Project description:Objective: Trastuzumab has been used for the treatment of HER2-positive breast cancer (BC). However, a subset of BC patients exhibited resistance to trastuzumab therapy. Thus, clarifying the molecular mechanism of trastuzumab treatment will be beneficial to improve the treatment of HER2-positive BC patients. In this study, we identified trastuzumab-responsive microRNAs that are involved in the therapeutic effects of trastuzumab. Methods and results: RNA samples were obtained from HER2-positive (SKBR3 and BT474) and HER2-negetive (MCF7 and MDA-MB-231) cells with and without trastuzumab treatment for 6 days. Next, we conducted a microRNA profiling analysis using these samples to screen those microRNAs that were up- or downregulated only in HER2-positive cells. This analysis identified miR-26a and miR-30b as trastuzumab-inducible microRNAs. Transfecting miR-26a and miR-30b induced cell growth suppression in the BC cells by 40% and 32%, respectively. A cell cycle analysis showed that these microRNAs induced G1 arrest in HER2-positive BC cells as trastuzumab did. An Annexin-V assay revealed that miR-26a but not miR-30b induced apoptosis in HER2-positive BC cells. Using the prediction algorithms for microRNA targets, we identified cyclin E2 (CCNE2) as a target gene of miR-30b. A luciferase-based reporter assay demonstrated that miR-30b post-transcriptionally reduced 27% (p=0.005) of the gene expression by interacting with two binding sites in the 3’-UTR of CCNE2. Conclusion: In BC cells, trastuzumab modulated the expression of a subset of microRNAs, including miR-26a and miR-30b. The upregulation of miR-30b by trastuzumab may play a biological role in trastuzumab-induced cell growth inhibition by targeting CCNE2. We obtained microRNA expression profiles of breast cancer cell lines, MCF7, MDA-MB-231, SKBR3, and BT474, with or without trastuzumab (4microgram/mL) treatment.

Project description:Targeting HER2 with lapatinib (L), trastuzumab (T), or the LT combination, is effective in HER2+ breast cancer (BC), but de novo and acquired resistance commonly occur. The purpose of this experiment was to investigate the somatic alterations found in Lapatinib and/or Trastuzumab resistant cells lines.

Project description:Adjuvant docetaxel, carboplatin, and trastuzumab (TCH) is a standard regimen for HER2+ breast cancer. Dual HER2-blockade with lapatinib (L) and trastuzumab demonstrated significant activity in the metastatic and neoadjuvant settings. This study evaluates neoadjuvant TC plus trastuzumab (H) and/or lapatinib (L). This study demonstrated a similar pCR rate with TCH and TCHL and a lower rate of pCR with TCL. Treatment-related toxicity limited the ability for participants to receive protocol-specified chemotherapy and HER2-targeted therapy in the TCHL Arm.

Project description:We established an acquired trastuzumab-resistant model in vitro from a trastuzumab-sensitive, HER2-amplified breast-cancer cell line. A multi-omic strategy was implemented to obtain gene, proteome, and phosphoproteome signatures associated with acquired resistance to trastuzumab in HER2-positive breast cancer, followed by validation in human clinical samples.

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 do not benefit from this treatment, underscoring the need to identify patients for whom chemotherapy + trastuzumab is adequate versus patients requiring additional drugs. The series comprised 24 incisional biopsies of breast carcinomas derived from patients that received neoadjuvant trastuzumab based therapy. Gene expression profiling was performed using RNA from frozen core biopsies from 24 patients with primary HER2-positive (HER2+) tumors treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy and trastuzumab.

Project description:Background: Central nervous system (CNS) metastases represent a major problem in the treatment of HER2-positive breast cancer due to the disappointing efficacy of HER2-targeted therapies in the brain microenvironment. The antibody-drug conjugate ado-trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) has shown efficacy in trastuzumab-resistant systemic breast cancer. Here, we tested the hypothesis that T-DM1 could overcome trastuzumab resistance in preclinical models of brain metastases. Methods: We treated mice bearing BT474 or MDA-MB-361 tumors in the CNS (N=9-11 per group), or cancer cells grown in organotypic brain slice cultures with trastuzumab or T-DM1 at equivalent or equipotent doses. Using intravital imaging, molecular techniques and histological analysis we determined tumor growth, mouse survival, cancer cell apoptosis and proliferation, tumor drug distribution, and HER2 signaling. All statistical tests were two-sided. Results: T-DM1 significantly delayed the growth of HER2-positive breast cancer brain metastases compared to trastuzumab. These findings were consistent between HER2-driven and PI3K-driven tumors. The activity of T-DM1 resulted in a striking survival benefit (median survival for BT474 tumors: 28d for trastuzumab vs 112d for T-DM1, HR=6.2, 95% CI=6.1 to 85.84; P<.001). No difference in drug distribution and HER2-signaling was revealed between the two groups. However, T-DM1 led to a significant increase in tumor cell apoptosis (One-way ANOVA for ApopTag, p<.001), which was associated with mitotic catastrophe. Conclusions: T-DM1 can overcome resistance to trastuzumab therapy in HER2-driven and PI3K-driven breast cancer brain lesions due to the cytotoxicity of the DM1 component. Clinical investigation of T-DM1 for patients with CNS metastases from HER2-positive breast cancer is warranted.

Project description:Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women. Among them, human epidermal growth factor receptor-positive (HER2+) breast cancer is more malignant. Fortunately, many anti-HER2 drugs are currently used in clinical treatments to increase patient survival. However, some HER2+ patients (~15%) still develop drug resistance after receiving trastuzumab treatment, leading to treatment failure. Using CCLE and METABRIC database analyses, we found that fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 (FGFR4) mRNA was highly detected in tumors from HER2+ breast cancer patients (P<0.001) and was associated with poorer survival in breast cancer patients. Through retrospective immunohistochemical staining analysis, we detected higher expression of FGFR4 protein in breast cancer tissues collected from patients who were resistant to trastuzumab therapy compared with breast cancer patients who responded to treatment. An FGFR4 inhibitor (FGF401) effectively inhibits tumor growth in trastuzumab-insensitive patient-derived xenograft (PDX) tumor-bearing mice. For molecular mechanism studies, we demonstrated that HER2/FGFR4 protein complexes were detected on the cell membrane of the tumor tissues in these trastuzumab-insensitive PDX tumor tissues. After trastuzumab treatment in these drug-resistant breast cancer cells, FGFR4 translocates and enters the nucleus. However, trastuzumab-induced nuclear translocation of FGFR4/HER2-intracellular domain protein complex in trastuzumab-resistant cancer cells is blocked by FGF401 treatment. We believe that FGFR4 overexpression and complex formation with HER2 can serve as molecular markers to assist clinicians in identifying trastuzumab-resistant tumors. Our results suggest that FGF401 combined with trastuzumab as adjuvant therapy for patients with trastuzumab-resistant breast cancer may be a potential new treatment strategy.

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).
