BackgroundDiffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is a rare and fatal pediatric brain cancer without cure. Seeking therapeutic strategies is still a major challenge in DIPG research. Previous study has shown that dysregulation of G1/S cell cycle checkpoint was common in DIPG and this dysregulation is even more enriched in the H3.3K27 M mutant subgroup. Here we assess potential anti-tumor efficacy of palbociclib, a specific and cytostatic inhibitor of CDK4/6, on high grade H3.3-K27 M-mutant DIPGsin vitroandin vivo.MethodsWe established patient-derived cell lines from treatment-naïve specimens. All the lines have H3.3K27 M mutation. We used a range of biologicalin vitroassays to assess the effect of palbociclib on growth of DIPGs. Palbociclib activity was also assayedin vivoagainst three independent DIPG orthotropic xenografts model.FindingsDysregulation of G1/S cell cycle checkpoint is enriched in these DIPGs. Then, we showed that depletion ofCDK4orCDK6inhibits DIPG cells growth and blocks G1/S transition. Furthermore, palbociclib effectively repressed DIPG growthin vitro. Transcriptome analysis showed that palbociclib not only blocks G1/S transition, it also blocks other oncogenic targets such as MYC. Finally, palbociclib activity was assayedin vivoagainst DIPG orthotropic xenografts to demonstrate the high efficiency of blocking tumor growth.InterpretationOur findings thus revealed that palbociclib could be the therapeutic strategy for treatment-naïve DIPG with H3.3K27 M mutation.FundBeijing Municipal Administration of Hospitals Clinical Medicine Development of Special Funding Support, Beijing Municipal Natural Science Foundation, Ministry of Science and Technology of China, and National Natural Science Foundation of China.
