Project description:Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related death among American men. Prostate tumor cells exhibit significant tropism for the bone and once metastasis occurs, survival rates fall significantly. Current treatment options are not curative and focus on symptom management. Immunotherapies are rapidly emerging as a possible therapeutic option for a variety of cancers including prostate cancer, however, variable patient response remains a concern. Chemotherapies, like cabozantinib, can have immune-priming effects which sensitize tumors to immunotherapies. Additionally, lower doses of chemotherapy can be used in this context which can reduce patient side effects. We hypothesized that a combination of chemotherapy (cabozantinib) and immunotherapy (Interleukin-27 (IL-27)) could be used to treat bone-metastatic prostate cancer and exert pro-osteogenic effects. IL-27 is a multi-functional cytokine, which promotes immune cell recruitment to tumors, while also promoting bone repair. To test this hypothesis, in vivo experiments were performed where syngeneic C57BL/6J mice were implanted intratibially with TRAMP-C2ras-Luc cells that are able to form tumors in bone. Immunotherapy was administered in the form of intramuscular gene therapy, delivering plasmid DNA encoding a reporter gene (Lucia), and/or a therapeutic gene (IL-27). Sonoporation was used to aid gene delivery. Following immunotherapy, the animals received either cabozantinib or a vehicle control by oral gavage. Bioluminescence imaging was used to monitor tumor size over time. Combinatorial therapy inhibited tumor growth and improved survival. Further, RNA sequencing was used to investigate the mechanisms involved. Microcomputed tomography and differentiation assays indicated that the combination therapy improved bone quality by enhancing osteoblast differentiation and inhibiting osteoclast differentiation. Our conclusion is that a chemo-immunotherapy approach such as the one examined in this work has potential to emerge as a novel therapeutic strategy for treating bone-metastatic prostate cancer. This approach will enable a significant reduction in chemotherapy-associated toxicity, enhance sensitivity to immunotherapy, and improve bone quality.

Project description:Cabozantinib is an oral multikinase inhibitor approved for treatment in metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC). We hypothesized that neoadjuvant cabozantinib could downstage localized tumors, facilitating partial nephrectomy, and facilitating surgery in patients with locally advanced tumors that would require significant adjacent organ resection. We, therefore, conducted a phase 2, single-arm trial of cabozantinib treatment for 12 weeks in 17 patients with locally advanced biopsy-proven non-metastatic clear cell RCC before surgical resection. Six patients (35%) experienced a partial response, and 11 patients (65%) had stable disease. We identified that plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA), VEGF, c-MET, Gas6, and AXL were significantly increased while VEGFR2 decreased during cabozantinib treatments. CD8+ T cells were activated in the blood, expressing the proliferation marker Ki67 and activation markers HLA-DR and CD38. Cabozantinib treatment depleted myeloid populations acutely. Importantly, immune niches made up of the stem-like CD8+ T cells and antigen presenting cells were increased in every patient. These data suggest that cabozantinib treatment was clinically active and safe in the neoadjuvant setting in patients with locally advanced non-metastatic clear cell RCC and activated the anti-tumor CD8+ T cell response. The trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov under registration no. NCT04022343.

Project description:Anti-angiogenic therapy is commonly used for the treatment of CRC. Although patients derive some clinical benefit, treatment resistance inevitably occurs. The MET signaling pathway has been proposed to be a major contributor of resistance to anti-angiogenic therapy. MET is upregulated in response to VEGF pathway inhibition and plays an essential role in tumorigenesis and progression of tumors. In this study we set out to determine the efficacy of cabozantinib in a preclinical CRC PDTX model. We demonstrate potent inhibitory effects on tumor growth in 80% of tumors treated. The greatest antitumor effects were observed in tumors that possess a mutation in the PIK3CA gene. The underlying antitumor mechanisms of cabozantinib consisted of inhibition of angiogenesis and Akt activation and significantly decreased expression of genes involved in the PI3K pathway. These findings support further evaluation of cabozantinib in patients with CRC. PIK3CA mutation as a predictive biomarker of sensitivity is intriguing and warrants further elucidation. A clinical trial of cabozantinib in refractory metastatic CRC is being activated. CRC PDTX Model treated with cabozantinib

Project description:Interleukin-27 (IL-27) can partially reduce tumor growth in several animal models, including pros-tate cancer. We describe our findings on the effects of IL-27 gene delivery on prostate cancer cells and how sequential therapy with IL-18 enhances the efficacy of IL-27. We applied IL-27 and IL-18 deliv-ery with the goal of reducing prostate tumor growth, first in cell culture and then in an immunocom-petent mouse model. The combination of IL-27 followed by IL-18 (2718) successfully reduced can-cer cell viability, with significant effects found for a particular combination sequence. Interestingly, when we compared the 2718 combination with a single cytokine targeted to IL-6R via an oligo-peptide (27pepL) recently developed by our group, we observed similar efficacy. This efficacy was further enhanced when 27pepL was sequenced with IL-18 (27pepL18)

Project description:The pleiotropic cytokine IL-27 is essential for the clearance of the persistent LCMV strain Clone 13, however the cellular sources of IL-27 during viral infection are incompletely mapped and their relative importance unknown. Here we utilised single-cell RNA-sequencing of splenocytes from IL27-p28-GFP mice infected with Clone 13 to quantify the temporal patterns of IL-27 p28 production. IL-27-p28-GFP+ and IL-27-p28-GFP- splenocytes were sorted at 4 timepoints during Clone 13 infection and analysed by 3' single-cell transcriptome sequencing. Dendritic cells were major producers of early IL-27 with macrophages and monocytes being the predominant IL-27 producers during acute and persistent phases of infection. Interestingly, we also identified activated B cells and plasma cells as a prominent subset of IL-27-producing splenocytes and through B-cell-specific deletion of IL-27-p28 demonstrated that B-cell derived IL-27 is essential for sustained function of CD4 T cells and eventual clearance of Clone 13.

Project description:IL-27 is an immunoregulatory cytokine that suppresses inflammation through multiple mechanisms including induction of IL-10, but the transcriptional network mediating its diverse functions remains unclear. Combining temporal RNA profiling with computational algorithms, we predict 79 transcription factors induced by IL-27 in T cells. We validate 11 known and discover 5 positive (Cebpb, Fosl2, Tbx21, Hlx, Atf3) and 2 negative (Irf9, Irf8) Il10 regulators, generating an experimentally refined regulatory network for Il10. We report two central regulators Prdm1 and Maf that cooperatively drive the expression of signature genes induced by IL-27 in Type 1 regulatory T cells, mediate IL-10 expression in all T helper cells, and determine the regulatory phenotype of colonic Foxp3+regulatory T cells. Prdm1/Maf double-knockout mice develop spontaneous colitis, phenocopying the ll10 deficient mice. Our work provides insights for IL-27 driven transcriptional networks and identifies two shared Il10 regulators that orchestrate immunoregulatory programs across T helper cell subsets.

Project description:With the advent of potent second-line anti-androgen therapy, we and others have observed an increased incidence of androgen receptor (AR)-null small cell or neuroendocrine prostate cancer (SCNPC) in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Additionally, we have detected upregulated expression of MET and RET transcripts in SCNPC metastases relative to adenocarcinoma. Our study was designed to determine the effect of cabozantinib, a multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor that inhibits MET, RET and VEGFR2, on SCNPC patient-derived xenografts (PDX) in vivo. Surveillance of SU2C and University of Washington rapid autopsy mCRPC cohorts through RNA-Seq revealed that increased MET expression significantly correlated with loss of AR expression and activity. In vitro treatment of SCNPC PDX cells with AMG 337 had no impact on cell viability in LuCaP 93 (MET+/RET+) and LuCaP 173.1 (MET-/RET-), whereas cabozantinib decreased cell viability in LuCaP 93, but not in LuCaP 173.1. Notably, tumor volume was significantly decreased (p<0.001) with cabozantinib treatment in SCID mice bearing LuCaP 93 and LuCaP 173.1 tumors. Tissue analysis indicated that tumor cell proliferation was not inhibited by cabozantinib, but that cabozantinib decreased microvessel density (CD31) in LuCaP 93 (p<0.001) and LuCaP 173.1 (p<0.01) tumors. RNA-Seq and gene set enrichment analysis determined that hypoxia and glycolysis pathways were increased in cabozantinib treated tumors relative to control tumors. Thus, cabozantinib inhibited tumor growth in MET+/RET+ LuCaP 93 and MET-/RET- LuCaP 173.1 tumors in vivo and this activity was independent of MET or RET expression in LuCaP 173.1. Our data suggest that the most likely mechanism of tumor growth suppression is through disruption of the stromal architecture and cabozantinib may represent a potential therapy for patients with metastatic disease in tumor phenotypes that have a significant dependence on the tumor vasculature for survival and proliferation.

Project description:IL-27, a member of the IL-12- family of cytokines, has shown anti-tumor activity in several pre-clinical models due to anti-proliferative, anti-angiogenic and immune-enhancing effects. On the other hand, IL-27 demonstrated immune-regulatory activities and inhibition of auto-immunity in mouse models. Also, we reported that IL-27, similar to IFN-, induces the expression of IL-18BP, IDO and PD-L1 immune-regulatory molecules in human cancer cells. Here, a proteomic analysis reveals that IL-27 and IFN- display a broad overlap of functions on human ovarian cancer cells. Indeed, among 990 proteins modulated by either cytokine treatment in SKOV3 cells, 814 showed a concordant modulation by both cytokines, while a smaller number (176) were differentially modulated. The most up-regulated proteins were common to both IFN-γ and IL-27. In addition, functional analysis of IL-27- regulated protein networks highlighted pathways of interferon signaling and regulation, antigen presentation, protection from natural killer cell-mediated cytotoxicity, regulation of protein polyubiquitination and proteasome, aminoacid catabolism and regulation of viral protein levels.

Project description:Foxp3 expressing regulatory T cells (Tregs) are the central regulator of immune homeostasis and tolerance. As it is believed that proper Treg function is compromised under inflammatory conditions, exploring a pathway that enhances Treg function is of great importance. In this study, we report that IL-27, an IL-12 family cytokine known to play both pro- and anti-inflammatory role in T cells, plays a pivotal role in Treg function to control T cell-induced colitis. Unlike WT Tregs capable of inhibiting colitogenic T cell expansion and inflammatory cytokine expression, IL-27R-deficient Tregs were unable to downregulate inflammatory T cell responses. Tregs stimulated with IL-27 expressed substantially enhanced suppressive function both in vitro and in vivo. IL-27 stimulation of Tregs induced expression of LAG3, a surface molecule implicated in negatively regulating immune responses. LAG3 expression in IL-27-stimulated Tregs was critical to mediate suppressive Treg function. Finally, human Tregs also displayed enhanced suppressive function and LAG3 expression in response to IL-27 stimulation. Taken together, our results highlight a novel function of the IL-27/LAG3 axis in Treg regulation of inflammatory responses in the intestine. FACS purified Foxp3+ Tregs were stimulated in the presence of media or IL-27 to compare IL-27 induced gene profiles. Four samples (media stimulated or IL-27-stimulated) were collected from four independent experiments. Genes altered by IL-27 treatment were compared to those of media stimulated Tregs.
