Popis: | Background: ER- HER2+ BC is comprised of a heterogeneous mix of intrinsic BC subtypes which have differential responsiveness to preop HER2-directed therapies combined with chemotherapy. Patients (pts) with ER- HER2+ BC whose disease progressed while on or who had no response to preop HER2-directed therapy are uncommon and the mechanisms of resistance within this primary-refractory disease are unknown. We utilized RPPA-based protein pathway activation mapping to map the drug target signaling architecture in pts’ primary-refractory ER- HER2+ BCs to begin to assess mechanisms of resistance. Methods: Eight primary-refractory ER- HER2+ FFPE BC tissues obtained from 5 pts (preop biopsies n=4 and/or post-treatment surgical resection n=4) underwent laser capture microdissection to isolate pure tumor epithelium followed by RPPA-based analysis of the levels and/or activation/phosphorylation of approximately 130 key signaling proteins known to be involved in tumorigenesis and metastatic progression. Results: Pts were all treated with preop trastuzumab, pertuzumab, docetaxel, and carboplatin (TCHP) with no response and/or with progression of disease. Three pts also received preop doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide without response. RPPA-based analysis revealed that post-TCHP surgical samples had higher activation of a number of drug targets including receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK) such as MET and ALK, as well as HER family signaling proteins phospho-HER3 and phospho-EGFR compared to the matched pre-TCHP samples. Conclusions: In these ER- HER2+ BCs that were primary-refractory to preop TCHP, in those pts with patient-matched pre/post treatment samples, activation of several potential resistance pathways such as alternative RKT signaling as well as EGFR and HER3 signaling was observed. These data are hypothesis-generating and require exploration in additional ER- HER2+ primary-refractory tissues.
