Project description:Here we characterize an association between disease progression and DNA methylation in Diffuse Large B cell Lymphoma (DLBCL). By profiling genome-wide DNA methylation at single base-pair resolution in thirteen DLBCL diagnosis-relapse sample pairs, we show DLBCL patients exhibit heterogeneous evolution of tumor methylomes during relapse. We identify differentially methylated regulatory elements and determine a relapse–associated methylation signature converging on key pathways such as transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) receptor activity. We also observe decreased intra-tumor methylation heterogeneity from diagnosis to relapsed tumor samples. Relapse-free patients display lower intra-tumor methylation heterogeneity at diagnosis compared to relapsed patients in an independent validation cohort. Furthermore, intra-tumor methylation heterogeneity is predictive of time to relapse. Therefore, we propose that epigenomic heterogeneity may support or drive the relapse phenotype and can be used to predict DLBCL relapse. Using ERRBS, we profiled genome-wide DNA methylation patterns of non-relapse DLBCL tumor samples at diagnosis, relaspe DLBCL patient samples at diagnosis and relaspe.

Project description:Trastuzumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody directed to the HER2 protein, is the standard-of-care treatment for patients with HER2 positive breast cancer, reducing the risk of relapse and death in patients. Nonetheless, some patients relapse after treatment, underscoring the need to identify patients for whom chemotherapy + trastuzumab is adequate versus patients requiring additional drugs. To search for genes predictive of relapse in HER2-positive breast carcinoma patients treated with adjuvant trastuzumab, we conducted gene expression profiling analysis in 53 cases treated in the clinic with doxorubicin/paclitaxel (AT) followed by cyclophosphamide/methotrexate/fluorouracil (CMF) and trastuzumab. Gene expression profiling was performed using RNA from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues from 53 patients with primary HER2-positive (HER2+) tumors. The series consists in 23 relapsed and 30 non-relapsed cases with similar clinical-pathological characteristics (size, pathological lymph node involvement and estrogen receptor positivity) (3-year median follow up).

Project description:Administration of azithromycin after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for hematological malignancies has been associated with relapse in a randomized phase 3 controlled clinical trial. Studying 240 samples from patients randomized in this trial is a unique opportunity to better understand the mechanisms underlying relapse, the first cause of mortality after transplantation. We used multi-omics on patients' samples to decipher immune alterations associated with azithromycin intake and post-transplant relapsed malignancies. Azithromycin was associated with a network of altered energy metabolism pathways and immune subsets, including T cells biased toward immunomodulatory and exhausted profiles. In vitro, azithromycin exposure inhibited T cells cytotoxicity against tumor cells and impaired T cells metabolism through glycolysis inhibition, mitochondrial genes downregulation, and immunomodulatory genes upregulation, notably SOCS1. These results highlight that azithromycin directly affects immune cells that favor relapse, which raises caution about long-term use of azithromycin treatment in patients at high risk of malignancies.

Project description:In high income countries 90% of the patients achieve complete remission after induction chemotherapy. However, 30-40% of these patients suffer from relapse. These patients face a dismal prognosis, as the majority (>60%) of relapsed patients die within 5 years. As a result, outcome for pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients remains poor and has stabilized over the past 15 years. To prevent or better treat relapse of AML is the best option to improve outcome. Despite patient specific differences, most patients do respond to initial therapy. This suggests that at relapse, mechanisms are active that cause the altered response to chemotherapy. Detailed understanding of mechanisms that cause relapse remain largely elusive. To gain insight in the molecular pathways that characterize relapsed AML, we performed genome wide gene expression profiling on paired initial diagnosis and relapsed AML samples of 23 pediatric AML patients. We used pathway analysis to find which molecular pathways are involved in altered gene expression between diagnosis and relapse samples of individual AML patients. 23 paired diagnosis and relapse bone marrow or peripheral blood samples were collected and cryo-preserved. They were later thawed and processed for hybridization to Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 arrays.

Project description:We undertook a comprehensive clinical and biological investigation of serial medulloblastoma biopsies obtained at diagnosis and relapse. Combined MYC gene family amplifications and P53 pathway defects commonly emerged at relapse, and all patients in this molecular group died of rapidly progressive disease post-relapse. To study this genetic interaction, we investigated a transgenic model of MYCN-driven medulloblastoma and found spontaneous development of Trp53 inactivating mutations. Abrogation of Trp53 function in this model produced aggressive tumors that mimicked the characteristics of relapsed human tumors with combined P53–MYC dysfunction. Restoration of p53 activity, genetic and therapeutic suppression of MYCN all reduced tumor growth and prolonged survival. Our findings identify P53–MYC interactions which emerge at medulloblastoma relapse as biomarkers of clinically aggressive disease that may be targeted therapeutically. There are currently no effective therapies for children with relapsed medulloblastoma. While clinical and biological features of the disease at diagnosis are increasingly well understood, biopsy is rarely performed at relapse and few biological data are available to guide more effective treatments. Here, we show that medulloblastomas develop altered biology at relapse which is predictive of disease course and cannot be detected at diagnosis. We have discovered the emergence of P53–MYC interactions at relapse, as biomarkers of clinically aggressive relapsed disease, which can be modelled and targeted therapeutically in genetically-engineered mice. These data provide clear precedent for the incorporation of biopsy at relapse into routine clinical practice, to direct palliative care and the development of improved treatment strategies. mouse model expression profiles from various mouse Medulloblastoma models MYCN/MYC overexpressing with/without p53 Mutations were compared to human MB expression profiles using Non-negative Matrix Factorization projection in order to sub-type the mouse models

Project description:Background Identification of patients at risk of tuberculosis relapse following treatment would revolutionize clinical trials of new drugs and regimens and facilitate clinical management. The study aim was to determine whether tuberculosis patients who subsequently suffer relapse have different immune responses to mycobacteria in vitro compared to patients who remain cured for two years post-treatment. Methods First episode pulmonary tuberculosis patients were recruited into a surrogate marker study in Cape Town, South Africa. Peripheral blood samples were collected at diagnosis and after two and four weeks of tuberculosis treatment. Diluted blood was cultured with live Mycobacterium tuberculosis for six days and cellular RNA was frozen. Gene expression in samples from ten patients who subsequently relapsed, confirmed by stain genotyping, was compared to those who remained cured using Affymetrix microarrays. Results At diagnosis, the expression of 668 genes was significantly different in samples from patients who subsequently relapsed compared to successfully cured patients, and these differences persisted for at least four weeks. Gene Ontology and biological pathways analyses revealed the most significant difference was up-regulation of genes involved in cytotoxic cell-mediated killing, such as perforin, granulysin and fas ligand. Results were confirmed by qRT-PCR in a wider patient cohort. Conclusions These data show that patients who will subsequently relapse exhibit altered immune responses at diagnosis, including excessively robust cytolytic responses to M. tuberculosis in vitro, compared to patients who will achieve durable cure. Together with microbiological and clinical indices, these differences could be exploited for patient stratification in drugs trials, or for host-directed therapy development. Venous blood samples were diluted in culture medium and stimulated with live M. tuberculosis for 6 days. Samples from 10 TB patients who subsequently relapsed and 10 patients whore remained disease-free for 2 years. Samples collected at TB diagnosis and after 2 weeks or 4 weeks of treatment of first TB episode.

Project description:Adoptive cell therapies (ACT) with cytotoxic T-cell targeting melanocytic antigens can achieve remissions in metastatic melanoma patients, but tumours frequently relapse. To study the underlying mechanisms of resistance we have generated a genetically engineered mouse melanoma model that faithfully recapitulates tumour regression, remission and relapse as seen in patients. HCmel3 mouse melanoma cells were injected into syngneic C57/BL6 (H-2b) mice. We performed transcriptional profiling of control, relapsed and re-transplanted relapsed tumours to characterize the changes in gene expression patterns associated with the respective treament conditions. In addition, we analysed the transcription profile of ACT relapsed melanoma cultures in vitro and the transcriptional response to the inflammatory cytokine Tnf-alpha. The study aimed to identify molecular mechanisms contributing to ACT resistance to optimize therapeutic regimens in the clinic. Total RNA obtained from five biological replicates (rep) of control, relapsed and re-transplanted HCmel3 mouse melanomas in vivo and two biological replicates (rep) of HCmel3 cells, HCmel3-R (relapse) cells and Tnf-alpha treated HCmel3 cells in vitro.

Project description:To understand the development of new psoriasis lesions, we studied a group of moderate-to-severe psoriasis patients who experienced a relapse after ceasing efalizumab (anti-CD11a, Raptiva, Genentech). There were increased CD3+ T cells, neutrophils, CD11c+ and CD83+ myeloid DCs, but no increase in CD1c+ resident myeloid DCs. In relapsed lesions, there were many CD11c+CD1c-, inflammatory myeloid DCs identified by TNFSF10/TRAIL, TNF, and iNOS. CD11c+ cells in relapsed lesions co-expressed CD14 and CD16 in situ. Efalizumab induced an improvement in many psoriasis genes, and during relapse, the majority of these genes reversed back to a lesional state. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) of the transcriptome of relapsed tissue showed that many of the gene sets known to be present in psoriasis were also highly enriched in relapse. Hence, on ceasing efalizumab, T cells and myeloid cells rapidly enter the skin to cause classic psoriasis. To determine the transcsriptome of skin samples in 4 responding patients who relapsed after receiving efalizumab for treatment of psoriasis, using paired baseline non-lesional (NL, n=2); lesional (LS, n=4);week 12 post-treatment (week 12, n=4), and relapse (n=4).
