3 Molecular Oncology Research Center – Barretos Cancer Hospital

Introduction

The Molecular Oncology Research Center “Centro de Pesquisa em Oncologia Molecular”

(CPOM) was inaugurated on August 19, 2010, by the former Minister of Health, Dr. José

Temporão. The CPOM is framed at the Institute for Research and Education “Instituto de

Ensino e Pesquisa” (IEP) of Barretos Cancer Hospital, which in conjunction with other clinical

departments of the Hospital, as well as the Department of Clinical Research and Post-

graduation in Oncology, are the basic foundations in developing the future of oncology

medicine - personalized medicine.

The CPOM is installed in the new building of the IEP, with an area of 1,000 m2. The project

design was based on the most modern research centers, emphasizing the convenience of

movement, sharing of technological resources and the supervision of experience

professionals. The complex infrastructure of CPOM counts with state-of-the-art laboratories

of cytogenetics, molecular genetics, and molecular and cellular biology, allowing the

development of different research lines of in the field of molecular oncology.

During 2012, the second year of CPOM, we observed the growing of the projects generated

in the first year, and the implementation of numerous and varied scientific partnerships. A

significant number of researchers joined the Center, increasing its multidisciplinary, critical

mass and consequently productivity.

This year, the Hospital was included in the Outreach Program of St. Jude’s Children Hospital,

which will bring significant opportunities for research in pediatric oncology and has also

approved to be part of the International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC), an

international initiative to performed large scale next sequencing generation of cancer

worldwide, which puts the CPOM as a partner in a select group of institutions.

3) Research Lines

Cellular Signaling

One of the hallmarks of cancers is the oncogenic upregulation of the signaling cascades that

govern the transduction of extracellular growth factors to cellular nuclear response. Among

these plethora of players, receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) and intracellular MAPK,

PI3KCA/AKT and JAK/STAT pathways, have a crucial impact in cancer development, behavior

and currently, there is also an attractive therapeutic target. Our group is focused in evaluate

the major genetic alterations that disrupt these cellular circuits, and understand their

impact on patient prognosis and therapeutic response. Additionally, using tumor cell line

and primary culture models we intend to understand their function and biological impact on

cancer.

Biomarkers

We now know that cancer is a disease of the genome and this new vision has introduced a

new paradigm. In this scenario, the genome of the cancer can be more objectively in the

stratification of patients with cancer, leading to the emerging personalized medicine in

oncology. In order to achieve this aim, it is necessary to identify from the myriad of cancer

genomic changes, which ones have a clinical value - biomarkers. The diagnosis based on the

genome, it should present a high sensitivity and specificity, and detection of these

biomarkers should be possible not only in tumor tissue, but also extended to other body

fluids such as plasma, serum, urine, saliva, strokes cavity, allowing so early detection and

the ability to monitor tumor development. With a huge bank of tissues and fluids of cancer

patients in Barretos Hospital of Cancer (CrioBio) and a detailed medical history, our group

intends to validate potential biomarkers known in the Brazilian population, as well as

identify new biomarkers.

Functional Genomics of Cancer

The genomic science aims to understand how genes and genetic information is organized

within the genome (structural genomics) and how the organization determines its function

(functional genomics). The functional genomics applied to cancer aims to evaluate

8 Molecular Oncology Research Center – Barretos Cancer Hospital

systematically and simultaneously, the expression of genes (mRNA), microRNAs or proteins

to a better understanding of the molecular genetic basis governing the process of

carcinogenesis. Our research group intends to use the functional genomics resources for

transcriptional signatures mRNA and microRNAs expression in order to point out potential

molecular biomarkers of tumor progression. Additionally, using tumor cell line we can

validate the miRNA-mRNA interactions through functional tests using silencing of miRNAs

(using anti-miRNAs or anti-MIRs) and thus assess the impact of these new biomarkers in the

progression cancer.

Environmental factors and Cancer

The exposure to different types of environmental factors such as: food, occupational

conditions, medications, hormones, radiation, viruses, bacteria, chemical agents, air

pollution and water are intrinsically linked to the occurrence of cancer in exposed

populations. The determination of the potential cancer risk in the exposure to

environmental factors can contribute to public policies and preventive measures. Therefore,

our research group aims to assess populations exposed to chemical or environmental

factors using genetic biomarkers. Considering the susceptibility of each individual to

metabolize carcinogenic agents, we intend to reveal the molecular mechanisms involved in

the resistance to these compounds, polymorphisms, gene-environment interactions and its

implications in carcinogenesis.

Hereditary Cancer

Several cancers developed in higher than normal frequencies may be related to inherited

genetic alterations, present in predisposed families. Around 10% of most cancer types are

due to the presence of germline mutations, leading to an increased lifetime cancer risk. The

recognition of a hereditary cancer-affected individual is crucial for the identification of other

at-risk family members and their inclusion in cancer risk reduction strategies. The focus of

our research group is to prematurely identify, characterize and analyze, clinically and

molecularly, these at-risk individuals. Genetic modifiers that may contribute to an increased

cancer development risk, such as genetic polymorphisms, rearrangements, copy number

variations are also part of our research work.

-Epigenetic

Epigenetic are related to reversible events that do not produce modification in the genomic

DNA sequence, but rather alters its phenotype, influencing mechanisms related to gene

expression. Methylation is the most common epigenetic event, being a very important

biologic process involved in gene silencing. The study of hypermethylation can give vital

information on the understanding of carcinogenesis, as well as the evaluation of its pattern

can be used as a biomarker for diagnosis, treatment planning and prognosis of an individual.

Pediatric Tumor Biology

Although considered rare, childhood cancer is the leading cause of disease-related mortality

in children. Cancer in the childhood often is more devastating and aggressive than their

counterparts in adults. Despite the progress in cure rates and survival improvement

achieved in the last Decades, there is a group of tumors that still do not respond to any

available standard treatment. Our goal is to apply the knowledge and tools of molecular

biology to clarify and understand the biology and pathogenesis of pediatric tumors, in order

to identify potential biological markers that may support diagnosis and/or indicate

prognosis of pediatric patients. As well, we are looking for the altered pathways/genes that

can be targets for new therapy strategies
