Selective Vulnerability to Pyrimidine Starvation in Hematologic Malignancies Revealed by AG-636, a Novel Clinical-Stage Inhibitor of Dihydroorotate Dehydrogenase

Project description:Agents targeting metabolic pathways form the backbone of standard oncology treatments, though a better understanding of differential metabolic dependencies could instruct more rationale-based therapeutic approaches. We performed a chemical biology screen that revealed a strong enrichment in sensitivity to a novel dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) inhibitor, AG-636, in cancer cell lines of hematologic versus solid tumor origin. Differential AG-636 activity translated to the in vivo setting. Dissection of the relationship between uridine availability and response to AG-636 revealed a divergent ability of lymphoma and solid tumor cell lines to survive and grow in the setting of depleted extracellular uridine and DHODH inhibition. Metabolic characterization paired with unbiased functional genomic and proteomic screens pointed to adaptive mechanisms to cope with nucleotide stress as contributing to response to AG-636. These findings support targeting of DHODH in lymphoma and other hematologic malignancies and suggest combination strategies aimed at interfering with DNA damage response pathways.

Targeting of Hematologic Malignancies with PTC299, A Novel Potent Inhibitor of Dihydroorotate Dehydrogenase with Favorable Pharmaceutical Properties

Project description:PTC299 was identified as an inhibitor of VEGFA mRNA translation in a phenotypic screen and evaluated in the clinic for treatment of solid tumors. To guide precision cancer treatment, we performed extensive biological characterization of the activity of PTC299 and demonstrated that inhibition of VEGF production and cell proliferation by PTC299 is linked to a decrease in uridine nucleotides by targeting dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH), a rate limiting enzyme for de novo pyrimidine nucleotide synthesis. Unlike previously reported DHODH inhibitors that were identified using in vitro enzyme assays, PTC299 is a more potent inhibitor of DHODH in isolated mitochondria suggesting that mitochondrial membrane lipid engagement in the DHODH conformation in situ is required for its optimal activity. PTC299 has broad and potent activity against hematological cancer cells in preclinical models, reflecting a reduced pyrimidine nucleotide salvage pathway in leukemia cells. Archived serum samples from patients treated with PTC299 demonstrated increased levels of dihydroorotate, the substrate of DHODH, indicating target engagement in patients. PTC299 has advantages over previously reported DHODH inhibitors, including greater potency, good oral bioavailability and lack of off-target kinase inhibition and myelosuppression, and thus may be useful for the targeted treatment of hematologic malignancies.

Targeting Pyrimidine Synthesis Accentuates Molecular Therapy Response in Glioblastoma Stem Cells

Project description:Glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) reprogram glucose metabolism by hijacking high-affinity glucose uptake to survive in a nutritionally dynamic microenvironment. Here, we trace metabolic aberrations in GSCs to link core genetic mutations in glioblastoma to dependency on de novo pyrimidine synthesis. Targeting the pyrimidine synthetic rate-limiting step enzyme CAD (carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase 2, aspartate transcarbamyolase, dihydroorotase) or the critical downstream enzyme, DHODH (dihydroorotate dehydrogenase) inhibited GSC survival, self-renewal, and in vivo tumor initiation through the depletion of the pyrimidine nucleotide supply. Mutations in EGFR or PTEN generated distinct CAD phosphorylation patterns to activate carbon influx through pyrimidine synthesis. Simultaneous abrogation of tumor-specific driver mutations and DHODH activity with clinically approved inhibitors demonstrated sustained inhibition of metabolic activity of pyrimidine synthesis and GSC tumorigenic capacity. Higher expression of pyrimidine synthesis genes portend poor prognosis of glioblastoma patients. Collectively, our results demonstrate a novel therapeutic approach of precision medicine through targeting the nexus between driver mutations and metabolic reprogramming in cancer stem cells.

Transcriptomic analysis by array of reactivation of dihydroorotate dehydrogenase by respiration restores tumor growth of mitochondrial DNA-depleted cancer cells.

Project description:Tumor cells without mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) reconstitute oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) by acquiring host mitochondria from stromal cells, but the reasons why functional respiration is crucial for tumorigenesis remain unclear. To address this issue, we used time-resolved analysis of the initial stages of tumor formation by cells devoid of mtDNA and genetic manipulations of components of OXPHOS. We show that pyrimidine biosynthesis, supported by respiration-linked dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH), is strictly required to overcome cell cycle arrest, while mitochondrial ATP generation is dispensable for tumorigenesis.

Pyrimidine de novo synthesis inhibition selectively blocks effector but not memory T-cell development [SCRB-seq]

Project description:Blocking pyrimidine de novo synthesis via inhibiting Dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) is clinically used to treat autoimmunity and to prevent the growth of rapidly dividing cells including activated T-cells. We identified a previously unrecognized resistance of precursors of memory T-cells to pyrimidine starvation. While the treatment effectively blocks effector T-cells, numbers, function and transcriptional profiles of memory T-cells and their precursors remain completely unaltered. We pinpoint this effect to a narrow time-window in the early T-cell expansion phase, when developing effector, but not memory T-cells are selectively vulnerable to pyrimidine starvation. This stems from a higher proliferative pace of early effector T-cells paired with lower pyrimidine synthesis capacity compared to memory precursors. This differential sensitivity constitutes a novel, drug-targetable checkpoint that efficiently diminishes effector T-cells without harming the memory compartment. We envision that knowledge of this pyrimidine synthesis-based cell fate-determining particularity opens up new means to safely manipulate effector T-cell responses.
