Zhang Y, Jia Q, Li F, Luo X, Wang Z, Wang X, Wang Y, Zhang Y, Li M, Bian L. Identification of molecular subtypes and a prognostic signature based on m6A/m5C/m1A-related genes in lung adenocarcinoma. Sci Rep 2024; 14:7543. [PMID: 38555384 PMCID: PMC10981664 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-57910-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2023] [Accepted: 03/22/2024] [Indexed: 04/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Lung cancer, specifically the histological subtype lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), has the highest global occurrence and fatality rate. Extensive research has indicated that RNA alterations encompassing m6A, m5C, and m1A contribute actively to tumorigenesis, drug resistance, and immunotherapy responses in LUAD. Nevertheless, the absence of a dependable predictive model based on m6A/m5C/m1A-associated genes hinders accurately predicting the prognosis of patients diagnosed with LUAD. In this study, we collected patient data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and identified genes related to m6A/m5C/m1A modifications using the GeneCards database. The "ConsensusClusterPlus" R package was used to produce molecular subtypes by utilizing genes relevant to m6A/m5C/m1A identified through differential expression and univariate Cox analyses. An independent prognostic factor was identified by constructing a prognostic signature comprising six genes (SNHG12, PABPC1, IGF2BP1, FOXM1, CBFA2T3, and CASC8). Poor overall survival and elevated expression of human leukocyte antigens and immune checkpoints were correlated with higher risk scores. We examined the associations between the sets of genes regulated by m6A/m5C/m1A and the risk model, as well as the immune cell infiltration, using algorithms such as ESTIMATE, CIBERSORT, TIMER, ssGSEA, and exclusion (TIDE). Moreover, we compared tumor stemness indices (TSIs) by considering the molecular subtypes related to m6A/m5C/m1A and risk signatures. Analyses were performed based on the risk signature, including stratification, somatic mutation analysis, nomogram construction, chemotherapeutic response prediction, and small-molecule drug prediction. In summary, we developed a prognostic signature consisting of six genes that have the potential for prognostication in patients with LUAD and the design of personalized treatments that could provide new versions of personalized management for these patients.

Exploring the Spectrum of VEGF Inhibitors' Toxicities from Systemic to Intra-Vitreal Usage in Medical Practice. Cancers (Basel) 2024; 16:350. [PMID: 38254839 PMCID: PMC10813960 DOI: 10.3390/cancers16020350] [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: 12/24/2023] [Revised: 01/11/2024] [Accepted: 01/11/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
The use of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor inhibitors (VEGFi) has become prevalent in the field of medicine, given the high incidence of various pathological conditions necessitating VEGF inhibition within the general population. These conditions encompass a range of advanced neoplasms, such as colorectal cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, renal cancer, ovarian cancer, and others, along with ocular diseases. The utilization of VEGFi is not without potential risks and adverse effects, requiring healthcare providers to be well-prepared for identification and management. VEGFi can be broadly categorized into two groups: antibodies or chimeric proteins that specifically target VEGF (bevacizumab, ramucirumab, aflibercept, ranibizumab, and brolucizumab) and non-selective and selective small molecules (sunitinib, sorafenib, cabozantinib, lenvatinib, regorafenib, etc.) designed to impede intracellular signaling of the VEGF receptor (RTKi, receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors). The presentation and mechanisms of adverse effects resulting from VEGFi depend primarily on this distinction and the route of drug administration (systemic or intra-vitreal). This review provides a thorough examination of the causes, recognition, management, and preventive strategies for VEGFi toxicities with the goal of offering support to oncologists in both clinical practice and the design of clinical trials.

Fang H, Peng Z, Tan B, Peng N, Li B, He D, Xu M, Yang Z. The involvement of PDIA2 gene in the progression of renal cell carcinoma is potentially through regulation of JNK signaling pathway. Clin Transl Oncol 2023; 25:2938-2949.

Abstract
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with poor prognosis and high incidence rate is a common malignant disease. Current therapies could bring little benefit for the patients with advanced-stage RCC. PDIA2 is an isomerase responsible for protein folding and its role in cancer including RCC is under investigation. In this study, we found that PDIA2 was expressed much higher in RCC tissues than the control but the methylation level of PDIA2 promoter was lower based on the TCGA data. Patients with higher PDIA2 expression exerted worse survival. In clinical specimen, PDIA2 expression was correlated to patients' clinical factors such as TNM stage (I/II vs III/IV, p = 0.025) and tumor size (≤ 7 cm vs > 7 cm, p = 0.004). Moreover, K-M analysis showed that PDIA2 was associated with patients' survival in RCC. PDIA2 was expressed much higher in cancer cells A498 than 786-O than that in 293 T cells. After PDIA2 was knocked down, cell proliferation, migration and invasion was potently inhibited. But cell apoptotic rate increased reversely. Furthermore, the efficacy of Sunitinib on RCC cells was strengthened after PDIA2 knockdown. In addition, knockdown of PDIA2 gene leaded to downregulation of levels of JNK1/2, phosphorylated JNK1/2, c-JUN, and Stat3. But this inhibition was partially released when JNK1/2 was overexpressed. In consistent, cell proliferation was also partially recovered. In summary, PDIA2 plays important role in progression of RCC and JNK signaling pathway might be regulated by PDIA2. This study suggests PDIA2 as a candidate target for therapy of RCC.

Abstract
Aging attenuates the overall responsiveness of the immune system to eradicate pathogens. The increased production of pro-inflammatory cytokines by innate immune cells under basal conditions, termed inflammaging, contributes to impaired innate immune responsiveness towards pathogen-mediated stimulation and limits antigen-presenting activity. Adaptive immune responses are attenuated as well due to lowered numbers of naïve lymphocytes and their impaired responsiveness towards antigen-specific stimulation. Additionally, the numbers of immunoregulatory cell types, comprising regulatory T cells and myeloid-derived suppressor cells, that inhibit the activity of innate and adaptive immune cells are elevated. This review aims to summarize our knowledge on the cellular and molecular causes of immunosenescence while also taking into account senescence effects that constitute immune evasion mechanisms in the case of chronic viral infections and cancer. For tumor therapy numerous nanoformulated drugs have been developed to overcome poor solubility of compounds and to enable cell-directed delivery in order to restore immune functions, e.g., by addressing dysregulated signaling pathways. Further, nanovaccines which efficiently address antigen-presenting cells to mount sustained anti-tumor immune responses have been clinically evaluated. Further, senolytics that selectively deplete senescent cells are being tested in a number of clinical trials. Here we discuss the potential use of such drugs to improve anti-aging therapy.

Abstract
Multi-target Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (MTKIs) have drawn substantial attention in tumor therapy. MTKIs could inhibit tumor cell proliferation and induce apoptosis by blocking the activity of tyrosine kinase. However, the toxicity and drug resistance of MTKIs severely restrict their further clinical application. The nano pharmaceutical technology based on MTKIs has attracted ever-increasing attention in recent years. Researchers deliver MTKIs through various types of nanocarriers to overcome drug resistance and improve considerably therapeutic efficiency. This review intends to summarize comprehensive applications of MTKIs nanoparticles in malignant tumor treatment. Firstly, the mechanism and toxicity were introduced. Secondly, various nanocarriers for MTKIs delivery were outlined. Thirdly, the combination treatment schemes and drug resistance reversal strategies were emphasized to improve the outcomes of cancer therapy. Finally, conclusions and perspectives were summarized to guide future research.

Abstract
Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a highly malignant disease with poor prognosis. It is urgent to find effective biomarkers. Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 2 Subunit Beta (EIF2S2) is a subunit of heterotrimeric G protein EIF2, and its function is still unclear. We studied the role of EIF2S2 in the malignant progression of liver cancer and its relationship with immune infiltration. Methods: Download the RNA expression and clinical information of EIF2S2 from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, analyze the relationship between the expression of EIF2S2 and the prognosis and clinicopathological characteristics of HCC, analyze the differential genes by Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) and tumor related immune infiltrating cells. The Protein expression level of EIF2S2 was obtained from Human Protein Atlas (HPA) databases. The relationship between EIF2S2 expression and immune infiltrates in HCC was analyzed on TIMER 2.0. The data processing analysis based on R language. Drug Sensitivity data from Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer (GDSC). Results: EIF2S2 is highly expressed in HCC patients and is associated with poor prognosis. The expression of EIF2S2 was also correlated with age, clinical stage and pathological grade. Univariate and multivariate COX regression analysis showed that EIF2S2 was an independent risk factor for survival. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of EIF2S2 also confirmed the diagnostic value of EIF2S2 in HCC patients. Through GO and KEGG enrichment analysis, EIF2S2 expression was found to be closely related to some immune pathways. The expression of EIF2S2 was correlated with memory B cell, plasma B cell, CD8+ T cell, CD4+ resting memory T cell and the expression of some immune checkpoints, such as PDCD1, TIGIT and CTLA-4. It is also more sensitive to paclitaxel, sunitinib and other drugs. Conclusion: This study shows that EIF2S2 can be used as a prognostic factor for HCC, which is closely related to immune infiltration and immune checkpoints, and may play a potential regulatory role in predicting drug sensitivity.

Abstract
Background: Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common type of renal cell carcinoma, accounting for approximately 70% of all RCC cases. Cuproptosis, a novel mechanism of cell death, may be a potential target for intervention in tumor development. Methods: Cuproptosis-related prognostic lncRNAs were identified by co-expression analysis and univariable Cox regression. Five lncRNA profiles were obtained by LASSO regression analysis, and a model with high accuracy was constructed to assess the prognosis of ccRCC patients based on these cuproptosis-related lncRNAs. Survival analysis and time-dependent ROC curves were performed for the α and β groups, and the results confirmed the high accuracy of the model in predicting the prognosis of ccRCC patients. Immunoassay, principal component analysis (PCA), and drug sensitivity analysis were also performed for different risk categories. Finally, we classified ccRCC patients into two different subtypes by consistent class clustering, and performed immune checkpoint activation, tumor microenvironment analysis, PCA, and drug sensitivity analysis for different subtypes. Results: We developed a prognostic model using five cuproptosis-associated lncRNAs, which was found to be highly accurate in predicting ccRCC patients’ prognosis. Immunotherapy may be more beneficial to the hyper-risk category and the C2 subtype. Conclusion: The results of this study confirm that five cuproptosis-associated lncRNAs can be used as potential prognostic markers for ccRCC.

Abstract
Simple Summary Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the sixth most frequently diagnosed cancer in men and the tenth in women with a rising incidence. The treatment of metastasized RCC has dramatically changed in the last decade, improving the overall survival of patients significantly. In this context, cornerstones of the treatment have been tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI), with Sunitinib being the preferred first-line treatment for most cases. With the introduction of immunotherapy and combination therapy, this changed recently. The current article summarizes the available literature on TKI treatment of metastasized RCC and shows the current part of TKIs in the treatment algorithm as well as its potential future role. Abstract Background: To review and discuss the literature on applying tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in the treatment of metastasised renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). Materials and Methods: Medline, PubMed, the Cochrane database, and Embase were screened for randomised controlled trials, clinical trials, and reviews on treating renal cell carcinoma, and the role of TKI. Each substance’s results were summarised descriptively. Results: While TKI monotherapy is not currently recommended as a first-line treatment for metastasized renal cell carcinoma, TKIs are regularly applied to treat treatment-naïve patients in combination with immunotherapy. TKIs depict the first-choice alternative therapy if immunotherapy is not tolerated or inapplicable. Currently, seven different TKIs are available to treat mRCC. Conclusions: The importance of TKIs in a monotherapeutic approach has declined in the past few years. The current trend toward combination therapy for mRCC, however, includes TKIs as one significant component of treatment regimens. We found that to remain applicable to ongoing studies, both when including new substances and when testing novel combinations of established drugs. TKIs are of major importance for the treatment of renal cancer now, as well as for the foreseeable future.

Abstract
It is well known that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play an important role in the regulation of tumor genesis and development. They can modulate gene expression of transcriptional regulation, epigenetic regulation of chromatin modification, and post-transcriptional regulation, thus influencing the biological behavior of tumors, such as cell proliferation, apoptosis, cell cycle, invasion, and migration. Tumor angiogenesis not only provides nutrients and helps excrete metabolites, but it also opens a pathway for tumor metastasis. Anti-angiogenic therapy has become one of the effective treatment methods for tumor. But its drug resistance leads to the limitation of clinical application. Recent studies have shown that lncRNAs are closely related to tumor angiogenesis and anti-angiogenic therapy resistance, which provides a new direction for tumor research. lncRNAs are expected to be new targets for tumor therapy. For the first time to our knowledge, this paper reviews advancement of lncRNAs in tumor angiogenesis and anti-angiogenic therapy resistance and further discusses their potential clinical application.

Abstract
The past decades witnessed the clinical employment of targeted therapies including but not limited to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) that restrain a broad variety of pro-tumorigenic signals. TKIs can be categorized into (i) agents that directly target cancer cells, (ii) normalize angiogenesis or (iii) affect cells of the hematologic lineage. However, a clear distinction of TKIs based on this definition is limited by the fact that many TKIs designed to inhibit cancer cells have also effects on immune cells that are being discovered. Additionally, TKIs originally designed to target hematological cancers exhibit bioactivities on healthy cells of the same hematological lineage. TKIs have been described to improve immune recognition and cancer immunosurveillance, providing the scientific basis to combine TKIs with immunotherapy. Indeed, combination of TKIs with immunotherapy showed synergistic effects in preclinical models and clinical trials and some combinations of TKIs normalizing angiogenesis with immune checkpoint blocking antibodies have already been approved by the FDA for cancer therapy. However, the identification of appropriate drug combinations as well as optimal dosing and scheduling needs to be improved in order to obtain tangible progress in cancer care. This Trial Watch summarizes active clinical trials combining TKIs with various immunotherapeutic strategies to treat cancer patients.

[PMID: 35205613 PMCID: PMC8869870 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14040866] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2021] [Revised: 01/25/2022] [Accepted: 01/27/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Drug resistance to systematic treatment in genitourinary tumors severely aggravated the burden on patients and society. Multiple mechanisms were involved in drug resistance. As typical non-coding RNAs, circRNAs play a critical role in the onset and development of cancers and several studies implied their function in the regulation of drug resistance. Here, we reviewed the investigations of circRNAs’ behavior in drug resistance of genitourinary cancers and summarized the underlying mechanisms. This review emphasized the essential role of circRNAs in drug resistance development and also pointed out the potential topics that need further investigations in the future. Abstract In recent years, systematic treatment has made great progress in genitourinary tumors. However, some patients develop resistance to the treatments, resulting in an increase in mortality. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) form a class of non-coding RNAs with high stability and significant clinical relevance. Accumulating evidence indicates that circRNAs play a vital role in cancer development and tumor chemotherapy resistance. This review summarizes the molecular and cellular mechanisms of drug resistance mediated by circRNAs to common drugs used in the treatment of genitourinary tumors. Several circRNAs were identified to regulate the responsiveness to systemic treatments in genitourinary tumors, including chemotherapies such as cisplatin and targeted therapies such as enzalutamide. Canonically, cicrRNAs participate in the competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network, or in some cases directly interact with proteins, regulate downstream pathways, and even some circRNAs have the potential to produce proteins or polypeptides. Several cellular mechanisms were involved in circRNA-dependent drug resistance, including autophagy, cancer stem cells, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and exosomes. The potential clinical prospect of circRNAs in regulating tumor drug resistance was also discussed.

Abstract
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a malignancy of the kidney originating from the tubular epithelium. Inactivation of the von Hippel–Lindau tumor-suppressor gene (VHL) is found in most clear cell renal cell carcinomas (ccRCCs). The VHL–HIF–VEGF/VEGFR pathway, which involves the von Hippel–Lindau tumor suppressor protein (VHL), hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and its receptor (VEGFR), is a well-studied therapeutic target for metastatic ccRCC. Therefore, over the past decade, anti-angiogenic agents targeting VEGFR have served as the standard treatment for metastatic RCC. Recently, based on the immunomodulatory effect of anti-VEGFR therapy, anti-angiogenic agents and immune checkpoint inhibitor combination strategies have also emerged as therapeutic strategies. These advances were made possible by the improved understanding of the VHL–HIF pathway. In this review, we summarize the historical evolution of ccRCC treatments, with a focus on the involvement of the VHL–HIF pathway.

Abstract
Mutations in leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) are a frequent cause of autosomal dominant Parkinson’s disease (PD) and have been associated with familial and sporadic PD. Reducing the kinase activity of LRRK2 is a promising therapeutic strategy since pathogenic mutations increase the kinase activity. Several small-molecule LRRK2 inhibitors are currently under investigation for the treatment of PD. However, drug discovery and development are always accompanied by high costs and a risk of late failure. The use of already approved drugs for a new indication, which is known as drug repositioning, can reduce the cost and risk. In this study, we applied a structure-based drug repositioning approach to identify new LRRK2 inhibitors that are already approved for a different indication. In a large-scale structure-based screening, we compared the protein–ligand interaction patterns of known LRRK2 inhibitors with protein–ligand complexes in the PDB. The screening yielded 6 drug repositioning candidates. Two of these candidates, Sunitinib and Crizotinib, demonstrated an inhibition potency (IC50) and binding affinity (Kd) in the nanomolar to micromolar range. While Sunitinib has already been known to inhibit LRRK2, Crizotinib is a novel LRRK2 binder. Our results underscore the potential of structure-based methods for drug discovery and development. In light of the recent breakthroughs in cryo-electron microscopy and structure prediction, we believe that structure-based approaches like ours will grow in importance.

Abstract
Background The immune microenvironment is a critical regulator of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) progression. However, the underlying mechanisms the regulatory role of immune-related long non-coding RNAs (irlncRNAs) in the ccRCC tumor microenvironment (TME) are still obscure. Herein, we investigated prognostics role of irlncRNAs for ccRCC. Methods The raw data of patients with ccRCC were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, and immune-related genes were obtained from the ImmPort database. First, we investigated the correlation between the immune-related genes and irlncRNAs. Then, we identified the differentially expressed irlncRNA pairs (ILRPs) between normal and cancer tissue samples, and prognostic model was constructed with the differentially expressed ILRPs. We further explored whether the signature risk scores of ILRPs had a considerable impact on immune cell infiltration. Finally, we performed a drug sensitivity analysis based on risk score. Results There were 13 upregulated and 40 downregulated irlncRNAs between the ccRCC and normal tissue samples. We further selected the irlncRNAs that significantly affect the prognosis of patients with ccRCC via univariate Cox, lasso regression, and multivariate regression analyses. Twelve ILRPs were used to construct a prognostic signature. The model showed the ILRPs model could be used to assess the prognosis of ccRCC patients. Study of the influence of risk score and clinical characteristics on the prognosis of patients with ccRCC showed risk score to be an independent factor affecting the outcome of ccRCC. We further performed the difference analysis of immune cell abundance between ccRCC and normal tissue samples. The results showed that patients with higher abundance of M0 macrophages, plasma cells, follicular helper T cells, and regulatory T cells (Tregs) had a poor outcome. Finally, we performed a drug sensitivity analysis based on risk score. The results showed that high-risk score patients are sensitive to orafenib, sunitinib, temsirolimus, cisplatin, and gemcitabine. Conclusions Our study has developed a novel and reasonable ILPRs model for prognostic prediction, which does not require transcriptional levels to be detected.

Abstract
Treatment with chimeric antigen receptor-modified T cell (CAR-T) has demonstrated promising therapeutic efficacy in hematologic malignancies. However, the therapeutic efficacy is still very limited for solid tumors. An immunosuppressive microenvironment is one of the main reasons for the limited efficacy. Some chemotherapeutic agents exhibit immune microenvironment modulation. Therefore, combination with chemotherapeutic agents may be one of the promising strategies to enhance the therapeutic efficacy of CAR-T against solid tumors. Sunitinib modulates the antitumor immune response by improving T-cell infiltration and function while reducing immunosuppressive factors. The authors constructed a second-generation CAR targeting human renal cell carcinoma (RCC)-specific antigen carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) with the costimulatory domain of 4-1BB. The results of cytokine releasing and cell killing assays showed that the CAIX-CAR-T cells have specific effector functions against CAIX renal cancer cells in vitro. Combination therapy with CAIX-CAR-T and sunitinib showed synergistic efficacy against a mouse lung metastasis model of human RCC. CAIX-CAR-T cells in the mice of the combination therapy group showed stronger proliferation and tumor infiltration than that in the mice of the CAIX-CAR-T monotherapy group. The possible mechanisms of the synergistic efficacy are: (1) sunitinib caused upregulation of CAIX in tumor cells; (2) sunitinib decreased frequency of myeloid-derived suppressor cells in the tumor microenvironment. Our study supplied an innovative immunotherapeutic approach whereby combining CAIX-CAR-T with sunitinib induces a potent antitumor response in an experimental model of metastatic RCC. The combination strategy should be considered as a potential approach to augment adoptive CAR-T cell immunotherapy.

Abstract
This study is devoted to the development of a methodological approach to mathematical analysis and data interpretation of blood serum phosphorescence intensity in cancer patients for determining the pathological states and differential diagnostics of oncological process stages. The purpose of the study is blood serum phosphorescence research in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) and stomach adenocarcinoma (SAC) and determination of the ultraweak luminescence role for diagnostics of the disease, determining its stages, control of pathogenetic therapy efficiency and forecast of recovery. The values of phosphorescence intensity of blood serum films in patients with CRC and SAC are significantly higher than the corresponding values for the control group. Contrary to the absolute intensity, the relative intensity increase compared to the control group is much more informative for oncoprocess diagnostics, since it exhibits three times increase even at the first stage of tumoral process. Serum phosphorescence intensity continues to increase with progressing of the disease. As the result of our study, the relative intensity increase compared to the first stage can be recommended as an informative indicator for differential diagnostics of oncological process stages. As a conclusion, determination of blood serum phosphorescence intensity can be considered as a sensitive and specific diagnostic method in oncology. With a correct methodological approach to data processing and interpretation, this method can be used in clinical practice for determining the oncopathological states, differential diagnostics of oncoprocess stages and diagnostics of precancer changes, which precede tumoral process development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE) is one first-line option therapy for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) not suitable for surgical resection. AIMS We evaluated the effects of sunitinib plus doxorubicin-TACE on bleeding or liver failure. METHODS Seventy-eight patients with HCC were included in this randomized, double-blind study. They received one to three TACE plus either sunitinib or placebo four weeks out of six for one year. The occurrence of severe bleeding or liver failure was assessed during the week after the TACE. The safety and survival outcomes were evaluated. RESULTS No bleeding complication was reported. One and two liver failures were respectively observed in sunitinib and placebo patients. Compliance to sunitinib treatment was acceptable. Sunitinib dose reduction occurred in 37% of patients due to acute toxicity. Main grade 3-4 toxicities were: thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, increased bilirubin, increased ALT and asthenia. In the sunitinib group, the median PFS and OS were 9.05 [5.81;11.63] and 25.0 [13.5;36.8] months, respectively. In the placebo group, the median PFS and OS were 5.51 [4.14;7.79] and 20.5 [15.1;30.6] months, respectively. CONCLUSIONS TACE plus sunitinib in the first-line therapy for patients with HCC not suitable for surgical resection was feasible. CLINICALTRIALS. GOV NUMBER NCT01164202.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preventing premature ovarian failure (POF) is a major challenge in oncology. With conventional regimens, cytotoxicity-associated POF involves primordial follicles (PF) pool depletion by apoptosis or overactivation mechanisms, notably mediated by the ABL/TAp63 and PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathways. New anticancer treatments have been designed to target pathways implicated in tumor growth. Although concerns regarding fertility arise with these targeted therapies, we hypothesized that targeted therapies may exert off-tumor effects on PF that might delay POF. We provide an overview of evidence concerning these off-tumor effects on PF. Limitations and future potential implications of these findings are discussed. DESIGN PubMed was searched by combining Boolean operators with the following keywords: fertility, ovarian, follicle, anti-tumoral, cancer, targeted, cytotoxic, and chemotherapy. RESULTS Cisplatin-related PF apoptosis via the ABL/TAp63 pathway was targeted with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, imatinib, in mice, but effects were recently challenged by findings on human ovarian xenografts in mice. In cyclophosphamide-treated mice, PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway inhibition with mTOR inhibitors and AS101 preserved the PF pool. Proteasome and GSK3 inhibitors were evaluated for direct and indirect follicle DNA damage prevention. Surprisingly, evidence for cytotoxic drug association with PF pool preservation was found. We also describe selected non-anticancer molecules that may minimize gonadotoxicity. CONCLUSION Not all anticancer treatments are associated with POF, particularly since the advent of targeted therapies. The feasibility of associating a protective drug targeting PF exhaustion mechanisms with cytotoxic treatments should be evaluated, as a way of decreasing the need for conventional fertility preservation techniques. Further evaluations are required for transfer into clinical practice. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE Anticancer therapies are associated with infertility in 10%-70% of patients, which is the result of primordial follicles pool depletion. Alone or associated with gonadotoxic treatments, some targeted therapies may exert favorable off-targets effects on the primordial follicle pool by slowing down their exhaustion. Current evidence of these effects relies on murine models or human in vitro models. Evaluation of these protective strategies in humans is challenging; however, if these results are confirmed with clinical and biological data, it not only could be a new approach to female fertility preservation but also would change standard fertility strategies.

Abstract
The microphthalmia of bHLH-LZ transcription factor (MiT/TFE) family chromosomal translocation or overexpression is linked with a poor prognosis in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) with elevated recurrence and drug resistance, but the molecular mechanism is not fully understood. Here, we investigated whether the resistance to sunitinib (Sun), the standard treatment for metastatic ccRCC, is due to up-regulation of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) by the transcription factor E3 (TFE3). In this study, we propose that TFE3 but not TFEB is essential for tumour survival which was associated with the poorer survival of cancer patients. We also found a positive correlation between TFE3 and PD-L1 expression in ccRCC cells and tissues. Sun treatment led to enhanced TFE3 nuclear translocation and PD-L1 expression. Finally, we observed the therapeutic benefit of Sun plus PD-L1 inhibition which enhanced CD8+ cytolytic activity and thus tumour suppression in a xenografted mouse model. These data revealed that TFE3 is a potent tumour promoting gene and it mediates resistance to Sun by induction of PD-L1 in ccRCC. Our data provide a strong rationale to apply Sun and PD-L1 inhibition jointly as a novel immunotherapeutic approach for ccRCC treatment.

Identification of low-dose multidrug combinations for sunitinib-naive and pre-treated renal cell carcinoma. Br J Cancer 2020; 123:556-567.

Abstract
Background Combinations of drugs can improve the efficacy of cancer treatment, enable the reduction of side effects and the occurrence of acquired drug resistance. Methods We approached this challenge mathematically by using the validated technology called the Therapeutically Guided Multidrug Optimization (TGMO) method. In a set of genetically distinct human renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cell lines, either treated chronically with sunitinib (−ST) or sunitinib-naive, we identified cell line-specific low-dose-optimised drug combinations (ODC). Results Six cell-type-specific low-dose drug combinations for three sunitinib-naive as well as three sunitinib pre-treated cells were established. These ODCs effectively inhibited the RCC cell metabolic activity while being ineffective in non-cancerous cells. Based on a single screening test and three searches, starting with ten drugs, we identified highly efficacious drug mixtures containing four drugs. All ODCs contained AZD4547 (FGFR signalling pathway inhibitor) and pictilisib (pan-phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor), but varied in the third and fourth drug. ODC treatment significantly decreased cell metabolic activity (up to 70%) and induced apoptosis, independent of the pretreatment with sunitinib. The ODCs outperformed sunitinib, the standard care for RCC. Moreover, short-term starvation potentiated the ODC activity. The translation of the 2D-based results to 3D heterotypic co-culture models revealed significant inhibition of the spheroid growth (up to 95%). Conclusion We demonstrate a promising low-dose drug combination development to obtain drug combinations effective in naive as well as resistant tumours. Nevertheless, we emphasise the need for further mechanistic investigation and preclinical development.

Abstract
Rationale: Deregulation of metabolism and induction of vascularization are major hallmarks of cancer. Using a new multimodal preclinical imaging instrument, we explored a sequence of events leading to sunitinib-induced resistance in a murine model of paraganglioma (PGL) invalidated for the expression of succinate dehydrogenase subunit B (Sdhb-/-). Methods: Two groups of Sdhb-/- tumors bearing mice were treated with sunitinib (6 weeks) or vehicle (3 weeks). Concurrent Positron Emission Tomography (PET) with 2′ -deoxy-2′-[18F]fluoro-D-glucose (FDG), Computed Tomography (CT) and Ultrafast Ultrasound Imaging (UUI) imaging sessions were performed once a week and ex vivo samples were analyzed by western blots and histology. Results: PET-CT-UUI enabled to detect a rapid growth of Sdhb-/- tumors with increased glycolysis and vascular development. Sunitinib treatment prevented tumor growth, vessel development and reduced FDG uptake at week 1 and 2 (W1-2). Thereafter, imaging revealed tumor escape from sunitinib treatment: FDG uptake in tumors increased at W3, followed by tumor growth and vessel development at W4-5. Perfused vessels were preferentially distributed in the hypermetabolic regions of the tumors and the perfused volume increased during escape from sunitinib treatment. Finally, initial changes in total lesion glycolysis and maximum vessel length at W1 were predictive of resistance to sunitinib. Conclusion: These results demonstrate an adaptive resistance of Sdhb-/- tumors to six weeks of sunitinib treatment. Early metabolic changes and delayed vessel architecture changes were detectable and predictable in vivo early during anti-angiogenic treatment. Simultaneous metabolic, anatomical and functional imaging can monitor precisely the effects of anti-angiogenic treatment of tumors.

Abstract
Identifying stable gene markers at an individual level can help to understand the genetic mechanisms of each individual patient and accomplish personalized medicine. In this paper, we propose an efficient framework to identify sample-specific markers. Gene expression data first is transformed to a corresponding likelihood matrix to alleviate inherent noise besides adding population information to each sample. Then those significantly differential genes or gene pairs are further mapped to a STRING network for analysis by assuming that the likelihood of each gene or gene pairs in the control group follows a Gaussian distribution. The proposed method is applied to three benchmark datasets including lung adenocarcinoma, kidney renal clear cell carcinoma, and uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma. It is found that disease gene markers identified by the proposed methods outperform the previous sample-specific network (SSN) method in both subtyping and survival analysis. Furthermore, we exploit the application of the subtype markers in following drug selection. The difference of the enriched drug set may reflect some underlying mechanisms of the subtypes and shed light on selecting appropriate drugs for each cancer subtype.

AXL receptor tyrosine kinase as a promising anti-cancer approach: functions, molecular mechanisms and clinical applications. Mol Cancer 2019; 18:153. [PMID: 31684958 PMCID: PMC6827209 DOI: 10.1186/s12943-019-1090-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 272] [Impact Index Per Article: 54.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2019] [Accepted: 10/18/2019] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Molecular targeted therapy for cancer has been a research hotspot for decades. AXL is a member of the TAM family with the high-affinity ligand growth arrest-specific protein 6 (GAS6). The Gas6/AXL signalling pathway is associated with tumour cell growth, metastasis, invasion, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), angiogenesis, drug resistance, immune regulation and stem cell maintenance. Different therapeutic agents targeting AXL have been developed, typically including small molecule inhibitors, monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), nucleotide aptamers, soluble receptors, and several natural compounds. In this review, we first provide a comprehensive discussion of the structure, function, regulation, and signalling pathways of AXL. Then, we highlight recent strategies for targeting AXL in the treatment of cancer.AXL-targeted drugs, either as single agents or in combination with conventional chemotherapy or other small molecule inhibitors, are likely to improve the survival of many patients. However, future investigations into AXL molecular signalling networks and robust predictive biomarkers are warranted to select patients who could receive clinical benefit and to avoid potential toxicities.

Theranostics 2019; 9:6175-6190. [PMID: 31534544 PMCID: PMC6735520 DOI: 10.7150/thno.35572] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2019] [Accepted: 07/26/2019] [Indexed: 01/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Rationale: Although sunitinib has been shown to improve the survival rate of advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients, poor drug response is a major challenge that reduces patient benefit. It is important to elucidate the underlying mechanism so that the therapeutic response to sunitinib can be restored. Methods: We used an Illumina HumanMethylation 850K microarray to find methylation-differentiated CpG sites between sunitinib-nonresponsive and -responsive RCC tissues and Sequenom MassARRAY methylation analysis to verify the methylation chip results. We verified glutaminyl peptide cyclotransferase (QPCT) expression in sunitinib-nonresponsive and -responsive RCC tissues via qRT-PCR, western blot and immunohistochemical assays. Then, cell counting kit 8 (CCK-8), plate colony formation and flow cytometric assays were used to verify the function of QPCT in RCC sunitinib resistance after QPCT intervention or overexpression. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) was performed to clarify the upstream regulatory mechanism of QPCT. A human proteome microarray assay was used to identify downstream proteins that interact with QPCT, and co-immunoprecipitation (co-IP) and confocal laser microscopy were used to verify the protein chip results. Results: We found that the degree of methylation in the QPCT promoter region was significantly different between sunitinib-nonresponsive and -responsive RCC tissues. In the sunitinib-nonresponsive tissues, the degree of methylation in the QPCT promoter region was significantly reduced, and the expression of QPCT was upregulated, which correlated with a clinically poor response to sunitinib. A knockdown of QPCT conferred sunitinib sensitivity traits to RCC cells, whereas an overexpression of QPCT restored sunitinib resistance in RCC cells. Mechanistically, reducing the methylation degree of the QPCT promoter region by 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (decitabine) in RCC cells could increase the expression of QPCT and NF-κB (p65) bound to the QPCT promoter region, positively regulating its expression, while the hypermethylation in the QPCT promoter region could inhibit the binding of NF-κB (p65). QPCT could bind to HRAS and attenuate the ubiquitination of HRAS, thus increasing its stability and leading to the activation of the ERK pathway in RCC cells. Conclusion: QPCT may be a novel predictor of the response to sunitinib therapy in RCC patients and a potential therapeutic target.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Angiogenesis, the formation of blood vessel, is required for invasive tumor growth and metastasis. In this study, the effects of lidocaine, an amide-link local anesthetic, on angiogenesis and tumor growth were investigated. METHODS In vitro angiogenesis assays were conducted using human umbilical vascular endothelial cell (HUVEC). Essential molecules involved in vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling were analyzed. Tumor angiogenesis was analyzed using in vivo mouse tumor model. RESULTS Lidocaine at clinically relevant concentrations inhibited angiogenesis. Lidocaine inhibited endothelial cell in vitro capillary network formation on Matrigel through interfering early stage of angiogenesis. In addition, lidocaine inhibited vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-stimulated endothelial cell migration and proliferation without affecting cell adhesion. Lidocaine also induced endothelial cell apoptosis in the presence of VEGF. Lidocaine suppressed VEGF-activated phosphorylation of VEGF receptor 2 (VEGFR2), PLCγ-PKC-MAPK and FAK-paxillin in endothelial cells, demonstrating that VEGF, PLC, MAPK and FAK-paxillin suppression is associated with the antiangiogenic effect of lidocaine. Importantly, the in vitro observations were translatable to in vivo B16 melanoma mouse model. Lidocaine significantly inhibited tumor angiogenesis, leading to delay of tumor growth. CONCLUSIONS This study is the first to report that lidocaine acts as an angiogenesis inhibitor. The findings provide preclinical evidence into the potential mechanisms by which lidocaine may negatively affect cancer growth and metastasis.

Sunitinib Prior to Planned Nephrectomy in Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma: Angiogenesis Biomarkers Predict Clinical Outcome in the Prospective Phase II PREINSUT Trial. Clin Cancer Res 2018; 24:5534-5542. [PMID: 30061359 DOI: 10.1158/1078-0432.ccr-18-1045] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2018] [Revised: 06/22/2018] [Accepted: 07/24/2018] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Purpose: The PREINSUT study characterized factors predictive of response to sunitinib given before planned nephrectomy in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC).Patients and Methods: This French multicenter, prospective, open-label, phase II trial (NCT00930345) included treatment-naïve patients with clear-cell mRCC. Patients received two cycles of sunitinib before nephrectomy. The primary objective was to evaluate the potential of circulating angiogenesis-related biomarkers measured before and on treatment for identifying responders based on primary renal tumor (PRT) size change. Secondary objectives were to evaluate the ability of biomarkers to predict progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).Results: Thirty-two patients were enrolled. The median PFS was 4.5 months, and the median OS was 12.4 months. OS was significantly longer in responding patients (28.8 vs. 11.1 months; P = 0.03). Of 27 patients evaluable for PRT response, nine (33.3%) had a ≥10% decrease in PRT size. Baseline biomarkers significantly associated with outcome were endothelial progenitor cells (PRT response); vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A, stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1), soluble VEGF receptors (sVEGFR)1 and 2 (PFS); and SDF-1 and sVEGFR1 (OS). During treatment, changes in biomarkers associated with outcome were SDF-1 and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB (PRT response), sVEGFR2 (PFS), and SDF-1 and sVEGFR1 (OS). There was no correlation between plasma sunitinib or its active metabolite steady-state trough concentrations and clinical outcome.Conclusions: Angiogenesis-related parameters that could reflect hypoxia seem to be associated with worse outcome in mRCC. As blood biomarkers are not subjected to tumor heterogeneity and allow longitudinal follow-up, circulating angiogenesis profile has a promising place in antiangiogenic therapy guidance.
