Project description:The aim of our study was to investigate whether miRNAs could serve as predictive biomarkers to anti-EGFR therapy (cetuximab, panitumumab) in patients with KRAS wild-type (wt-KRAS) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). In our study, historical cohort of 96 patiens with wt-KRAS mCRC (2006-2009) was included and further divided into exploratory and validation cohorts. Large-scale miRNAs expression profiling was performed on the exploratory cohort of 41 wt-KRAS mCRC patients treated with cetuximab to identify miRNAs associated with time to progression (TTP). The validation was performed on two independent cohorts: 30 patients of wt-KRAS mCRC treated with cetuximab and 25 patients of wt-KRAS mCRC treated with panitumumab.

Project description:KRAS mutation is a negative predictive factor for treatment with anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) antibodies in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Novel predictive markers are required to further improve the selection of patients for this treatment. Here, we assessed the influence of modification of KRAS by gene copy number aberration (CNA) and microRNAs (miRNAs) in correlation to clinical outcome in mCRC patients treated with cetuximab in combination with chemotherapy and bevacizumab. Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded primary tumour tissue was used from 34 mCRC patients in a phase III trial, who were selected based upon their good (n=17) or poor (n=17) progression-free survival (PFS) upon treatment with cetuximab in combination with capecitabine, oxaliplatin, and bevacizumab. Gene copy number at the KRAS locus was assessed using high resolution genome-wide array CGH and the expression levels of 17 miRNAs targeting KRAS were determined by real-time PCR. Good response was associated with 12p12.1 copy number loss, even in patients with a KRAS mutation, while copy number gain in wild-type KRAS patients was correlated with a poor response. In KRAS mutated tumours increased miR-200b and decreased miR-143 expression were associated with a good response. In wild-type KRAS patients, miRNA expression did not predict response in a multivariate model. Thus, assessment of KRAS CNA and miRNAs targeting KRAS might further optimize the selection of patients eligible for anti-EGFR therapy. Copy number detection was performed using NimbleScan and Nexus software Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded primary tumour tissue was used from 34 metastisized colorectal cancer patients in a phase III trial (CKTO 2005-02; ClinTrials.gov NCT00208546) of the Dutch Colorectal Cancer Group (DCCG), who were selected based upon their good (n=17) or poor (n=17) progression-free survival (PFS) upon treatment with cetuximab in combination with capecitabine, oxaliplatin, and bevacizumab.

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is still one of the most common causes of cancer-related death worldwide (World Health Organization, Fact sheet NM-BM-0297, October 2011). Though, therapeutic options improved over the past years, the prognosis of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) remains poor with a median survival of 18-21 months. Monoclonal antibodies targeting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) are used for the palliative treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) carrying a KRAS-wildtype. Among the tumors with a KRAS-wildtype, only 35% respond, and alterations of other signaling molecules and pathways modulate therapeutic response. In this study we analyzed the effect of KRAS-mutations on intracellular signaling cascades to find new therapeutic approaches for patients with mCRC. Reverse-phase protein array and gene array technology was applied to sixteen adenocarcinomas of the sigmoid colon carrying either wildtype (n=8) or mutant (n=8) KRAS. Differential expression was validated on 49 sigmoid cancers by RT-PCR, Western blot and immunohistochemistry. In a screening for members of signaling pathways known to have a high impact on tumor development in colon cancer, we found 14 proteins downregulated in tumors with mutated KRAS. Subsequently, we compared the data of the protein arrays with the results of gene expression arrays performed with the same samples. We confirmed the differential expression of eight genes as a function of the KRAS genotype of the tumor. To further validate the differential expression of these candidates, we performed quantitative expression analysis and immunohistochemical staining of an independent validation series comprising 49 CRC patient samples. It was clearly demonstrated that the expression of EGFR is decreased in colorectal carcinomas with a mutant KRAS genotype. mRNA was obtained from 16 patients with colorectal cancer (8 with and 8 without KRAS-mutation). mRNA was extracted from neoplastic and non-neoplastic colon mucosa and analyzed separately by Affymetrix Human Gene 1.1 ST GeneChips finally generating 32 separate data sets.

Project description:In metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), primary and acquired resistance against anti-EGFR targeted monoclonal antibodies, such as cetuximab (CET), were shown to be frequently caused by activating alterations in RAS genes (KRAS or NRAS). To this day no efficient second-line treatment options have emerged to treat mCRC upon emergence of acquired KRAS alterations. In order to uncover potential targets for second-line targeted therapies, we used mass spectrometric proteomics to shed light on kinome reprogramming in an established model of acquired, KRAS associated CET resistance. This CET resistance was reflected by significant changes in the kinome, most of them individual to each cell line. Interestingly a common theme in all investigated resistant cell lines was the upregulation of the Ephrin type-A receptor 2 (EPHA2), a well-known driver of cell migration. Expectedly resistant cell lines displayed increased migration (p<0.01) that was significantly reduced by targeting the EPHA2 signalling axis using RNA interference (p<0.001), ephrin-A1 stimulation (p<0.001), dasatinib (p<0.01) or anti-EPHA2 antibody treatment (p<0.001), identifying it as an actionable target in CET resistant mCRC. These results highlight EPHA2 and its role in KRAS mutated acquired CET resistance in mCRC and identify it as a potential target for the development of future precision medicine therapies.

Project description:Mutational status of KRAS in CRC is used to aid patient stratification for Cetuximab treatment. However, only a subset (10-40%) of patients with wt KRAS respond. We analyzed 40 mCRC tumors for Cetuximab response using a functional ex vivo platform. In the subset of non-responsive tumors, mutational (KRAS/BRAF and PIK3CA) and expression (AREG/EREG) analysis of key genes, transcriptomic profiling and GSEA were carried out to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying the response. Our analysis revealed deregulation of multiple pathways, notably Notch and Erbb2 and combined blockade of these two nodes elicited significant antitumor response. These findings collectively indicate the dependence of Cetuximab insensitive mCRC tumors on Notch and Erbb2 for survival and progression. 8 Primary tumors tested in ex vivo platform for response to Cetuximab were subjected to expression analysis

Project description:Despite the implementation of personalized medicine, patients with metastatic CRC (mCRC) still have a dismal overall survival due to the frequent occurrence of acquired resistance mechanisms thereby leading to clinical relapse. Understanding molecular mechanisms that support acquired resistance to anti-EGFR targeted therapy in mCRC is therefore clinically relevant and key to improving patient outcomes. Here, we observe distinct metabolic changes between cetuximab-resistant CRC cell populations, with in particular an increased glycolytic activity in KRAS-mutant cetuximab-resistant LIM1215 but not in KRAS-amplified resistant DiFi cells. We show that cetuximab-resistant LIM1215 cells have the capacity to recycle glycolysis-derived lactate to sustain their growth capacity. This is associated with an upregulation of the lactate importer MCT1 at both transcript and protein levels. Pharmacological inhibition of MCT1, with AR-C155858, reduces the uptake and oxidation of lactate and impairs growth capacity in cetuximab-resistant LIM1215 cells. This study identifies MCT1-dependent lactate utilization as a clinically actionable, metabolic vulnerability to overcome KRAS-mutant-mediated acquired resistance to anti-EGFR therapy in CRC.

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the most common gastrointestinal malignancy in the U.S.A. and approximately 50% of CRC patients develop metastatic disease (mCRC) with an average 5-year survival rate of 13%. Despite our understanding of circular RNAs (circRNAs) in primary cancer, their role throughout mCRC remains poorly characterized. Further, despite the availability of bulk RNA-Seq data for monitoring circRNA expression little is known about their cell-type specific expression profiles to fully understand their functions between tumor cells and the microenvironment. To evaluate circRNAs in mCRC progression, total RNA-Seq was performed on 30 matched normal, primary, and distant metastatic samples from 14 mCRC patients. Additionally, the transcriptome of five CRC cell lines were sequenced to construct a circRNA catalog in CRC. Differential expression (DE) analysis identified circRNAs dysregulated between normal, primary, and metastatic tissues. Differential backsplicing (DS) analysis was used to highlight circRNAs with an altered tendency in backsplicing as compared to their linear counterparts. Cell-type deconvolution was performed using published CRC single-cell RNA-Seq datasets as signature matrices. The cell-type specific expression of circRNAs was then estimated through a non-negative least squares statistical model.
