Abstract
Uveal melanoma (UM) is an intraocular cancer with propensity for liver metastases. The median overall survival (OS) for metastatic UM (MUM) is 1.07 years, with a reported range of 0.84-1.34. In primary UM, high cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 (CysLT<sub>1</sub>) expression associates with poor outcomes. CysLT<sub>1</sub> antagonists, quininib and 1,4-dihydroxy quininib, alter cancer hallmarks of primary and metastatic UM cell lines <i>in vitro</i>. Here, the clinical relevance of CysLT receptors and therapeutic potential of quininib analogs is elaborated in UM using preclinical <i>in vivo</i> orthotopic xenograft models and <i>ex vivo</i> patient samples. Immunohistochemical staining of an independent cohort (<i>n</i> = 64) of primary UM patients confirmed high CysLT<sub>1</sub> expression significantly associates with death from metastatic disease (<i>p</i> = 0.02; HR 2.28; 95% CI 1.08-4.78), solidifying the disease relevance of CysLT<sub>1</sub> in UM. In primary UM samples (<i>n</i> = 11) cultured as <i>ex vivo</i> explants, 1,4-dihydroxy quininib significantly alters the secretion of IL-13, IL-2, and TNF-α. In an orthotopic, cell line-derived xenograft model of MUM, 1,4-dihydroxy quininib administered intraperitoneally at 25 mg/kg significantly decreases ATP5B expression (<i>p</i> = 0.03), a marker of oxidative phosphorylation. In UM, high <i>ATP5F1B</i> is a poor prognostic indicator, whereas low <i>ATP5F1B</i>, in combination with disomy 3, correlates with an absence of metastatic disease in the TCGA-UM dataset. These preclinical data highlight the diagnostic potential of CysLT<sub>1</sub> and <i>ATP5F1B</i> in UM, and the therapeutic potential of 1,4-dihydroxy quininib with <i>ATP5F1B</i> as a companion diagnostic to treat MUM.
