Abstract
AIM Lenvatinib mesylate (LEN) is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor used to treat various cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HCC treatment with LEN is associated with a very high incidence of adverse events. This study was aimed at investigating the incidence of LEN-induced palmar-planter erythrodysesthesia syndrome (PPES) and its relationship with patient demographics by analyzing clinical laboratory data of LEN-treated patients with HCC. METHODS This was a single-centre, retrospective study of patients with HCC who received LEN between April 19, 2018, and September 30, 2020. The observation period was from 1 week before the start of LEN administration to 1 month after the end of administration. RESULTS Overall, 75 patients with HCC were enrolled. LEN-induced PPES was found in 48.0% (36/75 patients). In these patients, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), γ-Glutamyl transpeptidase (γ-GTP) and monocytes (MONO) were significantly high (ALP: p = 1.32 × 10-3, γ-GTP: p = 4.25 × 10-3 and MONO: p = 0.013). The cut off values of ALP, γ-GTP and MONO for LEN-induced PPES were estimated at 573 U/L, 89 U/L, and 310 counts/μL, respectively. In the multivariate analysis, γ-GTP and MONO were independent risk factors for LEN-induced PPES. CONCLUSIONS High γ-GTP and high MONO were risk factors for LEN-induced PPES.

Abstract
PURPOSE Treatment with regorafenib, which inhibits vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor, frequently results in hand-foot skin reaction (HFSR), requiring treatment discontinuation or dose reduction. In our prospective study of regorafenib on patients with metastatic colorectal cancer, 17% of patients developed grade 3 HFSR. Herein, we retrospectively examined genetic polymorphisms associated with regorafenib-induced severe HFSR. METHODS To identify associated polymorphisms, exploratory whole-exome sequencing focusing on factors related to VEGF-mediated signaling pathways was first performed in seven patients each, with grade 3 HFSR and without HFSR. The identified HFSR-associated polymorphisms were analyzed in all the 40 patients. RESULTS The genotype frequency of rs3025009 G/A or A/A in the gene encoding VEGF-A (VEGFA) in patients with ≥ grade 2 HFSR was significantly higher than in other patients (P = 0.0257, Pc = 0.0771 [Bonferroni correction]). The frequency of C-C motif of chemokine ligand 4-like 2 (CCL4L2) rs3744596 A/T or T/T in patients with grade 3 HFSR was significantly lower than in others (P = 0.00894, Pc = 0.0268). The combination of the risk genotypes VEGFA rs3025009 G/A or A/A and CCL4L2 rs3744596 A/A was significantly associated with a higher incidence of grade 3 (P = 0.000614, Pc = 0.00246) and a longer median progression-free survival (P = 0.0234) than others. CONCLUSIONS These VEGF-related polymorphisms were found to be associated with HFSR and the survival benefits of regorafenib treatment. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER AND DATE UMIN000013939, registered on May 12, 2014, when 6 months after the approval by the Institutional Review Board of Showa University.

Abstract
The management of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) has advanced significantly in the past two decades. Many promising functional imaging modalities such as radiolabeled tracer targeting carbonic anhydrase IX and prostate-specific membrane antigen are under development to detect primary kidney tumors, stage systemic disease, and assess treatment response in RCC. Immune checkpoint inhibitors targeting PD-1 and cytotoxic T-cell lymphocyte-4 have changed the treatment paradigm in advanced RCC. Trials investigating novel mechanisms such as LAG-3 immune checkpoint inhibition, chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapies, and T-cell engagers targeting RCC-associated antigens are currently ongoing. With the rapidly changing treatment landscape of RCC, the treatment sequence strategies will continue to evolve. Familiarity with the toxicities associated with the therapeutic agents and how to manage them are essential to achieve optimal patient outcomes. This review summarizes the recent developments of functional imaging and immunotherapy strategies in RCC, and the evidence supports treatment sequencing.

Abstract
Hand-foot skin reaction (HFSR) is a common skin-related adverse event induced by multikinase inhibitors targeting both platelet-derived growth factor receptor and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor, possibly due to inadequate repair following frictional trauma. Zinc is a trace element and essential nutrient in humans that plays critical roles in the development and differentiation of skin cells. Zinc transporters (Zrt- and Irt-like proteins and Zn transporters) and metallothioneins are involved in zinc efflux, uptake, and homeostasis and have been reported to be involved in skin differentiation. The underlying mechanism of HFSR remains unclear, and the association between HFSR and zinc has not been previously studied. However, some case reports and case series provide potential evidence to suggest that zinc deficiency may be involved in HFSR development and zinc supplementation may relieve HFSR symptoms. However, no large-scale clinical studies have been conducted to examine this role. Therefore, this review summarizes the evidence supporting a possible link between HFSR development and zinc and proposes potential mechanisms underlying this association based on current evidence.

Abstract
To the editor: Hand-foot skin reaction (HFSR), characterized by skin abnormalities on palmoplantar surfaces, has an overall incidence of about 35% upon vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (VEGFR-TKIs) treatment.1 Zinc, which plays a role in maintaining skin health, may be implicated in the pathogenesis of HFSR.2 Zinc deficiency has been shown to associate with dermatological toxicities of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-TKI.3, 4 Regorafenib, an oral multi-kinase inhibitor targeting VEGFR 1-3, PDGFR, cKIT, BRAF, and RET1, is approved for the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) but commonly causes HFSR.5 This phase II randomized trial aimed to investigate whether zinc supplementation can reduce the severity of HFSR induced by regorafenib within the first 8 weeks of treatment (NCT03898102).

Abstract
Targeted cancer treatments-designed to interfere with specific molecular signals responsible for tumor survival and progression-have shown benefit over conventional chemotherapies but may lead to diverse cutaneous adverse effects. This review highlights clinically significant dermatologic toxicities and their associated histopathologic findings, resulting from various targeted cancer drugs. Case reports and series, clinical trials, reviews, and meta-analyses are included for analysis and summarized herein. Cutaneous side effects resulting from targeted cancer therapies were reported with incidences as high as 90% for certain medications, and reactions are often predictable based on mechanism(s) of action of a given drug. Common and important reaction patterns included: acneiform eruptions, neutrophilic dermatoses, hand-foot skin reaction, secondary cutaneous malignancies, and alopecia. Clinical and histopathologic recognition of these toxicities remains impactful for patient care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and uncommon EGFR alterations typically have worse treatment outcomes than patients with classically EGFR-mutated NSCLC. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of PD-1 blockade with sintilimab plus anti-angiogenic treatment with anlotinib in patients with NSCLC harboring uncommon EGFR mutations. METHODS Patients with metastatic NSCLC harboring uncommon EGFR mutations after two previous treatments, including a platinum-based chemotherapy regimen and a targeted treatment (or chemotherapy only for patients harboring EGFR ex20ins), received sintilimab combined with anlotinib. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR). RESULTS At data cutoff (September 27, 2022), median follow-up was 22.3 months (range, 1.2-37.6). Among 21 enrolled patients, 12 had EGFR ex20ins and nine had other uncommon EGFR mutations such as L861Q, G719A, and G709X. Overall, eight patients (38.1%) achieved an objective response, and 18 (85.7%) achieved disease control. Median (95% CI) progression-free survival (PFS) was 7.0 (5.4-8.6) months, and median overall survival (OS) was 20.0 (15.6-24.4) months. The 12-month PFS rate (95% CI) was 22.2% (7.4-42.0), and the 12-month OS rate was 66.7% (42.5-82.5). Patients harboring EGFR ex20ins had similar ORR and PFS to those with other mutations. Six patients (28.6%) experienced grade 3 treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs); hand-foot syndrome was the most common grade 3 TRAE (2 patients; 9.5%). No grade ≥4 TRAEs were observed. CONCLUSIONS The combination of sintilimab and anlotinib demonstrated durable efficacy and was generally well tolerated in patients with NSCLC and uncommon EGFR mutations who had received prior standard-of-care treatments.

Background Sorafenib included in Chinese medical insurance is the earliest targeted drug for radioactive iodine refractory differentiated thyroid cancer (RR-DTC). This study is to further demonstrate the clinical efficacy and safety of sorafenib used in Zhujiang Hospital of Southern Medical University. Methods RR-DTC patients treated at our Department of Nuclear Medicine in Zhujiang Hospital of Southern Medical University (October 2017-May 2020) were retrospectively analyzed. Treatment effects, progression-free survival (PFS), and adverse effects (AEs) during medication were evaluated. Results Of the 31 patients included, 26 patients were evaluated for efficacy with a median follow-up time of 17.5 months (4.0-51.0 months). The disease control rate (DCR) was 57.7% (n = 15) and the objective response rate (ORR) was 26.9% (n = 7). Most patients with disease control had thyroglobulin decreases of more than 60% (p = 0.004), ORRs were favorable in patients with lung metastasis and lung-only metastasis (p = 0.010 and 0.001, respectively). The PFS of the 26 patients analyzed was 16.5 months (95%CI: 14.41 -23.90 months). In the subgroup analysis, female, patients with lung-only metastasis, hand-foot skin syndrome (HFS), and thyroglobulin response ≥ 60% observed longer PFS (p = 0.038, 0.045, 0.035, and 0.000, respectively), while patients with bone metastasis had lower PFS (p = 0.035). The most common toxicity profile was HFS (93.5%), followed by diarrhea (83.9%), alopecia (74.2%). All the side effects were mainly grade 1-2. Grade 3-4 adverse reactions were more common in diarrhea and HFS. Conclusions Sorafenib has promising efficacy in RR-DTC, especially in patients with lung metastasis and lung-only metastasis. The AEs of sorafenib were generally mild, and the main AE was HFS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multikinase inhibitors (MKIs) treatment has been proven as a powerful strategy in cancer therapy. However, it is greatly hampered by its common adverse effect known as hand-foot skin reaction (HFSR), especially in patients with moderate-to-severe HFSR. OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical characteristics, histopathological features, treatment response, and bio-indicators of HFSR. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 102 patients with moderate-to-severe HFSR resulting from MKIs therapy. RESULTS The median time to development of moderate-to-severe HFSR was 18 days, which would be significantly affected by the type of MKIs and the history of HFSR. Notably, we found that HFSR was classified into three consecutive stages: erythematous lesion, yellow hyperkeratotic lesion with surrounding erythema, and hyperkeratotic lesion. Inflammation was observed in the first two stages of HFSR, but disappeared in the third stage; in contrast, the hyperkeratosis gradually became thicker from stage one to stage three. Moreover, topical medications were demonstrated as an effective therapy for HFSR, among which, the topical steroids and urea ointment treatment response rate was 37.14%, the Shouzu Ning Decoction (SND) treatment response rate was 65%, and the SND in combination with urea ointment treatment response rate was 75%, meanwhile, systemic therapies did not improve the therapeutic efficacy of topical medications alone. In addition, the serum levels of HMGB1 were found to be a potential indicator for tracking the healing process as well as predicting the prognosis of HFSR. CONCLUSION This study revealed the potential factors affecting the development of HFSR, evaluated the therapeutic response towards different strategies for treating HFSR, and identified a potential prognostic indicator of HFSR.

Abstract
Hand-foot skin reaction (HFSR) is a documented cutaneous adverse reaction to tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) chemotherapy. Cutaneous toxicities such as HFSR can be debilitating and may result in serious complications; however, continued chemotherapy is desirable to optimize the patient's odds of survival and tumor remission. We present a case of a 66-year-old male, with a history of metastatic renal clear cell carcinoma, who was diagnosed with grade 3 HFSR triggered by axitinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Our patient was able to expeditiously resume chemotherapy after temporary cessation of axitinib with concurrent application of topical steroids and keratolytics. Expedient return to life-prolonging chemotherapy is of great importance for patients with advanced malignancies; therefore, accurate diagnosis and prompt identification of the offending medication are critical to the management of this entity. We aim to increase the awareness of tyrosine kinase inhibitor-induced HFSR and review the diagnosis and current guidelines for management.

Abstract
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are molecular-targeted anticancer drugs. Their benefits are limited by dermal toxicities, including hand-foot skin reaction (HFSR), which is commonly found in skin areas subjected to friction. The present study aimed to explain the incidence of HFSR in patients treated with TKIs by focusing on keratinocyte toxicity and inhibition of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR), which plays an essential role in angiogenesis. Mice with gene knockout for the immunosuppressive cytokine interleukin-10 exhibited HFSR-like phenotypes, such as cytotoxicity in keratinocytes and increased number and size of blood vessels after repeated doses of regorafenib, sorafenib, and pazopanib, all of which cause high incidence of HFSR, in combination with tape-stripping mimicking skin damage at the friction site. Comprehensive examination of the direct cytotoxic effects of 21 TKIs on primary cultured human keratinocytes revealed that 18 of them reduced the cell viability dose-dependently. Importantly, the ratio of the trough concentration in patients (Ctrough) to the LC50 values of cell viability reduction was higher than unity for four HFSR-inducing TKIs, suggesting that these TKIs cause keratinocyte toxicity at clinically relevant concentrations. In addition, eight HFSR-inducing TKIs caused inhibition of VEGFR-2 kinase activity, which was validated by their ratios of Ctrough to the obtained IC50,VEGFR-2 of more than unity. All 12 TKIs with no reported incidence of HFSR exhibited less than unity values for both Ctrough/LC50,keratinocytes and Ctrough/IC50,VEGFR-2. These results suggested that a combination of keratinocyte toxicity and VEGFR-2 inhibition may explain the incidence of HFSR upon TKI usage in humans.

Abstract
Objective: To describe the frequency and spectrum of treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) of immunotherapy combined with antiangiogenic therapy in patients with melanoma. Methods: This retrospective cohort study included three clinical trials on patients with stage III/IV melanoma treated with anti-PD 1 and antiangiogenic therapy. Results: We analyzed data from 72 patients with a median follow-up time of 25.9 months (95% CI, 9.1-42.7 m). The median treatment duration was 7.5 months (range, 0.7-42.8 m), and the median of treatment cycles was 11.0 (range, 1-90). Most patients (70 of 72 or 97.2%) experienced TRAEs (mostly grades 1 or 2). No drug-related deaths were reported. Most TRAEs were hepatic (75%), endocrine (72.2%), skin (65.3%), and gastrointestinal tract (59.7%) manifestations, followed by myelosuppression (55.6%), renal dysfunction (55.6%), and dyslipidaemia (54.2%). The adverse event (AE) spectra were similar between regimens. Using multivariate Cox proportional risk models showed that hypertension was associated with a long PFS. According to our multivariable logistic regression models, TRAEs were not associated with ORR. Conclusion: We found that the prevalence of AEs was higher than that of anti-PD-1 monotherapy. Most of the AEs were mild. The AE spectra were similar to those seen after anti-PD-1 or antiangiogenic therapy monotherapy, without unexpected AEs. Immunotherapy combined with antiangiogenic therapy was well tolerated. Clinical Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov, identifier NCT03955354.

The toxicity of 1,3,4-thiadiazolium mesoionic derivatives on hepatocarcinoma cells (HepG2) is associated with mitochondrial dysfunction. Chem Biol Interact 2021; 349:109675. [PMID: 34563518 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbi.2021.109675] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2021] [Revised: 08/26/2021] [Accepted: 09/22/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Mesoionic compounds, 4-phenyl-5-(4-X-cinnamoyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazolium-2-phenylamine chloride derivatives (MI-J: X = OH; MI-D: X = NO2), possess significant antitumor and cytotoxic effects on several cancer cells. In this work, we evaluated the cytotoxicity of MI-J and MI-D on human hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG2 cells) grown in either high glucose (HG) or galactose medium (GAL) to clarify whether the effects of mesoionics on mitochondrial bioenergetics are associated with their cytotoxicity in these cells. MI-J and MI-D (5-50 μM) decreased the viability of HepG2 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner, as assessed by MTT, LDH release and dye with crystal violet assays. Both compounds at lower (5 μM) and intermediate (25 μM) concentrations were more toxic to cells grown in GAL medium. MI-J inhibited the basal state of respiration in HepG2 cells cultured in HG and GAL media; however, in GAL medium, this effect occurred at the lowest concentration (5 μM). A leak-state stimulus was observed only after incubation with MI-J (5 μM) for GAL medium. MI-D stimulated and inhibited the leak state in cells grown in HG medium at concentrations of 5 μM and 25 μM, respectively. In cells cultured in GAL medium, respiration was strongly inhibited by MI-D at the highest concentration (25 μM). In contrast, at 5 μM, the mesoionic inhibited the basal and uncoupled states at 30% and 50%, respectively. The inhibition of the basal state by MI-J and MI-D was consistent with the increase in lactate levels in both media, which was higher for the GAL medium. Both mesoionics slightly decreased pyruvate levels only in cells cultured in GAL medium. Additionally, MI-J (25 μM) reduced the ATP amount in cells cultured in both media, while MI-D (25 μM) promoted a reduction only in cells grown in GAL medium. Our results show that MI-J and MI-D depress mitochondrial respiration and consequently change metabolism and reduce ATP levels, effects associated with their toxicity in hepatocarcinoma cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Advances in molecular biology and genetics have contributed to breakthrough treatments directed at specific pathways associated with the development of cancer. Small-molecule inhibitors (Nibs) aimed at a variety of cellular pathways have been efficacious; however, they are associated with significant dermatologic toxicities. METHODS We conducted a comprehensive review of dermatologic toxicities associated with Nibs categorized into the following five groups: (a) mitogen-activated protein kinase; (b) growth factor/multi-tyrosine kinase; (c) cell division/DNA repair; (d) signaling associated with myeloproliferative neoplasms; and (e) other signaling pathways. Prospective phase I, II, or III clinical trials, retrospective literature reviews, systematic reviews/meta-analyses, and case reviews/reports were included for analysis. RESULTS Dermatologic toxicities reviewed were associated with every class of Nibs and ranged from mild to severe or life-threatening adverse skin reactions. Inflammatory reactions manifesting as maculopapular, papulopustular/acneiform, and eczematous lesions were frequent types of dermatologic toxicities seen with Nibs. Squamous cell carcinoma with keratoacanthoma-like features was associated with a subset of Nibs. Substantial overlap in dermatologic toxicities was found between Nibs. CONCLUSIONS Dermatologic toxicities from Nibs are diverse and may overlap between classes of Nibs. Recognition of the various types of toxicities from Nibs is critical for patient care in the era of "oncodermatology/dermatopathology."

Abstract
Hyperkeratotic skin adverse events are a group of toxic effects, characterized by the disruption of epidermal homeostasis and interaction with keratinocyte proliferation/differentiation or keratinocyte survival, and frequently reported with systemic anticancer treatments. These types of reactions include hand-foot skin reaction or palmoplantar keratoderma, induced psoriasis, keratosis pilaris-like or pityriasis rubra pilaris-like rashes, Grover's disease, and contact hyperkeratosis. Cutaneous squamoproliferative lesions are also described because of the presence of abnormal keratinocyte proliferation. They are usually observed with tyrosine kinase inhibitors but have also been described in association with cytotoxic chemotherapeutic agents. Their pathogenesis is related mainly to the disruption of epidermal homeostasis and interaction with keratinocyte proliferation/differentiation or keratinocyte survival caused by anticancer treatment. Early recognition and adequate management are critical to prevent exacerbation of the lesions, to limit treatment interruption, and to minimize impairment of quality of life. This review summarizes the current knowledge concerning the presentation, pathogenesis, and management of secondary hyperkeratotic reactions to anticancer therapies. It also includes hyperkeratotic reactions that have been more recently described with newly approved targeted therapies or immune checkpoint inhibitors, such as keratosis pilaris-like exanthema with second-generation BCR-ABL inhibitors, lamellar ichthyosis-like lesions with ponatinib, pityriasis rubra pilaris with the newly approved selective phosphoinositide 3 kinase inhibitor idelalisib, or psoriasis with anti-programmed death-1 and programmed death ligand-1.
