BMC Cancer 2024; 24:257. [PMID: 38395838 PMCID: PMC10893751 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-024-12001-6] [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: 08/08/2023] [Accepted: 02/13/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND CCRT is presently the standard treatment for LA-NSCLC. RP is one of the main obstacles to the completion of thoracic radiation therapy, resulting in limited survival benefits in NSCLC patients. This research aims to explore the role of Endostar in the occurrence of grade≥2 RP and clinical curative effect in LA-NSCLC patients. METHODS This study retrospectively analyzed 122 patients with stage III NSCLC who received CCRT from December 2008 to December 2017, or Endostar intravenous drip concurrently with chemoradiotherapy (Endostar + CCRT group). Standard toxicity of the pneumonitis endpoint was also collected by CTCAE V5.0. We further summarized other available studies on the role of Endostar in the prognosis of NSCLC patients and the incidence of RP. RESULTS There were 76 cases in the CCRT group and 46 cases in the CCRT+ Endostar group. In the CCRT+ Endostar group, the occurrence of grade ≥2 RP in patients with V20Gy ≥25% was significantly higher than that in patients with V20Gy < 25% (p = 0.001). In the cohorts with V20Gy < 25%, 0 cases of 29 patients treated with Endostar developed grade ≥2 RP was lower than in the CCRT group (p = 0.026). The re-analysis of data from other available studies indicated that Endostar plus CCRT could be more efficient and safely in the occurrence of grade≥2 RP with LA-NSCLC. CONCLUSIONS When receiving CCRT for LA-NSCLC patients, simultaneous combination of Endostar is recommended to enhance clinical benefit and reduce pulmonary toxicity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to outline the pre-clinical efficacy and safety pharmacology of PEGylated recombinant human endostatin (M2ES) according to the requirements of new drug application. METHODS The purity of M2ES was evaluated by using silver staining. Transwell migration assay was applied to detect the bioactivity of M2ES in vitro. The antitumor efficacy of M2ES was evaluated in an athymic nude mouse xenograft model of pancreatic cancer (Panc-1) and gastric cancer (MNK45). BALB/C mice were treated with different doses of M2ES (6, 12 and 24 mg/kg) intravenously, both autonomic activity and cooperative sleep were monitored before and after drug administration. RESULTS The apparent molecular weight of M2ES was about 50 kDa, and the purity was greater than 98%. Compared with the control group, M2ES significantly inhibits human micro-vascular endothelial cells (HMECs) migration in vitro. Notably, weekly administration of M2ES showed a significant antitumor efficacy when compared with the control group. Treatment of M2ES (24mg/kg or below) showed no obvious effect on both autonomic activity and hypnosis. CONCLUSION On the basis of the pre-clinical efficacy and safety pharmacology data of M2ES, M2ES can be authorized to carry out further clinical studies.

Abstract
Targeted drug therapy plays an important role in the clinical application of non-small cell lung cancer, especially adenocarcinoma. However, for patients with advanced disease, drug resistance after targeted therapy, unclear target, and other reasons that cannot or do not want surgery, the combination of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunity, etc. is often used. The synergistic effect of targeted drugs and radiotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer has shown good clinical efficacy. This article reviews the clinical progress of targeted drug therapy combined with radiotherapy in advanced non-small cell lung cancer in recent years, in order to provide new ideas for further clinical research of this treatment mode.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endostar is a strong angiogenesis inhibitor that is effective in treating non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but the effect of Endostar in the treatment of patients with EGFR-TKI-resistant NSCLC remains unclear. We evaluated the clinical efficacy and safety of Endostar in EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients resistant to EGFR inhibition treatment. METHODS From January 1, 2016 to June 30, 2018, 68 patients were selected from the 4 institutions for the study. Patients with NSCLC received Endostar plus chemotherapy every 21-day cycle. Chemotherapy types included platinum-containing dual drugs and platinum-free single drugs. Endostar was administered by intermittent intravenous infusion or continuous microinfusion pump infusion. The overall response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR) and adverse events were analyzed. Survival of patients was also evaluated. RESULTS For all patients, the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 2.8 months, and the median overall survival (OS) was 14.2 months. PFS and OS in the Endostar pump continuous group were better than those in the Endostar intravenous infusion group. The disease control rate (DCR) was 79.4%. A total of 28 (41.2%) patients experienced varying grades of adverse events during treatment. No treatment-associated deaths were observed. The grade 3 treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were myelosuppression, weakness, and nausea/vomiting. CONCLUSIONS Endostar was effective and well tolerated in advanced NSCLC patients. Endostar treatment showed promising survival results in EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients.

Abstract
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most prevalent type of lung cancer, which is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Over the past decades, tumour angiogenesis has been intensely studied in the treatment of NSCLC due to its fundamental role in cancer progression. Several anti-angiogenic drugs, such as recombinant endostatin (RE), have been evaluated in several preclinical and clinical trials, with mixed and often disappointing results. However, there is currently an emerging interest in RE due to its ability to create a vascular normalization window, which could further improve treatment efficacy of the standard NSCLC treatment. This review provides an overview of preclinical and clinical studies that combined RE and radiotherapy for NSCLC treatment. Furthermore, it highlights the ongoing challenges that have to be overcome in order to maximize the benefit; as well as the potential advantage of combinations with particle therapy and immunotherapy, which are rapidly gaining momentum in the treatment landscape of NSCLC. Different angiogenic and immunosuppressive effects are observed between particle therapy and conventional X-ray radiotherapy. The combination of RE, particle therapy and immunotherapy presents a promising future therapeutic triad for NSCLC.

Abstract
Organ fibrosis, particularly of the lungs, causes significant morbidity and mortality. Effective treatments are needed to reduce the health burden. A fragment of the carboxyl-terminal end of collagen XVIII/endostatin reduces skin and lung fibrosis. This fragment was modified to facilitate its production in plants, which resulted in the recombinant fusion protein, END55. We found that expression of END55 had significant anti-fibrotic effects on the treatment and prevention of skin and lung fibrosis in a bleomycin mouse model. We validated these effects in a second mouse model of pulmonary fibrosis involving inducible, lung-targeted expression of transforming growth factor β1. END55 also exerted anti-fibrotic effects in human lung and skin tissues maintained in organ culture in which fibrosis was experimentally induced. The anti-fibrotic effect of END55 was mediated by a decrease in the expression of extracellular matrix genes and an increase in the levels of matrix-degrading enzymes. Finally, END55 reduced fibrosis in the lungs of patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) who underwent lung transplantation due to the severity of their lung disease, displaying efficacy in human tissues directly relevant to human disease. These findings demonstrate that END55 is an effective anti-fibrotic therapy in different organs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mucosal melanoma is rare and has distinct clinical and genetic features. Even with advances in targeted and immune therapies, the survival of patients with advanced or recurrent mucosal melanomas remains poor. The standard treatment remains controversial and we conducted this real-world study aimed to explore continuous intravenous recombinant human endostatin (Rh-endostatin) infusion plus chemotherapy in this population in the first-line setting. METHODS Overall, 43 patients with advanced or recurrent mucosal melanoma treated at Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center between April 2017 and August 2020 were retrospectively included. Patients received dacarbazine plus cisplatin or temozolomide plus cisplatin per the investigators' preference. Rh-endostatin (105 mg/m2) was administered with continuous infusion for 168 h (Civ 168 h). RESULTS Of the 43 patients, 72.1% had metastatic disease, and the most common primary site was the gastrointestinal tract (51.2%). The most commonly observed mutations were NRAS (23.1%), BRAF (7.7%) and CKIT mutations (5.1%). An objective response was observed in 12 (30.0%) of the 40 evaluable patients, and disease control was achieved in 31 (77.5%) patients. With a median follow-up of 17.6 months, the median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 4.9 and 15.3 months, respectively. Additionally, high lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) (p = 0.023, HR 0.29, 95% CI: 0.10-0.84) and BRAF/KIT/RAS mutation (p = 0.028, HR 0.24, 95% CI: 0.07-0.86) were independently correlated with prolonged OS. Toxicity was manageable overall. CONCLUSION Continuous Rh-endostatin infusion plus chemotherapy was effective and safe for the treatment of advanced or recurrent mucosal melanoma. High LMR was correlated with favorable PFS and OS in this patient population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lung cancer is one of the deadliest cancers in the world with the highest incidence and mortality rate among all cancers. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for approximately 80% of primary lung cancer. However, efficacy and safety of the current regimens for NSCLC is unsatisfactory. Therefore, there has been an increasing urgency for development of potential therapeutic therapies for NSCLC.
AIM To investigate the therapeutic outcomes and safety of continuous intravenous infusion of recombinant human endostatin (Rh-endostain) using an infusion pump in retreated advanced NSCLC.
METHODS Patients with retreated advanced NSCLC who were admitted to Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital from October 2017 to April 2019 were recruited. These patients received continuous intravenous infusion of Rh-endostain using an infusion pump. Objective response rate (ORR), clinical benefit rate (CBR), median progression-free survival (mPFS), and incidences of adverse events (AEs) were analyzed after treatment.
RESULTS A total of 45 patients with retreated advanced NSCLC were included, and all of them were evaluated. In these patients, ORR was 22.2%, CBR was 84.4%, and mPFS was 5.3 mo. The following AEs were observed, decreased hemoglobin (34 cases, 75.6%), nausea/vomiting (32 cases, 71.1%), elevated transaminase (24 cases, 53.3%), leukopenia (16 cases, 35.6%), thrombocytopenia (14 cases, 31.1%), and constipation (1 case, 3.4%). None of the patients had leukopenia, nausea /vomiting, and constipation of grade III and above.
CONCLUSION The patients showed improved adherence to 5-d continuous intravenous infusion of Rh-endostain using an infusion pump. Favorable efficacy and safety of this treatment regimen were achieved in retreated advanced NSCLC.

Tumor angiogenesis at baseline identified by 18F-Alfatide II PET/CT may predict survival among patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy. J Transl Med 2022; 20:63. [PMID: 35109866 PMCID: PMC8811991 DOI: 10.1186/s12967-022-03256-3] [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: 07/18/2021] [Accepted: 01/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The study investigated the predictive value of tumor angiogenesis observed by 18F-ALF-NOTA-PRGD2 II (denoted as 18F-Alfatide II) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) before concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for treatment response and survival among patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC). Methods Patients with unresectable stage IIIA or IIIB NSCLC (AJCC Cancer Staging 7th Edition) who received CCRT were included in this prospective study. All patients had undergone 18F-Alfatide PET/CT scanning before CCRT, and analyzed parameters included maximum uptake values (SUVmax) of primary tumor (SUVP) and metastatic lymph nodes (SUVLN) and mean uptake value of blood pool (SUVblood). Tumor-to-background ratios (TBRs) and changes in tumor diameter before and after CCRT (ΔD) were calculated. The ratios of SUVP to SUVblood, SUVLN to SUVblood, and SUVP to SUVLN were denoted as TBRP, TBRLN, and T/LN. Short-term treatment response, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) were evaluated. Results Of 38 enrolled patients, 28 completed CCRT. SUVP, SUVLN, TBRP, TBRLN and T/LN showed significant correlation with PFS (all P < 0.05). SUVP was negatively correlated with OS (P = 0.005). SUVP and TBRP were higher in non-responders than in responders (6.55 ± 2.74 vs. 4.61 ± 1.94, P = 0.039; 10.49 ± 7.58 vs. 7.73 ± 6.09, P = 0.023). ΔD was significantly greater in responders (2.78 ± 1.37) than in non-responders (-0.16 ± 1.33, P < 0.001). Exploratory receiver operating characteristic curve analysis identified TBRP (area under the curve [AUC] = 0.764, P = 0.018), with a cutoff value of 6.52, as the only parameter significantly predictive of the response to CCRT, with sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy values of 71.43%, 78.57%, and 75.00%, respectively. ROC curve analysis also identified SUVP (AUC = 0.942, P < 0.001, cutoff value 4.64) and TBRP (AUC = 0.895, P = 0.001, cutoff value 4.95) as predictive of OS with high sensitivity (84.21%, 93.75%), specificity (100.00%, 66.67%), and accuracy (89.29%, 82.14%). Conclusions Evaluation of tumor angiogenesis by 18F-Alfatide II at baseline may be useful in predicting the short-term response to CCRT as well as PFS and OS in patients with LA-NSCLC.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the efficacy and safety of recombinant human endostatin in combination with radiotherapy (RT) or concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) in patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC). METHODS We searched eligible literature in available databases using combinations of the following search terms: lung cancer, endostatin or endostar, radiotherapy or radiation therapy or chemoradiotherapy. The inclusion criteria were: prospective or retrospective (including single-arm) studies that evaluated the efficacy and safety of endostatin plus radiotherapy (ERT) or concurrent chemoradiotherapy (ECRT) in patients with LA-NSCLC. Primary outcomes included the following: objective response rate (ORR), local control rates (LCR), overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and adverse events (AEs). Tests of heterogeneity, sensitivity, and publication bias were performed. RESULTS A total of 271 patients with LA-NSCLC from 7 studies were enrolled, including six prospective trials and one retrospective study. The pooled median PFS was 11.3 months overall, 11.2 months in the ECRT group, and 11.8 months in the ERT group. Pooled median OS and ORR were 18.9 months and 77.2% overall, 18.4 months and 77.5% in the ECRT group, and 19.6 months and 76.1% in the ERT group, respectively. The incidences of major grade ≥ 3 AEs for all patients, subgroups of ECRT and ERT were 10.9% vs 11.9% vs 9.4% for radiation pneumonitis, 11.6% vs 12.2% vs 9.4% for radiation esophagitis, 35.5% vs 43.4% vs 0 for leukopenia, 27.8% vs 40.7% vs 2.1% for neutropenia, and 10.5% vs 12.3% vs 2.1% for anemia. CONCLUSIONS Combined endostatin with RT or CCRT is effective and well tolerated in treating LA-NSCLC, and less toxicities occur. Further validation through prospective randomized control trials is required.
