SLC7A11 Is a Superior Determinant of APR-246 (Eprenetapopt) Response than TP53 Mutation Status
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
APR-246 (eprenetapopt) is in clinical development with a focus on hematologic malignancies and is promoted as a mutant-p53 reactivation therapy. Currently, the detection of at least one TP53 mutation is an inclusion criterion for patient selection into most APR-246 clinical trials. Preliminary results from our phase Ib/II clinical trial investigating APR-246 combined with doublet chemotherapy [cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)] in metastatic esophageal cancer, together with previous preclinical studies, indicate that TP53 mutation status alone may not be a sufficient biomarker for APR-246 response. This study aims to identify a robust biomarker for response to APR-246. Correlation analysis of the PRIMA-1 activity (lead compound to APR-246) with mutational status, gene expression, protein expression, and metabolite abundance across over 700 cancer cell lines (CCL) was performed. Functional validation and a boutique siRNA screen of over 850 redox-related genes were also conducted. TP53 mutation status was not consistently predictive of response to APR-246. The expression of SLC7A11, the cystine/glutamate transporter, was identified as a superior determinant of response to APR-246. Genetic regulators of SLC7A11, including ATF4, MDM2, wild-type p53, and c-Myc, were confirmed to also regulate cancer-cell sensitivity to APR-246. In conclusion, SLC7A11 expression is a broadly applicable determinant of sensitivity to APR-246 across cancer and should be utilized as the key predictive biomarker to stratify patients for future clinical investigation of APR-246.

SLC7A11 expression is a superior determinant of response to eprenetapopt across cancer lineages, surpassing TP53 mutation status and p53 protein levels.
“Recently, we demonstrated that the expression of SLC7A11, which encodes the functional subunit of the cystine-glutamate antiporter, system xc−, is a superior determinant of response to eprenetapopt across cancer lineages, surpassing both TP53 mutation status and p53 protein levels (6).”

GSH depletion and/or factors that regulate GSH availability are central determinants of eprenetapopt activity in cancer cells, as opposed to p53 and associated apoptotic machinery.
“Our work supports previous findings reporting that GSH depletion and/or factors that regulate GSH availability are central determinants of eprenetapopt activity in cancer cells (6–8), as opposed to p53 and associated apoptotic machinery.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
