[PMID: 39349433 DOI: 10.1038/s41419-024-07082-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2024] [Revised: 09/07/2024] [Accepted: 09/16/2024] [Indexed: 10/02/2024]
Abstract
Repositioning approved antitumor drugs for different cancers is a cost-effective approach. Gilteritinib was FDA-approved for the treatment of FLT3-mutated acute myeloid leukemia in 2018. However, the therapeutic effects and mechanism of Gilteritinib on other malignancies remain to be defined. In this study, we identified that gilteritinib has an inhibitory effect on lung cancer cells (LCCs) without FLT3 mutation in vitro and in vivo. Unexpectedly, we found that gilteritinib induces cholesterol accumulation in LCCs via upregulating cholesterol biosynthetic genes and inhibiting cholesterol efflux. This gilteritinib-induced cholesterol accumulation not only attenuates the antitumor effect of gilteritinib but also induces gilteritinib-resistance in LCCs. However, when cholesterol synthesis was prevented by squalene epoxidase (SQLE) inhibitor NB-598, both LCCs and gilteritinib-resistant LCCs became sensitive to gilteritinib. More importantly, the natural cholesterol inhibitor 25-hydroxycholesterol (25HC) can suppress cholesterol biosynthesis and increase cholesterol efflux in LCCs. Consequently, 25HC treatment significantly increases the cytotoxicity of gilteritinib on LCCs, which can be rescued by the addition of exogenous cholesterol. In a xenograft model, the combination of gilteritinib and 25HC showed significantly better efficacy than either monotherapy in suppressing lung cancer growth, without obvious general toxicity. Thus, our findings identify an increase in cholesterol induced by gilteritinib as a mechanism for LCC survival, and highlight the potential of combining gilteritinib with cholesterol-lowering drugs to treat lung cancer.

Biochim Biophys Acta Rev Cancer 2024; 1879:189187. [PMID: 39317271 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbcan.2024.189187] [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: 03/18/2024] [Revised: 09/17/2024] [Accepted: 09/19/2024] [Indexed: 09/26/2024]
Abstract
Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) is a versatile molecule that plays a critical role in various physiological and pathological processes, particularly in tumor development where its impact is bidirectional. On the one hand, it augments the immune response by promoting immune cell migration, infiltration, and the formation of immunological synapses, thus facilitating potent antitumor effects. Simultaneously, it contributes to tumor immune evasion and influences metastasis by mediating transendothelial migration (TEM), epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and epigenetic modification of tumor cells. Despite its significant potential, the full clinical utility of ICAM-1 has yet to be fully realized. In this review, we thoroughly examine recent advancements in understanding the role of ICAM-1 in tumor development, its relevance in predicting therapeutic efficacy and prognosis, as well as the progress in clinical translational research on anti-ICAM-1-based therapies, encompassing including monoclonal antibodies, immunotherapy, antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), and conventional treatments. By shedding light on these innovative strategies, we aim to underscore ICAM-1's significance as a valuable and multifaceted target for cancer treatment, igniting enthusiasm for further research and facilitating translation into clinical applications.

[PMID: 38911453 PMCID: PMC11193349 DOI: 10.1177/11795549241260534] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2023] [Accepted: 05/17/2024] [Indexed: 06/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), combining the cytotoxicity of the drug payload with the specificity of monoclonal antibodies, are one of the rapidly evolving classes of anti-cancer agents. These agents have been successfully incorporated into the treatment paradigm of many malignancies, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The NSCLC is the most prevalent subtype of lung cancer, having a considerable burden on the cancer-related mortality and morbidity rates globally. Several ADC molecules are currently approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to be used in patients with NSCLC. However, the successful management of NSCLC patients using these agents was met with several challenges, including the development of resistance and toxicities. These shortcomings resulted in the exploration of novel therapeutic targets that can be targeted by the ADCs. This review aims to explore the recently identified ADC targets along with their oncologic mechanisms. The ADC molecules targeting these biomarkers are further discussed along with the evidence from clinical trials.

Tunable Multivalent Aptamer-Based DNA Nanostructures To Regulate Multiheteroreceptor-Mediated Tumor Recognition. J Am Chem Soc 2024; 146:2514-2523.

Abstract
Precise mapping and regulation of cell surface receptors hold immense significance in disease treatment, such as cancer, infection, and neurodisorders, but also face enormous challenges. In this study, we designed a series of adjustable multivalent aptamer-based DNA nanostructures to precisely control their interaction with receptors in tumor cells. By profiling surface receptors on 12 cell lines using 10 different aptamers, we generated a heatmap that accurately distinguished between various tumor types based on multiple markers. We then incorporated these aptamers onto DNA origami structures to regulate receptor recognition, with patch-like structures demonstrating a tendency to be trapped on the cell surface and with tube-like structures showing a preference for internalization. Through precise control of aptamer species, valence, and geometric patterns, we found that multiheteroreceptor-mediated recognition not only favored the specific binding of nanostructures to tumor cells but also greatly enhanced intracellular uptake by promoting clathrin-dependent endocytosis. Specifically, we achieved over 5-fold uptake in different tumor cells versus normal cells using tube-like structures modified with different diheteroaptamer pairs, facilitating targeted drug delivery. Moreover, patch-like structures with triheteroaptamers guided specific interactions between macrophages and tumor cells, leading to effective immune clearance. This programmable multivalent system allows for the precise regulation of cell recognition using multiple parameters, demonstrating great potential for personalized tumor treatment.

Abstract
Dysregulation of the epigenetic processes, such as DNA methylation, histone modifications, and modulation of chromatin states, drives aberrant transcription that promotes initiation and progression of small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Accumulating evidence has proven crucial roles of epigenetic machinery in modulating immune cell functions and antitumor immune response. Epigenetics-targeting drugs such as DNA methyltransferase inhibitors, histone deacetylase inhibitors, and histone methyltransferase inhibitors involved in preclinical and clinical trials may trigger antitumor immunity. Herein, we summarize the impact of epigenetic processes on tumor immunogenicity and antitumor immune cell functions in SCLC. Furthermore, we review current clinical trials of epigenetic therapy against SCLC and the mechanisms of epigenetic inhibitors to boost antitumor immunity. Eventually, we discuss the opportunities of developing therapeutic regimens combining epigenetic agents with immunotherapy for SCLC.

Abstract
Cancer therapies targeting human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) have been attracting increasing attention worldwide, especially in lung adenocarcinoma. Disitamab vedotin is an antibody-drug conjugate designed for targeting HER2 that has been approved for urothelial carcinoma and gastric cancer. However, there is still a lack of clinical evidence for applying Disitamab vedotin in lung adenocarcinoma. Herein, we reported a case of a 52-year-old man with advanced lung adenocarcinoma carrying HER2 amplification as well as HER2 immunohistochemistry (IHC) 2 + who underwent treatment with Disitamab vedotin after disease progression. The patient was treated with chemotherapy, anti-angiogenesis therapy, and immunotherapy as first-line therapy, achieving a remarkable progression-free survival of 16 months. After the disease continued to continuous progress, the patient was administrated with Disitamab vedotin, which resulted in improvement of both the lung lesions and the brain lesions. Our findings provide a valuable reference for the utilization of Disitamab Vedotin in HER2 IHC2+ lung adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
Background: Antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) is a promising therapy for solid cancer that has raised global concern. Although several papers have reviewed the current state of ADCs in different solid cancers, a quantitative analysis of the publications in this field is scarce. Methods: Publications related to ADC in the field of solid cancer were obtained from the Web of Science Core Collection. Data analyses were performed with VOSviewer 1.6.9, HistCite 2.1, CiteSpace V and R package Bibliometrix. Results: A total of 3,482 records were obtained in the holistic field and 1,197 in the clinical field. Steady growth in the number of publications was observed. The United States was the leading contributor in this field. Krop IE was the most influential author. The most productive institution was Genentech Inc., while Mem Sloan Kettering Canc Ctr was the most cited one. The most impactful journal was the Journal of Clinical Oncology. A total of 37 burst references and five burst references were identified between 2017–2022 in the holistic and clinical fields, respectively. Keywords analysis indicated that ADCs research mainly involved breast cancer, triple-negative breast cancer, ovarian cancer, small cell lung cancer, prostate cancer, gastric cancer, and urothelial carcinoma. ADC agents including trastuzumab emtansine, trastuzumab deruxtecan, sacituzumab govitecan, enfortumab vedotin, and rovalpituzumab tesirine were highly studied. Targets including HER2, trophoblast cell-surface antigen, mesothelin, delta-like ligand 3, and nectin-4 were the major concerns. Conclusion: This study analyzed publications concerning ADCs in the field of solid cancer with bibliometric analysis. Further clinical trials of ADCs and designs of the next generation of ADCs are the current focuses of the field. Acquired resistance of ADCs and biomarkers for ADC therapy efficacy monitoring are future concerns.

Abstract
Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are targeted biological agents composed of a cytotoxic drug linked to a monoclonal antibody through a linker. The monoclonal antibody targets tumor cells and transports small-molecule cytotoxic drugs for specific delivery and minimal off-target side effects. It is necessary for clinicians to understand the molecular characteristics and mechanisms of ADCs. Patients' survival mainly depends on the appropriate dose and course of treatment and also on proper management of adverse reactions. This consensus provides a systematic review of commercially available ADCs and further discusses the clinical application and management of ADCs.

Abstract
The increasing cancer morbidity and mortality requires the development of high-efficiency and low-toxicity anticancer approaches. In recent years, photodynamic therapy (PDT) has attracted much attention in cancer therapy due to its non-invasive features and low side effects. Photosensitizer (PS) is one of the key factors of PDT, and its successful delivery largely determines the outcome of PDT. Although a few PS molecules have been approved for clinical use, PDT is still limited by the low stability and poor tumor targeting capacity of PSs. Various nanomaterial systems have shown great potentials in improving PDT, such as metal nanoparticles, graphene-based nanomaterials, liposomes, ROS-sensitive nanocarriers and supramolecular nanomaterials. The small molecular PSs can be loaded in functional nanomaterials to enhance the PS stability and tumor targeted delivery, and some functionalized nanomaterials themselves can be directly used as PSs. Herein, we aim to provide a comprehensive understanding of PDT, and summarize the recent progress of nanomaterials-based PSs and delivery systems in anticancer PDT. In addition, the concerns of nanomaterials-based PDT including low tumor targeting capacity, limited light penetration, hypoxia and nonspecific protein corona formation are discussed. The possible solutions to these concerns are also discussed.

Antibody-drug conjugates offer the possibility of directing powerful cytotoxic agents to a malignant tumor while sparing normal tissue. The challenge is to select an antibody target expressed exclusively or at highly elevated levels on the surface of tumor cells and either not all or at low levels on normal cells. The current review explores 78 targets that have been explored as antibody-drug conjugate targets. Some of these targets have been abandoned, 9 or more are the targets of FDA-approved drugs, and most remain active clinical interest. Antibody-drug conjugates require potent cytotoxic drug payloads, several of these small molecules are discussed, as are the linkers between the protein component and small molecule components of the conjugates. Finally, conclusions regarding the elements for the successful antibody-drug conjugate are discussed.

Abstract
Arrhythmias associated with antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are rare but potentially life-threatening adverse events (AEs). No study has systemically compared arrhythmias associations for various marketed ADCs. This needs to be clarified to guide antitumor therapies. We extracted data of patients treated with ADCs registered between 2004 q1 and 2020 q3 from the US Food and Drug Administration adverse event reporting system (FAERS). The medical dictionary for regulatory activities was used to identify arrhythmias cases. Disproportionality analysis was performed by calculating the reporting odds ratios (ROR) with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). Clinical characteristics of patients with ADCs-associated arrhythmias and the time to onset of arrhythmias following different ADCs were collected. A total of 140 reports were considered after inclusion criteria were used. Exposure to gemtuzumab ozogamicin (2.23, 1.67-2.97; 48 cases) and brentuximab vedotin (1.27, 1.00-1.61; 67 cases) were associated with a positive signal of arrhythmia. The highest number of arrhythmia reports was for brentuximab vedotin (n = 67). Also 88.00% of arrhythmia occurred within 60 days for all these ADCs. Arrhythmia was commonly reported in patients with hematologic tumors and breast cancer. In the time to onset of adverse events after administration, brentuximab vedotin was significantly earlier than gemtuzumab ozogamicin (38.21 vs. 40.50 days; P = 0.0093), and gemtuzumab ozogamicin was significantly earlier than trastuzumab emtansine (40.50 vs. 147.50 days; P = 0.0035). We reviewed arrhythmia adverse drug reactions associated with ADCs from the FAERS database. This study is practical for clinicians to enhance the management of arrhythmia associated with ADCs and improve ADCs treatment safety.

Abstract
Lung cancer is a complex milieu of genomically altered cancer cells, a diverse collection of differentiated cells and nonneoplastic stroma. Lung cancer organoids is a three-dimensional structure grown from patient cancer tissue that could mimic in vivo complex behavior and cellular architecture of the cancer. Furthermore, the genomic alterations of the primary lung tumor is captured ex vivo. Lung cancer organoids have become an important preclinical model for oncology studies in recent years. It could be used to model the development of lung cancer, investigate the process of tumorigenesis, and also study the signaling pathways. The organoids could also be a platform to perform drug screening and biomarker validation of lung cancer, providing a promising prediction of patient-specific drug response. In this review, we described how lung cancer organoids have opened new avenues for translating basic cancer research into clinical therapy and discussed the latest and future developments in organoid technology, which could be further applied in lung cancer organoids research.

Abstract
In the last decade, antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), normally formed by a humanized antibody and a small drug via a chemical cleavable or non-cleavable linker, have emerged as a potential treatment strategy in cancer disease. They allow to get a selective delivery of the chemotherapeutic agents at the tumor level, and, consequently, to improve the antitumor efficacy and, especially to decrease chemotherapy-related toxicity. Currently, nine antibody-drug conjugate-based formulations have been already approved and more than 80 are under clinical trials for the treatment of several tumors, especially breast cancer, lymphomas, and multiple myeloma. To date, no ADCs have been approved for the treatment of gynecological formulations, but many formulations have been developed and have reached the clinical stage, especially for the treatment of ovarian cancer, an aggressive disease with a low five-year survival rate. This manuscript analyzes the ADCs formulations that are under clinical research in the treatment of gynecological carcinomas, specifically ovarian, endometrial, and cervical tumors.

Abstract
Objective: In this study, we wanted to investigate the plasma exosome-derived B-cell translocation gene 1 (BTG-1) level as a predictive marker for the prognosis in patients with Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Patients and Methods: The expression of BTG-1 protein and BTG-1 mRNA in NSCLC tissues and adjacent tissues of 98 enrolled patients were detected by immunohistochemistry (IHC), and RT-PCR. Exosome-rich fractions were isolated from the plasma of 262 NSCLC patients. ELISA was used to detect plasma exosome-derived BTG-1 levels to evaluate the predictive value for the prognosis in patients with NSCLC. Results: IHC staining showed that the positive expression rate of BTG-1 protein in NSCLC tissues was 58.16%, whereas that in adjacent tissues was 91.84%. RT-PCR showed that BTG-1 mRNA expression was significantly lower in NSCLC tissues than in adjacent tissues (52.04% vs 87.76%, P < 0.05). Moreover, low plasma exosome-derived BTG-1 levels were related to tumor diameter, stage, metastasis, the degree of tumor differentiation, and abnormal carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that both the disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were shorter in patients with low plasma exosome-derived BTG-1 level compared with patients with high plasma exosome-derived BTG-1 level. The AUROC of plasma exosome-derived BTG-1 for 3-year DFS and 3-year OS were 0.94(95% CI; 0.91-0.98) and 0.94(95% CI: 0.90-0.98), respectively. For 3-year DFS, plasma exosome-derived BTG-1 had a sensitivity 91.0% and a specificity 82.3% for 3-year DFS, and a sensitivity 81.7% and a specificity 93.0% for 3-year OS, respectively. Conclusions: Plasma exosome-derived BTG-1 may be a potential biomarker for the prognosis in patients with NSCLC.

Abstract
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death worldwide. In the past decade EGFR, ALK and ROS1 TKIs lead to an unprecedented survival improvement of oncogene-addicted NSCLC patients, with better toxicity profile compared to chemotherapy. In recent years the implementation of high-throughput sequencing platforms led to the identification of uncommon molecular alterations in oncogenic drivers, such as BRAF, MET, RET, HER2 and NTRK. Moreover, newly developed drugs have been found to be active against hard to target drivers, such as KRAS. Specific TKIs targeting these genomic alterations are currently in clinical development and showed impressive activity and survival improvement, leading to FDA-accelerated approval for some of them. However, virtually all patients develop resistance to TKIs by on-target or off-target mechanisms. Here we review the clinicopathological features, the emerging targeted therapies and mechanisms of resistance and strategies to overcome them of KRAS, BRAF, MET, RET, HER2 and NTRK-addicted advanced NSCLCs.

Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have always provided outstanding therapeutic arsenal in the
treatment of cancer, be it hematological malignancies or solid tumors. Monoclonal antibodies mediated
targeting of cancer genes in general and tumor-suppressor genes, in particular, have appreciably allowed
the possibilities of trafficking these antibodies to specific tumor mechanisms and aim for the pin-point
maneuvered tumor treatment strategies. The conventional cancer treatment options are associated with
enormous limitations like drug resistance, acute and pan-toxic side effects and collateral damage to other
unrelated cells and organs. Therefore, monoclonal antibody-mediated treatments have some special advantages
of specific targeting of cancer-related genes and minimizing the off-target side effects. A large
number of monoclonal antibody-mediated treatment regimen viz. use of immunoconjugates, clinically
targeting TGFβ with pan-TGFβ monoclonal antibodies, p53 by its monoclonal antibodies and EGFRtargeted
monoclonal antibodies, etc. have been observed in the recent past. In this review, the authors
have discussed some of the significant advances in the context of targeting tumor suppressor genes with
monoclonal antibodies. Approximately 250 articles were scanned from research databases like PubMed
central, Europe PubMed Central and google scholar up to the date of inception, and relevant reports on
monoclonal antibody-mediated targeting of cancer genes were selected. mAb mediated targeting of tumor
suppressor genes is a recent grey paradigm, which has not been explored up to its maximum potential.
Therefore, this review will be of appreciable significance that it will boost further in-depth understanding
of various aspects of mAb arbitrated cancer targeting and will warrant and promote further rigorous
research initiatives in this regard. The authors expect that this review will acquaint the readers
with the current status regarding the recent progress in the domain of mAbs and their employability and
targetability towards tumor suppressor genes in anti-cancer therapeutics.
