Definitions

  • RTKs Receptor tyrosine kinases
  • Many RTKs are proto-oncogenes; aberrant RTK activity can drive cell survival, growth and proliferation leading to cancer and related disorders. This aberrant kinase activity can be caused by mutations such as activating mutations in the kinase domain, gene rearrangements that result in fusion proteins containing the intact kinase domain, amplification and other means.
  • RTK proto-oncogenes include ROS1, anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), NTRK1 (encodes TRKA), NTRK2 (encodes TRKB), and NTRK3 (encodes TRKC).
  • ROS1 is an RTK proto-oncogene, with ROS1 rearrangements detected in nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC), glioblastoma, inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT), cholangiocarcinoma, ovarian cancer, gastric cancer, colorectal cancer, angiosarcoma, and spitzoid melanoma.
  • NSCLC nonsmall cell lung cancer
  • IMT inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor
  • cholangiocarcinoma cholangiocarcinoma
  • ovarian cancer gastric cancer
  • colorectal cancer colorectal cancer
  • angiosarcoma angiosarcoma
  • spitzoid melanoma spitzoid melanoma.
  • Oncogenic ROS1 gene fusions contain the kinase domain of ROS1 (3’ region) fused to the 5’ region of a variety of partner genes.
  • ROS1 fusion partner genes observed in NSCLC include SLC34A2, CD74, TPM3, SDC4, EZR, LRIG3, KDELR2, CEP72, CLTL, CTNND2, GOPC, GPRC6A, LIMA1, LRIG3, MSN, MY05C, OPRM1, SLC6A17 (putative), SLMAP, SRSF6, TFG, TMEM106B, TPD52L1, ZCCHC8 and CCDC6.

  • TRKB were synthesized at GeneRay, cloned into the retroviral construct pMSCV-puro (Biovector), and packaged into retroviral particles.
  • Infected cells were rescued in media (RPML 1640 with 10% fetal bovine serum and 1% streptomycin and penicillin) supplemented with mouse IL-3 (10 ng/mL) for 2 days, and stable cell lines were selected by IL-3 withdrawal and puromycin (0.8 pg/mL) for 7 days.
  • Monoclones were selected by single-cell dilution in IL-3-free medium containing puromycin (0.8 pg/mL). Transformation of desired genes was confirmed by Sanger sequencing and western blot using the following antibodies: ROS1 (CST #3287) and pan- TRK (Abeam #76291).
  • Stable cells were plated at 1,000 cells/well (40 pL) in a 384-well plate for 1 day.
  • Test compounds 40 nL were then added in a 3-fold dilution series using the TEC AN EV0200 liquid handler and incubated for 72 hours. Plates were equilibrated at room temperature for 15 minutes followed by addition of 40 pL CellTiter-Glo reagent (Promega). Luminescence was measured on a plate reader. Half-maximal inhibitory concentration (ICso) was calculated from percent inhibition and inhibitor concentration using four-parameter logistic regression.
  • Compound potency can be interpreted by binning ICso values: bin A for high potency, 0.1 nM ⁇ ICso ⁇ 50 nM; bin B for medium potency, 50 nM ⁇ TC50 ⁇ 500 nM; and bin C for low potency, IC50 > 500 nM.
  • Compounds are more desirable if they exhibit smaller IC50 values against the on- target Ba/F3 cells (ROS 1 -fusion) and larger IC50 values against the off-target Ba/F3 cells (TRKB-fusion).
