TPS354 Background: BRCA1-Associated Protein 1 (BAP1) is a critical regulator of the cell cycle, cellular differentiation, cell death, and DNA damage response. It also acts as a tumor suppressor. Preclinical models demonstrate significant synthetic lethality in BAP1 mutant cell lines and patient xenografts when treated with PARP inhibitors, independent of underlying BRCA status, suggesting this mutation confers a BRCA-like phenotype. BAP1 is mutated, leading to a loss of functional protein, in up to 30% of cholangiocarcinomas as well as several other solid tumors. Methods: This phase 2, open-label, single arm multicenter study aims to exploit the concept of synthetic lethality with the use of the PARP inhibitor niraparib in pts with metastatic relapsed or refractory solid tumors. Eligible pts with measurable metastatic and incurable solid tumors are assigned to one of two cohorts: Cohort A (histology-specific): tumors harboring suspected BAP1 mutations including cholangiocarcinoma, uveal melanoma, mesothelioma or clear cell renal cell carcinoma with tissue available for BAP1 mutational assessment via NGS or Cohort B (histology-agnostic): tumors with known DNA damage response (DDR) mutations (Table) confirmed by CLIA-approved NGS. Other key eligibility criteria include age ≥18 years, adequate cardiac, renal, hepatic function and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 to 1. Pts with known BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations or prior PARPi exposure are excluded. Pts receive niraparib 200-300mg daily (depending on weight and/or platelet count) continuously. Primary endpoint is objective response rate with secondary endpoints of PFS, OS, toxicity and exploratory biomarker determinations. Radiographic response by RECIST criteria is measured every 8 weeks while on treatment. Cohort A has fully enrolled. Cohort B enrollment continues to a maximum of 47 total evaluable subjects with expansion cohorts allowable for histologic or molecular subtypes meeting pre-specified responses.

SAMHD1 is a deoxynucleotide triphosphate (dNTP) triphosphohydrolase with important roles in the control of cell proliferation and apoptosis, either through the regulation of intracellular dNTPs levels or the modulation of the DNA damage response. However, SAMHD1 role in cancer evolution is still unknown. We performed the first in-depth study of SAMHD1 role in advanced solid tumors, by analyzing samples of 128 patients treated with chemotherapy agents based on platinum derivatives and/or antimetabolites and developing novel in vitro knock-out models to explore the mechanisms driving SAMHD1 function in cancer. Low or no expression of SAMHD1 was associated with a positive prognosis in breast, ovarian and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cancer patients. A predictive value was associated to low-SAMHD1 expression in NSCLC and ovarian patients treated with antimetabolites in combination with platinum derivatives. In vitro, SAMHD1 knock-out cells showed increased γ-H2AX and apoptosis suggesting that SAMHD1 depletion induces DNA damage leading to cell death. In vitro treatment with platinum-derived drugs significantly enhanced γ-H2AX and apoptotic markers expression in knock-out cells, indicating a synergic effect of SAMHD1 depletion and platinum-based treatment. SAMHD1 expression represents a new strong prognostic and predictive biomarker in solid tumors and thus, modulation of SAMHD1 function may constitute a promising target for the improvement of cancer therapy.
