Sensitization of EGFR wild-type non-small cell lung cancer cells to EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor erlotinib.

Résumé

The benefit of EGFR-TKI in non-small cell lung cancer has been demonstrated in mutant EGFR tumors as first-line treatment but the benefit in wild-type EGFR tumors is marginal as well as restricted to maintenance therapy in pretreated patients. This work aimed at questioning the effects of cisplatin initial treatment on the EGFR pathway in non-small cell lung cancer and the functional consequences in vitro and in in vivo animal models of Patient-Derived Xenografts (PDX). We establish here that cisplatin pretreatment specifically sensitizes wild-type EGFR expressing cells to erlotinib, contrary to what happens in mutant-EGFR cells and with a blocking EGFR antibody, both in vitro and in vivo. The sensitization entails the activation of the kinase Src upstream of EGFR, thereafter transactivating EGFR through a ligand-independent activation. We propose a combination of markers which enable to discriminate between the tumors sensitized to erlotinib or not in PDX models, that should be worth testing in patients. These markers might be useful for the selection of patients who would benefit from erlotinib as a maintenance therapy.
