Genomic and transcriptomic determinants of therapy resistance and immune landscape evolution during anti-EGFR treatment in colorectal cancer

ABSTRACT: Despite biomarker stratification, the anti-EGFR antibody cetuximab is only effective against a subgroup of colorectal cancers (CRC). This genomic and transcriptomic analysis of the cetuximab resistance landscape in 35 RAS wild-type CRCs identified associations of NF-1 and non-canonical RAS/RAF-aberrations with primary resistance and validated transcriptomic CRC-subtypes as non-genetic predictors of benefit. 64% of biopsies with acquired resistance harbored no genetic resistance drivers. Most of these had switched from a cetuximab-sensitive transcriptomic subtype pre-treatment to a fibroblast- and growth factor-rich subtype at progression. Fibroblast-supernatant conferred cetuximab resistance in vitro, confirming a major role for non-genetic resistance through stromal remodeling. Cetuximab treatment increased cytotoxic immune infiltrates and PDL1 and LAG3 immune-checkpoint expression, potentially providing opportunities to treat cetuximab-resistant CRCs with immunotherapy.

Overcoming cetuximab resistance in HNSCC: The role of AURKB and DUSP proteins

Project description:Unraveling the underlying mechanisms of cetuximab resistance in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is of major importance as many tumors remain non-responsive or become resistant. Out microarray results suggest that resistant cells still exhibit RAS-MAPK pathway signaling contributing to drug resistance, as witnessed by low expression of DUSP 5 and DUSP6, negative regulators of ERK1/2, and increased expression of AURKB, a key regulator of mitosis. Therefore, interrupting the RAS-MAPK pathway by an ERK1/2 inhibitor (apigenin) or an AURKB inhibitor (barasertib) might be a new strategy for overcoming cetuximab resistance in HNSCC 4 head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cell lines were treated with either 15 nM cetuximab or PBS during 13 hours. For each cell line, differential gene expression was assessed between cetuximab and PBS treatments.

Genomic characterization of intrinsic and acquired resistance to cetuximab in colorectal cancer patients

Project description:Anti-EGFR antibodies are effective in therapies for late-stage colorectal cancer (CRC); however, many tumours are unresponsive or develop resistance. We performed genomic analysis of intrinsic and acquired resistance to anti-EGFR therapy in prospectively collected tumour samples from 25 CRC patients receiving cetuximab (an EGFR inhibitor). Of 25 CRC patients, 13 displayed intrinsic resistance to cetuximab; 12 were intrinsically sensitive. We obtained six re-biopsy samples at acquired resistance from the intrinsically sensitive patients. NCOA4–RET and LMNA–NTRK1 fusions and NRG1 and GNAS amplifications were found in intrinsic-resistant patients. In cetuximab-sensitive patients, we found KRAS K117N and A146T mutations in addition to BRAF V600E, AKT1 E17K, PIK3CA E542K, and FGFR1 or ERBB2 amplifications. The comparison between baseline and acquired-resistant tumours revealed an extreme shift in variant allele frequency of somatic variants, suggesting that cetuximab exposure dramatically selected for rare resistant subclones that were initially undetectable. There was also an increase in epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition at acquired resistance, with a reduction in the immune infiltrate. Furthermore, characterization of an acquired-resistant, patient-derived cell line showed that PI3K/mTOR inhibition could rescue cetuximab resistance. Thus, we uncovered novel genomic alterations that elucidate the mechanisms of sensitivity and resistance to anti-EGFR therapy in metastatic CRC patients.

Longitudinal plasma proteome profiling reveals the dynamic biomarkers for prediction of cetuximab therapy response in colorectal cancer patients

Project description:Cetuximab therapy is the major treatment for colorectal cancer (CRC), but drug resistance limits its effectiveness. Here, we perform longitudinal and deep proteomic profiling of 641 plasma samples originated from 147 CRC patients (CRCs) undergoing cetuximab therapy with multi-course treatment, and 90 healthy controls (HCs). COL12A1, THBS2, S100A8, and S100A9 are screened as potential proteins to distinguish CRCs from HCs both in plasma and tissue validation cohorts. We identify the potential biomarkers (RRAS2, MMP8, FBLN1, RPTOR, and IMPDH2) for the initial response prediction. In a longitudinal setting, we identify two clusters with distinct fluctuations and construct the model with high accuracy to predict the longitudinal response, further validated in the independent cohort. This study reveals the heterogeneity of different biomarkers for tumor diagnosis, the initial and longitudinal response prediction respectively in the first course and multi-course cetuximab treatment, may ultimately be useful in monitoring and intervention strategies for CRC.

Understanding molecular mechanisms of Cetuximab insensitivity in Colorectal Cancer (CRC)

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

The expression profile of Cetuximab resistance in head-and-neck squamous cell carcinoma cells.

Project description:Cetuximab (Erbitux) is an antibody drug against EGFR and commonly used in late stage HNSCC and metastatic colorectal cancer. The oncogenic mutation of certain genes are known to drive Cetuximab resistance such as K-RAS or b-RAF mutation. The aberrant activation of signaling pathways in the presence of Cetuximab treatment to overcome cellular stress contribute to acquired resistance to Cetuximab as well. To better understand the mechanisms and molecular patterns of Cetuximab resistant cells, the Cetuximab resistant cells are trained for examining the gene expression profile. The gene expression array is used for identify the molecular signature governing the Cetuximab resitance.

Gene expression changes associated with acquired resistance to anti-EGFR therapy (cetuximab) in colorectal cancer cells

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.

Gene expression comparison of colorectal cancer samples from patients diagnosed at a young and elderly age

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) incidence increases with age and early onset of the disease is an indication of genetic predisposition, estimated to cause up to 30 % of all CRC cases. To identify genes associated with an increased risk for CRC, genome-wide gene expression levels of CRCs from patients diagnosed at an early age and CRCs from patients diagnosed at higher age were investigated. Patients with known hereditary predisposition syndromes were excluded from the study.
