- W3040981454 abstract "BACKGROUND: Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy. While women with BRCA deficient tumors show sensitivity to PARP inhibitors (PARPi), new treatment options are urgently needed for patients with PARPi-resistant tumors. An emerging strategy to improve PARPi response is combination therapy with epigenetic drugs. A recently recognized epigenetic drug target in ovarian cancer is the bromodomain and extraterminal (BET) family of proteins. BET proteins such as BRD4 promote oncogenic transcription of genes promoting cell growth, survival and DNA repair. One example is the well-established link between inflammation and cancer, nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-κB). In syngeneic mouse ovarian cancer models, M2-like pro-tumor macrophages are a prominent component of the ovarian cancer tumor microenvironment (TME). NF-κB inhibition can reduce the M2 macrophage population; however, more sustained treatment with a systemic NF-κB inhibitor leads to more ascites and reduced survival time. Thus, BET inhibitors (BETi) have the potential to induce transcriptional reprogramming in tumors and macrophages that may be beneficial or harmful depending on context. OBJECTIVE: To determine the cellular and molecular effects of combining BETi and PARPi in mouse ovarian cancer cells and peritoneal macrophages. METHODS: Cultured ID8 mouse ovarian cancer cells, PMJ2-PC mouse peritoneal macrophages and immortalized bone marrow-derived macrophages were treated with vehicle, the PARPi olaparib, the BETi JQ1 or the JQ1/olaparib combination for 24-72h. Sulforhodamine B (SRB) assays assessed cell growth in vitro. C57BL/6 mice injected intra-peritoneally (IP) with ID8 cells were treated with JQ1 (30 days, 50mg/kg by IP injection) with volume of ascites fluid, weight of harvested tumor, and number of tumor implants assessed. Markers of apoptosis (cleaved PARP or cleaved caspase-3), and DNA damage (pH2AX) were measured by immunohistochemistry or western blot. NF-κB activity was measured by luciferase assays of a NF-κB reporter plasmid. Expression of M1 (CCL3) and M2 (CD206, arginase-1) macrophage markers was measured by quantitative real-time RT-PCR (QPCR). RESULTS: In culture, JQ1 treatment sensitized ID8 ovarian cancer cells to olaparib-induced growth inhibition, DNA damage and apoptosis. However, despite modest stimulatory effects on DNA damage and apoptosis of long-term JQ1 treatment in ID8 tumors in vivo, JQ1 unexpectedly increased ascites formation without reducing overall tumor burden. In macrophages, there were also contrasting effects between JQ1 treatment in vitro and in vivo. JQ1 alone or combined with olaparib reduced NF-κB activity in cultured macrophage cell lines, and increased expression of CCL3, and reduced CD206 and arginase-1 expression. In contrast, increased ascites due to JQ1 treatment in vivo was accompanied by a pronounced M2 macrophage shift. CONCLUSIONS: Sustained inhibition of NF-κB activity in macrophages and potentially other cells in the ovarian TME could have overall deleterious effects on tumor progression. Our results strongly suggest that the therapeutic effects of BETi in ovarian cancer, and any therapeutic agent with the potential to alter cell function in the tumor microenvironment, need to be more thoroughly tested in the context of functional immune system before being translated to patients. This is particularly relevant since BETi are currently being tested in human patients in early clinical trials. Citation Format: Andrew J.
