Synergistic effect of Abraxane that combines human IL15 fused with an albumin-binding domain on murine models of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. J Cell Mol Med 2022; 26:1955-1968. [PMID: 35174623 PMCID: PMC8980892 DOI: 10.1111/jcmm.17220] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2021] [Revised: 12/17/2021] [Accepted: 01/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Nab‐paclitaxel (Abraxane), which is a nanoparticle form of albumin‐bound paclitaxel, is one of the standard chemotherapies for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). This study determined the effect of Abraxane in combination with a fusion protein, hIL15‐ABD, on subcutaneous Panc02 and orthotopic KPC C57BL/6 murine PDAC models. Abraxane combined with hIL15‐ABD best suppressed tumour growth and produced a 40%–60% reduction in the tumour size for Panc02 and KPC, compared to the vehicle group. In the combination group, the active form of interferon‐γ (IFN‐γ)‐secreting CD8+ T cells and CD11b+CD86+ M1 macrophages in tumour infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) were increased. In the tumour drainage lymph nodes (TDLNs) of the combination group, there was a 18% reduction in CD8+IFN‐γ+ T cells and a 0.47% reduction in CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ regulatory T cells, as opposed to 5.0% and 5.1% reductions, respectively, for the control group. Superior suppression of CD11b+GR‐1+ myeloid‐derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and the induction of M1 macrophages in the spleen and bone marrow of mice were found in the combination group. Abraxane and hIL15‐ABD effectively suppressed NF‐κB‐mediated immune suppressive markers, including indoleamine 2,3‐dioxygenase (IDO), Foxp3 and VEGF. In conclusion, Abraxane combined with hIL15‐ABD stimulates the anticancer activity of effector cells, inhibits immunosuppressive cells within the tumour microenvironment (TME) of PDAC, and produces a greater inhibitory effect than individual monotherapies.

Abstract
Recombinant interleukin-2 (rIL-2) is indicated for metastatic renal cell carcinoma and melanoma. Over recent years low-dose rIL-2 has been studied for the treatment of autoimmune diseases and acute coronary syndrome because of its ability to expand and activate T regulatory (Treg) cells. However, several medical conditions potentially benefiting from rIL-2 administrations are characterized by an intrinsic prothrombotic risk, thus requiring concurrent anticoagulation. In our systematic review of the literature, we investigated the potential for drug interactions between oral anticoagulants and rIL-2 by assessing the influence of rIL-2 administration on transporters and cytochromes determining the pharmacokinetics of (direct) oral anticoagulants. We extracted data from 12 studies, consisting of 11 animal studies and one study in humans. Eight studies investigated the pharmacokinetics of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrates and reported that the intraperitoneal rIL-2 administration may inhibit intestinal P-gp. Four studies on hepatic cytochrome P450 yielded conflicting results. The only human study included in this systematic review concluded that rIL-2 suppresses the hepatic cytochrome P450, but only if given at higher doses. Based on the results from animal studies, the co-administration of rIL-2 and dabigatran etexilate, a substrate of intestinal P-gp, may lead to higher dabigatran plasma concentrations and bioavailability. Human studies should confirm whether this potential interaction is clinically relevant.

Interferon-alpha improves docetaxel antitumoral and antimetastatic efficiency in Lewis lung carcinoma bearing mice. Life Sci 2012; 91:843-51. [PMID: 23047021 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2012.08.027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2012] [Revised: 08/09/2012] [Accepted: 08/27/2012] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
AIMS Interferon-alpha (IFN-α) was shown to reduce P-glycoprotein (P-gp) expression and activity in several tissues. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of IFN-α pretreatment on the antitumoral and antimetastatic, Docetaxel (DTX, P-gp substrate), on Lewis Lung Cancer (3LL) bearing mice and to correlate it to DTX pharmacokinetics. MAIN METHODS Six groups of C57/Bl6 mice received subcutaneous (s.c.) 2.10(6) 3LL cells, then IFN-α 4MIU/kg for 7days, then received or did not receive i.v. or oral DTX (30mg/kg). Pharmacokinetic studies were done on a part of the mice: DTX concentrations were assessed in plasma and tumors, where AUC were estimated with the Bailer method, and half-lives and MRT were determined with a non-compartmental analysis. Tumor growth was assessed more than 21days: animals were then sacrificed and lung metastases number was counted. Kaplan-Meier analysis was made to analyze survival data during the survey period. KEY FINDINGS DTX i.v. associated with IFN-α significantly improved mouse survival (19.6±0.6days vs. 17.1±0.8days for control mice, p=0.047) with greater antimetastatic effects (87.5% reduction in the number of metastases compared to control mice). The effect on tumor growth was not modified within the IFN-α/DTX i.v. treated groups when compared to mice receiving DTX i.v. alone. The pharmacokinetic analysis showed an increase of DTX concentrations in tumors at 30min after DTX i.v. administration and an increase in the oral bioavailability of orally given DTX following an IFN-α treatment. SIGNIFICANCE Our study established that IFN-α increases DTX uptake in tumors, improves its antitumoral efficiency and improves animals' survival.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to examine modifications of anti-tumor activity and toxicity of paclitaxel (PLX) when given p.o. after recombinant interleukin-2 (rIL-2) to Lewis lung carcinoma-bearing mice. PLX was given orally to mice at the dose of 15 mg/kg on day 8 and 30 mg/kg on day 15, either alone or after 16.5 microg of rIL-2 given i.p. twice a day either 1 or 3 days before. The anti-tumor activity was higher and PLX hematological toxicity not increased if orally administered PLX was given after a 3-day rIL-2 pre-treatment rather than if given alone. Lung metastasis was significantly lower and s.c. tumors were smaller in the PLX+rIL-2 group than in the PLX or rIL-2 or non-treated groups. In addition, a decrease in lung P-glycoprotein expression (investigated by Western blot analysis) was observed 1 h after the last administration of rIL-2 on day 7.

Abstract
Multidrug resistance mediated by ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporters such as P-glycoprotein (P-gp) represents a serious problem for the development of effective anticancer drugs. In addition, P-gp has been shown to reduce oral absorption, modulate hepatic, renal, or intestinal elimination, and restrict blood-brain barrier penetration of several drugs. Consequently, there is a great interest in anticipating whether drug candidates are P-gp substrates or inhibitors. In this respect, two different computational models have been developed. A method for discriminating P-gp substrates and nonsubstrates has been set up based on calculated molecular descriptors and multivariate analysis using a training set of 53 diverse drugs. These compounds were previously classified as P-gp substrates or nonsubstrates on the basis of the efflux ratio from Caco-2 permeability measurements. The program Volsurf was used to compute the compounds' molecular descriptors. The descriptors were correlated to the experimental classes using partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLSD). The model was able to predict correctly the behavior of 72% of an external set of 272 proprietary compounds. Thirty of the 53 previously mentioned drugs were also evaluated for P-gp inhibition using a calcein-AM (CAM) assay. On the basis of these additional P-gp functional data, a PLSD analysis using GRIND-pharmacophore-based descriptors was performed to model P-gp substrates having poor or no inhibitory activity versus inhibitors having no evidence of significant transport. The model was able to discriminate between 69 substrates and 56 inhibitors taken from the literature with an average accuracy of 82%. The model allowed also the identification of some key molecular features that differentiate a substrate from an inhibitor, which should be taken into consideration in the design of new candidate drugs. These two models can be implemented in a virtual screening funnel.
