Wang X, Qin Z, Qiu W, Xu K, Bai Y, Zeng B, Ma Y, Yang S, Shi Y, Fan Y. Novel EGFR inhibitors against resistant L858R/T790M/C797S mutant for intervention of non-small cell lung cancer. Eur J Med Chem 2024; 277:116711. [PMID: 39094277 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2024.116711] [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: 06/17/2024] [Revised: 07/23/2024] [Accepted: 07/23/2024] [Indexed: 08/04/2024]
Abstract
To overcome C797S mutation, the latest and most common resistance mechanism in the clinical treatment of third-generation EGFR inhibitor, a novel series of substituted 6-(2-aminopyrimidine)-indole derivatives were designed and synthesized. Through the structure-activity relationship (SAR) study, compound 11eg was identified as a novel and potent EGFR L858R/T790M/C797S inhibitor (IC50 = 0.053 μM) but had a weak effect on EGFRWT (IC50 = 1.05 μM). 11eg significantly inhibited the proliferation of the non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells harboring EGFRL858R/T790M/C797S with an IC50 of 0.052 μM. 11eg also showed potent inhibitory activity against other NSCLC cell lines harboring main EGFR mutants. Furthermore, 11eg exhibited much superior activity in arresting cell cycle and inducing apoptosis of NSCLC cells with mutant EGFRC797S. It blocked cellular EGFR signaling. Importantly, 11eg markedly suppressed the tumor growth in in vivo xenograft mouse model with good safety. Additionally, 11eg displayed good microsomal stability. These results demonstrated the potential of 11eg with novel scaffold as a promising lead compound targeting EGFRC797S to guide in-depth structural optimization.

Abstract
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, especially non-small cell lung cancer. Early diagnosis and better treatment choices have already provided a more promising prognosis for cancer patients. In targeted therapy, antagonists target specific genes supporting cancer growth, proliferation and metastasis. With the incorporation of targeted therapies in routine cancer therapy, it is imperative that the array of toxicities associated with these agents must be well-recognized and managed, especially since these toxicities are distinct from those seen with conventional cytotoxic agents. Drug-related nephrotoxicity has attracted attention when initiating cancer therapy. Our review aims to summarize the adverse renal effects caused by targeted therapy during lung cancer treatment, mainly focusing on EGFR and ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Also, we discuss the possible mechanism of the side effect and provide managements to help improve the renal function in clinical practice.

Ocul Surf 2024; 33:23-30. [PMID: 38508390 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtos.2024.03.008] [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: 10/22/2023] [Revised: 02/11/2024] [Accepted: 03/16/2024] [Indexed: 03/22/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the risk and incidence of keratitis following treatment with epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors (EGFRi) and subtypes of EGFRi-associated keratitis. METHODS This multi-center cohort study included EGFRi-treated patients and non-users with lung cancer between 2010 and 2023. EGFRi included first-generation agent gefitinib and erlotinib, second-generation agent afatinib, and third-generation agent osimertinib. The primary outcome was new-onset keratitis. Cox proportional hazard models with multivariable adjustment were applied to determine the effect of EGFRi on keratitis over time. Subgroup analyses were conducted, stratified by agents of EGFRi. Sub-outcome analyses were performed to identify the subtypes of EGFRi-associated keratitis. RESULTS A total of 1549 EGFRi-treated patients and 6146 non-users were included. 38 (2.5%) EGFRi-treated patients developed keratitis. The incidence of keratitis in EGFRi-treated patients was significantly higher than that in controls (incidence rate, IR, per 1000 person-years = 14.7 vs 4.49, p < 0.0001). EGFRi-treated patients presented with an increased risk for keratitis (adjusted hazard ratio, aHR = 3.14, 95% CI = 1.85-5.35, p < 0.001). Erlotinib (aHR = 2.64, 95% CI = 1.35-5.15, p = 0.004), afatinib (aHR = 4.42, 95% CI = 2.17-9.02, p < 0.001), and osimertinib (aHR = 4.67, 95% CI = 1.60-13.64, p = 0.005), but not gefitinib (aHR = 2.30, 95% CI = 0.96-5.55, p = 0.063), significantly contributed to the risk of keratitis. Subtypes of EGFRi-associated keratitis included corneal ulcer (IR = 2.31 vs 0.166, p < 0.0001) and keratoconjunctivitis (IR = 9.27 vs 2.91, p < 0.0001). None of the EGFRi-treated patients developed perforated corneal ulcer, interstitial and deep keratitis, or corneal neovascularization. CONCLUSION Treatment with EGFRi was associated with an increased risk of keratitis. Ocular toxicity of EGFRi was highest for third-generation agents, followed by second-generation agents, and then first-generation agents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) remain the frontline standard of care for patients with EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer. An updated toxicity profile of EGFR-TKIs proves valuable in guiding clinical decision making. OBJECTIVE This study comprehensively assessed the risk of EGFR-TKI-related adverse events (AEs) involving different systems/organs. METHODS We systematically searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane library for phase III randomized controlled trials comparing EGFR-TKI monotherapy with placebo or chemotherapy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. The odds ratio (OR) of all-grade and high-grade adverse events (AEs) including dermatologic, gastrointestinal, hematologic, hepatic, and respiratory events was pooled for a meta-analysis. Subgroup analyses based on the control arm (placebo or chemotherapy) and individual EGFR-TKIs (erlotinib, gefitinib, afatinib, dacomitinib, and osimertinib) were conducted. RESULTS Thirty-four randomized controlled trials comprising 15,887 patients were included. The pooled OR showed EGFR-TKIs were associated with a significantly increased risk of all-grade dermatologic AEs including paronychia, pruritus, rash, skin exfoliation, and skin fissures, gastrointestinal AEs including abdominal pain, diarrhea, dyspepsia, mouth ulceration, and stomatitis, hepatic AEs including elevated alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase, and respiratory AEs including epistaxis, interstitial lung disease and rhinorrhea. Furthermore, a significantly increased risk of high-grade rash (OR 7.83, 95% confidence interval [CI] 5.11, 12.00), diarrhea (OR 2.10, 95% CI 1.44, 3.05), elevated alanine aminotransferase (OR 3.93, 95% CI 1.71, 9.03), elevated aspartate aminotransferase (OR 3.22, 95% CI 1.05, 9.92) and interstitial lung disease (OR 2.35, 95% CI 1.38, 4.01) was observed in patients receiving EGFR-TKIs. When stratified by individual EGFR-TKIs, gefitinib showed a significant association with all-grade and high-grade hepatotoxicity and interstitial lung disease. CONCLUSIONS Epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors were associated with a significantly increased risk of various types of AEs. Clinicians should be vigilant about the risks of these EGFR-TKI-related AEs, particularly for severe hepatotoxicity and interstitial lung disease, to facilitate early detection and proper management.

Abstract
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) or pneumonitis caused by epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) or immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) is a major concern in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Whether the addition of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and VEGF receptor (VEGFR) inhibitors can reduce the incidence of drug-induced ILD remains unclear. We conducted a systematic review to assess the incidence of ILD induced by EGFR-TKIs or ICIs in the presence or absence of VEGF/VEGFR inhibitors in relevant randomized trials between January 2009 and October 2023. The primary outcome was the odds ratio for the incidence of ILD in all patients worldwide and Asians. Secondary outcomes were the odds ratios (ORs) of the incidence at grade-3 or higher ILD in all patients worldwide and Asians. We identified 13 randomized studies, one sub-analysis in the EGFR-TKI group, and three randomized studies in the ICI group. In the EGFR-TKI group, the OR of ILD incidence at any grade with VEGF/VEGFR inhibitors was 0.54 (95% CI, 0.32-0.90; p = 0.02), which represented a significantly lower incidence than that without VEGF/VEGFR inhibitors. Contrarily, the OR of ILD incidence at grade ≥ 3 with VEGF/VEGFR inhibitors was 1.00 (95% CI, 0.43-2.36; p = 0.99). In all subjects in the ICI group, the OR of ILD incidence at any grade with VEGF/VEGFR inhibitors was 0.78 (95% CI, 0.51-1.21; p = 0.27). The systematic review demonstrated that the addition of VEGF/VEGFR inhibitors could reduce the incidence of drug-induced ILD at any grade caused by EGFR-TKI in patients with NSCLC but could not reduce that at grade ≥ 3. The ILD induced by ICIs remains undetermined owing to the limited number of randomized trials for which ILD data are available.

Abstract
Sutetinib is an irreversible inhibitor of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and showed favorable efficacy and safety in patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harbouring nondrug-resistant rare EGFR mutations. To evaluate the potential food effect, eighteen healthy Chinese subjects were enrolled in a single-centre, randomized, open-label, two-sequence, two-period crossover study. Sutetinib was administered as a single oral 100 mg under fasting or fed conditions, and pharmacokinetic sampling was performed following each dose and analysed by a validated liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry method. Safety and tolerability were also evaluated. Food intake slightly decreased maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to infinity (AUC0 - inf) of sutetinib (geometric least-squares mean [GLSM] ratio, 80.94% and 86.11%; 90% confidence interval [CI], 68.43-95.72 and 75.88-97.73) and its active metabolite sutetinib N-Oxide (GLSM ratio, 75.58% and 84.00%; 90% CI, 65.69-86.95 and 75.42-93.56), respectively. In addition, the time to maximum plasma concentration (Tmax) of both sutetinib and its metabolite has been prolonged by 2 h under fed conditions. A total of 31 adverse events (AEs) occurred during the study, with no serious adverse events (SAE) reported, and no obvious difference was observed between the fasting and fed groups. Our results demonstrated that a high-fat and high-calorie diet caused a significant delay in drug absorption and a marginal reduction in drug exposure. Sutetinib was generally well tolerated in healthy Chinese subjects. (This trial was registered at http://www.chinadrugtrials.org.cn . The registration No. is CTR20201933, and the date of registration is 2020-10-16).

Abstract
This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to verify the association between the genetic variants of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding cassette subfamily B member 1 (ABCB1) and ATP-binding cassette subfamily G member 2 (ABCG2) genes and the presence and severity of gefitinib-associated adverse reactions. We systematically searched PubMed, Virtual Health Library/Bireme, Scopus, Embase, and Web of Science databases for relevant studies published up to February 2024. In total, five studies were included in the review. Additionally, eight genetic variants related to ABCB1 (rs1045642, rs1128503, rs2032582, and rs1025836) and ABCG2 (rs2231142, rs2231137, rs2622604, and 15622C>T) genes were analyzed. Meta-analysis showed a significant association between the ABCB1 gene rs1045642 TT genotype and presence of diarrhea (OR = 5.41, 95% CI: 1.38-21.14, I2 = 0%), the ABCB1 gene rs1128503 TT genotype and CT + TT group and the presence of skin rash (OR = 4.37, 95% CI: 1.51-12.61, I2 = 0% and OR = 6.99, 95%CI: 1.61-30.30, I2= 0%, respectively), and the ABCG2 gene rs2231142 CC genotype and presence of diarrhea (OR = 3.87, 95% CI: 1.53-9.84, I2 = 39%). No ABCB1 or ABCG2 genes were positively associated with the severity of adverse reactions associated with gefitinib. In conclusion, this study showed that ABCB1 and ABCG2 variants are likely to exhibit clinical implications in predicting the presence of adverse reactions to gefitinib.

Risk factors for interstitial lung disease in patients with non-small cell lung cancer with epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Respir Investig 2024; 62:481-487. [PMID: 38569441 DOI: 10.1016/j.resinv.2024.03.007] [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: 11/24/2023] [Revised: 02/08/2024] [Accepted: 03/14/2024] [Indexed: 04/05/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) can potentially result in interstitial lung disease (ILD), which can substantially impact a patient's quality of life, subsequently leading to the interruption or discontinuation of EGRF-TKI treatment. Clinicians, therefore, need to thoroughly assess patients to determine if they are at risk for ILD. METHODS We searched for observational study in the following databases: MEDLINE via the PubMed, CENTRAL, and IchushiWeb. The primary outcome was risk factors for the development of ILD, while the secondary outcome was risk factors for the severity of ILD. Of the 1602 studies returned, we selected 11 for meta-analysis, performed using a random-effects model. RESULTS Risk factors for developing ILD were sex (odds ratio (OR), 1.87; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.08-3.22; I2 = 0%; P = 0.02), smoking history (OR, 2.13; 95% CI, 1.51-3.00; I2 = 3 4%; P = 0.0001), and history of ILD (OR = 5.95; 95% CI, 3.34-10.59; I2 = 67%; P = 0.0009). Age, previous thoracic surgery or radiotherapy, performance status, histological type of lung cancer, and treatment line were not statistically significant risk factors for ILD. Risk factors identified in one study were serum albumin level, history of nivolumab use, radiographic residual lung volume, and history of pulmonary infection. CONCLUSIONS We identified risk factors for developing ILD in patients with non-small cell lung cancer treated with EGFR-TKIs.

Abstract
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a prominent target for anticancer therapy due to its role in activating several cell signaling cascades. Clinically approved EGFR inhibitors are reported to show treatment resistance and toxicity, this study, therefore, investigates Moringa oleifera phytochemicals to find potent and safe anti-EGFR compounds. For that, phytochemicals were screened based on drug-likeness and molecular docking analysis followed by molecular dynamics simulation, density functional theory analysis and ADMET analysis to identify the effective inhibitors of EGFR tyrosine kinase (EGFR-TK) domain. Known EGFR-TK inhibitors (1-4 generations) were used as control. Among 146 phytochemicals, 136 compounds showed drug-likeness, of which Delta 7-Avenasterol was the most potential EGFR-TK inhibitor with a binding energy of -9.2 kcal/mol followed by 24-Methylenecholesterol (-9.1 kcal/mol), Campesterol (-9.0 kcal/mol) and Ellagic acid (-9.0 kcal/mol). In comparison, the highest binding affinity from control drugs was displayed by Rociletinib (-9.0 kcal/mol). The molecular dynamics simulation (100 ns) exhibited the structural stability of native EGFR-TK and protein-inhibitor complexes. Further, MM/PBSA computed the binding free energies of protein complex with Delta 7-Avenasterol, 24-Methylenecholesterol, Campesterol and Ellagic acid as -154.559 ± 18.591 kJ/mol, -139.176 ± 19.236 kJ/mol, -136.212 ± 17.598 kJ/mol and -139.513 ± 23.832 kJ/mol, respectively. Non-polar interactions were the major contributors to these energies. The density functional theory analysis also established the stability of these inhibitor compounds. ADMET analysis depicted acceptable outcomes for all top phytochemicals without displaying any toxicity. In conclusion, this report has identified promising EGFR-TK inhibitors to treat several cancers that can be further investigated through laboratory and clinical tests.

Abstract
In this study, we identified a newly synthesized compound 7o with potent inhibition on EGFR primary mutants (L858R, Del19) and drug-resistant mutant T790M with nanomolar IC50 values. 7o showed strong antiproliferative effects against EGFR mutant-driven non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells such as H1975, PC-9 and HCC827, over cells expressing EGFRWT. Molecular docking was performed to investigate the possible binding modes of 7o inside the binding site of EGFRL858R/T790M and EGFRWT. Analysis of cell cycle evidenced that 7o induced cell cycle arrest in G1 phases in the EGFR mutant cells, H1975 and PC-9, which resulted in decreased S-phase populations. Moreover, compound 7o induced cancer cell apoptosis in in vitro assays. In addition, 7o inhibited cellular phosphorylation of EGFR. In vivo, oral administration of 7o caused rapid tumor regression in H1975 xenograft model. Therefore, 7o might deserve further optimization as cancer treatment agent for EGFR mutant-driven NSCLC.

Abstract
Gefitinib is a key drug used in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with EGFR mutations. Gefitinib therapy is superior to conventional chemotherapy for the progression-free survival rate of patients with EGFR mutations. However, 10-26% of patients develop grade 3 or higher hepatotoxicity during gefitinib treatment; therefore, the development of preclinical tests for hepatotoxicity prior to clinical use is desirable. The present study evaluated the use of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and iPSC-derived hepatocytes (iPSC-heps), as a platform for preclinical test development. Patient-derived iPSCs were generated by reprogramming peripheral blood mononuclear cells obtained from two groups of gefitinib-treated patients with severe hepatotoxicity [toxicity group (T group)] or mild hepatotoxicity [no clinical toxicity group (N group)]. To examine the hepatotoxicity, the iPSCs from both T and N groups were differentiated into hepatocytes to obtain iPSC-heps. Differentiation was confirmed by measuring the expression levels of hepatocyte markers, such as albumin or α-fetoprotein, via western blotting and quantitative PCR analyses. Cytotoxicity in iPSCs and iPSC-heps after gefitinib treatment was evaluated using a lactate dehydrogenase release assay. The gefitinib-induced cytotoxicity in iPSCs from the T group was significantly higher than that from the N group, whereas there were no significant differences between the groups of iPSC-heps. These results suggested that using iPSCs in preclinical assessment may be a good indicator for the prediction of gefitinib-induced cytotoxicity in clinical use.

Abstract
To determine the expression of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) in patients with fragility fractures (FFs) and its effect on the biological function of osteoblasts. The study included 32 patients with FFs who were diagnosed and treated in the research group and 30 concurrent healthy individuals in the control group. We observed STAT3 mRNA expression in the patients with FFs and controls and altered STAT3 mRNA to detect changes in the proliferation, invasion, and apoptosis of osteoblasts. The patients with FFs presented higher serum STAT3 mRNA expression than the controls (P < 0.05). We plotted receiver operating characteristic curves based on the STAT3 mRNA expression and found that the area under the curve for STAT3 mRNA was 0.856 (P < 0.05). Transfection of STAT3 mRNA mimics resulted in increased STAT3 mRNA expression, inhibited cell proliferation as detected by an MTT assay, and increased apoptosis rate, which was determined using flow cytometry with human fetal osteoblastic cell line 1.19 cells. STAT3 mRNA expression was elevated in the serum of patients with FFs and can be used as a biomarker for the diagnosis of the disease. Regulating STAT3 mRNA can inhibit the proliferation and induce the osteoblasts apoptosis.

Abstract
The identification of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) mutations in lung adenocarcinoma has facilitated the development of personalized medicine based on oncogenic drivers. EGFR-Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (TKIs) are part of the targeted therapy; they impede the phosphorylation of the intracellular tyrosine kinase component of EGFR and consequently block signal transduction pathways. These drugs inhibit the proliferation and survival of tumor cells, leading to long-term progression-free survival and overall survival. Diarrhea is one of the most frequent adverse events associated with EGFR-TKIs, affecting at least 18% of patients and reaching up to 95% in some cases. Diarrhea should be managed carefully given its association with important complications, treatment interruptions, and dose reductions. Moreover, nutritional status and quality of life (QoL) can deteriorate due to severe diarrhea. Changes in diet, such as increment of fiber, supplementation with glutamine, and use of probiotics, may contribute to a decrease in the incidence of diarrhea. Improving the control of diarrhea can provide a significant benefit to the QoL of patients.

Abstract
Afatinib is an irreversible tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) targeting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), which is utilized for the treatment of patients with advanced lung cancer that harbors EGFR mutations. No studies have evaluated the clinical efficacy of LCT in patients treated with first-line afatinib. In this study, we retrospectively enrolled patients with advanced lung adenocarcinomas harboring susceptible EGFR mutations who were diagnosed and treated with first-line afatinib in three hospitals. A total of 254 patients were enrolled, including 30 (12%) patients who received LCT (15 patients received definitive radiotherapy for the primary lung mass and 15 patients received curative surgery). Patients who received LCT had a significantly longer PFS than those who did not (median PFS: 32.8 vs. 14.5 months, p = 0.0008). Patients who received LCT had significantly longer OS than those who did not (median OS: 67.1 vs. 34.5 months, p = 0.0011). Multivariable analysis showed LCT was an independent prognostic factor for improved PFS (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] [95% confidence interval (CI)]: 0.44 [0.26–0.73], p = 0.0016) and OS (aHR [95% CI]: 0.26 [0.12–0.54], p = 0.0004). The analyses using propensity score-weighting showed consistent results. We conclude that LCT may improve clinical outcomes, in terms of PFS and OS, in patients with advanced EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinomas who are treated with first-line afatinib.

Abstract
Small molecule protein kinase inhibitors (PKIs) have become an effective strategy for cancer patients. However, hepatotoxicity is a major safety concern of these drugs, since the majority are reported to increase transaminases, and few of them (Idelalisib, Lapatinib, Pazopanib, Pexidartinib, Ponatinib, Regorafenib, Sunitinib) have a boxed label warning. The exact rate of PKI-induced hepatoxicity is not well defined due to the fact that the majority of data arise from pre-registration or registration trials on fairly selected patients, and the post-marketing data are often based only on the most severe described cases, whereas most real practice studies do not include drug-related hepatotoxicity as an end point. Although these side effects are usually reversible by dose adjustment or therapy suspension, or by switching to an alternative PKI, and fatality is uncommon, all patients undergoing PKIs should be carefully pre-evaluated and monitored. The management of this complication requires an individually tailored reappraisal of the risk/benefit ratio, especially in patients who are responding to therapy. This review reports the currently available data on the risk and management of hepatotoxicity of all the approved PKIs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate clinical data regarding the use of amivantamab and mobocertinib for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 20 insertion mutation non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and assess their potential impact on the care of patients. DATA SOURCES A comprehensive literature search of PubMed and Clinicaltrials.gov was conducted using the terms amivantamab, Rybrevant, JNJ-61186372, mobocertinib, Exkivity, TAK-788. STUDY SELECTION AND DATA EXTRACTION Relevant English-language clinical trials were evaluated. DATA SYNTHESIS Amivantamab and mobocertinib were Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved based on phases 1 and 2 studies. Amivantamab demonstrated an overall response rate (ORR) of 40% and median progression-free survival (PFS) of 8.3 months. Patients commonly experienced rash (86%), paronychia (45%), and stomatitis (21%). Mobocertinib demonstrated an ORR of 28% and median PFS of 7.3 months in phase 1/2 study. Patients frequently experienced diarrhea (91%), rash (45%), and paronychia (38%). Cardiac monitoring is recommended with mobocertinib due to risk of QTc prolongation and cardiac failure. RELEVANCE TO PATIENT CARE For NSCLC patients who possess an EGFR exon 20 insertion mutation, amivantamab and mobocertinib are indicated as second-line therapy. Ongoing studies are evaluating these therapies as first-line monotherapy and as part of combination regimens in multiple cancer types. Dosage forms, drug interactions, and patient comorbidities should be considered when deciding which of the 2 agents may be most appropriate. CONCLUSION Amivantamab and mobocertinib target an uncommon NSCLC mutation that has historically marked a poor prognosis because of innate resistance to previously approved EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Promising results from early phase trials supported accelerated FDA approval.

Evaluation of factors affecting epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor-induced hepatotoxicity in Japanese patients with non-small cell lung cancer: a two-center retrospective study. J Pharm Health Care Sci 2022; 8:28. [DOI: 10.1186/s40780-022-00258-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2022] [Accepted: 09/28/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Abstract
Background
Gefitinib and erlotinib, are epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors, and are currently recommended for non-small cell lung cancer stage IV in the elderly and in patients with decreased performance status in the Japanese Lung Cancer Society Guideline, but they occasionally caused severe hepatotoxicity requiring postponement or modification of treatment. However, little is known about the risk factors for hepatotoxicity in patients receiving gefitinib and erlotinib. In this study, we investigated the factors influencing hepatotoxicity in Japanese non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated with gefitinib or erlotinib monotherapy.
Methods
Japanese patients with NSCLC who started gefitinib or erlotinib monotherapy from January 2005 to December 2017 at Kanazawa University Hospital or Kanazawa Medical University Hospital were included in this study. Factors affecting hepatotoxicity were retrospectively investigated by multiple logistic regression analysis.
Results
A total of 102 patients who received gefitinib and 95 patients who received erlotinib were included in the analysis. In the gefitinib group, a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 was associated with an increased risk of hepatotoxicity (OR = 4.571, 95% CI = 1.486–14.056, P = 0.008). In the erlotinib group, concomitant use of acid-suppressing medications (AS), namely proton pump inhibitors or histamine-2 receptor antagonists, was associated with a reduced risk of hepatotoxicity (OR = 0.341, 95% CI = 0.129–0.900, P = 0.030).
Conclusions
BMI ≥ 25 in patients treated with gefitinib increased the risk of hepatotoxicity. In contrast, AS combination with erlotinib reduced the risk of hepatotoxicity. Thus, because different factors influence the risk of hepatotoxicity, monitoring for adverse events should take into account patient background factors and concomitant medications.

Abstract
Interstitial lung diseases (ILD) are relatively rare and sometimes become life threatening. In particular, rapidly progressive ILD, which frequently presents as acute lung injury (ALI) on lung histopathology, shows poor prognosis if proper and immediate treatments are not initiated. These devastating conditions include acute exacerbation of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (AE-IPF), clinically amyopathic dermatomyositis (CADM), epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI)-induced lung injury, and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) infection named coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). In this review, clinical information, physical findings, laboratory examinations, and findings on lung high-resolution computed tomography and lung histopathology are presented, focusing on majorly damaged cells in each disease. Furthermore, treatments that should be immediately initiated in clinical practice for each disease are illustrated to save patients with these diseases.

A Phase II Trial on Osimertinib as a First-Line Treatment for EGFR Mutation-Positive Advanced NSCLC in Elderly Patients: The SPIRAL-0 Study. Oncologist 2022; 27:903-e834.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osimertinib is one of the standard first-line treatments for advanced non-small cell lung cancer in patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations, because it achieves significantly longer progression-free survival (PFS) than conventional first-line treatments (hazard ratio: 0.46). However, the efficacy and safety of osimertinib as a first-line treatment for patients aged ≥75 years remain unclear. METHODS This phase II study was performed to prospectively investigate the efficacy and safety of osimertinib for elderly patients with EGFR mutation-positive advanced non-small cell lung cancer. The primary endpoint was 1-year PFS rate; secondary endpoints were overall response rate (ORR), PFS, overall survival (OS), and safety. RESULTS Thirty-eight patients were included in the analysis. The 1-year PFS rate was 59.4% (95% confidence interval [CI], 46.1%-72.7%), which did not meet the primary endpoint (the threshold 1-year PFS rate of 50% predicted using data from the NEJ003 study). The most common grade 3/4 adverse events were rash/dermatitis acneiform/ALT increased/hypokalemia (2 patients, 5%). Seven patients developed pneumonitis (17.5%). There were no other cases of treatment discontinuation due to adverse events other than pneumonitis. CONCLUSION Although this study did not meet the primary endpoint, osimertinib was tolerable for elderly patients with EGFR mutation-positive advanced non-small cell lung cancer.

Comparison of aprepitant versus desloratadine for EGFR-TKI-induced pruritus: A randomized phase 2 clinical trial. Cancer 2022; 128:3969-3976. [PMID: 36197287 DOI: 10.1002/cncr.34474] [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: 04/17/2022] [Revised: 07/06/2022] [Accepted: 08/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pruritus is one of the most common and challenging side effects of epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) and has impaired patients' quality of life and treatment compliance. Our study evaluated the efficacy and safety of aprepitant in managing EGFR-TKIs-related pruritus. METHODS This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was conducted between December 2016 and August 2020 in China. Patients were eligible if they were 18 years or older and had histologically confirmed locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with first onset of moderate to severe pruritus during EGFR-TKI treatment. RESULTS A total of 130 eligible patients were randomly assigned to aprepitant (n = 65) or desloratadine (n = 65) groups. The median (interquartile range [Q1, Q3]) age was 63 (54, 70) years, and 79 (60.8%) were women. Mean visual analog scale scores at baseline were 6.35 (95% confidence interval [CI], 5.89-6.82) in the aprepitant group and 5.94 (95% CI, 5.56-6.32) in the desloratadine group. After 1 week of treatment, 33 (53.2%) patients responded to aprepitant, which was significantly higher than that of 14 (23.7%) patients responded to desloratadine (p = .001). Moreover, patients in the aprepitant group had a significantly shorter response time than patients in the desloratadine group (mean [days], 13.39 [95% CI, 11.08-15.70] vs. 16.67 [95% CI, 14.19-19.13], p = .04). The most frequent drug-related adverse events in aprepitant group and desloratadine were constipation and dry mouth, and all adverse events were grade 1-2. CONCLUSIONS To the authors' knowledge, this is the first study to prospectively present that aprepitant elicited a better and faster response and mild toxicity for managing EGFR-TKI induced pruritus than desloratadine.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor/ Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR/ALK TKIs) may provoke fatal interstitial pneumonitis (IP). The study was conducted to characterize the main characteristics of EGFR/ALK TKI-induced IP and identify factors associated with death. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A disproportionality analysis was conducted using Vigibase, the World Health Organization pharmacovigilance database. Clinical features of patients with EGFR/ALK-TKI-related IP were compared between the fatal and non-fatal groups. RESULTS A total of 3355 EGFR/ALK-TKI-IP events were identified, over half of them from Asia (57.47%) and mostly the aged (63.21%). Osimertinib appeared the strongest IP association. The median time to onset (TTO) was 40 (interquartile range [IQR] 16-84) days. There were significant differences between the fatal and non-fatal groups in terms of reporting year and TKI regimens (P < 0.05). The fatality rate of erlotinib-induced IP was the highest (35.54%). CONCLUSION Our study showed that EGFR/ALK TKIs were associated with IP that had a high fatality rate and tended to occur earlier in fatal cases. It is necessary to raise awareness of IP surveillance when EGFR/ALK TKIs were administered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Immune-mediated pneumonitis has a high mortality rate; however, information regarding the related risk factors remains limited. This study aimed to analyze risk factors for pneumonitis, including smoking and lung metastasis (LM), in patients with extrapulmonary primary tumors. METHODS Data of 110 patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) (nivolumab/pembrolizumab) for treating extrapulmonary primary tumors at the Shiga University of Medical Science Hospital between January 2015 and December 2019 were retrospectively collected. The association between the onset of pneumonitis and treatment-related factors was analyzed by logistic regression. The severity of pneumonitis was graded according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0. Risk factors, such as the absence or presence of interstitial lung disease (ILD) and LM, or other clinical factors, including smoking status before ICI administration, were analyzed. RESULTS Multivariate analyses indicated that the amount of smoking was significantly associated with an increase in the development of all-grade pneumonitis types (odds ratio (OR) = 20.33, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 20.03-20.66; p = 0.029). LM and ILD were significantly related to an increase in the development of symptomatic pneumonitis (≥ Grade 2) (OR = 10.08, 95% CI = 1.69-199.81; p = 0.076, and OR = 6.76, 95% CI = 1.13-40.63; p = 0.037, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Pre-screening for ILD and LM and recognizing patients' smoking history is important for determining the risk of ICI-induced pneumonitis and allowing safe ICI administration.

Abstract
Abstract
The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) C797S mutation is the most common on-target resistance mechanism to osimertinib in patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Currently there are no effective treatment options for NSCLC patients harboring EGFR C797S triple mutants (Del19/T790M/C797S and L858R/T790M/C797S). Herein, we report an orally bioavailable EGFR PROTAC, HJM-561, which selectively degrades the EGFR C797S-containing triple mutants. HJM-561 potently inhibits the proliferation of Del19/T790M/C797S and L858R/T790M/C797S Ba/F3 cells while sparing cells expressing wild type EGFR. Oral administration of HJM-561 shows robust anti-tumor activity in EGFR Del19/T790M/C797S-driven Ba/F3 CDX and PDX models that were resistant to osimertinib treatment. Taken together, our results suggest that HJM-561 is a promising therapeutic option for overcoming EGFR triple mutation-mediated drug resistance in NSCLC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osimertinib became the standard treatment for patients with untreated EGFR-mutant advanced non-small cell lung cancer (aNSCLC) following results reported in the phase III randomized FLAURA trial. Because of strict exclusion criteria, patient populations included in pivotal trials are only partially representative of real-world patients. METHODS We designed an observational, prospective, multicenter study enrolling patients with EGFR-mutant aNSCLC receiving first-line osimertinib to evaluate effectiveness, safety, and progression patterns in the real-world. RESULTS At data cutoff, 126 White patients from nine oncology centers were included. At diagnosis, 16 patients (12.7%) had a performance status (PS) ≥2 and 38 (30.2%) had brain metastases. Overall response rate (ORR) was 73%, disease control rate (DCR) 96.0%. After a median follow-up of 12.3 months, median time to treatment discontinuation (mTTD) was 25.3 months, median progression-free-survival (mPFS) was 18.9 months and median overall survival (mOS) was not reached (NR). One hundred and ten patients (87%) experienced adverse events (AEs), 42 (33%) of grade 3-4, with venous thromboembolism (VTE) as the most common (n = 10, 7.9%). No difference in rates of VTE was reported according to age, PS, comorbidity, and tumor load. We observed longer mTTD in patients without symptoms (NR vs. 18.8 months) and with fewer than three metastatic sites at diagnosis (NR vs. 21.4 months). Patients without brain metastases experienced longer mPFS (NR vs. 13.3 months). No difference in survival outcome was observed according to age, comorbidity, and type of EGFR mutation. Isolated progression and progression in fewer than three sites were associated with longer time to treatment discontinuation (TTD). CONCLUSION Osimertinib confirmed effectiveness and safety in the real world, although thromboembolism was more frequent than previously reported.

[PMID: 35369607 PMCID: PMC8966141 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtocrr.2022.100303] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2021] [Revised: 02/14/2022] [Accepted: 02/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Ramucirumab (RAM) plus erlotinib was found to have superior progression-free survival (PFS) versus placebo plus erlotinib in untreated EGFR-mutated metastatic NSCLC in the global phase 3 RELAY study. RELAY+ was an open-label, two-period, single-arm, exploratory study of RAM plus gefitinib (GEF; period 1) and RAM plus osimertinib (period 2) in East Asia (NCT02411448). Methods Period 1 evaluated RAM (10 mg/kg) plus GEF (250 mg/d) in patients with untreated EGFR-mutated metastatic NSCLC. Period 2 evaluated RAM plus osimertinib (80 mg/d) in patients with disease progression who acquired T790M mutation in period 1. Exploratory end points included 1-year PFS rate (primary), other efficacy parameters, safety, and biomarker analyses of plasma (baseline, on-treatment, follow-up) using next-generation sequencing. Results From December 2017 to August 2018, a total of 82 patients were enrolled and started treatment (period 1, RAM + GEF). The 1-year PFS rate was 62.9% (95% confidence interval: 50.3–73.1). Treatment-emergent adverse events of grade three or higher were reported with RAM plus GEF in 60 of 82 patients (73.2%; five patients [6.1%] grade four). There were two deaths owing to adverse events that occurred (acute cardiac failure, congestive cardiac failure). T790M rate at disease progression in plasma was 81.0% (13 of 16 patients). Conclusions RELAY+ was found to have a favorable benefit–risk profile for RAM plus GEF in first-line treatment of East Asian patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC.

Pre-clinical drug-drug interactions (DDIs) of gefitinib with/without losartan and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs): citalopram, fluoxetine, fluvoxamine, paroxetine, sertraline, and venlafaxine. CURRENT RESEARCH IN PHARMACOLOGY AND DRUG DISCOVERY 2022; 3:100112.

Abstract
Objective Methods Results Conclusion In vitro hepatocytes assays can predict relevant drug-drug interactions (DDIs). Proof-of concept data testing can provide a clear insight of multidrug regimen DDIs. Classifying drugs as inhibitors/inducers alone cannot successfully identify DDIs. Regimens requiring three or more drugs may cause significant DDIs (p-value < 0.05). SSRI metabolism by human hepatocytes can be affected by gefitinib and losartan.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the efficacy of prophylactic traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) on skin toxicities in patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma treated with first-line epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in a randomized-controlled trial (RCT). MATERIALS AND METHODS This pilot study was a prospective, single-center, double-blinded RCT. The study enrolled patients with a new diagnosis of locally advanced and metastatic lung adenocarcinoma harboring EGFR mutations who were treated with first-line afatinib from July 1, 2016 to December 31, 2017. Thirty patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were assigned to the TCM and placebo groups with simple randomization. TCM and placebo were initiated at the same time as afatinib and were administered for 3 months. The survival of each subject was followed until 3 years. RESULTS There were 36 patients with newly diagnosed lung adenocarcinoma during the study period. After the exclusion of 6 patients, the remaining 30 patients were assigned to the TCM (n = 14) and placebo (n = 16) groups comprising the intention-to-treat population. The time to first skin toxicity was 22.3 days in the TCM group and 17.6 days in the placebo group (P = .510) in the per-protocol population. The analysis of the present pilot study results determined that the difference in time to first skin toxicity between the 2 groups would reach statistical significance with a sample size of 237 based on a power of 0.8. There were significant differences in certain subscales of quality of life between the TCM and placebo groups; however, there was no significant difference in progression-free survival or overall survival between the 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS Integrative TCM may prolong the time to first skin toxicity in patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma treated with first-line afatinib. Prophylactic TCM could delay skin toxicity of any grade and reduce the incidence of grade 3 skin toxicity. Future large-scale RCTs are warranted to validate these findings. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT05204758. Registered on 24 Jan 2022.

Challenge and countermeasures for EGFR targeted therapy in non-small cell lung cancer. Biochim Biophys Acta Rev Cancer 2021; 1877:188645.

Abstract
Lung cancer causes the highest mortality compared to other cancers in the world according to the latest WHO reports. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) contributes about 85% of total lung cancer cases. An extensive number of risk factors are attributed to the progression of lung cancer. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), one of the most frequently mutant driver genes, is closely involved in the development of lung cancer through regulation of the PI3K/AKT and MAPK pathways. As a representative of precision medicine, EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) targeted therapy significantly relieves the development of activating mutant EGFR-driven NSCLC. However, treatment with TKIs facilitates the emergence of acquired resistance that continues to pose a significant hurdle with respect to EGFR targeted therapy. In this review, the development of current approved EGFR-TKIs as well as the related supporting clinical trials are summarized and discussed. Mechanisms of action and resistance were addressed respectively, which serve as important guides to understanding acquired resistance. We also explored the corresponding combination treatment options according to different resistance mechanisms. Future challenges include more comprehensive characterization of unclear resistance mechanisms in different populations and the development of more efficient and precision synthetic therapeutic strategies.

Relationship between Plasma Concentrations of Afatinib and the Onset of Diarrhea in Patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. BIOLOGY 2021; 10:biology10101054. [PMID: 34681153 PMCID: PMC8533256 DOI: 10.3390/biology10101054] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2021] [Accepted: 10/11/2021] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
Simple Summary Higher afatinib plasma concentrations have been reported to be associated with the severity of diarrhea; however, the specific target plasma concentration of afatinib required to avoid severe diarrhea onset is unclear. We found that an afatinib AUC0–24 of greater than or equal to 823.5 ng·h/mL and C0 of greater than or equal to 28.5 ng/mL may be used as cut-off values for the incidence of afatinib-induced grade 2 diarrhea. A significant correlation between the AUC0–24 and C0 of afatinib was observed (r2 = 0.761; p < 0.001). Therefore, we could use C0 as a marker of therapeutic drug monitoring. In the current study, the median time to the incidence of grade 2 diarrhea in patients with a C0 of more than 28.5 ng/mL was 16 days. Therefore, we recommend monitoring the C0 of afatinib on day 8 after the beginning of afatinib therapy. Abstract We evaluated the area under the plasma concentration–time curve (AUC) of afatinib required to avoid the onset of grade 2 or higher diarrhea. The C0 and AUC0–24 of afatinib were significant higher in patients with grade 2 diarrhea than in those with grade 0–1 diarrhea. The areas under the receiver operator curves were 0.795 with the highest sensitivity (89%) and specificity (74%) at an AUC0–24 threshold of 823.5 ng·h/mL, and 0.754 with the highest sensitivity (89%) and specificity (74%) at a C0 threshold of 28.5 ng/mL. In Kaplan–Meier analysis based on these cut-off AUC0–24 and C0 values, the median time to the incidence of grade 2 diarrhea was 16 days. The predicted AUC0–24 of afatinib from the single point of C6 showed the highest correlation with the measured AUC0–24 (r2 = 0.840); however, a significant correlation between the AUC0–24 and C0 was also observed (r2 = 0.761). C0 could be used as a marker of therapeutic drug monitoring because afatinib C0 was related to AUC0–24. Therefore, afatinib C0 should be monitored on day 8 after beginning therapy, and the daily dose of afatinib should be adjusted as an index with a cut-off value of 28.5 ng/mL.

Abstract
Afatinib is a target anticancer drug of the second-generation EGFR TKI type,
showing an advantage in treatment effect compared to conventional chemotherapy.
However, patients on EGFR-TKI drugs also usually progress after 9 to 13 months
according to secondary resistance. HAD-B1 is composed of drugs that are
effective against lung cancer. This study is an exploratory study to evaluate
the efficacy and safety between dosage groups by conducting a clinical trial in
subjects requiring afatinib drug treatment in non-small cell lung cancer with
EGFR mutation positive to determine the optimal dosage for HAD-B1
administration. At the final visit compared to before administration, each
change in the disease control rate was measured according to the HAD-B1 doses of
the test group 1 (972 mg), the test group 2 (1944 mg), and the control group.
The efficacy and safety of HAD-B1 were compared and evaluated through
sub-evaluation variables. As a result of the study, there was no statistically
significant difference in the disease control rate at 12 weeks after dosing, but
complete and partial remission were evaluated as 1 patient each in the test
group 1, and none in the other groups. There was no statistically significant
difference between groups in the sub-evaluation variable. In addition, there was
no problem of safety from taking the test drug. However, the initially planned
number of subjects was 66, but the number of enrolled subjects was only 14,
which may limit the results of this study.

Abstract
Small molecule receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (SM-TKIs) are among a group of
targeted cancer therapies, intended to be more specific to cancer cells compared
with treatments, such as chemotherapy, hence reducing adverse events.
Unfortunately, many patients report high levels of diarrhea, the pathogenesis of
which remains under investigation. In this article, we compare the current state
of knowledge of the pathogenesis of chemotherapy-induced diarrhea (CID) in
comparison to SM-TKI–induced diarrhea, and investigate how a similar research
approach in both areas may be beneficial. To this end, we review evidence that
both treatment modalities may interact with the gut microbiome, and as such the
microbiome should be investigated for its ability to reduce the risk of
diarrhea.

Abstract
EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are mainly used to treat non-small cell lung cancer; however, adverse effects such as severe diarrhea represent a major obstacle towards the continuation of EGFR-TKIs therapy. Chloride channels, which control the fluid flow in the intestinal lumen, are proposed as an important target to remediate EGFR-TKIs-induced diarrhea, but the mechanism remains unclear. The aim of this study was to clarify the mechanism underlying EGFR-TKIs-induced diarrhea with a particular focus on the role of intestinal chloride channels. Here, we show that osimertinib-treated rats exhibit diarrhea and an increase in fecal water content without showing any severe histopathological changes. This diarrhea was attenuated by intraperitoneal treatment with the calcium-activated chloride channel (CaCC) inhibitor CaCCinh-A01. These findings were confirmed in afatinib-treated rats with diarrhea. Moreover, treatment with the Japanese traditional herbal medicine, hangeshashinto (HST), decreased fecal water content and improved fecal appearance in rats treated with EGFR-TKIs. HST inhibited the ionomycin-induced CaCC activation in HEK293 cells in patch-clamp current experiments and its active ingredients were identified. In conclusion, secretory diarrhea induced by treatment with EGFR-TKIs might be partially mediated by the activation of CaCC. Therefore, blocking the CaCC could be a potential new treatment for EGFR-TKI-induced diarrhea.

Curr Res Toxicol 2021; 2:217-224. [PMID: 34345864 PMCID: PMC8320603 DOI: 10.1016/j.crtox.2021.05.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2021] [Revised: 05/28/2021] [Accepted: 05/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
In vitro drug-drug interactions (DDIs) can predict drug combination outcomes. Cytochrome (CYP) P450 and hepatocytes are able to confirm DDIs. Fluoxetine inhibited CYP metabolism of gefitinib and erlotinib in supersomes. Hepatocyte metabolism tested here was unaffected by fluoxetine or losartan alone. A regimen containing three or more drugs may cause an unexpected DDI (p ≤ 0.05).
Objective To evaluate drug-drug interactions (DDIs) between gefitinib or erlotinib with fluoxetine, and/or losartan. Methods Human pooled microsomes, supersomes, and cryopreserved human hepatocytes were used to monitor DDIs in vitro. RED (Rapid Equilibrium Dialysis) protein binding was employed to investigate other pharmacokinetics. Results Gefitinib is significantly metabolized by Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2D6 and CYP3A4, with less than 80% of the drug remaining. Erlotinib is significantly metabolized by CYP3A4, CYP2D6, and CYP1A2. Although gefitinib and erlotinib were metabolized by the same CYP isoenzymes, the metabolites formed from degradation of the two drugs were different. Fluoxetine inhibited CYP2D6 and CYP3A4 metabolism of gefitinib with an IC50 of 65.12 ± 1.88 µM and 4.11 ± 2.26 µM, respectively. Fluoxetine also inhibited CYP2D6 and CYP3A4 metabolism of erlotinib with an IC50 of 7.06 ± 1.54 µM and 4.57 ± 1.22 µM, respectively. For hepatocytes, fluoxetine affected the metabolism of gefitinib or erlotinib, while losartan had no effect. Gefitinib and erlotinib inhibited the metabolism of fluoxetine and losartan. Two-drug combinations involving gefitinib or erlotinib with fluoxetine or losartan yielded insignificant (p-value ≥ 0.05) differences in metabolism. However, combinations involving three drugs yielded significant degrees of inhibition (p-value ≤ 0.05). Three drug combinations involving fluoxetine and losartan with gefitinib or erlotinib yielded significant degrees of inhibition of the metabolism of gefitinib, but not for that of erlotinib. Conclusion As could be predicted by previous studies involving the inhibitory effect of fluoxetine on CYP3A4 and CYP2D6, and studies involving CYP metabolism of gefitinib and erlotinib, the tests performed here confirmed that fluoxetine has an inhibitory effect on metabolism of gefitinib or erlotinib by the main CYP isoenzymes involved. This study suggests a variable inhibitory effect of fluoxetine particularly on CYP2D6 activity towards gefitinib or erlotinib; erlotinib metabolism is less affected. Likewise, the combination of fluoxetine and losartan does not significantly affect hepatocyte metabolism of erlotinib, but does for that of gefitinib. The results presented in this study thus indicate a need for DDI assays to involve multiple drugs to properly study multidrug regimens.

Abstract
Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) is a rare drug-related adverse skin reaction caused mainly by antibiotics. Erlotinib is an epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) used to treat lung cancer. A 69-year-old woman with primary lung cancer (adenocarcinoma, cT3N1M1b, stage IVB) developed erythema and multiple skin pustules on her abdomen and both thighs after 7 weeks of erlotinib treatment. She also had fever and general fatigue. Histological examination of a skin biopsy specimen showed intraepidermal pustules with neutrophil and eosinophil infiltration. She was diagnosed with erlotinib-induced AGEP. AGEP resolved by erlotinib discontinuation and systemic corticosteroid treatment. The lung cancer progressed when erlotinib was discontinued, so afatinib, a second-generation EGFR-TKI, was administrated without any skin adverse effects. Afatinib successfully decreased the lung cancer, and maintained the disease stable for 1 year. Although acneiform rash was the most common skin adverse event caused by EGFR, AGEP rarely occurred. The present case also demonstrated that it is possible to switch agents, from erlotinib to afatinib, even though they have the same pharmacological effects. Although AGEP is a rare drug-related skin disorder, physicians should be aware that erlotinib may induce AGEP.

Abstract
Background Afatinib has shown favorable response rates (RRs) and longer progression free survival (PFS) in lung cancer patients harboring EGFR mutations compared with standard platinum-based chemotherapy. However, serious adverse drug reactions (ADRs) limit the clinical application of afatinib. Methods We designed a retrospective study, enrolling all patients with metastatic lung adenocarcinoma who were diagnosed and treated with 30 or 40 mg daily afatinib as their initial treatment in three Kaohsiung Medical University-affiliated hospitals in Taiwan. Results A total of 179 patients were enrolled in the study, of which 102 (57%) and 77 (43%) received 30 mg and 40 mg afatinib daily as their initial treatment, respectively. The patients initially using 30 mg afatinib daily had a similar RR (75% vs. 83%, p = 0.1672), median PFS (14.5 vs. 14.8 months, log-rank p = 0.4649), and median OS (34.0 vs. 25.2 months, log-rank p = 0.5982) compared with those initially using 40 mg afatinib daily. Patients initially receiving 30 mg afatinib daily had fewer ADRs compared with those using 40 mg daily. The overall incidence of moderate and severe ADRs was significantly lower in patients receiving 30 mg afatinib daily compared with those using 40 mg daily (49% vs. 77%, p = 0.002); similar findings was observed in terms of severe ADRs (7% vs. 24%, p < 0.0001). Conclusion Patients receiving 30 mg afatinib daily as their initial treatment had similar RR, PFS, OS, but significantly fewer serious ADRs, as compared with those using 40 mg as their starting dose.

Toxicity profile of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors for patients with lung cancer: A systematic review and network meta-analysis. Crit Rev Oncol Hematol 2021; 160:103305. [PMID: 33757838 DOI: 10.1016/j.critrevonc.2021.103305] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2020] [Revised: 03/16/2021] [Accepted: 03/16/2021] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) are treatments commonly used for lung cancer. The toxicity profile including toxicity incidence, severity, and spectrum (involving various specific adverse events) of each EGFR-TKI are of particular clinical interest and importance. Data from phase II and III randomized controlled trials comparing treatments among EGFR-TKIs (osimertinib, dacomitinib, afatinib, erlotinib, gefitinib, and icotinib) and chemotherapy for lung cancer were synthesized with Bayesian network meta-analysis. The primary outcome was systemic all-grade and grade ≥3 adverse events. The secondary outcome was specific all-grade adverse events including those of the skin, gastrointestinal tract, lung, etc. 40 trials randomizing 13,352 patients were included. Generally greater toxicity for dacomitinib and afatinib, and safety for icotinib were suggested. Furthermore, we found individual EGFR-TKIs had different toxicity spectrums. These findings provide a compelling safety reference for the individualized use of EGFR-TKIs for patients with lung cancer.

Abstract
AIMS Both gefitinib and afatinib are epidermal growth factor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKI) in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It has been reported that gefitinib and afatinib could cause hepatotoxicity during the clinic treatment, therefore it is critical to investigate their hepatotoxicity systematically. In this study, zebrafish (Danio rerio) were used as model animals to compare the hepatotoxicity and their toxic mechanism. MAIN METHODS The zebrafish transgenic line [Tg (fabp10a: dsRed; ela3l:EGFP) was used in this study. After larvae developed at 3 days post fertilization (dpf), they were put into different concentrations of gefitinib and afatinib. At 6 dpf, the viability, liver area, fluorescence intensity, histopathology, apoptosis, transaminase reflecting liver function, the absorption of yolk sac, and the expression of relative genes were observed and analyzed respectively. KEY FINDINGS Both gefitinib and afatinib could induce the larvae hepatotoxicity dose-dependently. Based on the liver morphology, histopathology, apoptosis and function assessments, gefitinib showed higher toxicity, causing more serious liver damage. Both gefitinib and afatinib caused abnormal expressions of genes related to endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) pathway and apoptosis. For example, jnk, perk, bip, chop, ire1, bid, caspase3 and caspase9 were up-regulated, while xbp1s, grp78, bcl-2/bax, and caspase8 were down-regulated. The hepatotoxicity difference of gefitinib and afatinib might be due to the different expression level of related genes.

Abstract
The tyrosine kinase activity of epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFRs) plays critical roles in cell proliferation, regeneration, tumorigenesis, and anticancer resistance. Non-small-cell lung cancer patients who responded to EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) and obtained survival benefits had somatic EGFR mutations. EGFR-TKI-related adverse events (AEs) are usually tolerable and manageable, although serious AEs, including lung injury (specifically, interstitial lung disease (ILD), causing 58% of EGFR-TKI treatment-related deaths), occur infrequently. The etiopathogenesis of EGFR-TKI-induced ILD remains unknown. Risk factors, such as tobacco exposure, pre-existing lung fibrosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and poor performance status, indicate that lung inflammatory circumstances may worsen with EGFR-TKI treatment because of impaired epithelial healing of lung injuries. There is limited evidence from preclinical and clinical studies of the mechanisms underlying EGFR-TKI-induced ILD in the available literature. Herein, we evaluated the relationship between EGFR-TKIs and AEs, especially ILD. Recent reports on mechanisms inducing lung injury or resistance in cytokine-rich circumstances were reviewed. We discussed the relevance of cytotoxic agents or immunotherapeutic agents in combination with EGFR-TKIs as a potential mechanism of EGFR-TKI-related lung injury and reviewed recent developments in diagnostics and therapeutics that facilitate recovery from lung injury or overcoming resistance to anti-EGFR treatment.

Abstract
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), responsible for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, has caused disruption in cancer care and research, changing daily management approach of cancer patients, above all for those affected by lung cancer disease. Unfortunately, its length and severity beyond today is still uncertain. This emerged viral pandemic has produced severe illness to overwhelm healthcare infrastructure, with worse impact on public health system and on providers of essential community services, and needing to ration medical equipment and interventions. Several data from across the world highlighted the susceptibility of patients affected by tumors to high severe infection and mortality from COVID-19. Lung cancer patients emerged as "frail" subgroup, mainly attributable to their immunosuppression, co-existing medical conditions and underlying pulmonary compromise. So, the lung cancer care was confounded by urgent need for intervention for most patients and the competing risk of life-threatening COVID-19 infection, and also influenced by competing needs for personnel, beds and equipment for urgent COVID-19 care. Clearly, no one model of care is possible during all pandemic phases or in all medical environments. In this review we will discuss on available data and their impact on prioritizing the individual management for lung cancer patients, with aim to protect them from COVID-19.

Crosstalk between alveolar macrophages and alveolar epithelial cells/fibroblasts contributes to the pulmonary toxicity of gefitinib. Toxicol Lett 2020; 338:1-9.

Abstract
Gefitinib is an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor indicated for the first-line treatment of patients with metastatic or advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors have specific EGFR mutations. Pulmonary toxicity is one of the fatal adverse effects of gefitinib and the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Here we demonstrated that alveolar macrophages contributed to gefitinib-induced pulmonary toxicity through promoting alveolar epithelial cells to undergo epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) and inducing activation and antiapoptotic effect in fibroblasts. Further, we found that alveolar macrophage-secreted MCP-1 worked as a key factor in the pathologic changes of these two cell types. Gefitinib increased Mcp-1 transcription level via the nuclear import of the transcription factor STAT3. In conclusion, our data uncovered the underlying mechanisms of macrophage-promoted pulmonary toxicity in the presence of gefitinib. MCP-1 antibody or inhibition of STAT3 activation may represent novel therapeutic strategies for preventing gefitinib-induced pulmonary toxicity.

Abstract
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Molecular targeted therapy has greatly advanced the field of treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), which accounts for the majority of lung cancers. Indeed, gefitinib, which was the first molecular targeted therapeutic agent, has actually doubled the survival time of NSCLC patients. Vigorous efforts of clinicians and researchers have revealed that lung cancer develops through the activating mutations of many driver genes including the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), c-ros oncogene 1 (ROS1), v-Raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog B (BRAF), and rearranged during transfection (RET) genes. Although ALK, ROS1, and RET are rare genetic abnormalities, corresponding tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) can exert dramatic therapeutic effects. In addition to anticancer drugs targeting driver genes, bevacizumab specifically binds to human vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and blocks the VEGF signaling pathway. The VEGF signal blockade suppresses angiogenesis in tumor tissues and inhibits tumor growth. In this review, we also explore immunotherapy, which is a promising new NSCLC treatment approach. In general, antitumor immune responses are suppressed in cancer patients, and cancer cells escape from the immune surveillance mechanism. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are antibodies that target the primary escape mechanisms, immune checkpoints. Patients who respond to ICIs are reported to experience longlasting therapeutic effects. A wide range of clinical approaches, including combination therapy involving chemotherapy or radiation plus adjuvant therapy, are being developed.

Abstract
Objective Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) during real-world osimertinib use were investigated in Japan. Methods Patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) T790M-positive non-small cell lung cancer treated with second-line or later oral osimertinib per the Japanese package insert (80 mg once daily) were included. Data were collected between 28 March 2016 and 31 August 2018. Results The median observation period in the safety analysis population (n = 3578) was 343.0 days. ADRs (defined as adverse events whose causality to osimertinib could not be denied by the attending physicians or manufacturer) were reported in 58.1% (2079/3578) of patients. ADRs of interstitial lung disease events were reported in 6.8% (245/3578; Grade ≥ 3, 2.9% [104/3578]) of patients, of whom 29 (11.8%) died (0.8% of patients overall). ADRs of QT interval prolonged, liver disorder and haematotoxicity were reported in 1.3% (45/3578; Grade ≥ 3, 0.1% [5/3578]), 5.9% (212/3578; Grade ≥ 3, 1.0% [35/3578]) and 11.4% (409/3578; Grade ≥ 3, 2.9% [104/3578]) of patients, respectively. In the efficacy analysis population (n = 3563), 119 (3.3%) patients had complete responses, 2373 (66.6%) had partial responses and 598 (16.8%) had stable disease. The objective response rate was 69.9%; disease control rate was 86.7%; and median progression-free survival (PFS) was 12.3 months. At 6 and 12 months, PFS rates were 77.4% (95% confidence interval [CI], 75.9–78.9) and 53.2% (95% CI, 51.3–55.1) and overall survival rates were 88.3% (95% CI, 87.2–89.4) and 75.4% (95% CI, 73.8–77.0), respectively. Conclusions These data support the currently established benefit-risk assessment of osimertinib in this patient population.

Purpose This FAEISS study was designed to confirm the superior efficacy of reactive topical corticosteroid strategies employing serially ranking-DOWN from very strong steroid levels for the treatment of facial acneiform rash induced by epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors (EGFRIs), in comparison with strategies employing serially ranking-UP from weak steroid levels. This article reports the primary results of the non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) part of the trial. Methods Patients with EGFR-mutated advanced NSCLC treated with erlotinib or afatinib were enrolled in the first registration. All patients received preemptive therapy with oral minocycline and heparinoid moisturizer from the initiation of an EGFR inhibitor. Enrolled patients who developed facial acneiform rash within 2 weeks were randomized at second registration to either a ranking-UP (WEAK) group or a ranking-DOWN group. The primary endpoint was incidence of grade ≥ 2 facial acneiform rash over 8 weeks. Results Fifty-one patients were enrolled at the first registration and received EGFRIs (n = 30 for afatinib, n = 21 for erlotinib). However, 35 patients did not develop facial acneiform rash within 2 weeks; one patient discontinued preemptive treatment. Fifteen patients (29.4%) were enrolled in the second registration; nine were assigned to the WEAK group and six to the DOWN group. There was no significant difference in the incidence of grade ≥ 2 facial acneiform rash between the WEAK group (one patient, twice) and the DOWN group (one patient, twice; p = 0.8417). No patients developed severe facial acneiform rash within 10 weeks. Conclusion In NSCLC patients who received EGFRIs, preemptive therapy of oral minocycline and heparinoid moisturizer reduced facial acneiform rash incidence. Trial registration UMIN000024113

Wang Y, Miao L, Hu Y, Zhou Y. The Efficacy and Safety of First-Line Chemotherapy in Patients With Non-small Cell Lung Cancer and Interstitial Lung Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Front Oncol 2020; 10:1636. [PMID: 33014824 PMCID: PMC7506119 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2020.01636] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2020] [Accepted: 07/27/2020] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Lung cancer is a well-known comorbidity of interstitial lung disease (ILD), and the actual efficacy and safety of chemotherapy for patients with non-small cell lung cancer and interstitial lung disease (NSCLC-ILD) have not been determined. We conducted this meta-analysis to assess the efficacy and safety of chemotherapy for patients with NSCLC-ILD. Methods: We searched related studies from the Cochrane Library, PubMed, and Embase. The endpoints were objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), 1-year overall survival rate (1-yOS rate), and first-line chemotherapy-related acute exacerbation of interstitial lung disease rate (AE-ILD rate). Results: We included 21 studies involving 684 patients in our analysis. The pooled ORR was 43% (95% CI: 38.0–49.0%), and the pooled DCR was 80.0% (95% CI: 75.7–83.9%). The modified overall 1-yOS rate was 33.0% (95% CI: 29.0–37.0%). The pooled AE-ILD rate was 8.07% (95% CI: 6.12–10.26%). Subgroup analysis revealed a trend for lower AE-ILD rate (4.98%; 95% CI: 2.44–8.37%) in patients with carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel. Lung function and AE-ILD may be associated with the prognosis of patients with NSCLC-ILD. Conclusions: First-line chemotherapy is effective in patients with NSCLC-ILD, and the AE-ILD rate is acceptable, but the prognosis is limited. Future randomized controlled trials are needed to explore more appropriate treatment regimens to improve the prognosis of patients with NSCLC-ILD.

Abstract
Background This retrospective study evaluated the safety and efficacy of concurrent anti-tuberculosis (TB) and chemotherapy treatment in patients with advanced lung cancer and active TB. Methods We retrospectively analyzed patients who were first diagnosed with advanced lung cancer and received first-line chemotherapy in Guangzhou Chest Hospital from 2015 to 2017. Patients were categorized into two groups (2:1): lung cancer patients without active TB (Group A), and lung cancer patients with active TB (Group B). Primary endpoints included adverse events (AEs), objective response rate (ORR), time to treatment failure, and overall survival (OS). Results A total of 99 patients were eligible (Group A, n=66; Group B, n=33). Grade ≥3 treatment-related AEs, primarily hematologic toxicity, occurred in 39.4% and 51.5% of patients in Groups A and B, respectively. The hypohepatia in both groups was generally at grade 1 or 2, with similar incidences (26% and 27%, respectively). After two cycles of chemotherapy, the ORR was 42.4% and 33.3% in Group A and B, respectively (P=0.383). The median time to treatment failure (TTF) was 7.0 and 5.6 months for Groups A and B, respectively (P=0.175). The median OS was 17.0 and 14.0 months for Groups A and B, respectively (P=0.312). After 3 months of anti-TB treatment, all patients achieved sputum acid-fast bacilli (AFB) smear conversion and absorption on imaging, and the end of follow-up observed no recurrence. Conclusions Concurrent anti-TB and chemotherapy treatment did not increase hematological toxicity or hypohepatia in lung cancer patients with pulmonary TB.
