项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY This application is being submitted in response to the Notice of Special Interest (NOSI) identified as NOT-CA- 23-045. Patients with EGFR mutant lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) are treated with EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) because they yield better patient outcomes than previous standards of care. EGFR TKI are not curative, however, as virtually all patients progress on therapy due to acquired drug resistance. While genetic mechanisms of acquired EGFR TKI resistance are well understood, non-genetic mechanisms also play an important role. Dynamic and reversible transcriptional adaptations involving lineage state changes support the survival and progression of LUAD cells during treatment. The mechanisms and genetic determinants controlling this LUAD lineage plasticity are not well understood. Advancing fundamental understanding of LUAD lineage plasticity is a prerequisite for the development of therapeutic approaches to predict it, suppress it, and improve therapeutic outcomes. Through analysis of both clinical specimens and experimental models, the collaborating investigators have discovered that minimal residual disease surviving EGFR TKI shows induction of a quiescent, alveolar lineage state. This state is lost in cells proliferating and progressing through EGFR TKI and is replaced by alternative lineage states less dependent on oncogenic EGFR signaling. In currently parallel lines of research within the collaborating investigators labs, YAP1 activity has been demonstrated to drive the alveolar lineage state while RB1 loss accelerates the further transition to alternative, EGFR independent lineage states. These findings suggest YAP1 and RB1 interact to control lineage state transitions during EGFR TKI therapy that ultimately facilitate acquired therapeutic resistance. This ARTNET supplement application is proposed to support collaborative research in two specific aims that will test this hypothesis and validate new genetically engineered mouse models for studying LUAD lineage plasticity in vivo, additionally enabling the study of how non-malignant cells within the tumor microenvironment influence LUAD lineage plasticity and vice versa.

项目概要本申请是为了响应被识别为 NOT-CA- 的特殊利益通知 (NOSI) 而提交的 23-045。 EGFR 突变型肺腺癌 (LUAD) 患者接受 EGFR 酪氨酸激酶治疗抑制剂（TKI），因为它们比以前的护理标准能产生更好的患者结果。 EGFR TKI 不是然而，由于几乎所有患者由于获得性耐药性而在治疗上取得进展，因此具有治愈性。虽然遗传获得性 EGFR TKI 耐药的机制已广为人知，非遗传机制也发挥着重要作用重要作用。涉及谱系状态变化的动态和可逆转录适应支持治疗期间 LUAD 细胞的存活和进展。控制机制和遗传决定因素这种 LUAD 谱系的可塑性还没有被很好地理解。增进对 LUAD 谱系的基本理解可塑性是开发预测可塑性、抑制可塑性和改善可塑性的治疗方法的先决条件治疗结果。通过对临床标本和实验模型的分析，合作研究人员发现，EGFR TKI 存活下来的微小残留病表现出静止状态的诱导，肺泡谱系状态。这种状态在通过 EGFR TKI 进行增殖和进展的细胞中消失并被替换替代谱系状态对致癌 EGFR 信号传导的依赖程度较低。在目前并行的研究中在合作研究人员实验室中，YAP1 活性已被证明可以驱动肺泡谱系状态，而 RB1 丢失则加速进一步过渡到替代的、独立于 EGFR 的谱系状态。这些研究结果表明，YAP1 和 RB1 相互作用以控制 EGFR TKI 治疗期间的谱系状态转变，最终促进获得性治疗耐药。该 ARTNET 补充应用程序旨在支持两个特定目标的合作研究，这些目标将测试这一假设并验证新的基因用于研究体内 LUAD 谱系可塑性的工程小鼠模型，另外还能够研究如何肿瘤微环境中的非恶性细胞影响 LUAD 谱系可塑性，反之亦然。
