Project description:Rapid resistance to BRAF inhibitors in BRAFV600-mutant metastatic melanoma has produced an urgent need for new treatment options. BRAF inhibitor resistance commonly involves reactivation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling and yet inhibition of downstream kinases has not circumvented resistance, partly because MAPK is regulated via a complex network of feedback mechanisms that influence pathway rebound. To examine the transcriptome responses of melanoma cells to MAPK inhibition, a panel of 11 BRAFV600-mutant melanoma cell lines were treated with control (DMSO), 100nM dabrafenib alone (i.e BRAF inhibitor monotherapy) or 100nM dabrafenib + 10nM trametinib (i.e combination BRAF + MEK inhibition) for 24h.

Project description:The Ras/MEK/ERK pathway has been the primary focus of targeted therapies in melanoma, given that it is aberrantly activated in almost 80% of human cutaneous melanomas (~50% BRAFV600 mutations and ~30% NRAS mutations). While targeted therapies have yielded success in BRAFV600 mutant melanoma patients, such therapies have been ineffective in NRAS mutant melanomas in part due to their cytostatic effects and primary resistance in this patient population. Here, we demonstrate that increased Rho/MRTF-pathway activation correlates with high intrinsic resistance to trametinib, a MEK inhibitor, in a panel of NRAS mutant melanoma cell lines. Combination of trametinib with the Rho/MRTF-pathway inhibitor, CCG-222740, synergistically reduced cell viability in NRAS mutant melanoma cell lines in vitro. Furthermore, the combination of CCG-222740 with trametinib induced apoptosis and reduced clonogenicity in the highly trametinib-resistant SK-Mel-147 cells. These findings suggest a role of the Rho/MRTF-pathway in high intrinsic trametinib resistance to a subset of NRAS mutant melanoma cell lines and highlights the potential of concurrently targeting the Rho/MRTF-pathway and MEK in NRAS mutant melanomas.

Project description:The first clinical trial testing the combination of targeted therapy with a BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib and immunotherapy with a CTLA-4 antibody ipilimumab was terminated early due to significant liver toxicities, possibly due to paradoxical activation of the MAPK pathway by BRAF inhibitors in tumors with wild type BRAF. MEK inhibitors can potentiate the MAPK inhibition in tumor, while potentially alleviating the unwanted paradoxical MAPK activation. With a mouse model of syngeneic BRAFV600E driven melanoma (SM1), we tested whether the addition of the MEK inhibitor trametinib would enhance the immunosensitization effects of the BRAF inhibitor dabrafenib. Combination of dabrafenib and trametinib with pmel-1 adoptive cell transfer (ACT) showed complete tumor regression. Bioluminescent imaging and tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) phenotyping showed increased effector infiltration to tumors with dabrafenib, trametinib or dabrafenib plus trametinib with pmel-1 ACT combination. Intracellular IFN gamma staining of the TILs and in vivo cytotoxicity studies showed trametinib was not detrimental to the effector functions in vivo. Dabrafenib increased tumor associated macrophages and T regulatory cells (Tregs) in the tumors, which can be overcome by addition of trametinib. Microarray analysis revealed increased melanoma antigen, MHC expression, and global immune-related gene upregulation with the triple combination therapy. Given the up-regulation of PD-L1 seen with dabrafenib and/or trametinib combined with antigen specific ACT, we tested the triple combination of dabrafenib, trametinib with anti-PD1 therapy, and observed superior anti-tumor effect to SM1 tumors. Our findings support the testing of these combinations in patients with BRAFV600E mutant metastatic melanoma. SM1 tumors were implanted into C57BL/6 mice. Mice were treated by ACT of pmel-1 splenocytes or C57BL/6 splenocytes as control. Pmel-1 treated mice were additionally treated with either vehicle, dabrafenib, trametinib, or combination of both drugs and control mice were treated with vehicle or combination of both drugs.

Project description:Approximately 50% of melanomas harbor an activating BRAFV600E mutation. Standard of care involves a combination of inhibitors targeting mutant BRAF and MEK1/2, the substrate for BRAF in the MAPK pathway. PTEN loss of function mutations occur in 40% of BRAFV600E melanomas, resulting in increased PI3K/AKT activity that enhances resistance to BRAF/MEK combination inhibitor therapy. To compare the response of PTEN null to PTEN wild type cells in an isogenic background, CRISPR was used to knock out PTEN in the A375 melanoma cell line that harbors a BRAFV600E mutation. Kinome profiling was performed using the parental line and two PTEN KO clones (5 and 11), treated with DMSO, or treated with 100nM dabrafenib and 10nM trametinib for 1 day or for 7 days. PTEN KO cells showed dramatically increased binding of HER3 and AKT3 compared to wild type. The activation of the SOX10-FOXD3-HER3-AKT axis in PTEN KO cells could be targeted with the ERBB/HER inhibitor neratinib.

Project description:We described the metabolic alterations in glioblastoma model systems elicited by AURKA inhibition. By utilizing proteomic and transcriptomic analyses coupled with untargeted polar and nonpolar metabolite analysis by LC/MC, we found that AURKA inhibition leads to a profound reprogramming of tumor metabolism, which suppresses c-Myc protein levels and increases pro-survival PGC1α which in concert mediate a suppression of glycolysis and a concomitant activation of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) that is fueled by enhanced fatty acid oxidation (FAO). We targeted these metabolic aberrations with novel combination therapies involving clinical approved drugs in glioblastoma system both in vitro and in vivo. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying cellularisation and identified distinct classes of up-regulated and down-regulated genes in Alisertib resistant cells.
