RESUMO
Although Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors (BTKi) have significantly improved patient prognosis, mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is still considered incurable due to primary and acquired resistance. We have recently shown that aberrant expression of the Src-family tyrosine kinase hematopoietic cell kinase (HCK) in MCL correlates with poor prognosis, and that genetic HCK perturbation impairs growth and integrin-mediated adhesion of MCL cells. Here, we show that KIN-8194, a dual inhibitor of BTK and HCK with in vivo activity against Myd88-L265P-driven diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and Waldenström Macroglobulinemia, has a potent growth inhibitory effect in MCL cell lines and primary MCL cells, irrespective of their sensitivity to BTKi (ibrutinib and acalabrutinib). In BTKi-resistant cells this is mediated by inhibition of HCK, which results in repression of AKT-S6 signaling. In addition, KIN-8194 inhibits integrin-mediated adhesion of BTKi-sensitive and insensitive MCL cells to fibronectin and stromal cells in an HCK-dependent manner. Finally, we show that MCL cells with acquired BTKi resistance retain their sensitivity to KIN-8194. Taken together, our data demonstrate that KIN-8194 inhibits growth and integrin-mediated adhesion of BTKi-sensitive MCL cells, as well as MCL cells with primary or acquired BTKi resistance. This renders KIN-8194 a promising novel treatment for MCL patients.

Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) followed by hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is a treatment with curative intent for peritoneal metastasis of colorectal cancer (CRC). Currently, there is no standardized HIPEC protocol: choice of drug, perfusate temperature, and duration of treatment vary per institute. We investigated the temperature-dependent effectiveness of drugs often used in HIPEC. METHODS: The effect of temperature on drug uptake, DNA damage, apoptosis, cell cycle distribution, and cell growth were assessed using the temperature-dependent IC50 and Thermal Enhancement Ratio (TER) values of the chemotherapeutic drugs cisplatin, oxaliplatin, carboplatin, mitomycin-C (MMC), and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) on 2D and 3D CRC cell cultures at clinically relevant hyperthermic conditions (38-43 °C/60 min). RESULTS: Hyperthermia alone decreased cell viability and clonogenicity of all cell lines. Treatment with platinum-based drugs and MMC resulted in G2-arrest. Platinum-based drugs display a temperature-dependent synergy with heat, with increased drug uptake, DNA damage, and apoptosis at elevated temperatures. Apoptotic levels increased after treatment with MMC or 5-FU, without a synergy with heat. CONCLUSION: Our in vitro results demonstrate that a 60-min exposure of platinum-based drugs and MMC are effective in treating 2D and 3D CRC cell cultures, where platinum-based drugs require hyperthermia (>41 °C) to augment effectivity, suggesting that they are, in principle, suitable for HIPEC.
