Abstract Inhibitors of histone deacetylases (HDACIs) like valproic acid (VPA) display activity in murine leukemia models, and induce tumor-selective cytoxicity against blasts from patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, despite of the existing knowledge of the potential function of HDACIs, there remain many unsolved questions especially regarding the factors that determine whether a cancer cell undergoes cell cycle arrest, differentiation, or death in response to HDACIs. Furthermore, there is still limited data on HDACIs effects in vivo, as well as HDACIs function in combination with standard induction chemotherapy, as most studies evaluated HDACIs as single agent in vitro. Thus, our first goal was to determine a VPA response signature in different myeloid leukemia cell lines in vitro, followed by an in vivo analysis of VPA effects in blasts from adult de novo AML patients entered within two randomized multicenter treatment trials of the German-Austrian AML Study Group. To define an VPA in vitro “response signature” we profiled gene expression in myeloid leukemia cell lines (HL-60, NB-4, HEL-1, CMK and K-562) following 48 hours of VPA treatment by using DNA Microarray technology. In accordance with previous studies in vitro VPA treatment of myeloid cell lines induced the expression of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors CDKN1A and CDKN2D coding for p21 and p19, respectively. Supervised analyses revealed many genes known to be associated with a G1 arrest. In all cell lines except for CMK we examined an up-regulation of TNFSF10 coding for TRAIL, as well as differential regulation of other genes involved in apoptosis. Furthermore, gene set enrichment analyses showed a significant down-regulation of genes involved in DNA metabolism and DNA repair. Next, we evaluated the VPA effects on gene expression in AML samples collected within the AMLSG 07-04 trial for younger (age<60yrs) and within the AMLSG 06-04 trial for older adults (age>60yrs), in which patients are randomized to receive standard induction chemotherapy (idarubicine, cytarabine, and etoposide = ICE) with or without concomitant VPA. We profiled gene expression in diagnostic AML blasts and following 48 hours of treatment with ICE or ICE/VPA. First results from our ongoing analysis of in vivo VPA treated samples are in accordance with our cell line experiments as e.g. we also see an induction of CDKN1A expression. However, the picture observed is less homogenous as concomitant administration of ICE, as well as other factors, like e.g. VPA serum levels, might substantially influence the in vivo VPA response. Nevertheless, our data are likely to provide new insights into the VPA effect in vivo, and this study may proof to be useful to predict AML patients likely to benefit from VPA treatment. To achieve this goal, we are currently analyzing additional samples, and we are planning to correlate gene expression findings with histone acetylation status, VPA serum levels, cytogenetic, and molecular genetic data.

Abstract Antimalarial artemisinins have broad antineoplastic activity in vitro, are well tolerated and inexpensive, and can be parenterally or orally administered in humans. Artemisinin-derived trioxane diphenylphosphate dimer 838 (ART838; a potent artemisinin-derivative) inhibited acute leukemia growth in vivo and in vitro, at doses where normal human CD34+ hematopoietic stem-progenitor cell clonogenicity was essentially unaffected (Fox et al, Oncotarget 2016, PMID: 26771236). In our focused drug combination screen for drugs that synergize with ART838, the only BCL2 inhibitors in the screen library of 111 emerging antineoplastic compounds, navitoclax (ABT737) and venetoclax (ABT199; FDA-approved), were identified as 2 of the top 3 candidates. Synergies between ART838 and BCL2 inhibitors were validated in multiple acute leukemia cell lines and primary cases. This ART838-BCL2 inhibitor synergy may be due to reduced levels of MCL1 protein that we and others have observed in multiple acute leukemia cell lines and primary cases treated with artemisinins (Budhraja et al, Clin Cancer Res 2017, PMID: 28974549). Treatment of acute leukemia xenografts with the ART838 plus ABT199 combination reduced leukemia growth rates and prolonged survivals, compared to vehicle or either ART838 or ABT199 alone. To add to the efficacy of this ART838 plus ABT199 treatment regimen, we sought to rationally add a third low-toxicity active antileukemic agent. Sorafenib (SOR; FDA-approved) inhibits multiple kinases which may mediate its antileukemic activity, with the importance of the targets varying from case to case; e.g. FLT3 is an important target in many AMLs. In addition, several reports have found that SOR reduces MCL1 protein stability and translation through inhibition of the ERK and PI3K pathways (Wang et al, Clin Cancer Res 2016, PMID: 26459180; Huber et al, Leukemia 2011, PMID: 21293487). In all acute leukemia cell lines tested, we observed large reductions in MCL1 protein levels with SOR treatment, which may further rationalize the addition of SOR to our ART838 plus ABT199 antileukemic regimen. We had previously observed strong in vitro synergy between ART838 and SOR (PMID: 26771236). Treatment of acute leukemia xenografts with the ART838 plus SOR combination reduced leukemia xenograft growth rates and prolonged survivals, compared to single drugs. Mice bearing luciferase-labelled acute leukemia xenografts were treated (PO daily x5) with single drug or 2-drug or 3-drug combinations of ART838, ABT199, and SOR, each at their individual maximally tolerated doses. Treatment with this 3-drug combination caused rapid regression of luciferase-labelled MV4;11 AML xenografts (Fig 1A). The 5-day treatment cycles were repeated every other week, and mice receiving this 3-drug combination survived >4 times longer than vehicle-treated mice (Fig 1B). Mouse body weights were stable during treatment. Although myelosuppression is the human clinical dose-limiting toxicity of each of these 3 drugs, mouse blood cell counts during 3-drug combination treatment were in the normal range. Treatment of a luciferase-labelled primary AML leukemia xenograft with this 3-drug combination reduced leukemia growth more than the single drugs or 2-drug combinations (Fig 1C). Assessment of efficacy and pharmacokinetics-pharmacodynamics against diverse acute leukemia xenografts will test this combination of ART838, ABT199 plus SOR as a rational low-toxicity drug triad for treatment of acute leukemias and potentially other cancers.
