Abstract PURPOSE: AXL receptor tyrosine kinase has been described as a relevant molecular marker and a key player in invasiveness, especially in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: We evaluate the anti-tumor efficacy of the anti-AXL monoclonal antibody 20G7-D9 in several TNBC cell xenografts or patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models and decipher the underlying mechanisms. In a dataset of 254 basal-like breast cancer samples, genes correlated with AXL expression are enriched in EMT, migration and invasion signaling pathways. RESULTS: Treatment with 20G7-D9 inhibited tumor growth and bone metastasis formation in AXL-positive TNBC cell xenografts or PDX, but not in AXL-negative PDX, highlighting AXL role in cancer growth and invasion. In vitro, stimulation of AXL-positive cancer cells by its ligand GAS6 induced the expression of several EMT associated genes (SNAIL, SLUG and VIM) through an intracellular signaling implicating the transcription factor FRA-1, important in cell invasion and plasticity, and increased their migration/invasion capacity. 20G7-D9 induced AXL degradation and inhibited all AXL/GAS6-dependent cell signaling implicated in EMT and in cell migration/invasion. CONCLUSIONS: The anti-AXL antibody 20G7-D9 represents a promising therapeutic strategy in TNBC with mesenchymal features by inhibiting AXL-dependent EMT, tumor growth and metastasis formation.
