Abstract
The present disclosure provides methods for treating cancer comprising administering one or more therapeutic agents for manipulation of a target gene (e.g., protein kinase, membrane associated tyrosine/threonine 1 (PKMYT1)), wherein the cancer has a mutation in, an altered (e.g., increased or decreased) expression level and/or an altered activity of a biomarker. Provided herein are methods for identifying biomarkers of the disclosure that form a synthetic lethal pair with a target gene (e.g., PKMYT1).
Description
BACKGROUND

Despite advances, targeted cancer therapy has largely failed to produce durable complete responses and cures in large numbers of patients with cancer. Additionally, systemic treatments such as chemotherapies are often toxic and cause undesirable side effects for patients. The lack of specific biomarkers has also complicated development and application of targeted cancer treatments.


One approach for treating cancer cells includes identifying target genes and biomarkers which identify which cancer cells may be sensitive to alteration in the activity of those target genes. Recent advances in functional genomic screening have enabled identification of such target genes and biomarkers. However, for many human cancers, there remains limited suitable biomarkers that indicate the cancer will respond to a targeted cancer therapy.


SUMMARY

In some aspects, the present disclosure provides a method for treating a subject having or suspected of having a cancer, comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a Protein Kinase Membrane Associated Tyrosine/Threonine 1 (PKMYT1)-targeting therapeutic agent that alters the expression and/or activity of PKMYT1 in the subject, wherein the cancer is associated with cancerous tissue comprising a cell or a plurality of cells comprising (i) a difference in expression or activity level of one or more genes compared to a healthy control, and/or (ii) a mutation or deletion in one or more genes as compared to a healthy control, wherein the one or more genes is in a list selected by computational inference of cancer cell susceptibility to decrease in activity of PKMYT1, thereby treating the cancer in the subject.


In some or any of the foregoing or related embodiments, the one or more genes is validated as a synthetic lethal pair with PKMYT1 using a method described herein. In some embodiments, the method comprises a gene knockout screen. In some embodiments, the method comprises a combinatorial genetics en masse (CombiGEM) screen described herein. In some embodiments, the CombiGEM screen comprises measuring growth of a cancer cell line comprising a Cas nuclease and a dual guide RNA (gRNA) combination that induces a double knockout of PKMYT1 and the one or more genes, wherein the dual gRNA combination comprises a gRNA (e.g., a single gRNA (sgRNA)) targeting PKMYT1 and one or more gRNAs (e.g., sgRNAs) targeting the one or more genes. In some embodiments, a double knockout of PKMYT1 and the one or more genes that results in decreased growth of cancer cells as compared to a single gene knockout of PKMYT1 or the one or more genes is used to identify a synthetic lethal pair with PKMYT1.


In some or any of the foregoing or related embodiments, the cancerous tissue comprises a cell or a plurality of cells comprising a difference in expression or activity level of one or more genes compared to a healthy control. In some embodiments, the cancerous tissue comprises a cell or a plurality of cells comprising a mutation and/or deletion in one or more genes as compared to a healthy control. In some aspect, the cancerous tissue comprises a cell or a plurality of cells comprising a difference in expression or activity level of one or more genes compared to a healthy control and a mutation and/or deletion in the one or more genes as compared to a healthy control. In some embodiments, the difference in expression or activity level is a decrease in expression or activity level of the one or more genes compared to a healthy control. In some embodiments, the mutation is a loss of function mutation. In some embodiments, the presence or absence of the mutation and/or deletion is identified by an assay of cells derived from a cancerous tissue sample obtained from the subject. In some embodiments, the assay is a next generation sequencing-based assay or oligomer hybridization.


In some or any of the foregoing or related embodiments, the one or more genes are selected using a predictive algorithm, a machine learning algorithm, or both. In some embodiments, the difference in expression or activity level of the one or more genes has a prevalence of about 5% or higher in at least one cancer. In some embodiments, the mutation or deletion in the one or more genes has a prevalence of about 5% or higher in at least one cancer. In some embodiments, the difference in expression or activity level of the one or more genes has a prevalence of about 3% or higher in at least one cancer. In some embodiments, the mutation or deletion in the one or more genes has a prevalence of about 3% or higher in at least one cancer. In some embodiments, the difference in expression or activity level of the one or more genes has a prevalence of about 1% or higher in at least one cancer. In some embodiments, the mutation or deletion in the one or more genes has a prevalence of about 1% or higher in at least one cancer. In some embodiments, the cancer is selected from a cancer type listed in the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). In some embodiments, the cancer is selected from a leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma. In some embodiments, the cancer is a solid tumor malignancy of the prostate, uterus, colon, rectum, liver, bladder, ovaries, lung, breast, skin, stomach, esophagus, cervix, pancreas, testes, eye, mucosal tissue, adrenal gland, brain, thyroid, or thymus.


In some or any of the foregoing or related embodiments, the one or more genes is selected from any one or any combination (e.g., 2, 3, 4, 5 or more) of biomarkers listed in Table 3. In some embodiments, the one or more gene is selected from any one or any combination (e.g., 2, 3, 4, 5 or more) of biomarkers listed in Table 8.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS


FIG. 1 provides a schematic of an exemplary workflow for validating synthetic lethal pairs of the disclosure, based on a CombiGEM™ assay. Synthetic lethal pairs (gene A and gene B) are identified using computational methods described herein. A barcoded lentiviral library having constructs that encode a single guide RNA (sgRNA) having a target sequence directed to gene A (sgA) and/or gene B (sgB) is transfected into cells of a desired genetic background and barcode proliferation quantified by next generation sequencing is used to determine cell proliferation for a gene A and gene B double knockout relative to gene A knockout alone or gene B knockout alone. Such quantifications are used as a measure of synthetic lethality for a gene A/gene B pair, as further described herein.



FIG. 2 provides a schematic depicting signaling pathways for protein kinase membrane associated tyrosine/threonine 1 (“PKMYT1” or “Kinase MYT1”) and Protein Phosphatase 255 kDa regulatory subunit B alpha (“PPPR2A”).





DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Overview

The present disclosure is based, at least in part, on the identification of biomarkers present in one or more human cancers that form a synthetic lethal pair with PKMYT1, wherein an altered (e.g., increased or decreased) expression level and/or activity of the biomarker in a cancer renders it responsive to one or more therapeutic agents that targets PKMYT1 (e.g., a PKMYT1 inhibitory agent). As described herein, computational methods were developed to identify putative biomarkers that are deficient and/or mutated in one or more human cancers, that alone may not substantially impact viability of tumor cells, but when combined with a loss of function of PKMYT1 (e.g., via gene knockout or pharmacological inhibition), result in synthetic lethality to the tumor cells. Moreover, combinatorial screening technologies based on gene-editing (i.e., CRISPR/Cas9) are used to evaluate the predicted biomarkers for a synthetic lethal phenotype following double knockout of the biomarker and PKMYT1. For example, as demonstrated herein, methods of CRISPR-based combinatorial screening described in U.S. Pat. No. 9,315,806B2 were used to generate a double knockout library in a population of cells, wherein each cell comprised a knockout of a biomarker of the disclosure and a knockout of PKMYT1, wherein high throughput screening of cellular fitness provided a readout to validate a synthetic lethal phenotype for synthetic lethal pairs of the disclosure. Through experimental validation, biomarkers are identified that when deficient and/or mutated in a human cancer, combine, or cooperate with a therapeutic agent targeting PKMYT1 to cause tumor cell lethality. Without being bound by theory, an altered (e.g., increased or decreased) expression level and/or activity of one or more biomarkers of the disclosure in a cancer in a subject provides a predictive indicator that the cancer will respond or will likely respond to one or more therapeutic agents for modulating (e.g., decreasing) an expression level and/or activity of PKMYT1, such as one described herein.


Accordingly, the present disclosure provides methods for treating a cancer or cancerous cells thereof having a mutation in, an altered (e.g., increased or decreased) expression level of, and/or an altered activity of, a biomarker described herein, the method comprising administering one or more therapeutic agents targeting PKMYT1, wherein the one or more therapeutic agents results in an altered (e.g., increased or decreased) expression level and/or activity of PKMYT1. In some aspects, the biomarker is identified using a method described herein as forming a synthetic lethal pair with PKMYT1. In some aspects, a decrease in the expression level and/or activity of both the biomarker and PKMYT1 in a tumor cell results in lethality to the tumor cell. In some aspects, the presence of a mutation in the biomarker results in a loss of function (e.g., decreased expression level and/or activity of the biomarker). In some aspects, a decrease in the expression level and/or activity of both the biomarker and PKMYT1 in a tumor cell results in substantially reduced viability of the tumor cell.


In some aspects, the disclosure provides a method for identifying or selecting a subject with cancer to receive one or more therapeutic agents targeting PKMYT1, wherein the method comprises determining the expression level and/or activity of a biomarker described herein in a tumor sample obtained from the subject, wherein an altered (e.g., increased or decreased) expression level and/or activity of the biomarker relative to a reference tissue sample (e.g., a healthy tissue sample) indicates the subject will respond or will likely to respond to treatment with one or more therapeutic agents which modulate (e.g., decrease) the expression level and/or activity of PKMYT1. In some aspects, the tumor sample is a tumor biopsy sample (e.g., fresh or fixed tumor biopsy sample). In some aspects, the tumor sample is a blood sample comprising circulating tumor DNA. In some aspects, a decreased expression level and/or activity of the biomarker indicates the subject will respond or will likely respond following administration of one or more therapeutic agents that decreases the expression level and/or activity of PKMYT1. In some aspects, the one or more therapeutic agents is a therapeutic inhibitor of PKMYT1 (e.g., a pharmacological inhibitor or a gene-editing technology). In some embodiments, the method comprises providing a report predicting the responsiveness of the subject to the treatment based upon detection of an altered (e.g., increased or decreased) expression level and/or activity of the biomarker in the tumor sample obtained from the subject relative to a reference tissue sample (e.g., a healthy tissue sample). In some embodiments, the tumor sample is a tumor biopsy sample (e.g., fresh or fixed tumor biopsy sample). In some embodiments, the tumor sample is a blood sample comprising circulating tumor DNA. In some embodiments, a decreased expression level and/or activity of the biomarker indicates the subject will respond or will likely respond following administration of one or more therapeutic agents that decreases the expression level and/or activity of PKMYT1.


In some aspects, the disclosure provides a method for identifying or selecting a subject with cancer to receive one or more therapeutic agents targeting PKMYT1, wherein the method comprises determining the presence of a mutation in a biomarker described herein in a tumor sample obtained from the subject, wherein the presence of a mutation in the one or more biomarkers indicates the subject will respond or will likely to respond to treatment with one or more therapeutic agents that modulates (e.g., increases or decreases) the expression level and/or activity of PKMYT1. In some aspects, the tumor sample is a tumor biopsy sample (e.g., fresh or fixed tumor biopsy sample). In some aspects, the tumor sample is a blood sample comprising circulating tumor DNA. In some aspects, the presence of a mutation in the one or more biomarkers indicates the subject will respond or will likely respond following administration of one or more therapeutic agents that decreases the expression level and/or activity of PKMYT1.

In some aspects, the mutation in a biomarker is an inactivating mutation or loss of function mutation in a biomarker (such as any inactivating or loss of function mutations described herein or known in the art). In some aspects, the mutation in a biomarker results in a partial loss of function of the biomarker. In some aspects, the mutation in a biomarker results in a complete loss of function of the biomarker. In some aspects, the mutation in a biomarker results in a partial loss of expression and/or activity of the biomarker. In some aspects, the mutation in a biomarker results in a complete loss of expression and/or activity of the biomarker. In some aspects, the mutation is a null mutation (leading to the deletion of the gene encoding the biomarker).


In some aspects, the disclosure provides a method of identifying or selecting a patient to receive one or more therapeutic agents targeting PKMYT1, wherein the method comprises determining the expression level and/or activity of a panel of biomarkers described herein in a tumor sample obtained from the subject, wherein an altered (e.g., increased or decreased) expression level and/or activity of at least one biomarker of the panel relative to a reference tissue sample (e.g., a healthy tissue sample) indicates the subject will respond or will likely to respond to administration of one or more therapeutic agents that manipulates the expression level and/or activity of PKMYT1.

In some embodiments, the one or more therapeutic agents comprises a therapeutic inhibitor of a PKMYT1 polypeptide (e.g., a pharmacological inhibitor).


Synthetic Lethality Biomarkers of the Disclosure

In some embodiments, the disclosure provides biomarkers having altered (e.g., increased or decreased) expression level and/or activity in one or more human cancers, wherein the biomarker forms a synthetic lethal pair with at least one or more target genes. As used herein, a “target gene” refers to a gene or a transcriptional or translational product thereof whose expression level and/or activity in a cell is selectively modulated by a therapeutic agent (e.g., a gene editing technology or a pharmacological inhibitor). In some embodiments, the target gene is PKMYT1.


As used herein, a “synthetic lethal pair” refers to a pair of genes in a cell (e.g., a biomarker and a target gene), wherein an altered (e.g., increased or decreased) expression level and/or activity of both genes, or the transcriptional or translational products thereof, impairs viability of the cell (e.g., substantially reduced cell viability). In some embodiments, an altered (e.g., increased or decreased) expression level and/or activity of one gene of a synthetic lethal pair, but not both, has minimal effect on cell viability. In some embodiments, a cell comprising a decreased expression level and/or activity of both genes of the synthetic lethal pair, or transcriptional or translational products thereof, has substantially reduced viability. In some embodiments, the synthetic lethal pair comprises a biomarker described herein and a target gene. In some embodiments, the synthetic lethal pair comprises a biomarker described herein and PKMYT1.


As used herein, a “biomarker” refers to a gene, or a transcriptional or translational product thereof, whose expression level and/or activity can be detected in a tissue sample obtained from a subject having a disease or disorder (e.g., cancer), wherein an altered (e.g., increased or decreased) expression level and/or activity of the biomarker, e.g., relative to a reference tissue sample, functions as an indicator (e.g., diagnostic, predictive, and/or prognostic indicator). In some embodiments, the biomarker is a predictive indicator, wherein an altered expression level and/or activity of the biomarker in a diseased (e.g., cancerous) tissue sample indicates responsiveness of the disease (e.g., cancer) to a particular therapeutic intervention (e.g., administration of one or more therapeutic agents for modulation (e.g., decrease) of expression level and/or activity of PKMYT1). In some embodiments, the biomarker is a prognostic indicator, wherein an altered expression level and/or activity of the biomarker in a diseased (e.g., cancerous) tissue sample indicates an outcome of the disease or disease progression (e.g., cancer) regardless of therapeutic intervention. In some embodiments, the expression level and/or activity of the biomarker is detected in a tissue sample obtained from a subject having cancer. In some embodiments, an altered (e.g., increased or decreased) expression level and/or activity of the biomarker is a predictive indicator that the subject will respond or will likely respond to therapeutic manipulation of a target gene (e.g., PKMYT1). In some embodiments, a decreased expression level and/or activity of the biomarker is a predictive indicator that the subject will respond or will likely respond to a therapeutic inhibition of a target gene (e.g., PKMYT1).


As used herein, a “tissue sample” refers to a collection of similar cells obtained from a tissue of the subject, e.g., cancer tissue. In some embodiments, the tissue sample is a fresh, frozen, and/or preserved organ, biopsy, and/or aspirate obtained from the subject. In some embodiments, the tissue sample is blood or any blood constituent (e.g., plasma) collected from the subject. In some embodiments, the tissue sample is blood or any blood constituent (e.g., plasma) collected from the subject containing circulating DNA of the diseased tissue (e.g., circulating tumor DNA). In some embodiments, the tissue sample is a bodily fluid (e.g., cerebral spinal fluid, amniotic fluid, peritoneal fluid, or interstitial fluid) obtained from the subject. In some embodiments, the tissue sample is obtained from the diseased tissue or organ (e.g., a cancerous tissue or organ). In some embodiments, the tissue sample comprises non-natural compounds, e.g., preservatives, anticoagulants, buffers, fixatives, nutrients, antibiotics.


As used herein, the term “responsiveness” refers to the degree to which a diseased tissue (e.g., a tumor) in a subject undergoes a desirable therapeutic change upon exposure to an inhibitor of a target gene described herein (e.g., a PKMYT1 gene) or a transcriptional or translation product thereof (e.g., an RNA transcript encoding a PKMYT1 polypeptide or a PKMYT1 polypeptide). In some embodiments, the diseased tissue sample is a tumor and the desirable therapeutic outcome is reduced tumor burden, regression of tumor burden, and/or reduced growth of the tumor.


In some embodiments, an altered (e.g., increased or decreased) expression level of the biomarker in a tissue sample (e.g., cancer sample) obtained from a subject with cancer is a predictive indicator that the subject will respond or will likely respond to therapeutic manipulation of a target gene (e.g., PKMYT1). As used herein, an “altered expression level” refers to an increased or decreased expression level of the biomarker in a diseased tissue sample (e.g., cancer sample) obtained from the subject relative to a reference sample. In some embodiments, a decreased expression level of the biomarker in a diseased tissue sample (e.g., cancer sample) obtained from a subject with cancer is a predictive indicator that the subject will respond or will likely respond to therapeutic inhibition of a target gene (e.g., PKMYT1).


In some embodiments, an altered (e.g., increased or decreased) activity of the biomarker in a tissue sample (e.g., cancer sample) obtained from a subject with cancer is a predictive and/or prognostic indicator that the subject will respond or will likely respond to therapeutic manipulation of a target gene (e.g., PKMYT1). As used herein, an “altered activity level” refers to an increased or decreased activity of the biomarker in a diseased tissue sample (e.g., cancer sample) obtained from the subject relative to a reference sample. In some embodiments, a decreased activity of the biomarker in a tissue sample (e.g., cancer sample) obtained from a subject with cancer is a predictive indicator that the subject will respond or will likely respond to therapeutic inhibition of a target gene (e.g., PKMYT1).


As used herein, a “reference sample,” “reference cell,” “reference tissue,” “control sample,” “control cell,” or “control tissue” each refer to a sample, cell, tissue, standard, or level that is used for comparison to establish whether the expression level and/or activity of the biomarker in a subject having a disease (e.g., cancer) is altered (e.g., increased or decreased) relative to a subject not having the disease (e.g., a non-cancerous subject). For example, in some embodiments, a reference sample is obtained from a subject or subjects lacking the disease or disorder (e.g., a non-cancer subject or subjects). In some embodiments, the reference sample is a non-diseased tissue obtained from the subject having the disease (e.g., cancer).


In some embodiments, the disclosure provides a biomarker comprising one or more mutations (e.g., a loss of function mutation or inactivating mutation resulting in a decreased expression level and/or activity of the biomarker) in one or more human cancers, wherein the biomarker forms a synthetic lethal pair with a PKMYT1 target gene, or a transcriptional or translation product thereof (e.g., an RNA transcript encoding a PKMYT1 polypeptide or a PKMYT1 polypeptide). In some embodiments, the presence of one or more mutations in the biomarker in a diseased (e.g., cancerous) tissue sample indicates responsiveness of the disease (e.g., cancer) to a particular therapeutic intervention directed to the PKMYT1 gene, or a transcriptional or translation product thereof (e.g., administration of one or more therapeutic agents for modulating (e.g., decreasing) an expression level and/or activity of a PKMYT1 polypeptide). In some embodiments, the presence of one or more mutations in the biomarker is detected in a tissue sample obtained from a subject having cancer. In some embodiments, the presence of one or more mutations in the biomarker is a predictive indicator that the subject's cancer will respond or will likely respond to therapeutic manipulation of the PKMYT1 gene, or a transcriptional or translation product thereof. In some embodiments, the presence of one or more mutations in the biomarker that is a loss of function mutation (e.g., results in a decreased expression level and/or activity of the biomarker) is a predictive indicator that the subject's cancer will respond or will likely respond one or more therapeutic agents for modulating the PKMYT1 gene, or a transcriptional or translation product thereof (e.g., an RNA transcript encoding a PKMYT1 polypeptide or a PKMYT1 polypeptide).


In some embodiments, the expression level and/or activity of the biomarker is altered (e.g., increased or decreased) due to one or more mutations. In some embodiments, the one or more mutations occur in the gene encoding the biomarker (e.g., homozygous mutation). In some embodiments, the one or more mutations comprises a nonsynonymous mutation (which results in a change to the encoded protein sequence). In some embodiments, the nonsynonymous mutation occurs adjacent to or proximal to the 5′ end of the open reading frame of the gene encoding the biomarker. Without being bound by theory, a nonsynonymous mutation occurring adjacent to or proximal to the 5′ end of the open reading frame has increased likelihood of generating a loss of function or inactivation of the biomarker. In some embodiments, the one or more mutations (e.g., the nonsynonymous mutation) comprises a missense mutation (point mutation that results in a codon that encodes a different amino acid residue compared to the wild-type or non-mutated amino acid sequence). In some embodiments, the missense mutation occurs adjacent to or proximal to the 5′ end of the open reading frame of the gene encoding the biomarker. In some embodiments, the one or more mutations (e.g., the nonsynonymous mutation) comprises a nonsense mutation (point mutation in the gene sequence that results in a premature stop codon or nonsense codon on the transcribed mRNA that produces a translation product that is a truncated or incomplete). In some embodiments, the nonsense mutation occurs adjacent to or proximal to the 5′ end of the open reading frame of the gene encoding the biomarker. In some embodiments, the one or more mutations (e.g., nonsynonymous mutation) comprises a nonstop mutation (point mutation occurring within translational stop codons that result in continued and inappropriate translation of mRNA transcript into the 3′ untranslated region). In some embodiments, the one or more mutations (e.g., nonsynonymous mutation) comprises an insertion of one or more nucleotides. In some embodiments, the insertion results in a frameshift mutation (change in the open reading frame of the gene encoding the biomarker). In some embodiments, the one or more mutations (e.g., nonsynonymous mutation) comprises a deletion of one or more nucleotides. In some embodiments, the deletion results in a frameshift mutation.

In some embodiments, the one or more mutations comprises a nonsynonymous mutation (which results in a change to the encoded protein sequence). In some embodiments, the nonsynonymous mutation occurs adjacent to or proximal to the 5′ end of the open reading frame of the gene encoding the biomarker. Without being bound by theory, a nonsynonymous mutation occurring adjacent to or proximal to the 5′ end of the open reading frame has increased likelihood of generating a loss of function or inactivation of the biomarker.


In some embodiments, the one or more mutations (e.g., the nonsynonymous mutation) comprises a missense mutation (point mutation that results in a codon that encodes a different amino acid residue compared to the wild-type or non-mutated amino acid sequence). In some embodiments, the missense mutation occurs adjacent to or proximal to the 5′ end of the open reading frame of the gene encoding the biomarker.


In some embodiments, the one or more mutations (e.g., the nonsynonymous mutation) comprises a nonsense mutation (point mutation in the gene sequence that results in a premature stop codon or nonsense codon on the transcribed mRNA that produces a translation product that is a truncated or incomplete). In some embodiments, the nonsense mutation occurs adjacent to or proximal to the 5′ end of the open reading frame of the gene encoding the biomarker.

In some embodiments, the expression level and/or activity of the biomarker is altered (e.g., increased or decreased) due to one or more deficiency in the biomarker. In some embodiments, the one or more deficiencies are selected from multiple copies of the same gene, hypermethylation, deep deletion, mutation in the gene encoding the biomarker, or a combination thereof.


In some embodiments, the expression level and/or activity of the biomarker is decreased by a mutation in the gene encoding the biomarker. In some embodiments, the mutation is a deletion.


In some embodiments, the presence of a mutation and/or a deficiency in the biomarker is measured in a tissue sample (e.g., cancer sample) obtained from the subject using a method of mutational detection analysis (e.g., next generation sequencing). In some embodiments, the tissue sample is a tumor biopsy sample (e.g., fresh or fixed tumor biopsy sample). In some embodiments, the tissue sample is a blood sample comprising circulating tumor DNA.


In some embodiments, the disclosure provides a biomarker comprising a mutation (e.g., loss of function mutation resulting in a decreased expression level and/or activity of the biomarker) in one or more human cancers, wherein the biomarker forms a synthetic lethal pair with at least one or more target genes. In some embodiments, the presence of a mutation in the biomarker in a diseased (e.g., cancerous) tissue sample indicates responsiveness of the disease (e.g., cancer) to a particular therapeutic intervention (e.g., administration of one or more therapeutic agents for modulation (e.g., decrease) of expression level and/or activity of PKMYT1). In some embodiments, the presence of a mutation in the biomarker is detected in a tissue sample obtained from a subject having cancer. In some embodiments, the presence of a mutation in the biomarker is a predictive indicator that the subject's cancer will respond or will likely respond to therapeutic manipulation of a target gene (e.g., PKMYT1). In some embodiments, the presence of a mutation in the biomarker that results in a loss of function of the biomarker (e.g., decreased expression level and/or activity of the biomarker) is a predictive indicator that the subject's cancer will respond or will likely respond to a therapeutic inhibition of a target gene (e.g., PKMYT1).


In some embodiments, the mutation comprises a deletion of the gene encoding the biomarker (e.g., homozygous deletion). In some embodiments, the mutation is a missense mutation. In some embodiments, the missense mutation results in a gene predicted to encode a nonfunctional protein, optionally wherein the prediction is performed using a SIFT algorithm. In some embodiments, the mutation is a missense mutation resulting in a gene encoding a truncated protein. In some embodiments, the mutation is a nonsense mutation resulting in a gene encoding a truncated protein. In some embodiments, the one or more mutations is a duplication, a deletion, or an insertion. In some embodiments, the duplication, deletion, or insertion results in a frameshift mutation. In some embodiments, the mutation is a splice site mutation. In some embodiments, the mutation results in a loss of function of the biomarker (e.g., decreased expression level and/or activity of the biomarker). In some embodiments, the presence of a mutation in the biomarker is measured in a tissue sample (e.g., cancer sample) obtained from the subject using a method of mutational detection analysis (e.g., next generation sequencing). In some embodiments, the tissue sample is a tumor biopsy sample (e.g., fresh or fixed tumor biopsy sample). In some embodiments, the tissue sample is a blood sample comprising circulating tumor DNA.


In some embodiments, the one or more deficiencies are prevalent in one or more human cancers. As used herein, “prevalent” refers to the frequency in which an altered (e.g., increased or decreased) expression level and/or activity of a biomarker relative to a reference sample occurs in a demographic of subjects affected by a particular type of cancer (e.g., colon adenocarcinoma). In some embodiments, the one or more deficiencies is prevalent (e.g., frequency greater than about 1%, about 2%, about 3%, about 4%, about 5%, about 10%, about 15%, about 20%, about 25%, about 30%, about 35%, about 40%, about 45%, or about 50%) in one or more human cancers selected from acute myeloid leukemia (LAML), adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC), bladder urothelial carcinoma (BLCA), brain lower grade glioma (LGG), breast invasive carcinoma (BRCA), cervical squamous cell carcinoma and endocervical adenocarcinoma (CESC), cholangiocarcinoma (CHOL), chronic myelogenous leukemia (LCML), colon adenocarcinoma (COAD), esophageal carcinoma (ESCA), glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), kidney chromophobe (KICH), kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), kidney renal papillary cell carcinoma (KIRP), liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC), lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC), lymphoid neoplasm diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBC), mesothelioma (MESO), ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma (OV), pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD), pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PCPG), prostate adenocarcinoma (PRAD), rectum adenocarcinoma (READ), sarcoma (SARC), skin cutaneous melanoma (SKCM), testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT), thymoma (THYM), thyroid carcinoma (THCA), uterine carcinosarcoma (UCS), uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC), and uveal melanoma (UVM).


In some embodiments, the presence of such genetic mutations is identified by assaying tissue-derived cells obtained from a subject. For example, suitable assays for use in the present disclosure include those involving genomic DNA, mRNA, or cDNA. For a nucleic acid-based detection method, genomic DNA is first obtained (using any standard technique) from cells (e.g., ovarian cells) of a subject to be tested. If appropriate, cDNA can be prepared or mRNA can be obtained. In some instances, nucleic acids can be amplified by any known nucleic acid amplification technique (e.g., polymerase chain reaction) to a sufficient quantity and purity, and further analyzed to detect mutations. For example, genomic DNA can be isolated from a sample, and all exonic sequences, and the intron/exon junction regions including the regions required for exon/intron splicing, can be amplified into one or more amplicons and further analyzed for the presence or absence of mutations. In some instances, the assay is a next generation sequencing-based assay, such as FoundationOne®CDx™ or Tempus xT™. In some embodiments, the presence of a mutation in a biomarker of the disclosure is detected using any method of mutational detection analysis that is known in the art. Non-limiting exemplary methods of mutational detection analysis include fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), PCR, RT-PCR, gel electrophoresis, DNA microarray, DNA sequencing (e.g., via next generation sequencing or Sanger sequencing), multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification, fluorescent melting curve analysis, and pyrosequencing.


Exemplary Synthetic Lethality Biomarkers

In some embodiments, the disclosure provides one or more biomarkers having an altered expression level and/or activity in one or more human cancers, wherein the one or more biomarkers each form a synthetic lethal pair with PKMYT1. In some embodiments, the disclosure provides one or more biomarkers having a loss of function in one or more human cancers, wherein the one or more biomarkers each form a synthetic lethal pair with PKMYT1. In some embodiments, the disclosure provides one or more biomarkers comprising a mutation in one or more human cancers, wherein the one or more biomarkers each form a synthetic lethal pair with PKMYT1. In some embodiments, the disclosure provides one or more biomarkers that are mutated in one or more human cancers, wherein the one or more biomarkers each form a synthetic lethal pair with PKMYT1.


In some embodiments, an altered (e.g., increased or decreased) expression level of the biomarker in a cancer tissue obtained from a subject is a predictive indicator that the subject will or will likely respond to therapeutic manipulation of PKMYT1. In some embodiments, a decreased expression level of the biomarker in a cancer tissue obtained from a subject is a predictive indicator the subject will or will likely respond to therapeutic inhibition of PKMYT1. In some embodiments, a mutation in the biomarker (e.g., a loss of function mutation resulting in a decreased expression level and/or activity of the biomarker) in a cancer tissue obtained from a subject is a predictive indicator that the subject will or will likely respond to therapeutic manipulation of PKMYT1. In some embodiments, the response comprises decreased tumor progression. In some embodiments, the response comprises tumor shrinkage. In some embodiments, the response comprises reduced risk of metastasis.


In some embodiments, the biomarker and PKMYT1 form a synthetic lethal pair, such that inhibition or decreased expression level and/or activity of both the biomarker and PKMYT1 is lethal to the cell (e.g., results in apoptosis, necrosis, inhibition of proliferation, or substantially reduced viability), whereas the inhibition or decreased expression level and/or activity of either gene alone has minimal or no effect on the viability of the cell (e.g., is not sufficient to kill the cell). In some embodiments, a cell or a population of cells having an altered (e.g., decreased or diminished) expression level and/or activity of (i) a biomarker described herein, or (ii) PKMYT1 results in a reduction in viability of the cell or population of cells, but a combination of (i) and (ii) results in a greater reduction in viability of the cell or the population of cells. In some embodiments, a population of cells (e.g., a population of cancer cells) comprising a decreased expression level and/or activity of (i) a biomarker described herein, and (ii) PKMYT1 has a proportion of dead or dying cells that is greater than the sum proportion of the dead or dying cells in a first cell population comprising (i) and a second cell population comprising (ii).


In some embodiments, the biomarker is a protein that is an upstream agonist or antagonist PKMYT1. In some embodiments, PKMYT1 is an upstream agonist or antagonist of the biomarker. In some embodiments, the biomarker is an agonist or antagonist of another gene (or encoded protein) that regulates PKMYT1. In some embodiments, the biomarker and PKMYT1 regulate a subset of the same downstream genes or signaling components. For example, in some embodiments, the biomarker regulates a plurality of downstream genes or signaling components, a subset of which are also regulated by PKMYT1. In some embodiments, the downstream genes or signaling components may affect a cancer-related process, e.g., HIPPO pathway, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, P13K pathway, DNA replication, cell migration, cell metastasis, etc. Alternatively or in addition to, the biomarker and PKMYT1 may be regulated by a subset of the same genes.


In some embodiments, deficiency in the expression and/or activity level of the biomarker (e.g., via a mutation and/or deletion of the biomarker) enhances modulation (e.g., decrease) of an expression level and/or activity of PKMYT1 by one or more therapeutic agents described herein. In some embodiments, a deficiency in the expression level and/or activity of the biomarker (e.g., via a mutation and/or deletion of the biomarker) is enhanced by an altered (e.g., increased or decreased) expression level and/or activity of PKMYT1 using a therapeutic agent described herein


PKMYT1 interacts with or regulates CDK1 and thereby affects cell cycle progression. Without being bound by theory, inhibition of PKMYT1 results in uncontrolled cell cycle progression, wherein the presence of damaged DNA will cause cell lethality due to mitotic catastrophe. Accordingly, in some embodiments, a biomarker of the disclosure is involved in regulating DNA damage repair (e.g., as a component or a subunit of a component in a cellular DNA repair pathway). In some embodiments, an altered (e.g., increased or decreased) expression and/or activity of a biomarker that is involved in regulating DNA damage repair (e.g., as a component or a subunit of a component in a cellular DNA repair pathway) results in accumulated damaged DNA. Without being bound by theory, a biomarker that is involved in regulating DNA damage repair (e.g., as a component or a subunit of a component in a cellular DNA repair pathway) is a synthetic lethal pair with PKMYT1 due to accumulation of damaged DNA and uncontrolled cell cycle progression that results in loss of cell viability.

In some embodiments, a biomarker of the disclosure is one identified as forming a synthetic lethal pair with PKMYT1 using a method described herein. In some embodiments, a biomarker of the disclosure is any one or any combination (e.g., 2, 3, 4, 5 or more) of the biomarkers listed in Table 3. In some embodiments, a synthetic lethal pair of the disclosure comprises a biomarker selected from Table 3. In some embodiments, a synthetic lethal pair of the disclosure comprises a biomarker selected from Table 3 and PKMYT1. In some embodiments, a biomarker of the disclosure is any one or any combination (e.g., 2, 3, 4, 5 or more) of the biomarkers listed in Table 8. In some embodiments, a synthetic lethal pair of the disclosure comprises a biomarker selected from Table 8. In some embodiments, a synthetic lethal pair of the disclosure comprises a biomarker selected from Table 8 and PKMYT1. In some embodiments, a biomarker of the disclosure is any one or any combination (e.g., 2, 3, 4, 5 or more) of the biomarkers listed in Table 9. In some embodiments, a synthetic lethal pair of the disclosure comprises a biomarker selected from Table 9. In some embodiments, a synthetic lethal pair of the disclosure comprises a biomarker selected from Table 9 and PKMYT1.


Table 3 provides biomarkers that are human genes identified as synthetic lethal pairs with PKMYT1 using a computational method described herein. Table 3 further provides a gene identification number for each human gene that the skilled artisan may use to identify the gene in the National Library of Medicine National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) Gene Database (accessible via the world wide web: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/). The Gene Database is a searchable database of genes that provides nomenclature, chromosomal localization, gene products, attributes of the gene, associated markers, phenotypes, interactions, links to citations, sequence information, information regarding sequence variants, gene maps, expression reports, homologs, protein domain content, and access to external databases. As is understood by the skilled artisan, the nucleotide sequence corresponding to each gene in Table 3 is accessed by entering the corresponding Gene ID into the NCBI Gene Database and selecting the genomic sequence in the desired format computer-readable formats (e.g., FASTA).

Methods of Identifying Synthetic Lethal Pairs

The present disclosure provides methods for identifying a biomarker that forms a synthetic lethal pair with a target gene (e.g., PKMYT1). In some embodiments, the biomarker has altered (e.g., increased or decreased) expression level and/or activity in one or more human cancers, e.g., due to one or more mutations in the gene encoding the biomarker. In some embodiments, the presence of a mutated biomarker in a human cancer is an indicator (e.g., predictive indicator) that the cancer will respond or will likely respond to one or more therapeutic agents targeting the target gene (e.g., one or more therapeutic agents targeting PKMYT1), such as one or more therapeutic agents that inhibit the target gene or a transcriptional or translational product thereof.


Computational Approaches

In some embodiments, the disclosure provides one or more biomarkers identified using a computational approach described herein. In some embodiments, one or more biomarkers having altered expression level and/or activity in one or more human cancers that potentially form a synthetic lethal pair with a target gene (e.g., PKMYT1) are identified based on the literature and public data, and candidates identified by, for example, criteria including multi-omics analysis, evaluation of tumor type (e.g., primary tumor), experimental data in relevant cell lines, target tractability, biomarker prevalence, etc.


In some embodiments, a predictive algorithm is applied to a dataset compiled from functional gene interference screens to identify a biomarker of the disclosure. Functional genomic screens based on RNA interference technologies (e.g., short hairpin (shRNA)-based technology) and/or gene-editing technologies (e.g., CRISPR/Cas technology) enable gene-knockout studies to be performed across many different genetic contexts (see, e.g., Huang, et al (2020) Nat. Rev. Drug Disc. 19:23). Several public databases provide catalogs of such data, including, for example, Project DRIVE (see, e.g., McDonald, et al (2017) Cell 170:577); Project Achilles (see, e.g., word wide web: depmap.org/portal/achilles); and Project Score (see, e.g., Behan, et al (2019) Nature 568:511). Predictive algorithms are applied to such large datasets to identify for correlations between target gene silencing, functional outcome (e.g., lethality), and genetic background to identify putative synthetic lethal interactions in human cancer cells. In some embodiments, a predictive algorithm of the disclosure comprises one or more prediction criteria to predict a biomarker that will form a synthetic lethal pair with PKMYT1.


In some embodiments, a predictive algorithm of the disclosure comprises one or more prediction criteria to predict a biomarker that will form a synthetic lethal pair with a target gene described herein (e.g., PKYMT1). In some embodiments, the predictive algorithm comprises performing a statistical test (e.g., a chi-squared test) to determine the association of a loss of function of the biomarker occurring in at least one cell line (e.g., 1, 2, 3, 4 or more cell lines) and sensitivity to perturbation in the target gene (e.g., PKYMT1). In some embodiments, the predictive algorithm comprises performing a statistical test (e.g., a chi-squared test) to determine the association of a loss of function of the biomarker occurring in at least four cell lines and sensitivity to perturbation in the target gene (e.g., PKYMT1). In some embodiments, the one or more prediction criteria comprises a p value determined by the statistical test, wherein a p value of less than about 0.001, about 0.005, or about 0.01 is used to predict a biomarker that forms a synthetic lethal interaction with the target gene (e.g., PKYMT1). In some embodiments, the one or more prediction criteria comprises a p value determined by the statistical test, wherein a p value of less than about 0.001 is used to predict a biomarker that forms a synthetic lethal interaction with the target gene (e.g., PKYMT1). In some embodiments, the predictive algorithm comprises calculating the ratio of (a) the odds of sensitivity to perturbation of the target gene (e.g., PKYMT1) in at least one cell line with a loss of function of the biomarker (e.g., 1, 2, 3, 4 or more cell lines with a loss of function of the biomarker) to (b) the odds of sensitivity to perturbation of the target gene (e.g., PKYMT1) in at least one cell line comprising a wild-type biomarker (e.g., 1, 2, 3, 4, or more cell lines comprising a wild-type biomarker). In some embodiments, the predictive algorithm comprises calculating the ratio of (a) the odds of sensitivity to perturbation of the target gene (e.g., PKYMT1) in at least four cell lines with a loss of function of the biomarker to (b) the odds of sensitivity to perturbation of the target gene (e.g., PKYMT1) in at least four cell lines comprising a wild-type biomarker. In some embodiments, a ratio of greater than about 1.5, about 1.6, about 1.7, about 1.8, about 1.9, about 2.0, about 2.1, about 2.2., about 2.3, about 2.4, or about 2.5 is used to predict a biomarker that forms a synthetic lethal interaction with the target gene (e.g., PKYMT1). In some embodiments, a ratio of greater than about 2 is used to predict a biomarker that forms a synthetic lethal interaction with the target gene (e.g., PKYMT1).


In some embodiments, a machine learning approach is used in conjunction with a database of known synthetic lethal gene interactions to identify a biomarker of the disclosure. In some embodiments, the database comprises comprehensive and rigorously curated information on synthetic lethal interactions collected from publications and/or experimental datasets. In some embodiments, the machine learning algorithm considers one or more different features of the interacting genes based on a genetic interaction database. In some embodiments, the one or more different features are intended to capture the genomics, network and functional relationships between the putative synthetic lethal gene pairs. In some embodiments, a machine learning approach comprises one or more prediction criteria to predict a biomarker that will form a synthetic lethal pair with a target gene described herein (e.g., PKYMT1). In some embodiments, the one or more prediction criteria is a prediction score. In some embodiments, a prediction score of greater than about 0.3 (e.g., about 0.3, about 0.35, about 0.4, about 0.45, about 0.5, about 0.55, or about 0.6) is used to predict a biomarker that forms a synthetic lethal interaction with the target gene (e.g., PKYMT1).


In some embodiments, a biomarker of the disclosure is identified according to a predictive algorithm and/or machine learning algorithm described herein and comprises an inactivating mutation in a gene in a plurality of subjects having a cancer. In some embodiments, the cancer is any one or any combination of human cancers listed in the TCGA (Cancer Genome Atlas Program; see world wide web: cancer.gov/tcga). In some embodiments, the cancer is any one or any combination of colorectal adenocarcinoma (COAD), breast invasive carcinoma (BRCA), lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC), ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma (OV), and liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC). In some embodiments, the inactivating mutation is a homozygous deletion of a gene. In some embodiments, the inactivating mutation is a missense mutation in a gene predicted to encode a nonfunctional protein. In some embodiments, the inactivating mutation is a missense mutation in a gene predicted to encode a truncated protein. In some embodiments, the inactivating mutation occurs in at least about 1%, about 1.5%, about 2%, about 2.5%, about 3%, about 3.5%, about 4%, about 4.5%, or about 5% subjects having the cancer (e.g., any one or any combination of human cancers listed in the TCGA). In some embodiments, the inactivating mutation occurs in more than about 5% of subjects having the cancer (e.g., any one or any combination of human cancers listed in the TCGA). In some embodiments, the inactivating mutation occurs in at least about 5%, about 6%, about 7%, about 8%, about 9%, about 10%, about 12%, about 15%, or about 20% subjects having the cancer (e.g., any one or any combination of human cancers listed in the TCGA).


In some embodiments, a biomarker of the disclosure (e.g., that forms a synthetic lethal pair with PKMYT1) is identified by one or more computational algorithms described herein. In some embodiments, the biomarker is identified by a predictive algorithm applied to an experimental dataset described herein (e.g., a dataset based on functional genomic screening). In some embodiments, the biomarker is identified by a machine learning algorithm. In some embodiments, the biomarker is identified by a predictive algorithm and a machine learning algorithm. In some embodiments, the predictive algorithm comprises at least one prediction criteria selected from (i) a p value less than about 0.001, wherein the p value is determined by a statistical test (e.g., a chi-squared test) of sensitivity to perturbation of a target gene (e.g., PKYMT1) in at least four or more cell lines having a loss of function of the biomarker; and (ii) an odds ratio of greater than about 2, wherein the odds ratio is a ratio of (a) the sensitivity to perturbation of the target gene (e.g., PKYMT1) in at least four or more cell lines having a loss of function of the biomarker to (b) the odds of sensitivity to perturbation of the target gene (e.g., PKYMT1) in at least four or more cell lines comprising a wild-type biomarker.

Methods of Validating Synthetic Lethal Pairs
High Throughput Genetic Screening

In some embodiments, a biomarker that forms a potential synthetic lethal pair with a target gene (e.g., PKMYT1) identified by one or more computational approaches described herein is further validated using one or more experimental approaches. In some embodiments, the experimental approach comprises a combinatorial genetics en masse (CombiGEM)-CRISPR screen to validate synthetic lethal pairs. Methods of performing CombiGEM screening are described in the art (see, e.g., Wong, et al. (2016) PNAS 113:2544; U.S. Pat. No. 9,315,806, incorporated herein by reference) and further described in the Examples section. In some embodiments, the CombiGEM screen comprises a workflow as depicted schematically in FIG. 1, wherein expression of a first gene encoding the biomarker identified by the one or more computational approaches and a second gene encoding the target gene (e.g., PKMYT1) are knocked down, individually or in combination, in a population of cancer cells using CRISPR/Cas gene editing, and the effect on proliferation is determined.


In some embodiments, a population of cancer cells is contacted with an expression vector (e.g., lentiviral expression vector) comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding a first gRNA sequence, a second gRNA sequence, a first barcode sequence, and a second barcode sequence. In some embodiments, the first gRNA is directed to a gene encoding the biomarker, wherein the first gRNA comprises a spacer sequence having sequence homology to a target sequence in the gene encoding the biomarker. In some embodiments, the second gRNA is directed to the target genet (e.g., PKMYT1), wherein the second gRNA comprises a spacer sequence having sequence homology to a target sequence in the target gene (e.g., PKMYT1). In some embodiments, the expression vectors is introduced to the population of cancer cells in combination with a site-directed endonuclease (e.g., Cas9), or a nucleic acid encoding a site-directed endonuclease, wherein the first gRNA combines with the site-directed endonuclease to introduce a first genomic cleavage proximal to the target sequences in the gene encoding the biomarker, wherein the second gRNA combines with the site-directed endonuclease to introduce a second genomic cleavage proximal to the target sequence in the target gene (e.g., PKMYT1), and wherein repair of the first and second genomic cleavage by an endogenous DNA repair pathway introduces a mutation (e.g., insertion or deletion) at the sites of genomic cleavage, thereby disrupting expression of the gene encoding the biomarker and the target gene (e.g., PKMYT1). In some embodiments, the first barcode sequence and the second barcode sequence are used to measure integration of the expression vector into genomic DNA using high throughput sequencing (e.g., next generation sequencing).


In some embodiments, a population of cells is contacted with a control expression vector (e.g., lentiviral expression vector). For example, in some embodiments, to determine if a predicted gene pair is synthetically lethal, it is necessary to monitor the effect of disrupting either gene of the predicted synthetic lethal pair individually as well as the combination of the gene pair. Moreover, in some embodiments, it is necessary to monitor the effect of a negative control, in which a control expression vector comprises a nucleic acids sequence encoding an ineffective gRNA e.g., non-specific gRNA, as a “non-cutting” control for one or both genes. In some embodiments, a control expression vector is a vehicle control. In some embodiments, a control expression vector is a positive control. For example, in some embodiments, an expression vector comprises a nucleic acids sequence encoding a gRNA directed to a polymerase (e.g., an RNA polymerase, e.g., POLR2D), which can demonstrate that knockout (and the delivery mechanisms of doing so) of a gene that is essential for cell viability or proliferation results in lethality. In another example of a positive control, knockout of two genes known to be a synthetic lethal pair (e.g., methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP) and protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMTS)) may be performed, e.g., using expression vectors comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding a pair of gRNAs directed to each of the known synthetic lethal genes.


In some embodiments, the expression vector library is contacted with at least one population of cancer cells. In some embodiments, the expression vector library is contacted with two or more populations of cancer cells. In some embodiments, the population of cancer cells comprise cells from a primary source (e.g., isolated from a tumor or cancer) or a cell line. In some embodiments, the population of cancer cells belongs to a lineage selected from acute myeloid leukemia (LAML), adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC), bladder urothelial carcinoma (BLCA), brain lower grade glioma (LGG), breast invasive carcinoma (BRCA), cervical squamous cell carcinoma and endocervical adenocarcinoma (CESC), cholangiocarcinoma (CHOL), chronic myelogenous leukemia (LCML), colon adenocarcinoma (COAD), esophageal carcinoma (ESCA), glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), kidney chromophobe (KICH), kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), kidney renal papillary cell carcinoma (KIRP), liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC), lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC), lymphoid neoplasm diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBC), mesothelioma (MESO), ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma (OV), pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD), pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PCPG), prostate adenocarcinoma (PRAD), rectum adenocarcinoma (READ), sarcoma (SARC), skin cutaneous melanoma (SKCM), testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT), thymoma (THYM), thyroid carcinoma (THCA), uterine carcinosarcoma (UCS), uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC), and uveal melanoma (UVM).

In some embodiments, the population of cancer cells comprise Huhl cancer cells. In some embodiments, the population of cancer cells comprises Hep3B cancer cells. In some embodiments, the population of cancer cells comprise ovarian adenocarcinoma cancer cells. In some embodiments, the population of cancer cells comprise OVCAR cancer cells. In some embodiments, the population of cancer cells comprise PA1 cancer cells.


In some embodiments, the expression vectors are introduced to the population of cancer cells via transfection (e.g., using a liposome or other nanoparticle) or transduction (e.g., using a virus). In some embodiments, the site-directed endonuclease (e.g., Cas9), or a nucleic acid encoding the site-directed endonuclease (e.g., mRNA or plasmid encoding the site-directed endonuclease or Cas9), is introduced to the population of cancer cells via transfection (e.g., using a liposome or other nanoparticle) or transduction (e.g., using a virus). In some embodiments, the population of cancer cells is engineered to stably express the site-directed endonuclease. In some embodiments, the population of cancer cells is contacted with the expression vectors and/or site-directed endonuclease for a duration that is sufficient to allow for development of synthetic lethal phenotypes. In some embodiments, the contacting is performed for a duration of at least 5-30 days. In some embodiments, the contacting is performed for a duration that is about 7 days, about 14 days, about 21 days, about 28 days, or about 35 days. In some embodiments, proliferation or viability of the population of cancer cells is monitored over the duration. In some embodiments, the viability of the population of cancer cells is normalized or compared to a population of cancer cells contacted with a negative control expression vector or control population of cancer cells that was not treated. Methods of measuring cell viability are known in the art. In some embodiments, the method comprises a PrestoBlue viability assay.


In some embodiments, genomic DNA is harvested from the population of cells and next-generation sequencing is performed to establish the abundance of each of the possible pairs of gRNAs. In some embodiments, segments of the genomic DNA comprising the first barcode sequence and/or the second barcode sequence are amplified (e.g., via PCR) and sequenced (e.g., via NGS). In some embodiments, the number of reads of the first barcode sequence and/or the second barcode sequence are normalized, e.g., per 106 reads of each genomic DNA sample. In some embodiments, the fold change in normalized reads of the first barcode sequence and/or the second barcode sequence is determined across the duration of the contacting compared to reads of the first barcode sequence and/or the second barcode sequence in the library. In some embodiments, the fold change is log transformed to provide a log fold change (LFC), e.g., logy fold change. In some embodiments, an LFC of less than zero is for specific expression vector comprising a first and second gRNAs indicates that the combination of gene knockouts induced by the first and second gRNAs has a deleterious effect on the ability of the cells to proliferate.


In some embodiments, the LFC determined for (i) a cell population administered an expression vector comprising the first gRNA and the second gRNA is compared to (ii) the LFC determined for a first control cell population contacted with an expression vector comprising the first gRNA and (iii) the LFC determined for a control cell population contacted with a library of expression vectors comprising the second gRNA. In some embodiments, the LFC for (i), (ii), and (iii) are used to determine a gene interaction score. As used herein, a “gene interaction score” refers to the difference in the observed LFC for the double knockout cell population of (i) as compared to an expected LFC. As used herein, the “expected LFC” refers to an LFC that is the sum of the LFC for the single knockout population of (ii) and the single knockout population of (iii).

Exemplary Methods of Validating Synthetic Lethal Pairs

In some embodiments, the biomarkers of the disclosure are validated as a synthetic lethal pair with PKMYT1 using a CombiGEM screen. In some embodiments, the CombiGEM screen comprises contacting a population of cancer cells (e.g., a population of cancer cells comprising HT29 cells or LS180 cells) with an expression vector comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding from 5′ to 3′: a first gRNA targeting a biomarker gene, a second gRNA targeting PKMYT1, a first barcode sequence, and a second barcode sequence. In some embodiments, the first gRNA comprises a spacer sequence having sequence homology to a target sequence in a gene encoding a biomarker (e.g., a biomarker identified via a computational approach as a putative synthetic lethal pair with PKMYT1). In some embodiments, the second gRNA comprises a spacer sequence having sequence homology to a target sequence in the PKMYT1 gene. In some embodiments, the population of cells comprises a site-directed endonuclease (e.g., Cas9). In some embodiments, the first gRNA combined with the site-directed endonuclease introduces a first genomic cleavage at the target sequence in the gene encoding the biomarker; and the second gRNA combined with the site-directed endonuclease introduces a second genomic cleavage at the target sequence in the PKMYT1 gene; wherein the repair of the first and second genomic cleavage by an endogenous DNA repair pathway introduces a deleterious mutation in the gene encoding the biomarker and the PKMYT1 gene.


In some embodiments, the population of cancer cells (e.g., a population of cancer cells comprising HT29 cells or LS180 cells) is contacted with the expression vector for a duration of at least 15-30 days. In some embodiments, the genomic DNA is harvested from the population of cells, and the number of reads of the first and second DNA barcode sequences is quantified to determine the LFC. In some embodiments, the LFC is determined for (i) a population of cells contacted with an expression vector encoding the first and second gRNAs, (ii) a first control population of cells contacted with an expression vector encoding the first gRNA targeting a biomarker gene, and (iii) a second control population of cells contacted with an expression vector encoding the second gRNA targeting PKMYT1. In some embodiments, the genetic interaction score is quantified as the observed LFC for (i) minus the expected LFC, wherein the expected LFC is the sum of the LFC for (ii) and (iii).

Therapeutic Agents

In some embodiments, the disclosure provides a method of treating cancer in a subject, comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of one or more therapeutic agents that alter (e.g., increase or decrease) the expression and/or activity of PKMYT1.


In some embodiments, the one or more therapeutic agent used to alter (e.g., decrease or increase) expression level and/or activity of PKMYT1 comprises a small molecule (e.g., a molecule having a molecular weight of less than 900 Daltons), a protein, an intrabody, a peptide, a ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecule, a deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) construct, or a combination thereof (e.g., a protein-nucleic acid complex).


In some embodiments, the one or more therapeutic agents comprises a protein-nucleic acid complex, e.g., an endonuclease complex and a nucleic acid construct. In some cases, the endonuclease complex comprises a clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) associated (Cas) protein or variant thereof (e.g., an engineered variant) or a nucleic acid encoding the Cas protein or variant thereof. In some embodiments, the endonuclease complex comprises a clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) associated (Cas) protein or variant thereof (e.g., an engineered variant). In some embodiments, the nucleic construct is co-administered with the endonuclease complex. In some embodiments, the nucleic acid comprises an endonuclease gene. In some embodiments, the nucleic acid comprises a gene encoding a Cas protein or variant thereof (e.g., an engineered variant). In some embodiments, the nucleic acid is transcribed and translated by the cell using the cell's own machinery (e.g., polymerases, ribosomes, etc.) once the nucleic acid is introduced or delivered to a cell (e.g., cancer cell).


In some embodiments, the endonuclease complex comprises an endonuclease, e.g., a Cas protein, or other nucleic acid-interacting enzyme (e.g., ligase, helicase, reverse transcriptase, transcriptase, polymerase, etc.). In some embodiments, the Cas protein comprises any Cas type (e.g., Cas I, Cas IA, Cas IB, Cas IC, Cas ID, Cas IE, Cas IF, Cas IU, Cas III, Cas IIIA, Cas IIIB, Cas IIIC, Cas IIID, Cas IV, Cas IVA, Cas IVB, Cas II, Cas IIA, Cas IIB, Cas ITC, Cas V, Cas VI). In some embodiments, the Cas protein comprises other proteins (e.g., a fusion protein). In some embodiments, the Cas protein comprises an additional enzyme that associates with a nucleic acid molecule (e.g., ligase, transcriptase, transposase, nuclease, endonuclease, reverse transcriptase, polymerase, helicase, etc.). In some embodiments, the endonuclease complex is delivered exogenously or is encoded in the nucleic acid construct for transcription and translation within the cell.


In some embodiments, the one or more therapeutic agents comprises a small molecule inhibitor (e.g., a molecule having a molecular weight of less than 900 Daltons). In some embodiments, the small molecule is configured to decrease the expression level and/or activity level of PKMYT1, or the small molecule is configured to decrease the expression level and/or activity level of PKMYT1 in combination with a deficiency or mutation in the gene encoding the biomarker. In some embodiments, the small molecule may directly interact with both the first gene and the second gene. For example, the small molecule may inhibit the protein or proteins encoded by one or both of the first gene and the second gene, respectively. Alternatively or in addition to, the small molecule may inhibit an upstream effector or downstream protein in a signaling pathway in which one or both of the genes interact.


In some embodiments, the small molecule inhibitor comprises a PKMYT1 inhibitor. Non-limiting examples of PKMYT1 inhibitor include 5-((5-methoxy-2-((4-morpholinophenyl)amino)pyrimidin-4-yl)amino)-2-methylphenol, N-(2-chloro-6-methylphenyl)-2-((6-(4-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazin-1-yl)-2-methylpyrimidin-4-yl)amino)thiazole-5-carboxamide (dasatinib), 4-((2,4-dichloro-5-methoxyphenyl)amino)-6-methoxy-7-(3-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)propoxy)quinoline-3-carbonitrile (bosutinib), N-(5 -chlorobenzo[d] [1,3]dioxo1-4-yl)-7-(2-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)ethoxy)-5-((tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)oxy)quinazolin-4-amine (saracatinib), (E)-N-(4-((3-chloro-4-fluorophenyl)amino)-3-cyano-7-ethoxyquinolin-6-yl)-4-(dimethylamino)but-2-enamide (pelitinib), N-(3-chlorophenyl)-6,7-dimethoxyquinazolin-4-amine (tyrphostin AG 1478), 6-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-2-((4-(2-(diethylamino)ethoxy)phenyl)amino)-8-methylpyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7(8H)-one (PD-0166285), dichlorophenyl)-8-methyl-2-((4-morpholinophenyl)amino)pyrido[2,3 -d]pyrimidin-7(8H)-one (PD-173952), 6-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-8-methyl-2-((3-(methylthio)phenyl)amino)pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7(8H)-one (PD-173955), and 6-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-2-((4-fluoro-3-methylphenyl)amino)-8-methylpyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7(8H)-one (PD-180970). In some embodiments, the PKMYT1 inhibitor is dasatinib, saracatinib, pelitinib, tyrphostin AG 1478, PD-0166285, PD-173952, PD-173955, or PD-180970.


In some embodiments, the small molecule inhibitor is configured to inhibit or decrease the expression of PKMYT 1 gene or the activity of PKMYT1 (a protein derived from the PKMYT1 gene), either directly or indirectly. In some embodiments, the small molecule inhibitor inhibits PKMYT1 by binding to the PKMYT1 kinase domain. In some embodiments, the small molecule inhibitor is an allosteric inhibitor of PKMYT1. In some embodiments, the small molecule inhibitor inhibits a protein upstream or downstream of PKMYT1 in a signaling pathway, such as, but not limited to, those shown in FIG. 2.

In some embodiments, the small molecule inhibitor comprises a combination of small molecule inhibitors or derivatives thereof. For example, in some embodiments, a small molecule inhibitor is engineered or modified for dual specificity, wherein the small molecule inhibitor decreases expression level and/or activity of PKMYT1 and the biomarker. In some embodiments, a combination of small molecule inhibitors (e.g., a small molecule “cocktail”) is used to decrease expression level and/or activity of PKMYT1 alone or both PKMYT1 and the biomarker.


In some embodiments, the small molecule inhibitor is administered in any useful concentration. For example, in some embodiments, the small molecule is administered at a concentration of about 0.5 nanomolar (nM), about 1 nM, about 10 nM, about 20 nM, about 30 nM, about 40 nM, about 50 nM, about 60 nM, about 70 nM, about 80 nM, about 90 nM, about 100 nM, about 200 nM, about 300 nM, about 400 nM, about 500 nM, about 600 nM, about 700 nM, about 800 nM, about 900 nM, about 1 micromolar (μM), about 2 μM, about 3 μM, about 4 μM, about 5 μM, about 6 μM, about 7 μM, about 8 μM, about 9 μM, about 10 μM. In some embodiments, the small molecule inhibitor is administered at a concentration of at least about 0.5 nanomolar (nM), at least about 1 nM, at least about 10 nM, at least about 20 nM, at least about 30 nM, at least about 40 nM, at least about 50 nM, at least about 60 nM, at least about 70 nM, at least about 80 nM, at least about 90 nM, at least about 100 nM, at least about 200 nM, at least about 300 nM, at least about 400 nM, at least about 500 nM, at least about 600 nM, at least about 700 nM, at least about 800 nM, at least about 900 nM, at least about 1 micromolar (μM), at least about 2 μM, at least about 3 μM, at least about 4 μM, at least about 5 μM, at least about 6 μM, at least about 7 μM, at least about 8 μM, at least about 9 μM, at least about 10 μM.

Wherein more than one small molecule is used, the concentrations may be the same of different for each small molecule used.


In some embodiments, the administration of the one or more therapeutic agents in a subject having a cancer with a mutation or deficiency in a biomarker described herein requires a lower concentration or dosage to achieve therapeutic efficacy. For example, in some embodiments, a lower dosage of PKMYT1 inhibitor is sufficient to kill cancer cells comprising a deficiency and/or mutation in a gene encoding a biomarker described herein that is a synthetic lethal pair with PKMYT1, as compared to control cells (e.g., non-cancer cells) that do not have the biomarker deficiency and/or mutation. Without being bound by theory, as higher dosages or concentrations of PKMYT1 inhibition in a subject may increase toxicity, administration of a lower concentration or dosage of PKMYT1 inhibitor in selected or pre-screened cancer types (e.g., cancers comprising the deficiency and/or mutation in a biomarker described herein that is a synthetic lethal pair with PKMYT1) is advantageous to reduce toxicity and side effects to the subject.


In some embodiments, the one or more therapeutic agents comprises a protein or peptide. For example, in some embodiments, the one or more therapeutic agents comprises an antibody, an antibody fragment, a hormone, a ligand, or an immunoglobulin. In some embodiments, the protein or peptide is naturally occurring or is synthetic. In some embodiments, the protein comprises an engineered variant of a protein (e.g., recombinant protein), or fragment thereof. In some embodiments, the protein is subjected to other modifications, e.g., post-translational modifications, including but not limited to: glycosylation, acylation, prenylation, lipoylation, alkylation, amidation, acetylation, methylation, formylation, butyrylation, carboxylation, phosphorylation, malonylation, hydroxylation, iodination, propionylation, S-nitrosylation, S-glutationylation, succinylation, sulfation, glycation, carbamylation, carbonylation, biotinylation, carbamylation, oxidation, pegylation, sumoylation, ubiquitination, ubiquitylation, racemization, etc. One or more modifications may be made to the protein or peptide.


In some embodiments, the one or more therapeutic agents comprises a nucleic acid molecule, e.g., an RNA molecule. In some embodiments, the RNA molecule comprises any suitable RNA molecule and size sufficient to decrease the expression level and/or activity of PKMYT1. In some embodiments, the RNA molecule comprises a small hairpin RNA (shRNA) molecule, a small interfering RNA (siRNA), a microRNA (miRNA), or other useful RNA molecule. In some embodiments, the RNA molecule comprises a messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), ribosomal RNAs (rRNA), small nuclear RNA (snRNA), piwi-interacting (piRNA), non-coding RNA (ncRNA), long non-coding RNA, (lncRNA), and fragments of any of the foregoing. In some embodiments, the RNA molecule is single-stranded, double-stranded, or partially single- or double-stranded.


It will be appreciated that one or more therapeutic agents (e.g., peptides, RNA molecules, protein-nucleic acid complexes) are listed as examples and that a combination of therapeutic agent types may be used to treat the subject. For example, in some embodiments, administering one or more different types of therapeutic agents may be used to alter (e.g., increase or decrease) the expression level and/or activity of PKMYT1. For example, in some embodiments, a protein or peptide co-administered with a small molecule (e.g., a molecule having a molecular weight of less than 900 Daltons), an RNA molecule, a DNA molecule, or a complexed molecule (e.g., protein-nucleic acid molecule) is used to alter (e.g., increase or decrease) the expression level and/or activity of PKMYT1. In some embodiments, an RNA molecule is co-administered with a small molecule, a DNA molecule, or a complexed molecule to alter (e.g., increase or decrease) the expression level and/or activity of PKMYT1. In some embodiments, a small molecule is co-administered with a DNA molecule or a complexed molecule to alter (e.g., increase or decrease) the expression level and/or activity of PKMYT1. Any of these combinations may be used to alter (e.g., increase or decrease) the expression level and/or activity of PKMYT1 in a cell comprising a mutation and/or deficiency in a biomarker described herein (e.g., a biomarker forming a synthetic lethal pair with PKMYT1). These combinations are non-limiting examples of different combinations of agents that may be used to treat the subject having or suspected of having cancer (e.g., liver or ovarian cancer).

Numerous variations, changes, and substitutions may occur to those skilled in the art without departing from the invention. It will be understood that various alternatives to the embodiments of the invention described herein may be employed.


Whenever the term “at least,” “greater than,” or “greater than or equal to” precedes the first numerical value in a series of two or more numerical values, the term “at least,” “greater than” or “greater than or equal to” applies to each of the numerical values in that series of numerical values. For example, greater than or equal to 1, 2, or 3 is equivalent to greater than or equal to 1, greater than or equal to 2, or greater than or equal to 3.


Whenever the term “no more than,” “less than,” or “less than or equal to” precedes the first numerical value in a series of two or more numerical values, the term “no more than,” “less than,” or “less than or equal to” applies to each of the numerical values in that series of numerical values. For example, less than or equal to 3, 2, or 1 is equivalent to less than or equal to 3, less than or equal to 2, or less than or equal to 1.


The term “subject,” as used herein, generally refers to an animal, such as a mammal (e.g., human), reptile, or avian (e.g., bird), or other organism, such as a plant. For example, the subject can be a vertebrate, a mammal, a rodent (e.g., a mouse), a primate, a simian or a human. The subject can be a healthy individual, an individual that is asymptomatic with respect to a disease (e.g., liver or ovarian cancer), an individual that has or is suspected of having the disease (e.g., liver or ovarian cancer) or a pre-disposition to the disease, or an individual that is symptomatic with respect to the disease. The subject may be in need of therapy. The subject can be a patient undergoing monitoring or treatment by a healthcare provider, such as a treating physician.


As used herein, the term “patient” refers to a human subject having a disease or condition in need of treatment. In some embodiments, a patient to be treated or tested for responsiveness to a treatment according to the methods described herein is one who has been diagnosed with a cancer, such as any cancer described herein. Diagnosis may be performed by any method or technique known in the art, such as x-ray, MRI, or biopsy, and may also be confirmed by a physician. To minimize exposure of a patient to drug treatments that may not be therapeutic, the patient may be determined to be either responsive or non-responsive to a cancer treatment, such as a PKMYT1 therapeutic agent described herein, according to the methods described herein prior to treatment.


The term “genome,” as used herein, generally refers to genomic information from a subject, which may be, for example, at least a portion or an entirety of a subject's hereditary information. A genome can be encoded in a deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecule (s) and may be expressed in a ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecule(s). A genome can comprise coding regions (e.g., that code for proteins) as well as non-coding regions. A genome can include the sequence of all chromosomes together in an organism. For example, the human genome ordinarily has a total of 46 chromosomes. The sequence of all of these together may constitute a human genome.


The term “contacting” as used herein means establishing a physical connection between two or more entities. Methods of contacting cells with external entities both in vivo, in vitro, and ex vivo are well known in the biological arts. In exemplary embodiments of the disclosure, the step of contacting a mammalian cell with a composition (e.g., a composition comprising a therapeutic agent described herein) is performed in vivo. For example, contacting a composition and a cell (for example, a mammalian cell) which may be disposed within an organism (e.g., a mammal) may be performed by any suitable administration route (e.g., parenteral administration to the organism, including intravenous, intramuscular, intradermal, and subcutaneous administration). For a cell present in vitro, a composition (e.g., a composition comprising a therapeutic agent described herein) and a cell may be contacted, for example, by adding the composition to the culture medium of the cell and may involve or result in transfection. Moreover, more than one cell may be contacted by the composition.


As used herein the terms “cancer” and “cancerous” refer to or describe the physiological condition in mammals (e.g., humans) that is typically characterized by unregulated cell proliferation.

EXAMPLES
Example 1
Prediction of Biomarkers Forming a Synthetic Lethal Pair with PKMYT1

A computational approach was used to identify genes that are inactivated (e.g., via mutation or deletion) in tumor cells that when combined with loss of function of a target gene (e.g., by genetic knockout using CRISPR/Cas9 or by pharmacological inhibition) generate a synthetic lethal phenotype. As used herein, “gene A” or a “gene A biomarker” each refer to a gene in the genetic background of a tumor (e.g., primary tumor) of one or more human cancers that when inactivated by deletion or mutation (e.g., homozygous deletion, missense mutation that is deleterious to protein function, or missense mutation rendering an open reading frame that encodes a truncated protein) has little effect on cell viability on its own, but when combined with loss of function of the target gene, referred to herein as “gene B,” results in synthetic lethality. This example is based on prediction of gene A biomarkers that function as synthetic lethal pairs with the human protein kinase PKMYT1. The computational approaches taken to identify the biomarkers involved mining public and proprietary datasets using unbiased, orthogonal algorithms. Described in this example are the computational methods and criteria that were used to prioritize predicted gene A biomarkers for further validation.


A first algorithm (referred to herein as “algorithm A”) was developed to evaluate one or more publicly available databases. Suitable databases catalog data generated from genetic knockout-libraries (e.g., RNAi or CRISPR/Cas9 libraries) screened for lethality across many genetic contexts. Algorithm A enables analysis of the lethality of specific gene knockouts across the different genetic backgrounds to identify putative synthetic lethal pairs. For example, algorithm A considers the gene mutations present in a given genetic background and mines the gene-knockout screen for potential targets that when suppressed (e.g., using a gene-knockout tool such as CRISPR/Cas9 or an inhibitory drug), result in synthetic lethality. Algorithm A was implemented with certain prediction criteria to predict gene A biomarkers that form synthetic lethal pairs with PKMYT1. The prediction criteria used in conjunction with algorithm A to select predicted gene A biomarkers include (a)(i) a P value of less than 0.001 or (a)(ii) odds ratio of greater than 2; and (b) gene inactivation in at least 4 or more cell lines. The P value was derived from a chi-squared test of association of the biomarker mutation and sensitivity to perturbation in PKYMT1. The odds ratio was defined as the ratio of the odds of sensitivity to PKYMT1 perturbation in cells with a mutation in the biomarker to the odds of sensitivity to PKYMT1 perturbation in cells that are wild-type for the biomarker. Predicted biomarkers that met these prediction criteria were further tiered based on prevalence. Prevalence was determined as the frequency of inactivating mutations (i.e., homozygous deletion, missense mutation that are deleterious, or missense mutations that are protein truncating variants) across all 28 cancer types listed in TCGA (Cancer Genome Atlas Program; see world wide web: cancer.gov/tcga). Predicted biomarkers with (i) prevalence >5% were categorized as “algorithm A Tier 1”; (ii) prevalence of >3% and <5% were categorized as “algorithm A Tier 2”; and (iii) prevalence of ≥1% and <3% were categorized as “algorithm A Tier 3.” According to these prediction criteria, 1 biomarker was identified as algorithm A Tier 1 biomarker, 49 biomarkers were identified as algorithm A Tier 2 biomarkers, and 896 biomarkers were identified as algorithm A Tier 3 biomarkers.


A second algorithm (referred to herein as “algorithm B”) is based on a machine-learning model. A large database featuring synthetic lethal pairs was developed from internally-generated functional genomic and experimental data and externally sourced and/or publicly-available datasets. The database was used to train the machine learning model to identify gene interactions that could function as synthetic lethal pairs. Algorithm B was implemented with prediction criteria to predict gene A biomarkers that form a synthetic lethal pair with PKMYT1. The prediction criteria included a prediction score and prevalence data. The prediction score ranged between 0 and 1, wherein a gene A biomarker with a higher prediction score has a stronger probability of forming a synthetic lethal pair with a given target gene B (e.g., PKYMT1). A prediction score of 0.3 was used as an estimated cutoff that maximizes the sum of sensitivity and specificity based on the algorithm B training data. Predicted biomarkers that met the prediction criteria were tiered based on prevalence across six human cancer types listed in the TCGA, including: colorectal adenocarcinoma (COAD), breast invasive carcinoma (BRCA), lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC), ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma (OV), and liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC). Biomarkers having (i) a prediction score of greater than 0.3 and a prevalence of >5% were categorized as “algorithm B Tier 1”; (ii) a prediction score of greater than 0.5 and a prevalence of ≥3% and <5% were categorized as “algorithm B Tier 2”; and (iii) a prediction score of greater than 0.5 and a prevalence of ≥1% and <3% were categorized as “algorithm B Tier 3.”


According to these prediction criteria, 138 biomarkers were identified as algorithm B Tier 1 biomarkers, 29 biomarkers were identified as algorithm B Tier 2 biomarkers, and 181 biomarkers were identified as algorithm B Tier 3 biomarkers.


Of the biomarkers that were identified based on the prediction criteria for algorithm A and B, the biomarkers selected for further validation as forming synthetic lethal pairs with PKYMT1 are indicated below:


(1) biomarkers identified by both algorithm A and algorithm B. These include the 27 biomarkers identified in Table 4. Without being bound by theory, a biomarker identified by both algorithm A and algorithm B as a predicted synthetic lethal pair with PKMYT1 is expected to have a higher likelihood of being validated as a synthetic lethal pair with PKMYT1. This rationale is based, at least in part, on the understanding that algorithm A and algorithm B are orthogonal approaches to identify putative synthetic lethal pairs, with algorithm A being a predictive algorithm that provides for analysis of experimental datasets and algorithm B a machine-learning model, and they are not expected to yield an extensive overlap of false positive LOF biomarkers;

Example 2
CombiGEM Methods for Identifying Synthetic Lethality Pairs

A combinatorial genetic en masse (CombiGEM™) screen is used to validate synthetic lethal pairs identified by the computational methods described in Example 1. Methods of performing CombiGEM™ are known in the art and described in U.S. Pat. No. 9,315,806; Bari, et al. (2017) Scientific Reports 7:6993; Wong, et al (2016) PNAS 113:2544-2549, each of which are incorporated by reference in their entirety. This example provides an overview of the pooled screening method to validate predicted synthetic lethal pairs of gene A biomarkers and gene B targets.


Briefly, oligonucleotide synthesis is used to generate a library of barcoded gRNA target sequences directed to gene A biomarkers (“gene A gRNA library”) and a library of barcoded gRNA target sequences directed to gene B targets (“gene B gRNA library”). The libraries are pooled and cloned into a storage vector downstream a promoter (e.g., a human U6 (hU6) promoter for the gene A gRNA library and a murine U6 (mU6) promoter for the gene B gRNA library). The gRNA backbone sequence is then inserted into the storage vector libraries in a single-pot ligation reaction to create the gene A and gene B barcoded sgRNA libraries. Within the sgRNA construct, there are “internal” restriction sites positioned between the gRNA sequence and its barcode (e.g., BamHI and EcoRl sites) and “external” restriction sites positioned at the ends (e.g., Bg1II and MfeI sites).


A first “gene A sgRNA lentiviral library” is generated by digesting the gene A sgRNA constructs at the external restriction sites and inserting into a destination lentiviral backbone having compatible overhangs that are generated by digestion, thereby generating a barcoded sgRNA lentiviral library for generating loss-of-function in gene A.


A second “gene B sgRNA lentiviral library” is generated by digesting the gene B sgRNA constructs at the external restriction sites and inserting into a destination lentiviral backbone having compatible overhangs that are generated by digestion, thereby generating a barcoded sgRNA lentiviral library for generating loss-of-function in gene B.


A third “gene A*B sgRNA lentiviral library” is generated by digesting the gene A sgRNA constructs at the external restriction sites and inserting into a destination lentiviral backbone having compatible overhangs that are generated by digestion. Subsequently, the gene B sgRNA construct is digested at its external restrictions sites and inserted into the lentiviral construct at a site generated by digestion of the internal restriction sites positioned adjacent to the gene A sgRNA sequences. The resulting library of lentiviral vectors contains 5′ to 3′: (i) a gene A-targeting sgRNA, (ii) a gene B-targeting sgRNA, and (iii) concatenated gene A sgRNA and gene B sgRNA barcodes that enable tracking of individual combinatorial members within pooled populations via next generation sequencing. FIG. 1 provides a schematic depicting the constructs of the gene A*B sgRNA lentiviral library.


The barcoded sgRNA lentiviral libraries are evaluated in Cas9-expressing cancer cell lines (e.g., HT29 and/or LS180 cell lines). Briefly, the lentiviruses are produced and packaged, e.g., in HEK293T cells. The cell culture are transduced with either the gene A sgRNA lentiviral library, the gene B sgRNA lentiviral library, or the gene A*B sgRNA lentiviral library. A low multiplicity of infection is used to ensure single copy integration in most cells. Transfected cells are cultured, e.g., for a period of 20-30 days. Genomic DNA is harvested and used for quantification of the integrated barcodes using a combination of barcode amplification by PCR and sequencing by NGS. The proliferation rate of a particular clone is based on the relative frequency of its barcode with regard to the whole population. The barcode reads are normalized per million reads for each sample. To measure cell proliferation, barcode count ratios of normalized barcode reads were calculated as fold changes. The calculated fold change was log transformed to give the log2 fold-change (LFC). Pro-proliferation and anti-proliferation phenotypes have an LFC of greater than zero and less than zero respectively.


The LFC values are determined for cells transfected using gene A sgRNA sequences (gene A knockout), the gene B sgRNA sequences (gene B knockout), and the geneA*B sgRNA sequences (gene A*B double knockout). The gene interaction (GI) score is calculated, which is the difference between the observed LFC of the gene A*B double knockout and the expected LFC of the gene A*B double knockout that would be obtained by simply adding gene A knockout LFC +gene B knockout LFC. Synthetic lethal pairs are then selected as those having at least one cell line with (i) a gene A*B double knockout LFC of less than −1 and (II) a GI score of less than −1.


The foregoing CombiGEM methods are used to validate predicted biomarkers as synthetic lethal pairs with PKMYT1. A gene A sgRNA lentiviral library and a gene A*B sgRNA lentiviral library is developed, in which the gene A sgRNA library targets the predicted biomarkers identified in Example 1 and gene B sgRNA targets PKMYT1. The barcoded sgRNA lentiviral libraries are evaluated in Cas9-expressing cancer cell lines (e.g., HT29 or LS180). Lentiviral constructs encoding the PKMYT1 sgRNA are also evaluated in Cas9-expressing cancer cell lines (e.g., HT29 or LS180 cell lines). Following culture, the cells are harvested and LFC and GI values are determined as described above.


Example 3
Validation of Predicted Biomarkers and PKMYT1 as Synthetic Lethality Pairs

The CombiGEM methods described in Example 2 were used to validate putative biomarkers as synthetic lethal pairs with PKMYT1. A gene A sgRNA lentiviral library and a gene A*B sgRNA lentiviral library were developed, in which the gene A sgRNA library targets certain biomarkers identified in Example 1 and gene B sgRNA targets PKMYT1. The barcoded sgRNA lentiviral libraries were evaluated in a Cas9-expressing colon cancer cell line (LS180) or in a Cas9-expressing ovarian cancer cell line (PA1). Lentiviral constructs encoding the PKMYT1 sgRNA were also evaluated in Cas9-expressing HT29 and LS180 cell lines. Following culture, the cells were harvested and LFC and GI values were determined as described in Example 2.


The LFC values for LS180 cells transfected with PKMYT1-targeting sgRNA were −0.12 and −1.47 respectively. Shown in Tables 8 and 9 are the LFC values for a double-knockout of the gene A biomarker and PKMYT1 and the GI score as measured in LS180 cells or PA1 cells respectively. Also included as a gene A biomarker was PPP2R2A (as previously described in PCT/US2021/25230, for forming a synthetic lethal pair with PKMYT1). PPP2R2A was observed to have a LFC (gene A*B) and GI respectively of -3.41 and −1.02 in LS180 cells and of -3.48 and −2.19 in PA1 cells.
