[PMID: 38862853 DOI: 10.1208/s12248-024-00939-1] [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: 04/06/2024] [Accepted: 05/29/2024] [Indexed: 06/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have demonstrated significant efficacy against various types of cancers through molecular targeting mechanisms. Over the past 22 years, more than 100 TKIs have been approved for the treatment of various types of cancer indicating the significant progress achieved in this research area. Despite having significant efficacy and ability to target multiple pathways, TKIs administration is associated with challenges. There are reported inconsistencies between observed food effect and labeling administration, challenges of concomitant administration with acid-reducing agents (ARA), pill burden and dosing frequency. In this context, the objective of present review is to visit administration challenges of TKIs and effective ways to tackle them. We have gathered data of 94 TKIs approved in between 2000 and 2022 with respect to food effect, ARA impact, administration schemes (food and PPI restrictions), number of pills per day and administration frequency. Further, trend analysis has been performed to identify inconsistencies in the labeling with respect to observed food effect, molecules exhibiting ARA impact, in order to identify solutions to remove these restrictions through novel formulation approaches. Additionally, opportunities to reduce number of pills per day and dosing frequency for better patient compliance were suggested using innovative formulation interventions. Finally, utility of physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling (PBPK) for rationale formulation development was discussed with literature reported examples. Overall, this review can act as a ready-to-use-guide for the formulation, biopharmaceutics scientists and medical oncologists to identify opportunities for innovation for TKIs.

[PMID: 38710894 DOI: 10.1208/s12249-024-02806-w] [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: 02/09/2024] [Accepted: 04/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/08/2024] Open
Abstract
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the highly fatal types of cancer with high mortality/incidence. Considering the crucial role of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in PDAC progression, its inhibition can be a viable strategy for the treatment. Pazopanib, a second-generation VEGF inhibitor, is approved for the treatment of various oncological conditions. However, due to associated limitations like low oral bioavailability (14-39%), high inter/intra-subject variability, stability issues, etc., high doses (800 mg) are required, which further lead to non-specific toxicities and also contribute toward cancer resistance. Thus, to overcome these challenges, pazopanib-loaded PEGylated nanoliposomes were developed and evaluated against pancreatic cancer cell lines. The nanoliposomes were prepared by thin-film hydration method, followed by characterization and stability studies. This QbD-enabled process design successfully led to the development of a suitable pazopanib liposomal formulation with desirable properties. The % entrapment of PZP-loaded non-PEGylated and PEGylated nanoliposomes was found to be 75.2% and 84.9%, respectively, whereas their particle size was found to be 129.7 nm and 182.0 nm, respectively. The developed liposomal formulations exhibited a prolonged release and showed desirable physicochemical properties. Furthermore, these liposomal formulations were also assessed for in vitro cell lines, such as cell cytotoxicity assay and cell uptake. These studies confirm the effectiveness of developed liposomal formulations against pancreatic cancer cell lines. The outcomes of this work provide encouraging results and a way forward to thoroughly investigate its potential for PDAC treatment.

Abstract
Targeted therapy and precision oncology aim to improve efficacy and minimize side effects by targeting specific molecules involved in cancer growth and spread. With the advancements in genomics, proteomics, and transcriptomics with the accessible modalities such as next-generation sequencing, circulating tumor cells, and tumor Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA), more number of patients are being offered the targeted therapy in form of monoclonal antibodies and various intracellular targets, specific for their tumor. The harnessing of host immunity against the cancer cells by utilizing immune-oncology agents and chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy has further revolutionized the management of various cancers. These agents, however, have the challenge of managing the adverse effects that are peculiar to the class of drugs and very different from the conventional chemotherapy. This review article discusses the molecular basis, diagnostics, and use of targeted therapy in oncology.

Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14122651. [PMID: 36559146 PMCID: PMC9787286 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics14122651] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2022] [Revised: 11/25/2022] [Accepted: 11/27/2022] [Indexed: 12/05/2022] Open
Abstract
Selumetinib is administered orally in capsule form and is indicated for the treatment of neurofibromatosis. To facilitate dosage adjustments, liquid preparations, such as solutions or suspensions, are to be developed. This led, first, to determine the stability profile of soluble or dispersed selumetinib and, secondly, to look for ways to stabilize the active substance. The degradation kinetics of selumetinib as a function of stress conditions were determined and compared. The degradation products were detected and identified by LC-HRMSn. In solution, selumetinib is sensitive to oxidation and degrades by photooxidation. In both cases, the side chain represented by the oxoamide group is concerned, leading to the formation of an amide derivative for the first case and an ester derivative for the second. The identification of such degradation mechanisms allowed us to study, in a targeted way, processes aiming at stabilizing the active molecule.
