    SMARCA4 is a haploinsufficient B cell lymphoma tumor suppressor that fine-tunes centrocyte cell fate decisions. (PubMed, Cancer Cell)
    Loss of activity for these factors phenocopied aberrant BCL6 activity within murine centrocytes and human Burkitt lymphoma cells. SMARCA4 therefore facilitates chromatin accessibility for TFs that shape centrocyte trajectories, and loss of fine-control of these programs biases toward centroblast cell-fate, GC hyperplasia and lymphoma.

    Clinicopathological features of gastric alpha-fetoprotein-producing adenocarcinoma with SWI/SNF complex deletion (PubMed, Zhonghua Bing Li Xue Za Zhi)
    Postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy was given to three patients. AFP-producing adenocarcinoma is a rare subtype of gastric cancer, which can be combined with SWI/SNF complex deletion, and the pathomorphological manifestations are different from the classical SWI/SNF complex deletion of undifferentiated carcinoma with rhabdoid phenotype.

    Two patients had deletion of SMARCA4 at diagnosis, that confers resistance to the BCL-2 inhibitor venetoclax (Agarwal et al...Mutations in the NF-κB alternative pathway, responsible for resistance to ibrutinib, are found in both LR and HR patients. ConclusionIn this small cohort of MCL patients included in a trial, complex structural alterations were identified by OGM at the time of diagnosis. OGM is a very promising technology that demonstrated its potential in the cytogenetic prognostic staging of MCL.

    Esophageal carcinoma with SMARCA4 mutation: Unique diagnostic challenges. (PubMed, Pathol Res Pract)
    Two of the patients deceased 72 and 78 days after diagnosis, and the other two patients showed limited or no treatment response to chemotherapy. In conclusion, esophageal carcinoma with SMARCA4 mutation may pose significant diagnostic challenge for surgical pathologists due to its variable morphology and immunoprofile, and accurate classification of this entity requires recognition of the spectrum of morphology and utilization of BRG1 immunostain and next generating sequencing.

    The effect of a single SMARCA4 exon deletion on RNA splicing: Implications for variant classification. (PubMed, Mol Genet Genomic Med)
    We propose to include RNA analysis in classification of single-exon deletions, especially if located outside of known functional domains, as this can identify any disparate effects on the RNA and DNA level, which may have implications for variant classification using the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics guidelines.

    Combination therapy with selective SMARCA2 (BRM) degraders for treatment of SMARCA4 (BRG1)-deficient cancers (AACR 2023)
    In summary, our preclinical data suggest that potent and selective SMARCA2 targeted degraders may potentially improve patient outcomes when combined with therapeutic agents targeting the RAS/MAPK pathway and/or ICIs in SMARCA4-deleted cancers. The combination of SMARCA2 degraders with standard of care agents warrants further investigation as a potential novel, effective, and highly targeted combination approach.

    Preclinical characterization of PRT3789, a potent and selective SMARCA2 targeted degrader (AACR 2022)
    In subcutaneous cell-line derived xenograft (CDX) models of NSCLC, administration of PRT3789 demonstrated significant dose-related inhibition of SMARCA4-deleted NSCLC growth at tolerated doses, but no effect on the growth of SMARCA4 WT cancers. In summary, consistent with our previous validation studies and genomic perturbation analyses, our potent and selective SMARCA2 targeted degrader PRT3789 induces strong synthetic lethality in SMARCA4-deleted cancers in vitro and in vivo.

    Combination of the MCL1 inhibitor PRT1419 and SMARCA2 degrader PRT3789 shows combinatorial benefit in SMARCA4 deleted lung cancer (AACR 2022)
    In a broader lung cancer cell line viability screen conducted with PRT1419, we observed that the presence of multiple, co-occurring alterations in SWI/SNF family members such as SMARCA4, ARID1A/B mutations and loss of SMARCA2 protein were associated with sensitivity to PRT1419. Based on these findings, preclinical evaluation of PRT1419 in other tumor types with recurrent SWI/SNF mutations is ongoing.
