ABSTRACT: Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) signaling activation is frequently observed in triple negative breast cancer, however, PI3K inhibitors have shown limited clinical activity. To investigate resistance mechanisms, we performed global transcriptome, proteome, phosphoproteome and kinome analysis of a panel of triple negative breast cancer patient derived xenograft models with varying responsiveness to buparlisib, a pan-PI3K inhibitor, for differentially expressed baseline and post-treatment biomarkers. Resistance was associated with incomplete inhibition of PI3K and upregulated MAPK/MEK signaling in response to buparlisib. Outlier phosphoproteome and kinome analyses identified additional candidates in association with buparlisib resistance, including NEK9 and MAP2K4. Knockdown of NEK9 or MAPK2K4 reduced both baseline and feedback MAPK/MEK signaling and enhanced buparlisib efficacy in vitro. Interestingly, we show that a complex ins/del in PIK3CA led to a change in buparlisib response in a NEK9/MAP2K4 dependent manner. In summary, our study indicates a role for NEK9 and MAP2K4 in mediating buparlisib resistance and demonstrates the value of unbiased global analyses in uncovering resistance mechanisms to targeted therapy.
