- Abstract
Cellular dedifferentiation is a key mechanism driving cancer progression. Acquisition of mesenchymal features has been associated with drug resistance, poor prognosis, and disease relapse in many tumor types. Therefore, successful targeting of tumors harboring these characteristics is a priority in oncology practice. The SWItch/Sucrose non-fermentable (SWI/SNF) chromatin remodeling complex has also emerged as a critical player in tumor progression, leading to the identification of several SWI/SNF complex genes as potential disease biomarkers and targets of anticancer therapies. AT-rich interaction domain-containing protein 1A (ARID1A) is a component of SWI/SNF, and mutations in ARID1A represent one of the most frequent molecular alterations in human cancers. ARID1A mutations occur in approximately 10% of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDAC), but whether these mutations confer a therapeutic opportunity remains unclear. Here, we demonstrate that loss of ARID1A promotes an epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) phenotype and sensitizes PDAC cells to a clinical inhibitor of HSP90, NVP-AUY922, both in vitro and in vivo. Although loss of ARID1A alone did not significantly affect proliferative potential or rate of apoptosis, ARID1A-deficient cells were sensitized to HSP90 inhibition, potentially by promoting the degradation of intermediate filaments driving EMT, resulting in cell death. Our results describe a mechanistic link between ARID1A defects and a quasi-mesenchymal phenotype, suggesting that deleterious mutations in ARID1A associated with protein loss exhibit potential as a biomarker for patients with PDAC who may benefit by HSP90-targeting drugs treatment.Significance:This study identifies ARID1A loss as a promising biomarker for the identification of PDAC tumors that are potentially responsive to treatment with proteotoxic agents.

While the majority of men with prostate cancer will experience modest morbidity, advanced castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) remains a devastating disease with significant mortality and limited treatment options. Recently approved anti-androgen therapies such as enzalutamide have shown promising clinical responses. Unfortunately, patients frequently develop resistance to these therapies. Signaling through the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) has emerged as a primary mechanism of resistance to enzalutamide in CRPC suggesting that GR is an attractive therapeutic target. However, existing small molecule antagonists of GR suffer from partial agonist activity leading to activation of a subset of GR target genes which limits their anti-tumor efficacy. To overcome this problem, we have developed bifunctional small molecules or proteolysis targeting chimeras (PROTACs) that induce potent and specific degradation of GR. Using iterative structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies, we have developed a novel chemical linker that imparted superior properties to PROTACs. These novel GR PROTACs induce profound degradation of GR. Using proteomic analysis and quantification of more than 8000 proteins, we show that our GR PROTAC is highly selective for GR. GR PROTACs inhibited proliferation of enzalutamide-resistant prostate cancer cells, have favorable pharmacokinetic properties and are active in vivo. Importantly, GR PROTACs work synergistically with enzalutamide to inhibit growth of prostate cancer xenografts in a castration-resistant mouse model of prostate cancer. Mechanistically, we identified improved suppression of AR and GR target genes in the combination of GR PROTAC and enzalutamide. More importantly, the combination was able to suppress crucial developmental pathways implicated in prostate cancer resistance to therapy and tumor dormancy. Our novel GR PROTACs highlight the power of targeted protein degradation to deliver excellent chemical probes and potentially impactful cancer therapeutics. Citation Format: James T.

Recent large-scale cancer genomic studies have established a framework in which biological functions and genetic interactions of established and novel cancer genes can be explored. One of the major findings of these studies has been the discovery of frequent genetic alterations in chromatin and epigenetic regulators including inactivating mutations in components of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex. In lung adenocarcinoma in particular, a quarter of tumors have inactivating mutations in the SWI/SNF components Smarca4, ARID1A or the histone modifier SETD2. With the aim of understanding the mechanism of tumor development and identifying potential vulnerabilities of SWI/SNF mutant tumor, we developed a genetically engineered mouse model (GEMM) of lung adenocarcinoma by selectively ablating Smarca4 in the respiratory epithelium. We demonstrate that Smarca4 acts as a bona fide tumor suppressor and cooperates with p53 loss. Cross species integrative gene expression analyses revealed signatures of enhanced oxidative phosphorylation and reactive oxygen species (ROS) response in Smarca4 mutant murine and human lung tumors. We further show that Smarca4 mutant cells have increased oxygen consumption, enhanced basal and maximal respiratory capacity and production of ROS. This is primarily driven by activation of the mitochondrial master regulator, PGC1alpha. Finally, we show that Smarca4 and other SWI/SNF mutant lung cancer cell lines have exquisite sensitivity to inhibition of oxidative phosphorylation using a novel small molecule that is under development. These findings provide a mechanistic basis for further development of OXPHOS inhibitors as therapies in SWI/SNF mutant tumors. Citation Format: Yonathan Lissanu Deribe.
