Abstract
ABSTRACT Developments in human cellular reprogramming now allow for the generation of human neurons for in vitro disease modelling. This technique has since been used for chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) research, resulting in the description of numerous CIPN models constructed from human neurons. This systematic review provides a critical analysis of available models and their methodological considerations (ie, used cell type and source, CIPN induction strategy, and validation method) for prospective researchers aiming to incorporate human in vitro models of CIPN in their research. The search strategy was developed with assistance from a clinical librarian and conducted in MEDLINE (PubMed) and Embase (Ovid) on September 26, 2023. Twenty-six peer-reviewed experimental studies presenting original data about human reprogrammed nonmotor neuron cell culture systems and relevant market available chemotherapeutics drugs were included. Virtually, all recent reports modeled CIPN using nociceptive dorsal root ganglion neurons. Drugs known to cause the highest incidence of CIPN were most used. Furthermore, treatment effects were almost exclusively validated by the acute effects of chemotherapeutics on neurite dynamics and cytotoxicity parameters, enabling the extrapolation of the half-maximal inhibitory concentration for the 4 most used chemotherapeutics. Overall, substantial heterogeneity was observed in the way studies applied chemotherapy and reported their findings. We therefore propose 6 suggestions to improve the clinical relevance and appropriateness of human cellular reprogramming-derived CIPN models.

Abstract
Persistent taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy (TIPN) is highly prevalent among early-stage breast cancer survivors (ESBCS) and has detrimental effect on quality of life. We leveraged logistic regression models to develop and validate polygenic prediction models to estimate the risk of persistent PN symptoms in a training cohort and validation cohort taking clinical risk factors into account. Based on 337 whole-exome sequenced ESBCS two of five prediction models for individual PN symptoms obtained AUC results above 60% when validated. Using the model for numbness in feet (35 SNVs) in the test cohort, 73% survivors were correctly predicted. For tingling in feet (55 SNVs) 70% were correctly predicted. Both models included SNVs from the ADAMTS20, APT6V0A2, CCDC88C, CYP2C8, EPHA5, NR1H3, PSKH2/APTV0D2, and SCN10A genes. For cramps in feet, difficulty climbing stairs and difficulty opening a jar the validation was unsuccessful. Polygenic prediction models including clinical risk factors can estimate the risk of persistent taxane-induced numbness in feet and tingling in feet in ESBCS.

Abstract
The causes of variation in toxicity to the same treatment regimen among seemingly similar patients remain largely unknown. There was tremendous optimism that the patient's germline genome would be strongly predictive of treatment-related toxicity and could be used to personalize treatment and improve therapeutic outcomes. However, there has been limited success in discovering robust pharmacogenetic predictors of treatment-related toxicity and even less progress in translating the few validated predictors into clinical practice. It is apparent that identification of toxicity predictors that can be used to predict and prevent treatment-related toxicity will require thinking beyond germline genomics. To that end, we propose an integrated biomarker discovery approach that recognizes that a patient's toxicity risk is determined by the cumulative effects of a broad range of "omic" and non-omic factors. This commentary describes the limited success in discovering and translating clinical and pharmacogenetic toxicity predictors into clinical practice. We illustrate the evolution of cancer toxicity biomarker discovery and translation through studies of taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy, which is one of the most common and debilitating side effects of cancer treatment. We then discuss the opportunities for discovering non-genomic (e.g., metabolomic, lipidomic, transcriptomic, proteomic, microbiomic, medical, behavioral, environmental) and integrated biomarkers that may be more strongly predictive of toxicity risk and the potential challenges with translating integrated biomarkers into clinical practice. This integrated biomarker discovery approach may circumvent some of the major limitations in toxicity biomarker science and move precision oncology treatment forward so that patients receive maximum treatment benefit with minimal toxicity.

Abstract
PURPOSE Chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a debilitating condition that is a direct consequence of receiving cancer treatment. The molecular aetiology of CIPN is not well understood, and it is theorised that there may be a genetic component. Genetic polymorphisms in Glutathione-S Transferase (GST) genes, including GSTT1, GSTM1 and GSTP1, encode for enzymes known to metabolise drugs used in chemotherapy, and have been theorised to be associated with CIPN. This study aimed to investigate four markers in these genes for an association in a mixed cancer cohort in relation to CIPN (n = 172). METHODS CIPN was measured using the neuropathy item from the Patient Reported Outcome Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Event (PRO-CTCAE) assessment. Genotyping for all samples was performed using PCR for the GSTM1 and GSTT1 null variants and restriction fragment length polymorphisms for the GSTP1 and GSTM1 polymorphisms. RESULTS No associations were found for the GST gene markers in relation to CIPN within our study, or CIPN severity. Longitudinal stratification of the CIPN phenotypes to examine links for neuropathy, identified nominally significant protective associations with the GSTM* null allele (p-value = 0.038, OR = 0.55) and the presence of pain at month 2 of treatment, as well as a risk factor for pain related month 2 of treatment for individuals with the GSTT1*null allele (p-value = 0.030, OR = 1.64). Higher severity of pain in patients with CIPN persisted at each time-point compared to those without CIPN. CONCLUSION No significant results for an association between CIPN with polymorphisms in GSTM1, GSTT1 and GSTP1 were identified. However, associations for the GSTM1¬-null and GSTT1-null polymorphisms with pain at month 2 following chemotherapy were identified.

Front Pharmacol 2023; 14:1178421.

Abstract
Background: Taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy (TIPN) is an important cause of premature treatment cessation and dose-limitation in cancer therapy. It also reduces quality of life and survivorship in affected patients. Genetic polymorphisms in the CYP3A family have been investigated but the findings have been inconsistent and contradictory. Methods: A systematic review identified 12 pharmacogenetic studies investigating genetic variation in CYP3A4*22 and CYP3A5*3 and TIPN. In our candidate gene study, 288 eligible participants (211 taxane participants receiving docetaxel or paclitaxel, and 77 control participants receiving oxaliplatin) were successfully genotyped for CYP3A4*22 and CYP3A5*3. Genotyping data was transformed into a combined CYP3A metaboliser phenotype: Poor metabolisers, intermediate metabolisers and extensive metabolisers. Individual genotypes and combined CYP3A metaboliser phenotypes were assessed in relation to neurotoxicity, including by meta-analysis where possible. Results: In the systematic review, no significant association was found between CYP3A5*3 and TIPN in seven studies, with one study reporting a protective association. For CYP3A4*22, one study has reported an association with TIPN, while four other studies failed to show an association. Evaluation of our patient cohort showed that paclitaxel was found to be more neurotoxic than docetaxel (p < 0.001). Diabetes was also significantly associated with the development of TIPN. The candidate gene analysis showed no significant association between either SNP (CYP3A5*3 and CYP3A4*22) and the development of TIPN overall, or severe TIPN. Meta-analysis showed no association between these two variants and TIPN. Transformed into combined CYP3A metaboliser phenotypes, 30 taxane recipients were poor metabolisers, 159 were intermediate metabolisers, and 22 were extensive metabolisers. No significant association was observed between metaboliser status and case-control status. Summary: We have shown that the risk of peripheral neuropathy during taxane chemotherapy is greater in patients who have diabetes. CYP3A genotype or phenotype was not identified as a risk factor in either the candidate gene analysis or the systematic review/meta-analysis, although we cannot exclude the possibility of a minor contribution, which would require a larger sample size.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Using GWAS data derived from a large collaborative trial (ECOG-5103), we identified a cluster of 267 SNPs which predicted CIPN in treatment-naive patients as reported in Part 1 of this study. To assess the functional and pathological implications of this set, we identified collective gene signatures were and evaluated the informational value of those signatures in defining CIPN's pathogenesis. METHODS In Part 1, we analyzed GWAS data derived from ECOG-5103, first identifying those SNPs that were most strongly associated with CIPN using Fisher's ratio. After identifying those SNPs which differentiated CIPN-positive from CIPN-negative phenotypes, we ranked them in order of their discriminatory power to produce a cluster of SNPs which provided the highest predictive accuracy using leave-one-out cross validation (LOOCV). An uncertainty analysis was included. Using the best predictive SNP cluster, we performed gene attribution for each SNP using NCBI Phenotype Genotype Integrator and then assessed functionality by applying GeneAnalytics, Gene Set Enrichment Analysis, and PCViz. RESULTS Using aggregate data derived from the GWAS, we identified a 267 SNP cluster which was associated with a CIPN+ phenotype with an accuracy of 96.1%. We could attribute 173 genes to the 267 SNP cluster. Six long intergenic non-protein coding genes were excluded. Ultimately, the functional analysis was based on 138 genes. Of the 17 pathways identified by Gene Analytics (GA) software, the irinotecan pharmacokinetic pathway had the highest score. Highly matching gene ontology attributions included flavone metabolic process, flavonoid glucuronidation, xenobiotic glucuronidation, nervous system development, UDP glycosyltransferase activity, retinoic acid binding, protein kinase C binding, and glucoronosyl transferase activity. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) GO terms identified neuron-associated genes as most significant (p = 5.45e-10). Consistent with the GA's output, flavone, and flavonoid associated terms, glucuronidation were noted as were GO terms associated with neurogenesis. CONCLUSION The application of functional analyses to phenotype-associated SNP clusters provides an independent validation step in assessing the clinical meaningfulness of GWAS-derived data. Functional analyses following gene attribution of a CIPN-predictive SNP cluster identified pathways, gene ontology terms, and a network which were consistent with a neuropathic phenotype.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common toxicity of taxanes for which there is no effective intervention. Genomic CIPN risk determination has yielded promising, but inconsistent results. The present study assessed the utility of a collective SNP cluster identified using novel analytics to describe taxane-associated CIPN risk. METHODS We analyzed GWAS data derived from ECOG-5103, first identifying SNPs that were most strongly associated with CIPN using Fisher's ratio (FR). We then ranked ordered those SNPs which discriminated CIPN-positive (CIPN +) from CIPN-negative phenotypes based on their discriminatory power and developed the cluster of SNPs which provided the highest predictive accuracy using leave-one-out cross-validation (LOOCV). RESULTS Using aggregated genotype data obtained from the previously reported ECOG-5103 clinical trial (in which two different arrays were used, HumanOmniExpress (727,227 SNPs) and HumanOmni1-Quad1 (1,131,857 SNPs)), we identified a 267 SNP cluster which was associated with a CIPN + phenotype with an accuracy of 96.1%. CONCLUSIONS A cluster of SNPs was identified which prospectively discriminated patients most likely to develop symptomatic CIPN following taxane exposure as part of a breast cancer chemotherapy regimen. Validation using an independent patient cohort should be performed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study investigated whether there are pharmacogenomic markers predictive of chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) as a result of taxane-based chemotherapy. METHODS Patients were enrolled from August 2020 to November 2020 in a prospective, case-control trial evaluating pharmacogenetic predictors of CIPN. All women were treated with at least 3 cycles of taxane-based chemotherapy for histologically confirmed gynecologic malignancies. Buccal saliva samples were used to test for 32 drug metabolism variations. All testing was performed by ⍺LPHA-GENOMIX laboratories. Fisher's Exact test was used to assess for event differences of categorical variables. RESULTS Of 102 enrolled patients, 58%, 28%, and 14% had ovarian, endometrial, or cervical cancers, respectively. The median age was 67, 72% were Caucasian and 25% were African American. 16% of patients were treated with 3-4 cycles, 57% received 5-7 cycles, and 27% received 8 or more cycles of chemotherapy that included paclitaxel. Grade 2 CIPN was experienced by 51 patients. There was no difference in age, race, disease site, or number of chemotherapy cycles (p > 0.05) between those who did or did not develop CIPN. CYP2D6 genotype (p = 0.009) and CYP3A5 genotype (p = 0.023) had different frequencies among those with and without CIPN. Patients classified as having poor or intermediate function of CYP2D6 had increased risk of CIPN (OR 1.63, 95% CI 1.04-2.57, p = 0.026). There was no difference in CYP2D6 phenotype by race (p = 0.29). No patients with normal function of CYP3A5 developed CIPN. There were no Caucasians with normal function of CYP3A5, but 28% of African Americans had normal CYP3A5 function (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Pharmacogenomics appear associated with the development of CIPN and may be able to help personalize treatment decision making.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a debilitating side effect of many common anti-cancer agents that can lead to dose reduction or treatment discontinuation, which decrease chemotherapy efficacy. Long-term CIPN can interfere with activities of daily living and diminish the quality of life. The mechanism of CIPN is not yet fully understood, and biomarkers are needed to identify patients at high risk and potential treatment targets. Metabolomics can capture the complex behavioral and pathophysiological processes involved in CIPN. This chapter is to review the CIPN metabolomics studies to find metabolic pathways potentially involved in CIPN. These potential CIPN metabolites are then investigated to determine whether there is evidence from studies of other neuropathy etiologies such as diabetic neuropathy and Leber hereditary optic neuropathy to support the importance of these pathways in peripheral neuropathy. Six potential biomarkers and their putative mechanisms in peripheral neuropathy were reviewed. Among these biomarkers, histidine and phenylalanine have clear roles in neurotransmission or neuroinflammation in peripheral neuropathy. Further research is needed to discover and validate CIPN metabolomics biomarkers in large clinical studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetic risk factors for chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), a major dose-limiting side-effect of paclitaxel, are not well understood. METHODS We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in 183 paclitaxel-treated patients to identify genetic loci associated with CIPN assessed via comprehensive neuropathy phenotyping tools (patient-reported, clinical and neurological grading scales). Bioinformatic analyses including pathway enrichment and polygenic risk score analysis were used to identify mechanistic pathways of interest. RESULTS In total, 77% of the cohort were classified with CIPN (n = 139), with moderate/severe neuropathy in 36%. GWAS was undertaken separately for the three measures of CIPN. GWAS of patient-reported CIPN identified 4 chromosomal regions that exceeded genome-wide significance (rs9846958, chromosome 3; rs117158921, chromosome 18; rs4560447, chromosome 4; rs200091415, chromosome 10). rs4560447 is located within a protein-coding gene, LIMCH1, associated with actin and neural development and expressed in the dorsal root ganglia (DRG). There were additional risk loci that exceeded the statistical threshold for suggestive genome-wide association (P < 1 × 10-5) for all measures. A polygenic risk score calculated from the top 46 ranked SNPs was highly correlated with patient-reported CIPN (r2 = 0.53; P = 1.54 × 10-35). Overlap analysis was performed to identify 3338 genes which were in common between the patient-reported CIPN, neurological grading scale and clinical grading scale GWAS. The common gene set was subsequently analysed for enrichment of gene ontology (GO) and Reactome pathways, identifying a number of pathways, including the axon development pathway (GO:0061564; P = 1.78 × 10-6) and neuronal system (R-HSA-112316; adjusted P = 3.33 × 10-7). CONCLUSIONS Our findings highlight the potential role of axon development and regeneration pathways in paclitaxel-induced CIPN.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the most frequent cause of cancer death in low- and middle-income countries, in particular among sub-Saharan African women, where response to available anticancer treatment therapy is often limited by the recurrent breast tumours and metastasis, ultimately resulting in decreased overall survival rate. This can also be attributed to African genomes that contain more variation than those from other parts of the world. The purpose of this review is to summarize published evidence on pharmacogenetic and pharmacokinetic aspects related to specific available treatments and the known genetic variabilities associated with metabolism and/or transport of breast cancer drugs, and treatment outcomes when possible. The emphasis is on the African genetic variation and focuses on the genes with the highest strength of evidence, with a close look on CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP3A4/5, CYP19A1, UGT1A4, UGT2B7, UGT2B15, SLC22A16, SLC38A7, FcγR, DPYD, ABCB1, and SULT1A1, which are the genes known to play major roles in the metabolism and/or elimination of the respective anti-breast cancer drugs given to the patients. The genetic variability of their metabolism could be associated with different metabolic phenotypes that may cause reduced patients' adherence because of toxicity or sub-therapeutic doses. Finally, this knowledge enhances possible personalized treatment approaches, with the possibility of improving survival outcomes in patients with breast cancer.

Basic Clin Pharmacol Toxicol 2022; 130 Suppl 1:60-74.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common dose-limiting toxicity that affects 30%-40% of patients undergoing cancer treatment. Although multiple mechanisms of chemotherapy-induced neurotoxicity have been described in preclinical models, these have not been translated into widely effective strategies for the prevention or treatment of CIPN. Predictive biomarkers to inform therapeutic approaches are also lacking. Recent studies have examined genetic risk factors associated with CIPN susceptibility. This review provides an overview of the clinical and pathologic features of CIPN and summarizes efforts to identify target pathways through genetic and functional studies. Structurally and mechanistically diverse chemotherapeutics are associated with CIPN; however, the current review is focused on microtubule-targeting agents since these are the focus of most pharmacogenetic association and functional studies of CIPN. Genome-wide pharmacogenetic association studies are useful tools to identify not only causative genes and genetic variants but also genetic networks implicated in drug response or toxicity and have been increasingly applied to investigations of CIPN. Induced pluripotent stem cell-derived models of human sensory neurons are especially useful to understand the mechanistic significance of genomic findings. Combined genetic and functional genomic efforts to understand CIPN hold great promise for developing therapeutic approaches for its prevention and treatment.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is widely recognized as a potentially severe toxicity that often leads to dose reduction or discontinuation of cancer treatment. Symptoms may persist despite discontinuation of chemotherapy and quality of life can be severely compromised. The clinical symptoms of CIPN, and the cellular and molecular targets involved in CIPN, are just as diverse as the wide variety of anticancer agents that cause peripheral neurotoxicity. There is an urgent need for extensive molecular and functional investigations aimed at understanding the mechanisms of CIPN. Furthermore, a reliable human cell culture system that recapitulates the diversity of neuronal modalities found in vivo and the pathophysiological changes that underlie CIPN would serve to advance the understanding of the pathogenesis of CIPN. The demonstration of experimental reproducibility in a human peripheral neuronal cell system will increase confidence that such an in vitro model is clinically useful, ultimately resulting in deeper exploration for the prevention and treatment of CIPN. Herein, we review current in vitro models with a focus on key characteristics and attributes desirable for an ideal human cell culture model relevant for CIPN investigations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify genetic variants associated with chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) symptoms among gynecologic cancer survivors and determine the variants' predictive power in addition to age and clinical factors at time of diagnosis. METHODS Participants of a prospective cohort study on gynecologic cancers provided a DNA saliva sample and reported CIPN symptoms (FACT/GOG-Ntx). Genotyping of 23 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) previously identified as related to platinum- or taxane-induced neuropathy was performed using iPLEX Gold method. Risk allele carrier frequencies of 19 SNPs that passed quality checks were compared between those with/without high CIPN symptoms using logistic regression, adjusting for age. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves using clinical risk factors (age, diabetes, BMI, Charlson Comorbidity Index, previous cancer diagnosis) with and without the identified SNPs were compared. RESULTS 107 individuals received platinum or taxane-based chemotherapy and provided sufficient DNA for analysis. Median age was 65.1 years; 39.6% had obesity and 8.4% diabetes; most had ovarian (58.9%) or uterine cancer (29.0%). Two SNPs were significantly associated with high CIPN symptomatology: rs3753753 in GPX7, OR = 2.55 (1.13, 5.72) and rs139887 in SOX10, 2.66 (1.18, 6.00). Including these two SNPs in a model with clinical characteristics led to an improved AUC for CIPN symptomatology (0.65 vs. 0.74, p = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS Genetic and clinical characteristics were predictive of higher CIPN symptomatology in gynecologic cancer survivors, and combining these factors resulted in superior predictive power compared with a model with clinical factors only. Prospective validation and assessment of clinical utility are warranted.

Abstract
Oxaliplatin (OHP)-induced peripheral neurotoxicity (OIPN) is a severe clinical problem and potentially permanent side effect of cancer treatment. For the management of OIPN, accurate diagnosis and understanding of significant risk factors including genetic vulnerability are essential to improve knowledge regarding the prevalence and incidence of OIPN as well as enhance strategies for the prevention and treatment of OIPN. The molecular mechanisms underlying OIPN are complex, with multi-targets and various cells causing neuropathy. Furthermore, mechanisms of OIPN can reinforce each other, and combination therapies may be required for effective management. However, despite intense investigation in preclinical and clinical studies, no preventive therapies have shown significant clinical efficacy, and the established treatment for painful OIPN is limited. Duloxetine is the only agent currently recommended by the American Society of Clinical Oncology. The present article summarizes the most recent advances in the field of studies on OIPN, the overview of the clinical syndrome, molecular basis, therapy development, and outlook of future drug candidates. Importantly, closer links between clinical pain management teams and oncology will advance the effectiveness of OIPN treatment, and the continued close collaboration between preclinical and clinical research will facilitate the development of novel prevention and treatments for OIPN.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neurotoxicity (CIPN) is a major dose-limiting side effect of many anti-cancer agents, including taxanes, platinums, vinca alkaloids, proteasome inhibitors, immunomodulatory drugs, and antibody-drug conjugates. The resultant symptoms often persist post treatment completion and continue to impact on long-term function and quality of life for cancer survivors. At present, dose reduction remains the only strategy to prevent severe neuropathy, often leading clinicians to the difficult decision of balancing maximal treatment exposure and minimal long-lasting side effects. This review examines the clinical presentations of CIPN with each class of neurotoxic treatment, describing signs, symptoms, and long-term outcomes. We provide an update on the proposed mechanisms of nerve damage and review current data on clinical and genetic risk factors contributing to CIPN development. We also examine recent areas of research in the treatment and prevention of CIPN, with specific focus on current clinical trials and consensus recommendations for CIPN management.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common side effect of typical chemotherapeutics among cancer survivors. Despite the recent progress, the effective prevention and treatment strategies for CIPN remain limited. Better understanding of the pathogenesis of CIPN may provide new niches for developing a new ideal therapeutic strategy. This review summarizes the current understanding of CIPN and current recommendations along with completed/active clinical trials and aims to foster translational research to improve the development of effective strategies for managing CIPN.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common, dose limiting, and long-lasting side effect of chemotherapy treatment. Unfortunately, no treatment has proven efficacious for this side effect. Rodent models play a crucial role in the discovery of new mechanisms underlying the initiation, progression, and recovery of CIPN and the potential discovery of new therapeutics. However, there is limited consistency in the dose, the sex, age, and genetic background of the animal used in these studies and the outcome measures used in evaluation of CIPN rely primarily on noxious and reflexive measures. The main objective of this study was to provide a comprehensive and systematic characterization of oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy in mice by using a battery of behavioral, sensory, electrophysiological, and morphometric measures in both sexes of the two widely used strains of mice, C57BL/6J and BALB/cJ. Mice received intraperitoneal injections of 3 or 30 mg/kg cumulative doses of oxaliplatin over the course of 2 weeks. Both doses induced long-term and time-dependent mechanical and cold hypersensitivity. Our results show that 30 mg/kg oxaliplatin reduced the locomotor activity in C57BL/6J mice, and C57BL/6J females showed anxiety-like behavior one-week post completion of treatment. In the same dose group, BALB/cJ males and females sustained a larger decrease in sucrose preference than either male or female C57BL/6J mice. Both strains failed to show significant changes in burrowing and nesting behaviors. Two clinically relevant assessments of changes to the peripheral nerve fibers, nerve conduction and intraepidermal nerve fiber density (IENFD) were evaluated. Only BALB/cJ females showed significant reduction in the nerve conduction amplitude 1 week after 30 mg/kg oxaliplatin regimen. Moreover, this dose of the chemo agent reduced the IENF density in both sexes and strains. Our findings suggest that mouse strain, sex, and assay type should be carefully considered when assessing the effects of oxaliplatin and potential therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To identify the association between diabetes mellitus (DM) and the risk of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) through a systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS An electronic literature search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, the Wanfang database, the VIP Journals database (CQVIP), the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) database, and the China Biology Medicine database (Sinomed) between January 2010 and January 2021. Articles were included if they investigated CIPN and DM. Stata 15.1 was used to analyze the data. RESULTS We examined 8923 cancer patients from 25 studies comprising 9 cohort studies and 16 case-control studies. Meta-analysis showed that there was a statistically significant positive correlation between DM and CIPN (odds ratio [OR] = 1.60, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.38-1.85, P < 0.001). Egger's test (P = 0.824) showed no evidence of publication bias. The positive associations did not significant differ by study type, study quality, evaluation instrument, and type of antineoplastic drug. Omission of any single study had little effect on the combined risk estimate. Little evidence of heterogeneity was observed. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis provides evidence of a significant positive association between DM and risk of CIPN. Furthermore, a more detailed evaluation is warranted for cancer patients with diabetes when they are treated with antineoplastic drugs that have the potential to cause peripheral neuropathy.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common and debilitating adverse event that can alter patient treatment options and halt candidate drug development. A case study is presented here describing the preclinical and clinical development of CC-90003, a small molecule extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)1/2 inhibitor investigated as an oncology therapy. In a Phase Ia clinical trial, CC-90003 elicited adverse drug-related neuropathy and neurotoxicity that contributed to discontinued development of CC-90003 for oncology therapy. Preclinical evaluation of CC-90003 in dogs revealed clinical signs and electrophysiological changes consistent with peripheral neuropathy that was reversible. Mice did not exhibit signs of neuropathy upon daily dosing with CC-90003, supporting that rodents generally poorly predict CIPN. We sought to investigate the mechanism of CC-90003-induced peripheral neuropathy using a phenotypic in vitro assay. Translating preclinical neuropathy findings to humans proves challenging as no robust in vitro models of CIPN exist. An approach was taken to examine the influence of CIPN-associated drugs on human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived peripheral neuron (hiPSC-PN) electrophysiology on multielectrode arrays (MEAs). The MEA assay with hiPSC-PNs was sensitive to CIPN-associated drugs cisplatin, sunitinib, colchicine, and importantly, to CC-90003 in concordance with clinical neuropathy incidence. Biochemical data together with in vitro MEA data for CC-90003 and 12 of its structural analogs, all having similar ERK inhibitory activity, revealed that CC-90003 disrupted in vitro neuronal electrophysiology likely via on-target ERK inhibition combined with off-target kinase inhibition and translocator protein inhibition. This approach could prove useful for assessing CIPN risk and interrogating mechanisms of drug-induced neuropathy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Acute neuropathic pain is a significant diagnostic challenge, and it is closely related to our understanding of both acute pain and neuropathic pain. Diagnostic criteria for acute neuropathic pain should reflect our mechanistic understanding and provide a framework for research on and treatment of these complex pain conditions. METHODS The Analgesic, Anesthetic, and Addiction Clinical Trial Translations, Innovations, Opportunities, and Networks (ACTTION) public-private partnership with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the American Pain Society (APS), and the American Academy of Pain Medicine (AAPM) collaborated to develop the ACTTION-APS-AAPM Pain Taxonomy (AAAPT) for acute pain. A working group of experts in research and clinical management of neuropathic pain was convened. Group members used literature review and expert opinion to develop diagnostic criteria for acute neuropathic pain, as well as three specific examples of acute neuropathic pain conditions, using the five dimensions of the AAAPT classification of acute pain. RESULTS AAAPT diagnostic criteria for acute neuropathic pain are presented. Application of these criteria to three specific conditions (pain related to herpes zoster, chemotherapy, and limb amputation) illustrates the spectrum of acute neuropathic pain and highlights unique features of each condition. CONCLUSIONS The proposed AAAPT diagnostic criteria for acute neuropathic pain can be applied to various acute neuropathic pain conditions. Both the general and condition-specific criteria may guide future research, assessment, and management of acute neuropathic pain.

Applicability of High-Frequency Ultrasound to the Early Diagnosis of Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2021; 2021:5529063.

Abstract
This study investigated the applicability of high-frequency ultrasound (HFU) to the early diagnosis of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). Patients with type 2 diabetes (N = 60) were divided into diabetic nonperipheral neuropathy and DPN groups (group A and group B, respectively; n = 30 each) based on electroneurophysiologic findings. Additionally, 30 nondiabetic patients were included as the healthy control group (group C). We calculated the cross-sectional area (CSA) of the median nerve (MN) of the right upper limb at 7 different sites (MN1–7) based on measured width (W) and thickness (T). Ultrasound imaging characteristics of the MN including internal echo, internal structure, boundary, epineurium, and blood flow were recorded. The 90 subjects (51 male and 39 female) had an average age of 56.09 ± 12.66 years. W, T, and CSA of the MN were increased in group A compared to group C (with significant differences at MN1, MN4, and MN7 (P < 0.05)) and in group B compared to group C (with significant differences at all 7 levels, especially MN6 and MN7 (P < 0.05)). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that CSA at the MN7 level had the highest diagnostic accuracy for DPN in group B, with a threshold value of 12.42 mm2. Ultrasound examination revealed that the MN had lost the internal sieve mesh structure and showed reduced echo, a partial blood flow signal, and thickened epineurium in patients with DPN; these findings were particularly obvious at MN6 and MN7, corresponding to the carpal tunnel. CSA was positively correlated with motor latency and F wave average latency and negatively correlated with motor conduction velocity, motor amplitude, and sensory conduction velocity in group B. Thus, HFU may be useful for the early diagnosis of DPN, which can improve clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common and potentially permanent adverse effect of chemotherapeutic agents including taxanes such as paclitaxel and platinum-based compounds such as oxaliplatin and carboplatin. Previous studies have suggested that genetics may impact the risk of CIPN. We conducted genome-wide association studies (GWASs) for CIPN in two independent populations who had completed European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ)-CIPN20 assessments (a CIPN-specific 20-item questionnaire which includes three scales that evaluate sensory, autonomic, and motor symptoms). The study population N08Cx included 692 participants from three clinical trials (North Central Cancer Treatment Group (NCCTG) N08C1, N08CA, and N08CB) who had been treated with paclitaxel, paclitaxel plus carboplatin, or oxaliplatin. The primary endpoint for the GWAS was the change from pre-chemotherapy CIPN20 sensory score to the worse score over the following 18 weeks. Study population The Mayo Clinic Breast Disease Registry (MCBDR) consisted of 381 Mayo Clinic Breast Disease Registry enrollees who had been treated with taxane or platinum-based chemotherapy. The primary endpoint for the GWAS assessed was the earliest CIPN20 sensory score available after the completion of chemotherapy. In multivariate model analyses, chemotherapy regimen (p = 3.0 × 10-8) and genetic ancestry (p = 0.007) were significantly associated with CIPN in the N08Cx population. Only age (p = 0.0004) was significantly associated with CIPN in the MCBDR population. The SNP most associated with CIPN was rs56360211 near PDE6C (p =7.92 × 10-8) in N08Cx and rs113807868 near TMEM150C in the MCBDR (p = 1.27 × 10-8). Due to a lack of replication, we cannot conclude that we identified any genetic predictors of CIPN.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) has long been recognized as a clinically significant issue in patients treated with antineoplastic drugs. This common long-term toxic side-effect which negatively impacts the outcome of the disease can lead to disability and have detrimental effects on patients' quality of life. Since axonal injury is a prominent feature of CIPN, responsible for several sensory symptoms, including pain, sensory loss and hypersensitivity to mechanical and/or cold stimuli in the hands and feet, neurophysiological assessments remain the gold standard for clinical diagnosis of CIPN. Given the large impact of CIPN on cancer patients, there is increasing emphasis on biomarkers of adverse outcomes in safety assessment and translational research, to prevent permanent neuroaxonal damage. Since the results on reliable blood molecular markers for axonal degeneration are still controversial, here we provide a brief overview of blood molecular biomarkers used for assessing and/or predicting CIPN in preclinical and clinical settings.

Abstract
Introduction: Peripheral neuropathy (PN) is an adverse effect of several classes of chemotherapy including the taxanes. Predictive PN biomarkers could inform individualized taxane treatment to reduce PN and enhance therapeutic outcomes. Pharmacogenetics studies of taxane-induced PN have focused on genes involved in pharmacokinetics, including enzymes and transporters. Contradictory findings from these studies prevent translation of genetic biomarkers into clinical practice. Areas covered: This review discusses the progress toward identifying pharmacogenetic predictors of PN by assessing the evidence for two independent associations; the effect of pharmacogenetics on taxane pharmacokinetics and the evidence that taxane pharmacokinetics affects PN. Assessing these direct relationships allows the reader to understand the progress toward individualized taxane treatment and future research opportunities. Expert opinion: Paclitaxel pharmacokinetics is a major determinant of PN. Additional clinical trials are needed to confirm the clinical benefit of individualized dosing to achieve target paclitaxel exposure. Genetics does not meaningfully contribute to paclitaxel pharmacokinetics and may not be useful to inform dosing. However, genetics may contribute to PN sensitivity and could be useful for estimating patients' optimal paclitaxel exposure. For docetaxel, genetics has not been demonstrated to have a meaningful effect on pharmacokinetics and there is no evidence that pharmacokinetics determines PN.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This article reviews neurologic complications associated with chemotherapy, radiation therapy, antiangiogenic therapy, and immunotherapy. RECENT FINDINGS Cancer therapies can cause a wide range of neurologic adverse effects and may result in significant patient morbidity and mortality. Although some treatment-associated neurologic complications manifest acutely and are often reversible and transient, others occur with delayed onset, can be progressive, and are uniquely challenging to patient management. With an increase in multimodality and combination therapies, including targeted therapies and immunotherapies, and prolonged patient survival, novel and unique patterns of neurologic complications have emerged. SUMMARY Both conventional and novel cancer therapies can adversely affect the nervous system, thereby producing a wide range of neurologic complications. Increased awareness among neurologists and early recognition of cancer therapy-induced neurotoxic syndromes is critically important to minimize patient morbidity, prevent permanent injury, and improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
Vincristine (VCR) is a well-known anticancer drug, and frequently causes painful neuropathy and impairs the quality of life of patients. However, the molecular mechanisms revealing VCR-induced neuropathy are still unclear, and effectively therapeutic strategy is still necessary. Bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4) has long been implicated in many different pathological processes, in particular, the development of oxidative stress and inflammation. In the present study, we showed that BRD4 played a mechanistic role in VCR-induced peripheral neuropathy. Using the in vivo transfection of BRD4 siRNA, we found that BRD4 suppression markedly alleviated VCR-induced neuropathic pain. Macrophage infiltration in sciatic nerve was effectively inhibited in VCR-challenged mice with BRD4 knockdown, as evidenced by the markedly reduced expression of F4/80. In the VCR-induced sciatic nerve tissues, we found that the mRNA and protein expression levels of C-X3-C motif chemokine receptor 1 (CX3CR1) and C-C chemokine receptor type 2 (CCR2) were greatly elevated, which were, however, mitigated by siBRD4 injection. In addition, oxidative stress induced by VCR was markedly restrained in sciatic nerve from mice with BRD4 knockdown, which was closely associated with the improved activation of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf-2) signaling. The in vitro studies indicated that in H2O2-stimulated primary neurons, BRD4 silence markedly reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and improved Nrf-2 activation, exhibiting anti-oxidant effects. Finally, BRD4 selective inhibitor JQ1 was subjected to mice challenged with VCR. The results confirmed that reducing BRD4 expression by JQ1 effectively ameliorated VCR-induced peripheral neuropathy also through repressing macrophage infiltration, inflammatory response and oxidative stress. Taken together, these findings demonstrated that BRD4 played a critical role in VCR-induced neuropathy, and developing novel and new therapies might be effective for the treatment of VCR-induced neuropathic pain.

Abstract
Taxane-derived drugs are antineoplastic agents used for the treatment of highly common malignancies. Paclitaxel and docetaxel are the most commonly used taxanes; however, other drugs and formulations have been used, such as cabazitaxel and nab-paclitaxel. Taxane treatment is associated with neurotoxicity, a well-known and relevant side effect, very prevalent amongst patients undergoing chemotherapy. Painful peripheral neuropathy is the most dose-limiting side effect of taxanes, affecting up to 97% of paclitaxel-treated patients. Central neurotoxicity is an emerging side effect of taxanes and it is characterized by cognitive impairment and encephalopathy. Besides impairing compliance to chemotherapy treatment, taxane-induced neurotoxicity (TIN) can adversely affect the patient's life quality on a long-term basis. Despite the clinical relevance, not many reviews have comprehensively addressed taxane-induced neurotoxicity when they are used therapeutically. This article provides an up-to-date review on the pathophysiology of TIN and the novel potential therapies to prevent or treat this side effect.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Physical activity may mitigate the effects of cancer treatment. We sought to evaluate the association between self-reported physical activity, neuropathy symptomatology, and emotional health in gynecologic cancer survivors. METHODS Patients were recruited from an academic gynecologic oncology practice to a prospective cohort study. Participants completed semiannual surveys on quality of life (QOL), neuropathy symptoms, depression, distress, and health behaviors. Abstracted clinical data included cancer type, FIGO stage at diagnosis and treatments received (chemotherapy, surgery, radiation). Physical activity [no: moderate physical activity <150 min/week, yes: ≥150 min/week] and neuropathy symptomatology [high (FACT/GOG-Ntx ≥11; upper quartile); low (<11)] were dichotomized. Linear regression models assessed the associations between physical activity, neuropathy and psychosocial outcomes. RESULTS A total of 194 participants were included in this analysis. We identified significant interactions between physical activity and neuropathy in the depression (p = 0.0006) and QOL (p = 0.007) models. Greater physical activity and lower neuropathy scores were independently associated with fewer depressive symptoms (p = 0.02 and p < 0.0001, respectively) and greater QOL (p = 0.005 and p < 0.0001). Low neuropathy scores were associated with lower distress (p < 0.0001). Women with high neuropathy scores had larger beneficial associations between being physically active and depression and QOL. In the distress model, interaction between neuropathy and physical activity was suggested (p = 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Physical activity was associated with favorable psychosocial outcomes in gynecologic cancer survivors, most notably among those with worse neuropathy. These data suggest prescriptive exercise should be evaluated as a means of mitigating cancer-associated neuropathies and their effect on emotional health.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is regarded as one of the most common dose-limiting adverse effects of several chemotherapeutic agents, such as platinum derivatives (oxaliplatin and cisplatin), taxanes, vinca alkaloids and bortezomib. CIPN affects more than 60% of patients receiving anticancer therapy and although it is a nonfatal condition, it significantly worsens patients' quality of life. The number of analgesic drugs used to relieve pain symptoms in CIPN is very limited and their efficacy in CIPN is significantly lower than that observed in other neuropathic pain types. Importantly, there are currently no recommended options for effective prevention of CIPN, and strong evidence for the utility and clinical efficacy of some previously tested preventive therapies is still limited. METHODS The present article is the second one in the two-part series of review articles focused on CIPN. It summarizes the most recent advances in the field of studies on CIPN caused by oxaliplatin, the third-generation platinum-based antitumor drug used to treat colorectal cancer. Pharmacological properties of oxaliplatin, genetic, molecular and clinical features of oxaliplatin-induced neuropathy are discussed. RESULTS Available therapies, as well as results from clinical trials assessing drug candidates for the prevention of oxaliplatin-induced neuropathy are summarized. CONCLUSION Emerging novel chemical structures-potential future preventative pharmacotherapies for CIPN caused by oxaliplatin are reported.

Abstract
Taxane-induced peripheral neurotoxicity (TIPN) is the most common non-hematological side effect of taxane-based chemotherapy, and may result in dose reductions and discontinuations, having as such a detrimental effect on patients' overall survival. Epothilones share similar mechanism of action with taxanes. The typical TIPN clinical presentation is mainly comprised of numbness and paresthesia, in a stocking-and-glove distribution and may progress more proximally over time, with paclitaxel being more neurotoxic than docetaxel. Motor and autonomic involvement is less common, whereas an acute taxane-induced acute pain syndrome is frequent. Patient reported outcomes questionnaires, clinical evaluation, and instrumental tools offer complementary information in TIPN. Its electrodiagnostic features include reduced/abolished sensory action potentials, and less prominent motor involvement, in keeping with a length-dependent, axonal dying back predominately sensory neuropathy. TIPN is dose-dependent and may be reversible within months after the end of chemotherapy. The single and cumulative delivered dose of taxanes is considered the main risk factor of TIPN development. Apart from the cumulative dose, other risk factors for TIPN include demographic, clinical, and pharmacogenetic features with several single-nucleotide polymorphisms potentially linked with increased susceptibility of TIPN. There are currently no neuroprotective strategies to reduce the risk of TIPN, and symptomatic treatments are very limited. This review critically examines the pathogenesis, incidence, risk factors (both clinical and pharmacogenetic), clinical phenotype and management of TIPN.

Oral Capecitabine-Vinorelbine is Associated with Longer Overall Survival When Compared to Single-Agent Capecitabine in Patients with Hormone Receptor-Positive Advanced Breast Cancer. Cancers (Basel) 2020; 12:cancers12030617. [PMID: 32155941 PMCID: PMC7139362 DOI: 10.3390/cancers12030617] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2020] [Revised: 02/27/2020] [Accepted: 03/04/2020] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Single-agent capecitabine (C) is a moderately effective chemotherapeutic compound in the treatment of patients with HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer (mBC). The capecitabine-vinorelbine (CV) combination is also used due to a good tolerability profile, but no studies have demonstrated its superiority over single-agent C. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis to compare overall response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and incidence of adverse events (AEs) in patients with HER2-negative mBC treated with CV vs. single-agent C. Results: Out of 290 patients included in this study, 127 (43.8%) received single-agent C, while 163 (56.2%) patients were treated with CV. Median PFS was similar in patients treated with single-agent C or CV, while CV was associated with significantly longer OS in patients with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) BC. This OS advantage was confirmed at multivariable analysis also after propensity score-based matching of patients according to relevant clinical or tumor characteristics. When compared with single-agent C, CV was associated with higher incidence of G3/G4 and any-grade nausea/vomiting, diarrhea and increased transaminases. Conclusions: While prospective studies are needed to confirm our findings, the potential OS advantage of CV over single-agent C in HR+ mBC patients must be weighed against a significantly higher incidence of AEs.

Abstract
Peripheral neuropathy is one of the most common, dose limiting, and long-lasting disabling adverse events of chemotherapy treatment. Unfortunately, no treatment has proven efficacy to prevent this adverse effect in patients or improve the nerve regeneration, once it is established. Experimental models, particularly using rats and mice, are useful to investigate the mechanisms related to axonal or neuronal degeneration and target loss of function induced by neurotoxic drugs, as well as to test new strategies to prevent the development of neuropathy and to improve functional restitution. Therefore, objective and reliable methods should be applied for the assessment of function and innervation in adequately designed in vivo studies of CIPN, taking into account the impact of age, sex and species/strains features. This review gives an overview of the most useful methods to assess sensory, motor and autonomic functions, electrophysiological and morphological tests in rodent models of peripheral neuropathy, focused on CIPN. We include as well a proposal of protocols that may improve the quality and comparability of studies undertaken in different laboratories. It is recommended to apply more than one functional method for each type of function, and to perform parallel morphological studies in the same targets and models.

Abstract
Although recent scientific advances have improved our understanding of basic biological mechanisms underlying chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), few interventions are available to prevent or treat CIPN. Although some biological targets from preclinical studies show promise in nonhuman animal models, few targets have been translated to successful clinical trials. To address this problem, the National Cancer Institute's Symptom Management and Health-Related Quality of Life Steering Committee convened a meeting of experts in the CIPN and oncology symptom management fields to participate in a Clinical Trials Planning Meeting (CTPM). Investigators presented data from preclinical and translational studies for possible CIPN interventions; these were evaluated for readiness of randomized clinical trial testing by experts, and recommendations were provided. Breakout sessions were convened to discuss and develop future studies. The CTPM experts concluded that there is compelling evidence to move forward with selected pharmacological and nonpharmacological clinical trials for the prevention and treatment of CIPN. Several key feasibility issues need to be addressed, however. These include identification of optimal outcome measures to define the CIPN phenotype, establishment of parameters that guide the evaluation of clinically meaningful effects, and adoption of approaches for inclusion of translational and biomarker and/or genetic measures. The results of the CTPM provide support for conducting clinical trials that include both pharmacological and nonpharmacological approaches, alone or in combination, with biomarkers, genetics, or other measures designed to inform underlying CIPN mechanisms. Several working groups were formed to design rigorous CIPN clinical trials, the results of which are ongoing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recently, the efficacy of cryotherapy and compression therapy to prevent taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy has been reported. We prospectively compared the efficacy of cryotherapy using a frozen glove (FG) and compression therapy using a surgical glove (SG) to prevent nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-PTX)-induced peripheral neuropathy. PATIENTS AND METHODS Breast cancer patients who received 260 mg/m2 of nab-PTX were eligible to participate in this trial. Patients wore a FG on one hand (60 min) without changing and two SGs of the same size (i.e., one size smaller than the size that best fit their hand) on the other hand (90 min) during chemotherapy. Peripheral neuropathy was evaluated at each treatment cycle using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0, the Patient Neurotoxicity Questionnaire (PNQ), and the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Taxane subscale. Temperatures at each fingertip in both groups were measured thermographically. RESULTS Between August 2017 and March 2019, 43 patients were enrolled and 38 were evaluated. No cases showed discordance of peripheral neuropathy between each gloved group in cases of CTCAE ≥ grade 2. In cases of PNQ ≥ grade D, using the Nam equivalence test, the upper test (P = 0.0329) and lower test (P = 0.0052) both showed negative results in comparisons between each gloved group. Fingertip temperature was significantly lower in the FG group than in the SG group after treatment (P < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS It seems to be no difference in incidence of nab-PTX-induced peripheral neuropathy using either cryotherapy or compression therapy.

Abstract
Persistent, in particular neuropathic pain affects millions of people worldwide. However, the response rate of patients to existing analgesic drugs is less than 50%. There are several possibilities to increase this response rate, such as optimization of the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of analgesics. Another promising approach is to use prognostic biomarkers in patients to determine the optimal pharmacological therapy for each individual. Here, we discuss recent efforts to identify plasma and CSF biomarkers, as well as genetic biomarkers and sensory testing, and how these readouts could be exploited for the prediction of a suitable pharmacological treatment. Collectively, the information on single biomarkers may be stored in knowledge bases and processed by machine-learning and related artificial intelligence techniques, resulting in the optimal pharmacological treatment for individual pain patients. We highlight the potential for biomarker-based individualized pain therapies and discuss biomarker reliability and their utility in clinical practice, as well as limitations of this approach.

Abstract
Pharmacometabolomics has been already successfully used in toxicity prediction for one specific adverse effect. However in clinical practice, two or more different toxicities are always accompanied with each other, which puts forward new challenges for pharmacometabolomics. Gastrointestinal toxicity and myelosuppression are two major adverse effects induced by Irinotecan (CPT-11), and often show large individual differences. In the current study, a pharmacometabolomic study was performed to screen the exclusive biomarkers in predose serums which could predict late-onset diarrhea and myelosuppression of CPT-11 simultaneously. The severity and sensitivity differences in gastrointestinal toxicity and myelosuppression were judged by delayed-onset diarrhea symptoms, histopathology examination, relative cytokines and blood cell counts. Mass spectrometry-based non-targeted and targeted metabolomics were conducted in sequence to dissect metabolite signatures in predose serums. Eventually, two groups of metabolites were screened out as predictors for individual differences in late-onset diarrhea and myelosuppression using binary logistic regression, respectively. This result was compared with existing predictors and validated by another independent external validation set. Our study indicates the prediction of toxicity could be possible upon predose metabolic profile. Pharmacometabolomics can be a potentially useful tool for complicating toxicity prediction. Our findings also provide a new insight into CPT-11 precision medicine.

Abstract
Background Paclitaxel is one of the most commonly used drugs to treat breast cancer. Its
major dose-limiting toxicity is paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy
(PIPN). PIPN persists into survivorship and has a negative impact on
patient’s mood, functional status, and quality of life. No interventions are
available to treat PIPN. A critical barrier to the development of
efficacious interventions is the lack of understanding of the mechanisms
that underlie PIPN. Mitochondrial dysfunction has been evaluated in
preclinical studies as a hypothesized mechanism for PIPN, but clinical data
to support this hypothesis are limited. The purpose of this pilot study was
to evaluate for differential gene expression and perturbed pathways between
breast cancer survivors with and without PIPN. Methods Gene expression in peripheral blood was assayed using RNA-seq. Differentially
expressed genes (DEG) and pathways associated with mitochondrial dysfunction
were identified between survivors who received paclitaxel and did (n = 25)
and did not (n = 25) develop PIPN. Results Breast cancer survivors with PIPN were significantly older; more likely to be
unemployed; reported lower alcohol use; had a higher body mass index and
poorer functional status; and had a higher number of lower extremity sites
with loss of light touch, cold, and pain sensations and higher vibration
thresholds. No between-group differences were found in the cumulative dose
of paclitaxel received or in the percentage of patients who had a dose
reduction or delay due to PIPN. Five DEGs and nine perturbed pathways were
associated with mitochondrial dysfunction related to oxidative stress, iron
homeostasis, mitochondrial fission, apoptosis, and autophagy. Conclusions This study is the first to provide molecular evidence that a number of
mitochondrial dysfunction mechanisms identified in preclinical models of
various types of neuropathic pain including chemotherapy-induced peripheral
neuropathy are found in breast cancer survivors with persistent PIPN and
suggest genes for validation and as potential therapeutic targets.

Oxadiazon affects the expression and activity of aldehyde dehydrogenase and acylphosphatase in human striatal precursor cells: A possible role in neurotoxicity. Toxicology 2018; 411:110-121. [PMID: 30391265 DOI: 10.1016/j.tox.2018.10.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2018] [Revised: 10/05/2018] [Accepted: 10/30/2018] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Exposure to herbicides can induce long-term chronic adverse effects such as respiratory diseases, malignancies and neurodegenerative diseases. Oxadiazon, a pre-emergence or early post-emergence herbicide, despite its low acute toxicity, may induce liver cancer and may exert adverse effects on reproductive and on endocrine functions. Unlike other herbicides, there are no indications on neurotoxicity associated with long-term exposure to oxadiazon. Therefore, we have analyzed in primary neuronal precursor cells isolated from human striatal primordium the effects of non-cytotoxic doses of oxadiazon on neuronal cell differentiation and migration, and on the expression and activity of the mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) and of the acylphosphatase (ACYP). ALDH2 activity protects neurons against neurotoxicity induced by toxic aldehydes during oxidative stress and plays a role in neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. ACYP is involved in ion transport, cell differentiation, programmed cell death and cancer, and increased levels of ACYP have been revealed in fibroblasts from patients affected by Alzheimer's disease. In this study we demonstrated that non-cytotoxic doses of oxadiazon were able to inhibit neuronal striatal cell migration and FGF2- and BDNF-dependent differentiation towards neuronal phenotype, and to inhibit the expression and activity of ALDH2 and to increase the expression and activity of ACYP2. In addition, we have provided evidence that in human primary neuronal precursor striatal cells the inhibitory effects of oxadiazon on cell migration and differentiation towards neuronal phenotype were achieved through modulation of ACYP2. Taken together, our findings reveal for the first time that oxadiazon could exert neurotoxic effects by impairing differentiative capabilities of primary neuronal cells and indicate that ALDH2 and ACYP2 are relevant molecular targets for the neurotoxic effects of oxadiazon, suggesting a potential role of this herbicide in the onset of neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
The burdensome condition of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy occurs with various chemotherapeutics, including bortezomib, oxaliplatin, paclitaxel and vincristine. The symptoms, which include pain, numbness, tingling and loss of motor function, can result in therapy titrations that compromise therapy efficacy. Understanding the mechanisms of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy is therefore essential, yet incompletely understood. The literature presented here will address a multitude of molecular and cellular mechanisms, beginning with the most well-understood cellular and molecular-level changes. These modifications include alterations in voltage-gated ion channels, neurochemical transmission, organelle function and intracellular pathways. System-level alterations, including changes to glial cells and cytokine activation are also explored. Finally, we present research on the current understanding of genetic contributions to this condition. Suggestions for future research are provided.
