    Abstract: 5509 Background: Sex hormone and insulin/insulin-like growth factor (IGF) axis signaling pathways play an important role in endometrial cancer development but their role in endometrial cancer recurrence is unknown. In this study GOG-8015 we evaluated these pathways in a prospective cohort of patients diagnosed with the most common type of endometrial cancer, endometrioid adenocarcinoma. Methods: Stage II-IV endometrioid endometrial adenocarcinoma patients (N = 816) enrolled in the GOG-210 study with pre-treatment specimens were tested for tumor mRNA and protein expression levels of IGF1, IGF2, IGF binding proteins ( IGFBP) -1and -3, the insulin (IR) and IGF-I receptors (IGF1R), and phosphorylated (activated) IR/IGF1R as well as estrogen (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) using quantitative PCR and immunohistochemistry (IHC). Serum concentrations of insulin, IGF-I, IGFBP-3, estradiol, estrone and sex hormone binding globulin were measured using ELISAs. Hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for risk of recurrence were obtained from multivariable Cox proportional hazard’s models with adjustment for age, stage and grade. Results: Recurrence occurred in 280 (34%) cases during a mean of 5.4 years of follow-up. ER-positivity (HR 0.67, 95% CI 0.47-0.95), IR-positivity (HR 0.53, 95% CI 0.29-0.98) and serum IGF-I levels (highest versus lowest quartile, HR 0.66, 95% CI 0.47-0.92) were inversely associated with recurrence risk. Conversely, circulating estradiol (highest versus lowest tertile, HR 1.55, 95% CI 1.02-2.36) and insulin (per 10 uU/ml, HR 1.52, 95% CI 1.12-2.06) and phosphorylated IGF1R/pIR expression (HR 1.40, 95% CI 1.02-1.92) were associated with increased risk of recurrence. Conclusions: We identified novel sex hormone and insulin/IGF axis tissue and circulating biomarkers of recurrence in a prospective study of high stage endometrioid endometrial cancer. Circulating insulin and estradiol, and tissue phosphorylated (activated) IGR1R/IR were independently associated with recurrence. These findings support prioritizing studies to establish their clinical utility as prognostic biomarkers and to investigate new strategies that target these pathways for prevention and treatment of endometrial cancer recurrence.

    Abstract: Outcomes remain poor for patients with relapsed/refractory B‐cell non‐Hodgkin lymphoma (R/R B‐NHL). While chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T‐cell therapy has revolutionised treatment, a significant proportion of patients relapse or fail to respond. Odronextamab is a CD20 × CD3 bispecific antibody that has demonstrated durable responses and a manageable safety profile in patients with R/R B‐NHL in a first‐in‐human trial (NCT02290951). Here, we document two patients with diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma refractory to CART‐cell therapy. Both achieved complete responses that remain ongoing for ≥2 years following odronextamab. Neither patient experienced Grade ≥3 cytokine release syndrome or Grade ≥3 neurological adverse events during treatment.

    Abstract: Background: Many patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL) are unable to tolerate, access, or benefit from intensive chemo-therapeutic approaches or cellular therapies and will invariably relapse; therefore, novel approaches are urgently required. Odronextamab (REGN1979) is a hinge-stabilized, human CD20 × CD3 IgG4-based bispecific antibody that elicits T-cell-mediated cytotoxicity of malignant B cells. In a Phase 1 study, odronextamab monotherapy showed a manageable safety profile with encouraging preliminary activity in heavily pre-treated patients with R/R B-NHL (Bannerji R, et al. Lancet Haematol. 2022;9(5):e327-39). REGN5837 is a hinge-stabilized, human CD28 × CD22 IgG4-based bispecific antibody that provides a co-stimulatory signal (signal 2). When combined with odronextamab (signal 1), REGN5837 improved anti-tumor efficacy and survival in in vivo diffuse large B-cell lymphoma tumor models via enhanced T-cell expansion. We hypothesize that combining REGN5837 with odronextamab may deepen and extend anti-tumor activity in patients with aggressive lymphoma. Methods: ATHENA-1 (NCT05685173) is a Phase 1, open-label, first-in-human study of REGN5837 in combination with odronextamab in patients with R/R aggressive B-NHL. During induction, odronextamab and REGN5837 will be administered weekly over 21-day cycles. To mitigate potential CRS events, odronextamab will be introduced with step-up dosing as a monotherapy, followed by introduction of REGN5837 on C2 D15 with step-up dosing. Maintenance will consist of 28-day cycles (odronextamab and REGN5837 administration on D1, 15). Patients who achieve a sustained complete response (≥9 months) will have study drug(s) administration changed to once every 4 weeks. Patients must be aged ≥18 years, have Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status ≤1, with adequate organ function, and have CD20+ aggressive B-NHL that progressed after ≥2 lines of systemic therapy containing at least an anti-CD20 antibody and an alkylating agent, with or without prior chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy. Exclusion criteria include prior allogeneic stem cell transplant, organ transplant, or CD20xCD3 bispecific antibodies, or mantle cell lymphoma or central nervous system lymphoma. Primary endpoints are incidence of dose-limiting toxicities and the incidence and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events. Secondary endpoints include pharmacokinetics of odronextamab and REGN5837, anti-drug antibody incidence, objective response rate, complete response rate, duration of response, progression-free survival, and overall survival. Enrolment is planned to open in early 2023. Citation Format: John Baird, Pim G. Mutsaers, Jeremy S. Abramson, Manjusha Namuduri, Jingjin Li, Nickolas A.

    Abstract: Introduction: We previously described the association of high tumoral IGF2 expression with reduced disease-free survival in epithelial ovarian tumors. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of IGF2 overexpression on the tumorigenicity of human ovarian cancer cells. Methods: Expression constructs containing the full-length coding sequence of IGF2 or no insert (empty vector; EV) were made. HEY cells were stably transfected. Quantitative real-time PCR (of CDNA made from cell and xenograft RNA) and ELISA (of conditioned media) were performed to measure the IGF2 mRNA and protein expression levels, respectively. The relative IGF2 mRNA expression level was calculated by the 2−δδCt method with internal normalization to the cyclophilin B mRNA level. Tumorigenicity was evaluated in athymic nude mice by subcutaneous injection of 1×106 cells, with or without matrigel, followed by serial monitoring of in vivo tumor growth by digital caliper measurements. The two-tailed t-test was used to evaluate the significance of comparisons. Results: The IGF2 mRNA level was 5604 ±617 fold-change higher in HEY-IGF2 cells relative to HEY-EV cells (P & lt;0.05). The IGF2 secreted protein level was 1852 ng/ml per 100,000 HEY-IGF2 cells, and was not detectable in the conditioned media of HEY-EV cells. After 4 weeks, the mean tumor volume of subcutaneous xenografts following cell injection without matrigel was 181 ±53 mm3 versus 52 ±15 mm3 for HEY-IGF2 and HEY-EV, respectively (P & lt;0.05, N=10 per group); and for cells injected with matrigel, the mean tumor volume was 1608 ±330 mm3 versus 705 ±95 mm3 for HEY-IGF2 and HEY-EV xenografts, respectively (P & lt;0.05, N=6 per group). The tumor growth rate differed significantly between the HEY-IGF2 and HEY-EV xenografts (P & lt;0.01). In the HEY-IGF2 xenografts, overexpression of IGF2 relative to HEY-EV xenografts was maintained. Conclusions: Stable overexpression of IGF2 in HEY ovarian cancer cells and xenografts was achieved, and resulted in an increase in IGF2 protein secretion. IGF2 overexpression enhanced in vivo tumorigenicity of HEY ovarian cells, accompanied by an increased xenograft growth rate. Further evaluation is underway to fully characterize the mechanisms by which IGF2 overexpression promotes tumor growth. Citation Format: {Authors}. {Abstract title} [abstract].

    Abstract: To establish primary cell lines from uterine carcinosarcoma (CS) patient samples and to evaluate combination treatment with standard chemotherapy with or without the addition of an anti-IGF1R antibody. CS tumor tissue was obtained under IRB approval at the time of primary surgery. We reported the establishment of patient-derived xenografts elsewhere. Tissue pieces were minced extensively and digested by collagenase treatment. The single cell solution was then seeded in F-media containing EGF, insulin, hydrocortisone, adenine, cholera toxin and the Rock inhibitor Y-27632. A previously established carcinosarcoma cell line CS99 (Schulten et al, 2008) was used for comparison. To verify origin, Short Tandem Repeat (STR) profiles of the primary cell lines CS13, CS18, CS19, CS21 and CS22 were compared with the patient's tumor samples. Drug sensitivity to Taxol, cisplatin and carboplatin was determined individually or in combination using the sulforhodamine B (SRB) proliferation assay. The effect of IMC-A12 (anti-IGF1R antibody, Eli Lily / Imclone) alone or with chemotherapy was also determined with the SRB assay. Total and promoter-specific IGF2 mRNA levels were determined by reverse transcriptase quantitative PCR. All STR profiles of the primary cell lines matched their patient sample counterparts. IGF2 mRNA expression levels of the cell lines were similar to the patient samples, and over 10,000-fold higher than in CS99. IGF2 promoter-specific primers showed that the IGF2 mRNA transcripts of the primary cell lines were initiated at the oncofetal IGF2 promoters P3 and P4. For Taxol, the IC50 (inhibitory concentration of 50%) ranged from 4.7 nM for CS21 to 9.8 nM for CS22. For cisplatin, the IC50 ranged from 1.0 μM for CS99 to 4.8 μM for CS19. For carboplatin, CS99 cells had the lowest IC50 of 12.5 μM while CS19 had the highest IC50 of 58.1 μM. In the presence of 10 μg/ml IMC-A12, the primary cell lines CS19, CS21 and CS22 showed significant sensitization to Taxol (∼50% decrease in IC50), to carboplatin (∼65% decrease in IC50), and to combination Taxol/carboplatin treatment (∼50% decrease in IC50). We conclude that establishing primary cell lines of this rare cancer is a promising approach for testing sensitivity to current and novel chemotherapies and combination treatment strategies. We also found that high oncofetal promoter-driven IGF2 mRNA expression was observed in all CS samples tested and that IGF1R blockade sensitized the primary cell lines to standard chemotherapy.

    Abstract: Introduction. We previously showed that paclitaxel-resistance of human ovarian carcinoma cell lines was reverted by knockdown of IGF2 with RNA interference. The aim of this study was to determine if our paclitaxel-resistant cell line HEY-T30 was resistant to paclitaxel treatment in vivo and if this resistance could be reverted by IGF2 knockdown through short hairpin RNA. Methods. Paclitaxel-resistant HEY-T30 cells, derived in our laboratory from HEY ovarian carcinoma cells, were transfected with a plasmid containing shRNA to target IGF2 (shIGF2-p) or a nontargeting shRNA (shScrambled). Stably transfected clones were evaluated by reverse transcription real-time PCR for IGF2 mRNA expression and by sulforhodamine cytotoxicity assay for paclitaxel sensitivity. For in vivo experiments, HEY, HEY-T30, shIGF2-p or shScrambled cells were suspended in OptiMem and one million cells/animal injected subcutaneously into 4-week-old female nude mice. Tumors were allowed to grow to a mean volume of 125 mm3, prior to treatment initiation with paclitaxel (20 mg/kg administered intraperitoneally every 3 days x 5 doses) or vehicle (5% dextrose in water; D5W). Animals were weighed and tumors were measured with digital calipers three times per week. Effect of treatment was calculated as effect=1-(T/C) at the indicated time point, where T is the mean tumor volume of the paclitaxel treatment group and C is the mean tumor volume of the vehicle control group. Significance was calculated with a 2-way repeated measures ANOVA with a Bonferroni multiple comparisons post-test. Results. IGF2 mRNA levels of shIGF2-p cells were comparable to HEY, whereas shScrambled was similar to HEY-T30. The IC50s (concentration of 50% inhibition of proliferation) for paclitaxel in vitro were HEY: 2.3 nM; HEY-T30: 164.0 nM; shIGF2-p: 13.89 nM; shScrambled: 140.0 nM. HEY xenografts responded well to paclitaxel treatment, showing a significant growth retardation compared to the D5W group beginning at 9 days after treatment initiation (p=0.0005), with an effect of treatment of 83.2% at day 19. In contrast, HEY-T30 xenografts showed no significant difference in tumor volume between the paclitaxel-treated and the D5W group at any time point, confirming its resistance to paclitaxel (the effect of treatment was 5.5%). shScrambled xenografts were similarly resistant to paclitaxel as HEY-T30 xenografts. shIGF2-p xenografts responded well to paclitaxel treatment, showing a difference in tumor volume from day 15 onward (day 15, p=0.0457; day 19, p=0.0006) with an effect of treatment of 64.1% after 22 days. Discussion. HEY-T30 xenografts are resistant to paclitaxel treatment, whereas HEY xenografts respond well. IGF2 knockdown by shRNA restores paclitaxel sensitivity to the HEY-T30 xenografts. These in vivo results confirm our prior observations in cell lines and suggest a novel target for the treatment of paclitaxel-resistant disease.

    Abstract: Background: The tumor microenvironment is an important factor in cancer immunotherapy response. To further understand how a tumor affects the local immune system, we analyzed immune gene expression differences between matching normal and tumor tissue. Methods: We analyzed public and new gene expression data from solid cancers and isolated immune cell populations. We also determined the correlation between CD8, FoxP3 IHC, and our gene signatures. Results: We observed that regulatory T cells (Tregs) were one of the main drivers of immune gene expression differences between normal and tumor tissue. A tumor-specific CD8 signature was slightly lower in tumor tissue compared with normal of most (12 of 16) cancers, whereas a Treg signature was higher in tumor tissue of all cancers except liver. Clustering by Treg signature found two groups in colorectal cancer datasets. The high Treg cluster had more samples that were consensus molecular subtype 1/4, right-sided, and microsatellite-instable, compared with the low Treg cluster. Finally, we found that the correlation between signature and IHC was low in our small dataset, but samples in the high Treg cluster had significantly more CD8+ and FoxP3+ cells compared with the low Treg cluster. Conclusions: Treg gene expression is highly indicative of the overall tumor immune environment. Impact: In comparison with the consensus molecular subtype and microsatellite status, the Treg signature identifies more colorectal tumors with high immune activation that may benefit from cancer immunotherapy.
