Project description:Melanoma is a malignant tumor with a terrible prognosis. In this study, we showed regorafenib has the ability to limit the growth, invasion and metastasis of melanoma cells but to upregulate apoptosis-prompting markers (cleaved-PARP and Bax). Moreover, ERK/E2F3 signaling influences regorafenib's ability to suppress melanoma cell growth. Ultimately, regorafenib significantly inhibits tumor growth in a dose-dependent manner in vivo.

Project description:Regorafenib has anti-tumor activity in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC) with potential immunomodulatory effects, suggesting that its combination with immune checkpoint inhibitor may have clinically meaningful benefits in patients with uHCC. The multicenter, single-arm, phase 2 RENOBATE trial tested regorafenib-nivolumab as front-line treatment for uHCC. Forty-two patients received nivolumab 480 mg every 4 weeks and regorafenib 80 mg daily (3-weeks-on/1-week-off schedule). The primary endpoint was the investigator-assessed objective response rate (ORR) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. The secondary endpoints included safety, progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). ORR per RECIST version 1.1 was 31.0%, meeting the primary endpoint. The most common adverse events were palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia syndrome (38.1%), alopecia (26.2%) and skin rash (23.8%). Median PFS was 7.38 months. The 1-year OS rate was 80.5%, and the median OS was not reached. Exploratory single-cell RNA sequencing analyses of peripheral blood mononuclear cells showed that long-term responders exhibited T cell receptor repertoire diversification, enrichment of genes representing immunotherapy responsiveness in MKI67+ proliferating CD8+ T cells and a higher probability of M1-directed monocyte polarization. Our data support further clinical development of the regorafenib-nivolumab combination as front-line treatment for uHCC and provide preliminary insights on immune biomarkers of response.

Project description:We report the RNA sequencing data from the REPEAT study, in which patients with beyond first-line esophagogastric cancer were treated with regorafenib and paclitaxel. For the RNA sequencing, biopsies from metastatic lesions were obtained on baseline (n=21) and fifteen days following treatment initiation (n=13). PURPOSE: Regorafenib monotherapy, a multikinase-inhibitor of angiogenesis, tumor microenvironment, and oncogenesis, showed promising results in gastric cancer. We aimed to assess the tolerability of regorafenib and paclitaxel in advanced esophagogastric cancer (EGC) patients refractory to first-line treatment, and explore potential biomarkers. METHODS: Patients received paclitaxel (80 mg/m2) on days 1, 8, and 15 of a 28-day cycle and regorafenib (80/120/160 mg) on day 1-21 in the dose-escalation cohort, and the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) in the dose-expansion cohort. Exploratory, overall- (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were compared to a propensity-score matched cohort receiving standard second/third line systemic treatment. Paclitaxel pharmacokinetics were assessed using D1 and D15 samples. We performed ELISA measurements of galectin-1, RNA sequencing and shallow whole-genome sequencing of metastatic tumor biopsies for biomarker analyses. RESULTS: In the dose-escalation cohort (n=14), the MTD of regorafenib was 120 mg. Thirty-four patients were enrolled in the dose-expansion cohort. Most common toxicities (all grades; grade ≥3) were fatigue (79%; 4%) and sensory neuropathy (63%; 4%). Best responses achieved were partial response (28%) and stable disease (54%). Median OS and PFS were 7.8 and 4.2 months, respectively (median follow-up 7.8 months). OS (p=0.08) and PFS (p=0.81) were not significantly improved compared to the matched cohort. Paclitaxel concentrations were significantly increased with regorafenib (D15) compared with paclitaxel only (D1; p<0.05); no associations were observed with toxicity or efficacy. An increase in circulating galectin-1 compared to baseline was associated with shorter OS (p<0.01). Enrichment of angiogenesis-related gene expression was observed in short-survivors measured by RNA sequencing. Chromosome 19q13.12-q13.2 amplification was associated with shorter OS (p=0.02) and PFS (p=0.02). CONCLUSION: Treatment with regorafenib and paclitaxel is tolerable and shows promising efficacy in advanced EGC refractory to first-line treatment. Galectin-1 and chromosome 19q13.12-q13.2 amplification could serve as negative predictive biomarkers for treatment response.

Project description:Developing effective model systems to evaluate new potential chemotherapeutic reagents is critical. Three-dimensional cell cultures, such as spheroids, aid in bridging the gap between commonly used monolayer cell cultures and significantly more complex and expensive animal models. Spheroid model systems contain pathophysiological and chemical gradients similar to an in vivo tumor, which ultimately form distinct cellular subpopulations. In the spatial SILAC model, labels are pulsed into the spheroid at discrete time windows during development. These media pulses result in labeled proteins in distinct regions of the spheroid, which allows for tracing of quantitative proteomic changes to be correlated to different cellular subregions. In this study, we use the Spatial SILAC model to evaluate the proteomic response of a colon carcinoma spheroid to the multikinase inhibitor Regorafenib. We determined regorafenib to be an effective kinase inhibitor which significantly altered whole spheroid proliferation and resulted in increased apoptosis when the signal was averaged for all cells in the culture. However, when regorafenib treatment is more closely examined among the cellular subpopulations, drastic differences are observed for how the drug impacted the proteome of the necrotic spheroid core and the proliferating outer regions. Whole spheroid and outer region analysis shows that regorafenib treatment inhibited critical pathways such as mTOR signaling, ERK/MAPK signaling, and colorectal cancer metastasis signaling. However, analysis of the core shows that regorafenib had an entirely different effect, including upregulation of MAPK1 and KRAS, possibly indicating drug resistance within these late apoptotic cells. Ultimately, these combinatory studies can be used to further understanding of drug metabolism is different cellular subpopulations and provide valuable information to ultimately improve the accuracy of therapeutic testing.

Project description:Background: Patients with glioblastoma (GBM) have a dramatically poor prognosis. The recent REGOMA trial suggested an overall survival benefit of regorafenib in recurrent GBM patients. Considering the extreme genetic heterogeneity of GBMs, we aimed to identify molecular biomarkers predictive of differential response to the drug. The study provides evidence that a signature based on the expression of five biomarkers could help identifying a subgroup of GBM patients exhibiting a striking survival advantage when treated with regorafenib. Despite the presented results must be confirmed in larger replication cohorts, the study highlights potential biomarker options to help guiding the clinical decision among regorafenib and other treatments in patients with relapsing GBM. Methods.Total RNA was extracted from tumor samples of patients enrolled in the REGOMA trial. Genome-wide transcriptome and miRNA profiles were associated with patients' Overall Survival (OS) and Progression Free Survival (PFS). Results. At first step, a set of 11 gene transcripts (HIF1A, CTSK, SLC2A1, KLHL12, CDKN1A, CA12, WDR1, CD53, CBR4, NIFK-AS1, RAB30-DT) and 10 miRNAs (miR-93-5p, miR-203a-3p, miR-17-5p, let-7c-3p, miR-101-3p, miR-3607-3p, miR-6516-3p, miR-301a-3p, miR-23b-3p, miR-222-3p) was filtered by comparing survival between regorafenib and lomustine arms. As second step, a minisignature of two gene transcripts (HIF1A, CDKN1A) and three miRNAs (miR-3607-3p, miR-301a-3p, miR-93-5p) identified a subgroup of patients showing prolonged survival after regorafenib administration (median OS range 10.6 - 20.8 months). Conclusions. The study provides evidence that a signature based on the expression of five biomarkers could help identifying a subgroup of GBM patients exhibiting a striking survival advantage when treated with regorafenib. Despite the presented results must be confirmed in larger replication cohorts, the study highlights potential biomarker options to help guiding the clinical decision among regorafenib and other treatments in patients with relapsing GBM.

Project description:Regorafenib presented an antitumor activity in HNSCC mouse model and delayed the tumorigenesis of the 4NQO-indued oral mouse model. By tumor-infiltration lymphocytes isolation and RNA-seq analysis, the immunity-related function was activated by regorafenib. We approved that regorafenib can determine the macrophage polarization toward M1 inflammatory macrophages by suppressing the production of certain cytokines such as plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-I) from tumor cells. Also, Regorafenib suppresses secretion of PAI-1 from ex vivo cultures of human HNSCC organoids.

Project description:Low-dose regorafenib (5 mg/kg/day, corresponding to about half of human clinical dosage) inhibited tumor growth and angiogenesis in vivo similarly to DC-101 (anti-VEGFR antibody) but produced higher T cell activation and M1 macrophage polarization, Regorafenib increased M1/M2 ratio of BMDMs polarization and proliferation/activation of co-cultured T cells in vitro, indicating angiogenesis-independent immunomodulatory effects. Suppression of p38 kinase phosphorylation and downstream CREB-KLF4 activity in BMDMs by regorafenib reversed M2 polarization. Regorafenib enhanced antitumor efficacy of adoptively transferred antigen-specific T cells, whereas macrophage deletion negated regorafenib’s antitumor effects. Synergistic antitumor efficacy between low-dose regorafenib and anti-PD1 was associated with multiple immune-related pathways in the tumor microenvironment.

Project description:An increasing number of studies have shown that long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) dysregulation plays an important role in development of various cancers, including colon cancer. Nonetheless, the potential mechanisms of lncRNA in regorafenib-resistance remain unclear. Our research revealed the lncRNA AC069513.3 (MIR570MG) increased in regorafenib-resistant colon cancer cells compared to the regorafenib-sensitive cells. Furthermore, lncRNA AC069513.3 (MIR570MG) sponged miR-145, which declined in regorafenib-resistant colon cancer cell lines. More importantly, overexpression of miR-145 hampered cell proliferation and retrieved colon cancer regorafenib-sensitivity, contrary to the function of lncRNA AC069513.3 (MIR570MG). Dual luciferase reporter assay confirmed that miR-145 bound to 3’-UTR of SMAD3, a transcriptional modulator activated by TGFβ, resulting in blockage of TGFβ /SMAD3-mediated cell growth and cycle progression. Furthermore, ectopic expression of miR-145 inhibitor in the parental cells endowed resistance to regorafenib. Conversely, knockdown of AC069513.3 (MIR570MG) impoverished resistance against regorafenib. In summary, our findings suggested that lncRNA AC069513.3 (MIR570MG) promoted regorafenib resistance via releasing SMAD3 from miR-145, leading to activation of SMAD3-mediated signaling pathways.
