The genomic landscape of intrinsic and acquired resistance to cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors in patients with hormone receptor positive metastatic breast cancer
biorxiv(2019)
摘要
Clinical resistance mechanisms to CDK4/6 inhibitors in HR+ breast cancer have not been clearly defined. Whole exome sequencing of 59 tumors with CDK4/6i exposure revealed multiple candidate resistance mechanisms including RB1 loss, activating alterations in AKT1 , RAS , AURKA , CCNE2, ERBB2, and FGFR2, and loss of ER expression. In vitro experiments confirmed that these alterations conferred CDK4/6i resistance. Cancer cells cultured to resistance with CDK4/6i also acquired RB1 , KRAS , AURKA , or CCNE2 alterations, which conferred sensitivity to AURKA, ERK, or CHEK1 inhibition. Besides inactivation of RB1, which accounts for ∼5% of resistance, seven of these mechanisms have not been previously identified as clinical mediators of resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors in patients. Three of these—RAS activation, AKT activation, and AURKA activation—have not to our knowledge been previously demonstrated preclinically. Together, these eight mechanisms were present in 80% of resistant tumors profiled and may define therapeutic opportunities in patients.
Significance We identified eight distinct mechanisms of resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors present in 80% of resistant tumors profiled. Most of these have a therapeutic strategy to overcome or prevent resistance in these tumors. Taken together, these findings have critical implications related to the potential utility of precision-based approaches to overcome resistance in many patients with HR+ MBC.
