Project description:Our data suggest that neoadjuvant chemotherapy enhances anti-cancer responses of T cells in peritoneal metastases of patients with high-grade serous ovarian cancer but does not decrease levels of immune checkpoint molecules, providing a rationale for sequential chemo-immunotherapy. tRNA was isolated from 35 omental tissue samples of HGSOC metastases either pre or post NACT treatment. RNASeq was performed on poly-A selected mRNA fragments, 100 b.p paired end, and strand specific, on average 40 million reads per sample.

Project description:Platinum-based chemotherapies are widely used anti-cancer drugs. Tumor resistance to platinum compounds is a major determinant of patient survival, including in high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC). To understand mechanisms of platinum resistance and identify potential therapeutic targets in resistant HGSOC, we generated a comprehensive, reproducible data resource comprised of dynamic (+/-carboplatin) proteomic/posttranslational modification and RNASeq profiles from HGSOC intra-patient cell line pairs derived from 3 patients before and after acquiring platinum resistance. The molecular profiles revealed extensive responses to carboplatin and differential responses between sensitive and resistant cells. Higher oxidative phosphorylation and fatty acid oxidation (FAO) pathway expression were observed in the platinum-resistant cells, which was further validated in patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models. We show that both pharmacologic inhibition and CRISPR knockout of CPT1A, which represents a rate limiting step of FAO, sensitize HGSOC cells to platinum. Thus, FAO is a candidate therapeutic target to overcome platinum resistance.

Project description:In the United States, high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy and tumor response to platinum-based chemotherapy is a major determinant of clinical outcome. Although recent efforts have dramatically improved the median survival of advanced ovarian cancer, the initial treatment of the disease has remained the same. The initial therapy includes surgery and chemotherapy and the response rate is very high (85%). Unfortunately, 15% of patients do not respond to this therapy and have platinum-refractory disease. These patients have a very short survival and there is an urgent need to identify novel pharmaceutically targetable pathways to treat these patients. We generated extensive proteomic (global, phospho, ubiquitin, acetylation, pTyr) and RNASeq-based dynamic molecular profiles (+/-carboplatin at 8 and 24 hours) from HGSOC intra-patient cell line pairs (PEA1/PEA2, PEO1/PEO4, PEO14/PEO23) derived from 3 patients before and after acquiring platinum resistance. The molecular profiles revealed a multi-faceted response to carboplatin (e.g., induction of a DNA damage response, ubiquitination of ribosomal proteins, and metabolic changes), as well as novel carboplatin-induced post-translational modifications. Higher oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and fatty acid beta-oxidation (FAO) pathway expression was observed in resistant compared with sensitive cells. These expression findings were validated via metabolite profiling of cell lines and proteomic profiling of platinum sensitive and refractory HGSOC patient derived xenograft (PDX) models. Both pharmacologic inhibition and CRISPR knockout of CPT1A, which represents the rate limiting step of FAO, sensitizes HGSOC cells to platinum. The metabolic signature identified in the cell line and PDX models is correlated with survival in a previously reported proteomic analysis of HGSOC, and thus FAO is a candidate druggable pathway to overcome platinum resistance.

Project description:Introduction: Although High Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer (HGSOC) is considered a chemo-responsive disease, a proportion of patients do not respond to platinum-based chemotherapy at presentation or have progression-free survival of <6 months. Validated biomarkers of lack of response would enable alternative treatment stratification for these patients and identify novel mechanisms of resistance. Methods: Differential DNA methylation was investigated in independent tumour sets using Illumina 27K HumanMethylation arrays and validated by bisulphite pyrosequencing. Gene expression was by Affymetrix arrays and qRT-PCR. The role of Msh homeobox 1 (MSX1) in drug sensitivity was investigated by gene reintroduction into ovarian cancer cell lines. Results: CpG sites at contiguous genomic locations within the MSX1 gene have significantly lower levels of methylation in HGSOC which recur by 6 months compared to after 12 months and/or with RECIST response (p<0.05, q<0.05). A decrease in methylation at these intragenic CpG sites was significantly correlated with decreased MSX1 gene expression. Low expression of MSX1 was associated with poor progression-free survival independent of known clinical prognostic features (p=0.014). Three mutant or wild-type TP53 expressing ovarian cancer cell lines, resistant to cisplatin, have reduced MSX1 expression compared to matched parental, platinum sensitive, lines. Re-expression of MSX1 in resistant lines led to cisplatin sensitisation, increased apoptosis, increased p21 and BAX expression. However, in two TP53-null cell lines, MSX1 failed to change cisplatin sensitivity. Conclusion: Hypomethylation of MSX1 is a biomarker of resistant HGSOC disease at presentation and identifies a novel mechanism of platinum drug resistance. Bisulphite converted DNA from the 86 samples were hybridised to the Illumina Infinium 27k Human Methylation Beadchip v1.2

Project description:Optimal cytoreduction to no residual disease (R0) correlates with improved disease outcome in the management of high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) patients. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) followed by interval debulking surgery (IDS) offers an alternate approach to management of HGSOC patients to achieve complete resection. This study assessed proteomic alterations in matched, chemotherapy naïve and NACT-treated patients tumors obtained from HGSOC patients with suboptimal (R1) versus optimal (R0) debulking at IDS. We describe distinct proteome profiles in pre- and post-NACT HGSOC tumors correlating with residual disease status providing prognostic biomarkers for residual disease at IDS as well as candidate proteins associated with NACT resistance warranting further pre-clinical investigation.

Project description:Large independent analyses on cancer cell lines followed by functional studies have identified Schlafen 11 (SLFN11), a putative helicase, as the strongest predictor of sensitivity to DNA-damaging agents (DDA), including platinum. However, its role as a prognostic biomarker is undefined, partially due to the lack of validated methods to score SLFN11 in human tissues. Here, we implemented a pipeline to quantify SLFN11 in human cancer samples. By analyzing a cohort of high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) specimens prior platinum-based chemotherapy treatment, we show, for the first time, that SLFN11 density in both the neoplastic and microenvironmental components was independently associated with favorable outcome. We observed SLFN11 expression in both infiltrating innate and adaptive immune cells, and analyses in a second, independent, cohort revealed that SLFN11 is associated with immune activation in HGSOC. We found that platinum treatments activated immune-related pathways in ovarian cancer cells in a SLFN11-dependent manner, representative of tumor-immune transactivation. Moreover, SLFN11 expression was induced in activated, isolated, immune cell subpopulations, hinting that SLFN11 in the immune compartment may be an indicator of immune transactivation. In summary, we propose SLFN11 is a dual biomarker capturing simultaneously interconnected immunological and cancer-cell-intrinsic functional dispositions associated with sensitivity to DDA treatment.

Project description:Gene copy number changes, cancer stem cell (CSC) increases, and platinum chemotherapy resistance contribute to poor prognosis in patients with recurrent high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC). CSC phenotypes involving Wnt-b-catenin and aldehyde dehydrogenase activities, platinum resistance, and tumor initiating frequency are here associated with spontaneous genetic gains, including genes encoding KRAS, MYC and FAK, in a new murine model of ovarian cancer (KMF). Noncanonical FAK signaling was sufficient to sustain human and KMF tumorsphere proliferation, CSC survival, and platinum resistance. Increased FAK tyrosine phosphorylation occurred in HGSOC patient tumors surviving neo-adjuvant platinum and paclitaxel chemotherapy and platinum resistant tumorspheres acquired FAK dependence for growth. Importantly, combining a pharmacologic FAK inhibitor with platinum overcame chemoresistance and triggered apoptosis in vitro and in vivo. Knockout, rescue, genomic and transcriptomic analyses collectively identified more than 400 genes regulated along a FAK/b-catenin/Myc axis impacting stemness and DNA repair in HGSOC, with 66 genes gained in a majority of Cancer Genome Atlas samples. Together, these results support combinatorial testing of FAK inhibitors for the treatment of recurrent ovarian cancer.

Project description:Background: Despite an early response to platinum-based chemotherapy in advanced stage high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC), the majority of patients will relapse with drug-resistant disease. Aberrant epigenetic alterations like DNA methylation are common in HGSOC. Differences in DNA methylation are associated with chemoresponse in these patients. The objective of this study was to identify and validate novel epigenetic markers of chemoresponse using genome-wide analysis of DNA methylation in extreme chemoresponsive HGSOC patients. Methods: Genome-wide next-generation sequencing was performed on methylation-enriched tumor DNA of two HGSOC patient groups with residual disease, extreme responders (≥18 months progression-free survival (PFS), n = 8) and non-responders (≤6 months PFS, n = 10) to platinum-based chemotherapy. DNA methylation and expression data of the same patients were integrated to create a gene list. Genes were validated on an independent cohort of extreme responders (n = 21) and non-responders (n = 31) using pyrosequencing and qRT-PCR. In-silico validation was performed using publicly available DNA methylation (n = 91) and expression (n = 208) datasets of unselected advanced stage HGSOC patients. Functional validation of FZD10 on chemosensitivity was done in ovarian cancer cell lines using siRNA-mediated silencing. Results: Integrated genome-wide methylome and expression analysis identified 45 significantly differentially methylated and expressed genes between two chemoresponse groups. Four genes FZD10, FAM83A, MYO18B and MKX were successfully validated in an external set of extreme chemoresponsive HGSOC patients. High FZD10 and MKX methylation was related with extreme responders and high FAM83 and MYO18B methylation with extreme non-responders. In publicly available advanced stage HGSOC datasets, FZD10, MYO18B and MKX methylation levels were associated with PFS. High FZD10 methylation was strongly associated with improved PFS [HR=0.43, 95%CI=0.27-0.65, p=0.0002]. Consistently, low FZD10 expression was associated with improved PFS [HR=1.36, 95%CI=0.99-1.88, p=0.058]. FZD10 silencing caused significant sensitization towards cisplatin treatment in survival assays and apoptosis assays. Conclusions: By applying genome-wide integrated methylome analysis on extreme chemoresponsive HGSOC patients, we identified novel clinically relevant, epigenetically-regulated markers of platinum-sensitivity in HGSOC patients. The clinical potential of these markers in predictive and therapeutic approaches has to be further validated in prospective studies.

Project description:While high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) is the most common histological subtype of ovarian cancer, significant tumor heterogeneity exists. In addition, chemotherapy induces changes in gene expression and alters the mutational profile. To evaluate the notion that patients with HGSOC could be better classified for optimal treatment based on gene expression, we compared genetic variants (by DNA next-generation sequencing [NGS] using a 50 gene Ion Torrent panel) and gene expression (using the NanoString® PanCancer 770 gene Panel) in the tumor from 20 patients with HGSOC before and after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). NGS was performed on plasma cell free DNA (cfDNA) on a select group of patients (n=14) in order to assess the utility of using cfDNA to monitor these changes. A total of 86 genes had significant changes in RNA expression after NACT. Thirty-eight genetic variants (including SNPs) from 6 genes were identified in tumors pre-NACT, while 59 variants from 19 genes were detected in the cfDNA. The number of DNA variants were similar after NACT. Of the 59 variants in the plasma pre-NACT, only 6 persisted; whereas 33 of 38 specific variants in the tumor DNA remained unchanged. Pathway analysis showed the most significant alterations in the cell cycle and DNA damage pathways.
