Dual mTOR Kinases MLN0128 Inhibitor Sensitizes HR+/HER2+ Breast Cancer Patient-derived Xenografts to Trastuzumab or Fulvestrant

Purpose: Therapeutic strategies against hormonal receptor-positive (HR+)/HER2+ breast cancers with poor response to trastuzumab need to be optimized. Experimental Design: Two HR+/HER2+ patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models named as COH-SC1 and COH-SC31 were established to explore targeted therapies for HER2+ breast cancers. RNA sequencing and RPPA (reverse phase protein array) analyses were conducted to decipher molecular features of the two PDXs and define the therapeutic strategy of interest, validated by in vivo drug efficacy examination and in vitro cell proliferation analysis. Results: Estrogen acted as a growth-driver of trastuzumab-resistant COH-SC31 tumors, but an accelerator in trastuzumab-sensitive COH-SC1 model. In vivo trastuzumab efficacy examination further confirmed the consistent responses between PDXs and the corresponding tumors. Integrative omics analysis revealed that mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and ERα signaling predominantly regulate tumor growth of the two HR+/HER2+ PDXs. Combination of dual mTOR complex inhibitor MLN0128 and anti-HER2 trastuzumab strongly suppressed tumor growth of COH-SC1 PDX accompanied with increasing ER-positive cell population in vivo. Instead, MLN0128 in combination with anti-estrogen fulvestrant significantly halted the growth of HR+/HER2+ cancer cells in vitro and trastuzumab-resistant COH-SC31 as well as trastuzumab-sensitive COH-SC1 tumors in vivo. Conclusion:Compared to the standard trastuzumab treatment, this study demonstrates alternative therapeutic strategies against HR+/HER2+ tumors through establishment of two PDXs coupling with integrative omics analyses and in vivo drug efficacy examination. This work presents a prototype of future "co-clinical" trials to tailor personalized medicine in clinical practice.
