Cross species transcriptomic signatures predict response to MK2 inhibition in mouse models of chronic inflammation

ABSTRACT: Translating observations from preclinical models to patients is one of the most pressing challenges in biomedical research. Part of the challenge derives from the necessity of studying preclinical therapeutic responses in genetically and environmentally homogenous mouse models, which exhibit less variability than genetically and environmentally heterogeneous humans. This problem is especially relevant for inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), which are genetically complex and exhibit significant inter-patient heterogeneity in disease presentation and therapeutic response. Here, we show that mouse models of IBD exhibit variable responses to inhibition a MK2, a pro-inflammatory serine/threonine kinase, and that MK2 inhibition suppresses inflammation by targeting inflammatory monocytes and neutrophils. Using a computational approach (TransComp-R) that allows for cross-species comparison of transcriptomic features, we identified an IBD patient subgroup that is predicted to respond to MK2 inhibition and an independent preclinical model of chronic intestinal inflammation predicted to be non-responsive, which we validated experimentally. Thus, cross-species mouse-human translation approaches can help to identify patient subpopulations in which to deploy new therapies.

Cross-species comparative transcriptomics examining the role of Type-2 immunity in acute colitis

Project description:Most preclinical models of IBD were developed in mice which share 85% genomic homology with humans and are genetically tractable. However, rats have historically been the model of choice for immunologic, cardiovascular, and neurologic diseases because they more closely recapitulate human physiology6. Recent work on the role of microbial dysbiosis in IBD has also shown that rat microbiota is more closely related to those of humans than mice7. Taken together, this suggests that a single preclinical model may not be optimal for delineating the molecular pathways involved in IBD pathogenesis. Previous research in rat models of IBD have focused primarily on characterization of clinical score and histopathological findings8, with a lack of systematic investigation into potential molecular pathways affected, thereby making it difficult to integrate this model with other preclinical and clinical research. In the current study, we have undertaken a systematic transcriptomic analysis of a rat model of experimental colitis along with a three-way comparison between an established mouse preclinical model and available human clinical datasets in an effort to identify conserved immunological pathways in IBD.

Therapeutic IL-6 trans-signalling inhibition by olamkicept (sgp130Fc) in patients with active inflammatory bowel disease

Project description:Background A large unmet therapeutic need exists in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Inhibition of interleukin (IL)-6 appears to be effective, but the therapeutic benefit of a complete IL-6/IL-6R blockade is limited by profound immunosuppression. Evidence has emerged, that chronic pro-inflammatory activity of IL-6 is mainly mediated by trans-signalling via a complex of IL-6 bound to soluble IL-6R engaging the gp130 receptor without the need of membrane bound IL6R. We have developed a decoy protein, sgp130Fc, which exclusively blocks IL-6 pro-inflammatory trans-signalling and has shown efficacy in preclinical models of IBD, without signs of immunosuppression. Methods We present a 12-week, open label, prospective phase IIa trial (FUTURE) in 16 patients with active IBD treated with the trans-signalling inhibitor olamkicept (sgp130Fc) to assess molecular mechanisms, safety and effectiveness of IL-6 trans-signalling blockade in vivo. We performed in-depth molecular profiling at various time points before and after therapy induction to identify the mechanism of action of olamkicept. Results Olamkicept was well tolerated and induced clinical response in 44% and clinical remission in 19% of patients. Clinical effectiveness coincided with target inhibition (reduction of phosphorylated STAT3) and marked transcriptional changes in the inflamed mucosa. An olamkicept-specific transcriptional signature, distinguishable from remission signatures of anti-TNF (infliximab) or anti-integrin (vedolizumab) therapies was identified. Conclusion Our data suggest that blockade of IL-6 trans-signaling holds large promise for the therapy of IBD and should undergo full clinical development as a new immunoregulatory therapy of IBD.

Tumor-selective effects of active RAS inhibition in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

Project description:Broad-spectrum RAS inhibition holds the potential to benefit roughly a quarter of human cancer patients whose tumors are driven by RAS mutations. RMC-7977 is a highly selective inhibitor of the active GTP-bound forms of KRAS, HRAS, and NRAS, with affinity for both mutant and wild type (WT) variants. As >90% of human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cases are driven by activating mutations in KRAS, we assessed the therapeutic potential of RMC-7977 in a comprehensive range of PDAC models, including human and murine cell lines, patient-derived organoids, human PDAC explants, subcutaneous and orthotopic cell-line or patient-derived xenografts, syngeneic allografts, and genetically engineered mouse models. We observed broad and pronounced anti-tumor activity across these models following direct RAS inhibition at doses and concentrations that were well-tolerated in vivo. Pharmacological analyses revealed divergent responses to RMC-7977 in tumor versus normal tissues. Treated tumors exhibited waves of apoptosis along with sustained proliferative arrest whereas normal tissues underwent only transient decreases in proliferation, with no evidence of apoptosis. Together, these data establish a strong preclinical rationale for the use of broad-spectrum RAS inhibition in the setting of PDAC.

The effects of kiwifruit extracts on colonic gene and protein expression levels in interleukin 10 gene-deficient mice.

Project description:Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is a term describing a collection of conditions characterised by chronic inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal tract involving an inappropriate immune response to commensal microorganisms in a genetically susceptible host. Four kiwifruit extracts, aqueous and ethyl acetate extracts of gold kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis) or green kiwifruit (A. deliciosa), have previously demonstrated anti-inflammatory activity using in vitro models of IBD. This study examined whether these kiwifruit extracts had immune modulating effects in vivo against inflammatory processes known to be increased in patients with IBD. KFEs were used as a dietary intervention in Il10-/- mice (an in vivo model of IBD) and the C57BL/6J background strain in a 3 x 2 factorial design. While all Il10-/- mice developed significant colonic inflammation compared to the C57BL/6J mice, this was not affected by the inclusion of KFE in the diet. Whole genome gene and protein expression level profiling indicated that KFEs influenced immune signalling pathways and metabolic processes within the colonic tissue; however, the effects were subtle. In particular, adaptive immune pathways were reduced by three out of four kiwifruit extracts, with greater reduction seen in the C57BL/6J mice. This suggests that while immune-modulating activity was present in vivo, KFEs did not reduce inflammatory processes relevant to IBD. SUBMITTER_CITATION: Edmunds, Shelley Jane.

Molecular Evaluation of Patient-Derived Colorectal Cancer Explants as a Pre-clinical Mouse Model of Colorectal Cancer

Project description:Mouse models have been developed to investigate colorectal cancer etiology and evaluate new anti-cancer therapies. While genetically engineered and carcinogen-induced mouse models have provided important information with regard to the mechanisms underlying the oncogenic process, xenograft models remain the standard for the evaluation of new chemotherapy and targeted drug treatments for clinical use. However, it remains unclear if drug efficacy data obtained from xenograft models translate into clinically-relevant treatment modalities. In this study, we have generated a panel of 28 patient-derived colorectal cancer explants (PDCCEs), an extension of our previous work, by direct transplantation of human colorectal cancer (CRC) tissues into NOD-SCID mice. A comprehensive histological and molecular evaluation of PDCCEs and their corresponding patient tumor demonstrates that PDCCEs maintain histological features and global biology through multiple passages. Furthermore, we demonstrate that in vivo sensitivity of PDCCEs to oxaliplatin can predict patient outcomes. Our findings suggest that PDCCEs maintain similarity to the patient tumor from which they are derived and can serve as a reliable preclinical model that can be incorporated into future strategies to optimize individual therapy for patients with CRC. 28 human primary colorectal and 37 mouse derived colorectal explant tumors

Cyclin-dependent kinase 9 is a therapeutic target for anti-TNF resistant inflammatory bowel disease

Project description:The treatment of auto-inflammatory diseases is often limited by resistance to single cytokine blockade, primarily anti-TNF antibodies. This is a particularly important cause of treatment failure in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The transcription factor T-bet is a critical regulator of intestinal homeostasis and is genetically linked to mucosal inflammation by causal variation in its binding sites. However, transcription factors such as T-bet are difficult to target therapeutically. Using CDK9 inhibitors, we show that modulation of P-TEFb (cyclinT1/CDK9), a transcriptional elongation factor downstream of T-bet, potently represses genes responsible for pro-inflammatory signalling, and in particular genes regulated by T-bet. Remarkably, CDK9 inhibition targets genes that are highly expressed in anti-TNF resistant IBD and that predict non-response to anti-TNF therapy. Collectively, our findings reveal CDK9 as a potential target in anti-TNF resistant IBD, which has the potential for rapid translation to the clinic.

Peritoneal metastasis of colorectal cancer (pmCRC): Identification of predictive molecular signatures by a novel preclinical platform of matching pmCRC PDX/PD3D models

Project description:14 PDX models of pmCRC were established, including 9 matched PD3D/PDX models, and treatment response to 17 SoC and targeted therapies was monitored, which resulted in drug-dependent inter- and intra-patient specific growth inhibition. Analysis of the molecular data of the models and patient tissue resulted in the identification of predictive biomarkers for treatment with 5-FU, irinotecan, trametinib, erlotinib, cetuximab and avastin, oxaliplatin, selumetinib, docetaxel and everolimus. Conclusions: The establishment of a preclinical drug testing platform based on in vitro and in vivo matched pmCRC models, molecularly characterized by multi-omics technology, facilitated the identification of predictive biomarkers for treatment response, as well as cancer relevant signatures for effective therapies, ready for validation in clinical cohorts.

Exosomes from mesenchymal stromal cells reduce murine colonic inflammation via a macrophage-dependent mechanism

Project description:Conventional treatments for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have multiple potential side effects. Therefore, alternative treatments are desperately needed. In the present study, we proposed a new therapeutic tool for the treatment of IBD in murine pre-clinical models by using MSC-Exos. We demonstrated that the infused MSC-Exos are immunotolerated by the host, which is convenient for a future clinical application of MSC-Exos in IBD. To understand the molecular basis mediating the anticolitic benefit of MSC-Exos, we performed proteomic analysis using iTRAQ technology to detect the protein expression profiles in MSC-Exos and the corresponding supernatants from their parent cell MSCs. Proteomic analysis revealed that MSC-Exos were enriched in proteins involved in regulating multiple biological processes associated with the anti-colitic benefit of MSC-Exos. Particularly, metallothionein-2 in MSC-Exos was required for the suppression of inflammatory responses in macrophages. Taken together, MSC-Exos are critical regulators of inflammatory responses and may be promising candidates for IBD treatment.
