ATM inhibition enhances cancer immunotherapy by promoting mtDNA leakage/cGAS-STING activation [4T1 in vitro]

ABSTRACT: Novel approaches are needed to boost the efficacy of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy. Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM) protein plays a central role in sensing DNA double strand breaks and coordinating their repair. Recent data indicated that ATM might be a promising target to enhance immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy. However, the molecular mechanism involved is not clearly elucidated. Here we show that ATM inhibition could potentiate ICB therapy by promoting cytoplasmic leakage of mitochondrial DNA and activation of the cGAS/STING pathway. Genetic depletion of ATM in murine cancer cells significantly delayed tumor growth in syngeneic mouse hosts in a T-cell dependent manner. Furthermore, chemical inhibition of ATM significantly potentiated anti-PD1 therapy of mouse tumors. ATM inhibition potently activated the cGAS/STING pathway and enhanced lymphocyte infiltration into the tumor microenvironment by downregulating TFAM, which led to mitochondrial DNA leakage into the cytoplasm. Moreover, our analysis of data from a large patient cohort indicated that ATM mutations, especially nonsense mutations, predicted for clinical benefits for ICB therapy. Our study therefore provides strong evidence that ATM may serve both as a therapeutic target and a biomarker to enable ICB therapy.

Cell-autonomous Inflammation of BRCA1-deficient Ovarian Cancers Drives Intrinsic Immunoreactivity and Immune Resistance through STING and VEGF

Project description:BRCA1 loss leads to tumor cell transcriptional reprogramming, resulting in a DNA damage-driven, mandatory cell-autonomous type I IFN inflammatory activation mediated by STING and TREX1/2. PARP inhibition augmented this immunoreactivity, creating contextual lethality to dual immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) in vivo. BRCA1-deficient tumor can escape T-cell inflammation through targeted deletion or methylation of the DNA sensing/IFN pathway genes, such as STING, IFNB1 or the chemokine CCL5. Alternatively, BRCA-mutated carcinomas retaining immunoreactivity upregulate their VEGF-A expression driven by STING, which mediates immune resistance and tumor progression. STING elimination attenuated tumor growth and abrogated therapeutic resistance to dual ICB. VEGF-A blockade synergized with immune checkpoint blockade and/or PARP inhibition to control outgrowth of Brca1-/- ovarian tumors, offering opportunities for rational combination therapy of cancers with homologous recombination repair deficiency (HRD).

SETD2 loss and ATR inhibition synergistically promote cGAS signaling and immunotherapy response in renal cell carcinoma

Project description:Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) demonstrates durable clinical benefit only in a minority of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients. Identifying molecular features that determine response and developing approaches to enhance the response remain an urgent clinical need. Here we found that, in multiple RCC cell lines, targeting the ATR-CHK1 axis with pharmacological inhibitors increased cytosolic DNA accumulation, activated the cGAS-IRF3-dependent cytosolic DNA sensing pathway, and resulted in the inflammatory cytokine expression. SETD2 mutated RCC cell lines or tumor samples were associated with preferential ATR-CHK1 activation over ATM-CHK2 activation. SETD2 knockdown promoted the cytosolic DNA sensing pathway and conferred greater sensitivity in response to ATR-CHK1 inhibition. In murine Renca tumors, Setd2 knockdown and ATR inhibitor VE822 synergistically promoted cytosolic DNA sensing pathway, immune cell infiltration, and immune checkpoint protein expression. Setd2 deficient Renca tumors demonstrated greater vulnerability to ICB monotherapy or in combination with VE822 than Setd2 proficient tumors. SETD2 mutations were associated with a higher response rate and prolonged overall survival in ICB-treated RCC patients, but not in non-ICB-treated RCC patients. This study provides a mechanism-based guidance to develop more personalized combination therapy regimens for RCC patients with SETD2 mutations.

SETDB1-TRIM28 complex suppresses antitumor immunity [CRISPR/Cas9 screen]

Project description:Epigenetic mechanism contributes to immune landscapes in cancer. Here we identify the SETDB1-TRIM28 complex as a critical suppressor of antitumor immunity. An epigenetic CRISPR-Cas9 screen of 1,218 chromatin regulators identified TRIM28 as a novel suppressor of PD-L1 expression. We revealed that expression of the SETDB1-TRIM28 complex negatively correlates with infiltration of effector CD8+ T cells. Inhibition of SETDB1-TRIM28 simultaneously upregulates PD-L1 and activates the cGAS-STING innate immune response to increase infiltration of CD8+ T cells. Mechanistically, SETDB1-TRIM28 inhibition leads to micronuclei formation in cytoplasm, a known activator of the cGAS-STING pathway. Thus, SETDB1-TRIM28 inhibition bridges the innate and adaptive immunity. Indeed, SETDB1 knockout enhances the antitumor effects of immune checkpoint blockade anti-PD-L1 in an ovarian cancer mouse model in a cGAS dependent manner. Our findings establish SETDB1-TRIM28 complex as a regulator of antitumor immunity and its loss activates cGAS-STING innate immunity to boost antitumor effects of immune checkpoint blockades.

Immunologic and clinical activity to ICB combinations in DAPPER Leiomyosarcoma cohort

Project description:Non-inflamed (cold) tumors such as leiomyosarcoma (LMS) do not benefit from immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) monotherapy. Combining ICB with angiogenesis-, or poly-ADP ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors may increase tumor immunogenicity by altering the immune cell composition of the tumor microenvironment (TME). The DAPPER phase II study evaluated the safety, immunologic, and clinical activity of ICB-based combinations in pre-treated LMS patients.

Riluzole Enhancing anti-PD-1 Efficacy by Activating cGAS/STING Signaling

Project description:Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer mortality in the US. Although immune checkpoint blockade therapies such as anti-PD-1/PD-L1 have had successes in some patients, the response rate is still low. We have found that riluzole, a well-tolerated FDA-approved oral medicine for treating amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, increased intratumoral CD8+ T cells and suppressed tumor growth of colon cancer cells in syngeneic immune competent mice. Riluzole-mediated tumor suppression was dependent on the presence of CD8+ T cells. Riluzole activates the cytosolic DNA sensing cGAS/STING pathway and increases expression of interferon β (IFNβ) and IFNβ-regulated genes including CXCL10. Inhibition of ATM, but not ATR, results in a synergistic increase in IFNβ expression, suggesting that riluzole-dependent double strand breaks contribute to cGAS/STING activation. Knockout of cGAS or STING significantly attenuated expression of IFNβ and CXCL10 and nearly abolished suppression of tumor growth. Riluzole failed to increase intratumoral CD8+ T cells in STING knockout tumors. These results indicate that riluzole recruits CD8+ T cells into the tumor microenvironment through tumor cell intrinsic STING activation. When riluzole was combined with a PD-1 antibody, the treatment was more effective in suppressing tumor growth in vivo. Taken together, our studies indicate that riluzole inhibits tumor growth through the activation of cGAS/STING signaling and may increase the efficacy of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapies in colon cancer.
