Project description:Current intensive chemotherapy regimens have improved overall survival in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia but fail to cure some high-risk patient subgroups. While exploring amino acid depletion strategies, we observed that KMT2A-rearranged (KMT2A-r) leukemia, an aggressive subset with a dismal prognosis, is particularly vulnerable to perturbations of the methionine cycle. We demonstrated that this methionine dependency is primarily driven by an increased need for S-adenosylmethionine to maintain the hypermethylated state of KMT2A-r leukemias. Important pro-survival KMT2A-r target genes are repressed under methionine restriction, which, combined with other downstream metabolic changes, results in rapid cell death. FIDAS-5, an orally active methionine adenosyltransferase 2A (MAT2A) inhibitor, successfully impaired leukemia progression in patient-derived xenograft models, and a high-throughput drug screen revealed a strong synergy between MAT2A inhibition and histone deacetylase inhibitors. Our results identified the methionine cycle as a targetable vulnerability in KMT2A-r leukemia, which may increase the efficacy of epigenetic targeting agents.

Project description:The KMT2A rearranged B lineage infant ALL cell line SEM was treated with the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib followed by a multiplexed mass spectrometry-based proteomic analysis at multiple time points (0, 6, 12, 16, and 20 hours) over 20 hours to further understand the cellular response of these cells to proteasome inhibition.

Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a disease with poor outcome but patients harbouring certain chromosomal rearrangements or complex karyotypes have particularly adverse prognosis. For these patients, targeted therapies have not yet made a significant clinical impact. To understand the molecular landscape of poor risk AML we profiled 55 poor risk AML patients using a multiomics approach that included transcriptomics (n=39), proteomics (n=55), phosphoproteomics (n=55) and an ex vivo drug sensitivity screening (482 compounds tested in at least 30 patients). We identified a phosphoproteomics signature that define two biologically distinct groups of KMT2A rearranged leukaemia, which we term MLLGA and MLLGB. MLLGA presented increased DOT1L phosphorylation, HOXA gene expression, CDK1 activity and phosphorylation of proteins involved in RNA metabolism, replication and DNA damage when compared to MLLGB and no KMT2A rearranged samples. MLLGA was particularly sensitive to 15 compounds including genotoxic drugs and inhibitors of mitotic kinases and IMPDH relative to other cases. The expression of IMPDH2 and multiple nucleolar proteins was higher in MLLGA and correlated with the response to IMPDH inhibition in KMT2A rearranged leukaemia, suggesting a role of the nucleolar activity in sensitivity to IMPDH inhibition. In summary, our multilayer molecular profiling of poor risk AML matched to the response to hundreds of compounds identified a phosphoproteomics signature that define two biologically and phenotypically distinct groups of KMT2A rearranged leukaemia. These data provide a rationale for the development of specific therapies for KMT2A subgroups characterised by the MLLGA phosphoproteomics signature identified in this study.

Project description:We studied the in vitro and in vivo efficacy of the HDAC inhibitor Givinostat/ITF2357 in BCP-ALL with CRLF2 rearrangements. We used BCP-ALL CRLF2- rearranged MHH-CALL4 and MUTZ5 cell lines as well as blasts from CRLF2 rearranged BCP-ALL patients and patients’ derived xenograft samples. We conclude that Givinostat may represent a novel and effective tool, in combination with current chemotherapy, to treat this subsets of ALL with poor prognosis and chemotherapy-related toxicity.

Project description:The histone methyltransferases DOT1L (H3K79me1,2,3 KMT, "activating" chromatin mark) and EZH2 (H3K27me1,2,3 KMT, "silencing" mark) have both been shown to be required for growth and survival of KMT2A rearranged AML cells. Both KMTs have been shown to modulate expression of HOXA cluster genes, albeit for EZH2 this has not been shown in the context of KMT2A rearranged AML, but in other subtypes of AML. We asked what transcriptional effects dual inhibition of DOT1L and EZH2 has in KMT2A rearranged AML.

Project description:Activating mutations in kinase/PI3K/RAS signaling pathways are common in acute leukemia with KMT2A rearrangements (KMT2A-R). These mutations are often subclonal and their biological impact remain unclear. Using a retroviral acute myeloid leukemia model, we demonstrate that NRASG12D, FLT3ITD, and FLT3N676K accelerates KMT2A-MLLT3 leukemia onset. Importantly, also the presence of subclonal FLT3N676K in KMT2A-R leukemic cells shorten disease latency, possibly by providing stimulatory factors such as Mif. Acquired de novo mutations in Braf, Cbl, Kras, and Ptpn11 were identified in KMT2A-MLLT3 driven leukemia and favored clonal expansion. KMT2A-MLLT3 leukemia with an activating mutation enforce Myc- and Myb transcriptional modules, whereas KMT2A-MLLT3 leukemias lacking activating mutations displayed upregulation of signal transduction pathways. Our results provide new insight into the biology of KMT2A-R leukemia and highlights the importance of activated signaling as a contributing driver in this disease.

Project description:KMT2A-MLLT3, a fusion protein formed by the t(9;11) translocation in acute myeloid leukemia, is an epigenetic transcription factor that is known to regulate a unique leukemic gene expression profile. We show that rearranged during transfection (RET) proto-oncogene is highly overexpressed in the KMT2A-MLLT3 subgroup. In addition to biochemical studies, the RNA-seq and ATAC seq analyses have been performed in KMT2A-MLLT3 positive MOLM-13 AML cell line, compared to the umbilical cord blood-driven CD34+ hematopoietic stem progenitor cells.

Project description:Bromo- and extra-terminal domain inhibitors (BETi) have exhibited therapeutic activities in many cancers, including KMT2A-rearranged (KMT2A-r) leukemia, in preclinical studies. However, the mechanisms controlling BETi response and resistance are poorly understood. We conducted genome-wide loss-of-function CRISPR screens using BETi-treated KMT2A-r cell lines. SPOP gene deficiency caused significant BETi resistance, which was further validated in cell line and xenograft models. In SPOP-knockout KMT2A-r leukemia cells, TRIM24 was identified as a SPOP substrate that mediates resistance to BETi. Additionally, proteomics analysis and a kinase-vulnerability CRISPR screen indicated that resistant cells are sensitive to GSK3 inhibition. Genetically perturbating TRIM24 or pharmaceutical inhibition of its downstream target GSK3 in SPOP-knockout cells reversed the BETi-resistance phenotype. A combination therapy regimen inhibiting both BET and GSK3 impeded leukemia progression in patient-derived xenografts in vivo. Our results revealed not only novel molecular mechanisms underlying BETi resistance but also a promising strategy for treating KMT2A-r leukemia.
