Abstract:
Targeted therapies that inhibit receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs)and the downstream phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) signalingpathway have shown promising anticancer activity, but theirefficacy in the brain tumor glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) andother solid tumors has been modest. We hypothesized that multipleRTKs are coactivated in these tumors and that redundant inputsdrive and maintain downstream signaling, thereby limiting theefficacy of therapies targeting single RTKs. Tumor cell lines,xenotransplants, and primary tumors indeed show multiple concomitantlyactivated RTKs. Combinations of RTK inhibitors and/or RNA interference,but not single agents, decreased signaling, cell survival, andanchorage-independent growth even in glioma cells deficientin PTEN, a frequently inactivated inhibitor of PI3K. Thus, effectiveGBM therapy may require combined regimens targeting multipleRTKs.
