Peng Y, Zhou Y, Zhou X, Jia X, Zhong Y. A disproportionality analysis of CDK4/6 inhibitors in the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). Expert Opin Drug Saf 2024:1-9. [PMID: 39083396 DOI: 10.1080/14740338.2024.2387323] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2024] [Revised: 06/19/2024] [Accepted: 06/27/2024] [Indexed: 08/02/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) was used to mine and evaluate adverse events (AEs) associated with cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitors, thereby providing a reference for clinical rational drug use. METHODS AE data related to CDK4/6 inhibitors from the first quarter of 2015 to the first quarter of 2023 were acquired from FAERS, while the signal mining was processed using the reporting odds ratio (ROR) method and Bayesian confidence propagation neural network (BCPNN) method. RESULTS The number of AE reports for CDK4/6 inhibitors was, respectively, 132,494 for palbociclib, 56,151 for ribociclib, and 7,014 for abemaciclib. The corresponding numbers of AE signals were 319, 517, and 59, with the number of involved System Organ Class (SOC) being 23, 23, and 15, mainly involving blood and lymphatic system disorders, respiratory, thoracic and mediastinal disorders, hepatobiliary disorders, skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders, etc. CONCLUSION CDK4/6 inhibitors could lead to pulmonary toxicity, myelosuppression, skin reactions, etc. Special attention should be paid to abemaciclib for interstitial lung disease (ILD), erythema multiforme, and thrombosis risk; ribociclib for cardiac toxicity, hepatotoxicity, and musculoskeletal toxicity; palbociclib for neurocognitive impairment and osteonecrosis of the jaw.

Abstract
Abemaciclib, a cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor used for hormone-receptor-positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2)-negative breast cancer, can lead to elevated serum creatinine without implications on the true renal function. Although clinical trials have shown no increase in other kidney function biomarkers, this may still represent a challenge in cancer patients. We report a case of a 74-year-old female who presented with creatinine and cystatin-C elevation during treatment with abemaciclib without an equivalent decrease in measured glomerular filtration rate (GFR) with renal scintigraphy. The confirmation of adequate kidney function allowed for the maintenance of treatments that would otherwise be limited by renal impairment. Healthcare providers should be aware of abemaciclib's effect on serum creatinine but should not eliminate the possibility of actual kidney injury. Alternative biomarkers for GFR assessment are recommended, although the usefulness of cystatin-C in patients receiving abemaciclib should be investigated in greater depth.

Abstract
Patients with metastatic acral lentiginous melanoma (ALM) suffer worse outcomes relative to patients with other forms of cutaneous melanoma (CM), and do not benefit as well to approved melanoma therapies. Identification of cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) pathway gene alterations in >60% of ALMs has led to clinical trials of the CDK4/6 inhibitor (CDK4i/6i) palbociclib for ALM; however, median progression free survival with CDK4i/6i treatment was only 2.2 months, suggesting existence of resistance mechanisms. Therapy resistance in ALM remains poorly understood; here we report hyperactivation of MAPK signaling and elevated cyclin D1 expression serve as a mechanism of intrinsic early/adaptive CDK4i/6i resistance. ALM cells that have acquired CDK4i/6i resistance following chronic treatment exposure also exhibit hyperactivation of the MAPK pathway. MEK and/or ERK inhibition increases CDK4i/6i efficacy against therapy naïve and CDK4i/6i-resistant AM cells in xenograft and patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models and promotes a defective DNA repair, cell cycle arrested and apoptotic program. Notably, gene alterations poorly correlate with protein expression of cell cycle proteins in ALM or efficacy of CDK4i/6i, urging additional strategies when stratifying patients for CDK4i/6i trial inclusion. Concurrent targeting of the MAPK pathway and CDK4/6 represents a new approach for patients with metastatic ALM to improve outcomes.

Semin Oncol 2023; 50:131-139. [PMID: 38245458 DOI: 10.1053/j.seminoncol.2024.01.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2023] [Revised: 01/08/2024] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 01/22/2024]
Abstract
The development of oral cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors, including palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib, has revolutionized the treatment landscape for patients with hormone-receptor-positive (HR+) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative metastatic breast cancer (BC). When combined with an aromatase inhibitor or fulvestrant, these agents have been approved as first-line therapy in the metastatic setting. Abemaciclib has also gained FDA approval for patients with HR-positive, HER2-negative, node-positive, early BC at high risk of recurrence. Moreover, ribociclib has recently improved disease-free survival in patients with stage II or III HR+/HER2-negative early BC. CDK4/6 inhibitors have favorable safety profiles. However, the available agents have different toxicity profiles that must be clearly discussed with the patients for optimal clinical decisions. This manuscript aims to review CDK4/6 inhibitor-related treatment-associated adverse events, identify risk factors for intolerable adverse events, and assess their safety in special patient populations such as the elderly and those with renal insufficiency. Enhanced knowledge and understanding of CDK4/6 inhibitor-related toxicities can improve treatment strategies and ultimately enhance patient care.

Abstract
Cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors are a recent targeted therapy approved for patients with hormone receptor-positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancer. Abemaciclib, palbociclib and ribociclib demonstrated great efficacy and safety during clinical studies. However, differences in their adverse-event profiles have been observed. This work aims to describe the suspected adverse drug reactions (ADRs), such as leukopenia and thrombocytopenia, reported for each CDK4/6 inhibitor in the EudraVigilance (EV) database. Data on individual case safety reports (ICSRs) were obtained by accessing the European spontaneous reporting system via the EV website. Information on concomitant drug therapy, including fulvestrant, letrozole, anastrozole and exemestane, was also analyzed. A total of 1611 ICSRs were collected from the EV database. Most reports of palbociclib and ribociclib were classified as serious cases for both suspected leukopenia and thrombocytopenia ADRs. However, most patients had their leukopenia and thrombocytopenia recovered/resolved. On the contrary, reports of abemaciclib were mostly characterized as non-serious cases. Abemaciclib and palbociclib were often combined with fulvestrant, while ribociclib was generally associated with letrozole. Pharmacovigilance studies are crucial for the early identification of potential ADRs and to better differentiate the toxicity profile of the different CDK4/6 inhibitors, particularly in a real-world setting.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study described, in routine clinical practice in Japan, the patient characteristics, treatment patterns, and outcomes of female patients with HR + /HER2- metastatic breast cancer (MBC) who started abemaciclib treatment. METHODS Clinical charts were reviewed for patients starting abemaciclib in 12/2018-08/2021 with a minimum of 3 months follow-up data post-abemaciclib initiation regardless of abemaciclib discontinuation. Patient characteristics, treatment patterns, and tumor response were descriptively summarized. Kaplan-Meier curves estimated progression-free survival (PFS). RESULTS 200 patients from 14 institutions were included. At abemaciclib initiation, median age was 59 years, and the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status score was 0/1/2 for 102/68/5 patients (58.3/38.9/2.9%), respectively. Most had an abemaciclib starting dose of 150 mg (92.5%). The percentage of patients receiving abemaciclib as 1st, 2nd, or 3rd line treatment was 31.5%, 25.8%, and 25.2%, respectively. The most frequent endocrine therapy drugs used with abemaciclib were fulvestrant (59%) and aromatase inhibitors (40%). Evaluation of tumor response was available for 171 patients, 30.4% of whom had complete/partial response. Median PFS was 13.0 months (95% CI 10.1-15.8 months). CONCLUSIONS In a routine clinical practice setting in Japan, patients with HR + , HER2- MBC appear to benefit from abemaciclib treatment in terms of treatment response and median PFS, with the results broadly reflecting the evidence demonstrated in clinical trials.

Abstract
PURPOSE Adverse events after the use of the CDK4/6 inhibitor abemaciclib are dose-dependent. However, its pharmacokinetics varies among individuals. Abemaciclib is reportedly transported by P-glycoprotein and breast cancer resistance protein. Therefore, we evaluated whether ABCB1 and ABCG2 polymorphisms are pharmacokinetic predictive factors of abemaciclib. METHODS A total of 45 patients with breast cancer taking abemaciclib (150 mg twice per day) for 2 weeks were evaluated to determine the associations among abemaciclib concentration; adverse events; and ABCB1 1236 T > C, 2677G > T/A, 3435C > T, and ABCG2 421C > A gene polymorphisms. RESULTS The trough concentration of abemaciclib was significantly higher in the group with grade 2 or greater neutropenia and thrombocytopenia than in those with grades 0 or 1. For ABCB1 2677G > T/A polymorphisms, the concentration of abemaciclib tended to be higher in the homozygous group (TT + AT) than in the wild-type + heterozygous group (GG + GA + GT) (median [range], 222.8 [80.5-295.8] ng/mL vs. 113.5 [23.6-355.2] ng/mL, P = 0.09), Moreover, the ABCB1 2677G > T/A homozygous group had a higher tendency of abemaciclib withdrawal or dose reduction within 4 weeks than the wild-type + heterozygous group (odds ratio, 4.22; 95% confidence interval, 0.86-20.7; P = 0.08). No significant association was observed among abemaciclib concentration; adverse reactions; and ABCB1 1236 T > C, 3435C > T, and ABCG2 421C > A polymorphisms. CONCLUSION ABCB1 2677G > T/A polymorphism might be a predictor of the pharmacokinetics and tolerability of abemaciclib.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To review the new indication of cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK4/6) inhibitor abemaciclib for the adjuvant treatment of hormone receptor positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-), axillary lymph node (LN) positive early breast cancer (EBC) at high risk of recurrence and a Ki-67 ≥20%. DATA SOURCES A literature search was performed through PubMed, ClinicalTrials.gov, and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) website (February 1, 2018, to December 23, 2021) to identify relevant information. STUDY SELECTION AND DATA EXTRACTION Human and animal studies related to pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, efficacy, and safety of abemaciclib were identified. DATA SYNTHESIS Addition of abemaciclib to standard of care endocrine therapy (ET) for patients with high-risk clinicopathologic features and Ki-67 ≥20% demonstrated 30% reduction in the risk of developing invasive disease and distant recurrence. At 15.5 months, abemaciclib + ET demonstrated a significant improvement in invasive disease-free survival (IDFS) vs ET alone (hazard ratio [HR], 0.75; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.60-0.93, P = 0.01). At 27 months, IDFS benefit was maintained (HR, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.59-0.82, P < 0.0001). Diarrhea occurred in more than 80% of patients in the abemaciclib arm. RELEVANCE TO PATIENT CARE AND CLINICAL PRACTICE This review describes the clinical applicability of adjuvant abemaciclib for patients with HR+, HER2- EBC at high risk for recurrence. CONCLUSION Adjuvant abemaciclib significantly reduces the risk for early development of invasive disease and distant recurrence in patients with HR+, HER2- node positive EBC. Longer follow-up is needed to determine the impact of adjuvant abemaciclib on late disease recurrence and survival outcomes.

Abstract
Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs/piRs) are small non-coding RNAs that play important roles in stablizing genome through silencing transposable genetic elements. The piR-651 was reported to be dysregulated in several human solid cancer tissues, such as gastric and lung cancers. However, the role of piRNA-651 in carcinogenesis of breast cancer has not been defined. We found that piR-651 was highly expressed in breast cancer tissues and cell lines. Overexpression of piR-651 facilitated cell proliferation and invasion, restrained cell apoptosis and the percentage of arrested cells in G0/G1 phase, accompanied by upregulated expression of oncogenes (MDM2, CDK4 and Cyclin D1), whereas piR-651 downregulation showed the opposite effects. Additionally, piR-651 could promote phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) methylation and its downregulated expression by recruiting DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) to the PTEN promoter region through complex formation with PIWIL2. PTEN overexpression reversed the effects of upregulated piR-651 on cell functions. This study reveals that piR-651 promotes proliferation and migration and induces apoptosis of breast cancer cells by facilitating DNMT1-mediated PTEN promoter methylation, which may provide a potential therapeutic mechanism for breast cancer.

J Pharm Biomed Anal 2021; 203:114225. [PMID: 34242947 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpba.2021.114225] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2021] [Revised: 06/13/2021] [Accepted: 06/19/2021] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
Abemaciclib is the third cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 inhibitor approved for the treatment of advanced or metastatic breast cancer. In humans, abemaciclib is extensively metabolized by CYP3A4 with the formation of three active metabolites: N-desethylabemaciclib (M2), hydroxyabemaciclib (M20) and hydroxy-N-desethylabemaciclib (M18). These metabolites showed similar potency compared to the parent drug and were significantly abundant in plasma circulation. Thus, M2, M20, and M18 may contribute to the clinical activity of abemaciclib. For this reason, an UHPLC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous quantification of abemaciclib and its active metabolites in human and mouse plasma was developed and validated to support further clinical or preclinical investigations on this drug. Samples were processed by protein precipitation with acetonitrile, followed by supernatant dilution and filtration. Chromatographic separation was performed on a Kinetex C18 column (150 × 2.1 mm ID, 2.6 μm) using gradient elution with 10 mM ammonium bicarbonate in water (eluent A) and in methanol-water (9:1, v/v, eluent B). This method was selective, linear, accurate and precise within the range of 1-600 ng/mL for abemaciclib, 0.5-300 ng/mL for M2 and M20, and 0.2-120 ng/mL for M18. Furthermore, stability of the analytes in human and mouse plasma samples in several conditions was demonstrated. Finally, this assay was successfully used in a preclinical pharmacokinetic study, where abemaciclib and its active metabolites were identified and quantified. Inter-species differences between human and mouse samples were encountered, especially in the formation of M20, where isomers of this compound were detected in mouse plasma, but not in human plasma. This was confirmed by high resolution-mass spectrometry (HR-MS) measurements.
