Tailoring heated intra-peritoneal Mitomycin C for peritoneal metastases originating from colorectal carcinoma – A translational approach to improve survival

ABSTRACT: Patients with peritoneal metastases (PM) originating from colorectal carcinoma (CRC) are curatively treated by cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intra-peritoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) with Mitomycin C (MMC). We aim to improve patient selection and personalize treatment for patients treated with HIPEC by predicting MMC sensitivity. MMC sensitivity was determined for 12 CRC cell lines using two separate assays. Thirty-seven genes related to the FA-BRCA pathway, ATM-ATR pathway and enzymatic activation of MMC were correlated on expression array platform to MMC sensitivity. Low sensitivity correlated with a decrease in BLM (p=0.01) and BRCA2 (p=0.02) on mRNA expression level. Both genes are part of the Fanconi Anaemia-BRCA (FA-BRCA) pathway and therefore, functionality of the FA-BRCA pathway in cell lines was determined using chromosomal breakage assay and Western Blot for key protein FANCD2. However, FA-BRCA pathway functionality showed no correlation to MMC sensitivity. BLM was further analysed by staining for the corresponding protein with immunohistochemistry (IHC) on both CRC cell lines and patient material. In cell lines, weak intensity staining by IHC correlated to high sensitivity (p=0.04) to MMC. High BLM protein expression was significantly correlated to a decreased survival in patients after CRS and HIPEC (p=0.04). We are the first to have found a possible predictive biomarker for PM with CRC.

Project description:Purpose:Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) commonly metastasizes to the brain and predicts poor prognosis with limited therapeutic options. TNBC frequently harbors BRCA mutations translating to platinum sensitivity; platinum response may be augmented by additional suppression of DNA repair mechanisms through poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase (PARP) inhibition. We evaluated brain penetrance and efficacy of Carboplatin +/- the PARP inhibitor ABT888, and investigated gene expression changes in murine intracranial (IC) TNBC models stratified by BRCA and molecular subtype status. Experimental design:Athymic mice were inoculated intra-cerebrally with BRCA-mutant: SUM149 (basal), MDA-MB-436 (claudin-low), or BRCA-wild-type: MDA-MB-468 (basal), MDA-MB-231BR (claudin-low) TNBC cells and treated with PBS control (IP, weekly), Carboplatin (50mg/kg/week, IP), ABT888 (25mg/kg/day, OG), or their combination. DNA-damage (?-H2AX) and apoptosis (cleaved-Caspase-3(cC3)) were assessed via IHC of IC tumors. Gene expression of BRCA-mutant IC tumors was measured. Results: Carboplatin+/-ABT888 significantly improved survival in BRCA-mutant IC models compared to control, but did not improve survival in BRCA-wild-type IC models. Carboplatin+ABT888 revealed a modest survival advantage versus Carboplatin in BRCA-mutant models. ABT888 yielded a marginal survival benefit in the MDA-MB-436 but not in the SUM149 model. BRCA-mutant SUM149 expression of ?-H2AX and cC3 proteins was elevated in all treatment groups compared to Control, while BRCA-wild-type MDA-MB-468 cC3 expression did not increase with treatment. Carboplatin treatment induced common gene expression changes in BRCA-mutant models.Conclusions: Carboplatin+/-ABT888 improves survival in BRCA-mutant IC TNBC models with corresponding DNA damage and gene expression changes. Combination therapy represents a promising treatment strategy for patients with TNBC brain metastases warranting further clinical investigation. reference x sample
