by LAMN, was involved in the multiple metabolic pathways that involve lipids. Using network mapping, we found IL1B signaling to be a potential top-level modulation candidate. Conclusions: Distinct metabolic signatures may exist for PM from LAMN versus adenocarcinoma. A multitude of genes are differentially regulated, many of which are involved in metabolic pathways. Additional research is needed to identify the significance and applicability of targeting metabolic pathways in the potential development of novel therapeutics for these challenging tumors.

Project description:Appendiceal cancer patients treated with cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) often demonstrate an unpredictable variability in survival outcomes. Biomarkers predictive of CRS/HIPEC efficacy could better guide treatment decisions. In this study we hypothesized that variation in the transcriptional programming of appendiceal tumors might distinguish molecular subtypes with differential outcomes after CRS/HIPEC. The goal of this study was to investigate the potential of a prognostic gene signature to discriminate patients with favorable and unfavorable outcomes in a “discovery” set of patient (the original tumor series (n=24)), and confirm its prognostic value in a second “validation” series (the validation cohort (n=39)).

Project description:This phase I trial studies the side effects of pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) in treating patients with ovarian, uterine, appendiceal, stomach (gastric), or colorectal cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdominal cavity (peritoneal carcinomatosis). Chemotherapy drugs, such as cisplatin, doxorubicin, oxaliplatin, leucovorin, fluorouracil, mitomycin, and irinotecan, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. PIPAC is a minimally invasive procedure that involves the administration of intraperitoneal chemotherapy. The study device consists of a nebulizer (a device that turns liquids into a fine mist), which is connected to a high-pressure injector, and inserted into the abdomen (part of the body that contains the digestive organs) during a laparoscopic procedure (a surgery using small incisions to introduce air and to insert a camera and other instruments in the abdominal cavity for diagnosis and/or to perform routine surgical procedures). Pressurization of the liquid chemotherapy through the study device results in aerosolization (a fine mist or spray) of the chemotherapy intra-abdominally (into the abdomen). Giving chemotherapy through PIPAC may reduce the amount of chemotherapy needed to achieve acceptable drug concentration, and therefore potentially reduces side effects and toxicities.

Project description:Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI/MRI) has been described in recent literature as a highly sensitive and specific modality for the detection of peritoneal metastases PM. It has been demonstrated to be superior to CT for patients with known peritoneal disease from colorectal and gynaecological malignancies as a staging tool for cytoreductive surgery. It was also demonstrated to be superior for the detection of PM for gastric cancer patients otherwise considered with a resectable tumor. However, the literature is scarce on the role of DWI/MRI in the detection of peritoneal recurrence for patients with high-risk features, either colorectal cancer (CRC) or appendiceal neoplasms (AN).
The aim of this study is to prospectively assess the added value of whole-body DWI/MRI (WB-DWI/MRI) to CT and diagnostic laparoscopy for detection of PM in the follow-up of patients presenting with CRC or AN and high-risk features for peritoneal recurrence and evaluate how it correlates with intraoperative findings.

Project description:In recent years, cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) have substantially improved the clinical outcome of pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) originating from mucinous appendiceal cancer. However, current histopathological grading of appendiceal PMP frequently fails in predicting disease outcome. We recently observed that the integration of cancer cell transcriptional traits with those of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) improves prognostic prediction for tumors of the large intestine. We therefore generated global expression profiles on a consecutive series of 24 PMP patients treated with CRS plus HIPEC. Multiple lesions were profiled for nine patients. We then used expression data to stratify the samples by a previously published "high-risk appendiceal cancer" (HRAC) signature and by a CAF signature that we previously developed for colorectal cancer, or by a combination of both. The prognostic value of the HRAC signature was confirmed in our cohort and further improved by integration of the CAF signature. Classification of cases profiled for multiple lesions revealed the existence of outlier samples and highlighted the need of profiling multiple PMP lesions to select representative samples for optimal performances. The integrated predictor was subsequently validated in an independent PMP cohort. These results provide new insights into PMP biology, revealing a previously unrecognized prognostic role of the stromal component and supporting integration of standard pathological grade with the HRAC and CAF transcriptional signatures to better predict disease outcome.

Project description:Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a successful renal replacement therapy for end-stage renal disease that effectively improves the quality of life. Long-term PD causes epithelial mesenchymal transformation (MMT) of peritoneal mesothelial cells, leading to peritoneal fibrosis which reduces the efficiency of PD. Macrophages are considered players in the onset and perpetuation of peritoneal injury. Yet, the mechanisms employed by macrophage-mesothelial cells communication to regulate peritoneal fibrosis are not fully elucidated resulting in lack of disease-modified drugs. This study analyzes the role of macrophage-mesothelial cell communication by intraperitoneal injection of macrophage derived exosomes in PD model rats. These results show that macrophages secrete exosomal miR-204-5p that directly targets Foxc1, leading to the activation of MMT in mesothelial cells. The data also shows that intraperitoneal injection of dissolved AS-IV can improve MMT by altering macrophage derived exosomal miRNAs. This study indicates that intercellular crosstalk between peritoneal macrophages and mesothelial cells is mediated by macrophage derived miR-204-5p-containing exosomes that control the MMT progression, providing AS-IV for prevention and treatment of PD induced peritoneal fibrosis. Our results demonstrate, for the first time, a novel role of the AS-IV on miR-204-5p/Foxc1/β-catenin axis in improving peritoneal fibrosis in vivo and vitro.
