Development of small molecule-drug conjugates based on derivatives of natural proteasome inhibitors that exhibit selectivity for PSMA-expressing cancer cells. Bioorg Med Chem 2024; 108:117773. [PMID: 38850999 DOI: 10.1016/j.bmc.2024.117773] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2024] [Revised: 05/16/2024] [Accepted: 05/17/2024] [Indexed: 06/10/2024]
Abstract
In this study, we have developedsmall molecule drug conjugates (SMDCs)consisting ofa prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) ligandand syringolin derivatives, which are potent proteasome inhibitors, to selectively deliver syringolin derivatives to prostate cancer cells. Two parent compounds were used for syringolin derivatives with different linkage sites. These SMDCs exhibited PSMA-expressing cell-selective cytotoxicity and they could potentially be used for safer treatment of cancer.

Abstract
More than 1.9 million new colorectal cancer (CRC) cases and 935000 deaths were estimated to occur worldwide in 2020, representing about one in ten cancer cases and deaths. Overall, colorectal ranks third in incidence, but second in mortality. More than half of the patients are in advanced stages at diagnosis. Treatment options are complex because of the heterogeneity of the patient population, including different molecular subtypes. Treatments have included conventional fluorouracil-based chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, etc. In recent years, with the development of genetic testing technology, more and more targeted drugs have been applied to the treatment of CRC, which has further prolonged the survival of metastatic CRC patients.

Abstract
Signal regulatory protein alpha (SIRPα) is an immune inhibitory receptor on myeloid cells including macrophages and dendritic cells, which binds to CD47, a ubiquitous self-associated molecule. SIRPα-CD47 interaction is exploited by cancer cells to suppress anti-tumor activity of myeloid cells, therefore emerging as a novel immune checkpoint for cancer immunotherapy. In blood cancer, several SIRPα-CD47 blockers have shown encouraging monotherapy activity. However, the anti-tumor activity of SIRPα-CD47 blockers in solid tumors seems limited, suggesting the need for combination therapies to fully exploit the myeloid immune checkpoint in solid tumors. Here we tested whether combination of SIRPα-CD47 blocker with antibody-drug conjugate bearing a topoisomerase I inhibitor DXd (DXd-ADC) would enhance anti-tumor activity in solid tumors. To this end, DS-1103a, a newly developed anti-human SIRPα antibody (Ab), was assessed for the potential combination benefit with datopotamab deruxtecan (Dato-DXd) and trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd), DXd-ADCs targeting human trophoblast cell-surface antigen 2 and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2, respectively. DS-1103a inhibited SIRPα-CD47 interaction and enhanced antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis of Dato-DXd and T-DXd against human cancer cells. In a whole cancer cell vaccination model, vaccination with DXd-treated cancer cells led to activation of tumor-specific T cells when combined with an anti-mouse SIRPα (anti-mSIRPα) Ab, implying the benefit of combining DXd-ADCs with anti-SIRPα Ab on anti-tumor immunity. Furthermore, in syngeneic mouse models, both Dato-DXd and T-DXd combination with anti-mSIRPα Ab showed stronger anti-tumor activity over the monotherapies. Taken together, this study provides a preclinical rationale of novel therapies for solid tumors combining SIRPα-CD47 blockers with DXd-ADCs.

Abstract
Cervical cancer is the second most prevalent malignancy affecting women's health globally, and the number of morbidity and mortality from cervical cancer continues to rise worldwide. The 5-year survival rate of patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer is significantly reduced, and existing treatment modalities have low efficacy and high adverse effects, so there is a strong need for new, effective, and well-tolerated therapies. Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are a new targeted therapeutic modality that can efficiently kill tumor cells. This review aims to summarize the composition, research, and development history and mechanism of action of ADCs, to review the research progress of ADCs in the treatment of cervical cancer, and to summarize and prospect the application of ADCs.

Abstract
Human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer (BC) represents nearly 20% of all breast tumors. Historically, these patients had a high rate of relapse and dismal prognosis. The advent of HER2-targeting monoclonal antibodies such as trastuzumab followed by pertuzumab had improved the prognosis of HER2-positive metastatic BC. More recently, antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are now reshaping the treatment paradigm of solid tumors, especially breast cancer. Tratsuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) was one of the first ADC developed in oncology and was approved for the management of HER2-positive metastatic BC. In a head-to-head comparison, trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) defeated T-DM1 as a second-line treatment. The efficacy of ADCs is counterbalanced by the appearance of acquired resistance to these agents. In this paper, we summarize the mechanisms of action and resistance of T-DM1 and T-DXd, as well as their clinical efficacy. Additionally, we also discuss potential strategies for addressing resistance to ADC.

Abstract
The greatest challenge in cancer therapy is to eradicate cancer cells with minimal damage to normal cells. Targeted therapy has been developed to meet that challenge, showing a substantially increased therapeutic index compared with conventional cancer therapies. Antibodies are important members of the family of targeted therapeutic agents because of their extraordinarily high specificity to the target antigens. Therapeutic antibodies use a range of mechanisms that directly or indirectly kill the cancer cells. Early antibodies were developed to directly antagonize targets on cancer cells. This was followed by advancements in linker technologies that allowed the production of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) that guide cytotoxic payloads to the cancer cells. Improvement in our understanding of the biology of T cells led to the production of immune checkpoint-inhibiting antibodies that indirectly kill the cancer cells through activation of the T cells. Even more recently, bispecific antibodies were synthetically designed to redirect the T cells of a patient to kill the cancer cells. In this Review, we summarize the different approaches used by therapeutic antibodies to target cancer cells. We discuss their mechanisms of action, the structural basis for target specificity, clinical applications and the ongoing research to improve efficacy and reduce toxicity.

Trastuzumab deruxtecan in patients with solid tumours harbouring specific activating HER2 mutations (DESTINY-PanTumor01): an international, phase 2 study. Lancet Oncol 2024; 25:707-719. [PMID: 38710187 DOI: 10.1016/s1470-2045(24)00140-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2023] [Revised: 03/01/2024] [Accepted: 03/05/2024] [Indexed: 05/08/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Trastuzumab deruxtecan is a HER2-directed antibody-drug conjugate approved by the US Food and Drug Administration and the European Medicines Agency for HER2-mutant non-small-cell lung cancer. Few treatment options exist for patients with HER2-mutant solid tumours beyond lung cancers. We investigated trastuzumab deruxtecan in metastatic solid tumours with specific activating HER2 mutations. METHODS In this open-label, phase 2, basket study done in 29 centres in Asia, Europe, and North America, we investigated trastuzumab deruxtecan (5·4 mg/kg every 3 weeks by intravenous infusion) in patients aged 18 years or older with unresectable or metastatic solid tumours with specific activating HER2 mutations, an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 or 1, and disease progression following previous treatment (previous HER2-targeted therapy was permitted) or with no satisfactory alternative treatment options. The primary endpoint was confirmed objective response rate by independent central review. Anti-tumour activity and safety were analysed in all patients who received at least one dose of trastuzumab deruxtecan. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04639219, and is active but no longer recruiting. FINDINGS Between Dec 30, 2020, and Jan 25, 2023, 102 patients (62 [61%] female and 40 [39%] male; median age 66·5 years [IQR 58-72]; 51 [50%] White, two [2%] Black or African American, 38 [37%] Asian, and 11 [11%] did not have race information reported) with solid tumours with activating HER2 mutations received trastuzumab deruxtecan and were included in the anti-tumour activity and safety analyses sets. Patients had a median of three (IQR 2-4) previous treatment regimens. The median duration of follow-up was 8·61 months (IQR 3·71-12·68). The objective response rate by independent central review was 29·4% (95% CI 20·8-39·3; 30 of 102 patients). 52 (51%) patients had a treatment-emergent adverse event of grade 3 or worse; the most common events (in ≥5% of patients) were anaemia (16 [16%]) and neutrophil count decreased (eight [8%]). Drug-related treatment-emergent serious adverse events occurred in ten (10%) patients. Adjudicated drug-related interstitial lung disease or pneumonitis of any grade occurred in 11 patients (11%; three grade 1, five grade 2, one grade 3, and two grade 5); there were two (2%) cases of fatal adjudicated drug-related interstitial lung disease or pneumonitis. INTERPRETATION Trastuzumab deruxtecan showed anti-tumour activity and durable responses in heavily pretreated patients across multiple tumour types with activating HER2 mutations, with no new safety signals. Prespecified HER2 mutations might be targeted by HER2-directed antibody-drug conjugates and our findings support further investigation of trastuzumab deruxtecan in the pan-tumour setting.

Abstract
Gastroesophageal cancers (GECs) represent a significant clinical challenge. For early resectable GEC, the integration of immune checkpoint inhibitors into the perioperative chemotherapy and chemoradiation treatment paradigms are being explored and showing promising results. Frontline management of metastatic GEC is exploring the role of targeted therapies beyond PD-1 inhibitors, including anti-human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 agents, Claudin 18.2 inhibitors, and FGFR2 inhibitors, which have shown considerable efficacy in recent trials. Looking ahead, ongoing trials and emerging technologies such as bispecific antibodies, antibody-drug conjugates, and adoptive cell therapies like chimeric antigen receptor T cells are expected to define the future of GEC management. These advancements signify a paradigm shift toward personalized and immunotherapy-based approaches, offering the potential for improved outcomes and reduced toxicity for patients with GEC.

Abstract
Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd; DS-8201; ENHERTU®) is a human epithelial growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-directed antibody drug conjugate (ADC) with demonstrated antitumor activity against a range of tumor types. Aiming to understand the relationship between antigen expression and downstream efficacy outcomes, T-DXd was administered in tumor-bearing mice carrying NCI-N87, Capan-1, JIMT-1, and MDA-MB-468 xenografts, characterized by varying HER2 levels. Plasma pharmacokinetics (PK) of total antibody, T-DXd, and released DXd and tumor concentrations of released DXd were evaluated, in addition to monitoring γΗ2AX and pRAD50 pharmacodynamic (PD) response. A positive relationship was observed between released DXd concentrations in tumor and HER2 expression, with NCI-N87 xenografts characterized by the highest exposures compared to the remaining cell lines. γΗ2AX and pRAD50 demonstrated a sustained increase over several days occurring with a time delay relative to tumoral-released DXd concentrations. In vitro investigations of cell-based DXd disposition facilitated the characterization of DXd kinetics across tumor cells. These outputs were incorporated into a mechanistic mathematical model, utilized to describe PK/PD trends. The model captured plasma PK across dosing arms as well as tumor PK in NCI-N87, Capan-1, and MDA-MB-468 models; tumor concentrations in JIMT-1 xenografts required additional parameter adjustments reflective of complex receptor dynamics. γΗ2AX longitudinal trends were well characterized via a unified PD model implemented across xenografts demonstrating the robustness of measured PD trends. This work supports the application of a mechanistic model as a quantitative tool, reliably projecting tumor payload concentrations upon T-DXd administration, as the first step towards preclinical-to-clinical translation.

Abstract
Amanita phalloides is the primary species responsible for fatal mushroom poisoning, as its main toxin, α-amanitin, irreversibly and potently inhibits eukaryotic RNA polymerase II (RNAP II), leading to cell death. There is no specific antidote for α-amanitin, which hinders its clinical application. However, with the advancement of precision medicine in oncology, including the development of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), the potential value of various toxic small molecules has been explored. These ADCs ingeniously combine the targeting precision of antibodies with the cytotoxicity of small-molecule payloads to precisely kill tumor cells. We searched PubMed for studies in this area using these MeSH terms "Amanitins, Alpha-Amanitin, Therapeutic use, Immunotherapy, Immunoconjugates, Antibodies" and did not limit the time interval. Recent studies have conducted preclinical experiments on ADCs based on α-amanitin, showing promising therapeutic effects and good tolerance in primates. The current challenges include the not fully understood toxicological mechanism of α-amanitin and the lack of clinical studies to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of ADCs developed based on α-amanitin. In this article, we will discuss the role and therapeutic efficacy of α-amanitin as an effective payload in ADCs for the treatment of various cancers, providing background information for the research and application strategies of current and future drugs.

Abstract
Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) is an antibody-drug conjugate used for cancer treatment comprising an anti-human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 (HER2) antibody and the topoisomerase I inhibitor DXd. The present study investigated the intratumor fate of T-DXd. Fluorescence-labeled T-DXd was found to accumulate in tumors of HER2-positive tumor xenograft mice and was observed to be distributed within lysosomes of in vitro tumor cells in accordance with their HER2 expression. DXd was released by cysteine proteases, including cathepsins, in lysosomal fractions in vitro in response to the pH. Tumor slices obtained from HER2-positive tumor xenograft mice treated with T-DXd were examined by semi-quantitative and three-dimensional immunohistochemical assays using phosphor-integrated dots, which visualized DXd-related signals in the nucleus, the site of topoisomerase I inhibition. In addition, based on the data showing the antibody component of T-DXd barely distributed in the nucleus, it was suggested that the DXd-related signals detected in the nucleus were predominantly derived from free DXd. These observations help support the mode of action of T-DXd from the perspective of drug disposition.

Abstract
HER2-positive (HER2+) metastatic breast cancer (mBC) is highly aggressive and a major threat to human health. Despite the significant improvement in patients' prognosis given the drug development efforts during the past several decades, many clinical questions still remain to be addressed such as efficacy when combining different therapeutic modalities, best treatment sequences, interindividual variability as well as resistance and potential coping strategies. To better answer these questions, we developed a mechanistic quantitative systems pharmacology model of the pathophysiology of HER2+ mBC that was extensively calibrated and validated against multiscale data to quantitatively predict and characterize the signal transduction and preclinical tumor growth kinetics under different therapeutic interventions. Focusing on the second-line treatment for HER2+ mBC, e.g., antibody-drug conjugates (ADC), small molecule inhibitors/TKI and chemotherapy, the model accurately predicted the efficacy of various drug combinations and dosing regimens at the in vitro and in vivo levels. Sensitivity analyses and subsequent heterogeneous phenotype simulations revealed important insights into the design of new drug combinations to effectively overcome various resistance scenarios in HER2+ mBC treatments. In addition, the model predicted a better efficacy of the new TKI plus ADC combination which can potentially reduce drug dosage and toxicity, while it also shed light on the optimal treatment ordering of ADC versus TKI plus capecitabine regimens, and these findings were validated by new in vivo experiments. Our model is the first that mechanistically integrates multiple key drug modalities in HER2+ mBC research and it can serve as a high-throughput computational platform to guide future model-informed drug development and clinical translation.

Abstract
Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) consisting of a humanised, anti-human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) monoclonal antibody covalently linked to a topoisomerase I inhibitor cytotoxic payload (DXd). The high drug-to-antibody ratio (8:1) ensures a high DXd concentration is delivered to target tumour cells, following internalisation of T-DXd and subsequent cleavage of its tetrapeptide-based linker. DXd's membrane-permeable nature enables it to cross cell membranes and potentially exert antitumour activity on surrounding tumour cells regardless of HER2 expression. T-DXd's unique mechanism of action is reflected in its efficacy in clinical trials in patients with HER2-positive advanced breast cancer (in heavily pretreated populations and in those previously treated with a taxane and trastuzumab), as well as HER2-low metastatic breast cancer. Thus, ADCs such as T-DXd have the potential to change the treatment paradigm of targeting HER2 in metastatic breast cancer, including eventually within the adjuvant/neoadjuvant setting.

Abstract
The Trastuzumab for Gastric Cancer (ToGA) trial marked a pivotal moment in the adoption of trastuzumab for treating advanced human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive esophagogastric (EG) cancer. The KEYNOTE-811 trial brought to light the synergistic effect of immune modulation and HER2 targeting. Additionally, the emergence of trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) highlighted the potential of new pharmaceutical technologies to extend response, particularly for patients who have advanced beyond initial HER2-targeted therapies. This review aims to navigate through both the successes and challenges encountered historically, as well as promising current trials on innovative and transformative therapeutic strategies, including promising first-in-class and novel first-in-human agents.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) show significant clinical efficacy in the treatment of solid tumors, but a major limitation to their success is poor intratumoral distribution. Adding a carrier dose improves both distribution and overall drug efficacy of ADCs, but the optimal carrier dose has not been outlined for different payload classes. OBJECTIVE In this work, we study two carrier dose regimens: 1) matching payload potency to cellular delivery but potentially not reaching cells farther away from blood vessels, or 2) dosing to tumor saturation but risking a reduction in cell killing from a lower amount of payload delivered per cell. METHODS We use a validated computational model to test four different payloads conjugated to trastuzumab to determine the optimal carrier dose as a function of target expression, ADC dose, and payload potency. RESULTS We find that dosing to tumor saturation is more efficacious than matching payload potency to cellular delivery for all payloads because the increase in the number of cells targeted by the ADC outweighs the loss in cell killing on targeted cells. An important exception exists if the carrier dose reduces the payload uptake per cell to the point where all cell killing is lost. Likewise, receptor downregulation can mitigate the benefits of a carrier dose. CONCLUSIONS Because tumor saturation and in vitro potency can be measured early in ADC design, these results provide insight into maximizing ADC efficacy and demonstrate the benefits of using simulation to guide ADC design.

Abstract
Antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) have made impressive strides in the clinic in recent years with 11 Food and Drug Administration approvals, including 6 for the treatment of patients with solid tumors. Despite this success, the development of new agents remains challenging with a high failure rate in the clinic. Here, we show that current approved ADCs for the treatment of patients with solid tumors can all show substantial efficacy in some mouse models when administered at a similar weight-based [milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg)] dosing in mice that is tolerated in the clinic. Mechanistically, equivalent mg/kg dosing results in a similar drug concentration in the tumor and a similar tissue penetration into the tumor due to the unique delivery features of ADCs. Combined with computational approaches, which can account for the complex distribution within the tumor microenvironment, these scaling concepts may aid in the evaluation of new agents and help design therapeutics with maximum clinical efficacy.

Abstract
Many targeted cancer therapies rely on biomarkers assessed by scoring of immunohistochemically (IHC)-stained tissue, which is subjective, semiquantitative, and does not account for expression heterogeneity. We describe an image analysis-based method for quantitative continuous scoring (QCS) of digital whole-slide images acquired from baseline human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) IHC-stained breast cancer tissue. Candidate signatures for patient stratification using QCS of HER2 expression on subcellular compartments were identified, addressing the spatial distribution of tumor cells and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes. Using data from trastuzumab deruxtecan-treated patients with HER2-positive and HER2-negative breast cancer from a phase 1 study (NCT02564900; DS8201-A-J101; N = 151), QCS-based patient stratification showed longer progression-free survival (14.8 vs 8.6 months) with higher prevalence of patient selection (76.4 vs 56.9%) and a better cross-validated log-rank p value (0.026 vs 0.26) than manual scoring based on the American Society of Clinical Oncology / College of American Pathologists guidelines. QCS-based features enriched the HER2-negative subgroup by correctly predicting 20 of 26 responders.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the most common cancer type in women. The vast majority of breast cancer patients have hormone receptor-positive (HR+) tumors. In advanced HR+ breast cancer, the combination of endocrine therapy with cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors is considered the standard of care in the front-line setting. Nevertheless, resistance to hormonal therapy and CDK4/6 inhibitors eventually occurs, leading to progression of the disease. Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) comprise a promising therapeutic choice with significant efficacy in patients with HR+ breast cancer, which is resistant to endocrine treatment. ADCs typically consist of a cytotoxic payload attached by a linker to a monoclonal antibody that targets a specific tumor-associated antigen, offering the advantage of a more selective delivery of chemotherapy to cancer cells. In this review, we focus on the ADC mechanisms of action, their toxicity profile and therapeutic uses as well as on related biomarkers and future perspectives in advanced HR+ breast cancer.

Abstract
In recent decades, there has been a surge in the approval of monoclonal antibodies for treating a wide range of hematological and solid malignancies. These antibodies exhibit exceptional precision in targeting the surface antigens of tumors, heralding a groundbreaking approach to cancer therapy. Nevertheless, monoclonal antibodies alone do not show sufficient lethality against cancerous cells compared to chemotherapy. Consequently, a new class of anti-tumor medications, known as antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), has been developed to bridge the divide between monoclonal antibodies and cytotoxic drugs, enhancing their therapeutic potential. ADCs are chemically synthesized by binding tumor-targeting monoclonal antibodies with cytotoxic payloads through linkers that are susceptible to cleavage by intracellular proteases. They combined the accurate targeting of monoclonal antibodies with the potent efficacy of cytotoxic chemotherapy drugs while circumventing systemic toxicity and boasting superior lethality over standalone targeted drugs. The human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER) family, which encompasses HER1 (also known as EGFR), HER2, HER3, and HER4, plays a key role in regulating cellular proliferation, survival, differentiation, and migration. HER2 overexpression in various tumors is one of the most frequently targeted antigens for ADC therapy in HER2-positive cancers. HER2-directed ADCs have emerged as highly promising treatment modalities for patients with HER2-positive cancers. This review focuses on three approved anti-HER2 ADCs (T-DM1, DS-8201a, and RC48) and reviews ongoing clinical trials and failed trials based on anti-HER2 ADCs. Finally, we address the notable challenges linked to ADC development and underscore potential future avenues for tackling these hurdles.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common causes of tumor-related deaths globally. Despite recent improvements in the comprehensive therapy of malignancy, metastatic CRC continues to have a poor prognosis. Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is an established oncogenic driver, which is successfully targeted for breast and gastric cancers. Approximately 5% of CRC patients carry somatic HER2 mutations or gene amplification. In 2019, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration have approved trastuzumab and pertuzumab in combination with chemotherapy for the treatment of HER2-positive metastatic CRC. This approval marked a significant milestone in the treatment of CRC, as HER2-positive patients now have access to targeted therapies that can improve their outcomes. Yet, assessment for HER2 overexpression/ amplification in CRC has not been standardized. The resistance mechanisms to anti-HER2 therapy have been not clearly investigated in CRC. Although many unknowns remain, an improved understanding of these anti-HER2 agents will be essential for advanced CRC. In this review, we provide an overview of the role of HER2 in CRC as an oncogenic driver, a prognostic and predictive biomarker, and a clinically actionable target, as well as the current progress and challenges in the field.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The outcome of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) has improved significantly in the last few decades. Metastatic colorectal cancer is a highly heterogenous cancer. Beyond second line chemotherapy, treatment decisions are often based on molecular testing. METHOD In this narrative review, we provide a comprehensive summary of data from key clinical trials and discuss how to integrate these agents into the current treatment landscape of metastatic colorectal cancer. EXPERT OPINION In the era of precision medicine, molecular testing plays an increasingly important role in the management of mCRC. Efforts need to be made to target treatment based on molecular test results.

[PMID: 38369013 DOI: 10.1016/j.annonc.2024.02.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2023] [Revised: 01/26/2024] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/20/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Human epidermal growth factor receptor 3 (HER3) is broadly expressed in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and is the target of patritumab deruxtecan (HER3-DXd), an antibody-drug conjugate consisting of a HER3 antibody attached to a topoisomerase I inhibitor payload via a tetrapeptide-based cleavable linker. U31402-A-U102 is an ongoing phase I study of HER3-DXd in patients with advanced NSCLC. Patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated NSCLC that progressed after EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) and platinum-based chemotherapy (PBC) who received HER3-DXd 5.6 mg/kg intravenously once every 3 weeks had a confirmed objective response rate (cORR) of 39%. We present median overall survival (OS) with extended follow-up in a larger population of patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC and an exploratory analysis in those with acquired genomic alterations potentially associated with resistance to HER3-DXd. PATIENTS AND METHODS Safety was assessed in patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC previously treated with EGFR TKI who received HER3-DXd 5.6 mg/kg; efficacy was assessed in those who also had prior PBC. RESULTS In the safety population (N = 102), median treatment duration was 5.5 (range 0.7-27.5) months. Grade ≥3 adverse events occurred in 76.5% of patients; the overall safety profile was consistent with previous reports. In 78/102 patients who had prior third-generation EGFR TKI and PBC, cORR by blinded independent central review (as per RECIST v1.1) was 41.0% [95% confidence interval (CI) 30.0% to 52.7%], median progression-free survival was 6.4 (95% CI 4.4-10.8) months, and median OS was 16.2 (95% CI 11.2-21.9) months. Patients had diverse mechanisms of EGFR TKI resistance at baseline. At tumor progression, acquired mutations in ERBB3 and TOP1 that might confer resistance to HER3-DXd were identified. CONCLUSIONS In patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC after EGFR TKI and PBC, HER3-DXd treatment was associated with a clinically meaningful OS. The tumor biomarker characterization comprised the first description of potential mechanisms of resistance to HER3-DXd therapy.

Gastric Cancer 2024; 27:495-505. [PMID: 38386239 PMCID: PMC11016512 DOI: 10.1007/s10120-024-01478-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2023] [Accepted: 02/01/2024] [Indexed: 02/23/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND HER2-targeted therapies have improved the outcomes of HER2-positive gastric cancer (GC), yet resistance remains a challenge. We sought to explore the effects of reversible and irreversible HER2 tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) alone or in combination with the HER2-targeting antibody drug conjugate trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-Dxd). METHODS The effects of HER2-TKIs on HER2 and downstream signaling were evaluated via Western blotting. Proteasomal inhibitors and co-immunoprecipitation assays were performed to explore the role of proteasomal degradation in HER2 expression modulation, and immunofluorescence assays were employed to explore mechanisms of HER2 internalization. The synergistic potential of the irreversible HER2-TKI pyrotinib in combination with T-Dxd was validated using growth and viability assays in anti-HER2-positive GC cell cultures and tumor growth and immunohistochemical staining assays in a mouse xenograft model. RESULTS Our study revealed that reversible HER2-TKIs elevated HER2 protein levels, whereas irreversible HER2-TKIs decreased them. Pyrotinib triggered HER2 degradation within the proteasome by promoting ubiquitination and dissociation from HSP90. Furthermore, pyrotinib substantially induced HER2 internalization, which led to improved cellular uptake of T-Dxd. The increased T-Dxd uptake was accompanied by greater efficacy in suppressing the growth of GC cells and enhanced anti-tumor effects in an animal model. CONCLUSION In summary, our research reveals the molecular mechanisms of irreversible HER2-TKIs in regulating HER2 protein expression by promoting HER2 internalization. These findings advance our comprehension of targeted therapy for GC and provide a promising therapeutic combination strategy with enhanced efficacy against HER2-positive GC.

Impact of Genomic Alterations on Efficacy of Trastuzumab Deruxtecan Against Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor-2-Positive Advanced Gastric Cancer. JCO Precis Oncol 2024; 8:e2300681.

Abstract
PURPOSE The impact of genomic alterations on response and resistance to trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) has not been elucidated. Thus, we sought to identify factors predicting sensitivity to T-DXd in gastric or gastroesophageal junction (G/GEJ) cancer. METHODS We conducted a retrospective study using real-world clinical data and next-generation sequencing-based comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) data from patients with advanced G/GEJ cancers, collected by the nationwide database in Japan. We analyzed the associations between genomic alterations and the patients' survivals after T-DXd treatment. RESULTS In 114 patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2)-positive G/GEJ cancer treated with T-DXd, the most frequently altered genes were TP53 (82%), ERBB2 (80%), and CCNE1 (36%). Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed CCNE1 amplification to be a significant predictor of shorter progression-free survival (PFS) after T-DXd treatment among 91 patients whose CGP samples were obtained before T-DXd (median PFS, 131 days v 189 days; hazard ratio [HR], 1.90 [95% CI, 1.02 to 3.53]; P = .044). Analyses of 1,450 G/GEJ cancers revealed significant CCNE1/ERBB2 coamplification (41% relative to 11% CCNE1 amplification in ERBB2-nonamplified tumors; P < .0001). ERBB2-activating mutations were also detected in 3.7% of G/GEJ cancers and in 8.8% of HER2-positive G/GEJ cancers treated with T-DXd. Patients with ERBB2-mutated tumors showed shorter PFS than those without ERBB2 mutations after T-DXd treatment (mPFS, 105 v 180 days; P = .046). CONCLUSION CCNE1 amplification may confer primary resistance to T-DXd in HER2-positive G/GEJ cancer, suggesting that the cell cycle could be a potential therapeutic target in CCNE1/ERBB2 coamplified tumors. ERBB2-activating mutation may also attenuate T-DXd efficacy in HER2-positive G/GEJ cancer.

Trastuzumab deruxtecan versus trastuzumab emtansine in HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer patients with brain metastases from the randomized DESTINY-Breast03 trial. ESMO Open 2024; 9:102924. [PMID: 38796287 PMCID: PMC11145752 DOI: 10.1016/j.esmoop.2024.102924] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2023] [Revised: 01/31/2024] [Accepted: 02/01/2024] [Indexed: 05/28/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND DESTINY-Breast03 is a randomized, multicenter, open-label, phase III study of trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) versus trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) in patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer (mBC) previously treated with trastuzumab and a taxane. A statistically significant improvement in progression-free survival (PFS) versus T-DM1 was reported in the primary analysis. Here, we report exploratory efficacy data in patients with and without brain metastases (BMs) at baseline. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients were randomly assigned 1 : 1 to receive T-DXd 5.4 mg/kg or T-DM1 3.6 mg/kg. Patients with clinically inactive/asymptomatic BMs were eligible. Lesions were measured as per modified RECIST, version 1.1. Outcomes included PFS by blinded independent central review (BICR), objective response rate (ORR), and intracranial ORR as per BICR. RESULTS As of 21 May 2021, 43/261 patients randomized to T-DXd and 39/263 patients randomized to T-DM1 had BMs at baseline, as per investigator assessment. Among patients with baseline BMs, 20/43 in the T-DXd arm and 19/39 in the T-DM1 arm had not received prior local BM treatment. For patients with BMs, median PFS was 15.0 months [95% confidence interval (CI) 12.5-22.2 months] for T-DXd versus 3.0 months (95% CI 2.8-5.8 months) for T-DM1; hazard ratio (HR) 0.25 (95% CI 0.13-0.45). For patients without BMs, median PFS was not reached (95% CI 22.4 months-not estimable) for T-DXd versus 7.1 months (95% CI 5.6-9.7 months) for T-DM1; HR 0.30 (95% CI 0.22-0.40). Confirmed systemic ORR was 67.4% for T-DXd versus 20.5% for T-DM1 and 82.1% for T-DXd versus 36.6% for T-DM1 for patients with and without BMs, respectively. Intracranial ORR was 65.7% with T-DXd versus 34.3% with T-DM1. CONCLUSIONS Patients with HER2-positive mBC whose disease progressed after trastuzumab and a taxane achieved a substantial benefit from treatment with T-DXd compared with T-DM1, including those with baseline BMs.

Abstract
After disease progression on EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy, patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC who are then treated with platinum-based chemotherapy (PBC) obtain only limited clinical benefit with transient responses. Therapies with greater efficacy and tolerable safety profiles are needed in this setting. The receptor tyrosine kinase HER3 is widely expressed in NSCLC, and increased expression is associated with poor treatment outcomes. In the U31402-A-U102 phase I trial, HER3-DXd showed promising antitumor activity with manageable safety in heavily pre-treated patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC across a range of tumor HER3 expression levels and EGFR TKI resistance mechanisms. HERTHENA-Lung02 is the first phase III trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of HER3-DXd versus PBC in patients with progression on a third-generation EGFR TKI. Clinical Trial Registration: NCT05338970 (clinicaltrials.gov); 2021-005879-40 (EudraCT Number).

Abstract
Human epidermal receptor (HER) 2-positive advanced gastric cancer is one of the major subtypes of gastric cancer, accounting for ~20% of all cases. Although combination therapy with trastuzumab and chemotherapy provides meaningful survival benefit, clinical trials targeting HER2 have failed to demonstrate clinical benefits in first- or subsequent-line treatment. Trastuzumab deruxtecan, an antibody-drug conjugate, has shown positive results even in later-line treatment and has become new standard treatment. In first-line therapy, combination therapy with pembrolizumab and trastuzumab plus chemotherapy demonstrated a dramatic response rate. Therefore, the FDA rapidly approved it without waiting for the results of survival time. The emergence of combination therapy including immunotherapy with HER2-targeting agents and the development of HER2 targeting agents with or without immunotherapy have been advancing for treating HER2-positive gastric cancer. In this review, we will discuss the current status of treatment development and future perspectives for HER2-positive gastric cancer.

Abstract
In recent years, there has been an increase in the incidence and mortality rates of prostate cancer (PCa). However, the specific molecular mechanisms underlying its occurrence and development remain unclear, necessitating the identification of new therapeutic targets. Through bioinformatics analysis, we discovered a previously unstudied differential gene called HIST3H2A in prostate cancer. Our study revealed that HIST3H2A is highly expressed in PCa tissues, as confirmed by analysis of both the GEO and UALCAN databases. Further analysis using the KEGG database demonstrated that HIST3H2A regulates the pathway of programmed necroptosis in cells. Additionally, we observed significant up-regulation of HIST3H2A in PCa tissues and cell lines. HIST3H2A was found to regulate cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process in tumors. Notably, HIST3H2A's role in regulating programmed necroptosis in prostate cancer cells differs from its role in apoptosis. In vitro and in vivo experiments collectively support the key role of HIST3H2A in promoting the development of prostate cancer, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target for patients with PCa.

Safety Profile of the Trastuzumab-Based ADCs: Analysis of Real-World Data Registered in EudraVigilance. Biomedicines 2024; 12:953. [PMID: 38790915 PMCID: PMC11117560 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines12050953] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2024] [Revised: 04/09/2024] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Trastuzumab (T) and tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are among the first-line treatments recommended for HER2-positive breast cancer. More recently, antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) such as trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) and trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) have been authorized, and they represent the second-line therapy in this type of cancer. The present study aimed to evaluate adverse drug reactions (ADRs) associated with T-based ADCs that were spontaneously reported in EudraVigilance-the European pharmacovigilance database. Out of 42,272 ADRs reported for currently approved ADCs on the market, 24% of ADRs were related to T-DM1, while 12% of ADRs were related to T-DXd. T-DM1 had a higher probability of reporting eye, ear and labyrinth, and cardiac and hepatobiliary ADRs, while T-DXd had a higher probability of reporting respiratory, thoracic and mediastinal, blood and lymphatic system, metabolism and nutrition, and gastrointestinal ADRs. The present research found that in terms of hematological disorders, T-DM1 and T-DXd had a higher probability of reporting ADRs than TKIs. Moreover, the data showed that T-DM1 seemed to have a higher risk of cardiotoxicity than T-DXd, while T-DXd had a higher probability of reporting metabolism and nutrition disorders than T-DM1.

Abstract
The controlled liberation of molecules from a constructed framework is a subject of profound interest across various chemical fields. It allows for the masking of a molecule's properties and precise deployment upon a single controllable release event. While numerous methodologies have been developed for amines, alcohols, and thiols, approaches for utilising amides as payload-release handles are still in their early stages of development, despite the prevalence of amides in therapeutic compounds and materials. Herein, is presented a comprehensive strategy for the controlled and selective release of a diverse range of amides with stable linkers. The versatility of this approach is demonstrated by its successful application in the targeted release of various amide-containing drugs in their natural form via the use of commonly used trigger motifs, such as dipeptides or glycosides. As a proof of concept, the FDA-approved antibiotic linezolid has been successfully converted into a prodrug form and released selectively only in the presence of the trigger event. Significantly, in its prodrug state, no activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis was exhibited. Linezolid's full potential was achieved only upon controlled release, where an equipotent efficacy to the free linezolid control was demonstrated, thus emphasising the immense potential of this method.

Amine-Carbamate Self-Immolative Spacers Counterintuitively Release 3° Alcohol at Much Faster Rates than 1° Alcohol Payloads. Chembiochem 2024; 25:e202400174.

Abstract
Self-immolative (SI) spacers are degradable chemical connectors widely used in prodrugs and drug conjugates to release pharmaceutical ingredients in response to specific stimuli. Amine-carbamate SI spacers are particularly versatile, as they have been used to release different hydroxy cargos, ranging from 2° and 3° alcohols to phenols and oximes. In this work, we describe the ability of three amine-carbamate SI spacers to release three structurally similar imidazoquinoline payloads, bearing either a 1°, a 2° or a 3° alcohol as the leaving group. While the spacers showed comparable efficacy at releasing the 2° and 3° alcohols, the liberation of the 1° alcohol was much slower, unveiling a counterintuitive trend in nucleophilic acyl substitutions. The release of the 1° alcohol payload was only possible using a SI spacer bearing a pyrrolidine ring and a tertiary amine handle, which opens the way to future applications in drug delivery systems.

Abstract
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) represents the breast cancer subtype with least favorable outcome because of the lack of effective treatment options and its molecular features. Recently, ADCs have dramatically changed the breast cancer treatment landscape; the anti-TROP2 ADC Sacituzumab Govitecan has been approved for treatment of previously treated, metastatic TNBC patients. The novel ADC Datopotecan-deruxtecan (Dato-DXd) has recently shown encouraging results for TNBC. In the current paper, we summarize and discuss available data regarding this TROP-2 directed agent mechanism of action and pharmacologic activity, we describe first results on efficacy and safety of the drug and report characteristics, inclusion criteria and endpoints of the main ongoing clinical trials.

Abstract
Existing antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) linkers, whether cleavable or non-cleavable, are designed to release highly toxic payloads or payload derivatives upon internalisation of the ADCs into cells. However, clinical studies have shown that only <1 % of the dosed ADCs accumulate in tumour cells. The remaining >99 % of ADCs are nonspecifically distributed in healthy tissue cells, thus inevitably leading to off-target toxicity. Herein, we describe an intelligent tumour-specific linker strategy to address these limitations. A tumour-specific linker is constructed by introducing a hypoxia-activated azobenzene group as a toxicity controller. We show that this azobenzene-based linker is non-cleavable in healthy tissues (O2 >10 %), and the corresponding payload derivative, cysteine-appended azobenzene-linker-monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE), can serve as a safe prodrug to mask the toxicity of MMAE (switched off). Upon exposure to the hypoxic tumour microenvironment (O2<1 %), this linker is cleaved to release MMAE and fully restores the high cytotoxicity of the ADC (switched on). Notably, the azobenzene linker-containing ADC exhibits satisfactory antitumour efficacy in vivo and a larger therapeutic window compared with ADCs containing traditional cleavable or non-cleavable linkers. Thus, our azobenzene-based linker sheds new light on the development of next-generation ADC linkers.

Abstract
Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have experienced a surge in clinical approvals in the past five years. Despite this success, a major limitation to ADC efficacy in solid tumors is poor tumor penetration, which leaves many cancer cells untargeted. Increasing antibody doses or co-administering ADC with an unconjugated antibody can improve tumor penetration and increase efficacy when target receptor expression is high. However, it can also reduce efficacy in low-expression tumors where ADC delivery is limited by cellular uptake. This creates an intrinsic problem because many patients express different levels of target between tumors and even within the same tumor. Here, we generated High-Avidity, Low-Affinity (HALA) antibodies that can automatically tune the cellular ADC delivery to match the local expression level. Using HER2 ADCs as a model, HALA antibodies were identified with the desired HER2 expression-dependent competitive binding with ADCs in vitro. Multi-scale distribution of trastuzumab emtansine and trastuzumab deruxtecan co-administered with the HALA antibody were analyzed in vivo, revealing that the HALA antibody increased ADC tumor penetration in high-expression systems with minimal reduction in ADC uptake in low-expression tumors. This translated to greater ADC efficacy in immunodeficient mouse models across a range of HER2 expression levels. Furthermore, Fc-enhanced HALA antibodies showed improved Fc-effector function at both high and low expression levels and elicited a strong response in an immunocompetent mouse model. These results demonstrate that HALA antibodies can expand treatment ranges beyond high expression targets and leverage strong immune responses.

Abstract
Cancer is no longer recognized as a single disease but a collection of diseases each with its defining characteristics and behavior. Even within the same cancer type, there can be substantial heterogeneity at the molecular level. Cancer cells often accumulate various genetic mutations and epigenetic alterations over time, leading to a coexistence of distinct subpopulations of cells within the tumor. This tumor heterogeneity arises not only due to clonal outgrowth of cells with genetic mutations, but also due to interactions of tumor cells with the tumor microenvironment (TME). The latter is a dynamic ecosystem that includes cancer cells, immune cells, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, stromal cells, blood vessels, and extracellular matrix components, tumor-associated macrophages and secreted molecules. The complex interplay between tumor heterogeneity and the TME makes it difficult to develop one-size-fits-all treatments and is often the cause of therapeutic failure and resistance in solid cancers. Technological advances in the post-genomic era have given us cues regarding spatial and temporal tumor heterogeneity. Armed with this knowledge, oncologists are trying to target the unique genomic, epigenetic, and molecular landscape in the tumor cell that causes its oncogenic transformation in a particular patient. This has ushered in the era of personalized precision medicine (PPM). Immunotherapy, on the other hand, involves leveraging the body's immune system to recognize and attack cancer cells and spare healthy cells from the damage induced by radiation and chemotherapy. Combining PPM and immunotherapy represents a paradigm shift in cancer treatment and has emerged as a promising treatment modality for several solid cancers. In this chapter, we summarise major types of cancer immunotherapy and discuss how they are being used for precision medicine in different solid tumors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND HER2-expressing salivary gland carcinoma (SGC) is associated with poor prognosis. Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd, DS-8201) has shown evidence of antitumor activity for several HER2-expressing solid tumors in multiple studies. This study aimed to present the efficacy and safety of T-DXd in patients with HER2-expressing SGC from a pooled analysis. METHODS Patients with HER2-expressing SGC were pooled from two phase I, open-label studies of T-DXd: a two-phase, multiple-dose, first-in-human study (NCT02564900) and a single-sequence crossover drug-drug interaction study (NCT03383692). Endpoints included efficacy (objective response rate [ORR], duration of response [DoR] and progression-free survival [PFS]) and safety. RESULTS This pooled analysis included 17 patients with SGC (median age: 57 years; male: 88.2%); median (range) follow-up duration was 12.0 (2.3-34.8) months. Among these patients, 14 had received prior HER2-targeted agents and 13 had undergone prior radiotherapy. The investigator-assessed confirmed ORR was 58.8% (95% confidence interval [CI], 32.9-81.6). The median (95% CI) DoR and PFS were 17.6 months (4.0 to not evaluable [NE]) and 20.5 months (11.1-NE), respectively. All 17 patients reported treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs); 76.5% reported TEAEs of grade ≥3. The most common TEAEs were decreased appetite (94.1%), nausea (88.2%) and neutrophil count decreased (76.5%). Of the 17 patients, five (29.4%) reported adjudicated drug-related interstitial lung disease (grade 1, n = 3; grade 2, n =1; grade 3, n = 1). CONCLUSION The results of this pooled analysis provide evidence that clinical benefit is achievable with T-DXd in patients with HER2-expressing SGC.

Comparison of trastuzumab emtansine, trastuzumab deruxtecan, and disitamab vedotin in a multiresistant HER2-positive breast cancer lung metastasis model. Clin Exp Metastasis 2024; 41:91-102.

Abstract
Human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer with lung metastases resistant to targeted agents is a common therapeutic challenge. Absence of preclinical lung metastasis models that are resistant to multiple anti-HER2 targeted drugs hampers the development of novel therapies. We established a novel HER2-positive breast cancer cell line (L-JIMT-1) with a high propensity to form lung metastases from the parenteral JIMT-1 cell line by injecting JIMT-1 cells into immunodeficient SCID mice. Lung metastases developed in all mice injected with L-JIMT-1 cells, and more rapidly and in greater numbers compared with the parental JIMT-1 cells. L-JIMT-1 cells expressed more epidermal growth factor receptor and HER2 than JIMT-1 cells. L-JIMT-1 cells were resistant to all five tyrosine kinase inhibitors tested in vitro (afatinib, erlotinib, lapatinib, sapitinib, and tucatinib). When we compared JIMT-1 and L-JIMT-1 sensitivity to three HER2-targeting antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1), trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd), and disitamab vedotin (DV) in vitro, JIMT-1 cells were resistant T-DXd, partially sensitive to T-DM1, and sensitive to DV, while L-JIMT-1 cells were resistant to both T-DM1 and T-DXd, but moderately sensitive to DV. In a mouse model, all three ADCs inhibited the growth of L-JIMT-1 lung metastases compared to a vehicle, but DV and T-DXd more strongly than T-DM1, and DV treatment led to the smallest tumor burden. The L-JIMT breast cancer lung metastasis model developed may be useful in the evaluation of anti-cancer agents for multiresistant HER2-positive advanced breast cancer.

Clinical management, monitoring, and prophylaxis of adverse events of special interest associated with datopotamab deruxtecan. Cancer Treat Rev 2024; 125:102720. [PMID: 38502995 DOI: 10.1016/j.ctrv.2024.102720] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2024] [Revised: 03/07/2024] [Accepted: 03/10/2024] [Indexed: 03/21/2024]
Abstract
Antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) are an emerging class of treatments designed to improve efficacy and decrease toxicity compared with other systemic therapies through the selective delivery of cytotoxic agents to tumor cells. Datopotamab deruxtecan (Dato-DXd) is a novel ADC comprising a topoisomerase I inhibitor payload and a monoclonal antibody directed to trophoblast cell-surface antigen 2 (TROP2), a protein that is broadly expressed in several types of solid tumors. Dato-DXd is being investigated across multiple solid tumor indications. In the ongoing, first-in-human TROPION-PanTumor01 phase I study (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03401385), encouraging and durable antitumor activity and a manageable safety profile was demonstrated in patients with advanced/metastatic hormone receptor-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor2-negative breast cancer (HR+/HER2- BC), triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Improved understanding of the adverse events (AEs) that are associated with Dato-DXd and their optimal management is essential to ensure safe and successful administration. Interstitial lung disease/pneumonitis, infusion-related reactions, oral mucositis/stomatitis, and ocular surface events have been identified as AEs of special interest (AESIs) for which appropriate prevention, monitoring, and management is essential. This article summarizes the incidence of AESIs among patients with HR+/HER2- BC, TNBC, and NSCLC reported in TROPION-PanTumor01. We report our recommendations for AESI prophylaxis, early detection, and management, using experience gained from treating AESIs that occur with Dato-DXd in clinical trials.

Incidence of antibody-drug conjugate-related fatigue in patients with breast cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Crit Rev Oncol Hematol 2024; 196:104292. [PMID: 38403093 DOI: 10.1016/j.critrevonc.2024.104292] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2023] [Revised: 01/27/2024] [Accepted: 02/07/2024] [Indexed: 02/27/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Numerous studies have reported the efficacy of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) for treating breast cancer. However, during cytotoxic drug treatment, long-term disabling fatigue is common. Moreover, studies in the relevant literature have indicated that fatigue can significantly increase the incidence of depression and sleep disorders. Therefore, this meta-analysis aims to evaluate the incidence of fatigue in breast cancer survivors treated with ADCs. METHODS PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases were systematically searched for articles and conference abstracts published before March 16, 2023. Further, two authors independently extracted data from the included studies. The primary outcome of this study was the incidence of all-grade fatigue caused by the use of ADCs in patients with breast cancer. Finally, a random-effects model was used to calculate the incidence and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of the outcome. RESULTS Overall, 7963 patients from 31 studies were included in this meta-analysis to assess the incidence of fatigue caused by the use of approved and marketed ADCs in patients with breast cancer. Notably, the incidence of all-grade fatigue during ADC monotherapy was 39.84% (95% CI, 35.09%-44.69%). In subgroup analyses, among ADCs, the incidence of trastuzumab deruxtecan-induced fatigue was the highest, with an all-grade fatigue incidence of 47.05% (95% CI, 42.38%-51.75%). Meanwhile, the incidence of trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1)-induced all-grade fatigue was 35.17% (95% CI, 28.87%-41.74%), which was the lowest among ADCs. Further, the incidence of all-grade fatigue due to sacituzumab govitecan was 42.82% (95% CI, 34.54%-51.32%), which was higher than that due to T-DM1. Moreover, the incidence of fatigue was higher with T-DM1 combination therapy than with monotherapy. CONCLUSIONS Clinicians have highlighted the high incidence of ADC-related fatigue and its negative impact on patients' physical and mental health, making fatigue an important research variable. The results of this study will further contribute to a comprehensive understanding of ADCs, which have some clinical importance and are of great benefit to patients with breast cancer.

Rational Identification of Novel Antibody-Drug Conjugate with High Bystander Killing Effect against Heterogeneous Tumors. ADVANCED SCIENCE (WEINHEIM, BADEN-WURTTEMBERG, GERMANY) 2024; 11:e2306309. [PMID: 38269648 PMCID: PMC10987111 DOI: 10.1002/advs.202306309] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2023] [Revised: 12/15/2023] [Indexed: 01/26/2024]
Abstract
Bystander-killing payloads can significantly overcome the tumor heterogeneity issue and enhance the clinical potential of antibody-drug conjugates (ADC), but the rational design and identification of effective bystander warheads constrain the broader implementation of this strategy. Here, graph attention networks (GAT) are constructed for a rational bystander killing scoring model and ADC construction workflow for the first time. To generate efficient bystander-killing payloads, this model is utilized for score-directed exatecan derivatives design. Among them, Ed9, the most potent payload with satisfactory permeability and bioactivity, is further used to construct ADC. Through linker optimization and conjugation, novel ADCs are constructed that perform excellent anti-tumor efficacy and bystander-killing effect in vivo and in vitro. The optimal conjugate T-VEd9 exhibited therapeutic efficacy superior to DS-8201 against heterogeneous tumors. These results demonstrate that the effective scoring approach can pave the way for the discovery of novel ADC with promising bystander payloads to combat tumor heterogeneity.

Abstract
The use of genetic testing to personalize therapeutic strategies in cancer is rapidly evolving and thus changing the landscape of treatment of oncologic patients. The UGT1A1 gene is an important component for the metabolism and glucoronidation of certain drugs, including irinotecan and sacituzumab govitecan (SG); therefore, various UGT1A1 polymorphisms leading to decreased function of the UGT1A1 enzyme may lead to increased risk of treatment-related side effects. Testing for UGT1A1 polymorphism is not routinely adopted in clinical practice; that is due to the lack of concise studies and recommendations concerning the clinical relevance of this test and its impact on the quality of life of cancer patients. The knowledge regarding UGT1A1 polymorphism and its clinical relevance will be reviewed in this article, as well as the published literature on the association between UGT1A1 polymorphism and the toxicity risk of irinotecan as well as sacituzumab govitecan. The current recommendations and guidelines on UGT1A1 testing will be discussed in detail in the hopes of providing guidance to oncologists in their clinical practice.

Abstract
Approximately 60% of traditionally defined human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancers express low levels of HER2 [HER2-low; defined as immunohistochemistry (IHC) 1+ or IHC 2+/in situ hybridization (ISH)-]. HER2-low breast cancers encompass a large percentage of both hormone receptor-positive (up to 85%) and triple-negative (up to 63%) breast cancers. The DESTINY-Breast04 trial established that HER2-low tumors are targetable, leading to the approval of trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) as the first HER2-directed therapy for the treatment of HER2-low breast cancer in the United States and Europe. This change in the clinical landscape results in a number of questions and challenges-including those related to HER2 assessment and patient identification-and highlights the need for careful assessment of HER2 expression to identify patients eligible for T-DXd. This review provides context for understanding how to identify patients with HER2-low breast cancer with respect to sample types, scoring and reporting HER2 status, and testing methods and assays. It also discusses management of important T-DXd-related adverse events. Available evidence supports the efficacy of T-DXd in patients with any history of IHC 1+ or IHC 2+/ISH- scores; however, future research may further refine the population who could benefit from T-DXd or other HER2-directed therapies and identify novel methods for patient identification. Because HER2 expression can change with disease progression or treatment, and variability exists in scoring and interpretation of HER2 status, careful re-evaluation in certain scenarios may help to identify more patients who may benefit from T-DXd.

Abstract
Antibody and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell-mediated targeted therapies have improved survival in patients with solid and haematologic malignancies1-9. Adults with T cell leukaemias and lymphomas, collectively called T cell cancers, have short survival10,11 and lack such targeted therapies. Thus, T cell cancers particularly warrant the development of CAR T cells and antibodies to improve patient outcomes. Preclinical studies showed that targeting T cell receptor β-chain constant region 1 (TRBC1) can kill cancerous T cells while preserving sufficient healthy T cells to maintain immunity12, making TRBC1 an attractive target to treat T cell cancers. However, the first-in-human clinical trial of anti-TRBC1 CAR T cells reported a low response rate and unexplained loss of anti-TRBC1 CAR T cells13,14. Here we demonstrate that CAR T cells are lost due to killing by the patient's normal T cells, reducing their efficacy. To circumvent this issue, we developed an antibody-drug conjugate that could kill TRBC1+ cancer cells in vitro and cure human T cell cancers in mouse models. The anti-TRBC1 antibody-drug conjugate may provide an optimal format for TRBC1 targeting and produce superior responses in patients with T cell cancers.

Efficacy and safety of trastuzumab deruxtecan in treating human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-low/positive advanced breast cancer:A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Crit Rev Oncol Hematol 2024; 196:104305. [PMID: 38442809 DOI: 10.1016/j.critrevonc.2024.104305] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2023] [Accepted: 02/20/2024] [Indexed: 03/07/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND A novel antibody-drug conjugate, trastuzumab deruxtecan is a combination of a human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-targeting antibody and DNA topoisomerase I inhibitor used to treat HER2-low/positive advanced breast cancer. To determine its safety and efficacy in treating HER2-low/positive advanced breast cancer, we performed a meta-analysis of several randomized clinical trials (RCTs) including DESTINY-Breast02 (NCT03523585), DESTINY-Breast03 (NCT03529110), and DESTINY-Breast04 (NCT03734029). METHODS We searched PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library for RCTs on the efficacy and safety of trastuzumab deruxtecan that were published before May 2023. The efficacy endpoints included median progressive-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), duration of response (DOR), overall response rate (ORR), and clinical benefit rate (CBR). The safety endpoints included treatment-related adverse events. Statistical analyses were performed using RevMan 5.4 software. To ensure transparency, this study was registered on the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews website (CRD42023414170). RESULTS Three RCTs involving 1689 patients were included. Compared with physician-recommended and conventional treatments, trastuzumab deruxtecan exhibited statistically significant improvements in PFS, ORR, and CBR. The median OS and DOR failed to be combined; however, the analyzed studies showed that they were longer. The incidence of adverse events was generally higher with trastuzumab deruxtecan than with physician-recommended or conventional treatments. CONCLUSION The results of this study suggest that trastuzumab deruxtecan is more effective in treating HER2-low/positive advanced breast cancer than physician-recommended or conventional treatments. However, trastuzumab deruxtecan-related adverse drug reactions should be closely monitored because of its higher incidence of adverse events.

Abstract
Gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma (GEA) is one of the principal causes of death related to cancer globally. Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is a tyrosine kinase receptor which is found to be overexpressed or amplified in approximately 20% of GEA cases. In GEA, the identification of HER2-positive status is crucial to activate a specific anti-HER2 targeted therapy. The landmark ToGA trial demonstrated the superiority of adding trastuzumab to platinum-based chemotherapy, becoming the first-line standard of treatment. However, unlike breast cancer, the efficacy of other anti-HER2 drugs, such as lapatinib, pertuzumab, and T-DM1, has failed to improve outcomes in advanced and locally advanced resectable GEA. Recently, the combination of trastuzumab with pembrolizumab, along with chemotherapy, and the development of trastuzumab deruxtecan, with its specific bystander activity, demonstrated improved outcomes, renewing attention in the treatment of this disease. This review will summarise historical and emerging therapies for the treatment of HER2-positive GEA, with a section dedicated to the HER2 molecular pathway and the use of novel blood biomarkers, such as circulating tumour DNA and circulating tumour cells, which may be helpful in the future to guide treatment decisions.

Abstract
Despite a decreasing incidence in Western countries, gastric cancer is among the most common cancer subtypes globally and is associated with one of the highest tumor-related mortality rates. Biomarkers play an increasing role in the treatment against gastric cancer. HER2 was one of the first biomarkers that found its way into clinical practice. Since the ToGA trial, trastuzumab has been part of first-line palliative chemotherapy in metastatic or unresectable gastric cancer. HER2-targeting agents, such as the tyrosine kinase inhibitor lapatinib, the antibody drug conjugate (ADC) trastuzumab-emtansine or dual HER2 inhibition (pertuzumab and trastuzumab), have been investigated in the second-line setting but led to negative study results. More recently, the ADC trastuzumab-deruxtecan was authorized after the failure of trastuzumab-based treatment. However, further improvements in HER2-directed therapy are required as resistance mechanisms and HER2 heterogeneity limit the existing treatment options. This review aims to give an overview of the current standard-of-care HER2-directed therapy in gastric cancer, as well as its challenges and future developments.

Abstract
While strategies such as chemotherapy and immunotherapy have become the first-line standard therapies for patients with advanced or metastatic cancer, acquired resistance is still inevitable in most cases. The introduction of antibody‒drug conjugates (ADCs) provides a novel alternative. ADCs are a new class of anticancer drugs comprising the coupling of antitumor mAbs with cytotoxic drugs. Compared with chemotherapeutic drugs, ADCs have the advantages of good tolerance, accurate target recognition, and small effects on noncancerous cells. ADCs occupy an increasingly important position in the therapeutic field. Currently, there are 13 Food and Drug Administration (FDA)‒approved ADCs and more than 100 ADC drugs at different stages of clinical trials. This review briefly describes the efficacy and safety of FDA-approved ADCs, and discusses the related problems and challenges to provide a reference for clinical work.

Abstract
The targeted protein degradation (TPD) technology employing proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) has been widely applied in drug chemistry and chemical biology for the treatment of cancer and other diseases. PROTACs have demonstrated significant advantages in targeting undruggable targets and overcoming drug resistance. However, despite the efficient degradation of targeted proteins achieved by PROTACs, they still face challenges related to selectivity between normal and cancer cells, as well as issues with poor membrane permeability due to their substantial molecular weight. Additionally, the noteworthy toxicity resulting from off-target effects also needs to be addressed. To solve these issues, Degrader-Antibody Conjugates (DACs) have been developed, leveraging the targeting and internalization capabilities of antibodies. In this review, we elucidates the characteristics and distinctions between DACs, and traditional Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). Meanwhile, we emphasizes the significance of DACs in facilitating the delivery of PROTACs and delves into the impact of various components on DAC activity. These components include antibody targets, drug-antibody ratio (DAR), linker types, PROTACs targets, PROTACs connections, and E3 ligase ligands. The review also explores the suitability of different targets (antibody targets or PROTACs targets) for DACs, providing insights to guide the design of PROTACs better suited for antibody conjugation.

Abstract
Camptothecin (CPT) is a potent anti-cancer agent targeting topoisomerase I (TOP1). However, CPT has poor pharmacokinetic properties, causes toxicities, and leads to drug resistance, which limit its clinical use. In this paper, to review the current state of CPT research. We first briefly explain CPT's TOP1 inhibition mechanism and the key hurdles in CPT drug development. Then we examine strategies to overcome CPT's limitations through structural modifications and advanced delivery systems. Though modifications alone seem insufficient to fully enhance CPT's therapeutic potential, structure-activity relationship analysis provides insights to guide optimization of CPT analogs. In comparison, advanced delivery systems integrating controlled release, imaging capabilities, and combination therapies via stimulus-responsive linkers and targeting moieties show great promise for improving CPT's pharmacological profile. Looking forward, multifaceted approaches combining selective CPT derivatives with advanced delivery systems, informed by emerging biological insights, hold promise for fully unleashing CPT's anti-cancer potential.
