Summary (written by the submitters)
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive breast cancer subtype and has the highest rate of recurrence1. The predominant standard of care for advanced TNBC is systemic chemotherapy with or without immunotherapy, however responses are typically short-lived1,2. Thus, there is an urgent need to develop more effective treatments.

PI3K pathway components represent plausible therapeutic targets, as approximately 70% of TNBCs have PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN alterations3–6. However, unlike hormone receptor-positive tumors, it is still unclear if or how PI3K pathway inhibitors will be effective in triple-negative disease7. Here we identify a promising AKT inhibitor-based therapeutic combination for TNBC. Specifically, we show that AKT inhibitors potently synergize with agents that suppress the histone methyltransferase, EZH2, and promote robust tumor regression in multiple TNBC models in vivo. AKT and EZH2 inhibitors exert these effects by first cooperatively driving basal-like TNBC cells into a more differentiated, luminal-like state, which cannot be effectively induced by either agent alone. Once differentiated, these agents kill TNBCs by hijacking signals that normally drive mammary gland involution. Finally, using machine learning approach, we developed a classifier that can be used for patient selection. Together these findings identify a promising therapeutic strategy for this highly aggressive tumor type and illustrate how deregulated epigenetic enzymes can insulate tumors from oncogenic vulnerabilities. These studies also reveal how developmental tissue-specific cell death pathways may be co-opted for therapeutic benefit.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE252382_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: Look for peak files (.bed, .narrowPeak) and signal tracks (.bigWig) among the supplementary files; the raw reads are on ENA.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1060317 and SRA study SRP480948. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
84 samples, each with a distinct title — no replicated groups

Any grouping that defines a comparison lives in the sample characteristics, which GEO records separately from the titles.

How we read this: Read from 84 sample titles: 84 distinct titles with little repetition. These groups are guessed from the sample names, not taken from the paper, so check them against the sample list below before relying on them.
