Fazl F, Gholivand MB. Characterization and optimization of magnetic molecularly imprinted nanofibers for determination of sunitinib in human serum and capsule samples. Talanta 2024; 279:126588.

Abstract
This article reports a spectrofluorometric method for the determination of sunitinib (STB) drug based on molecularly imprinted nanofibers fabricated by the electrospinning method and modified by magnetic nanoparticles as sorbent. The characterization of magnetic molecularly imprinted nanofibers (MMINs) was carried out using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), which confirmed the successful synthesis of MMINs with well-distributed magnetite nanoparticles. Drug adsorption and desorption were optimized and important parameters such as sample pH, nanofiber mass, adsorption and desorption time, eluent solvent and sample volume were analyzed. The results demonstrated that the MMINs act as a selective sorbent for STB and can be readily collected through an external magnetic field. Methanol was used as the best eluent solvent for STB desorption from MNIN. A linear correlation was observed between the STB concentrations and fluorescence intensities in the range of 0.01-15.0 mg L-1. The detection limit for this method was 0.002 mg L-1. The relative standard deviation (RSD) of 2.6 % for 1.0 mg L-1 and 1.1 % for 10 mg L-1 of STB (n = 3) were obtained, which indicates that the developed method is precise in determining STB. Human serum and capsule analysis show the applicability of the proposed sensor for real samples.

In Vitro Assessment of Inhibitory Effects of Kinase Inhibitors on CYP2C9, 3A and 1A2: Prediction of Drug-Drug Interaction Risk with Warfarin and Direct Oral Anticoagulants. Eur J Pharm Sci 2024:106884. [PMID: 39218046 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejps.2024.106884] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2023] [Revised: 07/18/2024] [Accepted: 08/21/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate the cytochrome P450 (CYP)-mediated drug-drug interaction (DDI) potential of kinase inhibitors with warfarin and direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs). METHODS An in vitro CYP probe substrate cocktail assay was used to study the inhibitory effects of fifteen kinase inhibitors on CYP2C9, 3A, and 1A2. Then, DDI predictions were performed using both mechanistic static and physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models. RESULTS Linsitinib, masitinib, regorafenib, tozasertib, trametinib, and vatalanib were identified as competitive CYP2C9 inhibitors (Ki = 1.4, 1.0, 1.1, 3.8, 0.5, and 0.1 μM, respectively). Masitinib and vatalanib were competitive CYP3A inhibitors (Ki = 1.3 and 0.2 μM), and vatalanib noncompetitively inhibited CYP1A2 (Ki = 2.0 μM). Moreover, linsitinib and tozasertib were CYP3A time-dependent inhibitors (KI = 26.5 and 400.3 μM, kinact = 0.060 and 0.026 min-1, respectively). Only linsitinib showed time-dependent inhibition of CYP1A2 (KI = 13.9 μM, kinact = 0.018 min-1). Mechanistic static models identified possible DDI risks for linsitinib and vatalanib with (S)-/(R)-warfarin, and for masitinib with (S)-warfarin. PBPK simulations further confirmed that vatalanib may increase (S)- and (R)-warfarin exposure by 4.37- and 1.80-fold, respectively, and that linsitinib may increase (R)-warfarin exposure by 3.10-fold. Mechanistic static models predicted a smaller risk of DDIs between kinase inhibitors and apixaban or rivaroxaban. The greatest AUC increases (1.50-1.74) were predicted for erlotinib in combination with apixaban and rivaroxaban. Linsitinib, masitinib, and vatalanib were predicted to have a smaller effect on apixaban and rivaroxaban AUCs (AUCR 1.22-1.53). No kinase inhibitor was predicted to increase edoxaban exposure. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that several kinase inhibitors, including vatalanib and linsitinib, can cause CYP-mediated drug-drug interactions with warfarin and, to a lesser extent, with apixaban and rivaroxaban. The work provides mechanistic insights into the risk of DDIs between kinase inhibitors and anticoagulants, which can be used to avoid preventable DDIs in the clinic.

Abstract
Previously, the tyrosine kinase inhibitor sunitinib failed to show clinical benefit in patients with recurrent glioblastoma. Low intratumoural sunitinib accumulation in glioblastoma patients was reported as a possible explanation for the lack of therapeutic benefit. We designed a randomized phase II/III trial to evaluate whether a high-dose intermittent sunitinib schedule, aimed to increase intratumoural drug concentrations, would result in improved clinical benefit compared to standard treatment with lomustine. Patients with recurrent glioblastoma were randomized 1:1 to high-dose intermittent sunitinib 300 mg once weekly (Q1W, part 1) or 700 mg once every two weeks (Q2W, part 2) or lomustine. The primary end-point was progression-free survival. Based on the pre-planned interim analysis, the trial was terminated for futility after including 26 and 29 patients in parts 1 and 2. Median progression-free survival of sunitinib 300 mg Q1W was 1.5 months (95% CI 1.4-1.7) compared to 1.5 months (95% CI 1.4-1.6) in the lomustine arm (P = 0.59). Median progression-free survival of sunitinib 700 mg Q2W was 1.4 months (95% CI 1.2-1.6) versus 1.6 months (95% CI 1.3-1.8) for lomustine (P = 0.70). Adverse events (≥grade 3) were observed in 25%, 21% and 31% of patients treated with sunitinib 300 mg Q1W, sunitinib 700 mg Q2W and lomustine, respectively (P = 0.92). To conclude, high-dose intermittent sunitinib treatment failed to improve the outcome of patients with recurrent glioblastoma when compared to standard lomustine therapy. Since lomustine remains a poor standard treatment strategy for glioblastoma, innovative treatment strategies are urgently needed.

Abstract
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) have introduced a significant advancement in cancer management. These compounds are administered orally, and their absorption holds a pivotal role in determining their variable efficacy. They exhibit extensive distribution within the body, binding strongly to both plasma and tissue proteins. Often reliant on efflux and influx transporters, TKI undergo primary metabolism by intestinal and hepatic cytochrome P450 enzymes, with nonkidney clearance being predominant. Owing to their limited therapeutic window, many TKI display considerable intraindividual and interindividual variability. This review offers a comprehensive analysis of the clinical pharmacokinetics of TKI, detailing their interactions with drug transporters and metabolic enzymes, while discussing potential clinical implications. The prevalence of kidney conditions, such as AKI and CKD, among patients with cancer is explored in their effect on TKI pharmacokinetics. Finally, the potential nephrotoxicity associated with TKI is also examined.

Abstract
In this final part, the models of drug concentration in blood developed in Part 3 are validated on dogs. Both slow-release gastroretentive fibrous and immediate-release particulate dosage forms containing 200 mg nilotinib were tested. After administering, the fibrous dosage form expanded linearly with time in the stomach, to about 1.5 times the initial radius by 4 h. The expanded dosage form fractured after 10 h, and then passed into the intestines. The drug concentration in blood exhibited a broad peak with a maximum of 0.51 μg/ml and a width at half-height of 10.2 h. By contrast, after administering the immediate-release capsule the drug concentration in blood exhibited a sharp peak with a maximum of 0.68 μg/ml and a width at half-height of just 3.6 h. The experimental data validate the theoretical models reasonably. The gastroretentive fibrous dosage forms designed in this study enable a steady drug concentration in blood for increasing the efficacy and mitigating side effects of drug therapies.

Abstract
In this part, drug concentration in blood after ingesting slow-release gastroretentive fibrous dosage forms and immediate-release particulate forms is modeled. The tyrosine kinase inhibitor nilotinib, which is slightly soluble in low-pH gastric fluid but practically insoluble in pH-neutral intestinal fluid is used as drug. The models suggest that upon ingestion, the fibrous dosage form expands, is retained in the stomach for prolonged time, and releases drug into the gastric fluid at a constant rate. The released drug molecules flow into the duodenum with the gastric fluid, and are absorbed by the blood. The drug is eliminated from the blood by the liver at a rate proportional to its concentration. Eventually, the elimination and absorption rates will be equal, and the drug concentration in blood plateaus out. After the gastric residence time drug absorption stops, and the drug concentration in blood drops to zero. By contrast, after administering an immediate-release particulate dosage form the drug particles are swept out of the stomach rapidly, and drug absorption stops much earlier. The drug concentration in blood rises and falls without attaining steady state. The gastroretentive fibrous dosage forms enable a constant drug concentration in blood for drugs that are insoluble in intestinal fluids.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Dasatinib is one of the tyrosine kinase inhibitors. The main use of these agents is inhibition of cancerous cell proliferation. The therapeutic importance of tyrosine kinase inhibitors raises the necessity of many types of investigations, especially the pharmacokinetic analysis of these drugs in humans. This analysis, along with other investigations and clinical research, will contribute to the overall knowledge of the drug. This study focused on the population pharmacokinetics of dasatinib. The objective of the study was to investigate the sources of the variability of dasatinib in a population pharmacokinetics study in healthy participants. METHODS We utilized 4180 plasma observations from 110 subjects who were administered SPRYCEL® on two separate occasions under fasting conditions; data from 20% of the subjects (22 subjects) were extracted for the purpose of internal model evaluation and data from 88 subjects were used in modeling. The model was evaluated by visual predictive check of three different datasets. A two-compartmental model with first order absorption and transit compartment was considered the simplest base model to describe the data based on the corrected Bayesian information criterion evaluation. Covariates were tested through conditional sampling for the stepwise approach-screening procedure in Monolix 2020R1 version. Conditional sampling for the stepwise approach was used to include the correlated covariates within the base model in the forward inclusion step and then to eliminate them backwardly to ensure that the key covariates were kept in the model at the final stage. RESULTS The effect of body mass index on the absorption rate constant was considered as significant covariate in the final established model. Visual predictive check for simulations, 20% of the original dataset (internal dataset) and an external dataset demonstrated the appropriateness of the final model. CONCLUSIONS Population pharmacokinetic modeling was performed to describe dasatinib pharmacokinetics in healthy subjects. Body mass index was considered as a factor that might be used in the future along with studies on patients to adjust the dosing regimens. KEY POINTS Dasatinib is classified as a highly variable drug; this variability was demonstrated in the study by the effect of body mass index on the absorption rate constant.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adrenocortical carcinoma is a rare malignancy with poor response to systemic chemotherapy. Mitotane is the only approved therapy for adrenocortical carcinoma. Cabozantinib is a multikinase inhibitor approved in multiple malignancies. This is the first prospective trial to explore the anti-tumour activity, safety, and pharmacokinetic profile of cabozantinib in patients with advanced adrenocortical carcinoma. METHODS This investigator-initiated, single-arm, phase 2 trial in adult patients (aged ≥18 years) with advanced adrenocortical carcinoma was done at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center (Houston, TX, USA). Eligible patients had histologically confirmed adrenocortical carcinoma, were not candidates for surgery with curative intent, had measurable disease, had an estimated life expectancy of at least 3 months, and an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-2 with adequate organ function. Patients who had used mitotane within 6 months of study participation were required to have a serum mitotane level of less than 2 mg/L. Patients were given oral cabozantinib 60 mg daily with the option of dose reduction to manage adverse events. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival at 4 months, assessed in all patients who received at least one dose of study drug per protocol. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03370718, and is now complete. FINDINGS Between March 1, 2018, and May 31, 2021, we enrolled 18 patients (ten males and eight females), all of whom received at least one dose of study treatment. Of the 18 patients, eight (44%) had an ECOG performance status of 0, nine (50%) patients had a performance status of 1, and one (6%) patient had a performance status of 2. Median follow-up was 36·8 months (IQR 30·2-50·3). At 4 months, 13 (72·2%; 95% CI 46·5-90·3) of 18 patients had progression-free survival and median progression-free survival was 6 months (95% CI 4·3 to not reached). One patient remains on treatment. Treatment-related adverse events of grade 3 or worse occurred in 11 (61%) of 18 patients. The most common grade 3 adverse events were lipase elevation (three [17%] of 18 patients), elevated γ-glutamyl transferase concentrations (two [11%] patients), elevated alanine aminotransferase concentrations (two [11%] patients), hypophosphatemia (two [11%] patients), and hypertension (two [11%] patients). One (6%) of 18 patients had grade 4 hypertension. No treatment related deaths occurred on study. INTERPRETATION Cabozantinib in advanced adrenocortical carcinoma showed promising efficacy with a manageable and anticipated safety profile. Further prospective studies with cabozantinib alone and in combination with immune checkpoint therapy are ongoing. FUNDING Exelixis.

Abstract
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have emerged as the first-line small molecule drugs in many cancer therapies, exerting their effects by impeding aberrant cell growth and proliferation through the modulation of tyrosine kinase-mediated signaling pathways. However, there exists a substantial inter-individual variability in the concentrations of certain TKIs and their metabolites, which may render patients with compromised immune function susceptible to diverse infections despite receiving theoretically efficacious anticancer treatments, alongside other potential side effects or adverse reactions. Therefore, an urgent need exists for an up-to-date review concerning the biological matrices relevant to bioanalysis and the sampling methods, clinical pharmacokinetics, and therapeutic drug monitoring of different TKIs. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the advancements in pretreatment methods, such as protein precipitation (PPT), liquid-liquid extraction (LLE), solid-phase extraction (SPE), micro-SPE (μ-SPE), magnetic SPE (MSPE), and vortex-assisted dispersive SPE (VA-DSPE) achieved since 2017. It also highlights the latest analysis techniques such as newly developed high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) methods, capillary electrophoresis (CE), gas chromatography (GC), supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) procedures, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) assays as well as novel nanoprobes-based biosensing techniques. In addition, a comparison is made between the advantages and disadvantages of different approaches while presenting critical challenges and prospects in pharmacokinetic studies and therapeutic drug monitoring.

Abstract
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have become first-line drugs for cancer treatment. However, their clinical use is seriously hindered since many patients experience diarrhea after receiving TKIs. The mechanisms of TKI-associated diarrhea remain unclear. Most existing therapies are symptomatic treatments based on experience and their effects are unsatisfactory. Therefore, clarification of the mechanisms underlying diarrhea is critical to develop effective anti-diarrhea drugs. This article summarizes several potential mechanisms of TKI-associated diarrhea and reviews current treatment progress.

Abstract
Aim: Investigation of the pharmacokinetics of sorafenib (SRF) in rats with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods: A reproducible ultra-HPLC-MS method for simultaneous determination of serum SRF, N-hydroxymethyl sorafenib and N-demethylation sorafenib. Results: Both the maximum serum concentrations (2.5-times) and the area under the serum concentration-time curve from 0 h to infinity (4.5-times) of SRF were observed to be significantly higher, with a greater than 3.0-fold decrease in the clearance rate in the HCC-bearing rats compared with these values in healthy animals. Further study revealed approximately 3.8- and 3.2-times increases in the apparent Michaelis constant for N-hydroxymethyl sorafenib and N-demethylation sorafenib conversions in the HCC-bearing rats. Conclusion: The low efficiency for the SRF conversions was a key contributor to the increased serum concentrations of SRF.

Abstract
To provide evidence for optimization of multi-kinase inhibitors (MKIs) use in the clinic, we use the public database to describe and evaluate electrolyte disorders (EDs) related to various MKIs treated for renal cell carcinoma. We analyzed spontaneous reports submitted to the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Events Reporting System (FAERS) in an observational and retrospective manner. Selecting electrolyte disorders' adverse events to multikinase inhibitors (axitinib, cabozantinib, lenvatinib, pazopanib, sunitinib, and sorafenib). We used Reporting Odds Ratio (ROR), Proportional Reporting Ratio (PRR), Bayesian Confidence Propagation Neural Network (BCPNN), and multi-item gamma Poisson shrinker (MGPS) algorithms to analyze suspected adverse reactions of electrolyte disorders induced by MKIs (which were treated for renal cell carcinoma) between January 2004 and December 2022. As of December 2022, 2772 MKIs (which were treated for renal cell carcinoma) ICSRs were related to electrolyte disorders AEs. In general, there were more AEs cases in males, except lenvatinib and 71.8% of the cases were submitted from North America. ICSRs in this study, the age group most frequently affected by electrolyte disorders AEs was individuals aged 45-64 years for axitinib, cabozantinib, pazopanib, and sunitinib, whereas electrolyte disorders AEs were more common in older patients (65-74 years) for sorafenib and lenvatinib. For all EDs documented in ICSRs (excluding missing data), the most common adverse outcome was hospitalization(1429/2674, 53.4%), and the most serious outcome was death/life-threat(281/2674, 10.5%). The prevalence of mortality was highest for sunitinib-related EDs (145/616, 23.5%), excluding missing data (n = 68), followed by cabozantinib-related EDs (20/237, 8.4%), excluding missing data (n = 1). The distribution of time-to-onset of Each drug-related ICSRs was not all the same, and the difference was statistically significant (P = 0.001). With the criteria of ROR, the six MKIs were all significantly associated with electrolyte disorders AEs, the strongest association was the association between cabozantinib and hypermagnesaemia. MKIs have been reported to have significant electrolyte disorders AEs. Patients and physicians need to recognize and monitor these potentially fatal adverse events.

Eur J Drug Metab Pharmacokinet 2024; 49:239-247. [PMID: 38376657 DOI: 10.1007/s13318-024-00881-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 01/22/2024] [Indexed: 02/21/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The novel tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) dasatinib, a multitarget inhibitor of Bcr-Abl and Src family kinases, has been licensed for the treatment of Ph+ acute lymphoblastic leukemia and chronic myeloid leukemia. Many citrus-based foods include the flavonoid naringenin, which is commonly available. Dasatinib is a Cyp3a4, P-gp, and Bcrp1 substrate, which makes it sensitive to potential food-drug interactions. The concurrent use of naringenin may change the pharmacokinetics of dasatinib, which could result in adverse effects and toxicity. The present investigation examined the impact of naringenin on the pharmacokinetics interactions of DAS and proposes a possible interaction mechanism in Wistar rats. METHODS Rats were provided with a single oral dose of dasatinib (25 mg/kg) with or without naringenin pretreatment (150 mg/kg p.o. daily for 7 days, n = 6 in each group). Dasatinib was quantified in plasma by UHPLC MS/MS assay. Noncompartmental analysis was used to compute the pharmacokinetic parameters, and immunoblot was used to assess the protein expression in the hepatic and intestinal tissues. RESULTS Following 7 days of naringenin pretreatment, the plasma mean concentration of dasatinib was enhanced compared with without pretreatment. In rats that were pretreated with naringenin, the pharmacokinetics of the orally administered dasatinib (25 mg/kg) was shown to be significantly different from that of dasatinib given without pretreatment (p < 0.05). There was a significant enhancement in pharmacokinetic parameters elimination half-life (T1/2), time to maximum concentration ( Tmax), maximum concentration )Cmax), area under the concentration-time curve (AUC0-t), area under the moment curve (AUMC0-∞), and mean residence time (MRT) by 28.41%, 50%, 103.54%, 72.64%, 115.08%, and 15.19%, respectively (p < 0.05) and suppression in elimination rate constant (Kel), volume of distribution (Vd), and clearance (CL) by 21.09%, 31.13%, and 46.25%, respectively, in comparison with dasatinib alone group (p < 0.05). The enhancement in dasatinib bioavailability and systemic exposure resulted from the significant inhibition of Cyp3a2, Mdr1/P-gp, and Bcrp1 expression and suppression of the dasatinib hepatic and intestinal metabolism, which enhanced the rate of dasatinib absorption and decreased its elimination. CONCLUSION Concurrent use of naringenin-containing supplements, herbs, or foods with dasatinib may cause serious and potentially life-threatening drug interactions. Further studies are necessary to determine the clinical significance of these findings.

Abstract
In the past decade, numerous tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been introduced in the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia. Given the significant interpatient variability in TKIs pharmacokinetics, potential drug-drug interactions (DDIs) can greatly impact patient therapy. This review aims to discuss the pharmacokinetic characteristics of TKIs, specifically focusing on their absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion profiles. Additionally, it provides a comprehensive overview of the utilization of TKIs in special populations such as the elderly, children, and patients with liver or kidney dysfunction. We also highlight known or suspected DDIs between TKIs and other drugs, highlighting various clinically relevant interactions. Moreover, specific recommendations are provided to guide haemato-oncologists, oncologists, and clinical pharmacists in managing DDIs during TKI treatment in daily clinical practice.

Abstract
Introduction: The cytochrome P450 enzyme subfamilies, including CYP3A4 and CYP1A2, have a major role in metabolism of a range of drugs including several anti-cancer treatments. Many factors including environmental exposures, diet, diseaserelated systemic inflammation and certain genetic polymorphisms can impact the activity level of these enzymes. As a result, the net activity of each enzyme subfamily can vary widely between individuals and in the same individual over time. This variability has potential major implications for treatment efficacy and risk of drug toxicity, but currently no assays are available for routine use to guide clinical decision-making. Methods: To address this, a mass spectrometry-based method to measure activities of CYP3A4, CYP1A2 was adapted and tested in free-living participants. The assay results were compared with the predicted activity of each enzyme, based on a self-report tool capturing diet, medication, chronic disease state, and tobacco usage. In addition, a feasibility test was performed using a low-volume dried blood spots (DBS) on two different filter-paper supports, to determine if the same assay could be deployed without the need for repeated standard blood tests. Results: The results confirmed the methodology is safe and feasible to perform in free-living participants using midazolam and caffeine as test substrates for CYP3A4 and CYP1A2 respectively. Furthermore, though similar methods were previously shown to be compatible with the DBS format, the assay can also be performed successfully while incorporating glucuronidase treatment into the DBS approach. The measured CYP3A4 activity score varied 2.6-fold across participants and correlated with predicted activity score obtained with the self-report tool. The measured CYP1A2 activity varied 3.5-fold between participants but no correlation with predicted activity from the self-report tool was found. Discussion: The results confirm the wide variation in CYP activity between individuals and the important role of diet and other exposures in determining CYP3A4 activity. This methodology shows great potential and future cross-sectional and longitudinal studies using DBS are warranted to determine how best to use the assay results to guide drug treatments.

Abstract
A series of hybrid inhibitors, combining pharmacophores of known kinase inhibitors bearing anilino-purines (ruxolitinib, ibrutinib) and benzohydroxamate HDAC inhibitors (nexturastat A), were generated in the present study. The compounds have been synthesized and tested against solid and hematological tumor cell lines. Compounds 4d-f were the most promising in cytotoxicity assays (IC50 ≤ 50 nM) vs. hematological cells and displayed moderate activity in solid tumor models (EC50 = 9.3-21.7 μM). Compound 4d potently inhibited multiple kinase targets of interest for anticancer effects, including JAK2, JAK3, HDAC1, and HDAC6. Molecular dynamics simulations showed that 4d has stable interactions with HDAC and members of the JAK family, with differences in the hinge binding energy conferring selectivity for JAK3 and JAK2 over JAK1. The kinase inhibition profile of compounds 4d-f allows selective cytotoxicity, with minimal effects on non-tumorigenic cells. Moreover, these compounds have favorable pharmacokinetic profiles, with high stability in human liver microsomes (e.g., see t1/2: >120 min for 4f), low intrinsic clearance, and lack of significant inhibition of four major CYP450 isoforms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years, there have been great improvements in the therapy of renal cell carcinoma. Nevertheless, the therapeutic effect varies significantly from person to person. To discern the effective treatment for different populations, predictive molecular biomarkers in response to target, immunological, and combined therapies are widely studied. CONCLUSION This review summarized those studies from three perspectives (SNPs, mutation, and expression level) and listed the relationship between biomarkers and therapeutic effect, highlighting the great potential of predictive molecular biomarkers in metastatic RCC therapy. However, due to a series of reasons, most of these findings require further validation.

Abstract
Anti-angiogenesis therapy plays a vital role in the treatment of tumors, with anlotinib as its representative targeted drug. Anlotinib is a novel oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) with inhibitory effects on tumor growth tumor angiogenesis. In Phase III clinical trials, anlotinib demonstrated better overall survival and progression-free survival than placebo in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and was approved for the first time as a third-line treatment for refractory advanced NSCLC. Going far beyond that, anlotinib has shown encouraging results in a variety of malignancies, including medullary thyroid carcinoma, renal cell carcinoma, gastric cancer and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Nevertheless, anlotinib has been subject to some controversy in terms of adverse events due to its widespread use. In this review, the mechanism of action, pharmacokinetic characteristics, adverse reactions in clinical use and management of anlotinib were summarized.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Older patients (≥65 years old) make up the majority of the cancer population. Older patients seem to experience more adverse events (AEs) from protein kinase inhibitors (PKIs) in clinical practice. Yet they are underrepresented in clinical trials. We aimed to evaluate whether age-related safety differences were described at authorization of PKIs. Representation of older patients in registration studies was also evaluated. MATERIALS AND METHODS European Public Assessment Reports (EPARs) of PKIs authorized between 2010 and 2015 were evaluated for the description of age-related safety- and pharmacokinetic differences. The International Council for Harmonization of Technical Requirement for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) E7 guideline was applied to EPARs to assess the representation of older patients. Study results were presented descriptively. RESULTS Eighteen PKIs with 19 EPARs were analyzed. Age-related safety differences were described in 14 out of 19 EPARs, and age-related pharmacokinetic differences in 1 out of 19 EPARs. More than 100 older patients were included in half of the studies. Older patients were not excluded solely by age, although other inclusion and exclusion criteria negatively influenced enrollment of older patients. None of the PKIs met all criteria from the ICH E7 guideline. DISCUSSION Age-related safety differences are described for most PKIs. Older patients were underrepresented in PKI registration studies. Adequate representation of older patients in clinical trials for PKIs is vital, since they make up most of the cancer population.

Abstract
Dasatinib (DAS) is a narrow therapeutic index drug and novel oral multitarget inhibitor of tyrosine kinase and approved for the first-line therapy for chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and Philadelphia chromosome (Ph + ) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). DAS, a known potent substrate of cytochrome (CYP) 3A, P-glycoprotein (Pgp) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) and is subject to auto-induction. The dietary supplementation of sinapic acid (SA) or concomitant use of SA containing herbs/foods may alter the pharmacokinetics as well as pharmacodynamics of DAS, that may probably lead to potential interactions. Protein expression in rat hepatic and intestinal tissues, as well as the in vivo pharmacokinetics of DAS and the roles of CYP3 A2 and drug transporters Pgp-MDR1 and BCPR/ABCG2, suggested a likely interaction mechanism. The single dose of DAS (25 mg/kg) was given orally to rats with or without SA pretreatment (20 mg/kg p.o. per day for 7 days, n = 6). The plasma concentration of DAS was estimated by using Ultra-High-Performance Liquid Chromatography Mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS). The in vivo pharmacokinetics and protein expression study demonstrate that SA pretreatment has potential to alter the DAS pharmacokinetics. The increase in Cmax, AUC and AUMC proposes increase in bioavailability and rate of absorption via modulation of CYP3 A2, PgP-MDR1 and BCPR/ABCG2 protein expression. Thus, the concomitant use of SA alone or with DAS may cause serious life-threatening drug interactions.

Therapeutic drug monitoring to personalize dosing of imatinib, sunitinib, and pazopanib: A mixed methods study on barriers and facilitators. Cancer Med 2023; 12:21041-21056. [PMID: 37902257 PMCID: PMC10709747 DOI: 10.1002/cam4.6663] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2023] [Revised: 08/20/2023] [Accepted: 10/03/2023] [Indexed: 10/31/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Personalized dosing based on measurement of individual drug levels and adjusting the dose accordingly can improve efficacy and decrease unnecessary toxicity of oncological treatment. For imatinib, sunitinib, and pazopanib, this therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM)-guided dosing is, however, not routinely used, despite accumulating evidence favoring individualized dosing. Therefore, we aimed to identify and quantify (potential) barriers and facilitators in TDM-guided dosing for imatinib, sunitinib, and pazopanib. METHODS We performed a mixed methods study among all stakeholders involved: patients, healthcare professionals (HCPs), pharmaceutical companies, and health insurance companies. During the first qualitative part of this study, we performed semi-structured individual interviews and one focus group interview to identify all (potential) barriers and facilitators, and during the second quantitative part of this study, we used a web-based survey to quantify these findings. The interviews addressed the six domains of the implementation of change model of Grol and Wensing: (1) the innovation itself; (2) the HCP; (3) the patient; (4) social context; (5) organizational context; and (6) finances, law, and governance. RESULTS In the qualitative study, we interviewed 20 patients, 18 HCPs and 10 representatives of pharmaceutical and health insurance companies and identified 72 barriers and 90 facilitators. In the quantitative study, the survey was responded by 66 HCPs and 58 patients. Important barriers were on the domain of the HCP, such as a lack of experience with TDM (36.4%), on the domain of the patient, such as lack of awareness of TDM (39.7%), and the processing time for measurement and interpretation of the TDM result (40.9%) (organizational domain). Important facilitators were education of HCPs (95.5%), education of patients (87.9%) and facilitating an overview of when and where TDM measurements are being performed (86.4%). CONCLUSION We identified and quantified important barriers and facilitators for the implementation of TDM-guided dosing for imatinib, sunitinib, and pazopanib. Based on our results, the implementation strategy should mainly focus on educating both HCPs and patients and on the organizational aspect of TDM.

Abstract
Alternative protein-protein interactions (PPIs) arising from mutations or post-translational modifications (PTMs), termed phenotypic switching (PS), are critical for the transmission of alternative pathogenic signals and are particularly significant in cancer. In recent years, PPIs have emerged as promising targets for rational drug design, primarily because their high specificity facilitates targeting of disease-related signaling pathways. However, obstacles exist at the molecular level that arise from the properties of the interaction interfaces and the propensity of small molecule drugs to interact with more than one cleft surface. The difficulty in identifying small molecules that act as activators or inhibitors to counteract the biological effects of mutations raises issues that have not been encountered before. For example, small molecules can bind tightly but may not act as drugs or bind to multiple sites (interaction promiscuity). Another reason is the absence of significant clefts on protein surfaces; if a pocket is present, it may be too small, or its geometry may prevent binding. PS, which arises from oncogenic (alternative) signaling, causes drug resistance and forms the basis for the systemic robustness of tumors. In this review, the properties of PPI interfaces relevant to the design and development of targeting drugs are examined. In addition, the interactions between three tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) employed as drugs are discussed. Finally, potential novel targets of one of these drugs were identified in silico.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Choosing the most effective chemotherapeutic agent with safest side effect profile is a common challenge in cancer treatment. Although there are standardized chemotherapy protocols in place, protocol changes made after extensive clinical trials demonstrate significant improvement in the efficacy and tolerability of certain drugs. The pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and tolerance of anti-cancer medications are all highly individualized. A driving force behind these differences lies within a person's genetic makeup. RECENT FINDINGS Pharmacogenomics, the study of how an individual's genes impact the processing and action of a drug, can optimize drug responsiveness and reduce toxicities by creating a customized medication regimen. However, these differences are rarely considered in the initial determination of standardized chemotherapeutic protocols and treatment algorithms. Because pharmacoethnicity is influenced by both genetic and nongenetic variables, clinical data highlighting disparities in the frequency of polymorphisms between different ethnicities is steadily growing. Recent data suggests that ethnic variations in the expression of allelic variants may result in different pharmacokinetic properties of the anti-cancer medication. In this article, the clinical outcomes of various chemotherapy classes in patients of different ethnicities were reviewed. CONCLUSION Genetic and nongenetic variables contribute to the interindividual variability in response to chemotherapeutic drugs. Considering pharmacoethnicity in the initial determination of standard chemotherapeutic protocols and treatment algorithms can lead to better clinical outcomes of patients of different ethnicities.

Abstract
There are over 500 human kinases ranging from very well-studied to almost completely ignored. Kinases are tractable and implicated in many diseases, making them ideal targets for medicinal chemistry campaigns, but is it possible to discover a drug for each individual kinase? For every human kinase, we gathered data on their citation count, availability of chemical probes, approved and investigational drugs, PDB structures, and biochemical and cellular assays. Analysis of these factors highlights which kinase groups have a wealth of information available, and which groups still have room for progress. The data suggest a disproportionate focus on the more well characterized kinases while much of the kinome remains comparatively understudied. It is noteworthy that tool compounds for understudied kinases have already been developed, and there is still untapped potential for further development in this chemical space. Finally, this review discusses many of the different strategies employed to generate selectivity between kinases. Given the large volume of information available and the progress made over the past 20 years when it comes to drugging kinases, we believe it is possible to develop a tool compound for every human kinase. We hope this review will prove to be both a useful resource as well as inspire the discovery of a tool for every kinase.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth malignancy in terms of frequency and the fourth malignancy in terms of cancer-related death worldwide. Systemic therapy of advanced HCC has probably gone through the greatest wave of change in the last decade, with the introduction of several anti-angiogenic drugs and immune checkpoint inhibitors, able to significantly improve patients' prognosis. AREAS COVERED In this review, we summarize the pharmacokinetic characteristic of the antiangiogenic drugs currently approved for the treatment of HCC, from oral tyrosine kinase inhibitors (sorafenib, lenvatinib, regorafenib and cabozantinib) to monoclonal antibodies (bevacizumab and ramucirumab), focusing on the main aspects that differ among compounds from the same class, on factors that can exert an influence on pharmacokinetic parameters and the main issues that could limit their clinical use. EXPERT OPINION Anti-angiogenic drugs have different profiles in terms of bioavailability, metabolism, elimination and interindividual variability in their pharmacokinetics and effectiveness. More studies should be developed to address the intrinsic and extrinsic factors influencing pharmacokinetics parameters to improve the individual therapeutic response and, furthermore, to evaluate the benefit and the harm of systemic therapy for advanced HCC in selected patients with liver impairment.

Abstract
The present study was undertaken to synthesize PEGylated monomethoxy poly (ethylene glycol)-poly (ε-Caprolactone) (mPEG-PCL) block copolymer and formulate Erlotinib HCl-loaded mPEG-PCL nanoparticles for enhancing the bioavailability of the drug. Using the ring-opening polymerization technique, PEGylated mPEG-PCL block copolymer was synthesized, and the structure of the copolymer was characterized using FTIR, 1H-NMR, and DSC techniques. The solvent evaporation approach was used to effectively encapsulate Erlotinib HCl within block copolymeric nanoparticles. Erlotinib HCl-loaded mPEG-PCL nanoparticles had a mean particle size of 146.5 ± 2.37 nm and a zeta potential of -27.8 ± 2.77 mV. The nanoparticles had a percent entrapment efficiency of 80.78 ± 0.09%. The in vitro drug release of Erlotinib HCl-loaded copolymeric nanoparticles showed a slow and sustained release behavior which could be maintained for up to 72 h. The Korsmeyer-Peppas fitting findings indicated that the drug release process followed a non-Fickian diffusion mechanism. The pharmacokinetic (PK) behavior of the developed nanoformulation was studied in albino Wistar rats, and the relative bioavailability of the optimized NP formulation given by intravenous route was found to be 187.33%. The PK data suggested that Erlotinib HCl-loaded mPEG-PCL copolymeric nanoparticles can dramatically alter the PK behavior of Erlotinib HCl and greatly improve the drug's bioavailability by as much as three times when compared to the oral formulation. As a result, it was established that the block copolymeric nanoparticles have promise for the effective encapsulation of Erlotinib HCL for an injectable formulation with increased bioavailability.

Abstract
(1) Introduction: Pharmacokinetic boosting of kinase inhibitors can be a strategy to enhance drug exposure and to reduce dose and associated treatment costs. Most kinase inhibitors are predominantly metabolized by CYP3A4, enabling boosting using CYP3A4 inhibition. Kinase inhibitors with food enhanced absorption can be boosted using food optimized intake schedules. The aim of this narrative review is to provide answers to the following questions: Which different boosting strategies can be useful in boosting kinase inhibitors? Which kinase inhibitors are potential candidates for either CYP3A4 or food boosting? Which clinical studies on CYP3A4 or food boosting have been published or are ongoing? (2) Methods: PubMed was searched for boosting studies of kinase inhibitors. (3) Results/Discussion: This review describes 13 studies on exposure boosting of kinase inhibitors. Boosting strategies included cobicistat, ritonavir, itraconazole, ketoconazole, posaconazole, grapefruit juice and food. Clinical trial design for conducting pharmacokinetic boosting trials and risk management is discussed. (4) Conclusion: Pharmacokinetic boosting of kinase inhibitors is a promising, rapidly evolving and already partly proven strategy to increase drug exposure and to potentially reduce treatment costs. Therapeutic drug monitoring can be of added value in guiding boosted regimens.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In the randomized double-blind placebo-controlled CounterCOVID study, oral imatinib treatment conferred a positive clinical outcome and a signal for reduced mortality in COVID-19 patients. High concentrations of alpha-1 acid glycoprotein (AAG) were observed in these patients and were associated with increased total imatinib concentrations. AIMS This post-hoc study aimed to compare the difference in exposure following oral imatinib administration in COVID-19 patients to cancer patients and assess assocations between pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters and pharmacodynamic (PD) outcomes of imatinib in COVID-19 patients. We hypothesize that a relatively higher drug exposure of imatinib in severe COVID-19 patients leads to improved pharmacodynamic outcome parameters. METHODS 648 total concentration plasma samples obtained from 168 COVID-19 patients were compared to 475 samples of 105 cancer patients, using an AAG-binding model. Total trough concentration at steady state (Cttrough) and total average area under the concentration-time curve (AUCtave) were associated with ratio between partial oxygen pressure and fraction of inspired oxygen (P/F), WHO ordinal scale (WHO-score) and liberation of oxygen supplementation (O2lib). Linear regression, linear mixed effects models and time-to-event analysis were adjusted for possible confounders. RESULTS AUCtave and Cttrough were respectively 2.21-fold (95%CI 2.07-2.37) and 1.53-fold (95%CI 1.44-1.63) lower for cancer compared to COVID-19 patients. Cttrough, not AUCtave, associated significantly with P/F (β=-19,64; p-value=0.014) and O2lib (HR 0.78; p-value= 0.032), after adjusting for sex, age, neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio, dexamethasone concomitant treatment, AAG and baseline P/F-and WHO-score. Cttrough, but not AUCtave associated significantly with WHO-score. These results suggest an inverse relationship between PK-parameters, Cttrough and AUCtave, and PD outcomes. CONCLUSION COVID-19 patients exhibit higher total imatinib exposure compared to cancer patients, attributed to differences in plasma protein concentrations. Higher imatinib exposure in COVID-19 patients did not associate with improved clinical outcomes. Cttrough and AUCtave inversely associated with some PD-outcomes, which may be biased by disease course, variability in metabolic rate and protein binding. Therefore, additional PKPD analyses into unbound imatinib and its main metabolite may better explain exposure-response.

Clinical validation and assessment of feasibility of volumetric absorptive microsampling (VAMS) for monitoring of nilotinib, cabozantinib, dabrafenib, trametinib, and ruxolitinib. J Pharm Biomed Anal 2023; 228:115311. [PMID: 36841066 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpba.2023.115311] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2022] [Revised: 02/10/2023] [Accepted: 02/21/2023] [Indexed: 02/24/2023]
Abstract
Volumetric absorptive microsampling (VAMS) has emerged as a minimally invasive alternative to conventional sampling. However, the applicability of VAMS must be investigated clinically. Therefore, the feasibility of at-home sampling was investigated for the kinase inhibitors nilotinib, cabozantinib, dabrafenib, trametinib and ruxolitinib and evaluated regarding the acceptance of at-home microsampling, sample quality of at-home VAMS and incurred sample stability. In addition, clinical validation including three different approaches for serum level predictions was performed. For this purpose, VAMS and reference serum samples were collected simultaneously. Conversion of VAMS to serum concentration was based either on a linear regression model, a hematocrit-dependent formula, or using a correction factor. During the study period 591 VAMS were collected from a total of 59 patients. The percentage of patients who agreed to perform VAMS at home ranged from 50.0 % to 84.6 % depending on the compound. 93.1 % of at-home VAMS were collected correctly. Regarding the drug stability in dried capillary blood, no stability issues were detected between on-site and at-home VAMS. Linear regression showed a strong correlation between VAMS and reference serum concentrations for nilotinib, cabozantinib, dabrafenib and ruxolitinib (r 0.9427 - 0.9674) and a moderate correlation for trametinib (r 0.5811). For clinical validation, the acceptance criteria were met for all three approaches for three of the five kinase inhibitors. Predictive performance was not improved by using individual hematocrit instead of population hematocrit and was largely independent of conversion model. In conclusion, VAMS at-home has been shown to be feasible for use in routine clinical care and serum values could be predicted based on the measured VAMS concentration for nilotinib, cabozantinib, and dabrafenib.

Abstract
Dasatinib (DAS), a narrow-therapeutic index drug, Bcr-Abl, and Src family kinases multitarget inhibitor have been approved for chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and Ph-positive acute lymphocytic leukemia (Ph+ ALL). Apigenin (APG) has a long history of human usage in food, herbs, health supplements, and traditional medicine, and it poses low risk of damage. The concomitant use of APG containing herbs/foods and traditional medicine may alter the pharmacokinetics of DAS, that probably lead to possible herb-drug interactions. The pharmacokinetic interaction of APG pretreatment with DAS in rat plasma following single and co-oral dosing was successfully deliberated using the UPLC-MS/MS method. The in vivo pharmacokinetics and protein expression of CYP3A2, Pgp-MDR1, and BCPR/ABCG2 demonstrate that APG pretreatment has potential to drastically changed the DAS pharmacokinetics where escalation in the Cmax, AUC(0-t), AUMC(0-inf_obs), T1/2, Tmax, and MRT and reduction in Kel, Vd, and Cl significantly in rats pretreated with APG 40 mg/kg, thus escalating systemic bioavailability and increasing the rate of absorption via modulation of CYP3A2, Pgp-MDR1, and BCPR/ABCG2 protein expression. Therefore, the concomitant consumption of APG containing food or traditional herb with DAS may cause serious life-threatening drug interactions and more systematic clinical study on herb-drug interactions is required, as well as adequate regulation in herbal safety and efficacy.

Abstract
Currently, the use of targeted drugs such as tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) plays an important role in clinical therapy. As the number of approved TKIs continues to increase, existing analysis methods will not be able to meet the growing needs, and will hamper the development of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of TKIs. Based on LC-MS/MS technology, this study tends to develop and validate a multi-component analysis method for simultaneous determination of the concentrations of 39 TKIs in plasma. Spiked plasma was blended with isotope labelled internal standards, and injected into the LC-MS/MS system after protein precipitation by acetonitrile. Chromatographic separation was achieved using an ODS-4 column with gradient elution of formic acid/water (1:1000; v/v) and acetonitrile. Analytes detection was conducted in positive ionisation mode using MRM. The total run time was 8 min. The method validation was conducted by assessing the following parameters: selectivity, linearity and the lower limit of qualification, accuracy and precision, stability, matrix effect and recovery. The concentrations of 39 TKIs showed good linearity within the range of their respective standard curves in plasma, the accuracy of all quality control samples ranged from 85.9% to 114.1%, and the precision was lower than 13.3%. The extraction recovery ranged from 92.6% to 114.7%, and the matrix effect of plasma was lower than 11.3%. This new method was successfully developed, can be used for the determination of drug concentrations in multiple patients with different kinds of TKIs, and will therefore be suitable for TDM of 39 TKIs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION FLT3 inhibitors (FLT3i) are drugs in which there is limited experience and not yet enough information on the mechanisms of absorption, transport, and elimination; but especially on the potential drug-drug interactions (DDIs). There are therefore risks in the management of FLT3i DDIs (i.e. sorafenib, ponatinib, crenolanib, midostaurin, quizartinib, and gilteritinib) and ignoring them can compromise therapeutic success in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treatment, in complex patients and secondary pathologies. AREAS COVERED This review summarizes the DDIs of FLT3i with P-glycoprotein (P-gp), breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), organic anion transporting (OAT), organic cationic transporting (OCT), cytochrome P450 (CYP) subunits, and other minor metabolic/transport pathways. EMBASE, PubMed, the Cochrane Central Register and the Web of Science were searched. The last literature search was performed on the 14 February 2022. EXPERT OPINION FLT3i will be combined with other therapeutic agents (supportive care, doublet, or triplet therapy) and in different clinical settings, which means a greater chance of controlling and even eradicating the disease effectively, but also an increased risk to patients due to potential DDIs. Healthcare professionals should be aware of the potential interactions that may occur and be vigilant in monitoring those patients who are receiving any potentially interacting drug.

Abstract
PURPOSE The introduction of COVID-19 therapies containing ritonavir has markedly expanded the scope of use for this medicine. As a strong cytochrome P450 3A4 inhibitor, the use of ritonavir is associated with a high drug interaction risk. There are currently no data to inform clinician regarding the likely magnitude and duration of interaction between ritonavir-containing COVID-19 therapies and small-molecule kinase inhibitors (KIs) in patients with cancer. METHODS Physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling was used to conduct virtual clinical trials with a parallel group study design in the presence and absence of ritonavir (100 mg twice daily for 5 days). The magnitude and time course of changes in KI exposure when coadministered with ritonavir was evaluated as the primary outcome. RESULTS Dosing of ritonavir resulted in a > 2-fold increase in steady-state area under the plasma concentration-time curve and maximal concentration for six of the 10 KIs. When the KI was coadministered with ritonavir, dose reductions to between 10% and 75% of the original dose were required to achieve an area under the plasma concentration-time curve within 1.25-fold of the value in the absence of ritonavir. CONCLUSION To our knowledge, this study provides the first data to assist clinicians' understanding of the drug interaction risk associated with administering ritonavir-containing COVID-19 therapies to patients with cancer who are currently being treated with KIs. These data may support clinicians to make more informed dosing decisions for patients with cancer undergoing treatment with KIs who require treatment with ritonavir-containing COVID-19 antiviral therapies.

Abstract
Despite remarkable advances over the past several decades, many therapeutic nanomaterials fail to overcome major in vivo delivery barriers. Controlling immunogenicity, optimizing biodistribution, and engineering environmental responsiveness are key outstanding delivery problems for most nanotherapeutics. However, notable exceptions exist including some lipid and polymeric nanoparticles, some virus-based nanoparticles, and nanoparticle vaccines where immunogenicity is desired. Self-assembling protein nanoparticles offer a powerful blend of modularity and precise designability to the field, and have the potential to solve many of the major barriers to delivery. In this review, we provide a brief overview of key designable features of protein nanoparticles and their implications for therapeutic delivery applications. We anticipate that protein nanoparticles will rapidly grow in their prevalence and impact as clinically relevant delivery platforms.

Methods Cross-sectional analysis of clinical trials with TDM as intervention that were registered on WHO International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (ICTRP) or ClinicalTrials.gov. Relevant trial entries registered before and on March 2nd, 2022 were downloaded, deduplicated, and reviewed. Recruit country, monetary source, start years, study design, medical conditions, involved drugs, outcome measure, and subject information were extracted and analyzed. Results Overall, 173 clinical trials were included in this study. Majority of the trials were conducted in several economically prosperous countries. The earliest initiated trials dates back to 2002. Most of the trials were funded by hospitals (36.4%). A higher proportion of trials were conducted within one country (86.1%), as phase Ⅳ (34.1%) interventional study (82.7%), randomized (52.6%), parallel assignment (53.8%) and open label (67.0%). The most concerned medical condition were infectious or parasitic disease and neoplasms, with the most monitored drugs were immunosuppressants and β-lactam antibacterials. Most of the trials enroll no more than 50 subjects (30.6%), with both gender (95.4%), and adults (67.0%). Conclusion The trials were mainly conducted in several economically prosperous countries. The number of registered trials had gradually increased during the past years. Novel biological drugs have increasingly become the research hotspot. We expect that with abundant financial support, more high-quality large-scale, multicenter randomized clinical trials (RCTs) are designed and implemented to promote the development of TDM in the future.

Abstract
Understanding cancer biology and the development of novel agents for cancer treatment has always been the goal of cancer researchers. However, the research and development of new drugs is hindered by its long development time, exorbitant cost, high regulatory hurdles, and staggering failure rates. Given the challenges involved drug development for cancer therapies, alternative strategies, in particular the repurposing of 'old' drugs that have been approved for other indications, are attractive. Itraconazole is an FDA-approved anti-fungal drug of the triazole class, and has been used clinically for more than 30 years. Recent drug repurposing screens revealed itraconazole exerts anti-cancer activity via inhibiting angiogenesis and multiple oncogenic signaling pathways. To explore the potential utilization of itraconazole in different types of malignancies, we retrieved the published literature relating to itraconazole in cancer and reviewed the mechanisms of itraconazole in preclinical and clinical cancer studies. Current research predicts the hedgehog signaling pathway as the main target by which itraconazole inhibits a variety of solid and hematological cancers. As clinical trial results become available, itraconazole could emerge as a new antitumor drug that can be used in combination with first-line antitumor drugs.

Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms231810382. [PMID: 36142299 PMCID: PMC9499412 DOI: 10.3390/ijms231810382] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2022] [Revised: 09/02/2022] [Accepted: 09/05/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Both the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) have been implicated in the development of cancers, and the increased expression of both receptors has been observed in esophageal cancer. However, the tyrosine kinase inhibitors of both receptors have thus far failed to provide clinical benefits for esophageal cancer patients. Studies have confirmed the complicated crosstalks that exist between the EGFR and IGF-1R pathways. The EGFR and IGF-1R signals act as mutual compensation pathways, thereby conveying resistance to EGFR or IGF-1R inhibitors when used alone. This study evaluated the antitumor efficacy of the EGFR/HER2 inhibitors, gefitinib and lapatinib, in combination with the IGF-1R inhibitor, linsitinib, on the esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Gefitinib or lapatinib, in combination with linsitinib, synergistically inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of ESCC cells, caused significant cell cycle arrest, and induced marked cell apoptosis. Their combination demonstrated stronger inhibition on the activation of EGFR, HER2, and IGF-1R as well as the downstream signaling molecules. In vivo, the addition of linsitinib to gefitinib or lapatinib also potentiated the inhibition effects on the growth of xenografts. Our results suggest the next clinical exploration of the combination of gefitinib or lapatinib with linsitinib in the treatment of ESCC patients.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYP450s) exert mighty catalytic actions in cellular metabolism and detoxication, which play pivotal roles in cell fate determination. Preliminary data shows differential expression levels of CYP27C1, one of the "orphan P450s" in human lung cancer cell lines. Here, we study the functions of CYP27C1 in lung cancer progression and drug endurance, and explore its potential to be a diagnostic and therapeutic target for lung cancer management. Quantitative real-time PCR and immunoblot assays were conducted to estimate the transcription and protein expression level of CYP27C1 in human lung cancer cell lines, which was relatively higher in A549 and H1975 cells, but was lower in H460 cells. Stable CYP27C1-knockdown A549 and H1975 cell lines were established, in which these cells showed enhancement in cell proliferation, colony formation, and migration. In addition, aberrant IGF-1R/Akt/p53 signal transduction was also detected in stable CYP27C1-knockdown human lung cancer cells, which exhibited greater tolerance towards the treatments of anticancer agents (including vinorelbine, picropodophyllin, pacritinib, and SKLB610). This work, for the first time, reveals that CYP27C1 impacts lung cancer cell development by participating in the regulation of the IGF-1R/Akt/p53 signaling pathway, and the level of CYP27C1 plays indispensable roles in dictating the cellular sensitivity towards multiple anticancer agents.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) represents a common malignancy, and mechanisms of acquired sorafenib resistance during the treatment of HCC patients remain elusive. The present study performed integrated bioinformatics analysis and explored the potential action of heme oxygenase 1 (HMOX1) in sorafenib-resistant HCC cells. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of the sorafenib-resistant group as compared to the sorafenib-sensitive group from GSE140202 and GSE143233 were extracted. Fifty common DEGs between GSE140202 and GSE143233 were extracted. Ten hub genes were identified from the protein-protein interaction network based on common DEGs. Experimental results revealed the upregulation of HMOX1 in sorafenib-resistant HCC cells. HMOX1 silence promoted the sensitivity to sorafenib in sorafenib-resistant HCC cells; overexpression of HMOX1 attenuated the sensitivity. In addition, HMOX1 silence downregulated the mRNA expression of ABC transporters in sorafenib-resistant HCC cells, while HMOX1 overexpression upregulated mRNA expression of ABC transporter expression in HCC cells. Further analysis also revealed that high expression of HMOX1 was associated with shorter OS and DSS in HCC patients. In conclusion, our analysis identified ten hub genes associated with sorafenib resistance in HCC. Further validation studies demonstrated that HMOX1 promoted sorafenib resistance of HCC cells via modulating ABC transporter expression.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The main goal of treatment in cancer patients is to achieve the highest therapeutic effectiveness with the least iatrogenic toxicity. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are anticancer oral agents, usually administered at fixed doses, which present high inter- and intra-individual variability due to their pharmacokinetic characteristics. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) can be used to optimize the use of several types of medication. OBJECTIVE We evaluated the use of TDM of TKIs in routine clinical practice through studying the variability in exposure to erlotinib, imatinib, lapatinib, and sorafenib and dose adjustment. MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a retrospective analytical study involving patients who received treatment with TKIs, guided by TDM and with subsequent recommendation of dose adjustment. The quantification of the plasma levels of the different drugs was performed using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The Clinical Research Ethics Committee of the Hospital Quirónsalud Torrevieja approved this study. RESULTS The inter-individual variability in the first cycle and in the last monitored cycle was 46.2% and 44.0% for erlotinib, 48.9 and 50.8% for imatinib, 60.7% and 56.0% for lapatinib and 89.7% and 72.5% for sorafenib. Relationships between exposure and baseline characteristics for erlotinib, imatinib, lapatinib and sorafenib were not statistically significant for any of the variables evaluated (weight, height, body surface area (BSA), age and sex). Relationships between height (p = 0.021) and BSA (p = 0.022) were statistically significant for sorafenib. No significant relationships were observed between Ctrough and progression-free survival (PFS) or overall survival (OS) for any drug, except in the case of sunitinib (correlation between Ctrough and PFS p = 0.023) in the exposure-efficacy analysis. CONCLUSIONS Erlotinib, imatinib, lapatinib and sorafenib show large inter-individual variability in exposure. TDM entails a significant improvement in exposure and enables more effective and safe use of TKIs in routine clinical practice.

Abstract
Gefitinib and erlotinib are the first-line tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer. However, co-administration of either drug with proton pump inhibitors (PPI) or histamine-2 receptor antagonists (H2RA) may reduce TKI's bioavailability. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the effects of these drug-drug interactions. We surveyed nationwide population-based databases between Jan 1, 2010, and Dec 30, 2018. Newly diagnosed patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma who received first-line gefitinib or erlotinib were identified. Effects on overall survival (OS) and time to next treatment (TTNT) association between PPIs or H2RAs and co-administrated gefitinib or erlotinib were evaluated. PPIs or H2RAs users were defined if the period overlapped with TKIs by ≥ 20%. A total of 4340 gefitinib and 1635 erlotinib users were included. PPI group had the shortest median OS and TTNT compared to the H2RA and non-user groups (in gefitinib cohort: OS: 14.35 vs. 17.67 vs. 21.87 months; P < 0.0001, TTNT: 8.47 vs. 10.78 vs. 10.33 months; P < 0.0001); (in erlotinib cohort: OS: 16.97 vs. 20.07 vs. 23.92 months; P < 0.0001, TTNT: 9.06 vs. 11.85 vs. 10.90 months; P = 0.0808). Compared with the non-user group, the adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) of the PPI group in the gefitinib was 1.58 on OS (95% CI 1.42-1.76), 1.37 on TTNT (95% CI 1.24-1.52); in the erlotinib was 1.54 on OS (95% CI 1.30-1.82) and 1.19 on TTNT (95% CI 1.01-1.39). Concurrent use of PPIs with first-line gefitinib or erlotinib therapy was associated with a worse OS and TTNT in patients with lung adenocarcinoma harboring EGFR mutations.

Abstract
Imatinib (IM), a milestone drug used in the field of molecular targeted therapy, has been reported to cause serious adverse liver effects, including liver failure and even death. Immune-mediated injury and mitochondrial dysfunction are involved in drug-induced liver injury. However, the mechanism of IM-induced hepatotoxicity remains unclear and warrants further study. In our study, Sprague Dawley rats were administered IM by gavage with 50 mg/kg body weight (BW) once daily for 10 days. Drug-induced liver injury accompanied by inflammatory infiltration was observed in rats following IM exposure, and the expression of NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome-related proteins was significantly increased compared with that of the control. HepG2 cells were exposed to 0-100 μM IM for 24 h. The results showed that IM decreased cell viability in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, IM induced a state of obvious oxidative stress and activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) in cells, which resulted in the activation of NLRP3 inflammasomes, including caspase 1 cleavage and IL-1β release. These results were significantly reduced after the use of the antioxidants N-acetyl-l-cysteine or the NF-κB inhibitor pyrrolidine di-thio-carbamate. Furthermore, NLRP3 knockdown significantly reduced the release of inflammatory cytokines and improved cell viability. In summary, our data demonstrated that oxidative stress and NLRP3 inflammasome activation are involved in the process of IM-induced hepatotoxicity. The results of this study provide a reference for the prevention and treatment of IM-induced hepatotoxicity.

Abstract
Sorafenib (SOR) is a multikinase inhibitor with a mild activity against colorectal cancer cells due to multi-drug resistance mechanisms. Potentiated SOR activity was expected upon combination with some ginger derived compounds due to their interference with intracellular drug metabolism. Studying such combination necessitates the development of a sensitive validated LC-MS/MS method for the determination of intra and extracellular concentration of SOR and its N-oxide metabolite (SNX) in colorectal cancer cells. SOR, SNX and the internal standard (diclofenac sodium) were efficiently separated on Eclipse plus C18 column (3.0 ×150 mm, 5 µm) using isocratic elution with acetonitrile and 0.01 M ammonium formate aqueous solution containing 0.1% formic acid (69:31, v/v). Sample pretreatment using solid phase extraction was optimized and the mean percent recoveries were more than 97.01% for both analytes. Detection was conducted at positive ion multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode and the monitored mass transitions were 465.2 → 252.2 for SOR and 481.1 → 286.0 for SNX. The method was linear over the range 0.25 - 200.00 ng/mL (r2 ≥ 0.9992) for SOR and 0.10 - 125.00 ng/mL (r2 ≥ 0.9990) for SNX in both intra and extracellular matrices. The lower limits of quantification (LLOQ) were 0.25 and 0.10 ng/mL for SOR and SNX, respectively. Accuracies were within 94.25 - 109.45% and precision CV values did not exceed 7.63%. The method was able to monitor the cellular uptake and entrapment of both analytes and to prove the positive effect of the ginger derived compounds on SOR activity.
