Project description:PURPOSE: We investigated whether tumor tissue obtained at diagnosis expresses a specific gene profile that is predictive of findings at second-look surgery in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Tumor tissue obtained at the time of diagnosis was profiled with oligonucleotide microarrays. Class prediction analysis was performed in a training set of 24 patients who had undergone a second-look procedure. The resultant predictive signature was then tested on an independent validation set comprised of 36 patients. RESULTS: A 93-gene signature referred to as the Chemotherapy Response Profile (CRP) was identified through its association with pathologic complete response. When applied to a separate validation set, the CRP distinguished between patients with unfavorable versus favorable overall survival (median 41 months v not yet reached, respectively, log-rank P = .007), with a median follow-up of 52 months. The signature maintained independent prognostic value in multivariate analysis, controlling for other known prognostic factors such as age, stage, grade, and debulking status. There was no genetic overlap between the CRP and our previously described Ovarian Cancer Prognostic Profile (OCPP), which demonstrated similar prognostic value. The combination of the CRP and OCPP yielded better prognostic discrimination then either profile alone. Genes present in the CRP include BAX, a proapoptotic protein previously associated with chemotherapy response in ovarian cancer. CONCLUSION: Identification of a gene expression profile based on pathologic response in EOC provides independent prognostic information and offers potential insights into the mechanism of drug resistance. Efforts to identify a more tailored profile using selected genes from both the CRP and OCPP are underway. keyword(s): Correlation with outcome All microarray experiments were performed at the BIDMC Genomics Center. Ovarian cancer samples were collected at the time of primary debulking surgery and frozen at 80°C. Tumor samples were pulverized in liquid nitrogen and homogenized in Trizol solution, followed by RNA isolation, probe labeling, and Affymetrix GeneChip hybridization using standard manufacturer protocols. The dChip algorithm was used for data normalization and for generating gene expression signal values. Two outlier arrays as identified by the dChip software were excluded from further analysis.

Project description:We reveal three-dimensional patterns of tumour growth by exploiting the unique metastasizing patterns of treatment naïve stage IIIC/IV epithelial ovarian cancer. We performed topographic mapping of structural genomic rearrangements, coding mutations, copy number changes and RNA expression in biopsies derived from 27 primary and metastatic sites across three patients. Based on somatic genomic changes, we performed sample clustering and obtained unique insight in natural tumour growth and spread. Based on extensive multi-level profiling, our data highlight the diverse modes of epithelial ovarian cancer development before applying selective pressure from therapy. We performed SNP array analysis on tumor biopsies from 3 patients (P1, P2, P3) with advanced stage ovarian cancer. This submission includes SNP data for 26 tumor biopsies and 5 normal tissue samples.

Project description:The role of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is still controversial partly because of the poorly understood mechanism of action. Further an understanding of the underlying mechanisms could identify potential combination therapies. Here, we conduct a comprehensive multi-omics study (transcriptiome, proteome, and phosphoproteome) upon hyperthermia (HT) in ovarian cancer cells. Unbiased trans-omics approach deciphered a unique hyperthermia- induced molecular panorama and demonstrated rapid alterations in protein phosphorylation as the primary cell response upon HT. Based on the phospho-signature, we identified CDK kinases to be hyperactivated and responsible for the global signaling landscape upon HT. Molecular and functional experiments demonstrated the dynamic and reversible CDK activity, subsequent replication arrest, and early mitotic entry after HT. A follow-up drug screen identified WEE1 inhibition to synergistically kills cancer cells with HT. An in-house developed miniaturized devise delivered proof-of-concept that the combination of hyperthermia with WEE1i leads to dramatic anti-tumor responses in vivo. These findings provide new insights into how to improve the effectiveness of HIPEC in EOC.

Project description:Background: Resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy remains a major impediment in the treatment of serous epithelial ovarian cancer. The objective of this study was to use gene expression profiling to delineate major deregulated pathways and biomarkers associated with the development of intrinsic chemotherapy resistance upon exposure to standard first-line therapy for ovarian cancer. Methods: The study cohort comprised 28 patients divided into two groups based on their varying sensitivity to first-line chemotherapy using progression free survival (PFS) as a surrogate of response. All 28 patients had advanced stage, high-grade serous ovarian cancer, and were treated with the same standard platinum-based chemotherapy. Twelve patient tumors demonstrating relative resistance to platinum chemotherapy corresponding to shorter PFS (< eight months) were compared to sixteen tumors from platinum-sensitive patients (PFS > eighteen months). Whole transcriptome profiling was performed using a Affymetrix high-resolution microarray platform to permit global comparisons of gene expression profiles between tumors from the resistant group and the sensitive group. Results: Microarray data analysis revealed a set of 204 discriminating genes possessing expression levels, which could influence differential chemotherapy response between the two groups. Robust statistical testing was then performed which eliminated a dependence on the normalization algorithm employed, producing a restricted list of differentially regulated genes, and which found IGF1 to be the most strongly differentially expressed gene. Pathway analysis, based on the list of 204 genes, revealed enrichment in genes primarily involved in the IGF1/PI3K/NFκB/ERK gene signalling networks. Conclusions: This study has identified pathway specific prognostic biomarkers possibly underlying a differential chemotherapy response in patients undergoing standard platinum-based treatment of serous epithelial ovarian cancer. Future studies to validate these markers are necessary to apply this knowledge to biomarker-based clinical trials. Total RNA from 12 chemotherapy resistant and 16 sensitive chemotherapy sensitive high-grade serous epithelial ovarian cancer samples was subjected to whole transcriptome profiling using Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 arrays

Project description:Epithelial ovarian cancer is the leading cause of death from gynecological malignancies. Currently platinum-based chemotherapy, coupled with a taxane based drug is the primary treatment for ovarian cancer. Approximately 25% of patients either present with or rapidly develop resistance to platinum based chemotherapy and all recurrent tumors ultimately become resistant. Epigenetic modifications have been associated with tumor formation and progression and may contribute to therapy response. We performed a methylation screen on a set of tumors and have found a number of genes and family members differentially methylated between resistant patients and sensitive patients. Here we show that loss of expression of CHD3, a member of the Mi-2/NuRD complex, causes increased resistance to platinum chemotherapy drugs. Additionally, ovarian cell lines transcriptionally silenced for CHD3 are more invasive, have migratory ability, and display a transformed epithelial to mesenchymal (EMT) phenotype. Taken together, we provide the first evidence of a role for CHD3 as an important epigenetic regulator of chemoresistance in ovarian cancer and hypothesize EMT as one of the underlying mechanisms. Furthermore, CHD3 expression might represent a therapy response predictor and could be a future therapeutic target for ovarian cancer. We have developed a method to profile genome wide methylation. 71 ovarian tumor samples and 9 normal tissue samples from individuals were analyzed for CpG methylation. Some of these regions were validated for their methylation as a proof of principle for the method. Kamalakaran S., et. al. Mol Oncol. 2011;5:77-92 (PMID: 21169070).

Project description:Omentum conditioned medium (OCM) is known to enhance ovarian cancer oncogenesis. In this study, miR-33b exerts tumor suppressive effects on ovarian cancer cells in response to omentum conditioned medium (OCM) treatment. To identify the molecular mechanism and main biological pathways involved in the tumor inhibiting activity by miR-33b in the ovarian cancer metastasis. To achieve this, miR-33b was stably overexpressed in ovarian cancer cell line ES-2, and the protein expression profile of miR-33b overexpressing ES-2 cells upon OCM treatment was determined.

Project description:Granulosa cell tumours (GCTs) of the ovary are a unique subset of ovarian stromal tumours accounting for approximately five percent of all ovarian malignancies. Based on their pathologic characteristics and clinical features, GCTs can be further divided into two distinct subtypes: adult-GCTs and juvenile-GCTs. In this study, we investigate the use of microRNAs (miRNAs) as potential biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognostication of GCTs.
