Repurposing CD19-directed immunotherapies for pediatric t(8;21) acute myeloid leukemia

ABSTRACT: In contrast to patients with B cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL), patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) have not yet benefited from recent advances in targeted immunotherapy. Repurposing immunotherapies that have been successfully used to target other hematological malignancies could, in case of a shared target antigen, represent a promising opportunity to expand the immunotherapeutic options for AML. Here, we evaluated the expression of CD19 in a large pediatric AML cohort, assessed the ex vivo AML killing efficacy of CD19-directed immunotherapies, and characterized the bone marrow immune microenvironment in pediatric AML, BCP-ALL, and non-leukemic controls. Out of 167 newly diagnosed de novo pediatric AML patients, 18 patients (11%) had CD19+ AML, with 61% carrying the translocation t(8;21)(q22;q22). Among CD19+ samples, we observed a continuum of CD19 expression levels on AML cells. In individuals exhibiting unimodal and high CD19 expression, the antigen was consistently present on nearly all CD34+CD38- and CD34+CD38+ subpopulations. In ex vivo AML-T cell co-cultures, blinatumomab demonstrated substantial AML killing, with an efficacy similar to BCP-ALL. In addition, CAR T cells could effectively eliminate CD19+ AML cells ex vivo. Furthermore, our immunogenomic assessment of the bone marrow immune microenvironment of newly diagnosed pediatric t(8;21) AML revealed that T- and NK cells had a less exhausted and senescent phenotype in comparison to pediatric BCP-ALL. Altogether, our study underscores the promise of CD19-directed immunotherapies for the treatment of pediatric CD19+ AML.

Molecular characterization of AML with ins(21;8)(q22;q22q22) reveals similarity to t(8;21) AML

Project description:In acute myeloid leukemia (AML) non-random clonal chromosome aberrations are detectable in ~55% of adults with AML. Translocation t(8;21)(q22;q22) resulting in the 5'RUNX1/3'RUNX1T1 fusion gene occurs in ~8% of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cases. Also, insertions ins(8;21) and ins(21;8) have been described that show a broad heterogeneity at the molecular level with inserted fragment sizes ranging from 2.4 to 44 Mb. Microarray-based comparative genomic hybridization (arrayCGH) in 49 intermediate-risk AML and RT-PCR-based screening in 532 AML cases allowed the detection of ins(21;8)/ins(8;21) in three cases; arrayCGH and subsequent RT-PCR revealed an ~0.5 Mb sized inserted fragment generating the 5'RUNX1/3'RUNX1T1 fusion gene in one case with a submicroscopic ins(21;8)(q22;q22q22) whereas the other two cases were identified by banding analysis and RT-PCR, respectively. Gene expression profiling (GEP) and a detailed review of the literature highlighted similar biological features of AML cases with ins(21;8)/ins(8;21) and t(8;21)(q22;q22). Our study demonstrates the potential of high-resolution array-based analysis and GEP and provides further evidence that AML with insertions generating the 5'RUNX1/3'RUNX1T1 fusion not only biologically resemble the t(8;21)(q22;q22) AML subgroup, but might also share their prognostically favorable clinical behavior. Thus, similar treatment options should be considered in these patients. An all pairs experiment design type is where all labeled extracts are compared to every other labeled extract.

Classification of pediatric acute myeloid leukemia based on miRNA expression profiles

Project description:Pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease with respect to biology as well as outcome. In this study, we investigated whether known biological subgroups of pediatric AML are reflected by a common microRNA (miRNA) expression pattern. We assayed 665 miRNAs in 165 pediatric AML samples. First, unsupervised clustering was performed to identify patient clusters with common miRNA expression profiles. Our analysis unraveled 14 clusters, seven of which had a known (cyto-)genetic denominator. Finally, a robust classifier was constructed to discriminate six known molecular aberration groups: 11q23-rearrangements, t(8;21)(q22;q22), inv(16)(p13q22), t(15;17)(q21;q22), NPM1 and CEBPA mutations. The classifier achieved accuracies of 89%, 95%, 95%, 98%, 91% and 96%, respectively. Although lower sensitivities were obtained for the NPM1 and CEBPA (32% and 66%), relatively high sensitivities (84%-94%) were attained for the rest. Specificity was high in all groups (87%-100%). Due to a robust double-loop cross validation procedure we employed, the classifier only used expression of 47 miRNAs to generate the aforementioned accuracies. To validate the 47 miRNA signatures, we applied them to a publicly available adult AML dataset. Despite partial overlap of miRNA platforms and known molecular differences between pediatric and adult AML, the signatures performed reasonably well. This corroborates our claim that the reported miRNA signatures are not dominated by sample size bias in the pediatric AML dataset. We conclude that cytogenetic subtypes of pediatric AML have distinct miRNA expression patterns. Note that, reproducibility of the miRNA signatures in adult dataset suggests that the respective aberrations have a similar biology both in pediatric and adult AML

[RNA-seq] Transcriptional regulation of CD19 antigen abundance in B-cell malignancy

Project description:Recent improvements in relapse/refractory B-cell progenitor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL) outcome can be attributed, in part, to the emergence of CD19-directed immune-based therapies including chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy and bi-specific T cell engager (BiTE) therapy. Longitudinal BCP-ALL studies have highlighted individual cases of progressive surface CD19 antigen reduction associated with disease persistence following CAR-T infusion. CD19 genomic deletions and mRNA alternative splicing have been previously shown to confer CAR-T and BiTE resistance, however gene regulatory programs that modulate BCP-ALL CD19 surface antigen abundance remains poorly understood. To address this, we performed genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screening to identify positive and negative regulators of surface CD19 abundance in human BCP-ALL as compared to mature B cell neoplasms, chronic lymphocytic leukemia and B cell lymphoma. Here, we show DNA binding protein, ZNF143, occupies the CD19 promoter and transcriptionally regulates CD19 mRNA expression in human B-cell malignancies. Conversely, we show that RNA-binding protein, NUDT21, limits surface CD19 abundance on BCP-ALL. NUDT21 acts to regulate CD19 3’ UTR length and CD19 mRNA stability. NUDT21 mRNA displays high concordance with CD19 mRNA expression in primary healthy and transformed human B cell progenitors. Using primary BCP-ALL patient single cell data, we show that reduction of CD19 mRNA expression following CAR-T therapy coincides with increased NUDT21 mRNA expression. Importantly, NUDT21 ablation sensitizes BCP-ALL to BiTE and CD19 CAR-T killing ex vivo. These findings reveal previously unknown modulators of CD19 antigen abundance that can be applied to therapeutically enhance or determine resistance to CD19-based therapies in B-cell leukemias.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patient blasts and healthy hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) RNA-sequencing Data

Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with the t(8;21)(q22;q22) chromosomal translocation is among the most common subtypes of AML and produces the AML1-ETO (AE) oncogenic fusion gene. AML1-ETO expression is critical to for t(8;21) AML leukemogenesis and maintenance. Post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression is often mediated through transcript 3'-untranslated regions (UTR). AML1-ETO uses the 3’UTR of the ETO gene, which is not normally expressed in hematopoietic cells. Therefore, the mechanisms regulating AML1-ETO via the 3’UTR are attractive therapeutic targets. In this study, we examine the regulation of AML1-ETO via the 3’UTR. We demonstrate that AML1-ETO primarily uses a 3.7kb isoform of the ETO 3’UTR in both t(8;21) patients and cell lines. Using a luciferase assay approach, we identify an AML1-ETO 3’UTR fragment between 2.8 and 3.4kb which is negatively regulated, increases expression upon inhibition of microRNA biogenesis, and contains a putative let-7 microRNA target site. We show that let-7b directly represses AML1-ETO through this site. An analysis of The Cancer Genome Atlas AML dataset shows that let-7b and let-7 family miRNA expression is significantly lower in t(8;21) AML than other AMLs. Finally, we demonstrate that let-7b-5p inhibits the proliferation of t(8;21) AML cell lines, rescues expression of AML1-ETO target genes, and promotes differentiation. Our findings establish AML1-ETO as a let-7b target gene and suggest that let-7 based therapeutics may be applied to t(8;21) AML.

RUNX1-ETO orchestrates dynamic enhancer promoter communication in t(8;21) Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (DNaseI-Seq)

Project description:Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is caused by mutations in transcriptional and epigenetic regulator genes impairing myeloid differentiation. The t(8;21)(q22;q22) translocation generates the leukemogenic RUNX1-ETO fusion protein which interferes with the hematopoietic master regulator RUNX1. We previously showed that maintenance of t(8;21) AML is dependent on RUNX1-ETO as its depletion causes extensive changes in transcription factor binding and gene expression as well as myeloid differentiation. How changes in gene expression and binding events are connected within a transcriptional network is unclear. To this end, we assigned cis-regulatory elements to each other using promoter-capture chromosomal conformation assays in the presence and absence of RUNX1-ETO. From these data we constructed a RUNX1-ETO dependent dynamic transcriptional network maintaining AML. Integration of these data with gene expression and transcription factor binding data shows that RUNX1-ETO participates in interactions and that differential cis-element interactions are driven by alterations in the binding of RUNX1-ETO regulated transcription factors.
