Abstract Text | The development of acquired resistance (AR) to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) of FGFR1 activation is currently not well understood. To gain a deeper insight into this matter in lung cancer, we used the FGFR1-amplified DMS114 cell line and generated multiple clones with AR to an FGFR1-TKI. We molecularly scrutinized the resistant cells, using whole-exome sequencing, RNA sequencing and global DNA methylation analysis. Our results show a de novo activation of AKT and ERK, and a reactivation of mTOR. Furthermore, the resistant cells exhibited strong upregulation and activation of MET, indicating crosstalk between the FGFR1 and MET axes. The resistant cells also underwent a global decrease in promoter hypermethylation of the CpG islands. Finally, we observed clonal expansion of a pre-existing change in AKT1, leading to S266L substitution, within the kinase domain of AKT. Our results demonstrate that AR to FGFR1-TKI involves deep molecular changes that promote the activation of MET and AKT, coupled with common gene expression and DNA methylation profiles. The expansion of a substitution at AKT1 was the only shared genetic change, and this may have contributed to the AR. |
