Penile squamous cell carcinoma (pSCC) represents an uncommon malignancy characterized by stagnant mortality, psychosexual distress, and a highly variable prognosis. Currently, the World Health Organization distinguishes between human papillomavirus (HPV)-related and HPV-independent pSCC. Recently, there has been an evolving line of research documenting the enrichment of HPV-independent pSCC with a high tumor mutational burden (TMB) and programmed death ligand-1 expression, as well as clusters of genes associated with HPV status. In this study, we conducted comprehensive next-generation sequencing DNA profiling of 146 pSCC samples using a panel consisting of 355 genes associated with tumors. This profiling was correlated with immunohistochemical markers and prognostic clinical data. A survival analysis of recurrent genomic events (found in ≥10 cases) was performed. TP53, CDKN2A, ATM, EPHA7, POT1, CHEK1, GRIN2A, and EGFR alterations were associated with significantly shortened overall survival in univariate and multivariate analysis. HPV positivity, diagnosed through both p16 immunohistochemistry and HPV DNA analysis, displayed no impact on survival but was associated with high-grade, lymphatic invasion, programmed death ligand-1 negativity/weak expression, and low TMB. FAT1, TP53, CDKN2A, CASP8, and HRAS were more often mutated in HPV-independent pSCC. In contrast, HPV-associated pSCCs were enriched by EPHA7, ATM, GRIN2A, and CHEK1 mutations. PIK3CA, FAT1, FBXW7, and KMT2D mutations were associated with high TMB. NOTCH1, TP53, CDKN2A, POT1, KMT2D, ATM, CHEK1, EPHA3, and EGFR alterations were related to adverse clinicopathologic signs, such as advanced stage, high tumor budding, and lymphovascular invasion. We detected 160 alterations with potential treatment implications, with 21.2% of samples showing alterations in the homologous recombination repair pathway. To the best of our knowledge, this study describes the largest cohort of pSCC with complex molecular pathologic, clinical, and prognostic analysis correlating with prognosis.

Olaparib treatment significantly improved objective response rate (primary end point) and progression-free survival versus nonplatinum chemotherapy in patients with BRCA-mutated platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer in the open-label phase III SOLO3 trial (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02282020). We report final overall survival (OS; prespecified secondary end point), post hoc OS analysis by number of previous chemotherapy lines, and exploratory BRCA reversion mutation analysis. Two hundred sixty-six patients were randomly assigned 2:1 to olaparib tablets (300 mg twice daily; n = 178) or physician's choice of single-agent nonplatinum chemotherapy (pegylated liposomal doxorubicin, paclitaxel, gemcitabine, or topotecan; n = 88). OS was similar with olaparib versus chemotherapy (hazard ratio [HR], 1.07 [95% CI, 0.76 to 1.49]; P = .71, median 34.9 and 32.9 months, respectively, full analysis set). OS with olaparib was favorable in patients with two previous chemotherapy lines (HR, 0.83 [olaparib v chemotherapy] [95% CI, 0.51 to 1.38]; median 37.9 v 28.8 months); however, a potential detrimental effect was seen in patients with at least three previous chemotherapy lines (HR, 1.33 [95% CI, 0.84 to 2.18]; median 29.9 v 39.4 months). BRCA reversion mutations might have contributed to this finding. No patient randomly assigned to olaparib with a BRCA reversion mutation detected at baseline (6 of 170 [3.5%]) achieved an objective tumor response.

Tumor suppressor p53 is a key player in the cell response to DNA damage that suffers by frequent inactivating aberrations. Some of them disturb p53 oligomerization and influence cell decision between proliferation, growth arrest and apoptosis. Active p53 resides mostly in the nucleus, degradation occurs in the cytoplasm. Acute myeloid leukemia (AML)-related mutation of NPM (NPMmut) induces massive mislocalization of p53 to the cytoplasm, which might be related to leukemia initiation. Since both proteins interact and execute their function as oligomers, we investigated the role of perturbed p53 oligomerization in the p53 mislocalization process in live cells by FLIM (fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy), fluorescence anisotropy imaging (FAIM), fluorescence cross-correlation spectroscopy (FCCS) and immunochemical methods. On a set of fluorescently labeled p53 variants, monomeric R337G and L344P, dimeric L344A, and multimeric D352G and A353S, we correlated their cellular localization, oligomerization and interaction with NPMmut. Interplay between nuclear export signal (NES) and nuclear localization signal (NLS) of p53 was investigated as well. While NLS was found critical for the nuclear p53 localization, NES plays less significant role. We observed cytoplasmic translocation only for multimeric A353S variant with sufficient stability and strong interaction with NPMmut. Less stable multimer D352G and L344A dimer were not translocated, monomeric p53 variants always resided in the nucleus independently of the presence of NPMmut and NES intactness. Oligomeric state of NPMmut is not required for p53 translocation, which happens also in the presence of the nonoligomerizing NPMmut variant. The prominent structural and functional role of the R337 residue is shown.

OBJECTIVE: Maintenance olaparib demonstrated clinical activity for progression-free survival in patients without a germline BRCA1 and/or BRCA2 mutation (non-gBRCAm) who had platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer in the phase IIIb, open-label, single-arm, non-comparator, international OPINION trial (NCT03402841). We report final overall survival (OS; secondary endpoint), prespecified secondary endpoint updates and ad hoc OS analysis by homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) and somatic BRCAm (sBRCAm) status. METHODS: Patients with non-gBRCAm platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer, ≥2 prior lines of platinum-based chemotherapy, and in response following their last platinum-based chemotherapy received 300 mg olaparib tablets twice daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. RESULTS: 279 patients were enrolled and treated. With a median follow-up in patients censored for OS of 33.1 months (data cut-off September 17, 2021), median OS was 32.7 months (95 % CI 29.5-35.3); the 24-month OS rate was 65.8 %. In ad hoc subgroup analyses, OS rates tended to be higher in patients with HRD-positive tumors; 24-month OS rates were 81.5 %, 74.2 %, 72.0 % and 55.8 % in the sBRCAm, HRD-positive including sBRCAm, HRD-positive excluding sBRCAm, and HRD-negative subgroups, respectively. Grade ≥ 3 treatment-emergent adverse events were reported in 82 patients (29.4 %), most commonly anemia (13.6 %). Overall, two cases of myelodysplastic syndrome were reported (no new cases since the primary analysis). CONCLUSION: These data provide additional evidence of olaparib as maintenance therapy in patients with non-gBRCAm platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer, with longer OS observed in those with HRD-positive tumors. The safety profile was consistent with the primary analysis and known safety profile of olaparib, with no new safety findings.

BACKGROUND: In the ARIEL4 trial of rucaparib versus standard-of-care chemotherapy in patients with relapsed BRCA-mutated ovarian carcinoma, the primary endpoint was met, showing improved investigator-assessed progression-free survival with rucaparib. Here, we present the final overall survival analysis of the trial and other post-progression outcomes. METHODS: This open-label, randomised, controlled phase 3 trial was done at 64 hospitals and cancer centres in 12 countries, including Brazil, Canada, Czech Republic, Hungary, Israel, Italy, Poland, Russia, Spain, Ukraine, the UK, and the USA. Eligible patients were women aged 18 or older with BRCA1 or BRCA2-mutated ovarian carcinoma and had received at least two previous chemotherapy regimens. Patients had to have evaluable disease as per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST; version 1.1) criteria and an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 or 1. Patients were randomly assigned (2:1) using an interactive response technology and block randomisation (block size of six) and stratified by progression-free interval after the most recent platinum-containing therapy to receive oral rucaparib (600 mg twice daily administered in 28-day cycles) or chemotherapy on the basis of platinum-sensitivity status. In the chemotherapy group, patients with platinum-resistant disease (progression-free interval ≥1 to <6 months) or partially platinum-sensitive disease (progression-free interval ≥6 to <12 months) received weekly paclitaxel (starting dose 60-80 mg/m2 on days 1, 8, and 15). Patients with fully platinum-sensitive disease (progression-free interval ≥12 months) received the investigator's choice of platinum-based chemotherapy (single-agent cisplatin or carboplatin, or platinum-doublet chemotherapy), in 21-day or 28-day cycles. The primary endpoint (previously reported) was investigator-assessed progression-free survival, assessed in the efficacy population (all randomly assigned patients with deleterious BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations without reversion mutations) and in the intention-to-treat population (all randomly assigned patients). Overall survival was a prespecified secondary endpoint and was analysed in the intention-to-treat population. Safety was assessed in all patients who received at least one dose of assigned study treatment. The cutoff date was April 10, 2022. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02855944; enrolment is complete and the study is closed. FINDINGS: Between March 1, 2017, and Sept 24, 2020, 349 eligible patients were randomly assigned to receive rucaparib (n=233) or chemotherapy (n=116). 332 (95%) of 349 patients were white and 17 (5%) patients were other or of unknown race. In the chemotherapy group, 80 (69%) of 116 patients crossed over to receive rucaparib. Median follow-up was 41·2 months (IQR 37·8-44·6). At data cutoff for this final analysis (April 10, 2022), 244 (70%) of 349 patients had died: 167 (72%) of 233 in the rucaparib group and 77 (66%) of 116 in the rucaparib group. Median overall survival was 19·4 months (95% CI 15·2-23·6) in the rucaparib group versus 25·4 months (21·4-27·6) in the chemotherapy group (hazard ratio 1·3 [95% CI 1·0-1·7], p=0·047). No new safety signals were observed, including during crossover to rucaparib. The most common grade 3-4 adverse events across treatment groups included anaemia or decreased haemoglobin (reported in 59 [25%] of 232 patients in the rucaparib group and seven [6%] of 113 in the chemotherapy group), and neutropenia or decreased neutrophil count (in 26 [11%] of 232 in the rucaparib group and 16 [14%] of 113 patients in the chemotherapy group). Serious adverse events were reported in 66 (28%) of 232 patients in the rucaparib group and 14 (12%) of 113 patients in the chemotherapy group. Ten treatment-related deaths were reported in the rucaparib group, two of which were linked to judged to be related to rucaparib (cardiac disorder and myelodysplastic syndrome), and one death related to treatment was reported in the chemotherapy group, with no specific cause linked to the treatment. INTERPRETATION: These data highlight the need for a better understanding of the most appropriate treatment for patients who have progressed on a poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor, and the optimal sequencing of chemotherapy and PARP inhibitors in advanced ovarian cancer.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) is an RNA virus responsible for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). While SARS-CoV-2 primarily targets the lungs and airways, it can also infect other organs, including the central nervous system (CNS). The aim of this study was to investigate whether the choroid plexus could serve as a potential entry site for SARS-CoV-2 into the brain. Tissue samples from 24 deceased COVID-19-positive individuals were analyzed. Reverse transcription real-time PCR (RT-qPCR) was performed on selected brain regions, including the choroid plexus, to detect SARS-CoV-2 viral RNA. Additionally, immunofluorescence staining and confocal microscopy were used to detect and localize two characteristic proteins of SARS-CoV-2: the spike protein S1 and the nucleocapsid protein. RT-qPCR analysis confirmed the presence of SARS-CoV-2 viral RNA in the choroid plexus. Immunohistochemical staining revealed viral particles localized in the epithelial cells of the choroid plexus, with the spike protein S1 detected in the late endosomes. Our findings suggest that the blood-cerebrospinal fluid (B-CSF) barrier in the choroid plexus serves as a route of entry for SARS-CoV-2 into the CNS. This study contributes to the understanding of the mechanisms underlying CNS involvement in COVID-19 and highlights the importance of further research to explore potential therapeutic strategies targeting this entry pathway.

Changes in cellular physiology and proteomic homeostasis accompanied the initiation and progression of colorectal cancer. Thus, ubiquitination represents a central regulatory mechanism in proteome dynamics. However, the complexity of the ubiquitinating network involved in carcinogenesis remains unclear. This study revealed the tumor-suppressive role of the ubiquitin ligase Cullin4A (CUL4A) in the intestine. We showed that simultaneous loss of CUL4A and hyperactivation of the Wnt pathway promotes tumor development in the distal colon. This tumor development is caused by an accumulation of the inactive SMAD3, a TGF-β pathway mediator. Depletion of CUL4A resulted in stabilization of HUWE1, which attenuated SMAD3 function. We showed a correlation between the intracellular localization of CUL4A and colorectal cancer progression, where nuclear CUL4A localization correlates with advanced colorectal cancer progression. In summary, we identified CUL4A as an important regulator of SMAD3 signal transduction competence in a HUWE1-dependent manner and demonstrated a critical role for the crosstalk between ubiquitination and the Wnt/TGF-β signaling pathways in gastrointestinal homeostasis.

BACKGROUND: The open-label, single-arm, multicentre ORZORA trial (NCT02476968) evaluated maintenance olaparib in patients with platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer (PSR OC) with a germline (g) or somatic (s) BRCA1 and/or BRCA2 mutation (BRCAm) or a non-BRCA homologous recombination repair mutation (non-BRCA HRRm). METHODS: Patients were in response to platinum-based chemotherapy after ≥2 prior lines of treatment and underwent prospective central screening for tumour BRCA status, then central gBRCAm testing to determine sBRCAm or gBRCAm status. An exploratory cohort evaluated non-BRCA HRRm in 13 predefined genes. Patients received olaparib 400 mg (capsules) twice daily until investigator-assessed disease progression. Secondary endpoints included overall survival (OS) and safety. RESULTS: 177 patients received olaparib. At the final data cutoff (25 June 2021), median OS from study enrolment was 46.8 (95% confidence interval [CI] 37.9-54.4), 43.2 (31.7-NC [not calculated]), 47.4 (37.9-NC) and 44.9 (28.9-NC) months in the BRCAm, sBRCAm, gBRCAm and non-BRCA HRRm cohorts, respectively. No new safety signals were identified. CONCLUSION: Maintenance olaparib showed consistent clinical activity in the BRCAm and sBRCAm cohorts; exploratory analysis suggested similar activity in the non-BRCA HRRm cohort. These findings highlight that patients with PSR OC, beyond those with gBRCAm, may benefit from maintenance olaparib.

Developing methodological approaches for discovering novel pathways is a key challenge in the life science research. Biological pathways are regulated-in higher eukaryotes-by a vast diversity of linear peptide motifs that mediate combinatorial specificity in signal transduction pathways. The E3 ubiquitin ligase component (MDM2) is such a protein that interacts with target proteins containing linear motifs such as p53. Drug leads, such as Nutlin-3, that bind to the MDM2 hydrophobic pocket mimic p53 and can release p53 from MDM2 control and this can lead to cell death. However, these drug leads act allosterically, having agonist effects on MDM2's functions and there are other proteins whose steady state levels can be altered by Nutlin-3. As cell density can alter the proliferation state of cell populations, we examined the impact of Nutlin-3 on levels of newly synthesized proteins using pulse-SILAC mass spectrometry. The data demonstrate that at differing cell densities or population-wide proliferation rates, different newly synthesized proteins dominate the proteome landscape in a Nutlin-3 dependent manner. These data further confirm that the cell state in a population of cells can in turn impact on the MDM2 signalling landscape. This methodology forms a blueprint for biomarker discovery using clinical samples that can detect changes in the synthesis rate of proteins in cell populations treated with specific agents. Broader implications highlight tools that can be used to study allosteric regulation of protein-drug combinations.

Somatic hypermutation (SHM) and class switch recombination (CSR) diversify immunoglobulin (Ig) genes and are initiated by the activation-induced deaminase (AID), a single-stranded DNA cytidine deaminase thought to engage its substrate during RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) transcription. Through a genetic screen, we identified numerous potential factors involved in SHM, including elongation factor 1 homolog (ELOF1), a component of the RNAPII elongation complex that functions in transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair (TC-NER) and transcription elongation. Loss of ELOF1 compromises SHM, CSR, and AID action in mammalian B cells and alters RNAPII transcription by reducing RNAPII pausing downstream of transcription start sites and levels of serine 5 but not serine 2 phosphorylated RNAPII throughout transcribed genes. ELOF1 must bind to RNAPII to be a proximity partner for AID and to function in SHM and CSR, and TC-NER is not required for SHM. We propose that ELOF1 helps create the appropriate stalled RNAPII substrate on which AID acts.
