Abstract
Abstract
Background:
Based upon the association between pathologic response and disease free survival, the neoadjuvant setting is increasingly being used for drug development. NGS has identified unique and recurrent genetic alterations in breast cancer (BC) that are potentially targetable; however, the clinical implications are mostly unknown. We developed a prospective neoadjuvant study (BEAUTY) in high risk BC patients (pts) using weekly T followed by anthracycline-based chemo wherein percutaneous tumor biopsies (PTB) are obtained before/during/after chemo for NGS and PDX. Our goal is to identify novel biomarkers/pathways and develop PDX to test new therapeutic approaches.
Methods: Pts underwent PTB at baseline and after 12 wks of T. Response to T was defined based upon 12 week Ki-67: responder (<15%) vs non-responder (≥15%). Pts with histologic response and absence of invasive BC at 12 wks were classified as responders. NGS was performed using PTB/blood DNA (exome) and PTB (RNA seq). MRI response was classified using RECIST criteria. NGS data were used to identify somatic copy number variants (cnvs) and expressed single nucleotide variants (eSNVs). Non-SCID mice (estrogen supplemented) were implanted ≤ 30 minutes with PTB samples.
Results: Of the first 78 pts, 44 have completed T. Here we focus on 18 pts with either triple negative or luminal B BC. Clinical characteristics according to Ki-67 response are shown in Table 1. Comparison of genomic alterations in BEAUTY pts with TCGA identified a greater overlap with copy number gains (73%) compared to deletions (40%), along with similar observations of mutations in TP53, PTEN, RYR2, and AKT1 genes. Association analysis of CNVs and eSNVs between responders/non-responders identified 33 genes (predominantly located in chromosomes 1, 8, 13) and 580 eSNVs (corresponding to 497 genes) with a p < 0.05. Differential gene expression (DGE) analysis of responders/non-responders identified 198 genes with a p-value < 0.05. Integrated analysis of 539 genes (CNVs, eSNVs and DGE) identified pathways such as TGF-beta, Jak-Stat, WNT and NOTCH signalling. PDX take rate was 44% [triple negative (6/10); Luminal B (2/8)]. PDX growth rate was significantly associated with clinical baseline Ki-67 (p = 0.00014).
Conclusion: This is the first prospective study to demonstrate the feasibility of using PTB to obtain both NGS data and PDX in the neoadjuvant setting. PDX take rate is associated with BC subtype and baseline Ki-67. Studies are ongoing to 1) validate genes/pathways associated with treatment response in subsequent BEAUTY pts; 2) genomically characterize and assess PDX in vivo response to T and 3) Use NGS data to prioritize new drugs/drug combinations in PDX.

Abstract
Abstract
SERMs have proven to be highly effective in both therapy and prevention of ER+ breast cancers. Tamoxifen has been the most commonly used SERM, but arzoxifene (another high- affinity competitive SERM agonist) showed strong activity in early clinical trials against ER+ breast cancer; although further development was discontinued. Both SERMs have shown a dose dependent effect on prevention and therapy of rat mammary tumors in the ER+ MNU model of cancer. Of interest, the doses required for prevention was significantly lower than the doses required for therapy. In the present study, rats bearing mammary cancers induced by MNU were treated with tamoxifen (0.66, 3.3, 20 and 100 ppm in diet) or arzoxifene (3.0 ppm in diet) for 5 days. Global gene expression analysis showed that more than 100 genes were down-regulated and more than 100 genes were up-regulated (p < 0.05 and fold change >1.5) in cancers treated with tamoxifen doses > 3 ppm; and that many of these gene changes were dose dependent. The genes modulated by tamoxifen and arzoxifene were enriched in the cell cycle pathway that were related to chromosome condensation in prometaphase [including Aurora-A, Aurora-B, Bub1B, non-SMC condensing I complex, subunit H (BRRN1), Condensin, CAP-G, CAP-G/G2, CAP-H/H2, CAP-D2/D3, CAP-E, TOP2, Cyclin A, Cyclin B, CDK1, Histone H1 and inter-centromere protein (INCENP]. Employing a different set of tamoxifen treated samples, we were able to confirm that many of the same genes were modulated employing a quantitative RT-PCR assay. Finally, we will compare certain of the gene changes obtained in the animal model with gene changes observed in human neoadjuvant trials.

Abstract
Early-onset major depressive disorder (MDD) is a serious and prevalent psychiatric illness in adolescents and young adults. Current treatments are not optimally effective. Biological markers of early-onset MDD could increase diagnostic specificity, but no such biomarker exists. Our innovative approach to biomarker discovery for early-onset MDD combined results from genome-wide transcriptomic profiles in the blood of two animal models of depression, representing the genetic and the environmental, stress-related, etiology of MDD. We carried out unbiased analyses of this combined set of 26 candidate blood transcriptomic markers in a sample of 15-19-year-old subjects with MDD (N=14) and subjects with no disorder (ND, N=14). A panel of 11 blood markers differentiated participants with early-onset MDD from the ND group. Additionally, a separate but partially overlapping panel of 18 transcripts distinguished subjects with MDD with or without comorbid anxiety. Four transcripts, discovered from the chronic stress animal model, correlated with maltreatment scores in youths. These pilot data suggest that our approach can lead to clinically valid diagnostic panels of blood transcripts for early-onset MDD, which could reduce diagnostic heterogeneity in this population and has the potential to advance individualized treatment strategies.

Abstract
Abstract
The preventive efficacies of the triterprenoid 5MeCDDO were examined in three preclinical models of breast cancer. We initially evaluated 5MeCDDO in an ER+ mammary model in which female Sprague-Dawley rats were administered MNU, i.v., at 50 days of age. 5MeCDDO (27 ppm) was administered in the diet beginning 5 days after MNU, and continuing for the duration of the study. Doses >50 ppm were toxic. 5MeCDDO failed to decrease tumor latency or multiplicity and, in fact, increased the size of the cancers which did develop. This concentration of 5MeCDDO greatly increased liver to body weight ratios. We also examined the preventive efficacy of 5MeCDDO (54 and 27 mg/kg diet) in a bitransgenic model (MMTV-Neu/p53KO) of ER− mammary cancer. In this model, animals develop cancers which overexpress Neu and fail to have a mutation in the transmembrane domain of Neu. Similarly to results in the MNU model, 5 MeCDDO did not alter either tumor latency or multiplicity. The effect of 5MeCDDO was further evaluated in a third model in which ER+ tumors were induced by the procarcinogen dimethylbenzanthracene (DMBA). DMBA was administered by gavage to female Sprague-Dawley rats at 50 days of age. In this model (which examines the ability of an agent to alter the activation of the carcinogen) the preventive agent was administered beginning 7 days prior to DMBA and was continued until 7 days post DMBA. 5,6 Benzoflavone (500 ppm), a positive control, decreased tumor multiplicity >90%, while 5MeCDDO (27 or 2.7 ppm) decreased multiplicity 65 and 35%, respectively. The efficacy observed in this model is in agreement with the ability of the agent to stimulate the ARE, and to induce a variety of ARE related genes (e.g., GST PI, quinone reductase, etc). Thus, as expected, high induction of the ARE was associated with a decrease in DMBA-induced cancer initiation, but not a decrease in the progression stage of mammary cancer development in three cancer models. This latter finding brings into question whether merely measuring induction of the ARE (e.g., quinone reductase) is sufficient to imply the general preventive efficacy of a given agent or mixture.
