[PMID: 37787114 PMCID: PMC10907096 DOI: 10.1093/brain/awad339] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2023] [Revised: 07/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/12/2023] [Indexed: 10/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Progress in the development of effective chemotherapy is producing a growing population of patients with acute and chronic painful chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), a serious treatment-limiting side effect for which there is currently no US Food and Drug Administration-approved treatment. CIPNs induced by diverse classes of chemotherapy drugs have remarkably similar clinical presentations, leading to the suggestion they share underlying mechanisms. Sensory neurons share with immune cells the ability to detect damage associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), molecules produced by diverse cell types in response to cellular stress and injury, including by chemotherapy drugs. DAMPs, in turn, are ligands for pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), several of which are found on sensory neurons, as well as satellite cells, and cells of the immune system. In the present experiments, we evaluated the role of two PRRs, TLR4 and RAGE, present in dorsal root ganglion (DRG), in CIPN. Antisense (AS)-oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) against TLR4 and RAGE mRNA were administered intrathecally before ('prevention protocol') or 3 days after ('reversal protocol') the last administration of each of three chemotherapy drugs that treat cancer by different mechanisms (oxaliplatin, paclitaxel and bortezomib). TLR4 and RAGE AS-ODN prevented the development of CIPN induced by all three chemotherapy drugs. In the reversal protocol, however, while TLR4 AS-ODN completely reversed oxaliplatin- and paclitaxel-induced CIPN, in rats with bortezomib-induced CIPN it only produced a temporary attenuation. RAGE AS-ODN, in contrast, reversed CIPN induced by all three chemotherapy drugs. When a TLR4 antagonist was administered intradermally to the peripheral nociceptor terminal, it did not affect CIPN induced by any of the chemotherapy drugs. However, when administered intrathecally, to the central terminal, it attenuated hyperalgesia induced by all three chemotherapy drugs, compatible with a role of TLR4 in neurotransmission at the central terminal but not sensory transduction at the peripheral terminal. Finally, since it has been established that cultured DRG neurons can be used to study direct effects of chemotherapy on nociceptors, we also evaluated the role of TLR4 in CIPN at the cellular level, using patch-clamp electrophysiology in DRG neurons cultured from control and chemotherapy-treated rats. We found that increased excitability of small-diameter DRG neurons induced by in vivo and in vitro exposure to oxaliplatin is TLR4-dependent. Our findings suggest that in addition to the established contribution of PRR-dependent neuroimmune mechanisms, PRRs in DRG cells also have an important role in CIPN.

Adapting and implementing breast cancer follow-up in primary care: protocol for a mixed methods hybrid type 1 effectiveness-implementation cluster randomized study. BMC PRIMARY CARE 2023; 24:235. [PMID: 37946132 PMCID: PMC10634067 DOI: 10.1186/s12875-023-02186-3] [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: 10/09/2023] [Accepted: 10/17/2023] [Indexed: 11/12/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Advances in detection and treatment for breast cancer have led to an increase in the number of individuals managing significant late and long-term treatment effects. Primary care has a role in caring for patients with a history of cancer, yet there is little guidance on how to effectively implement survivorship care evidence into primary care delivery. METHODS This protocol describes a multi-phase, mixed methods, stakeholder-driven research process that prioritizes actionable, evidence-based primary care improvements to enhance breast cancer survivorship care by integrating implementation and primary care transformation frameworks: the Exploration, Preparation, Implementation, and Sustainment (EPIS) framework and the Practice Change Model (PCM). Informed by depth interviews and a four round Delphi panel with diverse stakeholders from primary care and oncology, we will implement and evaluate an iterative clinical intervention in a hybrid type 1 effectiveness-implementation cluster randomized design in twenty-six primary care practices. Multi-component implementation strategies will include facilitation, audit and feedback, and learning collaboratives. Ongoing data collection and analysis will be performed to optimize adoption of the intervention. The primary clinical outcome to test effectiveness is comprehensive breast cancer follow-up care. Implementation will be assessed using mixed methods to explore how organizational and contextual variables affect adoption, implementation, and early sustainability for provision of follow-up care, symptom, and risk management activities at six- and 12-months post implementation. DISCUSSION Study findings are poised to inform development of scalable, high impact intervention processes to enhance long-term follow-up care for patients with a history of breast cancer in primary care. If successful, next steps would include working with a national primary care practice-based research network to implement a national dissemination study. Actionable activities and processes identified could also be applied to development of organizational and care delivery interventions for follow-up care for other cancer sites.

BMC Cancer 2023; 23:981. [PMID: 37838686 PMCID: PMC10576361 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-023-11494-x] [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: 02/04/2023] [Accepted: 10/08/2023] [Indexed: 10/16/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chemotherapy is a well-known risk factor for sensorial and motor disturbances. Chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) which predominantly affects sensory nerves might cause a diminished fine motor function. This prospective observational study aimed to assess the sensorimotor functions of breast cancer patients before, during, and after chemotherapy. METHODS A total of 56 breast cancer patients were evaluated at three different times as follows: T1 (before chemotherapy), T2 (middle chemotherapy), and T3 (completion of chemotherapy). Motor function was assessed with handgrip strength (HGS), peripheral muscle strength (PMS), and the Minnesota Manual Dexterity Test (MMDT). Semmes Weinstein Monofilament Test (SWMT) was performed to assess the sensory function. Fatigue was evaluated with the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Module Cancer Related Fatigue (EORTC-QLQ-FA12), respectively. RESULTS HGS and MMDT were found significant (χ2: 11.279, p = 0.004 and χ2: 9.893, p = 0.007, respectively) whereas PMS was not found significant (F (2,110) = 1.914, p = 0.152). Pairwise comparisons with Bonferroni adjustments revealed that HGS was found significant between T1 and T3, while significant results were obtained between T1 and T2 as well as T2 and T3 in MMDT (p = 0.01 and p = 0.042). There were significant results in some reference points of SWMT, though they were not found after pairwise comparisons with Bonferroni adjustment (p > 0.05). Fatigue was found significantly increased from T1 through T3 (Median: 19.44 vs 27.77, z: -2.347, p = 0.019, Wilcoxon test). CONCLUSION Our study showed that decreased handgrip strength and fine motor function, as well as increased fatigue, are evident during the chemotherapy. SWMT can be an optional assessment in the context of tracking changes in cutaneous sensation during chemotherapy due to its non-invasive, cheap, and easily repeatable features among cancer patients. To preserve functional capacity as well as independence in daily living, precautions and follow up assessments during the systemic therapy process should be integrated as early as possible to prevent future deteriorations in daily life for patients who undergo chemotherapy.

Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:4191.

Abstract
The chemotherapeutic agent paclitaxel causes peripheral neuropathy, a dose-limiting side effect, in up to 68% of cancer patients. In this study, we investigated the impact of paclitaxel therapy on the skin of breast cancer patients with chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), building upon previous findings in zebrafish and rodents. Comprehensive assessments, including neurological examinations and quality of life questionnaires, were conducted, followed by intraepidermal nerve fiber (IENF) density evaluations using skin punch biopsies. Additionally, RNA sequencing, immunostaining for Matrix-Metalloproteinase 13 (MMP-13), and transmission electron microscopy provided insights into molecular and ultrastructural changes in this skin. The results showed no significant difference in IENF density between the control and CIPN patients despite the presence of patient-reported CIPN symptoms. Nevertheless, the RNA sequencing and immunostaining on the skin revealed significantly upregulated MMP-13, which is known to play a key role in CIPN caused by paclitaxel therapy. Additionally, various genes involved in the regulation of the extracellular matrix, microtubules, cell cycle, and nervous system were significantly and differentially expressed. An ultrastructural examination of the skin showed changes in collagen and basement membrane structures. These findings highlight the presence of CIPN in the absence of IENF density changes and support the role of skin remodeling as a major contributor to CIPN.

Abstract
Background Nanocarrier platforms have been indicated to have great potential in clinical practice to treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Our previous Phase III clinical study revealed that polymeric micellar paclitaxel (Pm-Pac) is safe and efficacious in advanced NSCLC patients. However, the histopathological-toxicological profile of Pm-Pac in mammals remains unclear. Methods We examined the Pm-Pac-induced antitumour effect in both A549/H226 cells and A549/H226-derived xenograft tumour models.. And then, we evaluated the short-term and long-term toxicity induced by Pm-Pac in healthy Sprague‒Dawley (SD) rats. The changes in body weight, survival, peripheral neuropathy, haematology, and histopathology were studied in SD rats administered Pm-Pac at different dosages. Results In the A549-derived xenograft tumour model, better therapeutic efficacy was observed in the Pm-Pac group than in the solvent-based paclitaxel (Sb-Pac) group when an equal dosage of paclitaxel was administered. Toxicity assessments in healthy SD rats indicated that Pm-Pac caused toxicity at an approximately 2- to 3-fold greater dose than Sb-Pac when examining animal body weight, survival, peripheral neuropathy, haematology, and histopathology. Interestingly, based on histopathological examinations, we found that Pm-Pac could significantly decrease the incidences of paclitaxel-induced brain and liver injury but could potentially increase the prevalence of paclitaxel-induced male genital system toxicity. Conclusion This study introduces the toxicological profile of the engineered nanoparticle Pm-Pac and provides a novel perspective on the Pm-Pac-induced histopathological-toxicological profile in a rat model.

Abstract
Chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a particularly pernicious form of neuropathy and the associated pain is the primary dose-limiting factor of life-prolonging chemotherapy treatment. The prevalence of CIPN is high and can last long after treatment has been stopped. Currently, late in the COVID-19 pandemic, there are still increased psychological pressures on cancer patients as well as additional challenges in providing analgesia for them. These include the risks of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) analgesics potentially masking early infection symptoms and the immunosuppression of steroidal and opiate based approaches. Even without these concerns, CIPN is often inadequately treated with few therapies that offer significant pain relief. The experiments we report use soluble epoxide hydrolase inhibitors (sEHI) which relieved this intractable pain in preclinical models. Doses of EC5026, an IND candidate intended to treat neuropathic pain, elicited dose dependent analgesic responses in multiple models including platinum-based, taxane, and vinca alkaloid-based CIPN pain in Sprague Dawley rats. At the same time as a class, the sEHI are known to result in fewer debilitating side effects of other analgesics, likely due to their novel mechanism of action. Overall, the observed dose-dependent analgesia in both male and female rats across multiple models of chemotherapy induced neuropathic pain holds promise as a useful tool when translated to the clinic.

Towards a mechanistic understanding of axon transport and endocytic changes underlying paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy. Exp Neurol 2023; 359:114258.

Abstract
Paclitaxel is a common chemotherapeutic agent widely used to treat solid cancer. However, it frequently causes peripheral sensory neuropathy, resulting in sensory abnormalities and pain in patients receiving treatment for cancer. As one of the most widely used chemotherapeutics, many preclinical studies on paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy (PIPN) have been performed. Yet, there remain no effective options for treatment or prevention. Due to paclitaxel's ability to bind to and stabilize microtubules, a change in microtubule dynamics and subsequent disruptions in axonal transport has been predicted as a major underlying cause of paclitaxel-induced toxicity. However, the systemic understanding of PIPN mechanisms is largely incomplete, and various phenotypes have not been directly attributed to microtubule-related effects. This review aims to provide an overview of the literature involving paclitaxel-induced alteration in microtubule dynamics, axonal transport, and endocytic changes. It also aims to provide insights into how the microtubule-mediated hypothesis may relate to various phenotypes reported in PIPN studies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is essential for surgical downstaging of early-stage breast cancer, but taxane administration is associated with neuropathy. We investigated whether eribulin induces less neuropathy than paclitaxel. METHODS In this multicentre, randomised study (UMIN000012817), patients diagnosed with invasive breast cancer between December 2013 and April 2016 were randomly assigned to group E (eribulin followed by fluorouracil, epirubicin, and cyclophosphamide; FEC) or group P (paclitaxel followed by FEC). The primary endpoint was incidence of grade 1 or higher peripheral neuropathy according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE). Secondary endpoints were pathological complete response (pCR), clinical response, breast-conserving surgery, adverse events, disease-free survival (DFS), and patient neurotoxicity questionnaire (PNQ) analysis. RESULTS One hundred and eighteen cases were analyzed for safety and 115 were evaluated for efficacy. Peripheral sensory neuropathy was significantly lower in group E after week 6, while peripheral motor neuropathy in group E was significantly lower at weeks 9, 12, and 15. pCR in groups E and P was 20.7% and 29.8% (P = .289), respectively, and clinical response was 55.2% and 77.2% (P = .017), respectively. Three-year DFS was 89.7% in group E and 86.0% in group P (P = .561). Neutropenia was more frequent and more severe in group E. PNQ was evaluated for 4 years, and item 1 (sensory) was consistently lower in group E. CONCLUSION Neuropathy was significantly less frequent and less severe in patients who received eribulin compared with paclitaxel. Thus, eribulin could be a good alternative to paclitaxel in patients suffering severe neuropathy.

Xu Z, Wang X, Wu Y, Wang C, Fang X. The effectiveness and safety of acupuncture for chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Front Neurol 2022; 13:963358. [PMID: 36262831 PMCID: PMC9574072 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2022.963358] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2022] [Accepted: 09/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of acupuncture on chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). Methods We searched for relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Embase databases from their inception to 1 April 2022. The Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy/Gynecologic Oncology Group-Neurotoxicity (FACT/GOG-Ntx), Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form (BPI-SF), the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core30 (EORTC QLQ-C30), Numerical Rating Scale (NRS), and adverse events were the outcome measures. All studies had at least one of these outcome measures. Mean differences (MDs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were assessed in the meta-analysis using the RevMan 5.3 software. Results Five studies were included in the analysis. The results showed that acupuncture and placebo acupuncture were not significantly different in reducing chemotherapy-induced neurotoxicity and functional disability (random-effects estimates; MD: 4.30; 95% CI: −0.85~9.45; P = 0.10; I2 = 74%). Acupuncture was better than placebo acupuncture in reducing pain severity and pain interference with patients' daily function (fixed-effect estimates; MD: −1.14; 95% CI: 1.87 to −0.42; P = 0.002; I2 = 13%). Acupuncture was not significantly different from placebo acupuncture in relieving CIPN symptoms (MD: −0.81; 95% CI: −2.02 to 0.40, P = 0.19). Acupuncture improved quality of life better than placebo acupuncture (MD: 10.10; 95% CI: 12.34 to 17.86, P = 0.01). No severe adverse events were recorded in all five studies. Conclusion This meta-analysis suggests that acupuncture may be more effective and safer in reducing pain severity and pain interference with patients' daily function than placebo acupuncture. Additionally, acupuncture may improve the quality of life of patients with CIPN. However, large sample size studies are needed to confirm this conclusion.

Pain Ther 2022; 11:1113-1136. [PMID: 36098939 PMCID: PMC9469051 DOI: 10.1007/s40122-022-00431-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2022] [Accepted: 08/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is the most common neurologic complication of chemotherapy, resulting in symptoms like pain, sensory loss, and numbness in the hands and feet that cause lots of uneasiness in patients with cancer. They often suffer from pain so severe that it interrupts the treatment, thus invalidating the entire chemotherapy-based healing process, and significantly reducing their quality of life. In this paper, we underline the role of the complement system in CIPN, highlighting the relevance of the C5a fragment and its receptor C5aR1, whose activation is thought to be involved in triggering a cascade of events that can lead to CIPN onset. Recent experimental data showed the ability of docetaxel and paclitaxel to specifically bind and activate C5aR1, thus shining light on one of the molecular mechanisms by which taxanes may activate a cascade of events leading to neuropathy. According to these new evidence, it was possible to suggest new mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology of CIPN. Hence, the C5a/C5aR1 axis may represent a new target for CIPN treatment, and the use of C5aR1 inhibitors can be proposed as a potential new therapeutic option to manage this high unmet medical need.

Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most common malignancies affecting women and the leading cause of related mortality worldwide. An estimated 2260000 new cases of BC were diagnosed in 2020, which have seriously threatened the health. Paclitaxel (PTX), a natural product isolated from the bark of the pacific yew, has been found to be effective in treating advanced BC. Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), which refers to the damage to the peripheral nerves caused by exposure to a neurotoxic chemotherapeutic agent, is a common side effect affecting the patients undergoing PTX chemotherapy. Significant research efforts are needed to identify the various risk factors associated with CIPN. Here, a univariate analysis in BC patients with nanonab-PTX treatment was performed. The rate of CIPN in BC patients with albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-PTX) for more than four weeks was significantly higher than that of patients with chemotherapy for less than four weeks. Moreover, the rate of CIPN in BC patients receiving nab-PTX first-line chemotherapy was remarkably higher than that in BC patients receiving paclitaxel as a sequence scheme. Taken together, chemotherapy cycles and the priority of nab-PTX-based chemotherapy can be considered the potential risk factors for CIPN induced by nab-PTX.

Abstract
ABSTRACT High-molecular-weight hyaluronan (HMWH) is an agonist at cluster of differentiation (CD)44, the cognate hyaluronan receptor, on nociceptors, where it acts to induce antihyperalgesia in preclinical models of inflammatory and neuropathic pain. In the present experiments, we studied the CD44 second messengers that mediate HMWH-induced attenuation of pain associated with oxaliplatin and paclitaxel chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). While HMWH attenuated CIPN only in male rats, after ovariectomy or intrathecal administration of an oligodeoxynucleotide (ODN) antisense to G protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPR30) mRNA, female rats were also sensitive to HMWH. Intrathecal administration of an ODN antisense to CD44 mRNA markedly attenuated HMWH-induced antihyperalgesia in male rats with CIPN induced by oxaliplatin or paclitaxel. Intradermal administration of inhibitors of CD44 second messengers, RhoA (member of the Rho family of GTPases), phospholipase C, and phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase gamma (PI3Kγ), attenuated HMWH-induced antihyperalgesia as does intrathecal administration of an ODN antisense to PI3Kγ. Our results demonstrated that HMWH induced antihyperalgesia in CIPN, mediated by its action at CD44 and downstream signaling by RhoA, phospholipase C, and PI3Kγ.

Abstract
DisclaimerThis article is based on recommendations from the 12th WALT Congress, Nice, October 3-6, 2018, and a follow-up review of the existing data and the clinical observations of an international multidisciplinary panel of clinicians and researchers with expertise in the area of supportive care in cancer and/or PBM clinical application and dosimetry. This article is informational in nature. As with all clinical materials, this paper should be used with a clear understanding that continued research and practice could result in new insights and recommendations. The review reflects the collective opinion and, as such, does not necessarily represent the opinion of any individual author. In no event shall the authors be liable for any decision made or action taken in reliance on the proposed protocols.ObjectiveThis position paper reviews the potential prophylactic and therapeutic effects of photobiomodulation (PBM) on side effects of cancer therapy, including chemotherapy (CT), radiation therapy (RT), and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).BackgroundThere is a considerable body of evidence supporting the efficacy of PBM for preventing oral mucositis (OM) in patients undergoing RT for head and neck cancer (HNC), CT, or HSCT. This could enhance patients’ quality of life, adherence to the prescribed cancer therapy, and treatment outcomes while reducing the cost of cancer care.MethodsA literature review on PBM effectiveness and dosimetry considerations for managing certain complications of cancer therapy were conducted. A systematic review was conducted when numerous randomized controlled trials were available. Results were presented and discussed at an international consensus meeting at the World Association of photobiomoduLation Therapy (WALT) meeting in 2018 that included world expert oncologists, radiation oncologists, oral oncologists, and oral medicine professionals, physicists, engineers, and oncology researchers. The potential mechanism of action of PBM and evidence of PBM efficacy through reported outcomes for individual indications were assessed.ResultsThere is a large body of evidence demonstrating the efficacy of PBM for preventing OM in certain cancer patient populations, as recently outlined by the Multinational Association for Supportive Care in Cancer/International Society of Oral Oncology (MASCC/ISOO). Building on these, the WALT group outlines evidence and prescribed PBM treatment parameters for prophylactic and therapeutic use in supportive care for radiodermatitis, dysphagia, xerostomia, dysgeusia, trismus, mucosal and bone necrosis, lymphedema, hand-foot syndrome, alopecia, oral and dermatologic chronic graft-versus-host disease, voice/speech alterations, peripheral neuropathy, and late fibrosis amongst cancer survivors.ConclusionsThere is robust evidence for using PBM to prevent and treat a broad range of complications in cancer care. Specific clinical practice guidelines or evidence-based expert consensus recommendations are provided. These recommendations are aimed at improving the clinical utilization of PBM therapy in supportive cancer care and promoting research in this field. It is anticipated these guidelines will be revised periodically.

Breast Cancer Res Treat 2022; 194:551-560.

Abstract
PURPOSE Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is the major treatment-limiting toxicity of paclitaxel, which predominantly presents as sensory symptoms, with motor symptoms in some patients. Differentiating CIPN into subtypes has been recommended to direct CIPN research. The objective of this study was to investigate whether sensory and motor CIPN are distinct subtypes with different predictive biomarkers in patients with breast cancer receiving paclitaxel. METHODS Data were from a prospective cohort of 60 patients with breast cancer receiving up to 12 weekly infusions of 80 mg/m2 paclitaxel (NCT02338115). European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life questionnaire CIPN20 was used to evaluate CIPN. Clusters of the time course of sensory (CIPNS), motor (CIPNM), and the difference between sensory and motor (CIPNS-CIPNM) were identified using k-means clustering on principal component scores. Predictive metabolomic biomarkers of maximum CIPNS and CIPNM were investigated using linear regressions adjusted for baseline CIPN, paclitaxel pharmacokinetics, and body mass index. RESULTS More sensory than motor CIPN was found (CIPNS change: mean = 10.8, ranged [-3.3, 52.1]; CIPNM change: mean = 3.5, range: [-7.5, 35.0]). Three groups were identified with No CIPN, Mixed CIPN, and Sensory-dominant CIPN (maximum CIPNS: mean = 12.7 vs. 40.9 vs. 74.3, p < 0.001; maximum CIPNM: mean = 5.4 vs. 25.5 vs. 36.1, p < 0.001; average CIPNS-CIPNM: mean = 2.8 vs. 5.8 vs. 24.9, p < 0.001). Biomarkers of motor CIPN were similar to previously identified biomarkers of sensory CIPN, including lower serum histidine (p = 0.029). CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that sensory and motor CIPN co-occur and may not have differentiating metabolic biomarkers. These findings need to be validated in larger cohorts of patients treated with paclitaxel and other neurotoxic agents to determine the optimal approach to predict, prevent, and treat CIPN and improve patients' outcomes.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a highly prevalent and complex condition arising from chemotherapy cancer treatments. Currently, there are no treatment or prevention options in the clinic. CIPN accompanies pain-related sensory functions starting from the hands and feet. Studies focusing on neurons in vitro and in vivo models significantly advanced our understanding of CIPN pathological mechanisms. However, given the direct toxicity shown in both neurons and non-neuronal cells, effective in vivo or in vitro models that allow the investigation of neurons in their local environment are required. No single model can provide a complete solution for the required investigation, therefore, utilizing a multi-model approach would allow complementary advantages of different models and robustly validate findings before further translation. This review aims first to summarize approaches and insights from CIPN in vivo models utilizing small model organisms. We will focus on Drosophila melanogaster CIPN models that are genetically amenable and accessible to study neuronal interactions with the local environment in vivo. Second, we will discuss how these findings could be tested in physiologically relevant vertebrate models. We will focus on in vitro approaches using human cells and summarize the current understanding of engineering approaches that may allow the investigation of pathological changes in neurons and the skin environment.

Abstract
Since the first clinical trials conducted after World War II, chemotherapeutic drugs have been extensively used in the clinic as the main cancer treatment either alone or as an adjuvant therapy before and after surgery. Although the use of chemotherapeutic drugs improved the survival of cancer patients, these drugs are notorious for causing many severe side effects that significantly reduce the efficacy of anti-cancer treatment and patients’ quality of life. Many widely used chemotherapy drugs including platinum-based agents, taxanes, vinca alkaloids, proteasome inhibitors, and thalidomide analogs may cause direct and indirect neurotoxicity. In this review we discuss the main effects of chemotherapy on the peripheral and central nervous systems, including neuropathic pain, chemobrain, enteric neuropathy, as well as nausea and emesis. Understanding mechanisms involved in chemotherapy-induced neurotoxicity is crucial for the development of drugs that can protect the nervous system, reduce symptoms experienced by millions of patients, and improve the outcome of the treatment and patients’ quality of life.

Abstract
Paclitaxel (PTX)-induced peripheral neuropathy (PIPN) induces numerous symptoms affecting patient quality of life, leading to decreased doses or even to cessation of anticancer therapy. Previous studies have reported that a widely used drug, ramipril, improves neuroprotection in several rodent models of peripheral neuropathy. The protective role of the angiotensin II type 2 receptor (AT2) in the central and peripheral nervous systems is well-established. Here, we evaluate the effects of ramipril in the prevention of PIPN and the involvement of AT2 in this effect. Paclitaxel was administered in wild type or AT2-deficient mice on alternate days for 8 days, at a cumulative dose of 8 mg/kg (2 mg/kg per injection). Ramipril, PD123319 (an AT2 antagonist), or a combination of both were administered one day before PTX administration, and daily for the next twenty days. PTX-administered mice developed mechanical allodynia and showed a loss of sensory nerve fibers. Ramipril prevented the functional and morphological alterations in PTX mice. The preventive effect of ramipril against tactile allodynia was completely absent in AT2-deficient mice and was counteracted by PD123319 administration in wild type mice. Our work highlights the potential of ramipril as a novel preventive treatment for PIPN, and points to the involvement of AT2 in the neuroprotective role of ramipril in PIPN.

Abstract
Increased utilization of chemotherapy in breast cancer patients has led to improved survival outcomes but it has also resulted in rising incidence of adverse effects. Occurrence of new/unreported side effect poses challenge in front of clinicians. We report the case of a 53-year lady with locally advanced, hormone receptor-positive, and human epidermal growth factor-2 (HER-2) negative right breast carcinoma. She was started on neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) (doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide), to facilitate breast-conserving surgery. She developed an inflammatory reaction involving the affected breast after each of three cycles of NACT (2 cycles of doxorubicin & cyclophosphamide, and 1 cycle of docetaxel). Infectious causes and disease progression were ruled out. She was then prescribed hormone therapy but the disease progressed after three months of therapy and the patient had to be subjected to modified radical mastectomy (MRM). She then received adjuvant radiotherapy and is currently doing well on second-line hormone therapy.

Abstract
Pharmacogenetic testing in patients with cancer requiring cytotoxic chemotherapy offers the potential to predict, prevent, and mitigate chemotherapy-related toxicities. While multiple drug-gene pairs have been identified and studied, few drug-gene pairs are currently used routinely in the clinical status. Here we review what is known, theorized, and unknown regarding the use of pharmacogenetic testing in cancer.

Abstract
Purpose Taxanes are widely used in gynecological cancer therapy, however, taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy (TIPN) limits chemotherapy dose and reduces patients’ quality of life. As a safe and convenient intervention, cryotherapy has been recommended as a promising intervention in the recent clinical guidelines for the prevention of TIPN. Although there are a considerable number of studies which explored the use of cryotherapy in preventing chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), there is insufficient large-scale clinical evidence. We performed a meta-analysis on the current available evidence to examine whether cryotherapy can prevent TIPN in cancer patients receiving taxanes. Methods We searched databases including PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane from inception to August 3, 2021 for eligible trials. Clinical trials that examined the efficacy of cryotherapy for prevention of TIPN were included. The primary outcome was the incidence of TIPN, and secondary outcomes were incidence of taxane dose reduction and changes in nerve conduction studies. The meta-analysis software (RevMan 5.3) was used to analyze the data. Results We analyzed 2250 patients from 9 trials. Assessments using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) score showed that cryotherapy could significantly reduce the incidence of motor and sensory neuropathy of grade≥2 (sensory: RR 0.65, 95%CI 0.56 to 0.75, p<0.00001; motor: RR 0.18, 95% CI [0.03, 0.94], p=0.04). When evaluated using the Patient Neuropathy Questionnaire (PNQ), cryotherapy demonstrated significant reduction in the incidence of sensory neuropathy (RR 0.11, 95% CI 0.04 to 0.31], p<0.0001), but did not show significant reduction in the incidence of motor neuropathy (RR 0.46, 95% CI 0.11 to 1.88, p=0.28). Cryotherapy was associated with reduced incidences of taxane dose reduction due to TIPN (RR 0.48, 95% CI [0.24, 0.95], p=0.04) and had potential to preserve motor nerves. Conclusions Cryotherapy is likely to prevent TIPN in patients receiving taxanes. High quality and sufficient amount of evidence is warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Paclitaxel is a taxane-based chemotherapeutic agent used as a treatment in breast cancer. There is no effective prevention or treatment strategy for the most common side effect of peripheral neuropathy. In this manuscript, we reviewed the molecular mechanisms that contribute to paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy (PIPN) with an emphasis on immune-related processes. METHODS A systematic search of the literature was conducted in PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane Library. The SYRCLE's risk of bias tool was used to assess internal validity. RESULTS 156 studies conducted with rodent models were included. The risk of bias was high due to unclear methodology. Paclitaxel induces changes in myelinated axons, mitochondrial dysfunction, and mechanical hypersensitivity by affecting ion channels expression and function and facilitating spinal transmission. Paclitaxel-induced inflammatory responses are important contributors to PIPN. CONCLUSION Immune-related processes are an important mechanism contributing to PIPN. Studies in humans that validate these mechanistic data are highly needed to facilitate the development of therapeutic strategies.

Perturbations of Adjuvant Chemotherapy on Cardiovascular Responses and Exercise Tolerance in Patients with Early-Stage Breast Cancer. BIOLOGY 2021; 10:biology10090910.

Abstract
Simple Summary The present study aimed to assess and compare the effects of receiving CAF (cyclophosphamide/doxorubicin/fluorouracil) and AC-T (doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide→taxanes) on exercise tolerance and cardiovascular responses in patients with early-stage breast cancer. We herein demonstrated that AC-T chemotherapy increased resting heart rate (RHR) and induced a greater reduction in exercise tolerance at the end of chemotherapy compared with CAF. Moreover, AC-T also lowered myocardial perfusion more than CAF, and it appeared that myocardial impairment occurred before the development of arterial stiffening after chemotherapy. We, therefore, suggest that AC-T chemotherapy might further limit the exercise capacity of patients with early-stage breast cancer. This study provides fundamental information regarding the variety of cardiovascular responses to exercise after chemotherapy in patients with early-stage breast cancer. This information will help clinical professionals in the fields of oncological and rehabilitation medicine to precisely prescribe post-chemotherapy exercise programs when patients are receiving different chemotherapies. Abstract Background: Adjuvant chemotherapies are commonly used for treating early-stage breast cancer. However, whether chemotherapeutic regimens affect exercise tolerance and cardiovascular responses remains unclear. Therefore, we investigated the effects of receiving CAF and AC-T on exercise tolerance and cardiovascular responses in patients with early-stage breast cancer. Methods: Thirty-four patients with breast cancer (age: 44 ± 1 years; stage I-II) received either CAF (n = 15) or AC-T (n = 19), depending on clinical decisions. Their step-exercise tolerance and cardiovascular responses were assessed before and after chemotherapy. Results: After chemotherapy, there were no differences in baseline measurements between patients receiving CAF or AC-T. The increases in resting heart rate (RHR) of those receiving AC-T was significantly greater than that of those receiving CAF. CAF and AC-T did not result in increased pulse wave velocity (PWV), yet the subendocardial viability ratio (SEVR) in patients receiving AC-T was significantly lower than the baseline. Greater change in post-exercise heart rate recovery (recovery HR) after chemotherapy was observed in those who had received AC-T; the Recovery HR in AC-T patients was significantly higher during post-exercise period than that in CAF patients. Conclusions: AC-T chemotherapy increases RHR and impairs exercise tolerance after chemotherapy more than CAF. Moreover, AC-T also lowers myocardial perfusion more than CAF after chemotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is an adverse event of taxanes, with no effective prevention or treatment available and a highly negative impact on patient quality of life. The aim of this study is to asses that the constant application of cooled cuffs on the hands and feet prevent and mitigate CIPN. METHODS Patients with breast, gynecologic, and pancreatic cancer who received weekly paclitaxel (PTX), PTX/carboplatin, and nab-paclitaxel (nab-PTX)/gemcitabine for any indication at the therapeutic scheduled dosage were included in this prospective study. Hilotherm Chemo care device forms a closed-loop system with cuffs and tubes through which a coolant flows at a temperature of 10 °C. CIPN was monitored using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (edition 3.0), and the tolerability and side effects were scored by using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (T4.03 2017). RESULTS To date, we have enrolled 64 patients. Of these, 54 (84%) completed all cooling cycles. Continuous cooling was well tolerated by all patients. No patients had grade >2 CIPN or had serious or lasting adverse events as a result of Hilotherapy. The median time to CIPN onset was 77 days for the entire population. CONCLUSION Hilotherapy has good effectiveness and tolerability and seems to be able to prevent or reduce the symptoms of CIPN. We are still recruiting patients to obtain more data and to collect data at 3 months after the end of chemotherapy. Prospective studies seem to be warranted.

Abstract
Peripheral neuropathy comes in all shapes and forms and is a disorder which is found in the peripheral nervous system. It can have an acute or chronic onset depending on the multitude of pathophysiologic mechanisms involving different parts of nerve fibers. A systematic approach is highly beneficial when it comes to cost-effective diagnosis. More than 30 causes of peripheral neuropathy exist ranging from systemic and auto-immune diseases, vitamin deficiencies, viral infections, diabetes, etc. One of the major causes of peripheral neuropathy is drug induced disease, which can be split into peripheral neuropathy caused by chemotherapy or by other medications. This review deals with the latest causes of drug induced peripheral neuropathy, the population involved, the findings on physical examination and various workups needed and how to manage each case.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common side effect that occurs in 20% of ovarian cancer patients treated with the combination of carboplatin/paclitaxel (CP). This toxicity is directly correlated with the dose of paclitaxel administered. Several studies have investigated whether different formulations of taxane can induce this side effect at a lower rate, but, unfortunately, no significant improvement was obtained. CIPN can be disabling in the daily lives of patients and can cause dose reduction or early termination of the treatment. Neuropathy can last for months and even years after its onset. Moreover, patients responsive to CP treatment are candidates for a reintroduction of the same drugs when disease relapse occurs, and residual neuropathy can affect the continuation of treatment. There are no approved drugs that mitigate or prevent the onset of CIPN. In this review, we summarize the evidence regarding the incidence of CIPN with different taxane formulations, regimen schedules and prevention systems. In particular, the Hilotherm® Chemo care device is a regional cooling system that lowers the temperature of the hands and feet to reduce the flow of chemotherapy into the capillaries. We used hilotherapy during chemotherapy infusion to prevent the onset of CIPN. Updated data from 44 ovarian cancer patients treated with 6 cycle of CP show that hilotherapy was well tolerated; only two patients (4.5%) stopped hilotherapy because of cold intolerance, and only one patient (2.2%) experienced grade ≥ 2 CIPN.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Treatment with taxane-containing chemotherapy regimens is crucial for improving survival in patients with early-stage invasive breast cancer. Recent literature describes a high incidence of taxane-induced neuropathic pain or/and muscle and joint pain. For patients, oncology nurses can play an integral role as a resource for pain control. There is a knowledge gap regarding how nurses perceive patients' experienced taxane-induced pain and support from their organizations when caring for patients with such pain. AIM Investigate nurses' perceptions of occurrence of taxane-induced pain and identify organizational support for managing such pain. MATERIAL AND METHODS A cross-sectional observation study, conducted in 2017-2018, with a web-based questionnaire to 240 nurses working at oncology outpatient units in Sweden. The areas of concern were start-decline, duration, prevalence, intensity, and bodily distribution of taxane-induced pain. Patient information, guidelines, prophylactic analgesia, and perceived support were used to counteract such pain. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and a logistic regression model to estimate associations. RESULTS One hundred sixty-one nurses completed the questionnaire, describing their perceptions of taxane-induced pain in patients with breast cancer. The prevalence and intensity of taxane-induced pain were experienced as divergent. Some consensus was found among the nurses regarding the start of the pain, but not when declined. The body areas where pain was expected to occur were the muscles, joints, legs, feet, and mainly the back of the trunk. Low use of local/national guidelines for managing taxane-induced pain was described. No relationship was found between factors related to the nurses' characteristics (age, work experience in oncology care, or specialist education in oncology) that significantly affected their perceptions regarding the occurrence of taxane-induced pain or pain intensity. Conclusion: This study highlights a need for attention to education and guidelines for how to observe, treat, and evaluate this particular type of pain.

Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) remains complex for women both physically and psychologically. The objectives of this study were to (1) assess the evolution of the main sequelae and treatment two and five years after diagnosis in women with early-stage breast cancer, (2) explore patterns of sequelae associated with given sociodemographic, clinical, and lifestyle factors. The current analysis was based on 654 localized BC patients enrolled in the French nationwide longitudinal survey "vie après cancer" VICAN (January-June 2010). Information about study participants was collected at enrollment, two and five years after diagnosis. Changes over time of the main sequelae were analyzed and latent class analysis was performed to identify patterns of sequelae related to BC five years after diagnosis. The mean age (±SD) of study participants at inclusion was 49.7 (±10.5) years old. Six main classes of sequelae were identified two years and five years post-diagnosis (functional, pain, esthetic, fatigue, psychological, and gynecological). A significant decrease was observed for fatigue (p = 0.03) and an increase in cognitive sequelae was reported (p = 0.03). Two latent classes were identified-functional and esthetic patterns. Substantial sequelae remain up to five years after BC diagnosis. Changes in patient care pathways are needed to identify BC patients at a high risk.

Abstract
The increased survival of cancer patients has raised growing public health concern on associated long-term consequences of antineoplastic treatment. Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a primarily sensory polyneuropathy, which may be accompanied by pain, autonomic disturbances, and motor deficit. About 70% of treated cancer patients might develop CIPN during or after the completion of chemotherapy, and in most of them such complication persists after six months from the treatment. The definition of the potential risk of development and resolution of CIPN according to a clinical and biochemical profile would be certainly fundamental to tailor chemotherapy regimen and dosage on individual susceptibility. In recent years, patient-reported and clinician-related tools along with quality of life instruments have been featured as primary outcomes in clinical setting and randomized trials. New studies on metabolomics markers are further pursuing accurate and easily accessible indicators of peripheral nerve damage. The aim of this review is to outline the strengths and pitfalls of current knowledge on CIPN, and to provide a framework for future potential developments of standardized protocols involving clinical and biochemical markers for CIPN assessment and monitoring.

Peripheral Neuropathy under Oncologic Therapies: A Literature Review on Pathogenetic Mechanisms. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22041980.

Abstract
Peripheral neurologic complications are frequent adverse events during oncologic treatments and often lead to dose reduction, administration delays with time elongation of the therapeutic plan and, not least, worsening of patients’ quality of life. Experience skills are required to recognize symptoms and clinical evidences and the collaboration between different health professionals, in particular oncologists and hospital pharmacists, grants a correct management of this undesirable occurrence. Some classes of drugs (platinates, vinca alkaloids, taxanes) typically develop this kind of side effect, but the genesis of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy is not linked to a single mechanism. This paper aims from one side at summarizing and explaining all the scattering mechanisms of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy through a detailed literature revision, on the other side at finding new approaches to possible treatments, in order to facilitate the collaboration between oncologists, hematologists and hospital pharmacists.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to determine the longitudinal prevalence and the predictors of sickness absence (SA) and disability pension (DP) in breast cancer (BC) women who eventually developed relapse. METHODS A total of 1293 BC women, who were ages 20-63 years, diagnosed between 1996 and 2011 and by 2016 had all developed relapse, were identified in Swedish registers and were followed from two years before to five years after their primary diagnosis, while they were relapse-free. Annual prevalence of SA and DP was calculated. Logistic regression was used to estimate adjusted odds ratios (AOR) for long-term SA (>30 days) at one (y1) and three (y3) years post-diagnosis. RESULTS Prevalence of long-term SA was 68.1% in y1 and 16.3% in y5. Prevalence of DP progressively increased from 16.3% in y1 to 29.0% in y5. Predictors of long-term SA included age <50 years (y1:AOR = 1.79 [1.39-2.29]), TNM stage III (y1:AOR = 1.54 [1.03-2.31]; y3:AOR = 2.21 [1.32-3.72]), metastasis (y1:AOR = 1.64 [1.26-2.12]; y3:AOR = 1.51 [1.05-2.18]), comorbidity (y1:AOR = 2.41 [1.55-3.76]; y3 AOR = 4.62 [2.49-8.57]) and any combination of radiotherapy, chemotherapy and hormonal therapy (y1:AOR = 2.05-5.71). CONCLUSION Among BC women who later developed relapse, those who had higher stages of BC, had comorbidity and received neoadjuvant and/or adjuvant therapy were at significantly higher risk of needing long-term SA after their diagnosis.

Paclitaxel antitumor effect improvement in lung cancer and prevention of the painful neuropathy using large pegylated cationic liposomes. Biomed Pharmacother 2021; 133:111059. [PMID: 33378963 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2020.111059] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2020] [Revised: 11/18/2020] [Accepted: 11/20/2020] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Paclitaxel (PTX), a drug widely used in lung cancer, has serious limitations including the development of peripheral neurotoxicity, which may lead to treatment discontinuation and therapy failure. The transport of PTX in large cationic liposomes could avoid this undesirable effect, improving the patient's prognosis. PTX was encapsulated in cationic liposomes with two different sizes, MLV (180-200 nm) and SUV (80-100 nm). In both cases, excellent biocompatibility and improved internalization and antitumor effect of PTX were observed in human and mice lung cancer cells in culture, multicellular spheroids and cancer stem cells (CSCs). In addition, both MLV and SUV with a polyethylene glycol (PEG) shell, induced a greater tumor volume reduction than PTX (56.4 % and 57.1 % vs. 36.7 %, respectively) in mice. Interestingly, MLV-PEG-PTX did not induce either mechanical or heat hypersensitivity whereas SUV-PEG-PTX produced a similar response to free PTX. Analysis of PTX distribution showed a very low concentration of the drug in the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) with MLV-PEG-PTX, but not with SUV-PEG-PTX or free PTX. These results support the hypothesis that PTX induces peripheral neuropathy by penetrating the endothelial fenestrations of the DRG (80-100 nm, measured in mice). In conclusion, our larger liposomes (MLV-PEG-PTX) not only showed biocompatibility, antitumor activity against CSCs, and in vitro and in vivo antitumor effect that improved PTX free activity, but also protected from PTX-induced painful peripheral neuropathy. These advantages could be used as a new strategy of lung cancer chemotherapy to increase the PTX activity and reduce its side effects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy (TIPN) is a dose-limiting adverse effect. Ganglioside-monosialic acid (GM1) functions as a neuroprotective factor. We assessed the effects of GM1 on the prevention of TIPN in breast cancer patients. METHODS We conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial including 206 patients with early-stage breast cancer planning to receive taxane-based adjuvant chemotherapy with a follow-up of more than 1 year. Subjects were randomly assigned to receive GM1 (80 mg, day -1 to day 2) or placebo. The primary endpoint was the Functional Assessment of Cancer Treatment Neurotoxicity subscale score after four cycles of chemotherapy. Secondary endpoints included neurotoxicity evaluated by National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 4.0 and the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group neuropathy scale. All statistical tests were two-sided. RESULTS In 183 evaluable patients, the GM1 group reported better mean Functional Assessment of Cancer Treatment Neurotoxicity subscale scores than patients in the placebo group after four cycles of chemotherapy (43.27, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 43.05 to 43.49 vs 34.34, 95% CI = 33.78 to 34.89; mean difference = 8.96, 95% CI = 8.38 to 9.54, P < .001). Grade 1 or higher peripheral neurotoxicity in Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v4.0 scale was statistically significantly lower in the GM1 group (14.3% vs 100.0%, P < .001). Additionally, the GM1 group had a statistically significantly lower incidence of grade 1 or higher neurotoxicity assessed by Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group neuropathy scale sensory neuropathy (26.4% vs 97.8%, P < .001) and motor neuropathy subscales (20.9% vs 81.5%, P < .001). CONCLUSIONS The treatment with GM1 resulted in a reduction in the severity and incidence of TIPN after four cycles of taxane-containing chemotherapy in patients with breast cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Breast cancer-related lymphedema affects 700,000 breast cancer survivors in the United States. Although taxane-based chemotherapy regimens are commonly used in the treatment of breast cancer, the impact of taxanes on the lymphatic system remains poorly understood. This study aims to examine the influence of taxane-based chemotherapy on lymphatic function in breast cancer patients. METHODS A retrospective review of a prospectively-maintained database was performed. Consecutive patients with node positive breast cancer who underwent preoperative indocyanine green (ICG) lymphangiograms were identified. Information including patient demographics, baseline measurements, cancer characteristics, and treatment information were retrieved. Preoperative ICG lymphangiography videos were analyzed and lymphatic contractility was quantified for each subject. Multiple regions of interest were selected on each lymphatic channel and signal intensity was recorded for 3 minutes to generate contractility curves. Each lymphatic contraction was identified using a novel, systematic, and algorithmic approach. RESULTS Twenty-nine consecutive patients with unilateral node-positive breast cancer were included for analysis. Average patient age was 54.5 (13) years and mean BMI was 26.8 kg/m (4). The mean lymphatic contractility of patients who received taxane-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy was 0.7 contractions/minute (c/m) (n = 19) compared to 1.1 c/m in those who received no neoadjuvant therapy (n = 10), (P = 0.11). In subgroup analysis, patients who reported taxane induced neuropathy demonstrated significantly lower lymphatic contractility values than those who were asymptomatic or did not receive any chemotherapy (P = 0.018). CONCLUSIONS In this study, we used a novel method for quantifying and evaluating lymphatic contractility rates in routine ICG lymphangiograms. Diminished lymphatic contractility was noted in patients who received taxane-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy compared with those who did not. Taxane-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy may adversely affect the lymphatic system in the breast cancer population. A larger patient cohort with longer follow-up time is needed to validate this finding and evaluate any potential association with breast cancer-related lymphedema development.

Abstract
Background Docetaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy (PN) is typically manifested as sensory and motor neuropathy. This study aimed to investigate the incidence, duration, and risk factors of sensory and motor PN and their impact on health-related quality of life (HRQOL) among breast cancer (BC) patients during the first year since starting docetaxel-based chemotherapy. Methods We reported a secondary analysis of longitudinal data on docetaxel-induced PN and HRQOL among 127 BC patients. Results Cumulative incidence rates of motor and sensory PN were 31.5 and 21.3%, while the median durations of motor and sensory PN were 6 and 13 weeks. A consistently significant risk factor for both PNs was a cumulative docetaxel dose of >300 mg/m2. A significant interaction between sensory PN and time was found for physical and social functioning, while a significant motor PN and time interaction effect was identified for physical functioning only. Conclusions Motor PN was more common than sensory PN in BC patients treated with docetaxel. Both types of PN had a significant impact on physical functioning.

Abstract
Background The major dose-limiting toxicity of paclitaxel, one of the most commonly used
drugs to treat breast cancer, is peripheral neuropathy (paclitaxel-induced
peripheral neuropathy). Paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy, which
persists into survivorship, has a negative impact on patient’s mood,
functional status, and quality of life. Currently, no interventions are
available to treat paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy. A critical
barrier to the development of efficacious interventions is the lack of
understanding of the mechanisms that underlie paclitaxel-induced peripheral
neuropathy. While data from preclinical studies suggest that disrupting
cytoskeleton- and axon morphology-related processes are a potential
mechanism for paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy, clinical evidence is
limited. The purpose of this study in breast cancer survivors was to
evaluate whether differential gene expression and co-expression patterns in
these pathways are associated with paclitaxel-induced peripheral
neuropathy. Methods Signaling pathways and gene co-expression modules associated with
cytoskeleton and axon morphology were identified between survivors who
received paclitaxel and did (n = 25) or did not (n = 25) develop
paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy. Results Pathway impact analysis identified four significantly perturbed cytoskeleton-
and axon morphology-related signaling pathways. Weighted gene co-expression
network analysis identified three co-expression modules. One module was
associated with paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy group membership.
Functional analysis found that this module was associated with four
signaling pathways and two ontology annotations related to cytoskeleton and
axon morphology. Conclusions This study, which is the first to apply systems biology approaches using
circulating whole blood RNA-seq data in a sample of breast cancer survivors
with and without chronic paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy, provides
molecular evidence that cytoskeleton- and axon morphology-related mechanisms
identified in preclinical models of various types of neuropathic pain
including chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy are found in breast
cancer survivors and suggests pathways and a module of genes for validation
and as potential therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Members of the solute carrier (SLC) family of transporters are responsible for the cellular influx of a broad range of endogenous compounds and xenobiotics. These proteins are highly expressed in the gastrointestinal tract and eliminating organs such as the liver and kidney, and are considered to be of particular importance in governing drug absorption and elimination. Many of the same transporters are also expressed in a wide variety of organs targeted by clinically important anticancer drugs, directly affect cellular sensitivity to these agents, and indirectly influence treatment-related side effects. Furthermore, targeted intervention strategies involving the use of transport inhibitors have been recently developed, and have provided promising lead candidates for combinatorial therapies associated with decreased toxicity. Gaining a better understanding of the complex interplay between transporter-mediated on-target and off-target drug disposition will help guide the further development of these novel treatment strategies to prevent drug accumulation in toxicity-associated organs, and improve the safety of currently available treatment modalities. In this report, we provide an update on this rapidly emerging field with particular emphasis on anticancer drugs belonging to the classes of taxanes, platinum derivatives, nucleoside analogs, and anthracyclines.

Abstract
Chronic pain is a debilitating condition that affects roughly a third to a half of the world's population. Despite its substantial effect on society, treatment for chronic pain is modest, at best, notwithstanding its side effects. Hence, novel therapeutics are direly needed. Emerging evidence suggests that calcium plays an integral role in mediating neuronal plasticity that underlies sensitization observed in chronic pain states. The endoplasmic reticulum and the mitochondria are the largest calcium repositories in a cell. Here, we review how stressors, like accumulation of misfolded proteins and oxidative stress, influence endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria function and contribute to chronic pain. We further examine the shuttling of calcium across the mitochondrial-associated membrane as a mechanism of cross-talk between the endoplasmic reticulum and the mitochondria. In addition, we discuss how endoplasmic reticulum stress, mitochondrial impairment, and calcium dyshomeostasis are implicated in various models of neuropathic pain. We propose a novel framework of endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondria signaling in mediating pain hypersensitivity. These observations require further investigation in order to develop novel therapies for chronic pain.

Neuroscience 2019; 426:168-178. [PMID: 31846751 DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroscience.2019.11.031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2019] [Revised: 09/27/2019] [Accepted: 11/20/2019] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
Paclitaxel (PTX) is one of the most commonly used chemotherapeutic agents for various cancer diseases. Despite its advantages, PTX also causes behavioral deficits related to nervous-system dysfunction, such as neuropathic pain, depression, anxiety, and cognitive impairments. The prefrontal cortex (PFC) is one of the areas that is susceptible to adverse effects of chemotherapeutic agents. Therefore, the present study was designed to examine sex-biased behavioral deficits and whole-transcriptome changes in gene expression in the PFC of mice treated with vehicle or PTX. In this study, PTX (4 mg/kg) was injected intraperitoneally four times in mice every other day. Three weeks later, both PTX-treated male and female mice developed mechanical pain hypersensitivities, as indicated by increased paw withdrawal responses to 0.16-g von Frey filaments. Additionally, PTX-treated mice exhibited depression-like symptoms, as they exhibited increased immobility times in the forced swim test. PTX also induced cognitive impairment, as demonstrated via results of a novel object recognition (NOR) test and anxiety-like behavior in an elevated plus-maze test in male mice, but not in female mice. RNA sequencing and in-depth gene expression analysis of the PFC in paired vehicle and PTX-treated mice showed that PTX induced 1755 differentially expressed genes in the PFCs of male and female mice. Quantitative real-time RT-PCR verified that some gene expressions in the medial PFC (mPFC) were related to neurotransmission. In conclusion, this study identified a sex-biased effect of PTX on PFC function and gene expression, which provides a foundation for future studies to explore the precise mechanisms of PTX-induced behavioral deficits.

Effect of Exercise on Taxane Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy in Women With Breast Cancer: A Randomized Controlled Trial. Clin Breast Cancer 2019; 19:411-422. [PMID: 31601479 DOI: 10.1016/j.clbc.2019.05.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 40] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2019] [Revised: 05/10/2019] [Accepted: 05/24/2019] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a dose-limiting adverse effect of taxanes. We sought to evaluate the effect of exercise on taxane CIPN in women with breast cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS Women (n = 27) were randomized to immediate exercise (IE, during taxane chemotherapy) or delayed exercise (DE, after chemotherapy). Supervised aerobic, resistance, and balance training was offered 3 days a week for 8-12 weeks. CIPN symptoms and quality of life were assessed using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ) C30 and CIPN20 (scored from 0 to 100). The percentage of participants reporting moderate to severe sensory symptoms ('3/4' or '4/4' for CIPN20 sensory items) was also evaluated, along with clinical sensory testing at the lower limb (vibration sense and pinprick). Taxane treatment adherence, including relative dose intensity, was extracted from patient medical records. Assessments occurred at: baseline (before taxane chemotherapy), pre-cycle 4 (before the final taxane cycle), the end of chemotherapy, and follow-up (10-15 weeks after chemotherapy). RESULTS No differences in the EORTC QLQ CIPN20 symptom scores were detected between groups at any time point. At pre-cycle 4, there was a significant difference between groups in patient-reported moderate to severe numbness in the toes or feet (IE: n = 1, 9%, DE: n = 7, 50%, P = .04) and impaired vibration sense in the feet (IE: n = 2, 18%, DE: n = 10, 83%, P < .01). Overall global health status/quality of life was higher in IE compared to DE at the end of chemotherapy (P = .05), yet both groups had worse CIPN20 sensory (Δ24.3 ± 4.6, P < .01) and motor symptom scores (Δ10.5 ± 1.9, P < .01) relative to baseline. By the end of chemotherapy, no differences between groups were found for moderate to severe numbness in the toes or feet (P = 1.0) or impaired vibration sense in the feet (P = .71). More IE participants received ≥ 85% relative dose intensity (IE: n = 12, 100%, DE: n = 10, 67%, P < .05). CONCLUSION Exercise may attenuate CIPN over the course of taxane chemotherapy and possibly improve taxane adherence in women with breast cancer. These findings, as well as whether exercise can attenuate CIPN by the end of taxane chemotherapy, should be confirmed in larger trials.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common and dose-limiting toxicity, negatively affecting both quality of life and disease outcomes. To date, there is no proven preventative strategy for CIPN. Although multiple randomized trials have evaluated a variety of pharmacologic interventions for the treatment of CIPN, only duloxetine has shown clear efficacy in a phase III study. The National Cancer Institute's Symptom Management and Health-Related Quality of Life Steering Committee has identified CIPN as a priority for translational research in cancer care. Promising advances in preclinical research have identified several novel preventative and therapeutic targets, which have the potential to transform the care of patients with this debilitating neurotoxicity. Here, we provide an overarching view of emerging strategies and therapeutic targets that are currently being evaluated in CIPN.

Suspected Adverse Drug Reactions Related to Breast Cancer Chemotherapy: Disproportionality Analysis of the Brazilian Spontaneous Reporting System. Front Pharmacol 2019; 10:498.

Abstract
Spontaneous reporting systems may generate a large volume of information in real world conditions with a relatively low cost. Disproportionality measures are useful to indicate and quantify unexpected safety issues associated with a given drug-event pair (signals of disproportionality), based upon differences compared to the background reporting frequency. This cross-sectional study (2008 to 2013) aimed to analyse the feasibility of detecting such signals in the Brazilian Pharmacovigilance Database comprising suspected adverse drug reactions related to the use of doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, carboplatin, trastuzumab, docetaxel, and paclitaxel for breast cancer chemotherapy. We first accessed overall database features (patient information and suspected adverse drug reactions) and further conducted a disproportionality analysis based on Reporting Odds Ratios with a confidence interval of 95% in order to identify possible signals of disproportionate reporting, only among serious suspected adverse drug reactions. Of all data reports of adverse reactions (n = 2603), 83% were classified as serious, with the highest prevalence with docetaxel (78.1%). The final analysis was performed using 1,309 reports with 3,139 drug-reaction pairs. The following signals of disproportionate reporting, some rare or not mentioned on labels, were observed: tachypnea with docetaxel; bronchospasm, syncope, cyanosis, and anaphylactic reaction with paclitaxel; and anaphylactic shock with trastuzumab. Structured management of spontaneous adverse drug reaction reporting is essential for monitoring the safe use of drugs and detecting early safety signals. Disproportionality signal analysis represents a viable and applicable strategy for oncology signal screening in the Brazilian Pharmacovigilance Database.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is one of the most frequent side effects caused by antineoplastic agents, with a prevalence from 19% to over 85%. Clinically, CIPN is a mostly sensory neuropathy that may be accompanied by motor and autonomic changes of varying intensity and duration. Due to its high prevalence among cancer patients, CIPN constitutes a major problem for both cancer patients and survivors as well as for their health care providers, especially because, at the moment, there is no single effective method of preventing CIPN; moreover, the possibilities of treating this syndrome are very limited. There are six main substance groups that cause damage to peripheral sensory, motor and autonomic neurons, which result in the development of CIPN: platinum-based antineoplastic agents, vinca alkaloids, epothilones (ixabepilone), taxanes, proteasome inhibitors (bortezomib) and immunomodulatory drugs (thalidomide). Among them, the most neurotoxic are platinum-based agents, taxanes, ixabepilone and thalidomide; other less neurotoxic but also commonly used drugs are bortezomib and vinca alkaloids. This paper reviews the clinical picture of CIPN and the neurotoxicity mechanisms of the most common antineoplastic agents. A better understanding of the risk factors and underlying mechanisms of CIPN is needed to develop effective preventive and therapeutic strategies.

Indomethacin plus minocycline coadministration relieves chemotherapy and antiretroviral drug-induced neuropathic pain in a cannabinoid receptors-dependent manner. J Pharmacol Sci 2019; 139:325-332.

Abstract
Neuropathic pain sometimes occurs during chemotherapy with paclitaxel or HIV/AIDS antiretroviral therapy with nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs). We previously reported that coadministration of indomethacin plus minocycline (IPM) was antihyperalgesic in a cannabinoid type 1 (CB1) receptor-dependent manner in a mouse model of paclitaxel-induced neuropathic pain. We evaluated if IPM combination has antihyperalgesic and antiallodynic activities in animal models of paclitaxel or NRTI (ddC, zalcitabine)-induced neuropathic pain, and whether antagonists of CB1, CB2 receptors or G protein-coupled receptor 55 (GPR55) can inhibit these activities of IPM. IPM produced antihyperalgesic and antiallodynic effects against paclitaxel and ddC-induced thermal hyperalgesia and mechanical allodynia. WIN 55,212-2, a cannabinoid receptor agonist, also had antihyperalgesic activity. The antihyperalgesic and antiallodynic activities of IPM were antagonized by a CB1 receptor antagonist AM251 and a CB2 receptor antagonist AM630, but not a GPR55 antagonist ML193. IPM had no effects on the mean time spent on the rotarod, whereas WIN 55,212-2 reduced it in a dose-dependent manner. These results show that IPM at a fixed ratio produces antihyperalgesic and antiallodynic effects in mice models of both paclitaxel and NRTI-induced neuropathic pain which is dependent on both CB1 and CB2 receptors, without causing the typical cannabinoid receptor agonist-induced motor impairment.

Abstract
Background and aims Breast cancer is the most prevalent adult cancer worldwide. A broader use of screening for early detection and adjuvant systemic therapy with chemotherapy has resulted in improved survival rates. Taxane-containing chemotherapy is one of the cornerstones of the treatment. However, taxane-containing chemotherapy may result in acute chemotherapy-induced nociceptive and neuropathic pain. Since this pain may be an additional burden for the patient both during and after taxane chemotherapy, it is important to rapidly discover and treat it. There is yet no gold standard for assessing taxane-induced pain. In the clinic, applying multiple methods for collecting information on pain may better describe the patients' pain experiences. The aim was to document the pain during and after taxane through the contribution of different methods for collecting information on taxane-induced pain. Fifty-three women scheduled for adjuvant sequential chemotherapy at doses of ≥75 mg/m2 of docetaxel and epirubicin were enrolled in the study. Methods Prospective pain assessments were done on a visual analog scale (VAS) before and during each cycle of treatment for about 5 months, and using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire's (EORTC-QLQ-C30) two pain questions at baseline, 3 months, and 12 months. Participants scoring pain on the VAS >30 and undergoing an interview also colored their pain on a body image during treatment and at 12 months. Results Surprisingly widespread, intense pain was detected using a multi-method approach. The colored body image showed pain being perceived on 51% of the body surface area during treatment, and on 18% 12 months after inclusion. In general, the pain started and peaked in intensity after the first cycle of taxane. After Cycle 3, most women reported an increase in pain on the VAS. Some women continued to report some pain even during the epirubicin cycles. The VAS scores dropped after the last chemotherapy cycle, but not to the baseline level. At baseline, 3 months and 12 months after inclusion, the women who estimated VAS >30 reported higher levels of pain on the pain questions of the EORTC-QLQ-C30. Conclusions This study contributes information on how different pain assessment tools offer different information in the assessment of pain. The colored body image brings another dimension to pain diagnostics, providing additional information on the involved body areas and the pain intensities as experienced by the women. A multi-method approach to assessing pain offers many advantages. The timing of the assessment is important to properly assess pain. Implications Pain relief needs to be included in the chemotherapy treatment, with individual assessment and treatment of pain, in the same way as is done in chemotherapy-triggered nausea. There is a time window whereby the risk of pain development is at its highest within 24-48 h after receiving taxane chemotherapy. Proper attention to pain evaluation and treatment should be in focus during this time window.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is common with specific semiological characteristics. When CIPN appears, there are many difficulties in guaranteeing sustained treatment, especially with optimal protocol. Moreover, CIPN have bad repercussions on quality of life after cancer disease. In this article, we have achieved a current state of CIPN and try to report details about semiological characteristics and topography. We have also produced some epidemiological data. Nonetheless, we have not voluntarily introduced treatment because it will be the topic of further work.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this observational study was to investigate correlations between long-term chemotherapy-induced peripheral neurotoxicity (CIPN) and quality of life (physical well-being, social well-being, emotional well-being, and functional well-being [FWB]) among survivors of gynecologic cancer (GC). METHODS We aimed to assess the correlation of quality of life and long-term CIPN with the temporal change in recurrence-free GC survival. Questionnaire responses and clinical data of 259 GC survivors were collected and assessed according to treatment received. The χ test was used to determine the significance of correlations. RESULTS Of 165 evaluable patients treated by chemotherapy, 36 patients (21.8%) developed CIPN of Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events grade 1 or higher during the study. Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neurotoxicity had significantly improved over time in the domain of FWB at 61 months or more after the end of chemotherapy (posttreatment 4) among GC survivors (P = 0.003). Furthermore, CIPN treated by more than 6 courses of the paclitaxel and carboplatin regimen among GC survivors showed significant improvement over time in the emotional well-being domain at 25 to 60 months and 61 months or more after the end of chemotherapy (posttreatments 3 and 4) (P = 0.037 and P = 0.023) and in FWB at posttreatment 4 (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Emotional and functional domains of CIPN improved over time among GC survivors treated by more than 6 courses of the paclitaxel and carboplatin regimen. Based on these results, further research is required to identify additional preventative or curative approaches.
