Project description:Kinase fusions are considered oncogenic drivers in numerous types of cancer. In lung adenocarcinoma 5-10% of patients harbor kinase fusions. The most frequently detected kinase fusion involves the Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) and Echinoderm Microtubule-associated protein-Like 4 (EML4). In addition, oncogenic kinase fusions involving the tyrosine kinases RET and ROS1 are found in smaller subsets of patients. In this study, we employed quantitative mass spectrometry-based phosphoproteomics to define the cellular tyrosine phosphorylation patterns induced by different oncogenic kinase fusions identified in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. We show that the cellular expression of the kinase fusions leads to widespread tyrosine phosphorylation. Direct comparison of different kinase fusions demonstrates that the kinase part and not the fusion partner primarily defines the phosphorylation pattern. The tyrosine phosphorylation patterns differed between ALK, ROS1 and RET fusions, suggesting that oncogenic signaling induced by these kinases involves the modulation of different cellular processes.

Project description:ALK and ROS1 fusions defines subsets of lung adenocarcinoma. Although ALK/ROS1 inhibitors improved therapeutic outcome of patients harboring those oncogenic fusions, complete responses were rare, and resistance eventually develops from the residual tumor. To under the mechanisms contributing to residual tumor formation, we performed phosphoproteomics to explore the signaling adaption shortly after ALK/ROS1 inhibition. We found the phosphorylation of Mig6, a potent inhibitor for EGFR, was decreased following ALK/ROS1 inhibition, impairing Mig6 binding and inhibition on EGFR. Furthermore, Mig6 mRNA and protein levels were decreased rapidly by ALK/ROS1 inhibitors, potentiating EGFR activity to support cell survival. We also uncovered a novel mechanism mediated by Mig6 to regulate EGFR activity without impacting EGFR phosphorylation, but rather altering signaling adaptor SHC1 binding to EGFR. Mig6 expression was also lost following long-term exposure to ALK/ROS1 inhibitors to support EGFR-mediated acquired resistance. Finally, a Mig6 EGFR-binding domain truncation mutation was identified in a patient-derived ROS1 cell line, rendering its resistance to ROS1 inhibitors but sensitivity to HER family inhibitors. Our work established a rationale to evaluate combinations of ALK/ROS1 and EGFR inhibitors to limit residual tumor formation, therefore preventing or delaying subsequent resistance emergence.

Project description:A prevalence study was conducted for MET amplification and overexpression in liquid biopsy samples from patients with NSCLC who relapsed on ALK, ROS1 or RET tyrosine kinase inhibitors. MET-mediated resistance was detected in 37.5% of tissue biopsies, which allow the detection of MET overexpression, compared to 7.4% of liquid biopsies. This study highlights the importance of considering MET overexpression as a resistance driver to fusion targeted therapies

Project description:Fusions involving tyrosine kinases are oncogenic drivers in lung cancer and other solid tumors but also mediate resistance to targeted therapy. Despite gene rearrangements involving tyrosine kinases tending to show recurrent patterns in solid tumors, little is known about their mechanisms of formation and their selection process. To elucidate these mechanisms, we developed a functional high-throughput, genome-wide translocation sequencing (F-HTGTS) approach. We applied F-HTGTS to lung cancer cells under the selective pressure of EGFR inhibition to map genome-wide translocations when a DNA double-strand break occurs in the ALK, RET, ROS1 or NTRK1 tyrosine kinase. We found that translocations form spontaneously with several partners in the genome, generate functional fusion proteins and induce resistance to EGFR inhibitors. Several of these proteins reproduce precisely the fusions found in NSCLC patients either as original driver events or secondary to development of resistance to targeted therapy. Therefore, F-HTGTS is an approach that allows rapid and comprehensive mapping of tyrosine kinase fusions in the genome from common oncogenic kinases and provide insights on their mechanisms of formation.

Project description:RET-aberrant cancer discovered as a relevant targetable oncogene in several types of tumors, whose inhibitors have marked efficacy. However, some of patients with RET-aberrant cancer are insensitive to RET- tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and are clinically non-responders. Recently, drug-tolerant mechanisms have been gaining attention as targets for initial therapies aimed at overcoming drug resistance. However, the underlying mechanisms of drug-tolerant cells emergence treated with RET-TKIs derived from RET-aberrant cancer cells remains unknown. In this study, HER3 signal activity through YAP1 was led to maintaining cell survival and inducing the emergence of cells tolerant to RET-TKIs selpercatinib and pralsetinib in high YAP1 expressed RET- rearranged cancer cells. These results suggested that YAP1-HER3 axis plays pivotal roles for cell survival under an exposure with RET-TKIs in the intrinsic resistance to RET-TKIs and the emergence of tolerant cells by RET-TKIs in YAP1 expressed RET-aberrant cancer, suggesting that YAP1/HER3 inhibition and RET-TKIs is a highly potent combination for initial treatment.

Project description:Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) fusion variants in non-small-cell-lung cancer (NSCLC) consist of numerous dimerising fusion partners, with the most common being EML4. Clinical data suggests that the degree of treatment benefit in response to ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) differs among the variant present in the patient tumor. Therefore, a better understanding the oncogenic signaling networks driven by different ALK-fusion variants is important. Here, we developed highly controlled doxycycline-inducible cell models bearing four different ALK fusion proteins, namely EML4-ALK-V1, EML4-ALK-V3, KIF5B-ALK, and TFG-ALK, in the context of non-tumorigenic NL20 human bronchial epithelial cells. These were complimented by patient-derived NSCLC cell lines harboring either EML4-ALK-V1 or EML4-ALK-V3 fusions. RNAseq and phosphoproteomics analysis were employed to identify dysregulated genes and hyper/hypo-phosphorylated proteins associated with ALK fusion expression. Among ALK fusion induced responses, we noted a robust inflammatory signature that included up-regulation of the Serpin B4 serine protease inhibitor in both NL20-inducible cell models and ALK-positive NSCLC patient-derived cell lines. We show that STAT3 is a major transcriptional regulator of SERPINB4 downstream of ALK fusions, along with NF-B and AP1. The upregulation of SERPINB4 promotes survival of ALK fusion expressing cells and inhibits natural killer (NK) cell-mediated cytotoxicity. In conclusion, our study reveals a novel ALK downstream survival axis that regulates Serpin B4 expression and identifies a molecular target that has potential for therapeutic impact targeting the immune response together with ALK TKIs in NSCLC.
