Based on clinical presentation, glioblastoma (GBM) is stratified into primary and secondary types. The protein 53 (p53) pathway is functionally incapacitated in most GBMs by distinctive type-specific mechanisms. To model human gliomagenesis, we used aGFAP-HRasV12mouse model crossed into thep53ERTAMbackground, such that either one or both copies of endogenous p53 is replaced by a conditionalp53ERTAMallele. The p53ERTAMprotein can be toggled reversibly in vivo between wild-type and inactive conformations by administration or withdrawal of 4-hydroxytamoxifen (4-OHT), respectively. Surprisingly, gliomas that develop inGFAP-HRasV12;p53+/KImice abrogate the p53 pathway by mutating p19ARF/MDM2 while retaining wild-type p53 allele. Consequently, such tumors are unaffected by restoration of theirp53ERTAMallele. By contrast, gliomas arising inGFAP-HRasV12;p53KI/KImice develop in the absence of functional p53. Such tumors retain a functional p19ARF/MDM2-signaling pathway, and restoration ofp53ERTAMallele triggers p53-tumor–suppressor activity. Congruently, growth inhibition upon normalization of mutant p53 by a small molecule, Prima-1, in human GBM cultures also requires p14ARF/MDM2 functionality. Notably, the antitumoral efficacy of p53 restoration in tumor-bearingGFAP-HRasV12;p53KI/KIanimals depends on the duration and frequency of p53 restoration. Thus, intermittent exposure to p53ERTAMactivity mitigated the selective pressure to inactivate the p19ARF/MDM2/p53 pathway as a means of resistance, extending progression-free survival. Our results suggest that intermittent dosing regimes of drugs that restore wild-type tumor-suppressor function onto mutant, inactive p53 proteins will prove to be more efficacious than traditional chronic dosing by similarly reducing adaptive resistance.
