Abstract
AIMS To examine the association of baseline patient characteristics with study outcomes in people with type 2 diabetes receiving insulin glargine 300 U/mL (Gla-300) versus glargine 100 U/mL (Gla-100), over a 6-month period. METHODS A post hoc patient-level meta-analysis using data from three multicenter, randomized, open-label, parallel-group, phase 3a studies of similar design, in people previously receiving either basal and prandial insulin, basal insulin + oral antihyperglycemic drugs, or no prior insulin (EDITION 1, 2 and 3, respectively). The endpoints, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), hypoglycemia, body weight change, and insulin dose were investigated by subgroups: age (< 65 and ≥ 65 years), body mass index (BMI; < 30 and ≥ 30 kg/m2), age at onset (< 40, 40-50, and > 50 years), and diabetes duration (< 10 and ≥ 10 years). RESULTS Reduction in HbA1c was comparable between insulins, regardless of subgroup. The lower risk of ≥ 1 nocturnal (00:00-05:59 h) confirmed (≤ 3.9 mmol/L [≤ 70 mg/dL]) or severe hypoglycemic event with Gla-300 versus Gla-100 was also unaffected by participant characteristics. While heterogeneity of treatment effect between diabetes duration subgroups was seen for the risk of ≥ 1 confirmed (≤ 3.9 mmol/L [≤ 70 mg/dL]) or severe hypoglycemic event at any time (24 h), treatment effect consistently favored Gla-300; no evidence of heterogeneity was observed for the other subgroups. Annualized rates of confirmed (≤ 3.9 mmol/L [≤ 70 mg/dL]) or severe hypoglycemia and body weight change were not influenced by participant characteristics; a similar pattern was observed with insulin dose. CONCLUSIONS Comparable glycemic control was observed with Gla-300 versus Gla-100, with less hypoglycemia, regardless of age, BMI, age at onset or diabetes duration. FUNDING Sanofi.

Abstract
Aims To evaluate the effect of concomitant dipeptidyl peptidase IV inhibitor (DPPIVi) use on efficacy and safety of insulin glargine 300 U/mL (Gla-300) versus glargine 100 U/mL (Gla-100) in people with type 2 diabetes on oral antihyperglycaemic drugs. Methods A post hoc patient-level meta-analysis was performed using data from EDITION 2 (basal insulin [N = 811]) and EDITION 3 (insulin-naïve [N = 878]), multicentre, randomised, open-label, parallel-group, phase 3a trials of similar design. Endpoints analysed included HbA1c, hypoglycaemia and adverse events, investigated in subgroups of participants with and without concomitant DPPIVi use. Results Of 1689 participants randomised, 107 (13%, Gla-300) and 133 (16%, Gla-100) received DPPIVi therapy. The least squares mean change in HbA1c (baseline to month 6) was comparable between treatment groups, irrespective of DPPIVi use (no evidence of heterogeneity of treatment effect across subgroups, p = 0.753), although group sizes were unbalanced. The cumulative mean number of confirmed (≤3.9 mmol/L [≤70 mg/dL]) or severe hypoglycaemic events, and the risk and annualised rate of such events, were consistently lower for Gla-300 than Gla-100 during the night (between 00:00 and 05:59 h) or at any time of day (24 h period), irrespective of DPPIVi use. Severe hypoglycaemia occurred in 8/838 and 10/844 participants in the Gla-300 and Gla-100 groups, respectively, and was not affected by DPPIVi use. The adverse event profile was similar between treatment groups and DPPIVi subgroups. Conclusions Glycaemic control with Gla-300 was comparable to Gla-100, with less hypoglycaemia during the night and at any time of day (24 h), irrespective of concomitant DPPIVi use.

Abstract
Abstract
Lysosome-associated membrane protein 1 (LAMP1), one of the most abundant protein expressed at the membrane of lysosomes, is a type I transmembrane protein involved in the maintenance of lysosome membrane integrity and phagolysosome formation. In activated lymphocytes LAMP1 is described as a marker of degranulation.
Unexpectedly, by immunizing mice with a colon patient-derived xenograft (PDX) followed by a screening of monoclonal antibodies (mAb) by immunohistochemistry (IHC) for selection of antibodies that specifically stain tumor plasma membrane and de-orphaning by Immunoprecipitation-Mass spectrometry, we identified LAMP1 as the target of several antibodies. One of them, Ab-1, showed binding to the luminal domain of human LAMP1 with nM affinity. Crystal structure of its Fab with LAMP1 extracellular domain, showed that the epitope was non-linear, not a glycotope and spanned between position 29 to195.
LAMP1 expression was further documented by IHC with Ab-1, showing limited cell surface expression in normal tissues while moderate to high plasma membrane expression was found in a number of breast, including TNBC, colorectal, gastric, prostate, lung and ovary tumors.
The humanized Ab-1 mAb, humAb-1, was shown to display rapid cycling after binding to LAMP1 at the surface of colo205 cell line, allowing internalization and processing of a number of LAMP1/antibody complex 10 folds higher than the number of LAMP1 molecules at the cell surface.
humAb-1 was conjugated to DM4 maytansinoid derivative using an SPDB cleavable linker to generate a new antibody-drug conjugate, SAR428926, for the treatment of patients with cell surface LAMP1-positive tumors.
Conjugated and naked antibody displayed similar affinities for LAMP1. SAR428926 killed tumor cell lines (engineered to express cell surface LAMP1) in the sub-nM range. In contrast, no target-mediated cytotoxicity was observed when SAR428926 was incubated with normal cells, including resting or activated lymphocytes.
PDX models reflecting the pattern and level of LAMP1 expression at the surface of human tumors were selected to evaluate SAR428926 in vivo efficacy. Outstanding in vivo activity was observed in different indications, including TNBC, lung and colon PDXs, with complete regressions after a single administration at 5 mg/kg.
These encouraging preclinical data have prompted the initiation of IND-enabling studies with the goal to progress humAb-1-ADC to the clinic in patients with tumors expressing LAMP1 at the cell surface. The First-In-Human trial has been initiated in October 2015.

Abstract
With the ongoing need to improve therapy for non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) there has been increasing interest in developing reliable preclinical models to test novel therapeutics. Patient-derived tumor xenografts (PDX) are considered to be interesting candidates. However, the establishment of such model systems requires highly specialized research facilities and introduces logistic challenges. We aimed to establish an extensive well-characterized panel of NSCLC xenograft models in the context of a long-distance research network after careful control of the preanalytical steps. One hundred fresh surgically resected NSCLC specimens were shipped in survival medium at room temperature from a hospital-integrated biobank to animal facilities. Within 24 h post-surgery, tumor fragments were subcutaneously xenografted into immunodeficient mice. PDX characterization was performed by histopathological, immunohistochemical, aCGH and next-generation sequencing approaches. For this model system, the tumor take rate was 35%, with higher rates for squamous carcinoma (60%) than for adenocarcinoma (13%). Patients for whom PDX tumors were obtained had a significantly shorter disease-free survival (DFS) compared to patients for whom no PDX tumors (P = 0.039) were obtained. We established a large panel of PDX NSCLC models with a high frequency of mutations (29%) in EGFR, KRAS, NRAS, MEK1, BRAF, PTEN, and PI3KCA genes and with gene amplification (20%) of c-MET and FGFR1. This new patient-derived NSCLC xenograft collection, established regardless of the considerable time required and the distance between the clinic and the animal facilities, recapitulated the histopathology and molecular diversity of NSCLC and provides stable and reliable preclinical models for human lung cancer research.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: The humanization of mice with various tissues named Chi-mice® aimed to reproduce the human situation to be more predictive than conventional models. Despite significant progress in identifying malignancy of cancer cells, a more detailed understanding of tumor generation is needed. Xenograft of tumor cells into immunodeficient rodents has constituted the major preclinical screen for the development of new drugs. These models have identified efficacious agents, but their chemosensitivity, genetic drift and clonal selection induced by cell culture have been part of the high attrition rate observed in the clinical development. Patient-derived tumor xenograft (PDX) obtained in xenografting fresh patient tumor samples in mice are reported as being more predictive to the clinical situation in maintaining the histopathology and molecular diversity of the patient tumors.
Methods: The PDXs collection has been set up under ethical agreement with informed consent of patients. The patients have been screened for absence of HIV, HBV and HCV. The anonymized patient's clinical history and tissue banking (including normal tissue when available) are centralized in our internal biological resource center. Tumor samples were freshly implanted in nude or SCID mice.
Results:
PDX Passage 0 Passage 1 Take rate (%) Breast 152 10 6 Lung 18 7 39 Bladder 31 11 35 Liver 31 4 13 Stomach 17 7 41 Kidney 28 8 29 Pancreas 21 4 19 Prostate 57 5 9 Total 355 56 Xenograft Passage 0 Lymphoma Established model SCID mice 85 16 (19%) 19 (22%) Nude mice 270 0 (0%) 37 (14%)
Cryopreservation of the PDX is performed at early passages allowing using these PDX only at low passage. The histopathology, EGFR, PSA, AR, HER, ER and PR statute for lung, prostate and breast carcinoma and tumor growth characteristics of these PDX are being performed. Lymphoma characterization was performed using immunohistochemistry (hCD20, m/hKi67). Lymphoma detection, probably related to EBV infection, leads to switch to nude mice for xenografting.Conclusion: To create a highly diversified panel of PDX, we organized a global process from multiple centers. These PDX are currently being used in preclinical development of new therapies and clinical positioning including biomarkers identification.

Abstract
PURPOSE Patient-derived xenograft models are considered to represent the heterogeneity of human cancers and advanced preclinical models. Our consortium joins efforts to extensively develop and characterize a new collection of patient-derived colorectal cancer (CRC) models. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN From the 85 unsupervised surgical colorectal samples collection, 54 tumors were successfully xenografted in immunodeficient mice and rats, representing 35 primary tumors, 5 peritoneal carcinoses and 14 metastases. Histologic and molecular characterization of patient tumors, first and late passages on mice includes the sequence of key genes involved in CRC (i.e., APC, KRAS, TP53), aCGH, and transcriptomic analysis. RESULTS This comprehensive characterization shows that our collection recapitulates the clinical situation about the histopathology and molecular diversity of CRC. Moreover, patient tumors and corresponding models are clustering together allowing comparison studies between clinical and preclinical data. Hence, we conducted pharmacologic monotherapy studies with standard of care for CRC (5-fluorouracil, oxaliplatin, irinotecan, and cetuximab). Through this extensive in vivo analysis, we have shown the loss of human stroma cells after engraftment, observed a metastatic phenotype in some models, and finally compared the molecular profile with the drug sensitivity of each tumor model. Through an experimental cetuximab phase II trial, we confirmed the key role of KRAS mutation in cetuximab resistance. CONCLUSIONS This new collection could bring benefit to evaluate novel targeted therapeutic strategies and to better understand the basis for sensitivity or resistance of tumors from individual patients.

Abstract
Targeting tumor vasculature is an emerging strategy in cancer treatment. Promising results have been shown in preclinical studies when vascular disrupting agents (VDAs) are used in combination with other anticancer therapies. Because radiation therapy with concurrent cisplatin or cetuximab has become standard treatment for patients with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), we investigated whether the VDA ombrabulin (AVE8062) could improve the antitumor activity of radiation plus cisplatin and radiation plus cetuximab combinations. HNSCC HEP2 or FaDu tumor bearing mice were treated with ombrabulin, cisplatin, cetuximab, local radiation therapy or combinations of these treatments. Ombrabulin attenuated tumor growth of HEP2 and FaDu xenografts compared to control tumors. A more pronounced tumor growth delay and tumor regression were induced when ombrabulin was added to local irradiation, cisplatin or cetuximab in FaDu tumors compared to single agent treatments. Finally, triple agent therapies combining ombrabulin, irradiation, and either cisplatin or cetuximab were more effective than double combination treatment regimens and increased tumor growth delay in both HEP2 and FaDu tumor models. Of note, complete tumor regression was achieved in FaDu tumor model for the triple combination including platinum. Immunohistochemistry on FaDu tumors demonstrated a specificity of ombrabulin towards intratumoral vessels, in contrast to peritumoral vasculature. Our results provide a rationale for the use of ombrabulin in combination with two standard treatment regimens that are concurrent cisplatin-based chemoradiation and cetuximab plus ionizing radiation therapies, for the treatment of HNSCC.

Abstract
Sorting nexins are a large family of proteins that contain the phosphoinositide-binding Phox homology (PX) domain. A number of sorting nexins are known to bind to PtdIns3P, which mediates their localization to membranes of the endocytic pathway. We show here that sorting nexin 5 (SNX5) can be recruited to two distinct membrane compartments. In non-stimulated cells, the PX domain was independently targeted to endosomal structures and colocalized with full-length SNX5. The membrane binding of the PX domain was inhibited by the PI 3-kinase inhibitor, wortmannin. Although SNX5 colocalized with a fluid-phase marker and was found predominantly within a PtdIns3P-rich endosomal domain, very little colocalization was observed between SNX5 and the PtdIns3P-binding protein, EEA1. Using liposome-based binding assays, we have shown that the PX domain of SNX5 interacts not only with PtdIns3P but also with PtdIns3,4P2. In response to EGF stimulation, either the SNX5-PX domain or full-length SNX5 was rapidly recruited to the plasma membrane. The localization of SNX1, which does not bind PtdIns3,4P2, was unaffected by EGF signalling. Therefore, SNX5 is localized to a subdomain of the early endosome distinct from EEA1 and, following EGF stimulation and elevation of PtdIns3,4P2, is also transiently recruited to the plasma membrane. These results indicate that SNX5 may have functions not only associated with endosomal sorting but also with the phosphoinositide-signalling pathway.

Abstract
The secretory and endocytic pathways of eukaryotic organelles consist of multiple compartments, each with a unique set of proteins and lipids. Specific transport mechanisms are required to direct molecules to defined locations and to ensure that the identity, and hence function, of individual compartments are maintained. The localisation of proteins to specific membranes is complex and involves multiple interactions. The recent dramatic advances in understanding the molecular mechanisms of membrane transport has been due to the application of a multi-disciplinary approach, integrating membrane biology, genetics, imaging, protein and lipid biochemistry and structural biology. The aim of this review is to summarise the general principles of protein sorting in the secretory and endocytic pathways and to highlight the dynamic nature of these processes. The molecular mechanisms involved in this transport along the secretory and endocytic pathways are discussed along with the signals responsible for targeting proteins to different intracellular locations.

Abstract
Previously we have demonstrated an impairment in the activity of alpha-L-fucosidase in colon tumours. In order to establish an in vitro model to study this enzyme in colon cancer, we have determined the activity and properties of the enzyme during the differentiation of HT-29 colon cancer cells. Cultures were committed to differentiate into enterocyte-like cells by placing them in a culture medium without glucose for 18-21 days. The state of differentiation was evaluated by assaying the activity of enterocytic marker enzymes, and the acquisition of enterocyte morphology was assessed by electron microscopy. The alpha-L-fucosidase activity was determined using a fluorometric method. Intracellular levels of alpha-L-fucosidase activity are lower in non-differentiated cells (3.0 +/- 1.01 U/mg) than in differentiated ones (9.2 +/- 4.09 U/mg) (P < 0.001). This variation is not due to a greater secretion of the enzyme to the culture medium, and properties such as pH optimum or the affinity towards substrate are not dependent on differentiation. The enzyme however, is more stable at acidic pH and at high temperatures, and V(max) is higher in differentiated cells. Moreover, in undifferentiated cells the enzyme is mainly in a monomeric form whereas multimeric forms of the enzyme appear only upon differentiation. Most of these changes are very similar to those previously observed between normal colon tissue and colon tumours. Thus, we suggest that differentiation of HT-29 colon cancer cells could be used as a model to study the alterations of the enzyme alpha-L-fucosidase during the progression of the tumoural process.

Abstract
The expression of different sialoglycoconjugates and fucoglycoconjugates in normal mucosa and adenocarcinoma samples from 43 colorectal cancer patients was investigated by using specific lectins and applying a semiquantitative analysis. A pronounced decrease in the intracellular binding of the Maackia amurensis lectin, which recognizes alpha(2,3)-linked sialic acid residues, was found in the tumoral tissue. In contrast, a significant increase in the staining with the Sambucus nigra lectin (SNA I), which binds to alpha(2,6)-linked sialic acid residues, was detected in the epithelial cells as well as in the mucins from tumors. No significant differences in the reactivity with the Aleuria aurantia lectin, which recognizes the sequence Fuc(alpha1,6)GlcNAc, between normal and malignant colorectal tissues were detected. Furthermore, the correlation between lectin-binding profiles and the prognosis of colorectal cancer patients was examined. After an average postoperative follow-up period of 31 months, patients with tumors showing a strong SNA I staining presented a greater probability of disease recurrence. This result suggests that the intensity of staining with SNA I could be a valid parameter for predicting recurrence in colorectal cancer.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) is a proinflammatory cytokine secreted by activated macrophages. In this study, we examined the intracellular distribution and trafficking of TNF-alpha. Immunofluorescence and immunogold localization demonstrated that in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW264 macrophages, the greatest concentration of TNF-alpha is found in the perinuclear Golgi complex. Staining of the Golgi complex appeared 20 min after activation of cells and persisted for 2-12 h, and TNF-alpha appeared on the cell surface only transiently during this time. The rate of disappearance of Golgi staining correlated with the release of the cleaved, mature TNF-alpha into the medium. Pulse chase labeling and subcellular fractionation studies indicated that both 26-kDa and 17-kDa forms of TNF-alpha may be present at the level of the Golgi complex. Post-Golgi trafficking of TNF-alpha was modulated by agents that disrupt the cytoskeleton. Interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), which primes macrophages for TNF-alpha-dependent cellular cytotoxicity, potentiated the effect of LPS by sustaining enhanced intracellular pools of TNF-alpha and also promoted redistribution of TNF-alpha into post-Golgi vesicular compartments. We propose that the primary pool of biologically active TNF-alpha in activated macrophages is held in the Golgi complex and that the cytokine is recruited directly from this intracellular pool for release in response to tumor cells or pathogens.
