Drug <strong>Resistance</strong> <strong>in</strong> <strong>Cancer</strong><br />
• May affect multiple drugs used simultaneously:<br />
known as multidrug resistance (MDR)<br />
• Affects all classes <strong>of</strong> drugs, <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g newly<br />
designed targeted drugs<br />
• Just as oncogene targets have been catalogued,<br />
we need to enumerate all mechanisms <strong>of</strong> drug<br />
resistance <strong>in</strong> cancer to solve this problem and<br />
circumvent resistance
<strong>Mechanisms</strong> <strong>of</strong> resistance to<br />
anti-cancer drugs<br />
Decreased<br />
uptake<br />
Reduced apoptosis<br />
Altered cell cycle checkpo<strong>in</strong>ts<br />
Increased metabolism <strong>of</strong> drugs<br />
Increased or altered targets<br />
Increased repair <strong>of</strong> damage<br />
Compartmentalization<br />
Increased<br />
efflux
Ultimate Goals<br />
1. Molecular analysis <strong>of</strong> human cancers<br />
to predict response to therapy<br />
2. Use this <strong>in</strong>formation to develop novel<br />
drugs to treat cancer and new imag<strong>in</strong>g<br />
modalities for cancer<br />
3. To learn more about cellular<br />
pharmacology and pharmacok<strong>in</strong>etics<br />
<strong>of</strong> drugs, <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g drug uptake,<br />
distribution, and excretion

Role <strong>of</strong> P-glycoprote<strong>in</strong> <strong>in</strong> cancer<br />
• Approximately 50% <strong>of</strong> human cancers express P-glycoprote<strong>in</strong> at<br />
levels sufficient to confer MDR<br />
• <strong>Cancer</strong>s which acquire expression <strong>of</strong> P-gp follow<strong>in</strong>g treatment <strong>of</strong> the<br />
patient <strong>in</strong>clude leukemias, myeloma, lymphomas, breast, ovarian<br />
cancer; prelim<strong>in</strong>ary results with P-gp <strong>in</strong>hibitors suggest improved<br />
response to chemotherapy <strong>in</strong> some <strong>of</strong> these patients<br />
• <strong>Cancer</strong>s which express P-gp at time <strong>of</strong> diagnosis <strong>in</strong>clude colon,<br />
kidney, pancreas, liver; these do not respond to P-gp <strong>in</strong>hibitors alone<br />
and have other mechanisms <strong>of</strong> resistance<br />
• Be<strong>in</strong>g able to image P-gp <strong>in</strong> cancer (and ultimately other transporters<br />
that contribute to resistance) could help guide therapy
Physiologic Role <strong>of</strong> P-glycoprote<strong>in</strong>
ABC transporters determ<strong>in</strong>e oral bioavailability, excretion, penetration<br />

Polymorphisms <strong>in</strong> the human<br />
MDR1 1 gene<br />
1. More than 50 SNPs have been reported <strong>in</strong> the MDR1 gene.<br />
14 <strong>of</strong> them are silent polymorphisms.<br />
2. 5 common cod<strong>in</strong>g (non-synonymous) polymorphisms have no<br />
demonstrable effect on drug transport function.<br />
3. The synonymous SNP <strong>in</strong> exon 26 (C3435T) was the first associated<br />
with altered MDR1 function and is <strong>of</strong>ten part <strong>of</strong> a haplotype <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g<br />
another synonymous (C1236T) and a nonsynonymous SNP (G2677T).
The C1236T, G2677T, C3435T haplotype has<br />
been l<strong>in</strong>ked to several different phenotypes<br />
•Altered digox<strong>in</strong> and fex<strong>of</strong>enad<strong>in</strong>e<br />

•Altered toxicity <strong>in</strong> transplant patients from<br />

SLC22: organic<br />
cation and anion<br />
transporter (OCT<br />
And OAT) families
Summary <strong>of</strong> SLCO and SLC22 Transporters<br />
Most <strong>of</strong> the SLCO and SLC22 family members we tested are<br />
expressed at some level <strong>in</strong> cancer cell l<strong>in</strong>es.<br />
By correlat<strong>in</strong>g the expression pr<strong>of</strong>iles with the growth<br />
<strong>in</strong>hibitory pr<strong>of</strong>iles, expression <strong>of</strong> 3 <strong>of</strong> the SLCO and SLC22<br />
family members were found to correlate with sensitivity to<br />
specific drugs.<br />
Expression <strong>of</strong> SLC22A4 <strong>in</strong> KB cells confers sensitivity to<br />
mitoxantrone, doxorubic<strong>in</strong>, carboplat<strong>in</strong> and cisplat<strong>in</strong>.
Micr<strong>of</strong>luidic technology us<strong>in</strong>g TaqMan Low Density Array<br />
(TLDA)-based detection to study the mechanisms <strong>of</strong><br />
multidrug resistance <strong>in</strong> cl<strong>in</strong>ical samples<br />
Goal: To correlate expression <strong>of</strong> drug-resistance genes with response to<br />
chemotherapy <strong>in</strong> cl<strong>in</strong>ical samples<br />
Method: a customized TLDA with probes for 380 drug-resistance genes enabl<strong>in</strong>g<br />
high-throughput quantitative real-time PCR based on TaqMan chemistry<br />
Port<br />
1 to 8 samples<br />
Channel<br />
Each well conta<strong>in</strong>s a pair<br />
<strong>of</strong> primers and a probe<br />
12 to 380 targets<br />
1, 2 or 4 replicates
The Anti-<strong>Cancer</strong> Drug <strong>Resistance</strong> Transcriptome
No ovarian cell l<strong>in</strong>e has a drug-resistance gene<br />
expression pr<strong>of</strong>ile similar to any cl<strong>in</strong>ical sample
Strategies for deal<strong>in</strong>g with MDR1-<br />
mediated multidrug resistance<br />
Development <strong>of</strong><br />
specific <strong>in</strong>hibitors <strong>of</strong> P-<br />
gp<br />
Poor performance <strong>in</strong><br />
cl<strong>in</strong>ical trials for a<br />
number <strong>of</strong> reasons:<br />
-Poor trial design, e.g.,<br />
cancers don’t<br />
express MDR1<br />
Can we use MDR1<br />
Expression as an<br />
Achilles<br />
heel to kill MDR<br />
cells?<br />
-Side effects due to<br />
<strong>in</strong>hibition <strong>of</strong> endogenous<br />
functions<br />
Drug structural variation<br />
Dose escalation<br />
Imag<strong>in</strong>g <strong>of</strong> P-gp <strong>in</strong> vivo <strong>in</strong> cancers can<br />
enable all <strong>of</strong> these strategies
