  • The TP53 Apoptotic Network Is a Primary Mediator of Resistance to BCL2 Inhibition in AML Cells
    Published OnlineFirst May 2, 2019; DOI: 10.1158/2159-8290.CD-19-0125 RESEARCH ARTICLE The TP53 Apoptotic Network Is a Primary Mediator of Resistance to BCL2 Inhibition in AML Cells Tamilla Nechiporuk1,2, Stephen E. Kurtz1,2, Olga Nikolova2,3, Tingting Liu1,2, Courtney L. Jones4, Angelo D’Alessandro5, Rachel Culp-Hill5, Amanda d’Almeida1,2, Sunil K. Joshi1,2, Mara Rosenberg1,2, Cristina E. Tognon1,2,6, Alexey V. Danilov1,2, Brian J. Druker1,2,6, Bill H. Chang2,7, Shannon K. McWeeney2,8, and Jeffrey W. Tyner1,2,9 ABSTRACT To study mechanisms underlying resistance to the BCL2 inhibitor venetoclax in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), we used a genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screen to identify gene knockouts resulting in drug resistance. We validated TP53, BAX, and PMAIP1 as genes whose inactivation results in venetoclax resistance in AML cell lines. Resistance to venetoclax resulted from an inability to execute apoptosis driven by BAX loss, decreased expression of BCL2, and/or reliance on alternative BCL2 family members such as BCL2L1. The resistance was accompanied by changes in mitochondrial homeostasis and cellular metabolism. Evaluation of TP53 knockout cells for sensitivities to a panel of small-molecule inhibitors revealed a gain of sensitivity to TRK inhibitors. We relate these observations to patient drug responses and gene expression in the Beat AML dataset. Our results implicate TP53, the apoptotic network, and mitochondrial functionality as drivers of venetoclax response in AML and suggest strategies to overcome resistance. SIGNIFICANCE: AML is challenging to treat due to its heterogeneity, and single-agent therapies have universally failed, prompting a need for innovative drug combinations.

Koshkina, Peter O’Donnellb,EvanY.Yuc and Petros Grivasd,∗ aDepartment of Medicine, Division of Hematology and Oncology, University of California San Francisco, CA, USA bDepartment of Medicine, Section of Hematology/Oncology, University of Chicago, Chicago, IL, USA cDepartment of Medicine, Division of Oncology, Clinical Research Director, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, University of Washington, Seattle Cancer Care Alliance, Seattle, WA, USA dDepartment of Medicine, Division of Oncology, University of Washington, Seattle Cancer Care Alliance, Seattle, WA, USA Received 23 August 2018 Accepted 22 November 2018 Abstract. Background: HER2 (ErbB2) is a receptor of the Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (HER) family whose role in oncogenesis of numerous malignancies is well described. Drugs targeting HER2 are currently approved in breast and gastroesophageal cancers while pan-HER targeting agents are being evaluated in multiple malignancies. HER2 genomic alterations are commonly described in urothelial cancer and multiple trials have assessed the efficacy of anti-HER2 agents in both muscle-invasive and metastatic urothelial carcinoma. Objective: To review prospective clinical trials of therapeutic agents with HER2–targeting activity in patients with bladder cancer. Methods: A systematic search of PubMed, ASCO abstracts and Clinicaltrials.gov was performed to identify studies of HER2–targeting agents in bladder cancer. Reported results from prospective trials were reviewed and summarized. Results: Eleven prospective clinical trials with reported results were identified that investigated activity of trastuzumab, lapatinib, neratinib, afatinib, or autologous cellular immunotherapy, (DN24–02), in various bladder cancer treatment settings.

The fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) plays critical roles in driving oncogenesis of a subset of patients with urothelial carcinomas (UC). Growing evidence from preclinical studies suggests that FGFR3 inhibition can reduce proliferation and survival in vitro and in vivo models of FGFR3-altered UC. Early clinical trials investigating selective FGFR3 inhibitor have reported preliminary signs of antitumor activity in advanced UC patients with selected FGFR3 mutations or fusions. Currently, phase 3 trials with erdafitinib and rogaratinib are enrolling patients with known FGFR3 alterations. Future combinations with targeted therapies or immune checkpoint inhibitors may increase the efficacy of selective FGFR3 inhibitors. Herein, we discuss current clinical development of FGFR3 inhibitors as well as unsolved questions with regards to patient selection, management of toxicities and mechanisms of resistance to selective FGFR3 inhibitors. Keywords: Urothelial cancer, bladder cancer, fibroblast growth factor 3, tyrosine kinase INTRODUCTION the treated patients [1–11]. Innovative strategies aim- ing to improve metastatic UC treatment efficacy have Metastatic urothelial carcinoma (UC) is frequent learned from targeted therapies in solid tumors such and has a poor prognosis.

  • Role of Tafazzin in Hematopoiesis and Leukemogenesis
    Role of Tafazzin in Hematopoiesis and Leukemogenesis by Ayesh Seneviratne A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Institute of Medical Science University of Toronto © Copyright by Ayesh Seneviratne 2020 Role of Tafazzin in Hematopoiesis and Leukemogenesis Ayesh Seneviratne Doctor of Philosophy Institute of Medical Science University of Toronto 2020 Abstract Tafazzin (TAZ) is a mitochondrial transacylase that remodels the mitochondrial cardiolipin into its mature form. Through a CRISPR screen, we identified TAZ as necessary for the growth and viability of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells. Genetic inhibition of TAZ reduced stemness and increased differentiation of AML cells both in vitro and in vivo. In contrast, knockdown of TAZ did not impair normal hematopoiesis under basal conditions. Mechanistically, inhibition of TAZ decreased levels of cardiolipin but also altered global levels of intracellular phospholipids, including phosphatidylserine, which controlled AML stemness and differentiation by modulating toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling (Seneviratne et al., 2019). ii Acknowledgments Firstly, I would like to thank Dr. Aaron Schimmer for his guidance and support during my PhD studies. I really enjoyed our early morning meetings where he provided much needed perspective to navigate the road blocks of my project, whilst continuing to push me. It was a privilege to be mentored by such an excellent clinician scientist. I hope to continue to build on the skills I learned in Dr. Schimmer’s lab as I progress on my path to become a clinician scientist. Working in the Schimmer lab was a wonderful learning environment. I would like to especially thank Dr.

  • Venetoclax in Combination with Gilteritinib in Patients with Relapsed/Refractory AML
    ______________________________________________________________________________ Venetoclax in Combination with Gilteritinib in Patients with Relapsed/Refractory AML Naval Daver, MD Associate Professor Department of Leukemia The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center Houston, Texas This is a study that we designed with the AbbVie and Astellas teams as well as lead investigators at other sites in the United States. The study combines two very active drugs in AML, one being a BCL- 2 inhibitor, venetoclax, that is approved in the frontline setting as a combination of azacitidine or low-dose cytarabine with venetoclax for older AML, not suitable for induction; the other is a highly potent selective FLT3 inhibitor that targets both FLT3 ITD and TKD as well as dual mutation and has been approved in the relapsed/refractory setting as a single agent, the drug is called gilteritinib. The approval of gilteritinib was based on a randomized phase 3 study that showed that single-agent gilteritinib was able to produce higher response rates, bone marrow responses, CR/CRh, as well as significantly improved overall survival as compared to standard-of-care high-dose chemotherapy or epigenetic therapy. One of the big questions is, why did we do this combination? Well, one reason is that there is actually very potent preclinical synergy for the FLT3 inhibitors, gilteritinib, but also for quizartinib with venetoclax, and our group has done studies in the lab, as have AbbVie, Astellas, and Genentech teams that support a very high degree of synthetic lethality when you combine next-generation FLT3 inhibitors with the BCL-2 inhibitors such as venetoclax. Also, important to note that one of the major mechanisms of resistance or relapse post-venetoclax is MCL1 upregulation, and the FLT3 inhibitors block MCL1, thereby blocking the escape or relapsed potential by using single-agent venetoclax.

  • Combination Therapies Involving Gilteritinib and Venetoclax
    Combination Therapies Involving Gilteritinib and Venetoclax Keith W. Pratz, MD Assistant Professor of Oncology Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center Johns Hopkins University Baltimore, Maryland Welcome to Managing AML. I am Dr. Keith Pratz, and I am live at the ASH Annual Meeting in Atlanta, Georgia. Today I will be reviewing two clinical trial presentations: the first is the preliminary results of the phase 1 study of gilteritinib in patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia, the second being an updated presentation on the safety and efficacy of venetoclax with decitabine or azacitidine in newly diagnosed, unfit AML patients. Let us begin with the preliminary results of the phase 1 study of gilteritinib in combination with induction and consolidation chemotherapy in subjects with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia. This study involves the incorporation of a tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting FLT3, which is one of the more common mutations in acute myeloid leukemia conferring poor overall outcomes, with standard induction chemotherapy of cytarabine and idarubicin. The study so far has accrued 50 patients since December of 2015. The background is that we are hopeful that the addition of a tyrosine kinase inhibitor to chemotherapy will improve the quality of remissions and overall survival in patients with this difficult-to-treat disease. The results that we will present show that patients achieved remission at a rate of 100% in patients with FLT3 leukemia in this small subset of patients. We had 21 patients with FLT3 mutations, most of which were ITD mutations; and 19 out of the 21 patients achieved a complete remission with full count recovery, and two other patients achieved complete remission with incomplete count recovery.
