Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary liver malignancy and is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide. The multi‐target inhibitor sorafenib is a first-line treatment for patients with advanced unresectable HCC. Recent clinical studies have evidenced that patients treated with sorafenib together with the anti-diabetic drug metformin have a survival disadvantage compared to patients receiving sorafenib only. Here, we examined whether a clinically relevant dose of metformin (50 mg/kg/d) could influence the antitumoral effects of sorafenib (15 mg/kg/d) in a subcutaneous xenograft model of human HCC growth using two different sequences of administration, i.e concomitant versus sequential dosing regimens. We observed that the administration of metformin six hours prior to sorafenib was significantly less effective in inhibiting tumor growth than concomitant administration of the two drugs. In vitro experiments confirmed that pretreatment of different human HCC cell lines with metformin reduced the effects of sorafenib on cell viability, proliferation and signaling. Transcriptomic analysis confirmed significant differences between xenografted tumors obtained under the concomitant and the sequential dosing regimens. Taken together, these observations call into question the benefit of parallel use of metformin and sorafenib in patients with advanced HCC and diabetes, as the interaction between the two drugs could ultimately compromise patient survival. To better characterize the molecular signatures driving the differential responses to concomitant and sequential biotherapies, we conducted a transcriptomic analysis on RNA extracted from tumor xenografts mice xenografed and treated with vehicle (control, n=3), metformin (50 mg/kg/day) combined to sorafenib (15 mg/kg/day) (concomitant schedule, n=3) or metformin (50 mg/kg/day) followed 6 hours later by sorafenib (15 mg/kg/day) (sequential schedule, n=3).

Project description:Complex interplay between T helper (Th) cells and macrophages contributes to the formation and progression of atherosclerotic plaques. While Th1 cytokines promote inflammatory activation of lesion macrophages, Th2 cytokines attenuate macrophage-mediated inflammation and enhance their repair functions. In spite of its biologic importance, the biochemical and molecular basis of how Th2 cytokines promote maturation of anti-inflammatory macrophages is not understood. We show here that in response to interleukin-4 (IL-4), signal transducer and activator of transcription 6 (STAT6) and PPARg-coactivator-1b (PGC-1b) induce macrophage programs for fatty acid oxidation and mitochondrial biogenesis. Transgenic expression of PGC-1b primes macrophages for alternative activation and strongly inhibits proinflammatory cytokine production, whereas inhibition of oxidative metabolism or RNAi-mediated knockdown of PGC-1b attenuates this immune response. These data elucidate a molecular pathway that directly links mitochondrial oxidative metabolism to the anti-inflammatory program of macrophage activation, suggesting a potential role for metabolic therapies in treating atherogenic inflammation. Total RNA was prepared from three independent experimental replicates using Trizol reagent (Invitrogen) and validated by northern blot. Microarray experiments were performed with 20-25 ?g of total RNA, which was labelled with fluorescent nucleotides and hybridized to murine cDNA slides. Hybridized slides were interrogated via an Agilent scanner. Cells were activated with either interleukin-4, interferon-gamma/lipo-polysaccharide, or vehicle in low-glucose media.

Project description:Purpose: The importance of cellular context to the synergy of DNA Damage Response (DDR) targeted agents is important for tumors with mutations in DDR pathways, but less well-established for tumors driven by oncogenic transcription factors. In this study, we exploit the widespread transcriptional dysregulation of the EWS-FLI1 transcription factor to identify an effective DDR targeted combination therapy for Ewing Sarcoma (ES). Experimental Design: We used matrix drug screening to evaluate synergy between a DNA-PK inhibitor (M9831) or an ATR inhibitor (berzosertib) and chemotherapy. The combination of berzosertib and cisplatin was selected for broad synergy, mechanistically evaluated for ES selectivity, and optimized for in vivo schedule. Results: Berzosertib combined with cisplatin demonstrates profound synergy in multiple ES cell lines at clinically achievable concentrations. The synergy is due to loss of expression of the ATR downstream target CHEK1, loss of cell cycle checkpoints, and mitotic catastrophe. Consistent with the goals of the project, EWS-FLI1 drives the expression of CHEK1 and five other ATR pathway members. The loss of expression is not due to transcriptional repression and instead caused by degradation coupled with suppression of protein translation. The profound synergy is realized in vivo with a novel optimized schedule of this combination in subsets of ES models leading to durable complete responses in 50% of animals bearing two different ES xenografts. Conclusions: These data exploit EWS-FLI1 driven alterations in cell context to broaden the therapeutic window of berzosertib and cisplatin to establish a promising combination therapy and a novel in vivo schedule.

Project description:PurposeBCL2 is overexpressed and confers prosurvival signaling in malignant lymphoplasmacytic cells in Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM). Venetoclax is a potent BCL2 antagonist and triggers in vitro apoptosis of WM cells. The activity of venetoclax in WM remains to be clarified.Patients and methodsWe performed a multicenter, prospective phase II study of venetoclax in patients with previously treated WM (NCT02677324). Venetoclax was dose-escalated from 200 mg to a maximum dose of 800 mg daily for up to 2 years.ResultsThirty-two patients were evaluable, including 16 previously exposed to Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BTKis). All patients were MYD88 L265P-mutated, and 17 carried CXCR4 mutations. The median time to minor and major responses was 1.9 and 5.1 months, respectively. Previous exposure to BTKis was associated with a longer time to response (4.5 v 1.4 months; P < .001). The overall, major, and very good partial response rates were 84%, 81%, and 19%, respectively. The major response rate was lower in those with refractory versus relapsed disease (50% v 95%; P = .007). The median follow-up time was 33 months, and the median progression-free survival was 30 months. CXCR4 mutations did not affect treatment response or progression-free survival. The only recurring grade ≥ 3 treatment-related adverse event was neutropenia (n = 14; 45%), including one episode of febrile neutropenia. Laboratory tumor lysis without clinical sequelae occurred in one patient. No deaths have occurred.ConclusionVenetoclax is safe and highly active in patients with previously treated WM, including those who previously received BTKis. CXCR4 mutation status did not affect treatment response.
