Elucidating the genomic architecture of Asian EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinoma through multi-region exome sequencing

ABSTRACT: EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinomas (LUAD) display diverse clinical trajectories and are characterized by rapid but short-lived responses to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Through sequencing of 79 spatially distinct regions from 16 early stage tumors, we show that despite low mutation burdens, EGFR-mutant Asian LUADs unexpectedly exhibit a complex genomic landscape with frequent and early whole genome doubling, aneuploidy and high clonal diversity. Multiple truncal alterations, including TP53 mutations and loss of CDKN2A and RB1, converge on cell cycle dysregulation, with late sector-specific high amplitude amplifications and deletions that potentially beget drug resistant clones. We highlight the association between genomic architecture and clinical phenotypes, such as co-occurring truncal drivers and primary TKI resistance. Through comparative analysis with published smoking-related LUAD, we postulate that the high intra-tumor heterogeneity observed in Asian EGFR-mutant LUAD may be contributed by an early dominant driver, genomic instability and low background mutation rates.

Detecting small cell transformation in patients with advanced EGFR mutant lung adenocarcinoma through epigenomic cfDNA profiling

Project description:Histologic transformation to small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an increasingly common resistance mechanism to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors in EGFR mutant lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) that is underdiagnosed in clinical practice due to the requirement for tissue biopsy. Early and accurate detection of transformed (t)SCLC has important prognostic and therapeutic implications. To address this unmet need, we first comprehensively profiled the epigenomes of metastatic lung tumors finding widespread epigenomic reprogramming during histologic transformation from LUAD to SCLC. We then utilized a novel approach for epigenomic profiling of cell-free DNA, which discriminated patients with EGFR mutant tSCLC from patients with EGFR mutant LUAD with greater than 90% accuracy. This first demonstration of the ability to accurately, and non-invasively, detect small cell transformation in patients with EGFR mutant LUAD through epigenomic cfDNA profiling is a critical step towards a new paradigm of diagnostic and therapeutic precision for patients with advanced lung cancer.

Study the differential gene expression of different lung cancer EGFR mutants in NIH3T3 cells

Project description:Oncogenic mutations in the EGFR gene account for 15-20% of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) cases. However, the mechanism for EGFR driven tumor development and growth is not fully understood. Here, using a mRNA expression profiling-based approach we identified betacellulin (BTC) as one the gene upregulated by oncogenic EGFR in a MAP kinase-dependent manner. BTC protein expression was markedly increased in LUAD patient samples compared to normal lung tissue, with higher expression in EGFR-mutant LUAD. BTC was sufficient to transform immortalized mouse cells, initiate tumor development in mice, and promote the survival of immortalized human lung epithelial cells. Conversely, knockdown of BTC inhibited the growth of EGFR-mutant human LUAD cells in culture and their tumor-forming ability in mice. Mechanistically, BTC knockdown resulted in attenuated EGFR signaling and apoptosis induction. Collectively, these results demonstrate a key role of BTC in EGFR-mutant LUAD, with potential therapeutic implications in LUAD and other EGFR-mutant cancers.

Effect of depletion of KDM4D, NFIB, and MLL1 on gene expression during adipogenic differentiation of C3H10T1/2 mesenchymal stem cells

Project description:The limited efficacy of currently approved immunotherapies in EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) underscores the need to better understand alternative mechanisms governing local immunosuppression to fuel novel therapies. Elevated surfactant and GM-CSF secretion from the transformed epithelium induces tumor-associated alveolar macrophages (TA-AM) to proliferate and support tumor growth by rewiring inflammatory functions and lipid metabolism. TA-AM properties are driven by increased GM-CSF—PPARγ signaling and inhibition of airway GM-CSF or PPARγ in TA-AMs suppresses cholesterol efflux to tumor cells, which impairs EGFR phosphorylation and restrains LUAD progression. In the absence of TA-AM metabolic support, LUAD cells compensate by increasing cholesterol synthesis, and blocking PPARγ in TA-AMs simultaneous with statin therapy further suppresses tumor progression and increases T cell effector functions. These results reveal new therapeutic combinations for immunotherapy resistant EGFR-mutant LUADs and demonstrate how such cancer cells can metabolically co-opt TA-AMs through GM-CSF—PPARγ signaling to provide nutrients that promote oncogenic signaling and growth.

Investigate the evolutionary trajectories during invasiveness acquisition in early lung adenocarcinoma

Project description:The evolutionary trajectories of early lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) have not been fully elucidated. We hypothesize that genomic analysis between pre-invasive and invasive components will facilitate the description of LUAD evolutionary patterns. We micro-dissect malignant pulmonary nodules (MPNs) into paired pre-invasive and invasive components for panel-genomic sequencing and recognize three evolutionary trajectories. Evolutionary mode 1 (EM1) demonstrates none of the common driver events between paired components, but another two modes, EM2A and EM2B, exhibit critical private alterations restricted to pre-invasive and invasive components, respectively. When ancestral clones harbor EGFR mutations, truncal mutation abundance significantly decrease after the acquisition of invasiveness, which may be associated with the intratumoral accumulation of infiltrated B cells. Harboring EGFR mutations is critical to the selective pressure and further impacts the prognosis. Our findings extend the understanding of evolutionary trajectories during invasiveness acquisition in early LUAD.

LncRNA RP3-340N1.2 affects the progression of lung adenocarcinoma cell lines by targeting miR-134-5p

Project description:We found lncRNA RP3-340N1.2 is highly expressed in LUAD and relatived with the progression of LUAD through high-throughput sequencing. Our results showed that the expression level of RP3-340N1.2 was upregulated significantly in three LUAD cell lines (A549, NCI_x001E_H1299, and NCI-H1975) and lentivirus-mediated knockdown of RP3-340N1.2 inhibited the differentiation, proliferation, migration, invasion, cell cycle, and other biological processes of tumor cells significantly. Bioinformatic software predicted the downstream target of RP3-340N1.2, which was verified using dual luciferase assays and other methods. We found that RP3-340N1.2 can competitively bind miR-134-5p in LUAD, and this microRNA has a significant regulatory effect on the expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), which leads to increased migration and invasion of LUAD cells. This discovery provided a possible mechanism by which RP3-340N1.2 participates in the development of LUAD. In conclusion, our results showed that lncRNA RP3_x001E_340N1.2 regulates the expression of EGFR indirectly by targeting miR-134-5p and promotes the progression of LUAD. Therefore, RP3-340N1.2 may become a valuable biomarker and therapeutic target in LUAD.

Single-cell Transcriptome Analysis Revealed that EGFR Mutation Leads to a Suppressive Tumor Immune Microenvironment in Lung Adenocarcinoma

Project description:We analyzed 40,799 single cells from nine samples and found that in EGFR-mutant LUAD, tumor cells generated an immunosuppressive microenvironment by releasing cytokines to attract suppressive immune cells such as myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) directly or indirectly by interacting with macrophages, dendritic cells, or other cell types. By contrast, EGFR wild-type LUAD had a greater ability to recruit immunocompetent T cells such as TRMs and Th1 cells, thus driving a proinflammatory microenvironment.

Vitamin D3 Metabolites Demonstrate Prognostic Value in EGFR-Mutant Lung Adenocarcinoma and Can be Deployed to Oppose Acquired Therapeutic Resistance

Project description:EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR TKIs) are the standard of care treatment for patients with EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Although initially effective, EGFR TKIs are not curative. Disease inevitably relapses due to acquired drug resistance. Here, we tested the ability of 1,25(OH)2D3 to promote epithelial differentiation and restore EGFR TKI sensitivity in models of EGFR TKI resistance that were associated with epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT).

Neoadjuvant sintilimab plus chemotherapy in early-stage EGFR-mutant NSCLC: phase 2 trial interim results (NEOTIDE/CTONG2104)

Project description:We launched an investigator-initiated, Simon’s two-stage design trial of neoadjuvant sintilimab combined with carboplatin and nab-paclitaxel (nab-PC) in early-stage EGFR-mutant NSCLC (Clinicaltrial.gov number NCT05244213). Here we report the first interim results of stage 1 cohort which met the overall primary endpoint in advance, and multi-omics profiling of neoadjuvant immunotherapy combination in early-stage EGFR-mutant patients. We performed in-depth single-cell RNA/TCR sequencing (scRNA/TCR-seq) of cells derived from 11 resected tumors as well as 34 tumors from real-world cohort which were all confirmed wild-type lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) or adeno-squamous carcinoma (ASC) and received neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy as control. By associating the tumor microenvironment (TME) and with responses, we uncovered heterogeneous mechanisms of primary resistance, providing insights into further strategic developments of combination regimens to improve the clinical outcome of EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients.

Integrative proteomic characterization of human lung adenocarcinoma

Project description:Genomic studies of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) have advanced understanding of the disease’s biology and accelerated targeted therapy. However, proteomic characteristics of LUAD remain poorly understood. We carried out comprehensive proteomic analysis of 103 cases of LUAD in Chinese patients. Integrative analysis of proteome, phosphoproteome, transcriptome, and whole-exome sequencing data revealed cancer associated characteristics, such as tumor-associated protein variants, distinct proteomic features, and clinical outcomes in patients of early stage or with EGFR and TP53 mutations. Proteome-based stratification of LUAD revealed three subtypes (S-I, S-II, S-III) related to different clinical and molecular features. Further, we nominated potential drug targets and validated the plasma protein level of HSP 90β as a potential prognostic biomarker for LUAD in an independent cohort. Our integrative proteomic analysis gives a more comprehensive understanding on the molecular landscape of LUAD and offers the opportunity for more precise diagnosis and treatment.

Integrative multi-omic analysis of the SWI/SNF complex defines a new clinical subgroup of lung adenocarcinoma patients

Project description:Mammalian SWI/SNF complexes are ATP-dependent chromatin remodelers composed of varying combinations of subunits that, together, fine-tune transcriptional regulation and genome integrity. SWI/SNF complex subunits have been identified as major targets of mutations in several tumor types suggesting a relevant role in tumorigenesis. However, there is a lack of comprehensive studies of the whole SWI/SNF complex in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Here, we combined genomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic approaches to identify which SWI/SNF subunits are present in lung cells, as well as their mutational status, mRNA levels, and protein levels in LUAD. For these purposes, we combined data from LUAD primary tumors, normal lung and LUAD cell lines, and external LUAD data from The Cancer Genome Atlas. Importantly, we found that mutations in the SWI/SNF complex in LUAD not only present a high incidence but we also observed that only the mutational status of the SWI/SNF complex and not the mutations in any of the top ten LUAD driver genes is associated with poorer overall survival in LUAD patients. Furthermore, we showed that the expression of the SWI/SNF complex in LUAD suffers an overall repression that cannot be explained exclusively by genetic alterations. Based on our findings, we propose that SWI/SNF-mutant LUAD tumors should be considered as a distinct subgroup with practical applications in the prognosis and follow-up of LUAD patients.
