Type II endometrial carcinomas (ECs) are responsible for most endometrial cancer-related deaths due to their aggressive nature, late stage detection and high tolerance for standard therapies. However, there are no targeted therapies for type II ECs, and they are still treated the same way as the clinically indolent and easily treatable type I ECs. Therefore, type II ECs are in need of new treatment options. More recently, molecular analysis of endometrial cancer revealed phosphorylation-dependent oncogenic signalling in the phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase (PI3K) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways to be most frequently altered in type II ECs. Consequently, clinical trials tested pharmacologic kinase inhibitors targeting these pathways, although mostly with rather disappointing results. In this review, we highlight the most common genetic alterations in type II ECs. Additionally, we reason why most clinical trials for ECs using targeted kinase inhibitors had unsatisfying results and what should be changed in future clinical trial setups. Furthermore, we argue that, besides kinases, phosphatases should no longer be ignored in clinical trials, particularly in type II ECs, where the tumour suppressive phosphatase protein phosphatase type 2A (PP2A) is frequently mutated. Lastly, we discuss the therapeutic potential of targeting PP2A for (re)activation, possibly in combination with pharmacologic kinase inhibitors.

ABSTRACTMacrophages are susceptible to human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection despite abundant expression of antiviral proteins. Perhaps the most important antiviral protein is the restriction factor sterile alpha motif domain and histidine/aspartic acid domain-containing protein 1 (SAMHD1). We investigated the role of SAMHD1 and its phospho-dependent regulation in the context of HIV-1 infection in primary human monocyte-derived macrophages and the ability of various interferons (IFNs) and pharmacologic agents to modulate SAMHD1. Here we show that stimulation by type I, type II, and to a lesser degree, type III interferons share activation of SAMHD1 via dephosphorylation at threonine-592 as a consequence of signaling. Cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDK1), a known effector kinase for SAMHD1, was downregulated at the protein level by all IFN types tested. Pharmacologic inhibition or small interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated knockdown of CDK1 phenocopied the effects of IFN on SAMHD1. A panel of FDA-approved tyrosine kinase inhibitors potently induced activation of SAMHD1 and subsequent HIV-1 inhibition. The viral restriction imposed via IFNs or dasatinib could be overcome through depletion of SAMHD1, indicating that their effects are exerted primarily through this pathway. Our results demonstrate that SAMHD1 activation, but not transcriptional upregulation or protein induction, is the predominant mechanism of HIV-1 restriction induced by type I, type II, and type III IFN signaling in macrophages. Furthermore, SAMHD1 activation presents a pharmacologically actionable target through which HIV-1 infection can be subverted.IMPORTANCEOur experimental results demonstrate that SAMHD1 dephosphorylation at threonine-592 represents a central mechanism of HIV-1 restriction that is common to the three known families of IFNs. While IFN types I and II were potent inhibitors of HIV-1, type III IFN showed modest to undetectable activity. Regulation of SAMHD1 by IFNs involved changes in phosphorylation status but not in protein levels. Phosphorylation of SAMHD1 in macrophages occurred at least in part via CDK1. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors similarly induced SAMHD1 dephosphorylation, which protects macrophages from HIV-1 in a SAMHD1-dependent manner. SAMHD1 is a critical restriction factor regulating HIV-1 infection of macrophages.

Clear Cell Rcc

TPS4599 Background: PRCC constitutes approximately 15% of RCC cases, and no standard of care exists for metastatic disease. Approved VEGF- and mTOR-directed therapies for clear cell RCC in metastatic PRCC (mPRCC) have generally been ineffective. Trials assessing sunitinib and everolimus in non-clear cell RCC show a numerical advantage in progression-free survival (PFS) with sunitinib therapy. Prospective studies evaluating sunitinib in mPRCC show a broad range of efficacy, with PFS ranging from 1.6-6.6 months. Another possible approach to treating mPRCC is to target the MET protooncogene, which is frequently altered across both type I and type II disease. SWOG 1500 is a randomized, phase II study which will compare sunitinib to three MET-directed therapies in pts with mPRCC. Methods: Eligible pts will have PRCC (type I, type II or NOS), Zubrod performance status 0-1, and measurable metastatic disease. Pts may have received up to 1 prior systemic therapy, with the exception of prior VEGF-directed treatments. Treated brain metastases are allowed. Tissue must be available for central pathologic review of papillary subtype. Pts will receive either oral sunitinib, cabozantinib, crizotinib or savolitinib in a 1:1:1:1 randomization, with stratification by (1) prior therapy (0 vs 1) and (2) PRCC subtype (type I vs type II vs NOS). The primary endpoint of the study is to compare PFS with sunitinib to PFS with MET-directed therapies. Secondary endpoints in the study include comparison of response rate, overall survival and safety profile. Translational aims of the study include correlation of clinical outcome with MET mutation, copy number and other markers of MET signaling. Radiographic assessment will be performed every 12 wks. Interim analyses are planned for each arm. A total of 275 pts will be enrolled, with 26 pts registered as of Jan 30, 2017. Clinical trial information: NCT02761057.

Abstract Objection: To investigate the clinical value and significance of preoperative three-dimensional computerized tomography angiography (CTA) in laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.Methods: The clinical data were analyzed retrospectively from 214 gastric cancer patients. We grouped according to whether to perform CTA. The gastric peripheral artery was classified according to CTA images of patients in the CTA group, and we compared and analyzed the difference of the data between the two groups.Results: The celiac trunk was classified according to Adachi classification: Type I (118/125, 94.4%),Type II (3/125, 2.4%),Type III (0/125, 0%),Type IV (1/125, 0.8%),Type V (2/125, 1.6%),Type VI (1/125, 0.8%).Hepatic artery classification was performed according to Hiatt classification standard:Type I (102/125, 81.6％),Type II (9/125, 7.2%),Type III (6/125, 4.8%),Type IV (2/125, 1.6%),Type V (3/125, 2.4%),Type VI (0, 0%),Others (3/125, 2.4%).And this study combined vascular anatomy and clinical surgical risk to establish a new splenic artery classification model. It was found that the operation time and estimated blood loss in the CTA group were significantly lower than those in the non-CTA group. In addition, the blood loss in the CTA group combined with ICG (Indocyanine Green) labeled fluorescence laparoscopy was significantly less than that in the group without ICG labeled. Conclusion: Preoperative CTA can objectively evaluate the vascular course and variation of patients, and then avoid the risk of operation, especially in combination with ICG labeled fluorescence laparoscopy, can further improve the quality of operation.

270 Background: MET signaling is a key molecular driver in pRCC. Given that there is no optimal therapy for metastatic pRCC, we sought to compare an existing standard (sunitinib) to putative MET kinase inhibitors. Methods: Eligible patients had pathologically verified pRCC, Zubrod performance status 0-1, and measurable metastatic disease. Patients may have received up to 1 prior systemic therapy excluding VEGF-directed agents. Patients were randomized 1:1:1:1 to receive either sunitinib 50 mg po qd (4 wks on/2 wks off), cabozantinib 60 mg po qd, crizotinib 250 mg po bid, or savolitinib 600 mg po qd. Patients were stratified by prior therapy and pRCC subtype (I vs II vs not otherwise specified [NOS]) based on local review. The primary objective was to compare progression-free survival (PFS) for each experimental arm versus sunitinib. With 41 eligible patients per arm, we estimated 85% power to detect a 75% improvement in median PFS with a 1-sided alpha of 0.10 using intent-to-treat analysis. A pre-planned futility analysis was performed after 50% of PFS events occurred. Secondary endpoints included toxicity, response rate, and overall survival. Results: Between 4/2016 and 12/2019, 152 patients were enrolled; 5 were ineligible. Median age was 66 (range:29-89) and 76% were male; 92% had no prior therapy. By local pathologic review, 18%, 54% and 28% of patients were characterized as having type I, type II and NOS histology, respectively. In contrast, the frequency of type I, type II, and NOS by central review was 30%, 45% and 25%, respectively. Accrual to the savolitinib and crizotinib arms was halted early for futility (PFS hazard ratio > 1.0 for both); accrual continued to completion in the sunitinib and cabozantinib arms. Median PFS was significantly higher with cabozantinib relative to sunitinib (Table). Grade 3 or 4 adverse events occurred in 69%, 72%, 37% and 39% of patients receiving sunitinib, cabozantinib, crizotinib and savolitinib, respectively; one grade 5 adverse event was seen with cabozantinib. Overall survival and response data will be presented. Conclusions: In this multi-arm randomized trial, only cabozantinib resulted in a statistically significant and clinically meaningful prolongation of PFS in pRCC patients compared to sunitinib. These data support cabozantinib as a reference standard for eligible patients with metastatic pRCC. Clinical trial information: NCT02761057 . [Table: see text]

Much effort has been devoted to the development of selective inhibitors of the LRRK2 as a potential treatment for LRRK2 driven Parkinson's disease. In this study we first compare the properties of Type I (GSK3357679A and MLi-2) and Type II (GZD-824, Rebastinib and Ponatinib) kinase inhibitors that bind to the closed or open conformations of the LRRK2 kinase domain, respectively. We show that Type I and Type II inhibitors suppress phosphorylation of Rab10 and Rab12, key physiological substrates of LRRK2 and also promote mitophagy, a process suppressed by LRRK2. Type II inhibitors also display higher potency towards wild type LRRK2 compared to pathogenic mutants. Unexpectedly, we find that Type II inhibitors, in contrast to Type I compounds, fail to induce dephosphorylation of a set of well-studied LRRK2 biomarker phosphorylation sites at the N-terminal region of LRRK2, including Ser935. These findings emphasize that the biomarker phosphorylation sites on LRRK2 are likely reporting on the open vs closed conformation of LRRK2 kinase and that only inhibitors which stabilize the closed conformation induce dephosphorylation of these biomarker sites. Finally, we demonstrate that the LRRK2[A2016T] mutant which is resistant to MLi-2 Type 1 inhibitor, also induces resistance to GZD-824 and Rebastinib suggesting this mutation could be exploited to distinguish off target effects of Type II inhibitors. Our observations provide a framework of knowledge to aide with the development of more selective Type II LRRK2 inhibitors.

Risk Of Cancer

Abstract Background Gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM) is a significant risk factor for gastric cancer. Risk of gastric cancer/dysplasia between complete intestinal metaplasia (CIM) and incomplete intestinal metaplasia (IIM) was controversial. Our study aimed to pool relative risk (RR) of cancer/dysplasia of IIM compared with CIM in GIM patients. Methods PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library and Web of Science were searched for studies concerning cancer/dysplasia in GIM patients. Random-effects or fixed-effects model was utilized for pooling RR. Sensitivity and publication bias analyses were conducted. Stability of results would be evaluated in case of publication bias. Results 12 studies were included. Compared with CIM, pooled RR of cancer/dysplasia in IIM patients was 4.48 (95% CI 2.50–8.03), and the RR was 4.96 (95% CI 2.72–9.04) for cancer, and 4.82 (95% CI 1.45–16.0) for dysplasia. The pooled RR for cancer/dysplasia in type III IM was 6.27 (95% CI 1.89–20.77) compared with type II + I IM, while it was 5.55 (95% CI 2.07–14.92) compared with type II IM. Pooled RR between type II IM and type I IM was 1.62 (95% CI 1.16–2.27). Subgroup analyses showed that IIM was associated with a higher risk of gastric cancer/dysplasia in Western population (pooled RR = 4.65 95% CI 2.30–9.42), but not in East Asian population (pooled RR = 4.01 95% CI 0.82–19.61). Conclusions IIM was related to a higher risk of cancer/dysplasia compared with CIM. Risk of developing cancer/dysplasia from type I, II, and III intestinal metaplasia increased gradually.
