- W3197604100 abstract "Endometrial cancer (EC) is the most commonly diagnosed malignancy of the female reproductive tract. Unfortunately, 15-20% of women demonstrate persistent or recurrent tumors that are refractory to current chemotherapies with an associated poor prognosis. Our laboratory identified activating mutations in Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 2 (FGFR2) in 12% (stage I/II) to 17% (stage III/IV) endometrioid endometrial tumors and have since shown in a large (n=970) multi-institutional cohort they are associated with shorter progression free and cancer specific survival. Although FGFR inhibitors are in clinical trials in several cancer types, no detailed study of the mechanism of cell death has been published. We now show that treatment with BGJ398, AZD4547 and PD173074 leads to the induction of mitochondrial depolarization and changes in metabolic flux in two endometrial cancer cell lines (JHUEM2 and AN3CA) carrying activating mutations (C383R and N550K respectively). Despite this mitochondrial dysfunction, we have convincingly shown that the cell death following FGFR inhibition was caspase-independent, as evidenced by the lack of caspase-3, -7, and -9 activation, absence of PARP cleavage, and the inability of the broad-spectrum caspase inhibitor, Z-VAD-FMK, to prevent cell death. Knockdown of EndoG and AIF, common mediators of caspase-independent death, had no effect. Detailed quantification of LC3 positive puncta shows an increase in autophagy in JHUEM2 and AN3CA cells treated with all FGFR inhibitors. Knockdown of ATG3, ATG7 and ATG12 resulted in a slight increase in Annexin positive cell death indicating that the autophagy was cytoprotective in this context. We have now confirmed this novel caspase-independent cell death is mitochondrial dependent as it can be blocked by overexpression of Bcl-2 and/or Bcl-XL. Importantly we have shown that the combination of FGFR inhibitors with the BH3 mimetic ABT737 can markedly augment this caspase-independent cell death which may have implications for the design of more effective clinical trials." @default.
