    Synthetic Lethal Targeting of Cyclin Dependent Kinase-12-Deficient Prostate Cancer with PARP Inhibitors. (PubMed, Clin Cancer Res)
    In PC, sensitivity to PARPi is dependent on the specific type and zygosity of the CDK12 mutation. PARPi monotherapy may have some activity in PC patients with biallelic inactivating CDK12 alterations.

    Cyclin-dependent kinase 12 deficiency reprogrammes cellular metabolism to alleviate ferroptosis potential and promote the progression of castration-resistant prostate cancer. (PubMed, Clin Transl Med)
    CDK12 deficiency promotes castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) progression by reprogramming cellular metabolism. CDK12 deficiency in CRPC leads to a more active mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC), ensuring efficient cell energy supply. CDK12 phosphorylates RNA Pol II to ensure the transcription of ACSL4 to regulate ferroptosis. Mitochondrial ETC inhibitors exhibit better selectivity for CDK12-deficient CRPC cells, offering a promising new therapeutic approach for this subtype of CRPC patients.

    Tubule-specific cyclin-dependent kinase 12 knockdown potentiates kidney injury through transcriptional elongation defects. (PubMed, Int J Biol Sci)
    Moreover, tubular cell-specific knockdown of CDK12 in mice enhanced cisplatin-induced AKI through promotion of genome instability, apoptosis, and proliferative inhibition, whereas CDK12 overexpression protected against AKI. Using the single molecule real-time (SMRT) platform on the kidneys of CDK12RTEC+/- mice, we found that CDK12 knockdown targeted Fgf1 and Cast through transcriptional elongation defects, thereby enhancing genome instability and apoptosis. Overall, these data demonstrated that CDK12 knockdown could potentiate the development of AKI by altering the transcriptional elongation defect of the Fgf1 and Cast genes, and more attention should be given to patients treated with CDK12 inhibitors to prevent AKI.

    CDK12 inhibition upregulates ATG7 triggering autophagy via AKT/FOXO3 pathway and enhances anti-PD-1 efficacy in colorectal cancer. (PubMed, Pharmacol Res)
    Inhibition of autophagy by ATG7 knockdown and chloroquine (CQ) further decreased cell viability induced by CDK12 inhibition...Thus, our study founded that CDK12 inhibition upregulates ATG7 triggering autophagy via AKT/FOXO3 pathway and enhances anti-PD-1 efficacy in CRC. We revealed the roles of CDK12/FOXO3/ATG7 in regulating CRC progression, suggesting potential biomarkers and therapeutic target for CRC.

    The CDK12 inhibitor SR-4835 functions as a molecular glue that promotes cyclin K degradation in melanoma. (PubMed, Cell Death Discov)
    Docking studies and structure-activity relationship analyses of SR-4835 revealed the importance of the benzimidazole side-chain in molecular glue activity. Together, our results indicate that SR-4835 acts as a molecular glue that recruits the CDK12-cyclin K complex to the CUL4-RBX1-DDB1 ubiquitin ligase complex to target cyclin K for degradation.

    Inhibition of CDK12 elevates cancer cell dependence on P-TEFb by stimulation of RNA polymerase II pause release. (PubMed, Nucleic Acids Res)
    In summary, stimulation of Pol II pause release at the signal-responsive genes underlies the functional dependence of CDK12-inhibited cancer cells on P-TEFb. Our study establishes the mechanistic underpinning for combinatorial targeting of CDK12 with either P-TEFb or the induced oncogenic pathways in cancer.

    Based on the cut-off criteria of free energy calculations, one common hit was selected as the dual CDK12/13 inhibitor. The outcome concluded that the hit with ID CNP0386383 possesses drug-like properties, displays crucial interaction in the binding pocket, and shows stable dynamic behaviour and higher binding energy than the experimentally reported inhibitor of both CDK12 and CDK13 enzymes.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

    Conversely, our results show that CDK12 inhibition promotes the expression of short genes with few exons, including many growth-promoting genes regulated by the AP-1 and NF-κB transcription factors. Inhibition of these pathways strongly synergize with CDK12 inhibitors to suppress melanoma growth, suggesting promising drug combinations for more effective melanoma treatment.

    Here, we demonstrate that pharmacological inhibition or genetic inactivation of CDK12 induces AR gene intronic (intron 3) polyadenylation (IPA) usage, AR-V expression, and PCa cell resistance to the antiandrogen enzalutamide (ENZ)...Our findings identify CYCLIN K down-regulation as a key driver of IPA usage, hormonal therapy-induced AR-V expression, and castration resistance in PCa. These results suggest that hormonal therapy-induced AR-V expression and therapy resistance are vulnerable to PARP inhibitor treatment.

    CDK12 loss leads to replication stress and sensitivity to combinations of the ATR inhibitor camonsertib (RP-3500) with PARP inhibitors (AACR-NCI-EORTC 2022)
    Conclusions The work reports on novel evidence supporting the hypothesis that CDK12 LOF does not lead to HRD, but rather causes aberrant DNA replication origin licensing. Our findings suggest that CDK12 biallelic LOF mutations may result in a therapeutic vulnerability to ATRi/PARPi, potentially leading to a new therapeutic approach to tumors with CDK12 LOF.

    Stable CDK12 Knock-Out Ovarian Cancer Cells Do Not Show Increased Sensitivity to Cisplatin and PARP Inhibitor Treatment. (PubMed, Front Oncol)
    We found partial down-regulation of the expression of DNA repair genes at the mRNA level and, among the down-regulated genes, an enrichment in the G2/M checkpoint genes. Although the biological features of CDK12 KO cells are compatible with the function of CDK12, contrary to some reports, we could not find any difference in the sensitivity to cisplatin and olaparib between wild-type and CDK12 KO cells.

    CDK12 promotes tumorigenesis but induces vulnerability to therapies inhibiting folate one-carbon metabolism in breast cancer. (PubMed, Nat Commun)
    In a retrospective analysis of hormone receptor-negative and lymph node-positive breast cancer patients randomized in an adjuvant phase III trial to 1-year low-dose metronomic methotrexate-based chemotherapy or no maintenance chemotherapy, a high CDK12 status predicts a dramatic reduction in distant metastasis rate in the chemotherapy-treated vs. not-treated arm. Thus, by coupling tumor progression with metabolic reprogramming, CDK12 creates an actionable vulnerability for breast cancer therapy and might represent a suitable companion biomarker for targeted antimetabolite therapies in human breast cancers.

    PATIENT-DERIVED PANCREATIC CANCER ORGANOIDS FOR MODELING DRUG RESPONSE IRRESPECTIVE OF BRCA PHENOTYPE: ONE STEP CLOSER TO TAILORED TREATMENT IN PANCREATIC CANCER? (DDW 2022)
    We evaluated PDOs sensitivity to carboplatin, PARPi olaparib, CDK12/CDK13i SR-4835, and the combination of olaparib with SR-4835. PDOs profiling may predict treatment responses in patients with PDAC and provide a rationale for prioritizing therapeutic regimens. Furthermore, a synergistic therapeutic effect between olaparib and SR-4835 seems to be present, which, if confirmed and tolerated, could extend the opportunity of targeted therapy to a greater group of patients, by extending eligibility for PARPi irrespective of BRCA germline mutation status.

    Expanding the use of targeted therapy for urothelial bladder cancer (UBC): Non-FGFR3 receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) gene rearrangements (ReAr) and fusions (fus) (AUA 2022)
    Source of Funding : Foundation Medicine Introduction : After the regulatory approval of erdafitinib targeting FGFR genomic alterations (GA), molecular profiling and targeted therapy indications may further expand in UBC...Conclusions : At a 5% frequency, potentially ‘targetable’ RTK gene rearrangements and fusions are a rare but important opportunity to further personalize treatment selection of UBC, including RTK inhibitors, PARP inhibitors (CDK12) and immunotherapy. This potential for clinical trials supports broader CGP, compared to targeted FGFR sequencing, in order to uncover additional opportunities for precision therapies that have the potential to improve patient outcomes.
