Summary |
Breast cancer is a heterogeneous collection of disease arising from the breast with distinct molecular and phenotypic features. Certain subsets of patients have tumors that are particularly difficult-to-treat, which include triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), metastatic/recurrent disease and rare histological variants. To delineate the underlying biology and identify therapeutic candidates for these patients, a series of 37 breast cancer patient-derived xenografts (PDX) from both chemo-naïve and pre-treated specimens was generated from 81 transplant attempts. Whole-genome and transcriptome sequencing revealed marked fidelity of the molecular landscape for the majority of PDXs in comparison to parental tumors. Reverse-phase protein array analysis of PDXs further identified potential therapeutic targets. Metastatic potential varied between PDXs, where low-penetrance lung micrometastases was the most common pattern of dissemination and observed in 34.5% of models. Three PDXs recapitulated the metastatic localization seen in the corresponding patients, including two lines with high-frequency metastases to multiple vital organ systems, while another PDX displayed tropism to the skull-base. Chemosensitivity profiling was performed in vivo with standard-of-care agents (doxorubicin, cisplatin, gemcitabine or paclitaxel), where multi-drug chemoresistance was found in 60.0% of PDXs and 64.7% of responses were concordant with pre-engraftment responses observed in the patient. Consolidating chemogenomic data identified potentially actionable features in 97.2% of PDXs, and marked regressions were seen in vivo when a subset of these underwent proof-of-concept functional studies. This included FGFR inhibitor sensitivity in a FGFR1-amplified lobular carcinoma, mTOR inhibitor sensitivity in a recurrent neuroendocrine breast cancer with proteomic evidence of mTOR/PI3K activation, and platinum sensitivity in a TNBC with BRCA1 germline mutation predicted as benign. Together, this clinically-annotated PDX library with comprehensive molecular and phenotypic profiling serves as a resource for both discovery and validation preclinical studies on difficult-to-treat breast tumors.
