[PMID: 39128361 DOI: 10.1016/j.bmc.2024.117870] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2024] [Revised: 08/01/2024] [Accepted: 08/05/2024] [Indexed: 08/13/2024]
Abstract
The dysregulation of kinases has emerged as a major class of targets for anticancer drug discovery given its node roles in the etiology of tumorigenesis, progression, invasion, and metastasis of malignancies, which is validated by the FDA approval of 28 small molecule kinase inhibitor (SMKI) drugs for cancer treatment at the end of 2015. While the preclinical and clinical data of these drugs are widely presented, it is highly essential to give an updated review on the medical indications, design principles and binding modes of these anti-tumor SMKIs approved by the FDA to offer insights for the future development of SMKIs with specific efficacy and safety.

Attwa MW, Abdelhameed AS, Kadi AA. Characterization of the in vitro metabolic profile of nazartinib in HLMs using UPLC-MS/MS method: In silico metabolic lability and DEREK structural alerts screening using StarDrop software. Heliyon 2024; 10:e34109. [PMID: 39091946 PMCID: PMC11292529 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e34109] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2024] [Revised: 06/30/2024] [Accepted: 07/03/2024] [Indexed: 08/04/2024] Open
Abstract
The orally given, irreversible, third-generation inhibitor of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), known as Nazartinib (EGF816), is now undergoing investigation in Phase II clinical trials conducted by Novartis for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. The primary aim of the current research was to establish a rapid, specific, environmentally friendly, and highly versatile UPLC-MS/MS methodology for the determination of nazartinib (NZT) levels in human liver microsomes (HLMs). Subsequently, same approach was used to examine the metabolic stability of NZT. The UPLC-MS/MS method employed in HLMs was validated as stated in the bioanalytical method validation criteria outlined by the US- FDA. The evaluation of the metabolic stability of NZT and the identification of potentially structural alarms were performed using the StarDrop software package that includes the P450 and DEREK software. The calibration curve for NZT showed a linearity in the range from 1 to 3000 ng/mL. The inter-day accuracy and precision exhibited a range of values between -4.33 % and 4.43 %, whereas the intra-day accuracy and precision shown a range of values between -2.78 % and 7.10 %. The sensitivity of the developed approach was verified through the determination of a LLOQ of 0.39 ng/mL. The intrinsic clearance and in vitro half-life of NZT were assessed to be 46.48 mL/min/kg and 17.44 min, respectively. In our preceding inquiry, we have effectively discerned the bioactivation center, denoted by the carbon atom between the unsaturated conjugated system and aliphatic linear tertiary amine. In the context of computational software, making minor adjustments or substituting the dimethylamino-butenoyl moiety throughout the drug design process may increase the metabolic stability and safety properties of new synthesized derivatives. The efficiency of utilizing different in silico software approaches to conserve resources and reduce effort was proved by the outcomes attained from in vitro incubation experiments and the use of NZT in silico software.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to identify the impact of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) T790M mutations on clinical characteristics and prognosis. METHODS Retrospective analyses were conducted on the differences on clinicopathological features and prognosis between primary and acquired T790M mutations. Subgroup analyses were performed for primary T790M coexisting with other mutations. RESULTS Patients with primary T790M mutations showed a 60.53% (23/38) incidence of concurrent L858R mutations, 18.42% (7/38) for 19del mutations and a 21.05% (8/38) occurrence of brain metastases. Conversely, those with acquired T790M mutations demonstrated respective frequencies of 36.53% (61/167), 58.68% (98/167) and 44.31% (74/167), with all comparisons yielding p < 0.05. The median overall survival differed significantly between the two groups, with a duration of 33 months for patients with primary T790M mutations as compared to 48 months for those with acquired mutations (p = 0.030). Notably, among patients with L858R co-mutations, when treated with third-generation EGFR-TKIs, those with acquired T790M mutations experienced a significantly prolonged median time to treatment failure compared to those with primary mutations (17 months vs. 9 months, p = 0.009). CONCLUSION Patients with primary T790M have unique molecular features and had worse prognosis compared with acquired T790M. Resistance to third-generation EGFR-TKIs seems to be associated with the presence of EGFR co-mutations.

Abstract
To combat multifactorial refractory diseases, such as cancer, cardiovascular, and neurodegenerative diseases, multitarget drugs have become an emerging area of research aimed at 'synthetic lethality' (SL) relationships associated with drug-resistance mechanisms. In this review, we discuss the in silico design of dual and triple-targeted ligands, strategies by which specific 'warhead' groups are incorporated into a parent compound or scaffold with primary inhibitory activity against one target to develop one small molecule that inhibits two or three molecular targets in an effort to increase potency against multifactorial diseases. We also discuss the analytical exploration of structure-activity relationships (SARs), physicochemical properties, polypharmacology, scaffold feature extraction of US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved multikinase inhibitors (MKIs), and updates regarding the clinical status of dual-targeted chemotypes.

Abstract
Most patients with lung cancer are smokers and are of advanced age. They are therefore at high risk of having age- and lifestyle-related comorbidities. These comorbidities are subject to treatment or even polypharmacy. There is growing evidence of a link between lung cancer, comorbidities and medications. The relationships between these entities are complex. The presence of comorbidities and their treatments influence the time of cancer diagnosis, as well as the diagnostic and treatment strategy. On the other hand, cancer treatment may have an impact on the patient's comorbidities such as renal failure, pneumonitis or endocrinopathies. This review highlights how some comorbidities may have an impact on lung cancer presentation and may require treatment adjustments. Reciprocal influences between the treatment of comorbidities and anticancer therapy will also be discussed.

Non-small cell lung cancer cells with uncommon EGFR exon 19delins variants respond poorly to third-generation EGFR inhibitors. Transl Oncol 2024; 39:101834. [PMID: 38006760 PMCID: PMC10728704 DOI: 10.1016/j.tranon.2023.101834] [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: 07/14/2023] [Revised: 11/09/2023] [Accepted: 11/15/2023] [Indexed: 11/27/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study compared the clinical efficacy of first-, second-, and third-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in previously untreated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients harboring uncommon epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 19delins variants. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the clinical outcomes of NSCLC patients with EGFR exon 19delins mutations who were treated with third- and first-generation EGFR TKIs. In vitro and in vivo studies were conducted to verify the sensitivity of these mutations to distinct generations of TKIs. Molecular simulation was used to investigate the structural characteristics of the EGFR mutant molecules. RESULTS In a multicenter cohort of 1,526 patients, 37 (2.4 %) had uncommon EGFR 19delins mutations. Twenty-four patients were treated with first-generation EGFR TKIs, and third-generation TKIs were administered to ten patients as frontline therapy. Patients carrying EGFR exon 19delins mutations who were given third-generation TKIs exhibited comparatively shorter progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in relation to those who received first-generation EGFR inhibitors; median PFS: 6.9 months vs. 19.1 months (p < 0.001), Median OS: 19.1 months vs. 32.6 months (p < 0.001). In vivo and in vitro studies revealed that uncommon EGFR 19delins variants exhibit limited sensitivity to third-generation EGFR inhibitors in contrast to first- and second-generation EGFR inhibitors. The molecular binding affinity of third-generation EGFR TKIs toward uncommon EGFR 19delins mutations was less than that of first- and second-generation EGFR inhibitors. CONCLUSIONS Uncommon EGFR 19delins variants respond poorly to third-generation EGFR inhibitors in NSCLC. Uncommon EGFR 19delins mutations may serve as an unfavorable predictive factor for the efficacy of third-generation EGFR TKI therapy, offering potential guidance for future clinical decision-making.

Abstract
Background Osimertinib, as third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI), is the first-line treatment approved to treat advanced T790M mutation-positive tumors. Triazole antifungals are therapeutic drugs for cancer patients to reduce the risk of opportunistic fungal infections. Our objective was to investigate whether three triazole antifungals (voriconazole, itraconazole, and fluconazole) could change the pharmacokinetics of osimertinib in rats. Methods The adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups (n = 6): control (0.3% CMC-Na), and voriconazole (20 mg/kg), itraconazole (20 mg/kg), or fluconazole (20 mg/kg) combined with osimertinib (10 mg/kg) group. Tail vein blood samples were collected into heparin tubes at various time points within 0-48 h after osimertinib administration. Osimrtinib's plasma concentration was detected using HPLC-MS/MS system equipped with a Waters XBridge C18 column, with the mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and 0.2% formic acid water at a flow rate of 0.5 mL/min. Results Co-administration with voriconazole or fluconazole increased the Cmax of osimertinib by 58.04% and 53.45%, respectively; the AUC0-t increased by 62.56% and 100.98%, respectively. However, when co-administered with itraconazole, the Cmax and AUC0-t of osimertinib only increased by 13.91% and 34.80%, respectively. Conclusions Our results revealed that the pharmacokinetics of osimertinib were significantly changed by voriconazole and fluconazole in rats, whereas it was slightly affected by itraconazole. This work will contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the pharmacokinetic properties of osimertinib when co-administered with triazole antifungals.

Abstract
The most common oncogenic driver in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene mutations that occur more frequently among Asians (30%-50%) as opposed to Caucasians (10%-15%). Lung cancer is one of the most prevalent cancers in India, with a reported adenocarcinoma positivity ranging between 26.1% and 86.9% in NSCLC patients. The prevalence of EGFR mutations in adenocarcinoma patients (36.9%) in India is higher than that of Caucasian patients and lower than that of East Asian patients. The exon 19 deletion (Ex19del) is more common than exon 21 L858R mutations in Indian patients with NSCLC. Studies have shown that the clinical behaviour of patients with advanced NSCLC differs between EGFR Ex19del and exon 21 L858R mutation status. In this study, we investigated the differences in clinicopathological features and survival outcomes after first line and second-line treatment with EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR TKIs) in NSCLC patients with Ex19del and exon 21 L858R EGFR mutation status. This study also focuses on the role and potential benefits of dacomitinib, a second-generation irreversible EGFR TKI, in patients with Ex19del and exon 21 L858R EGFR mutation-positive advanced NSCLC in Indian settings.

Abstract
Non-destructive fluorophore diffusion across cell membranes to provide an unbiased fluorescence intensity readout is critical for quantitative imaging applications in live cells and tissues. Commercially available small-molecule fluorophores have been engineered for biological compatibility, imparting high water solubility by modifying rhodamine and cyanine dye scaffolds with multiple sulfonate groups. The resulting net negative charge, however, often renders these fluorophores cell-membrane-impermeant. Here we report the design and development of our biologically compatible, water-soluble and cell-membrane-permeable fluorophores, termed OregonFluor (ORFluor). By adapting previously established ratiometric imaging methodology using bio-affinity agents, it is now possible to use small-molecule ORFluor-labelled therapeutic inhibitors to quantitatively visualize their intracellular distribution and protein target-specific binding, providing a chemical toolkit for quantifying drug target availability in live cells and tissues.

Bhargave H, Nijhawan H, Yadav KS. PEGylated Erlotinib HCl Injectable Nanoformulation for Improved Bioavailability. AAPS PharmSciTech 2023; 24:101. [PMID: 37038015 DOI: 10.1208/s12249-023-02560-5] [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: 06/22/2022] [Accepted: 03/27/2023] [Indexed: 04/12/2023] Open
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.

Discovery of Novel EGFR Inhibitor Targeting Wild-Type and Mutant Forms of EGFR: In Silico and In Vitro Study. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28073014. [PMID: 37049777 PMCID: PMC10096398 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28073014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2023] [Revised: 03/25/2023] [Accepted: 03/26/2023] [Indexed: 03/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Targeting L858R/T790M and L858R/T790M/C797S mutant EGFR is a critical challenge in developing EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors to overcome drug resistance in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The discovery of next-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) is therefore necessary. To this end, a series of furopyridine derivatives were evaluated for their EGFR-based inhibition and antiproliferative activities using computational and biological approaches. We found that several compounds derived from virtual screening based on a molecular docking and solvated interaction energy (SIE) method showed the potential to suppress wild-type and mutant EGFR. The most promising PD13 displayed strong inhibitory activity against wild-type (IC50 of 11.64 ± 1.30 nM), L858R/T790M (IC50 of 10.51 ± 0.71 nM), which are more significant than known drugs. In addition, PD13 revealed a potent cytotoxic effect on A549 and H1975 cell lines with IC50 values of 18.09 ± 1.57 and 33.87 ± 0.86 µM, respectively. The 500-ns MD simulations indicated that PD13 formed a hydrogen bond with Met793 at the hinge region, thus creating excellent EGFR inhibitory activity. Moreover, the binding of PD13 in the hinge region of EGFR was the major determining factor in stabilizing the interactions via hydrogen bonds and van der Waals (vdW). Altogether, PD13 is a promising novel EGFR inhibitor that could be further clinically developed as fourth-generation EGFR-TKIs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This retrospective cohort study examined the impact of tetracyclines (TCs) and proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) alone or in combination on the efficacy of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS Patients with NSCLC treated with gefitinib or erlotinib for at least 1 week between January 2009 and October 2021 were enrolled and divided into four groups based on the presence/absence of TC and/or PPI in the therapeutic regimen: TC-/PPI-, TC + /PPI-, TC-/PPI + , TC + /PPI + . Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were the primary and secondary endpoints, respectively. RESULTS The estimated median PFS and OS of 347 included patients with NSCLC were 8.57 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 7.66-9.48) months and 13.10 (95% CI: 11.03-15.17) months, respectively. Co-administration of EGFR-TKIs with PPIs decreased the PFS and OS, while that with TCs improved the PFS and OS. However, the concomitant use of EGFR-TKIs, TCs, and PPIs yielded survival rates similar to that of EGFR-TKI therapy alone. CONCLUSIONS The administration of EGFR-TKIs with other drugs poses a challenge in managing patients with NSCLC. Therefore, reassessing the indications and necessity of TC or PPI therapy is essential for patients receiving erlotinib or gefitinib. The benefits and risks of possible discontinuation due to the clinical relevance of this interaction should be considered.

ESMO Open 2023; 8:100880. [PMID: 36764092 PMCID: PMC10024146 DOI: 10.1016/j.esmoop.2023.100880] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2022] [Revised: 01/03/2023] [Accepted: 01/12/2023] [Indexed: 02/11/2023] Open
Abstract
New concepts and drugs have revolutionized medical treatment for cancers. These drugs, which are very expensive and usually well tolerated, have dramatically improved cancer prognosis. We must use them wisely for patients to fully benefit. Gastric acid antisecretory drugs and particularly proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) revolutionized the treatment of gastroduodenal ulcers and severe gastroesophageal reflux, but are frequently overused for symptomatic treatment of epigastric pain or heartburn. Long-term acid suppression may alter the efficacy of many anticancer drugs, such as tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitors and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), by either decreasing gastric acid secretion and thus drug absorption, or by modifying the gut microbiome that modulates the response to ICIs. Oncologists thus need to pay particular attention to the concomitant use of PPIs and anticancer drugs. These interactions translate into major clinical impacts, with demonstrated loss of efficacy for some TKIs (erlotinib, gefitinib, pazopanib), and conflicting results with many other oral drugs, including capecitabine and CDK 4/6 inhibitors. Furthermore, the profound changes in the gut microbiome due to using PPIs have shown that the benefit of using ICIs may be suppressed in patients treated with PPIs. As the use of PPIs is not essential, we must apply the precautionary principle. The first sentence of a recent Comment in Nature was "Every day, millions of people are taking medications that will not help them". We fear that every day millions of cancer patients are taking medications that harm them. While this may well be only association and not causation, there is enough to make us pause until we reach a clear answer. All these data should encourage medical oncologists to refrain from prescribing PPIs, explaining to patients the risks of interaction in order to prevent inappropriate prescription by another physician.

Abstract
Purpose Previous retrospective studies reported that proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs) may decrease the efficacy of first-generation epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) including gefitinib and erlotinib. Afatinib had a wider soluble pH range, with possible fewer interactions with antacids. However, clinical data were limited. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the negative impact of PPIs on afatinib. Patients and Methods This retrospective cohort study included patients who are newly diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) from 2014 to 2019 using the Chang Gung Research Database. We identified patients who were treated with first-line afatinib and analyzed the association between the PPI and afatinib treatment outcomes. Results A total of 1418 patients were treated with first-line afatinib and followed up for 6 years. First-line afatinib was administered to 918 eligible patients, and 330 had afatinib with PPIs. The combination use of PPIs and afatinib significantly decreased the overall survival (OS) compared with that of patients using afatinib only (median OS: 33.2 and 25.1 months, p < 0.01) and multivariate analyses (Combination use: hazard ratio: 1.29; 1.05-1.59, p = 0.01). The percentages of patients who were able to receive 2nd line therapy also significantly decreased in afatinib with PPI cohort. Conclusion The concurrent use of PPIs was associated with lower OS in patients with EGFR-mutant lung cancer under the first-line afatinib treatment but not associated with TTF.

Abstract
Scaffolding proteins colocalize interacting partners on their surface and facilitate complex formation. They have multiple domains and motifs, which provide binding sites for various molecules. This property of scaffolding proteins helps in the orderly transduction of signals. Abnormal signal transduction is frequently observed in cancers, which can also be attributed to the altered functionality of scaffolding proteins. IQ motif containing GTPase activating proteins (IQGAPs), kinase suppressor of Ras (KSR), and A-kinase anchoring proteins (AKAPs) tether oncogenic pathways RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK, PI3K/AKT, Hippo, Wnt, and CDC42/RAC to them. Scaffolding proteins are attractive drug targets as they are the controlling hub for multiple pathways and regulate crosstalk between them. The first part of this review describes the human scaffolding proteins known to play a role in oncogenesis, pathways altered by them, and the impact on oncogenic processes. The second part provides information on the therapeutic potential of scaffolding proteins and future possibilities. The information on the explored and unexplored areas of the therapeutic potential of scaffolding proteins will be equally helpful for biologists and chemists.

Abstract
In this study, we provide a systems biology method to investigate the carcinogenic mechanism of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) in order to identify some important biomarkers as drug targets. Further, a systematic drug discovery method with a deep neural network (DNN)-based drug–target interaction (DTI) model and drug design specifications is proposed to design a potential multiple-molecule drug for the medical treatment of OSCC before clinical trials. First, we use big database mining to construct the candidate genome-wide genetic and epigenetic network (GWGEN) including a protein–protein interaction network (PPIN) and a gene regulatory network (GRN) for OSCC and non-OSCC. In the next step, real GWGENs are identified for OSCC and non-OSCC by system identification and system order detection methods based on the OSCC and non-OSCC microarray data, respectively. Then, the principal network projection (PNP) method was used to extract core GWGENs of OSCC and non-OSCC from real GWGENs of OSCC and non-OSCC, respectively. Afterward, core signaling pathways were constructed through the annotation of KEGG pathways, and then the carcinogenic mechanism of OSCC was investigated by comparing the core signal pathways and their downstream abnormal cellular functions of OSCC and non-OSCC. Consequently, HES1, TCF, NF-κB and SP1 are identified as significant biomarkers of OSCC. In order to discover multiple molecular drugs for these significant biomarkers (drug targets) of the carcinogenic mechanism of OSCC, we trained a DNN-based drug–target interaction (DTI) model by DTI databases to predict candidate drugs for these significant biomarkers. Finally, drug design specifications such as adequate drug regulation ability, low toxicity and high sensitivity are employed to filter out the appropriate molecular drugs metformin, gefitinib and gallic-acid to combine as a potential multiple-molecule drug for the therapeutic treatment of OSCC.

Abstract
Mutations in the tyrosine kinase domain of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), including L858R/T790M double and L858R/T790M/C797S triple mutations, are major causes of acquired resistance towards EGFR targeted drugs. In this work, a combination of comprehensive molecular modeling and in vitro kinase inhibition assay was used to unravel the mutational effects of EGFR on the susceptibility of three generations of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (erlotinib, gefitinib, afatinib, dacomitinib, and osimertinib) in comparison with the wild-type EGFR. The binding affinity of all studied inhibitors towards the double and triple EGFR mutations was in good agreement with the experimental data, ranked in the order of osimertinib > afatinib > dacomitinib > erlotinib > gefitinib. Three hot-spot residues at the hinge region (M790, M793, and C797) were involved in the binding of osimertinib and afatinib, enhancing their inhibitory activity towards mutated EGFRs. Both double and triple EGFR mutations causing erlotinib and gefitinib resistance are mainly caused by the low number of H-bond occupations, the low number of surrounding atoms, and the high number of water molecules accessible to the enzyme active site. According to principal component analysis, the molecular complexation of osimertinib against the two mutated EGFRs was in a closed conformation, whereas that against wild-type EGFR was in an open conformation, resulting in drug resistance. This work paves the way for further design of the novel EGFR inhibitors to overcome drug resistance mechanisms.

Abstract
EGFR is a member of the ERBB family. It plays a significant role in cellular processes such as growth, survival and differentiation via the activation of various signaling pathways. EGFR deregulation is implicated in various human malignancies, and therefore EGFR has emerged as an attractive anticancer target. EGFR inhibition using strategies such as tyrosine kinase inhibitors and monoclonal antibodies hinders cellular proliferation and promotes apoptosis in cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. EGFR inhibition by tyrosine kinase inhibitors has been shown to be a better treatment option than chemotherapy for advanced-stage EGFR-driven non-small-cell lung cancer, yet de novo and acquired resistance limits the clinical benefit of these therapeutic molecules. This review discusses the cellular signaling pathways activated by EGFR. Further, current therapeutic strategies to target aberrant EGFR signaling in cancer and mechanisms of resistance to them are highlighted.

Abstract
Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) causes significant mortality worldwide. Patients with chronic renal failure have an increased risk of developing lung cancer. NSCLC Patients with chronic renal failure undergoing hemodialysis (HD) often exhibit poor performance, and chemotherapy is generally contraindicated. Oral epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are effective treatment agents for NSCLC patients. However, the benefits and adverse effects of EGFR-TKIs in NSCLC undergoing HD are known. There are no clinical studies on the effects of EGFR-TKIs on NSCLC patients undergoing HD. We reviewed all previous case reports about EGFR-TKIs in NSCLC patients undergoing HD. It is difficult to design studies about the effects of EGFR-TKIs in patients undergoing HD, and this review is quite important. EGFR-TKIs are well tolerated in patients undergoing HD. The main routes of elimination of EGFR-TKIs are metabolism via the liver, and renal elimination is minor. The recommended doses and pharmacokinetics of these EGFR-TKIs for patients undergoing HD are similar to those for patients with normal renal function. The plasma protein binding of EGFR-TKIs is very high, and it is not necessary to adjust the dose after HD. In conclusion, EGFR-TKIs are effective and well tolerated in patients undergoing HD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) block the gastric H/K-ATPase, therefore inhibiting acid gastric secretion, leading to an increased pH (>4). They account for an extremely high number of prescriptions worldwide. Numerous drug-drug interactions have been described with PPIs, but all the described interactions do not have clinical significance. AREAS COVERED This review will discuss the latest updates on drug-drug interactions with PPIs, focusing on the last ten-year publications in the following areas: anti-infective agents, anticancer drugs, antiplatelet agents and anticoagulants, and antidiabetics. EXPERT OPINION Although pharmacokinetic interactions of PPIs have been described with many drugs, their clinical relevance remains controversial. However, given the extremely high number of people being treated with PPIs, clinicians should remain vigilant for interactions that may be clinically significant and require dose adjustment or therapeutic monitoring. Interestingly, not all PPIs have the same pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile, with some having a strong potential to inhibit CYP2C19, such as omeprazole, esomeprazole and lansoprazole, while others, pantoprazole, rabeprazole and dexlansoprazole, are weak CYP2C19 inhibitors. These may be preferred depending on co-prescribed treatments.In addition, new formulations have been developed to prevent some of the gastric pH-dependent drug interactions and should be evaluated in further large-scale prospective comparative studies.

[PMID: 35267464 PMCID: PMC8909698 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14051156] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2022] [Revised: 02/17/2022] [Accepted: 02/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Proton pump inhibitors are frequently used in cancer patients to alleviate some symptoms, epigastric pain or heartburn. However, acid suppression decreases the absorption of some oral-targeted anticancer treatments (tyrosine kinase inhibitors, CDK4/6 inhibitors) and induces changes in the gut microbiome. Recent data are showing that these interactions have important clinical impacts and medical oncologists and patients must be aware of these possible interactions. Abstract Multikinase inhibitors (MKIs), and particularly tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and immune checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs), are currently some of the major breakthroughs in cancer treatment. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) revolutionised the treatment of acid-related diseases, but are frequently overused for epigastric pain or heartburn. However, long-term acid suppression from using PPIs may lead to safety concerns, and could have a greater impact in cancer patients undergoing therapy, like bone fractures, renal toxicities, enteric infections, and micronutrient deficiencies (iron and magnesium). Moreover, acid suppression may also affect the pharmacokinetics of drugs (at least during acid suppression) and decrease the absorption of many molecularly-targeted anticancer therapies, which are mostly weak bases with pH-dependent absorption. This type of drug-drug interaction may have detrimental effects on efficacy, with major clinical impacts described for some orally administrated targeted therapies (erlotinib, gefitinib, pazopanib, palbociclib), and conflicting results with many others, including capecitabine. Furthermore, the long-term use of PPIs results in severe alterations to the gut microbiome and recent retrospective analyses have shown that the benefit of using CPIs was suppressed in patients treated with PPIs. These very expensive drugs are of great importance because of their efficacy. As the use of PPIs is not essential, we must apply the precautionary principle. All these data should encourage medical oncologists to refrain from prescribing PPIs, explaining to patients the risks of interaction in order to prevent inappropriate prescription by another physician.

Integration of liquid biopsy and pharmacogenomics for precision therapy of EGFR mutant and resistant lung cancers. Mol Cancer 2022; 21:61.

Abstract
The advent of molecular profiling has revolutionized the treatment of lung cancer by comprehensively delineating the genomic landscape of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene. Drug resistance caused by EGFR mutations and genetic polymorphisms of drug metabolizing enzymes and transporters impedes effective treatment of EGFR mutant and resistant lung cancer. This review appraises current literature, opportunities, and challenges associated with liquid biopsy and pharmacogenomic (PGx) testing as precision therapy tools in the management of EGFR mutant and resistant lung cancers. Liquid biopsy could play a potential role in selection of precise tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapies during different phases of lung cancer treatment. This selection will be based on the driver EGFR mutational status, as well as monitoring the development of potential EGFR mutations arising during or after TKIs treatment, since some of these new mutations may be druggable targets for alternative TKIs. Several studies have identified the utility of liquid biopsy in the identification of EGFR driver and acquired resistance with good sensitivities for various blood-based biomarkers. With a plethora of sequencing technologies and platforms available currently, further evaluations using randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in multicentric, multiethnic and larger patient cohorts could enable optimization of liquid-based assays for the detection of EGFR mutations, and support testing of CYP450 enzymes and drug transporter polymorphisms to guide precise dosing of EGFR TKIs.

Abstract
Background and Objective Dacomitinib is a kinase inhibitor indicated for the first-line treatment of patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-activating mutations. To evaluate the effect of hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics of dacomitinib, two dedicated studies were conducted to inform optimal dosing. Methods Study 1 (NCT01571388) evaluated the effect of mild and moderate hepatic impairment on the plasma pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability after a single oral dose of dacomitinib 30 mg, and Study 2 (NCT03865446) evaluated the same endpoints in a severe hepatic impairment population. Both studies were phase I, open-label, parallel-group studies. A one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with unequal variance assumption and hepatic impairment group as a fixed effect was used to compare the natural log of area under the plasma concentration-time curve extrapolated to infinite time (AUCinf), AUC from time zero to the last quantifiable concentration (AUClast), and maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) for each hepatic impairment group to the respective normal hepatic function group. Since dacomitinib is a cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2D6 substrate, only participants with extensive or intermediate CYP2D6 phenotypes were included in the primary analysis. Results The AUCinf for participants with mild, moderate, or severe hepatic impairment decreased by 6%, decreased by 23%, and increased by 4%, respectively, compared with normal hepatic function, while the Cmax for participants with mild, moderate, or severe hepatic impairment increased by 3%, decreased by 20%, and increased by 31%, respectively, compared with normal hepatic function. A single oral dose of dacomitinib 30 mg was well tolerated in all participants. Conclusion Based on these pharmacokinetic results, dacomitinib pharmacokinetics of participants with mild, moderate, or severe hepatic impairment were not statistically different relative to participants with normal hepatic function based on the ANOVA analysis. No dacomitinib dose adjustments for patients with hepatic impairment are recommended. Clinical Trial Registration ClinicalTrials.gov NCT01571388, registered 5 April 2012; ClinicalTrials.gov NCT03865446, registered 6 March 2019.

Abstract
Precision oncology has fundamentally changed how we diagnose and treat cancer. In recent years, there has been a significant change in the management of patients with oncogene-addicted advanced-stage non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Increasing amounts of identifiable oncogene drivers have led to the development of molecularly targeted drugs. Undoubtedly, the future of thoracic oncology is shifting toward increased molecular testing and the use of targeted therapies. For the most part, these novel drugs have proven to be safe and effective. As with all great innovations, targeted therapies pose unique challenges. Drug toxicities, resistance, access, and costs are some of the expected obstacles that will need to be addressed. This review highlights some of the major challenges in the use of targeted therapies in NSCLC and provides guidance for the future strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The influence of concomitant use of gastric acid suppressants (AS) on survival of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) is inconsistent according to previous studies. We performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of additional AS in patients with NSCLC taking TKIs. METHODS Relevant observational studies were identified by a search of Medline, Embase, and Web of Science databases. Only studies with multivariate analyses were included. A random-effect model was used to combine the results. RESULTS Thirteen retrospective studies with 12259 patients were included. Pooled results showed that concomitant use of AS was associated with worse progression-free survival (PFS, adjusted hazard ratio (HR): 1.57, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.31 to 1.89, P < 0.001; I 2 = 65%) and overall survival (OS, adjusted HR: 1.38, 95% CI: 1.19 to 1.61, P < 0.001; I 2 = 70%) in NSCLC patients taking TKIs. Sensitivity analysis limited to studies including NSCLC with EGFR mutation showed consistent results (HR for PFS: 1.53, P=0.003; HR for OS: 1.43, P=0.001). Subgroup analyses indicated that the association between concomitant use of AS and poor survival was not significantly affected by the category of AS used (proton pump inhibitors or histamine type-2 receptor antagonists) or the country of the study (Asian or non-Asian, P for subgroup analysis all >0.05). CONCLUSIONS Concomitant use of AS in patients with NSCLC taking TKIs may be associated with poor survival outcomes.

Abstract
CONTEXT Dacomitinib and poziotinib, irreversible ErbB family blockers, are often used for treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in the clinic. OBJECTIVE This study investigates the effect of dacomitinib on the pharmacokinetics of poziotinib in rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twelve Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into two groups: the test group (20 mg/kg dacomitinib for 14 consecutive days) and the control group (equal amounts of vehicle). Each group was given an oral dose of 10 mg/kg poziotinib 30 min after administration of dacomitinib or vehicle at the end of the 14 day administration. The concentration of poziotinib in plasma was quantified by UPLC-MS/MS. Both in vitro effects of dacomitinib on poziotinib and the mechanism of the observed inhibition were studied in rat liver microsomes and human liver microsomes. RESULTS When orally administered, dacomitinib increased the AUC, Tmax and decreased CL of poziotinib (p < 0.05). The IC50 values of M1 in RLM, HLM and CYP3A4 were 11.36, 30.49 and 19.57 µM, respectively. The IC50 values of M2 in RLM, HLM and CYP2D6 were 43.69, 0.34 and 0.11 µM, respectively, and dacomitinib inhibited poziotinib by a mixed way in CYP3A4 and CYP2D6. The results of the in vivo experiments were consistent with those of the in vitro experiments. CONCLUSIONS This research demonstrates that a drug-drug interaction between poziotinib and dacomitinib possibly exists when readministered with poziotinib; thus, clinicians should pay attention to the resulting changes in pharmacokinetic parameters and accordingly, adjust the dose of poziotinib in clinical settings.

Abstract
Gatekeeper T790M mutation in EGFR is the most common factor for acquired resistance. Acrylamide-bearing 4-anilinoquinazoline scaffold are powerful irreversible inhibitors for overcoming resistance. In this work, three series of EGFR inhibitors derived from incorporation of cinnamamide into the quinazoline scaffold were designed and synthesized to reverse resistance resulting from insurgence of T790M mutation. SAR studies revealed that methoxy and acetoxy substitutions on the cinnamic phenyl ring were found to elevate the activity. In particular, compound 7g emerged as the most potent derivative against mutant-type H1975 cells, which exhibited comparable activity to osimertinib (0.95 μM) towards H1975 cells with an IC50 value of 1.22 μM. Kinase inhibition studies indicated that 7g showed excellent inhibitory effect on EGFRT790M enzyme, which was 11 times more effective than gefitinib. Besides, selectivity index of 7g toward the EGFRT790M mutant over the EGFRWT is 2.72, hinting its effect of reducing off-target. Mechanism study indicated that 7g induced apoptosis of H1975 cells and arrest the cell cycle at G2/M phase in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, 7g could significantly inhibit the expression of p-EGFR and its downstream p-AKT and p-ERK in H1975 cells. Molecular docking was also performed to gain insights into the ligand-binding interactions of 7g inside EGFRWT and EGFRT790M binding sites.

Abstract
The central role of dysregulated kinase activity in the etiology of progressive disorders, including cancer, has fostered incremental efforts on drug discovery programs over the past 40 years. As a result, kinase inhibitors are today one of the most important classes of drugs. The FDA approved 73 small molecule kinase inhibitor drugs until September 2021, and additional inhibitors were approved by other regulatory agencies during that time. To complement the published literature on clinical kinase inhibitors, we have prepared a review that recaps this large data set into an accessible format for the medicinal chemistry community. Along with the therapeutic and pharmacological properties of each kinase inhibitor approved across the world until 2020, we provide the synthesis routes originally used during the discovery phase, many of which were only available in patent applications. In the last section, we also provide an update on kinase inhibitor drugs approved in 2021.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a subset of breast cancer with aggressive characteristics and few therapeutic options. The lack of an appropriate therapeutic target is a challenging issue in treating TNBC. Although a high level expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) has been associated with a poor prognosis among patients with TNBC, targeted anti-EGFR therapies have demonstrated limited efficacy for TNBC treatment in both clinical and preclinical settings. However, with the advantage of a number of clinically approved EGFR inhibitors (EGFRis), combination strategies have been explored as a promising approach to overcome the intrinsic resistance of TNBC to EGFRis. In this review, we analyzed the literature on the combination of EGFRis with other molecularly targeted therapeutics or conventional chemotherapeutics to understand the current knowledge and to provide potential therapeutic options for TNBC treatment.

Evaluation of Drug-Drug Interactions in EGFR-Mutated Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer Patients during Treatment with Tyrosine-Kinase Inhibitors. J Pers Med 2021; 11:jpm11050424. [PMID: 34069851 PMCID: PMC8157378 DOI: 10.3390/jpm11050424] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/05/2021] [Revised: 05/02/2021] [Accepted: 05/11/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
(1) Background. The onset of a drug–drug interaction (DDI) may affect treatment efficacy and toxicity of advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (aNSCLC) patients during epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (TKI) use. Here we present the use of Drug-PIN® (Personalized Interactions Network) software to detect DDIs in aNSCLC patients undergoing EGFR-TKIs. (2) Methods. We enrolled patients with Stage IV aNSCLC already treated with or candidates to receive EGFR-TKIs, in any line; ECOG PS 0–2; taking at least one concomitant drug. Cancer treatments, concomitant drugs, and clinical and laboratory data were collected and inserted in Drug-PIN®. (3) Results. Ninety-two patients, median age of 68.5 years (range 43–89), were included. In total, 20 clinically relevant DDIs needing medical intervention in a total of 14 patients were identified; the 14 major DDIs were related to a high-grade interaction between TKIs and SSRIs, antipsychotics, antiepileptics, H2-receptor antagonist and calcium antagonists. A negative association between statin intake and PFS was identified (p = 0.02; HR 0.281, 95% CI 0.096–0.825). (4) Conclusions. This is the first retrospective study assessing the prevalence of DDIs, the clinical need for medical intervention and the impact of concomitant drugs on EGFR-TKIs survival in aNSCLC.

Abstract
Molecular alterations in cancer genes and associated signaling pathways are used to inform new treatments for precision medicine in cancer. Small molecule inhibitors and monoclonal antibodies directed at relevant cancer-related proteins have been instrumental in delivering successful treatments of some blood malignancies (e.g., imatinib with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML)) and solid tumors (e.g., tamoxifen with ER positive breast cancer and trastuzumab for HER2-positive breast cancer). However, inherent limitations such as drug toxicity, as well as acquisition of de novo or acquired mechanisms of resistance, still cause treatment failure. Here we provide an up-to-date review of the successes and limitations of current targeted therapies for cancer treatment and highlight how recent technological advances have provided a new level of understanding of the molecular complexity underpinning resistance to cancer therapies. We also raise three basic questions concerning cancer drug discovery based on molecular markers and alterations of selected signaling pathways, and further discuss how combination therapies may become the preferable approach over monotherapy for cancer treatments. Finally, we consider novel therapeutic developments that may complement drug delivery and significantly improve clinical response and outcomes of cancer patients.

Abstract
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) significantly improve the outcome of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with EGFR mutations, however, most TKI-treated patients will develop resistance to TKIs. β-elemene, extracted from Curcuma aromatica Salisb., has been widely used to treat various malignant tumors, including TKI-resistant NSCLC, but, the effects and the molecular mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, the NCI-H1975 cell line harboring double mutations L858R/T790M was treated with varying concentrations of β-elemene and/or erlotinib. The effects of β-elemene on cell proliferation, migration, apoptosis, and the expression of relevant proteins of NCI-H1975 cells were evaluated. The results revealed that β‑elemene significantly inhibited the growth, colony formation capacity, wound healing ability of NCI-H1975 cells, and improved the sensitivity of NCI-H1975 cells to erlotinib. Compared with erlotinib alone, β-elemene plus erlotinib significantly promoted the apoptosis of NCI-H1975 cells, accompanied by the down-regulated expression of P-mTOR, P-EGFR, CHOP proteins and up-regulated expression of P-AMPKα and Bax proteins. Taken together, these findings demonstrate that β-elemene suppresses the proliferation and migration of TKI-resistant H1975 cells, and enhances the antitumor activity of erlotinib by inducing apoptosis through AMPK and MAPK pathways in TKI-resistant H1975 lung cancer cells, indicating that β-elemene is a promising anti-cancer therapeutic candidate for TKI-resistant NSCLC.

Abstract
Multi-target, especially dual-target, drug design has become a popular research field for cancer treatment. Development of small molecule dual-target inhibitors through hybridization strategy can provide highly potent and selective anticancer agents. In this study, three series of quinazoline derivatives bearing a benzene-sulfonamide moiety were designed and synthesized as dual EGFR/CAIX inhibitors. All the synthesized compounds were evaluated against epidermoid carcinoma (A431) and non-small cell lung cancer (A549 and H1975) cell lines, which displayed weak to potent anticancer activity. In particular, compound 8v emerged as the most potent derivative against mutant-type H1975 cells, which exhibited comparable activity to osimertinib. Importantly, 8v exhibited stronger anti-proliferative activity than osimertinib against H1975 cells under hypoxic condition. Kinase inhibition studies indicated that 8v showed excellent inhibitory effect on EGFRT790M enzyme, which was 41 times more effective than gefitinib and almost equal to osimertinib. Mechanism studies revealed that 8v exhibited remarkable CAIX inhibitory effect comparable to acetazolamide and significantly inhibited the expression of p-EGFR as well as its downstream p-AKT and p-ERK in H1975 cells. Notably, 8v was found to inhibit the expression of CAIX and its upstream HIF-1α in H1975 cells under hypoxic condition. Molecular docking was also performed to gain insights into the ligand-binding interactions of 8v inside EGFRWT, EGFRT790M and CAIX binding sites.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are the most commonly used anti-acid drugs worldwide, including among cancer patients. However, drug-drug interactions between PPIs and other agents may lead to decreased drug absorption with possible reduced therapeutic benefit, or even increased toxicity. Unfortunately, only scarce data exist regarding the safety of concomitant PPI use with anti-cancer agents. We aim at reviewing current evidence on this possible interaction by dividing anti-cancer agents by class. Until further data is available, we encourage healthcare providers to limit unnecessary PPI overuse.

Abstract
Osimertinib is a highly potent and selective third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitor, which provides excellent clinical benefits and is now a standard-of-care therapy for advanced EGFR mutation-positive non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, AZ5104, a primary toxic metabolite of osimertinib, has caused unwanted toxicities. To address this unmet medical need, we initiated an iterative program focusing on structural optimizations of osimertinib and preclinical characterization, leading to the discovery of a highly potent, selective, and orally efficacious deuterated EGFR-targeting clinical candidate, dosimertinib. Preclinical studies revealed that dosimertinib demonstrated robust in vivo antitumor efficacy and favorable PK profiles, but with lower toxicity than osimertinib. These preclinical data support further clinical development of dosimertinib for the treatment of NSCLC. Dosimertinib has received official approval in China to initiate the phase I clinical trial (registration numbers: CXHL2000060 and CXHL2000061).

[PMID: 33183197 DOI: 10.2174/1389200221666201112110638] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2020] [Revised: 07/30/2020] [Accepted: 09/22/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND As a new tumor therapy, targeted therapy is becoming a hot topic due to its high efficiency and low toxicity. Drug effects of targeted tumor drugs are closely related to pharmacokinetics, so it is important to understand their distribution and metabolism in vivo. METHODS A systematic review of the literature on the metabolism and distribution of targeted drugs over the past 20 years was conducted, and the pharmacokinetic parameters of approved targeted drugs were summarized in combination with the FDA's drug instructions. Targeting drugs are divided into two categories: small molecule inhibitors and monoclonal antibodies. Novel targeting drugs and their mechanisms of action, which have been developed in recent years, are summarized. The distribution and metabolic processes of each drug in the human body are reviewed. RESULTS In this review, we found that the distribution and metabolism of small molecule kinase inhibitors (TKI) and monoclonal antibodies (mAb) showed different characteristics based on the differences of action mechanism and molecular characteristics. TKI absorbed rapidly (Tmax ≈ 1-4 h) and distributed in large amounts (Vd > 100 L). It was mainly oxidized and reduced by cytochrome P450 CYP3A4. However, due to the large molecular diameter, mAb was distributed to tissues slowly, and the volume of distribution was usually very low (Vd < 10 L). It was mainly hydrolyzed and metabolized into peptides and amino acids by protease hydrolysis. In addition, some of the latest drugs are still in clinical trials, and the in vivo process still needs further study. CONCLUSION According to the summary of the research progress of the existing targeting drugs, it is found that they have high specificity, but there are still deficiencies in drug resistance and safety. Therefore, the development of safer and more effective targeted drugs is the future research direction. Meanwhile, this study also provides a theoretical basis for clinical accurate drug delivery.

Epithelial Transfer of the Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors Erlotinib, Gefitinib, Afatinib, Crizotinib, Sorafenib, Sunitinib, and Dasatinib: Implications for Clinical Resistance. Cancers (Basel) 2020; 12:cancers12113322. [PMID: 33182766 PMCID: PMC7696666 DOI: 10.3390/cancers12113322] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2020] [Accepted: 11/07/2020] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) specifically inhibit phosphorylation of signaling pathways of cancer cells, thereby inhibiting their growth. They are characterized by a poor solubility and high protein binding, leading to a large variability in gut uptake after oral administration and variation in the clinical efficacy. We used the CaCo2 gut epithelial model to characterize the gut absorption of 7 TKIs and observed a large variation in apical/basolateral (mimicking gut/blood) transfer, with 4 TKIs showing a negative and 3 a neutral transfer. A highly negative transfer may lead to pharmacokinetic resistance. Intracellular uptake of TKIs was high for sunitinib and crizotinib, intermediate for gefitinib, dasatinib and sorafenib, low for afatinib and not detectable for erlotinib. These properties may explain a high red blood cell to plasma ratio for most TKIs investigated. Although TKIs are poorly absorbed the latter property may compensate for this. Abstract Background: tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) inhibit phosphorylation of signaling proteins. TKIs often show large variations in the clinic due to poor pharmacology, possibly leading to resistance. We compared gut absorption of inhibitors of epidermal growth factor receptor (erlotinib, gefitinib, and afatinib), ALK-cMET (crizotinib), PDGFR/BCR-Abl (dasatinib), and multikinase inhibitors (sunitinib and sorafenib). In clinical samples, we measured the disposition of each compound within various blood compartments. Methods: we used an optimized CaCo2 gut epithelial model to characterize 20 µM TKI absorption. The apical/basolateral transfer is considered to represent the gut/blood transfer. Drugs were measured using LC-MS/MS. Results: sorafenib and sunitinib showed the highest apical/basolateral transfer (Papp 14.1 and 7.7 × 10−6 cm/s, respectively), followed by dasatinib (3.4), afatinib (1.5), gefitinib (0.38), erlotinib (0.13), and crizotinib (n.d.). However, the net absorptions for dasatinib, afatinib, crizotinib, and erlotinib were highly negative (efflux ratios >5) or neutral/negative, sorafenib (0.86), gefitinib (1.0), and sunitinib (1.6). A high negative absorption may result in resistance because of a poor exposure of tissues to the drug. Accumulation of the TKIs at the end of the transfer period (A->B) was not detectable for erlotinib, very low for afatinib 0.45 pmol/μg protein), followed by gefitinib (0.79), dasatinib (1.1), sorafenib (1.65), and crizotinib (2.11), being highest for sunitinib (11.9). A similar pattern was found for accumulation of these drugs in other colon cell lines, WiDr and HT29. In clinical samples, drugs accumulated consistently in red blood cells; blood to plasma ratios were all >3 (sorafenib) or over 30 for erlotinib. Conclusions: TKIs are consistently poorly absorbed, but accumulation in red blood cells seems to compensate for this.

Abstract
Oral anticancer drugs have the advantages of convenient and flexible administration, however, they also face some new problems related to their oral preparation. Herein we describe a case of advanced non-small-cell lung cancer patient treated with gefitinib who had long-term adverse reactions of rashes and diarrhea, and his rashes disappeared after taking alkaline soda, and then reappeared after stopping drinking it. Imaging progress was also observed. To our knowledge, this is the first report on the effect of alkaline food on gefitinib-induced rashes dynamic change. In this case, the rash acted as a signal of therapeutic efficacy. Clinicians and pharmacists should be aware of potential and common factors that affect drug efficacy and strive to achieve the best therapeutic results.

Abstract
The outbreak of COVID-19, the pandemic disease caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has spurred an intense search for treatments by the scientific community. In the absence of a vaccine, the goal is to target the viral life cycle and alleviate the lung-damaging symptoms of infection, which can be life-threatening. There are numerous protein kinases associated with these processes that can be inhibited by FDA-approved drugs, the repurposing of which presents an alluring option as they have been thoroughly vetted for safety and are more readily available for treatment of patients and testing in clinical trials. Here, we characterize more than 30 approved kinase inhibitors in terms of their antiviral potential, due to their measured potency against key kinases required for viral entry, metabolism, or reproduction. We also highlight inhibitors with potential to reverse pulmonary insufficiency because of their anti-inflammatory activity, cytokine suppression, or antifibrotic activity. Certain agents are projected to be dual-purpose drugs in terms of antiviral activity and alleviation of disease symptoms, however drug combination is also an option for inhibitors with optimal pharmacokinetic properties that allow safe and efficacious co-administration with other drugs, such as antiviral agents, IL-6 blocking agents, or other kinase inhibitors.

Abstract
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors represent the standard of care in patients with EGFR mutation-positive (EGFRm+) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The availability of several EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors approved for use in the first-line or later settings in NSCLC warrants an in-depth understanding of the pharmacological properties of, and clinical data supporting, these agents. The second-generation, irreversible ErbB-family blocker, afatinib, has been extensively studied in the context of EGFRm+ NSCLC. Results from the LUX-Lung 3 and 6 studies showed that afatinib was more active and better tolerated than chemotherapy in patients with tumors harboring EGFR mutations. Subanalysis of these trials, along with real-world data, indicates that afatinib is active in patients with certain uncommon EGFR mutations (S768I/G719X/L861Q) as well as common mutations (Del19/L858R), and in patients with active brain metastases. In LUX-Lung 7, a head-to-head phase IIb trial, afatinib improved progression-free survival and time-to-treatment failure versus the first-generation reversible EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor, gefitinib, albeit with a higher incidence of serious treatment-related adverse events. Nevertheless, afatinib is generally well tolerated, and adverse events are manageable through supportive care and a well-defined tolerability-guided dose adjustment scheme. In this review, we provide a detailed overview of the pharmacology, efficacy, and safety of afatinib, discuss treatment sequencing strategies following emergence of different resistance mechanisms, and shed light on the economic impact of afatinib. We also provide a comparison of afatinib with the available EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors and discuss its position within treatment strategies for patients with EGFRm+ NSCLC.

Abstract
A randomized, open-label, 2-period crossover study was performed to evaluate the pharmacokinetic properties and bioequivalence of 2 erlotinib hydrochloride tablets (a test formulation and a reference formulation) in healthy Chinese subjects. Subjects were randomized to receive a single oral dose of the erlotinib hydrochloride test or reference formulation (150 mg) under fasting conditions. The washout period was 12 days. Blood samples were collected at scheduled time points, and plasma concentrations were determined using a high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method. A noncompartmental method was used to calculate pharmacokinetic parameters and to evaluate the bioequivalence of the 2 formulations. Safety assessments were performed during the whole study period. The results suggest that the pharmacokinetic parameter values of the test formulation were similar to those of the reference formulation. The 90% confidence intervals of the geometric least-squares mean ratios of the test to reference formulation were 94.06% to 105.43% for maximum concentration, 88.21% to 97.57% for area under the concentration-time curve to last measurement, and 87.37% to 97.14% for area under the curve extrapolated to infinity, which are all within the accepted bioequivalence range of 80% to 125%. No serious adverse events occurred during the study. These findings suggest that the 2 erlotinib hydrochloride tablets were bioequivalent in accordance with predetermined regulatory criteria.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is well known that nuclear factor of activated T cells c1 (NFATc1) expression is closely associated with progression of many cancers. And we found that miR-338 could directly target the NFATc1. However, the precise mechanisms of miR-338 in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have not been well clarified. Our study aimed to explore the interaction between NFATc1 and miR-338 in NSCLC. METHODS Quantitative RT-PCR was utilized to determine the expressions of NFATc1 and miR-338 in NSCLC tissues and cell lines. And the cell proliferation and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) were assessed to determine the functional roles of miR-338 and NFATc1 in NSCLC cells. NFATc1 expression was detected using quantitative RT-PCR and western blotting, respectively. Luciferase reporter assays were performed to validate NFATc1 as a target of miR-338 in NSCLC cells. RESULTS In this study, our results showed that NFATc1 expression was significantly up-regulated in NSCLC tissues and cell lines, and the miR-338 level was dramatically down-regulated. Moreover high NFATc1 expression was closely associated with low miR-338 level in NSCLC tissues. Moreover introduction of miR-338 significantly inhibited proliferation and EMT of NSCLC cells. Bioinformatics analysis predicted that the NFATc1 was a potential target gene of miR-338. We demonstrated that miR-338 could directly target NFATc1 by using luciferase reporter assay. Besides, knockdown of NFATc1 had the similar effects with miR-338 overexpression on NSCLC cells. Up-regulation of NFATc1 in NSCLC cells partially abolished the inhibitory effects of miR-338 mimic. CONCLUSIONS Overexpression of miR-338 inhibited cell proliferation and EMT of NSCLC cells by directly down-regulating NFATc1 expression.

Abstract
Olmutinib (Olita™) is an orally bioavailable third generation epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Olmutinib was approved in South Korea in May 2016 for the treatment of patients suffering from locally advanced or metastatic epidermal growth factor receptor T790M mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer. Reactive olmutinib intermediates may be responsible for the severe side effects associated with the treatment. However, literature review revealed no previous reports on the structural identification of reactive olmutinib metabolites. In this work, the formation of reactive olmutinib metabolites in rat liver microsomes was investigated. Methoxylamine, glutathione, and potassium cyanide were used as capturing agents for aldehyde, iminoquinones, and iminium intermediates, respectively. The stable complexes formed were identified using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The major phase I metabolic pathway observed in vitro was hydroxylation of the piperazine ring. Seven potential reactive intermediates were characterized, including three iminium ions, three iminoquinones, and one aldehyde. Based on the findings, various bioactivation pathways were postulated. Hence, identifying the reactive intermediates of olmutinib that may be the cause of severe side effects can provide new insights, leading to improved treatments for patients.

Abstract
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-targeted therapy in non-small cell lung cancer represents a breakthrough in the field of precision medicine. Previously, we have identified a lead compound, furanopyrimidine 2, which contains a (S)-2-phenylglycinol structure as a key fragment to inhibit EGFR. However, compound 2 showed high clearance and poor oral bioavailability in its pharmacokinetics studies. In this work, we optimized compound 2 by scaffold hopping and exploiting the potent inhibitory activity of various warhead groups to obtain a clinical candidate, 78 (DBPR112), which not only displayed a potent inhibitory activity against EGFRL858R/T790M double mutations but also exhibited tenfold potency better than the third-generation inhibitor, osimertinib, against EGFR and HER2 exon 20 insertion mutations. Overall, pharmacokinetic improvement through lead-to-candidate optimization yielded fourfold oral AUC better that afatinib along with F = 41.5%, an encouraging safety profile, and significant antitumor efficacy in in vivo xenograft models. DBPR112 is currently undergoing phase 1 clinical trial in Taiwan.
