Abstract
Rhabdomyolysis syndrome refers to the breakdown and necrosis of muscle tissue due to various reasons and caused by the release of intracellular contents into the blood stream, which can lead to acute renal failure or even death. In this article, we describe for the first time a case report of severe rhabdomyolysis induced by etoposide-nedaplatin chemotherapy in a small cell lung cancer (SCLC IIIb) patient. The patient developed progressive general muscle pain and weakness after the first cycle of chemotherapy, accompanied by elevated creatine kinase (CK), myoglobin (Mb), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), spartate aminotransferase (AST), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). Examination of and inquiry regarding the medical history were used to exclude various factors of rhabdomyolysis caused by trauma, strenuous activities, infections, drugs, hyperthermia, and immunity; the patient was diagnosed with severe rhabdomyolysis induced by chemotherapy. After treatment with intravenous fluids and methylprednisolone, the patient's symptoms were relieved and laboratory results were significantly improved. An unexpected situation arose, in that the lung CT scan showed that the lung mass was significantly smaller than that before chemotherapy; the reason for this is not clear. Rhabdomyolysis induced by anti-cancer drugs, especially chemotherapy drugs, is rarely reported and easily overlooked. Therefore, physicians should be aware of this rare but potentially serious complication when using chemotherapy drugs.

Int J Pharm 2023; 635:122708. [PMID: 36764415 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2023.122708] [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: 10/21/2022] [Revised: 01/15/2023] [Accepted: 02/04/2023] [Indexed: 02/11/2023]
Abstract
Nedaplatin (NDP) plays an important role in the chemotherapies of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, dose-limiting toxicities such as myelosuppression and drug resistance restrict its clinical application. Herein, we intended to overcome these defects by developing a PEGylated liposomal formulation encapsulated NDP (NDP-LPs). For the first time, we found the incompatibility between NDP and natural phospholipids such as egg phosphatidylcholine (EPC) using the high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method. The orthogonal experimental design was applied to optimize the conditions for preparing NDP-LPs, with encapsulation efficiency (EE) as the evaluation indicator. The physicochemical properties of optimized NDP-LPs were further characterized, including particle size, zeta potential, EE, drug release profiles, and so on. Results showed that a significantly sustained-release profile of NDP-LPs was observed and the releasing time of NDP could reach as long as 8 days. At the cellular level, NDP encapsulated in the PEGylated liposomes enhanced its cellular uptake and possessed potent cytotoxic activity. After intravenous injection, NDP-LPs could accumulate at tumor sites and effectivelyinhibit tumor growth of mice without obvious adverse effects. In conclusion, our results demonstrated that PEGylated liposomes could serve as a promising carrier to enhance the therapeutic effects of NDP.

[PMID: 35586682 PMCID: PMC9110163 DOI: 10.1155/2022/2256671] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2022] [Accepted: 04/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
Background Yiqi Yangjing prescription (YQYJ) is a traditional Chinese medicine prescription used for treating lung cancer. It has a significant effect on enhancing efficacy, reducing toxic symptoms, and improving patients' physical well-being. The effective inhibitory effect on nonsmall-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has been demonstrated in vitro and in vivo. However, the mechanism of action and the material basis still remain unclear. Methods In this study, we explored this mechanism using network pharmacology, after which we explored the pharmacodynamics and the action mechanism of YQYJ using cell viability evaluation, plate clone formation assay, flow cytometry, real-time quantitative PCR, and Western blot. Results The enrichment results showed that there were 50 active components and 68 core targets related to YQYJ inhibiting NSCLC, including quercetin, luteolin, gamatin, kaempferol, heat shock protein HSP 90-alpha (HSP90AA1), cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), and others. Among them, quercetin and kaempferol revealed the best binding effect with core targets. Most importantly, YQYJ promoted A549 cells from the quiescent phase into the proliferative phase to enhance the sensitivity of A549 cells to YQYJ and inhibited the proliferation of A549 cells significantly (P < 0.05). The A549 cells were blocked in both S and G2/M phases while the apoptosis ratio was increased. The proliferation score of A549 cells treated with YQYJ was significantly reduced compared to A549 cells in the proliferative phase (P < 0.05). This regulatory effect was related to the expression regulation of HSP90AA1, CDK2, STAT3, and phosphor-STAT3 (p-STAT3) by YQYJ, kaempferol, and quercetin. Conclusion Our results suggested that the inhibition of NSCLC via YQYJ had multicomponent and multitarget characteristics. Its core mechanism is related to the regulation of the cell cycle, proliferation, and apoptosis of NSCLC. This study provides a direction and scientific basis for exploring the future mechanism of YQYJ for the treatment of NSCLC.

MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2021; 57:1252. [PMID: 34833470 PMCID: PMC8618045 DOI: 10.3390/medicina57111252] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2021] [Revised: 11/05/2021] [Accepted: 11/09/2021] [Indexed: 01/11/2023]
Abstract
Background and Objectives: Lung cancer is the second most common cancer in the world. Non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) makes up 85% of all lung cancer cases and the majority of patients are diagnosed when the cancer is advanced. Over the years, many anticancer drugs have been designed and introduced into the market to treat patients with advanced NSCLC. This review aims to discuss the comparative therapeutic benefits of conventional chemotherapeutics and other drugs available for treating advanced NSCLC. Materials and Methods: A literature search for first-line treatment of advanced NSCLC was carried out on PubMed and Google Scholar. Objective response rate (ORR) and overall survival were chosen as target endpoints. Results: Monotherapy showed lower treatment endpoints compared to combination therapy. Different combinations of platinum-based doublets demonstrated similar efficacies in treating NSCLC. However, pemetrexed-platinum doublets showed significantly better treatment endpoint in patients with non-squamous NSCLC. Most studies showing the best complete response rate (CRR) utilized epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI), while most studies producing the best overall survival included programmed death-1/programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) inhibitors in their treatment regimens. Conclusions: The findings of this review indicate that targeted therapy using specific inhibitors is now the most promising first-line anticancer treatment available in the market. However, chemotherapy is still effective in treating advanced NSCLC and is viable as a first-line treatment.

[PMID: 28977948 PMCID: PMC5617508 DOI: 10.18632/oncotarget.17499] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2016] [Accepted: 04/17/2017] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) consists of several subtypes, including adenocarcinoma, squamous cell lung cancer, large cell lung cancer, and other rarer types. Platinum-based regimens are currently the standard for treatment of advanced NSCLC. Nedaplatin is reportedly associated with a high response rate in squamous cell lung cancer. However, the relevant studies are small and mainly descriptive. The purpose of this meta-analysis was therefore to compare the efficacy of nedaplatin in squamous cell lung cancer with that in non-squamous cell lung cancer. Studies concerning nedaplatin-based regimens in NSCLC patients were retrieved from PubMed and EMBASE. The response rate for nedaplatin-based regimens in squamous cell lung cancer (ORR: 55.6%, 95% CI: 52.5-58.7%) was higher (OR: 1.55, 95% CI: 1.17-2.05) than that for non-squamous cell lung cancer (ORR: 34.4%, 95% CI: 32.3-36.5%). In addition, Taxane plus nedaplatin produced a longer overall and progress-free survival than CPT-11 or gemcitabine plus nedaplatin. To verify these findings, future well-controlled clinical studies will be needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This analysis was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a combination of gemcitabine and nedaplatin in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer. METHODS Clinical studies evaluating the efficacy and safety of a combination of gemcitabine and nedaplatin with attention to response and safety for patients with non-small cell lung cancer were identified using a predefined search strategy. Pooled response rates for gemcitabine and nedaplatin were calculated. RESULTS In gemcitabine and nedaplatin based regimens, 4 clinical studies including 112 patients with non-small cell lung cancer were considered eligible for inclusion. The pooled analysis suggested that the pooled reponse rate was 40.2% (45/112). Main side effects included grade 3-4 neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and anemia. Grade 3-4 nonhematological toxicity included nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, and hepatic dysfunction. There were no treatment-related deaths. CONCLUSION This evidence based analysis suggests that the combination of gemcitabine and nedaplatin is associated with good response rate and accepted toxicity for treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

Abstract
AXL1717 is an orally bioavailable IGF-1R pathway modulator that has been shown to have anti-tumoral effects. The objectives of the present study were to define maximum tolerated dose and the recommended phase II dose (RPTD) of AXL1717 in combination with gemcitabine HCl and carboplatin in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Patients with previously untreated, locally advanced, or metastatic NSCLC (squamous cell cancer or adenocarcinoma) in good performance status and with preserved major organ functions were enrolled in the study. The study was an open-label phase I study with planned cohorts of three patients per dose level of AXL1717 (215, 290, and 390 mg BID). In total, 12 patients were enrolled in the study, and of these, two were prematurely excluded. AXL1717 was administered at one dose level, 215 mg BID. A total number of 81 unique adverse events were reported. Bone marrow toxicity was reported in 10 out of 12 patients, and this organ class showed the largest number of related events. AXL1717 in combination with gemcitabine HCl and carboplatin is a possible treatment approach in previously untreated, locally advanced, or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer. However, due to the bone marrow toxicity profile shown in the present study, further dose increases of AXL1717 above 215 mg BID will probably not be feasible. Therefore, 215 mg BID constitutes maximum tolerated dose and RPTD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To observe the short-term efficacy, long-term survival time and adverse responses with nedaplatin (NDP) or cisplatin (DDP) concomitant with other chemotherapy in treating non-small cell lung cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective, randomized, control study was conducted, in which 619 NSCLC patients in phases III and IV who were initially treated and re-treated were randomly divided into an NDP group (n=294) and a DDP group (n=325), the latter being regarded as controls. Chemotherapeutic protocols (CP/DP/GP/NP/TP) containing NDP or DDP were given to both groups. Patients in both groups were further divided to evaluate the clinical efficacies according to initial and re-treatment stage, pathological pattern, type of combined chemotherapeutic protocols, tumor stage and surgery. RESULTS The overall response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) in the NDP group were 48.6% and 95.2%, significantly higher than in the DDP group at 35.1% and 89.2%, respectively (P<0.01). In NSCLC patients with initial treatment, squamous carcinoma and phase III, there were significant differences in ORR and DCR between the groups (P<0.05), while ORR was significant in patients with adenocarcinoma, GP/TP and in phase IIIa (P<0.05). There was also a significant difference in DCR in patients in phase IIIb (P<0.05). According to the statistical analysis of survival time of all patients and of those in clinical phase III, the NDP group survived significantly longer than the DDP group (P<0.01). The rates of decreased hemoglobin and increased creatinine, nausea and vomiting in the NDP group were evidently lower than in DDP group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION NDP concomitant with other chemotherapy is effective for treating NSCLC, with higher clinical efficacy than DDP concomitant with chemotherapy, with advantages in prolonging survival time and reducing toxic and adverse responses.
