cohort of 98 younger 395 | (age <65 years) PTC patients.Younger and elderly PTC patients had 396 | similar incidences of BRAF-positive tumors (41% vs. 38%; p = 0.67). The 397 | elderly cohort was more likely to have smaller tumors (mean 1.6 vs. 2.1 398 | cm; p = 0.001), present with advanced TNM stage (36% vs. 19%; p = 399 | 0.008), and have persistent/recurrent disease (10% vs. 1%; p = 0.006). 400 | BRAF-positive status was associated with PTC that were tall cell variant 401 | (p < 0.001), had extrathyroidal extension (p < 0.001), lymph node 402 | involvement (p = 0.008), advanced (III/IV) TNM stage (p < 0.001), and 403 | disease recurrence (p < 0.001). Except for lymph node involvement, the 404 | association between aggressive histology characteristics at presentation 405 | and BRAF-positive PTC also was observed within the age-defined cohorts. 406 | In short-term follow-up (mean, 18 months), persistent/recurrent PTC was 407 | much more likely to occur in patients who were both BRAF-positive and 408 | elderly (22%).BRAF mutations are equally present in younger and older 409 | patients. Aggressive histology characteristics at presentation are 410 | associated with BRAF-positive PTC, irrespective of age. However, the 411 | well-established association of BRAF with recurrence is limited to older 412 | (age ≥65 years) patients. 413 | Author String: 414 | Gina M Howell, Sally E Carty, Michaele J Armstrong, Shane O Lebeau, 415 | Steven P Hodak, Christopher Coyne, Michael T Stang, Kelly L McCoy, 416 | Marina N Nikiforova, Yuri E Nikiforov, Linwah Yip 417 | Citation: Howell et al., 2011 418 | Citation Id: 21594703 419 | Id: 93 420 | Journal: Ann Surg Oncol 421 | Link: /sources/93 422 | Name: PubMed: Howell et al., 2011 423 | Open Access: False 424 | Publication Date: 2011-12 425 | Retracted: False 426 | Source Type: PUBMED 427 | Source Url: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21594703 428 | Title: 429 | Both BRAF V600E mutation and older age (≥ 65 years) are associated with 430 | recurrent papillary thyroid cancer. 431 | 432 | #### Evidence Items 433 | Description: 434 | Dabrafenib with trametinib provides higher response rate and lower 435 | toxicity (as compared to chemotherapy) in patients with melanoma. 436 | Evidence Direction: SUPPORTS 437 | Evidence Level: B 438 | Evidence Rating: 5 439 | Evidence Type: PREDICTIVE 440 | Flagged: False 441 | Id: 95 442 | Name: EID95 443 | Significance: SENSITIVITYRESPONSE 444 | Variant Origin: SOMATIC 445 | 446 | ##### Disease 447 | Disease Url: https://www.disease-ontology.org/?id=DOID:1909 448 | Display Name: Melanoma 449 | Doid: 1909 450 | Id: 7 451 | Link: /diseases/7 452 | Name: Melanoma 453 | 454 | ##### My Disease Info 455 | Do Def: 456 | A cell type cancer that has_material_basis_in abnormally proliferating 457 | cells derives_from melanocytes which are found in skin, the bowel and 458 | the eye. 459 | Icdo: 8720/3 460 | Mesh: D008545 461 | Mondo Id: MONDO:0005105 462 | Ncit: C3224 463 | Disease Aliases: Malignant Melanoma, Naevocarcinoma 464 | 465 | ##### Molecular Profile 466 | Id: 12 467 | 468 | ##### Source 469 | Abstract: 470 | Dabrafenib and trametinib were approved for use as monotherapies in 471 | BRAF-mutant metastatic melanoma by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration 472 | (FDA) in 2013, and most recently, their use in combination has received 473 | accelerated FDA approval. Both drugs target the mitogen-activated 474 | protein kinase (MAPK) pathway: dabrafenib selectively inhibits mutant 475 | BRAF that constitutively activates the pathway, and trametinib 476 | selectively inhibits MEK1 and MEK2 proteins activated by RAF kinases. 477 | The phase III study of dabrafenib in BRAF(V600E) metastatic melanoma 478 | reported rapid tumor regression in most patients and a 59% objective 479 | RECIST response rate.

melanomas harbor activating mutations in the 629 | BRAF and NRAS genes, the alterations that drive tumor progression in the 630 | remaining 30% are largely undefined. Vemurafenib, a selective inhibitor 631 | of RAF kinases, has clinical utility restricted to BRAF-mutant tumors. 632 | MEK inhibitors, which have shown clinical activity in NRAS-mutant 633 | melanoma, may be effective in other ERK pathway-dependent settings. 634 | Here, we investigated a panel of melanoma cell lines wild type for BRAF 635 | and NRAS to determine the genetic alteration driving their 636 | transformation and their dependence on ERK signaling in order to 637 | elucidate a candidate set for MEK inhibitor treatment. A cohort of the 638 | BRAF/RAS wild type cell lines with high levels of RAS-GTP had loss of 639 | NF1, a RAS GTPase activating protein. In these cell lines, the MEK 640 | inhibitor PD0325901 inhibited ERK phosphorylation, but also relieved 641 | feedback inhibition of RAS, resulting in induction of pMEK and a rapid 642 | rebound in ERK signaling. In contrast, the MEK inhibitor trametinib 643 | impaired the adaptive response of cells to ERK inhibition, leading to 644 | sustained suppression of ERK signaling and significant antitumor 645 | effects. Notably, alterations in NF1 frequently co-occurred with RAS and 646 | BRAF alterations in melanoma. In the setting of BRAF(V600E), NF1 loss 647 | abrogated negative feedback on RAS activation, resulting in elevated 648 | activation of RAS-GTP and resistance to RAF, but not MEK, inhibitors. We 649 | conclude that loss of NF1 is common in cutaneous melanoma and is 650 | associated with RAS activation, MEK-dependence, and resistance to RAF 651 | inhibition. 652 | Author String: 653 | Moriah H Nissan, Christine A Pratilas, Alexis M Jones, Ricardo Ramirez, 654 | Helen Won, Cailian Liu, Shakuntala Tiwari, Li Kong, Aphrothiti J 655 | Hanrahan, Zhan Yao, Taha Merghoub, Antoni Ribas, Paul B Chapman, Rona 656 | Yaeger, Barry S Taylor, Nikolaus Schultz, Michael F Berger, Neal Rosen, 657 | David B Solit 658 | Citation: Nissan et al., 2014 659 | Citation Id: 24576830 660 | Id: 98 661 | Journal: Cancer Res 662 | Link: /sources/98 663 | Name: PubMed: Nissan et al., 2014 664 | Open Access: True 665 | Pmc Id: PMC4005042 666 | Publication Date: 2014-4-15 667 | Retracted: False 668 | Source Type: PUBMED 669 | Source Url: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24576830 670 | Title: 671 | Loss of NF1 in cutaneous melanoma is associated with RAS activation and 672 | MEK dependence. 673 | 674 | ##### Therapies 675 | Deprecated: False 676 | Id: 4 677 | Link: /therapies/4 678 | Name: Vemurafenib 679 | 680 | #### Evidence Items 681 | Description: 682 | BRAF V600E is correlated with poor prognosis in papillary thyroid cancer 683 | in a study of 187 patients with PTC and other thyroid diseases. 684 | Evidence Direction: SUPPORTS 685 | Evidence Level: B 686 | Evidence Rating: 3 687 | Evidence Type: PROGNOSTIC 688 | Flagged: False 689 | Id: 106 690 | Name: EID106 691 | Significance: POOR_OUTCOME 692 | Variant Origin: SOMATIC 693 | 694 | ##### Disease 695 | Disease Url: https://www.disease-ontology.org/?id=DOID:3969 696 | Display Name: Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma 697 | Doid: 3969 698 | Id: 156 699 | Link: /diseases/156 700 | Name: Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma 701 | 702 | ##### My Disease Info 703 | Do Def: 704 | A differentiated thyroid gland carcinoma that is characterized by the 705 | small mushroom shape of the tumor which has a stem attached to the 706 | epithelial layer and arises from the follicular cells of the thyroid 707 | gland. 708 | Icdo: 8260/3 709 | Mesh: D000077273 710 | Mondo Id: MONDO:0005075 711 | Ncit: C4035 712 | Disease Aliases: 713 | - Papillary Carcinoma Of The Thyroid Gland 714 | - Papillary Carcinoma Of Thyroid 715 | - Thyroid Gland Papillary Carcinoma 716 | 717 | ##### Molecular Profile 718 | Id: 12 719 | 720 | ##### Source 721 | Abstract: 722 | The aim of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of the 723 | BRAF V600E mutation in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and to 724 | determine the correlation between this mutation and indicators of poor 725 | prognosis and outcome in patients with PTC. The BRAF V600E mutation 726 | status was analyzed in 187 tumor samples using the multiplex allele- 727 | specific PCR method. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed 728 | to investigate the association of the BRAF V600E mutation with clinical 729 | features and patient outcome. The sensitivity of the multiplex allele- 730 | specific PCR combined with denaturing high-performance liquid 731 | chromatography reached ~1%. The BRAF V600E mutation was observed in 732 | 63.6% (119/187) of tumor tissues, predominantly in PTC specimens, and no 733 | BRAF mutation was identified in other benign-type thyroid diseases. The 734 | univariate analysis indicated that the BRAF V600E mutation was 735 | associated with age, tumor stage and prognosis (P<0.05). In addition, 736 | the frequency of the BRAF V600E mutation was significantly different in 737 | the central (75.3%) and lateral neck (49.3%) lymph nodes of patients 738 | with lymph node metastasis. Multivariate logistic regression analysis 739 | showed that the BRAF V600E mutation (HR, 2.471; 95% CI, 1.149-5.312) and 740 | lymph node metastasis (HR, 3.003; 95% CI, 1.027-8.771) are independent 741 | factors that predict tumor prognosis. Thus, the BRAF V600E mutation is 742 | an independent risk factor that may be used to predict thyroid cancer 743 | persistence/recurrence. 744 | Author String: Guoping He, Baojian Zhao, Xu Zhang, Rixiang Gong 745 | Citation: He et al., 2014 746 | Citation Id: 24396464 747 | Id: 112 748 | Journal: Oncol Lett 749 | Link: /sources/112 750 | Name: PubMed: He et al., 2014 751 | Open Access: True 752 | Pmc Id: PMC3881916 753 | Publication Date: 2014-2 754 | Retracted: False 755 | Source Type: PUBMED 756 | Source Url: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24396464 757 | Title: 758 | Prognostic value of the BRAF V600E mutation in papillary thyroid 759 | carcinoma. 760 | 761 | #### Evidence Items 762 | Description: 763 | V600E is correlated with disease recurrence in both age cohorts (>65 and 764 | <65 yo). 765 | Evidence Direction: SUPPORTS 766 | Evidence Level: B 767 | Evidence Rating: 3 768 | Evidence Type: PROGNOSTIC 769 | Flagged: False 770 | Id: 107 771 | Name: EID107 772 | Significance: POOR_OUTCOME 773 | Variant Origin: SOMATIC 774 | 775 | ##### Disease 776 | Disease Url: https://www.disease-ontology.org/?id=DOID:3969 777 | Display Name: Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma 778 | Doid: 3969 779 | Id: 156 780 | Link: /diseases/156 781 | Name: Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma 782 | 783 | ##### My Disease Info 784 | Do Def: 785 | A differentiated thyroid gland carcinoma that is characterized by the 786 | small mushroom shape of the tumor which has a stem attached to the 787 | epithelial layer and arises from the follicular cells of the thyroid 788 | gland. 789 | Icdo: 8260/3 790 | Mesh: D000077273 791 | Mondo Id: MONDO:0005075 792 | Ncit: C4035 793 | Disease Aliases: 794 | - Papillary Carcinoma Of The Thyroid Gland 795 | - Papillary Carcinoma Of Thyroid 796 | - Thyroid Gland Papillary Carcinoma 797 | 798 | ##### Molecular Profile 799 | Id: 12 800 | 801 | ##### Source 802 | Abstract: 803 | This study was designed to examine the aggressive features of BRAF- 804 | positive papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) and association with age.We 805 | compared the clinicopathologic parameters and BRAF V600E mutation status 806 | of 121 elderly (age ≥65 years) PTC patients who underwent thyroidectomy 807 | from January 2007 to December 2009 to a consecutive cohort of 98 younger 808 | (age <65 years) PTC patients.Younger and elderly PTC patients had 809 | similar incidences of BRAF-positive tumors (41% vs. 38%; p = 0.67).

Vemurafenib, a selective inhibitor 1196 | of RAF kinases, has clinical utility restricted to BRAF-mutant tumors. 1197 | MEK inhibitors, which have shown clinical activity in NRAS-mutant 1198 | melanoma, may be effective in other ERK pathway-dependent settings. 1199 | Here, we investigated a panel of melanoma cell lines wild type for BRAF 1200 | and NRAS to determine the genetic alteration driving their 1201 | transformation and their dependence on ERK signaling in order to 1202 | elucidate a candidate set for MEK inhibitor treatment. A cohort of the 1203 | BRAF/RAS wild type cell lines with high levels of RAS-GTP had loss of 1204 | NF1, a RAS GTPase activating protein. In these cell lines, the MEK 1205 | inhibitor PD0325901 inhibited ERK phosphorylation, but also relieved 1206 | feedback inhibition of RAS, resulting in induction of pMEK and a rapid 1207 | rebound in ERK signaling. In contrast, the MEK inhibitor trametinib 1208 | impaired the adaptive response of cells to ERK inhibition, leading to 1209 | sustained suppression of ERK signaling and significant antitumor 1210 | effects. Notably, alterations in NF1 frequently co-occurred with RAS and 1211 | BRAF alterations in melanoma. In the setting of BRAF(V600E), NF1 loss 1212 | abrogated negative feedback on RAS activation, resulting in elevated 1213 | activation of RAS-GTP and resistance to RAF, but not MEK, inhibitors. We 1214 | conclude that loss of NF1 is common in cutaneous melanoma and is 1215 | associated with RAS activation, MEK-dependence, and resistance to RAF 1216 | inhibition. 1217 | Author String: 1218 | Moriah H Nissan, Christine A Pratilas, Alexis M Jones, Ricardo Ramirez, 1219 | Helen Won, Cailian Liu, Shakuntala Tiwari, Li Kong, Aphrothiti J 1220 | Hanrahan, Zhan Yao, Taha Merghoub, Antoni Ribas, Paul B Chapman, Rona 1221 | Yaeger, Barry S Taylor, Nikolaus Schultz, Michael F Berger, Neal Rosen, 1222 | David B Solit 1223 | Citation: Nissan et al., 2014 1224 | Citation Id: 24576830 1225 | Id: 98 1226 | Journal: Cancer Res 1227 | Link: /sources/98 1228 | Name: PubMed: Nissan et al., 2014 1229 | Open Access: True 1230 | Pmc Id: PMC4005042 1231 | Publication Date: 2014-4-15 1232 | Retracted: False 1233 | Source Type: PUBMED 1234 | Source Url: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24576830 1235 | Title: 1236 | Loss of NF1 in cutaneous melanoma is associated with RAS activation and 1237 | MEK dependence. 1238 | 1239 | ##### Therapies 1240 | Deprecated: False 1241 | Id: 19 1242 | Link: /therapies/19 1243 | Name: Trametinib 1244 | 1245 | ##### Therapies 1246 | Deprecated: False 1247 | Id: 29 1248 | Link: /therapies/29 1249 | Name: Mirdametinib 1250 | 1251 | #### Evidence Items 1252 | Description: 1253 | In a mouse in vivo study of MEK protein inhibitor, PD-0325901, was able 1254 | to suppress growth of SKMEL28 BRAF-V600E xenograft tumors (P<0.01).

Using small-molecule inhibitors 1294 | of MEK and an integrated genetic and pharmacologic analysis, we find 1295 | that mutation of BRAF is associated with enhanced and selective 1296 | sensitivity to MEK inhibition when compared to either 'wild-type' cells 1297 | or cells harbouring a RAS mutation.

The recommended phase 2 dose was 960 mg twice daily, 1459 | with increases in the dose limited by grade 2 or 3 rash, fatigue, and 1460 | arthralgia. In the dose-escalation cohort, among the 16 patients with 1461 | melanoma whose tumors carried the V600E BRAF mutation and who were 1462 | receiving 240 mg or more of PLX4032 twice daily, 10 had a partial 1463 | response and 1 had a complete response.

Pre-clinical studies 1533 | have demonstrated that the B-RAF(V600E) mutation predicts a dependency 1534 | on the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signalling cascade in 1535 | melanoma-an observation that has been validated by the success of RAF 1536 | and MEK inhibitors in clinical trials. However, clinical responses to 1537 | targeted anticancer therapeutics are frequently confounded by de novo or 1538 | acquired resistance. Identification of resistance mechanisms in a manner 1539 | that elucidates alternative 'druggable' targets may inform effective 1540 | long-term treatment strategies. Here we expressed ∼600 kinase and 1541 | kinase-related open reading frames (ORFs) in parallel to interrogate 1542 | resistance to a selective RAF kinase inhibitor. We identified MAP3K8 1543 | (the gene encoding COT/Tpl2) as a MAPK pathway agonist that drives 1544 | resistance to RAF inhibition in B-RAF(V600E) cell lines. COT activates 1545 | ERK primarily through MEK-dependent mechanisms that do not require RAF 1546 | signalling. Moreover, COT expression is associated with de novo 1547 | resistance in B-RAF(V600E) cultured cell lines and acquired resistance 1548 | in melanoma cells and tissue obtained from relapsing patients following 1549 | treatment with MEK or RAF inhibitors. We further identify combinatorial 1550 | MAPK pathway inhibition or targeting of COT kinase activity as possible 1551 | therapeutic strategies for reducing MAPK pathway activation in this 1552 | setting. Together, these results provide new insights into resistance 1553 | mechanisms involving the MAPK pathway and articulate an integrative 1554 | approach through which high-throughput functional screens may inform the 1555 | development of novel therapeutic strategies. 1556 | Author String: 1557 | Cory M Johannessen, Jesse S Boehm, So Young Kim, Sapana R Thomas, Leslie 1558 | Wardwell, Laura A Johnson, Caroline M Emery, Nicolas Stransky, 1559 | Alexandria P Cogdill, Jordi Barretina, Giordano Caponigro, Haley 1560 | Hieronymus, Ryan R Murray, Kourosh Salehi-Ashtiani, David E Hill, Marc 1561 | Vidal, Jean J Zhao, Xiaoping Yang, Ozan Alkan, Sungjoon Kim, Jennifer L 1562 | Harris, Christopher J Wilson, Vic E Myer, Peter M Finan, David E Root, 1563 | Thomas M Roberts, Todd Golub, Keith T Flaherty, Reinhard Dummer, Barbara 1564 | L Weber, William R Sellers, Robert Schlegel, Jennifer A Wargo, William C 1565 | Hahn, Levi A Garraway 1566 | Citation: Johannessen et al., 2010 1567 | Citation Id: 21107320 1568 | Id: 1492 1569 | Journal: Nature 1570 | Link: /sources/1492 1571 | Name: PubMed: Johannessen et al., 2010 1572 | Open Access: True 1573 | Pmc Id: PMC3058384 1574 | Publication Date: 2010-12-16 1575 | Retracted: False 1576 | Source Type: PUBMED 1577 | Source Url: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21107320 1578 | Title: 1579 | COT drives resistance to RAF inhibition through MAP kinase pathway 1580 | reactivation. 1581 | 1582 | ##### Therapies 1583 | Deprecated: False 1584 | Id: 22 1585 | Link: /therapies/22 1586 | Name: Dabrafenib 1587 | 1588 | #### Evidence Items 1589 | Description: 1590 | In a mouse in vivo study, the MEK protein inhibitor selumetinib 1591 | suppressed the growth of 1205Lu xenograft tumors, which contains the 1592 | BRAF-V600Emutation (0.91 +/- 0.10-fold volume increase vs. 9.47 +/- 1593 | 2.14-fold for non-treated mice).

The finding that 66% 1631 | of melanomas harbor the activating BRAF(V600E) mutation has raised 1632 | expectations for targeting the Ras/RAF/mitogen-activated protein 1633 | (MAP)/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) kinase (MEK)/ERK 1634 | pathway in melanoma. This study addresses the anti-melanoma activity of 1635 | the MEK inhibitor AZD6244 (ARRY-142886).We recently have shown that 1636 | growing melanoma cells as three-dimensional collagen-implanted spheroids 1637 | enhances resistance to the MEK inhibitor U0126. Here, we investigated 1638 | the anti-melanoma activity of AZD6244 in two-dimensional cell culture, 1639 | the three-dimensional spheroid model, and an in vivo model.In two- 1640 | dimensional cell culture, AZD6244 was cytostatic and reduced the growth 1641 | of melanoma cells in a concentration-dependent fashion through the 1642 | induction of G(1)-phase cell cycle arrest. In our three-dimensional 1643 | spheroid model, the effects of AZD6244 were largely cytostatic and 1644 | reversible, with drug washout leading to spheroid regrowth. Finally, 1645 | 1205Lu cells were grown as tumor xenografts in severe combined 1646 | immunodeficient mice. After tumor establishment, mice were dosed twice 1647 | daily with 0, 10, or 30 mg/kg AZD6244 p.o. AZD6244 treatment decreased 1648 | phospho-ERK in the tumors and significantly suppressed tumor growth. The 1649 | original tumors remained viable, suggesting that AZD6244 monotherapy was 1650 | largely cytostatic, and not proapoptotic in this model. Further studies 1651 | showed that co-administration of AZD6244 (30 mg/kg) with docetaxel (15 1652 | mg/kg) led to tumor regression, indicating the potential for MEK 1653 | inhibitor/chemotherapy drug combinations.Inhibition of MEK is cytostatic 1654 | as a monotherapy in melanoma, but cytotoxic when combined with 1655 | docetaxel. 1656 | Author String: 1657 | Nikolas K Haass, Katrin Sproesser, Thiennga K Nguyen, Rooha Contractor, 1658 | C Angelica Medina, Katherine L Nathanson, Meenhard Herlyn, Keiran S M 1659 | Smalley 1660 | Citation: Haass et al., 2008 1661 | Citation Id: 18172275 1662 | Id: 1489 1663 | Journal: Clin Cancer Res 1664 | Link: /sources/1489 1665 | Name: PubMed: Haass et al., 2008 1666 | Open Access: False 1667 | Publication Date: 2008-1-1 1668 | Retracted: False 1669 | Source Type: PUBMED 1670 | Source Url: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18172275 1671 | Title: 1672 | The mitogen-activated protein/extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1673 | kinase inhibitor AZD6244 (ARRY-142886) induces growth arrest in melanoma 1674 | cells and tumor regression when combined with docetaxel. 1675 | 1676 | ##### Therapies 1677 | Deprecated: False 1678 | Id: 63 1679 | Link: /therapies/63 1680 | Name: Selumetinib 1681 | 1682 | #### Evidence Items 1683 | Description: 1684 | In this Phase II pilot study (NCT00405587) of BRAF V600 inhibitor 1685 | vemurafenib in 21 metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) patients with BRAF 1686 | V600E, one patient had a durable 21 week partial response, and seven 1687 | patients had 8 week stable disease as best response.

Early clinical 1895 | experience with a novel class I RAF-selective inhibitor, PLX4032, 1896 | demonstrated an unprecedented 80% anti-tumour response rate among 1897 | patients with B-RAF(V600E)-positive melanomas, but acquired drug 1898 | resistance frequently develops after initial responses. Hypotheses for 1899 | mechanisms of acquired resistance to B-RAF inhibition include secondary 1900 | mutations in B-RAF(V600E), MAPK reactivation, and activation of 1901 | alternative survival pathways. Here we show that acquired resistance to 1902 | PLX4032 develops by mutually exclusive PDGFRβ (also known as PDGFRB) 1903 | upregulation or N-RAS (also known as NRAS) mutations but not through 1904 | secondary mutations in B-RAF(V600E). We used PLX4032-resistant sub-lines 1905 | artificially derived from B-RAF(V600E)-positive melanoma cell lines and 1906 | validated key findings in PLX4032-resistant tumours and tumour-matched, 1907 | short-term cultures from clinical trial patients. Induction of PDGFRβ 1908 | RNA, protein and tyrosine phosphorylation emerged as a dominant feature 1909 | of acquired PLX4032 resistance in a subset of melanoma sub-lines, 1910 | patient-derived biopsies and short-term cultures. PDGFRβ-upregulated 1911 | tumour cells have low activated RAS levels and, when treated with 1912 | PLX4032, do not reactivate the MAPK pathway significantly. In another 1913 | subset, high levels of activated N-RAS resulting from mutations lead to 1914 | significant MAPK pathway reactivation upon PLX4032 treatment. Knockdown 1915 | of PDGFRβ or N-RAS reduced growth of the respective PLX4032-resistant 1916 | subsets.

The B-type Raf proto-oncogene 1987 | (BRAF) plays an important role in the mitogen-activated protein kinase 1988 | (MAPK) signaling cascade during CRC. The presence of BRAFV600E mutation 1989 | can determine the response of a tumor to chemotherapy. However, the 1990 | association between the BRAFV600E mutation and the clinicopathological 1991 | features of CRC remains controversial. We performed a systematic review 1992 | and meta-analysis to estimate the effect of BRAFV600E mutation on the 1993 | clinicopathological characteristics of CRC.We identified studies that 1994 | examined the effect of BRAFV600E mutation on CRC within the PubMed, ISI 1995 | Science Citation Index, and Embase databases.

KRAS mutations account for 2759 | approximately 30% to 40% patients who are not responsive. The serine- 2760 | threonine kinase BRAF is the principal effector of KRAS. We hypothesized 2761 | that, in KRAS wild-type patients, BRAF mutations could have a 2762 | predictive/prognostic value. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively 2763 | analyzed objective tumor responses, time to progression, overall 2764 | survival (OS), and the mutational status of KRAS and BRAF in 113 tumors 2765 | from cetuximab- or panitumumab-treated metastatic CRC patients. The 2766 | effect of the BRAF V600E mutation on cetuximab or panitumumab response 2767 | was also assessed using cellular models of CRC. Results KRAS mutations 2768 | were present in 30% of the patients and were associated with resistance 2769 | to cetuximab or panitumumab (P = .011). The BRAF V600E mutation was 2770 | detected in 11 of 79 patients who had wild-type KRAS. None of the BRAF- 2771 | mutated patients responded to treatment, whereas none of the responders 2772 | carried BRAF mutations (P = .029). BRAF-mutated patients had 2773 | significantly shorter progression-free survival (P = .011) and OS (P < 2774 | .0001) than wild-type patients. In CRC cells, the introduction of BRAF 2775 | V600E allele impaired the therapeutic effect of cetuximab or 2776 | panitumumab.

Pre-clinical studies 3032 | have demonstrated that the B-RAF(V600E) mutation predicts a dependency 3033 | on the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signalling cascade in 3034 | melanoma-an observation that has been validated by the success of RAF 3035 | and MEK inhibitors in clinical trials. However, clinical responses to 3036 | targeted anticancer therapeutics are frequently confounded by de novo or 3037 | acquired resistance. Identification of resistance mechanisms in a manner 3038 | that elucidates alternative 'druggable' targets may inform effective 3039 | long-term treatment strategies. Here we expressed ∼600 kinase and 3040 | kinase-related open reading frames (ORFs) in parallel to interrogate 3041 | resistance to a selective RAF kinase inhibitor. We identified MAP3K8 3042 | (the gene encoding COT/Tpl2) as a MAPK pathway agonist that drives 3043 | resistance to RAF inhibition in B-RAF(V600E) cell lines. COT activates 3044 | ERK primarily through MEK-dependent mechanisms that do not require RAF 3045 | signalling. Moreover, COT expression is associated with de novo 3046 | resistance in B-RAF(V600E) cultured cell lines and acquired resistance 3047 | in melanoma cells and tissue obtained from relapsing patients following 3048 | treatment with MEK or RAF inhibitors. We further identify combinatorial 3049 | MAPK pathway inhibition or targeting of COT kinase activity as possible 3050 | therapeutic strategies for reducing MAPK pathway activation in this 3051 | setting. Together, these results provide new insights into resistance 3052 | mechanisms involving the MAPK pathway and articulate an integrative 3053 | approach through which high-throughput functional screens may inform the 3054 | development of novel therapeutic strategies. 3055 | Author String: 3056 | Cory M Johannessen, Jesse S Boehm, So Young Kim, Sapana R Thomas, Leslie 3057 | Wardwell, Laura A Johnson, Caroline M Emery, Nicolas Stransky, 3058 | Alexandria P Cogdill, Jordi Barretina, Giordano Caponigro, Haley 3059 | Hieronymus, Ryan R Murray, Kourosh Salehi-Ashtiani, David E Hill, Marc 3060 | Vidal, Jean J Zhao, Xiaoping Yang, Ozan Alkan, Sungjoon Kim, Jennifer L 3061 | Harris, Christopher J Wilson, Vic E Myer, Peter M Finan, David E Root, 3062 | Thomas M Roberts, Todd Golub, Keith T Flaherty, Reinhard Dummer, Barbara 3063 | L Weber, William R Sellers, Robert Schlegel, Jennifer A Wargo, William C 3064 | Hahn, Levi A Garraway 3065 | Citation: Johannessen et al., 2010 3066 | Citation Id: 21107320 3067 | Id: 1492 3068 | Journal: Nature 3069 | Link: /sources/1492 3070 | Name: PubMed: Johannessen et al., 2010 3071 | Open Access: True 3072 | Pmc Id: PMC3058384 3073 | Publication Date: 2010-12-16 3074 | Retracted: False 3075 | Source Type: PUBMED 3076 | Source Url: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21107320 3077 | Title: 3078 | COT drives resistance to RAF inhibition through MAP kinase pathway 3079 | reactivation. 3080 | 3081 | ##### Therapies 3082 | Deprecated: False 3083 | Id: 4 3084 | Link: /therapies/4 3085 | Name: Vemurafenib 3086 | 3087 | #### Evidence Items 3088 | Description: 3089 | In an in vitro study, cell lines (including YUHUY and YUSAC2) expressing 3090 | BRAF V600E were associated with increased sensitivity to vemurafenib 3091 | (PLX4032) treatment, as compared to cell lines expressing wild-type 3092 | BRAF.

This approach requires 3318 | substantial medicinal chemistry and can be confounded by drug toxicity 3319 | and off-target activities of the test molecule. As a better alternative, 3320 | we have developed inducible short-hairpin RNA xenograft models to 3321 | examine the in vivo efficacy of inhibiting oncogenic BRAF. Our results 3322 | show that tumor regression resulting from BRAF suppression is inducible, 3323 | reversible, and tightly regulated in these models. Analysis of 3324 | regressing tumors showed the primary mechanism of action for BRAF to be 3325 | increased tumor cell proliferation and survival. In a metastatic 3326 | melanoma model, conditional BRAF suppression slowed systemic tumor 3327 | growth as determined by in vivo bioluminescence imaging.

Furthermore, inhibitors targeting "active" protein kinases have 3483 | demonstrated significant utility in the therapeutic repertoire against 3484 | cancer. Therefore, we pursued the development of specific kinase 3485 | inhibitors targeting B-Raf, and the V600E allele in particular. By using 3486 | a structure-guided discovery approach, a potent and selective inhibitor 3487 | of active B-Raf has been discovered. PLX4720, a 7-azaindole derivative 3488 | that inhibits B-Raf(V600E) with an IC(50) of 13 nM, defines a class of 3489 | kinase inhibitor with marked selectivity in both biochemical and 3490 | cellular assays. PLX4720 preferentially inhibits the active B-Raf(V600E) 3491 | kinase compared with a broad spectrum of other kinases, and potent 3492 | cytotoxic effects are also exclusive to cells bearing the V600E allele. 3493 | Consistent with the high degree of selectivity, ERK phosphorylation is 3494 | potently inhibited by PLX4720 in B-Raf(V600E)-bearing tumor cell lines 3495 | but not in cells lacking oncogenic B-Raf. In melanoma models, PLX4720 3496 | induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis exclusively in 3497 | B-Raf(V600E)-positive cells. In B-Raf(V600E)-dependent tumor xenograft 3498 | models, orally dosed PLX4720 causes significant tumor growth delays, 3499 | including tumor regressions, without evidence of toxicity. The work 3500 | described here represents the entire discovery process, from initial 3501 | identification through structural and biological studies in animal 3502 | models to a promising therapeutic for testing in cancer patients bearing 3503 | B-Raf(V600E)-driven tumors. 3504 | Author String: 3505 | James Tsai, John T Lee, Weiru Wang, Jiazhong Zhang, Hanna Cho, Shumeye 3506 | Mamo, Ryan Bremer, Sam Gillette, Jun Kong, Nikolas K Haass, Katrin 3507 | Sproesser, Ling Li, Keiran S M Smalley, Daniel Fong, Yong-Liang Zhu, 3508 | Adhirai Marimuthu, Hoa Nguyen, Billy Lam, Jennifer Liu, Ivana Cheung, 3509 | Julie Rice, Yoshihisa Suzuki, Catherine Luu, Calvin Settachatgul, Rafe 3510 | Shellooe, John Cantwell, Sung-Hou Kim, Joseph Schlessinger, Kam Y J 3511 | Zhang, Brian L West, Ben Powell, Gaston Habets, Chao Zhang, Prabha N 3512 | Ibrahim, Peter Hirth, Dean R Artis, Meenhard Herlyn, Gideon Bollag 3513 | Citation: Tsai et al., 2008 3514 | Citation Id: 18287029 3515 | Id: 1952 3516 | Journal: Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 3517 | Link: /sources/1952 3518 | Name: PubMed: Tsai et al., 2008 3519 | Open Access: True 3520 | Pmc Id: PMC2268581 3521 | Publication Date: 2008-2-26 3522 | Retracted: False 3523 | Source Type: PUBMED 3524 | Source Url: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18287029 3525 | Title: 3526 | Discovery of a selective inhibitor of oncogenic B-Raf kinase with potent 3527 | antimelanoma activity. 3528 | 3529 | ##### Therapies 3530 | Deprecated: False 3531 | Id: 4 3532 | Link: /therapies/4 3533 | Name: Vemurafenib 3534 | 3535 | #### Evidence Items 3536 | Description: 3537 | In an in vitro study, a MBA72 cell line expressing BRAF V600E 3538 | demonstrated improved sensitivity to vemurafenib treatment, compared to 3539 | LND-1 cells expression BRAF wild-type.

Because kinase- 4331 | activating mutations in the BRAF proto-oncogene commonly occur in 4332 | advanced PTC, and inhibition of BRAF(V600E) has shown promising clinical 4333 | activity in melanoma, BRAF inhibitor therapy may be an effective 4334 | strategy to treat metastatic PTC.The dose escalation portion of a first- 4335 | in-human, phase I study of vemurafenib, a selective RAF inhibitor, 4336 | included three patients with metastatic PTC harboring the BRAF(V600E) 4337 | mutation.

Most 4421 | papillary thyroid carcinomas contain BRAF mutations or RET/PTC 4422 | rearrangements, thus providing targets for biologic therapy. Our 4423 | previous studies had suggested papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTCs) with 4424 | a BRAF mutation and the RET/PTC1 rearrangement have different 4425 | sensitivities to MEK1/2 inhibitors, suggesting different signaling 4426 | transduction pathways were involved.Src signaling transduction pathway 4427 | in PTC cells was examined using Src inhibitors (PP2, SU6656, or 4428 | dasatinib) and si-Src RNA in vitro by Western blot analysis and 4429 | proliferation analysis. An orthotopic xenograft mouse model was used for 4430 | the in vivo studies using dasatinib.In PTC cells, Src inhibitors 4431 | suppressed p-Src and p-FAK and inhibited cell growth. In addition, 4432 | significant suppression and extension of the p-ERK1/2 dephosphorylation 4433 | were detected in RET/PTC1-rearranged cells in combination with an MEK 4434 | inhibitor (CI-1040). The Src family kinase/ABL inhibitor, dasatinib, 4435 | significantly decreased tumor volume in mice inoculated with PTC cells 4436 | carrying the RET/PTC1 rearrangement. In BRAF-mutated PTC cells, Src 4437 | inhibitors effectively suppressed p-Src expression and dasatinib 4438 | significantly decreased tumor volume with twice daily treatment.Src 4439 | inhibitors effectively inhibited the Src signaling transduction pathway 4440 | in PTC cells in vitro and dasatinib suppressed tumor growth in vivo. 4441 | These results suggested that Src signaling transduction pathway plays an 4442 | important role in regulating growth in PTC cells. Combination of Src and 4443 | MEK1/2 inhibitors extended the dephosphorylation of extracellular 4444 | signal-regulated kinase (ERK)1/2 in PTCs carrying the RET/PTC1 4445 | rearrangement suggesting that combination therapy with complementary 4446 | inhibitors of other signaling transduction pathways may be needed to 4447 | effectively suppress growth and induce apoptosis in these cells. 4448 | Author String: 4449 | Ying C Henderson, Rafael Toro-Serra, Yunyun Chen, Junsun Ryu, Mitchell J 4450 | Frederick, Ge Zhou, Gary E Gallick, Stephen Y Lai, Gary L Clayman 4451 | Citation: Henderson et al., 2014 4452 | Citation Id: 23729178 4453 | Id: 1972 4454 | Journal: Head Neck 4455 | Link: /sources/1972 4456 | Name: PubMed: Henderson et al., 2014 4457 | Open Access: True 4458 | Pmc Id: PMC4401074 4459 | Publication Date: 2014-3 4460 | Retracted: False 4461 | Source Type: PUBMED 4462 | Source Url: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23729178 4463 | Title: Src inhibitors in suppression of papillary thyroid carcinoma growth. 4464 | 4465 | ##### Therapies 4466 | Deprecated: False 4467 | Id: 20 4468 | Link: /therapies/20 4469 | Name: Dasatinib 4470 | 4471 | #### Evidence Items 4472 | Description: 4473 | In an in vitro study, WiDr, HT-29 and RKO cell lines expressing BRAF 4474 | V600E mutation was associated with sensitivity to regorafenib treatment, 4475 | as compared to Caco-2 and KM12SM cells expressing wild-type BRAF. 4476 | Resistance was determined by assessing cell proliferation and migration. 4477 | Evidence Direction: SUPPORTS 4478 | Evidence Level: D 4479 | Evidence Type: PREDICTIVE 4480 | Flagged: False 4481 | Id: 3776 4482 | Name: EID3776 4483 | Significance: SENSITIVITYRESPONSE 4484 | Variant Origin: SOMATIC 4485 | 4486 | ##### Disease 4487 | Disease Url: https://www.disease-ontology.org/?id=DOID:219 4488 | Display Name: Colon Cancer 4489 | Doid: 219 4490 | Id: 119 4491 | Link: /diseases/119 4492 | Name: Colon Cancer 4493 | 4494 | ##### My Disease Info 4495 | Do Def: A colorectal cancer that is located_in the colon. 4496 | Icd10: C18 4497 | Mesh: D003110 4498 | Mondo Id: MONDO:0021063 4499 | Ncit: C9242 4500 | 4501 | ##### Molecular Profile 4502 | Id: 12 4503 | 4504 | ##### Source 4505 | Abstract: 4506 | Interaction between tumor cells and stromal cells plays an important 4507 | role in the growth and metastasis of colon cancer.

Therefore, we examined whether regorafenib impaired 4518 | the tumor-promoting effect of CAFs/MSCs. KM12SM human colon cancer cells 4519 | alone or KM12SM cells with MSCs were transplanted into the cecal wall of 4520 | nude mice.

This tumor-inhibitory effect of 4525 | regorafenib was more obvious in tumors developed by co-implanting KM12SM 4526 | cells with MSCs. Our data suggested that targeting of the tumor 4527 | microenvironment with regorafenib affected tumor cell-MSC interaction, 4528 | which in turn inhibited the growth and metastasis of colon cancer. 4529 | Author String: 4530 | Hidehiko Takigawa, Yasuhiko Kitadai, Kei Shinagawa, Ryo Yuge, Yukihito 4531 | Higashi, Shinji Tanaka, Wataru Yasui, Kazuaki Chayama 4532 | Citation: Takigawa et al., 2016 4533 | Citation Id: 26865419 4534 | Id: 1973 4535 | Journal: Cancer Sci 4536 | Link: /sources/1973 4537 | Name: PubMed: Takigawa et al., 2016 4538 | Open Access: True 4539 | Pmc Id: PMC5001714 4540 | Publication Date: 2016-5 4541 | Retracted: False 4542 | Source Type: PUBMED 4543 | Source Url: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26865419 4544 | Title: 4545 | Multikinase inhibitor regorafenib inhibits the growth and metastasis of 4546 | colon cancer with abundant stroma. 4547 | 4548 | ##### Therapies 4549 | Deprecated: False 4550 | Id: 27 4551 | Link: /therapies/27 4552 | Name: Regorafenib 4553 | 4554 | #### Evidence Items 4555 | Description: 4556 | In a retrospective study of 35 lung adenocarcinoma patients (with 4557 | chemotherapy previously administered in 86% of patients), patients 4558 | harboring a BRAF V600E mutation and treated with vemurafenib monotherapy 4559 | (n=29) were associated with an improved response rate; an overall 4560 | survival (with 1st-line therapy) of 25.63 months, a 54% overall response 4561 | rate and a 95% disease control rate were reported. 4562 | Evidence Direction: SUPPORTS 4563 | Evidence Level: B 4564 | Evidence Type: PREDICTIVE 4565 | Flagged: False 4566 | Id: 3782 4567 | Name: EID3782 4568 | Significance: SENSITIVITYRESPONSE 4569 | Variant Origin: SOMATIC 4570 | 4571 | ##### Disease 4572 | Disease Url: https://www.disease-ontology.org/?id=DOID:3910 4573 | Display Name: Lung Adenocarcinoma 4574 | Doid: 3910 4575 | Id: 30 4576 | Link: /diseases/30 4577 | Name: Lung Adenocarcinoma 4578 | 4579 | ##### My Disease Info 4580 | Do Def: 4581 | A lung non-small cell carcinoma that derives_from epithelial cells of 4582 | glandular origin. 4583 | Mesh: D000077192 4584 | Mondo Id: MONDO:0005061 4585 | Ncit: C27745, C3512 4586 | Disease Aliases: 4587 | - Bronchogenic Lung Adenocarcinoma 4588 | - Nonsmall Cell Adenocarcinoma 4589 | 4590 | ##### Molecular Profile 4591 | Id: 12 4592 | 4593 | ##### Source 4594 | Abstract: 4595 | Approximately 2% of lung adenocarcinomas have BRAF (v-Raf murine sarcoma 4596 | viral oncogene homolog B) mutations, including V600E and other types. 4597 | Vemurafenib, dabrafenib, and sorafenib as BRAF inhibitors are currently 4598 | tested in clinical trials, but access for patients is limited.

Unlike its high treatment response to selective BRAF 4844 | inhibitor (PLX4032) in metastatic melanoma, the treatment response in 4845 | thyroid cancer is reported to be low. The purpose of this study is to 4846 | investigate the resistance mechanism responsible for this low treatment 4847 | response to BRAF inhibitor in order to maximize the effect of targeted 4848 | therapy. We examined the expression of feedback regulation mechanisms 4849 | and alterations in the upper signal transduction pathway in thyroid 4850 | cancer cell lines harboring BRAF mutation. Also, we investigated the 4851 | effect of dual inhibition from combinatorial therapy. Two thyroid cancer 4852 | cell lines, 8505C (anaplastic thyroid cancer) and BCPAP (papillary 4853 | thyroid cancer) were selected and treated with PLX4032 and its drug 4854 | sensitivity were examined and compared. Further investigation on the 4855 | changes in signals responsible for the different treatment response to 4856 | PLX4032 was carried out and the same experiment was performed on 4857 | orthotopic xenograft mouse models. Unlike BCPAP cells, 8505C cells 4858 | presented drug resistance to PLX4032 treatment and this was mainly due 4859 | to increased expression of c-Met. Effective inhibitions of c-Met, p-AKT, 4860 | and p-ERK were achieved after dual treatment with BRAF inhibitor 4861 | (PLX4032) and c-Met inhibitor (PHA665752). Similar results were 4862 | confirmed by in vivo study with orthotopic xenograft mouse model. c-Met- 4863 | mediated reactivation of the PI3K/AKT pathway and MAPK pathway 4864 | contributes to the relative insensitivity of BRAF (V600E) mutant 4865 | anaplastic thyroid cancer cells to PLX4032.

The median 5311 | survival for metastatic ICC is less than 1 year with standard 5312 | chemotherapy. ICC is associated with distinct oncogenic drivers 5313 | including IDH (isocitrate dehydrogenase), HER-2 (human epidermal growth 5314 | factor 2), and BRAF (v-Raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog B), 5315 | which may benefit from matching targeted therapies. Hereby we report 2 5316 | cases of BRAF V600E refractory ICC treated with dual BRAF and MEK 5317 | inhibitors (dabrafenib and trametinib) with excellent clinical and 5318 | radiological response to therapy and with protracted duration of disease 5319 | control.

Preclinical studies suggest that 5585 | the lack of efficacy in BRAFV600E colorectal cancer is due to adaptive 5586 | feedback reactivation of MAPK signaling, often mediated by EGFR. This 5587 | clinical trial evaluated BRAF and EGFR inhibition with dabrafenib (D) + 5588 | panitumumab (P) ± MEK inhibition with trametinib (T) to achieve greater 5589 | MAPK suppression and improved efficacy in 142 patients with BRAFV600E 5590 | colorectal cancer. Confirmed response rates for D+P, D+T+P, and T+P were 5591 | 10%, 21%, and 0%, respectively. Pharmacodynamic analysis of paired 5592 | pretreatment and on-treatment biopsies found that efficacy of D+T+P 5593 | correlated with increased MAPK suppression. Serial cell-free DNA 5594 | analysis revealed additional correlates of response and emergence of 5595 | KRAS and NRAS mutations on disease progression. Thus, targeting adaptive 5596 | feedback pathways in BRAFV600E colorectal cancer can improve efficacy, 5597 | but MAPK reactivation remains an important primary and acquired 5598 | resistance mechanism.Significance: This trial demonstrates that combined 5599 | BRAF + EGFR + MEK inhibition is tolerable, with promising activity in 5600 | patients with BRAFV600E colorectal cancer. Our findings highlight the 5601 | MAPK pathway as a critical target in BRAFV600E colorectal cancer and the 5602 | need to optimize strategies inhibiting this pathway to overcome both 5603 | primary and acquired resistance.

Current guidelines do not recommend the use 5868 | of BRAF(V600E) mutational analysis on cytologic specimens from fine 5869 | needle aspiration due to several reasons. Recently, immunohistochemistry 5870 | using VE1, a mouse anti-human BRAF(V600E) antibody, has been reported as 5871 | a highly reliable technique in detecting BRAF-mutated thyroid and 5872 | nonthyroid cancers. The aim of this study was to test the reliability of 5873 | VE1 immunohistochemistry on microhistologic samples from core needle 5874 | biopsy (CNB) in identifying BRAF-mutated PTC. A series of 30 nodules 5875 | (size ranging from 7 to 22 mm) from 30 patients who underwent surgery 5876 | following CNB were included in the study. All these lesions had had 5877 | inconclusive cytology. In all cases, both VE1 and BRAF(V600E) genotypes 5878 | were evaluated. After surgery, final histology demonstrated 21 cancers 5879 | and 9 benign lesions. CNB correctly diagnosed 20/20 PTC and 5/5 5880 | adenomatous nodules. One follicular thyroid cancer and 4 benign lesions 5881 | were assessed at CNB as uncertain follicular neoplasm. VE1 5882 | immunohistochemistry revealed 8 mutated PTC and 22 negative cases. A 5883 | 100% agreement was found when positive and negative VE1 results were 5884 | compared with BRAF mutational status. These data are the first 5885 | demonstration that VE1 immunohistochemistry performed on thyroid CNB 5886 | samples perfectly matches with genetic analysis of BRAF status. Thus, 5887 | VE1 antibody can be used on thyroid microhistologic specimens to detect 5888 | BRAF(V600E)-mutated PTC before surgery. 5889 | Author String: 5890 | A Crescenzi, L Guidobaldi, N Nasrollah, S Taccogna, D D Cicciarella 5891 | Modica, L Turrini, G Nigri, F Romanelli, S Valabrega, L Giovanella, A 5892 | Onetti Muda, P Trimboli 5893 | Citation: Crescenzi et al., 2014 5894 | Citation Id: 24570209 5895 | Id: 94 5896 | Journal: Horm Metab Res 5897 | Link: /sources/94 5898 | Name: PubMed: Crescenzi et al., 2014 5899 | Open Access: False 5900 | Publication Date: 2014-5 5901 | Retracted: False 5902 | Source Type: PUBMED 5903 | Source Url: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24570209 5904 | Title: 5905 | Immunohistochemistry for BRAF(V600E) antibody VE1 performed in core 5906 | needle biopsy samples identifies mutated papillary thyroid cancers. 5907 | 5908 | #### Evidence Items 5909 | Description: 5910 | In this Phase III trial (NCT01584648 COMBI-d), previously untreated 5911 | patients with unresectable stage IIIC or IV melanoma with BRAF V600E 5912 | (359 patients) or V600K (61 patients) received dabrafenib and trametinib 5913 | or dabrafenib alone with primary endpoint of progression free survival 5914 | and secondary endpoints including disease response.

Vemurafenib is an oral, selective ATP-competitive inhibitor of 6062 | BRAFV600E kinase. The goal of this multi-center study conducted through 6063 | the Pacific Pediatric Neuro-Oncology Consortium (PNOC) was to determine 6064 | the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) 6065 | in children < 18 years with recurrent or progressive BRAFV600E mutant 6066 | brain tumors. Results: Nineteen eligible patients were enrolled. Eleven 6067 | patients had received three or more prior therapies. Data reported are 6068 | from the start of treatment for the first patient (April 30 2014) 6069 | through August 31 2019. The RP2D was defined as 550 mg/m2 twice daily 6070 | after DLT criteria adjustment for rash. Related grade ≥ 3 adverse events 6071 | included secondary keratoacanthoma (n = 1); rash (n =16); and fever (n = 6072 | 5). Subjects received a median of 23 cycles (range 3-63). Four patients 6073 | remain on treatment. Centrally reviewed best radiographic responses 6074 | included 1 complete response, 5 partial responses, and 13 stable 6075 | disease. The steady-state area under the curve (AUC0-∞median) was 604 6076 | mg*h/L (range 329-1052). Methods: Vemurafenib was given starting at 550 6077 | mg/m2, twice daily which corresponds to the adult RP2D. Adverse events 6078 | were graded using the NIH Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events 6079 | (CTCAE) version 4.0.

In a multivariate analysis containing stage, tumor site, 6169 | nodal status, sex, age, grade, and microsatellite instability (MSI) 6170 | status, KRAS mutation was associated with grade (P = .0016), while BRAF 6171 | mutation was significantly associated with female sex (P = .017), and 6172 | highly significantly associated with right-sided tumors, older age, high 6173 | grade, and MSI-high tumors (all P < 10(-4)).

Methods: Patients (pts) with BRAF 6254 | mutated radioiodine refractory PTC who had evidence of disease 6255 | progression within 13 months prior were randomized to Arm A (dabrafenib 6256 | 150 mg PO BID) or Arm B (dabrafenib 150 mg PO BID + trametinib 2 mg PO 6257 | qd).

With assumed true ORR of 15% vs 35%; and 90% power to 6261 | identify the correct regimen as most promising, 26 pts were to be 6262 | accrued in each Arm. Results: In this randomized phase 2 trial, 53 pts 6263 | (median age 63 years, 38 females) were enrolled; 25% of pts had 1-3 6264 | prior therapy with multi-kinase inhibitors.

Together, our findings suggest 6571 | that the administration of vemurafenib in combination with standard-of- 6572 | care or novel targeted therapies may lead to enhanced and sustained 6573 | clinical antitumor efficacy in CRCs harboring the BRAF(V600E) mutation. 6574 | Author String: 6575 | Hong Yang, Brian Higgins, Kenneth Kolinsky, Kathryn Packman, William D 6576 | Bradley, Richard J Lee, Kathleen Schostack, Mary Ellen Simcox, Scott 6577 | Kopetz, David Heimbrook, Brian Lestini, Gideon Bollag, Fei Su 6578 | Citation: Yang et al., 2012 6579 | Citation Id: 22180495 6580 | Id: 108 6581 | Journal: Cancer Res 6582 | Link: /sources/108 6583 | Name: PubMed: Yang et al., 2012 6584 | Open Access: False 6585 | Publication Date: 2012-2-1 6586 | Retracted: False 6587 | Source Type: PUBMED 6588 | Source Url: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22180495 6589 | Title: 6590 | Antitumor activity of BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib in preclinical models 6591 | of BRAF-mutant colorectal cancer. 6592 | 6593 | ##### Therapies 6594 | Deprecated: False 6595 | Id: 4 6596 | Link: /therapies/4 6597 | Name: Vemurafenib 6598 | 6599 | ##### Therapies 6600 | Deprecated: False 6601 | Id: 15 6602 | Link: /therapies/15 6603 | Name: Erlotinib 6604 | 6605 | #### Evidence Items 6606 | Description: 6607 | This study examined outcomes of 240 rectum cancer patients treated with 6608 | total mesorectal excision therapy.

In this study, we aim to determine the 6649 | mutation frequencies of PIK3CA, KRAS, and BRAF and to investigate 6650 | whether a mutation may be used as a prognostic parameter in rectal 6651 | cancer patients.We evaluated DNA mutations in PIK3CA, KRAS, and BRAF in 6652 | 240 stage I to III rectal tumors obtained from nonirradiated patients 6653 | from the Dutch Total Mesorectal Excision trial.PIK3CA, KRAS, and BRAF 6654 | mutations were identified in 19 (7.9%), 81 (33.9%), and 5 (2.1%) rectal 6655 | cancers. Patients with PIK3CA mutations developed more local recurrences 6656 | (5-year risks, 27.8% versus 9.4%; P = 0.006) and tended to develop these 6657 | recurrences more rapidly after surgery (median local recurrence-free 6658 | interval since surgery: 7.9 versus 19.6 months; P = 0.07) than patients 6659 | without PIK3CA mutations. In multivariate analysis, PIK3CA mutations 6660 | remained as an independent predictor for the development of local 6661 | recurrences (hazard ratio, 3.4; 95% confidence interval, 1.2-9.2; P = 6662 | 0.017), next to tumor-node-metastasis stage.PIK3CA mutations can be used 6663 | as a biomarker in identifying rectal cancer patients with an increased 6664 | risk for local recurrences. Currently, our findings suggest that 6665 | prospective evaluation of PIK3CA mutation status could reduce 6666 | overtreatment by preoperative radiotherapy for the low-risk patients who 6667 | might otherwise only experience the side effects. 6668 | Author String: 6669 | Youji He, Laura J Van't Veer, Izabela Mikolajewska-Hanclich, Marie- 6670 | Louise F van Velthuysen, Eliane C M Zeestraten, Iris D Nagtegaal, 6671 | Cornelis J H van de Velde, Corrie A M Marijnen 6672 | Citation: He et al., 2009 6673 | Citation Id: 19903786 6674 | Id: 1475 6675 | Journal: Clin Cancer Res 6676 | Link: /sources/1475 6677 | Name: PubMed: He et al., 2009 6678 | Open Access: False 6679 | Publication Date: 2009-11-15 6680 | Retracted: False 6681 | Source Type: PUBMED 6682 | Source Url: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19903786 6683 | Title: PIK3CA mutations predict local recurrences in rectal cancer patients. 6684 | 6685 | #### Evidence Items 6686 | Description: 6687 | In a study of metastatic colorectal cancer patients treated with 6688 | capecitabine, oxaliplatin, bevacizumab, and cetuximab those with BRAF 6689 | V600E mutations had reduced progression-free survival (6.6mo vs. 10.4mo, 6690 | P=0.01) and reduced overall survival (15.2mo vs. 21.5mo, P=0.001) 6691 | compared to those with wildtype BRAF. 6692 | Evidence Direction: SUPPORTS 6693 | Evidence Level: B 6694 | Evidence Rating: 3 6695 | Evidence Type: PREDICTIVE 6696 | Flagged: False 6697 | Id: 8646 6698 | Name: EID8646 6699 | Significance: RESISTANCE 6700 | Variant Origin: SOMATIC 6701 | 6702 | ##### Disease 6703 | Disease Url: https://www.disease-ontology.org/?id=DOID:9256 6704 | Display Name: Colorectal Cancer 6705 | Doid: 9256 6706 | Id: 11 6707 | Link: /diseases/11 6708 | Name: Colorectal Cancer 6709 | 6710 | ##### My Disease Info 6711 | Do Def: 6712 | An intestinal cancer that effects the long, tube-like organ that is 6713 | connected to the small intestine at one end and the anus at the other. 6714 | Icd10: C18.9 6715 | Mondo Id: MONDO:0005575 6716 | Ncit: C4978 6717 | 6718 | ##### Molecular Profile 6719 | Id: 12 6720 | 6721 | ##### Source 6722 | Author String: Jolien Tol, Iris D Nagtegaal, Cornelis J A Punt 6723 | Citation: Tol et al., 2009 6724 | Citation Id: 19571295 6725 | Id: 1481 6726 | Journal: N Engl J Med 6727 | Link: /sources/1481 6728 | Name: PubMed: Tol et al., 2009 6729 | Open Access: False 6730 | Publication Date: 2009-7-2 6731 | Retracted: False 6732 | Source Type: PUBMED 6733 | Source Url: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19571295 6734 | Title: BRAF mutation in metastatic colorectal cancer. 6735 | 6736 | ##### Therapies 6737 | Deprecated: False 6738 | Id: 16 6739 | Link: /therapies/16 6740 | Name: Cetuximab 6741 | 6742 | ##### Therapies 6743 | Deprecated: False 6744 | Id: 33 6745 | Link: /therapies/33 6746 | Name: Bevacizumab 6747 | 6748 | ##### Therapies 6749 | Deprecated: False 6750 | Id: 32 6751 | Link: /therapies/32 6752 | Name: Capecitabine 6753 | 6754 | ##### Therapies 6755 | Deprecated: False 6756 | Id: 237 6757 | Link: /therapies/237 6758 | Name: Oxaliplatin 6759 | 6760 | #### Evidence Items 6761 | Description: 6762 | Multicenter, phase 1, dose-escalation trial of PLX4032 (Vemurafenib). 6763 | Treatment of metastatic melanoma with PLX4032 in patients with tumors 6764 | that carry the V600E BRAF mutation resulted in complete or partial tumor 6765 | regression in the majority of patients (N=37/48).

PLGGs have much better prognosis than 7131 | the adult counterparts, but a significant proportion of PLGGs suffers 7132 | from tumor progression and recurrence. It has been shown that pediatric 7133 | and adult low-grade gliomas are molecularly distinct. Yet the clinical 7134 | significance of some of newer biomarkers discovered by genomic studies 7135 | has not been fully investigated. In this study, we evaluated in a large 7136 | cohort of 289 PLGGs a list of biomarkers and examined their clinical 7137 | relevance. TERT promoter (TERTp), H3F3A and BRAF V600E mutations were 7138 | detected by direct sequencing. ATRX nuclear loss was examined by 7139 | immunohistochemistry. CDKN2A deletion, KIAA1549-BRAF fusion, and MYB 7140 | amplification were determined by fluorescence in situ hybridization 7141 | (FISH). TERTp, H3F3A, and BRAF V600E mutations were identified in 2.5, 7142 | 6.4, and 7.4% of PLGGs, respectively. ATRX loss was found in 4.9% of 7143 | PLGGs. CDKN2A deletion, KIAA1549-BRAF fusion and MYB amplification were 7144 | detected in 8.8, 32.0 and 10.6% of PLGGs, respectively. Survival 7145 | analysis revealed that TERTp mutation, H3F3A mutation, and ATRX loss 7146 | were significantly associated with poor PFS (p < 0.0001, p < 0.0001, and 7147 | p = 0.0002) and OS (p < 0.0001, p < 0.0001, and p < 0.0001). BRAF V600E 7148 | was associated with shorter PFS (p = 0.011) and OS (p = 0.032) in a 7149 | subset of PLGGs. KIAA1549-BRAF fusion was a good prognostic marker for 7150 | longer PFS (p = 0.0017) and OS (p = 0.0029). MYB amplification was also 7151 | a favorable marker for a longer PFS (p = 0.040). Importantly, we showed 7152 | that these molecular biomarkers can be used to stratify PLGGs into low- 7153 | (KIAA1549-BRAF fusion or MYB amplification), intermediate-I (BRAF V600E 7154 | and/or CDKN2A deletion), intermediate-II (no biomarker), and high-risk 7155 | (TERTp or H3F3A mutation or ATRX loss) groups with distinct PFS (p < 7156 | 0.0001) and OS (p < 0.0001).

Panitumumab is a fully humanized IgG2 anti-EGFR 7896 | antibody that has a different binding site and also has a distinct 7897 | toxicity profile, causing fewer infusion reactions than cetuximab. Case 7898 | one was a 70-year-old female presenting with progressive metastatic 7899 | colorectal cancer after undergoing prior treatment with FOLFOX in 2016 7900 | and 2020 (2020 in combination with bevacizumab). Molecular profiling of 7901 | the patient’s tumour revealed a BRAF V600E mutation (KRAS-, NRAS wild- 7902 | type, MSS). Cetuximab and encorafenib were applied for three cycles 7903 | without any grade III/IV toxicities. However, the fourth infusion of 7904 | cetuximab had to be aborted due to a strong infusion reaction, which had 7905 | to be treated with dimenhydrinate and prednisone. The cetuximab was 7906 | swapped for panitumumab, and except for Grade I-II skin toxicity, no 7907 | panitumumab-related side effects occurred.

Case two is a 67-year-old male presenting for adjuvant 7910 | therapy after resection of rectal cancer. The patient progressed during 7911 | adjuvant treatment with capecitabine. Molecular characterization of the 7912 | malignancy revealed a BRAF V600E mutation (KRAS-, NRAS wild-type, MSS). 7913 | Treatment with FOLFOXIRI plus cetuximab was initiated, to which the 7914 | patient initially responded well. Due to progressive disease after about 7915 | 10 months, second-line treatment with capecitabine plus bevacizumab was 7916 | initiated. Under this therapy, the patient developed multiple brain 7917 | metastases which were treated by surgical and radiotherapeutic 7918 | interventions. After switching to encorafenib and cetuximab, the first 7919 | infusion of cetuximab led to a severe allergic reaction with pronounced 7920 | respiratory symptoms.

Immunohistochemistry for 8102 | BRAF V600E was strongly positive, while IDH1R132H was negative, and ATRX 8103 | was retained. The Ki67 proliferation index was 15%.

Patients with low-grade 8403 | glioma were required to have measurable non-enhancing disease (except 8404 | pilocytic astrocytoma) at baseline using the Response Assessment in 8405 | Neuro-Oncology low-grade glioma criteria. The primary endpoint, in the 8406 | evaluable intention-to-treat population, was investigator-assessed 8407 | objective response rate (complete response plus partial response for 8408 | high-grade glioma and complete response plus partial response plus minor 8409 | response for low-grade glioma). This trial is ongoing, but is closed for 8410 | enrolment, NCT02034110.Between April 17, 2014, and July 25, 2018, 45 8411 | patients (31 with glioblastoma) were enrolled into the high-grade glioma 8412 | cohort and 13 patients were enrolled into the low-grade glioma cohort. 8413 | The results presented here are based on interim analysis 16 (data cutoff 8414 | Sept 14, 2020). In the high-grade glioma cohort, median follow-up was 8415 | 12·7 months (IQR 5·4-32·3) and 15 (33%; 95% CI 20-49) of 45 patients had 8416 | an objective response by investigator assessment, including three 8417 | complete responses and 12 partial responses. In the low-grade glioma 8418 | cohort, median follow-up was 32·2 months (IQR 25·1-47·8). Nine (69%; 95% 8419 | CI 39-91) of 13 patients had an objective response by investigator 8420 | assessment, including one complete response, six partial responses, and 8421 | two minor responses. Grade 3 or worse adverse events were reported in 31 8422 | (53%) patients, the most common being fatigue (five [9%]), decreased 8423 | neutrophil count (five [9%]), headache (three [5%]), and neutropenia 8424 | (three [5%]).Dabrafenib plus trametinib showed clinically meaningful 8425 | activity in patients with BRAFV600E mutation-positive recurrent or 8426 | refractory high-grade glioma and low-grade glioma, with a safety profile 8427 | consistent with that in other indications.

To characterize 8510 | the mitogen-activated protein kinase/ERK kinase (MEK)/ERK dependence of 8511 | lung cancers harboring BRAF kinase domain mutations, we screened a large 8512 | panel of human lung cancer cell lines (n = 87) and tumors (n = 916) for 8513 | BRAF mutations. We found that non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) cells 8514 | with both V600E and non-V600E BRAF mutations were selectively sensitive 8515 | to MEK inhibition compared with those harboring mutations in epidermal 8516 | growth factor receptor (EGFR), KRAS, or ALK and ROS kinase fusions. 8517 | Supporting its classification as a "driver" mutation in the cells in 8518 | which it is expressed, MEK inhibition in (V600E)BRAF NSCLC cells led to 8519 | substantial induction of apoptosis, comparable with that seen with EGFR 8520 | kinase inhibition in EGFR mutant NSCLC models. Despite high basal ERK 8521 | phosphorylation, EGFR mutant cells were uniformly resistant to MEK 8522 | inhibition. Conversely, BRAF mutant cell lines were resistant to EGFR 8523 | inhibition. These data, together with the nonoverlapping pattern of EGFR 8524 | and BRAF mutations in human lung cancer, suggest that these lesions 8525 | define distinct clinical entities whose treatment should be guided by 8526 | prospective real-time genotyping. To facilitate such an effort, we 8527 | developed a mass spectrometry-based genotyping method for the detection 8528 | of hotspot mutations in BRAF, KRAS, and EGFR. Using this assay, we 8529 | confirmed that BRAF mutations can be identified in a minority of NSCLC 8530 | tumors and that patients whose tumors harbor BRAF mutations have a 8531 | distinct clinical profile compared with those whose tumors harbor kinase 8532 | domain mutations in EGFR. 8533 | Author String: 8534 | Christine A Pratilas, Aphrothiti J Hanrahan, Ensar Halilovic, Yogindra 8535 | Persaud, Junichi Soh, Dhananjay Chitale, Hisayuki Shigematsu, Hiromasa 8536 | Yamamoto, Ayana Sawai, Manickam Janakiraman, Barry S Taylor, William 8537 | Pao, Shinichi Toyooka, Marc Ladanyi, Adi Gazdar, Neal Rosen, David B 8538 | Solit 8539 | Citation: Pratilas et al., 2008 8540 | Citation Id: 19010912 8541 | Id: 341 8542 | Journal: Cancer Res 8543 | Link: /sources/341 8544 | Name: PubMed: Pratilas et al., 2008 8545 | Open Access: True 8546 | Pmc Id: PMC2649746 8547 | Publication Date: 2008-11-15 8548 | Retracted: False 8549 | Source Type: PUBMED 8550 | Source Url: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19010912 8551 | Title: Genetic predictors of MEK dependence in non-small cell lung cancer. 8552 | 8553 | ##### Therapies 8554 | Deprecated: False 8555 | Id: 29 8556 | Link: /therapies/29 8557 | Name: Mirdametinib 8558 | 8559 | #### Evidence Items 8560 | Description: 8561 | In these two phase II studies (Italy and U.S. locations), BRAF 8562 | V600E-mutant hairy-cell leukemia was treated with vemurafenib at a dose 8563 | of 960 mg twice daily to investigate its efficacy.

Since BRAF V600E is 9368 | oncogenic in other tumors, further analyses were focused on this genetic 9369 | lesion.

In immunohistologic and Western blot studies, HCL cells 9375 | expressed phosphorylated MEK and ERK (the downstream targets of the BRAF 9376 | kinase), indicating a constitutive activation of the RAF-MEK-ERK 9377 | mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway in HCL. In vitro incubation of 9378 | BRAF-mutated primary leukemic hairy cells from 5 patients with PLX-4720, 9379 | a specific inhibitor of active BRAF, led to a marked decrease in 9380 | phosphorylated ERK and MEK. CONCLUSIONS; The BRAF V600E mutation was 9381 | present in all patients with HCL who were evaluated.

PD-L1 expression correlated with SEMA4D and VEGF positively (r 9586 | = 0.344 and 0.363, P < 0.001). Over-expressions of PD-L1, VEGF and 9587 | SEMA4D are associated with more malignant clinicopathologic 9588 | characteristics of CREOC Patients. In survival analysis, patients' 9589 | response to BC was the independent factor for evaluation of PFS and 9590 | overall survival (OS).

We examined this 11131 | question in prospectively collected biospecimens from stage III colon 11132 | cancer with separate analysis of MSI and MSS tumors from patients 11133 | receiving adjuvant FOLFOX +/- cetuximab in two adjuvant therapy 11134 | trials.Three groups were defined: BRAF Mutant, KRAS Mutant, and double 11135 | wild-type. The analytic strategy involved estimation of study-specific 11136 | effects, assessment of homogeneity of results, and then analysis of 11137 | pooled data as no differences in patient outcome were found between 11138 | treatment arms in both trials. Associations of mutations with patient 11139 | outcome were analyzed, and multivariable models were adjusted for 11140 | treatment and relevant factors.Four thousand four hundred eleven tumors 11141 | were evaluable for BRAF and KRAS mutations and mismatch repair status; 11142 | 3934 were MSS and 477 were MSI. In MSS patients, all BRAF V600E 11143 | mutations (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.54, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.23 11144 | to 1.92, P < .001), KRAS codon 12 alterations, and p.G13D mutations (HR 11145 | = 1.60, 95% CI = 1.40 to 1.83, P < .001) were associated with shorter 11146 | time to recurrence (TTR) and shorter survival after relapse (SAR; HR = 11147 | 3.02 , 95% CI = 2.32 to 3.93, P < .001, and HR = 1.20, 95% CI = 1.01 to 11148 | 1.44, P = .04, respectively). Overall survival (OS) in MSS patients was 11149 | poorer for BRAF-mutant patients (HR = 2.01, 95% CI = 1.56 to 2.57, P < 11150 | .001) and KRAS-mutant patients (HR = 1.62, 95% CI = 1.38 to 1.91, P < 11151 | .001) vs wild-type. No prognostic role of KRAS or BRAF mutations was 11152 | seen in MSI patients. Furthermore, no interaction was found between 11153 | treatment arm (with or without cetuximab) and KRAS and BRAF mutations 11154 | for TTR or OS in MSS patients.In a pooled analysis of resected stage III 11155 | colon cancer patients receiving adjuvant FOLFOX, BRAF or KRAS mutations 11156 | are independently associated with shorter TTR, SAR, and OS in patients 11157 | with MSS, but not MSI, tumors. Future clinical trials in the adjuvant 11158 | setting should consider these mutations as important stratification 11159 | factors. 11160 | Author String: 11161 | Julien Taieb, Karine Le Malicot, Qian
