Front Pharmacol 2023; 14:1170344. [PMID: 37284322 PMCID: PMC10239861 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1170344] [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: 02/20/2023] [Accepted: 05/10/2023] [Indexed: 06/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: As a new drug delivery and embolization system, drug-eluted bronchial artery chemoembolization (DEB-BACE) can not only embolize the tumor blood supply artery but also load chemotherapy drugs and slowly release them into the local environment. Bevacizumab (BEV) combined with chemotherapy drugs has attained significant achievements in the first-line treatment of advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The role of BEV-loaded DEB-BACE combined with immunotherapy and targeted therapy in patients with lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is unclear. This study was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bevacizumab-loaded CalliSpheres® bronchial arterial chemoembolization combined with immunotherapy and targeted therapy in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. Methods: Nine patients with LUAD who received BEV-loaded CalliSpheres® BACE combined with immunotherapy and targeted therapy from 1 Jan 2021 to Dec 2021 were included in this study. The primary endpoint was the disease control rate (DCR) and the objective response rate (ORR). The secondary endpoints were the overall survival rates (OS) at 6 months and 12 months. The tumor response was evaluated according to the mRECIST standard. Safety was assessed by the occurrences of adverse events and the severity of the adverse events. Results: All patients received CalliSpheres® BACE loaded with BEV (200 mg) in combination with immunotherapy and targeted therapy. A total of nine patients received the BACE procedures 20 times, four of them received a third session of BACE, three underwent a second session of DEB-BACE, and two underwent one cycle of DEB-BACE. Partial response and stable disease were found in seven (77.8%), and two (22.2%) patients, respectively, 1 month after the last multimodal treatment. The ORR at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months was 77.8%, 66.7%, 44.4%, and 33.3%, respectively, while the DCR was 100%, 77.8%, 44.4%, and 33.3%, respectively. The OS rates at 6-and 12-month were 77.8% and 66.7%, respectively. There were no serious adverse events. Conclusion: BEV-loaded CalliSpheres® transcatheter bronchial arterial chemoembolization combined with immunotherapy and targeted therapy is a promising and well-tolerated treatment for patients with lung adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
The safety and efficacy of drug-eluting beads transarterial chemoembolization (DEB-TACE) for unresectable renal cell carcinoma (RCC) still unknown. We aimed to assess the feasibility, safety and clinical efficacy of DEB-TACE with doxorubicin-loaded CalliSpheres beads (CB) in patients with unresectable RCC. Between 2016 and 2020, thirty-five patients with unresectable RCC underwent DEB-TACE with doxorubicin-loaded CB. The objective response rate (ORR) was the primary endpoint, and overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were the secondary endpoints. Fifteen-seven times of DEB-TACE were performed in 35 patients using doxorubicin-loaded (median 60 mg) CB. Fifteen patients underwent an additional session of DEB-TACE, with intervals of 1 to 1.5 months. Twenty-one patients underwent transarterial infusion with cisplatin or oxaliplatin before DEB-TACE. The median follow-up time was 9.0 months (Range 1.8–43.6 months). ORR and DCR were 47.1% and 94.1%, 29.0% and 87.1%, 23.1% and 84.6% respectively at 1-, 3-, and 6- months after DEB-TACE. The median PFS was 21.4 months, and the 3-, 6- and 12- month PFS rates were 84.7%, 73.7% and 62.3%, respectively. The median OS was 24.6 months, and the 3-, 6- and 12- month OS rates were 93.9%, 87.6% and 65.2%, respectively. There were no treatment-related deaths or severe adverse events of grade 3 or more. In conclusion, DEB-TACE with doxorubicin-loaded CB is a safe, feasible and effective palliative treatment option for patients with unresectable RCC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND CalliSpheres® beads (CB) have been used recently for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. However, the safety and effect of drug-eluting bead transarterial chemoembolization (DEB-TACE) in patients with stage III-IV lung cancer are still unknown. PURPOSE To evaluate the safety and efficacy of DEB-TACE with pirarubicin-loaded CB for the treatment of stage III-IV lung cancer. MATERIAL AND METHODS From July 2016 to April 2020, 29 patients with stage III-IV primary lung cancer underwent DEB-TACE with pirarubicin-loaded CB. The objective response rate (ORR) was the primary endpoint; the secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). RESULTS Twenty-nine patients received DEB-TACE with pirarubicin-loaded (median 60 mg) CB, with no severe adverse events or treatment-related deaths. After DEB-TACE, hemoptysis disappeared within 1-3 days in all patients, and the symptoms of cough or expectoration were significantly improved in 12 patients. ORR and disease control rate at one, three, and six months after DEB-TACE were 39.3% and 96.4%, 26.1% and 69.6%, and 29.4% and 58.8%, respectively. The median PFS was 6.3 months (range 1.1-30.1 months), and the three-, six-, and 12-month PFS rates were 70.2%, 50.1%, and 27.1%, respectively. The median OS was 10.2 months (range 1.1-44.6 months), and the three-, six, and 12-month OS rates were 87.9%, 68.6%, and 39.8%, respectively. CONCLUSION DEB-TACE with pirarubicin-loaded CB is safe, feasible, and well-tolerated for patients with stage III-IV lung cancer, and symptom control was a potential benefit of treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinical outcomes of drug-eluting beads transarterial chemoembolization (DEB-TACE) with doxorubicin-loaded CalliSpheres® beads for patients with unresectable or recurrent esophageal carcinoma have not been reported. The aim of this study is to study the clinical outcomes of DEB-TACE for patients with unresectable or recurrent esophageal carcinoma. METHODS This retrospective study enrolled 21 patients (15 men; mean age 68.7 ± 9.7; range 46-86 years) with unresectable or recurrent esophageal carcinoma received DEB-TACE between July 2017 and September 2020. Patient characteristic data, imaging findings, complications and DEB-TACE procedure were reviewed. The primary endpoints, disease control rate (DCR) and objective response rate (ORR), were calculated. The secondary endpoints were overall survival rate and progression-free survival (PFS). RESULTS Twenty-two sessions of DEB-TACE were performed in 21 patients. The technical success rate was 100%; without sever adverse events or procedure-related deaths. All patients received transarterial chemotherapy infusion with raltitrexed or oxaliplatin. The median follow-up period was 3.6 months (interquartile range, IQR 1.5-9.4 months). ORR and DCR were 42.9 and 85.7%, 28.6 and 71.4%, 20.0 and 40.0% respectively at 1-, 3-, and 6-months after DEB-TACE. The median PFS was 6.0 months, and the 3-, 6- and 12-month PFS rates were 68.2%, 45.5 and 0.0%, respectively. The median overall survival was 9.4 months, and the 3-, 6- and 12-month overall survival rates were 75.5%, 55.0 and 13.8%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS To our knowledge, this is the first study reports outcomes of DEB-TACE with doxorubicin-loaded CallSpheres bead treatment in the management of patients with unresectable or recurrent esophageal carcinoma. According to our results, this is a safe and feasible treatment modality that may be considered among the options for the treatment of these patients.

Cancer Manag Res 2020; 12:941-956. [PMID: 32104076 PMCID: PMC7020935 DOI: 10.2147/cmar.s187203] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2018] [Accepted: 06/27/2019] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety between transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) with CalliSpheres® microspheres (CSM-TACE) and conventional TACE (cTACE) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Patients and Methods Three hundred and thirty-five HCC patients receiving CSM-TACE or cTACE were consecutively enrolled in this multi-center, retrospective cohort study, and then divided into CSM-TACE group and cTACE group accordingly. Complete response (CR), objective response (ORR) and disease control response (DCR) was assessed according to mRECIST criteria at 1 month (M1), 3 months(M3) and 6 months(M6) after treatment. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were assessed. Liver function indexes and adverse events (AEs) were also evaluated. Results CR at M3 (P=0.020) and ORR at M1 (P<0.001), M3 (P<0.001) and M6 (P=0.017) after treatment were significantly higher in the CSM-TACE compared with cTACE group. DCRs, PFS (25.3 months vs 24.2 months, P=0.503) and OS (27.8 months vs 25.3 months, P=0.203) were similar between the two groups. CSM-TACE was independently correlated with higher ORR at M1 (P=0.002) and longer OS (P=0.023). Abnormal alkaline phosphatase (ALP) (P=0.049) was independently associated with lower ORR at M3, and history of alcohol intake (P=0.019) and largest nodule size ≥7 cm (P=0.015) independently correlated with lower ORR at M6 (P=0.015). Largest nodule size ≥7 cm (P=0.029) and abnormal albumin (ALB) (P=0.046) were independently associated with shorter PFS. Child-Pugh stage B/C (P=0.023), abnormal ALB (P=0.001), ALP (P=0.008) and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) (P=0.005) were independently associated with shorter OS. Most liver function indexes and AEs were similar between the two groups (P>0.05), except that ALP (P=0.005), total bilirubin (P=0.031), pain during procedure (P=0.034) and occurrence of fever post(treatment (P=0.017) were significantly elevated in the CSM-TACE compared with cTACE group. Conclusion CSM-TACE presents with a better treatment response and similar survival profile compared with cTACE in HCC patients.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the efficacy, safety, and prognostic factors of drug-eluting beads transarterial chemoembolization (DEB-TACE) in treating Chinese patients with liver cancer. A total of 367 liver cancer patients from 24 medical centers were consecutively enrolled in this multiple-center, prospective cohort study, including 275 hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cases, 37 intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) cases, and 55 secondary liver cancer cases. All the patients received CalliSpheres® DEB-TACE treatment. Treatment response, overall survival (OS), change of liver function, and adverse events (AEs) were assessed. DEB-TACE treatment achieved 19.9% complete response (CR) and 79.6% objective response rate (ORR), with mean OS of 384 days [95% confidence interval (CI): 375–393 days]. CR and ORR were both higher in HCC patients compared with primary ICC patients and secondary liver cancer patients, while no difference was discovered in OS. Portal vein invasion was an independent risk factor for CR, while portal vein invasion, previous conventional TACE (cTACE) treatment, and abnormal blood creatinine (BCr) were independent risk factors for ORR. In addition, largest nodule size ≥5.0 cm, abnormal albumin (ALB), and abnormal total bilirubin (TBIL) independently correlated with unfavorable OS. Most liver function indexes were recovered to baseline levels at 1–3 months after DEB-TACE. Common AEs were pain, fever, vomiting, and nausea; most of them were at mild grade. CalliSpheres® DEB-TACE is efficient and well tolerated in Chinese liver cancer patients. Portal vein invasion, previous cTACE treatment, largest nodule size, abnormal BCr, ALB, and TBIL correlate with worse prognosis independently.

Abstract
This study evaluated the difference in treatment response and survival profiles between drug-eluting bead transarterial chemoembolization (DEB-TACE) and conventional transarterial chemoembolization (cTACE) treatments in Chinese hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. A total of 120 HCC patients were consecutively enrolled in this prospective cohort study, which showed that DEB-TACE achieved higher complete response (CR) (30.8%) compared with cTACE (7.4%) with no difference in overall response rate (ORR) for patients treated with DEB-TACE and cTACE (80.8% vs. 73.5%). In addition, DEB-TACE was associated with a lower rate of progressive disease (PD) compared with cTACE (1.9% vs. 11.8%). With respect to survival, patients in the DEB-TACE group achieved median progression-free survival (PFS) of 15 months (95% CI 12-18 months), which was longer than the cTACE group [median PFS 11 months (95% CI 10-12 months)]. Median overall survival (OS) was also longer with DEB-TACE [25 months (95% CI 22-28 months)] when compared with cTACE [21 months (95% CI 18-24 months)]. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that DEB-TACE was an independent predictive factor for achieving CR. Univariate Cox's regression analysis revealed that DEB-TACE was a predictive factor for prolonged PFS and OS, while multivariate analysis demonstrated that DEB-TACE was not an independent factor for predicting PFS or OS. In conclusion, we found that DEB-TACE achieved higher treatment response and prolonged survival compared with cTACE in Chinese HCC patients.

Abstract
Background Drug‐eluting beads bronchial arterial chemoembolization (DEB‐BACE) can embolize the tumor‐feeding artery and also be loaded with antitumor drugs, which can be released slowly into the local tumor environment. The effect of DEB‐BACE in patients with lung cancer remains unclear. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of DEB‐BACE with gemcitabine‐loaded CalliSpheres beads in patients with non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods From May 2017 to December 2018, six patients with NSCLC who were ineligible or refused to receive standard treatment underwent DEB‐BACE with gemcitabine‐loaded CalliSpheres beads. The primary endpoint was the objective response rate (ORR). The secondary endpoints were progression‐free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and quality of life. Safety was evaluated by the occurrences of adverse events and serious adverse events. Results All patients were treated with DEB‐BACE loaded with gemcitabine (800 mg) using CalliSpheres beads. Five patients also received transarterial infusion with nedaplatin (80–100 mg). Of the six patients, five underwent a second session of DEB‐BACE, with intervals of one month between the first and second session. The median follow‐up time was 16.5 months (7.0–23.0 months). ORR and disease control rate were 50.0% and 100.0%, 50.0% and 83.3%, 50.0% and 66.7% respectively at 2, 4, and 6 months after DEB‐BACE. One patient maintained a partial response and the other five had progressive disease, of whom two patients died and the other three remained alive receiving targeted therapy, radiotherapy, transarterial infusion or thermal ablation. The median PFS was 8.0 months (4–23 months), and the 6‐ and 12 month PFS rates were 66.7% and 16.7%, respectively. The median OS was 16.5 months (7–23 months), and the six and 12 month OS rates were 100.0% and 66.7%, respectively. Hemoptysis, cough and dyspnea disappeared after DEB‐BACE in four patients. Global quality of life, physical and emotional functioning were all significantly improved at two months (P < 0.05). There were no serious adverse events. Conclusions DEB‐BACE with gemcitabine‐loaded CalliSpheres beads is a feasible and well‐tolerated treatment for patients with NSCLC who are ineligible or refuse to receive standard treatment.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to compare the treatment response, survival, liver function,
and adverse event incidence of drug-eluting bead transcatheter arterial chemoembolization
using CalliSpheres microspheres with conventional transcatheter arterial chemoembolization
in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. Seventy-three patients with hepatocellular
carcinoma who received drug-eluting bead transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (using
CalliSpheres microspheres) or conventional transcatheter arterial chemoembolization
treatment were consecutively enrolled. Treatment response was assessed by modified
Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors at month 1/month 3/month 6; posttreatment,
liver function indexes, and adverse events were recorded. Progression-free survival and
overall survival were also calculated. Objective response rate of patients at months 1, 3,
and 6, disease control rate of patients and objective response rate of nodules at month 3
were increased in drug-eluting bead transcatheter arterial chemoembolization group
compared with conventional transcatheter arterial chemoembolization group. In addition,
drug-eluting bead transcatheter arterial chemoembolization using CalliSpheres microspheres
was an independent factor for predicting better objective response rate at month 1.
Patients in drug-eluting bead transcatheter arterial chemoembolization group achieved
longer progression-free survival and similar overall survival compared to those in
conventional transcatheter arterial chemoembolization group; Cox proportional hazards
regression model analyses revealed that drug-eluting bead transcatheter arterial
chemoembolization using CalliSpheres microspheres was associated with better
progression-free survival while it did not affect overall survival. Meanwhile, most of the
occurrences of abnormal liver function indexes were similar between 2 groups, whereas
drug-eluting bead transcatheter arterial chemoembolization group had a higher percentage
of patients with total bile acid ≥2 upper limit of normal compared to conventional
transcatheter arterial chemoembolization group at month 1. Moreover, the adverse event
incidences between 2 groups were similar. In conclusion, drug-eluting bead transcatheter
arterial chemoembolization using CalliSpheres microspheres achieves better treatment
response and progression-free survival while equal safety compared to conventional
transcatheter arterial chemoembolization in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract
This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of drug-eluting bead transarterial chemoembolization (DEB-TACE) vs conventional TACE (cTACE) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients with multiple cTACE treatments history.Eighty-one HCC patients with multiple cTACE treatments history who underwent DEB-TACE (N = 42) and cTACE treatment (N = 39) were included in this retrospective cohort study and allocated to DEB-TACE and cTACE groups accordingly. Multiple cTACE treatments history was defined as history of three or more cycles cTACE treatments. Then treatment responses were assessed according to the criteria of modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (mRECIST), and progression free survival (PFS), as well as overall survival (OS), was calculated. In addition, adverse events and liver function related indexes were recorded.Complete response (P = .167) was of no difference while objective response rate (ORR) (P = .003) was increased in DEB-TACE group compared with cTACE group. Patients in DEB-TACE group presented with more favorable PFS (P = .028) and OS (P = .037) compared with cTACE group. Further analysis revealed that DEB-TACE (vs cTACE) was an independent predictive factor for better ORR (P = .001), PFS (P = .006) and OS (P = .001). The albumin (ALB) level at first month after treatment was elevated (P = .015) while the other liver function indexes levels did not vary (all P > .05) in DEB-TACE group compared with cTACE group. The incidences of pain (P = .327), fever (P = .171) and nausea/vomiting (P = .400) during hospitalization were similar between the 2 groups.DEB-TACE is more efficient and equally tolerant compared with cTACE in HCC patients with multiple cTACE treatments history.

Abstract
The possible anticancer effect of carnosine versus doxorubicin was investigated against hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) induced by trichloroacetic acid (TCA) (500mg/kg/day, p.o., for 5days) in rats. Following induction of HCC, rats treated with either carnosine (10mg/kg/day, i.p.), or doxorubicin (2.5mg/kg, i.p., once weekly), for 2 weeks. Carnosine significantly decreased serum alanine aminotransferase, and hepatic lipid peroxidation, nitric oxide, tumor necrosis factor-α, and nuclear factor-κB p65 unit, and significantly increased liver total antioxidant status in TCA-challenged rats. The effects of doxorubicin on oxidative, nitrative, and inflammatory biomarkers were less significant than carnosine. However, both carnosine and doxorubicin significantly induced liver tissue apoptotic biomarkers, Bax, cytosolic cytochrome C, and caspase-3, in a comparable manner. Additionally, carnosine and doxorubicin reduced the histopathological dysplastic changes, and alpha-fetoprotein expression in liver of rats with HCC. It was concluded that carnosine significantly protected against TCA-induced liver carcinogenesis in rats, through its antioxidant, antinitrative, and anti-inflammatory effects, and induction of apoptosis.
