Redoxhigh phenotype mediated by KEAP1/STK11/SMARCA4/NRF2 mutations diminishes tissue-resident memory CD8+ T cells and attenuates the efficacy of immunotherapy in lung adenocarcinoma. (PubMed, Oncoimmunology)

The redoxhigh phenotype in LUAD is predominantly driven by mutations in KEAP1, STK11, NRF2, and SMARCA4. This phenotype diminishes the number of tissue-resident memory CD8+ T cells and attenuates the efficacy of ICIs.

Differential squamous cell fates elicited by NRF2 gain of function versus KEAP1 loss of function. (PubMed, Cell Rep)

These findings demonstrate that, while cellular NRF2 levels are similarly induced, NRF2 gain of function and KEAP1 loss of function elicits distinct fates of squamous cells. The NRF2L30F mutant mouse model developed here will be instrumental in elucidating the mechanistic basis leading to NRF2-activated ESCC.

Clinicopathological and molecular characteristics of esophageal carcinoma with ductal differentiation: analysis of 17 cases (PubMed, Zhonghua Bing Li Xue Za Zhi)

At the signaling pathway level, the mutation frequency of NOTCH signaling pathway (P=0.041) was significantly higher, while the mutation frequencies of NRF2 pathway (P=0.013) and PI3K pathway (P=0.009) were significantly lower than that of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Esophageal carcinoma with ductal differentiation is a type of esophageal carcinoma with unique morphology, and its molecular changes are also significantly different from those of conventional esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

Impact of KEAP1/STK11 co-mutations and NRF2 signaling on resistance to adagrasib in advanced NSCLC (AACR 2024)

Background: KRAS G12C inhibitors (G12Ci) are revolutionizing the therapeutic landscape of advanced NSCLC, but mechanisms of limited clinical efficacy observed in some patients (pts) merit continued exploration. Co-mutations in KEAP1 and STK11 and NRF2 signaling define a subgroup of KG12C NSCLC pts with markedly distinct outcomes upon treatment with ada. The mTORi and ada combination shows high efficacy for targeting KG12C NSCLC harboring KEAP1 and STK11 co-mutations. The clinical safety and efficacy of mTORi nab-sirolimus and ada will be determined in the ongoing KRYSTAL-19 trial (NCT05840510).

ARID1A loss is associated with increased NRF2 signaling in human head and neck squamous cell carcinomas. (PubMed, PLoS One)

Overall, our results support a context-dependent functional link between SWI/SNF and NRF2 mutations across human cancers and implicate ARID1A inactivation in HPV-negative HNSC in promoting tumor progression and survival through activation of the KEAP1-NRF2 signaling pathway. The tumor-specific effects of these mutations open a new area of study for how mutations in the KEAP1-NRF2 pathway and the SWI/SNF complex contribute to cancer.

Genome-wide analyses reveal the contribution of somatic variants to the immune landscape of multiple cancer types. (PubMed, PLoS Genet)

By integrating multiple RNA-seq data, a NRF2 gene signature was curated, which predicts anti-PD1 therapy response better than CD274 gene alone in a mixed cohort of different subtypes of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) including LUAD, highlighting the important role of KEAP1-NRF2 axis in shaping the TME in NSCLC. Finally, a list of overexpressed ligands in NRF2 pathway activated cancer cells were identified and could potentially be targeted for TME remodeling in LUAD.

Immunoediting of KEAP1-NRF2 mutant tumours is required to circumvent NRF2-mediated immune surveillance. (PubMed, Redox Biol)

This immunoediting takes the form of reduced antigen presentation by the MHC-I complex, coupled with reduced expression of activating ligands for NK cells. Together, these modifications to the immunogenicity of NRF2-activated cancers inhibit immune effector cell infiltration and engagement, and contribute to the formation of the immunologically cold tumour microenvironment which is a characteristic feature of NRF2-activated cancers.

Molecular characterization of nectin-4 in non-small cell lung cancer subtypes. (ASCO 2023)

As enfortumab vedotin, an antibody-drug conjugate directed against nectin-4, has been FDA approved for advanced urothelial carcinoma, this holds treatment implications...NFE2L2 alterations in SQ and STK11, KEAP1 mutations in AD, which are associated with poor immunotherapy (IO) response, were enriched in Q4 tumors. This suggests that the immune landscape associated with high nectin-4 expression in NSCLC may be driven by the dysregulated KEAP1-NFE2L2 pathway. Targeted therapy towards nectin-4 may benefit these NSCLC subtypes that do not respond well to IO.

NFE2L2 mutations enhance radioresistance in head and neck cancer by modulating intratumoral myeloid cells. (PubMed, Cancer Res)

Radiotherapy increased expression of PMN-MDSC-attracting chemokines, including CXCL1, CXLC3 and CSF3, in Nrf2E79Q-expressing tumors via the TLR4, which could be reversed by CB-839. This study provides insights into the impact of NFE2L2 mutations on radioresistance and suggests that CB-839 can increase radiosensitivity by switching intratumoral myeloid cells to an anti-tumor phenotype, supporting clinical testing of CB-839 with radiation in HNSCC with NFE2L2 mutations.

KYNU upregulation is a prominent feature of NRF2-activated cancers and is associated with tumor immunosuppression and poor prognosis (AACR 2023)

Metabolomic analyses of conditioned media from PDAC cell lines revealed elevated levels of KYNU-derived anthranilate, confirming KYNU as enzymatically functional. Collectively, our findings highlight the multi-cancer relevance of the NRF2-KYNU axis and of tumoral KYNU as a prognostic marker of poor overall survival associated with immunosuppression.
