A plethora of agents are in early stages of development for colorectal cancer, including those that target the insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF1R) pathway. In the current environment of numerous cancer targets, it is imperative that patient selection strategies be developed with the intent of preliminary testing in the latter stages of phase I trials. The goal of this study was to develop and characterize predictive biomarkers for an IGF1R tyrosine kinase inhibitor, OSI-906, that could be applied in colorectal cancer (CRC)-specific studies of this agent. Twenty-seven CRC cell lines were exposed to OSI-906 and classified according to IC50 value as sensitive (< 1.5μM), or resistant (>5μM). Cell lines were subjected to immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry for effector proteins, IGFIR copy number by FISH, KRAS/BRAF/PI3K mutation status, and baseline gene array analysis. The most sensitive and resistant cell lines were utilized for gene array and pathway analyses, along with shRNA knockdown of highly ranked genes. The resulting integrated genomic classifier was then tested against 8 human CRC explants in vivo. Baseline gene array data from cell lines and xenografts was used to develop a k-Top Scoring Pair (k-TSP) classifier, which in combination with IGFIR FISH and KRAS mutational status, was able to predict with 100% accuracy a test set of patient-derived CRC xenografts. These results indicate that an integrated approach to the development of individualized therapy is feasible and should be applied early in the development of novel agents, ideally in conjunction with late-stage phase I trials.
