Project description:Cyclin-dependent kinase 7 (CDK7) plays a critical role in the general regulation of RNA polymerase II-mediated transcription. However, the absence of selective CDK7 inhibitors has hindered the ability to investigate the consequences of acute and prolonged inhibition of CDK7 under normal and pathological conditions. Here we present the discovery and characterization of the first covalent CDK7 inhibitor, CDK7-IN-1, that has the unprecedented ability to target a unique cysteine residue located outside of the canonical kinase domain, providing an unanticipated means of achieving selectivity for CDK7 amongst the 20 known CDKs. Cancer cell line profiling indicates that a subset of cancer cell lines, including T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL), exhibit 100-fold greater sensitivity to CDK7-IN-1 over other tumor and normal cell lines. Genome-wide expression analysis in Jurkat T-ALL indicates that CDK7-IN-1 disproportionally affects RUNX1 as well as other components of the TAL1 transcriptional network and its targets, downregulating key regulators of transcription and apoptosis critical for the T-ALL state. These oncogenes are encoded by short-lived mRNA transcripts, are associated with super-enhancers, and exhibit a strong dependency on continuous transcription for sustained expression. Therefore, pharmacological modulation of CDK7 kinase activity may define a method for the identification and treatment of tumor types exhibiting extreme dependencies on transcription for maintenance of the oncogenic state. Jurkat, MM1S, Loucy, and HeLa (WT and Dox-inducible CDK7 mutant) cells were treated with various drugs including a covalent inhibitor of CDK7 (CDK7-IN-1), a reversible inhibitor of CDK7 (CDK7-IN-1), Flavopiridol, Actinomycin D, and DMSO controls. Replicates are annotated.

Project description:Therapeutic targeting of CDK7 has proven beneficial in pre-clinical studies, yet the off-target effects of currently available CDK7 inhibitors make it difficult to pinpoint the exact mechanisms behind MM cell death mediated by CDK7 inhibition. Here, we show that CDK7 expression positively correlates with E2F and MYC transcriptional programs in multiple myeloma (MM) patient cells; and its selective targeting counteracts E2F activity via perturbation of the CDKs/Rb axis and impairs MYC-regulated metabolic gene signatures translating into defects in glycolysis and reduced levels of lactate production in MM cells. CDK7 inhibition using the covalent small molecule inhibitor YKL-5-124 elicits a strong therapeutic response with minimal effects on normal cells, and causes in vivo tumor regression increasing survival in several MM mouse models including a genetically engineered mouse model of MYC-dependent MM. Through its role as a critical cofactor and regulator of MYC and E2F activity, CDK7 is therefore a master regulator of oncogenic cellular programs supporting MM growth and survival, and a valuable therapeutic target providing rationale for development of YKL-5-124 for clinical use.

Project description:Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive disease with high mortality. The identification of effective pharmacological strategies to target SCLC biology represents an urgent need. Using a high-throughput cellular screen of a diverse chemical library we observe that SCLC is sensitive to transcription-targeting drugs, and in particular to THZ1, a newly identified covalent inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinase 7 (CDK7). We find that expression of super-enhancer associated transcription factor genes including MYC family proto-oncogenes and neuroendocrine lineage-specific factors are highly vulnerability to THZ1 treatment. We propose that downregulation of these transcription factors contributes, in part, to SCLC sensitivity to transcriptional inhibitors and that THZ1 represents a novel treatment paradigm for targeted SCLC therapy.

Project description:Recent studies reveal that a subset of cancers in various indications are dependent on high and constant expression of certain transcription factors for growth and survival, a phenomenon termed as transcriptional addiction. Therefore, targeting transcriptional machinery can potentially lead to potent and selective anticancer effects. CDK7 is the catalytic subunit of the CDK-activating kinase (CAK) complex. Its function is required for both cell cycle regulation and transcriptional control of gene expression. CDK7 has recently emerged as an attractive target in cancer since its inhibition leads to decrease of the transcript levels of oncogenic transcription factors, especially those associated with super-enhancers (SEs). Here we describe a first-in-class CDK7 inhibitor SY-1365, which covalently targets a cysteine outside the kinase domain, resulting in sustained, highly selective inhibition of CDK7. In vitro studies reveal that SY-1365 has potency in a wide range of cancer models with low micromolar IC50 values. Cancer cells with low BCL-XL expression are found to be more dependent on MCL1 for survival and therefore particularly sensitive towards SY-1365 treatment since SY-1365 downregulates MCL1 protein level. SY-1365 treatment induces distinct transcriptional changes in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cell lines. SY-1365 also demonstrates substantial anti-tumor effects in multiple AML xenograft models. Additionally, combination treatment with venetoclax shows synergistic effects in AML models both in vitro and in vivo. Our findings support targeting CDK7 as a new approach for treating transcriptionally addicted cancers. SY-1365 is currently being assessed in a Phase I trial in adult patients (NCT03134638) We performed microarray based expression profiling to quantify transcriptional changes upon treatment with the CDK7 inhibitor, SY-1365 and to compare it to transcriptional changes induced by treatment with other transcriptional drugs JQ1 (BRD4 inhibitor), NVP2 (CDK9 inhibitor) and flavopiridol (pan-CDK inhibitor). We profiled a human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cell line THP-1. Cells were treated with either DMSO, 100nm SY-1365, 25nM NVP2 , 250nM JQ1 or 200nM flavopiridol for two and six hours. All samples were prepared in biological triplicate.
