BIRC6-targeting as potential therapy for advanced, enzalutamide-resistant prostate cancer

ABSTRACT: New transplantable patient-derived xenograft (PDX) CRPC model with intrinsic ENZ-Resistance were used to access therapeutic efficacy of BIRC6 targeting antisense oligonucleotide (ASO-6w2). Molecular pathways associated with the inhibitory effect of ASO-6w2 vs control Scrb ASO were examined by gene expression profiling.

Project description:Enzalutamide (ENZ) is a potent androgen receptor (AR) antagonist with activity in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC); however, progression to ENZ-resistant (ENZ-R) CRPC frequently occurs with rising serum PSA levels, implicating AR full length (ARFL) or variants (AR-Vs) in disease progression. To define functional roles of ARFL and AR-Vs in ENZ-R CRPC, we designed 3 antisense oligonucleotides (ASO) targeting exon 1, intron 1, and exon 8 in AR pre-mRNA to knockdown either ARFL alone, or ARFL plus AR-Vs, and examined their respective effects in LNCaP-derived ENZ-R, as well as M12 and 22Rv1, cells. ENZ-R LNCaP xenografts express high levels of both ARFL and AR-V7 compared to CRPC LNCaP xenografts. In particular, ARFL levels were ~20-fold higher than AR-V7. ENZ-R LNCaP sub-lines, derived by selection from the ENZ xenografts, also expressed uniformly high levels of ARFL and AR-V7 compared to CRPC LNCaP cells. In addition, both ARFL and AR-V7 are highly expressed in the nuclear fractions of ENZ-R-LNCaP. In ENZ-R LNCaP cells, knockdown of ARFL alone, or ARFL plus AR-Vs, similarly induced apoptosis, suppressed cell growth and AR-regulated gene expression in vitro, and delayed tumour growth in vivo. In 22Rv1 cells that are inherently resistant to ENZ, knockdown of both ARFL and AR-Vs more potently suppressed cell growth, AR transcriptional activity and AR-regulated gene expression than knockdown of ARFL alone. These data indicate the AR is an important driver of ENZ resistance, and while the contributions of ARFL and AR-Vs can vary across cell systems, ARFL is the key driver in the ENZ-R LNCaP model. AR targeting strategies against both ARFL and AR-Vs is a rational approach for AR-dependent CRPC. CRPC and ENZ-R LNCaP xenografts were generated as described in: Gleave, M.E., et al., Serum prostate specific antigen levels in mice bearing human prostate LNCaP tumors are determined by tumor volume and endocrine and growth factors.
