[PMID: 39107816 PMCID: PMC11304617 DOI: 10.1186/s12920-024-01967-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/29/2024] [Accepted: 07/22/2024] [Indexed: 08/10/2024] Open
Abstract
The impact of efferocytosis-related genes (ERGs) on the diagnosis of colorectal cancer (CRC) remains unclear. In this study, efferocytosis-associated biomarkers for the diagnosis of CRC were identified by integrating data from transcriptome sequencing and public databases. Finally, the expression of biomarkers was validated by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Our study may provide a reference for CRC diagnosis. BACKGROUND It has been shown that some efferocytosis related genes (ERGs) are associated with the development of cancer. However, it is still uncertain how ERGs may influence the diagnosis of colorectal cancer (CRC). METHODS In our study, the CRC cohorts were gained from transcriptome sequencing and the gene expression omnibus (GEO) database (GSE71187). Efferocytosis related biomarkers with diagnostic utility for CRC were identified through combining differentially expressed analysis, machine learning algorithms, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. Then, infiltration abundance of immune cells between CRC and control was evaluated. The regulatory networks (including mRNA-miRNA-lncRNA and miRNA/transcription factors (TF)-mRNA networks) were created. Finally, the expression of biomarkers was validated via real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). RESULTS There were 3 biomarkers (ELMO3, P2RY12, and PDK4) related diagnosis for CRC patients gained. ELMO3 was highly expressed in CRC group, while P2RY12 and PDK4 was lowly expressed. Besides, the infiltrating abundance of 3 immune cells between CRC and control groups was significantly differential, namely activated CD4 memory T cells, macrophages M0, and resting mast cells. We then constructed a mRNA-miRNA-lncRNA network containing 3 mRNAs, 33 miRNAs, and 22 lncRNAs, and a miRNA/TF-mRNA network including 3 mRNAs, 33 miRNAs, and 7 TFs. Additionally, RT-qPCR results revealed that the expression trends of all biomarkers were consistent with the transcriptome sequencing data and GSE71187. CONCLUSION Taken together, this study provides three efferocytosis related biomarkers (ELMO3, P2RY12, and PDK4) for diagnosis of CRC, providing a scientific reference for further studies of CRC.

Real-world outcome of crizotinib for anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive lung cancer: Multicenter retrospective analysis in South Korea. Thorac Cancer 2024; 15:448-457. [PMID: 38171544 PMCID: PMC10883859 DOI: 10.1111/1759-7714.15213] [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: 11/06/2023] [Accepted: 12/18/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND About 3%-5% of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) presents positive anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK). Recently, several target agents have been approved as a treatment for ALK-positive NSCLC. This study aimed to analyze the real-world efficacy and outcome when administered crizotinib, the first approved target agent for ALK-positive NSCLC, according to first- or late-line treatment. METHODS A total of 290 patients with ALK-positive advanced NSCLC who were treated with crizotinib in 15 institutions in South Korea from January 2009 to December 2018 were enrolled. RESULTS The median age of patients was 57.0 years, and 50.3% were male. The median follow-up duration was 29.3 months. Among them, 113 patients received crizotinib as first-line therapy. The objective response rate (ORR) was 60.1% (57.0% for first-line recipients, 61.8% for second-/later-line). Median (95% CI) progression-free survival (PFS) was 13.7 (11.6-17.0) months. For first-line recipients, overall survival (OS) was 26.3 (17.6-35.0) months. No significant difference in ORR, PFS and OS, according to the setting of crizotinib initiation, was observed. In a multivariate Cox regression analysis, old age, male gender, initially metastatic, and number of metastatic organs were associated with poor PFS and OS. The most common adverse events were nausea and vomiting, and severe adverse event leading to dose adjustment was hepatotoxicity. CONCLUSIONS ORR, PFS, OS, and adverse event profiles were comparable to previous clinical trials. Our findings could aid in the efficient management of ALK-positive lung cancer patients.

Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:4940. [PMID: 37894307 PMCID: PMC10605921 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15204940] [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: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 10/08/2023] [Accepted: 10/09/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Lung cancers with ALK rearrangement represent less than 5% of all lung cancers. ALK inhibitors are currently used to treat first-line metastatic non-small cell lung cancer with ALK rearrangement. Compared to chemotherapy, ALK inhibitors have improved progression-free survival, overall survival, and quality of life for patients. The results of several phase 3 studies with a follow-up of over 6 years suggest that the life expectancy of these patients treated with targeted therapies is significantly higher than 5 years and could approach 10 years. Nevertheless, these treatments induce haematological toxicities, including neutropenia. Few data are available on neutropenia induced by ALK inhibitors and on the pathophysiological mechanism and therapeutic adaptations necessary to continue the treatment. Given the high efficacy of these treatments, managing side effects to avoid treatment interruptions is essential. Here, we have reviewed the data from published clinical studies and case reports to provide an overview of neutropenia induced by ALK inhibitors.

Abstract
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide, with the majority consisting of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Genetic mutations present an opportunity for targeted therapy, in addition to current mainstay treatments such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Overall, 5% of NSCLCs have an anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) mutation, often prevalent in a younger population. Crizotinib is an ALK inhibitor that was approved to treat ALK-mutated advanced NSCLC. While common side effects such as nausea, fatigue, and diarrhea are mostly well tolerated, adverse side effects can lead to treatment discontinuation or adjustment or can be fatal. This systematic review used articles searched on Google Scholar and PubMed which were assessed using the Cochrane risk-of-bias tool and Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. This yielded nine papers consisting of randomized controlled trials and cohort studies. Side effects resulting in cessation of treatment or dose reduction included liver dysfunction, nausea, neutropenia, and QT prolongation. This review showed that crizotinib has a better side effect profile than chemotherapy in ALK-positive NSCLC, even though toxicities leading to treatment withdrawal are present. Adverse effects were tackled by dose reduction, temporary withdrawal from treatment, and close monitoring.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the incidence of ALK translocations in patients with advanced/metastatic NSCLC in Spain, to describe the clinical characteristics of these patients, and to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of treatment with crizotinib in a real-world setting. METHODS This is an observational prospective and retrospective cohort study to determine the incidence of ALK translocations and to analyze the effectiveness and safety of crizotinib in a real-world setting. Patient characteristics, treatment patterns, time to best overall response, duration of treatment, objective response rates (ORR), rates of adverse events (AE), progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were evaluated in the ALK study cohort of patients treated with crizotinib (prospective and retrospective). ALK incidence and quality of life (QoL) questionnaires were measured from patients included in the prospective cohort. RESULTS The incidence of ALK translocations was 5.5 % (31 of 559 patients). Compared with ALK-negative patients, ALK-positive patients were significantly younger, predominantly female, and non-smokers. In the crizotinib effectiveness and safety study, 91 patients (42 prospective, 49 retrospective) with ALK-positive NSCLC (43.9 % in first-line, 56.1 % in second or more lines) were included. The ORR was 59.3 % and the median duration of response was 13.5 months (IQR, 5.3-26.2). The median PFS was 15.8 months (95 % CI, 11.8-22.3) and the median OS was 46.5 months, with 53 patients (58.2 %) still alive at data cut-off date. Frequently reported AEs included elevated transaminases, gastrointestinal disorders, and asthenia. Most patients (76.5 %) reported improved or stable scores for global QoL during treatment. CONCLUSIONS The observed incidence of ALK translocations in NSCLC patients is aligned with published reports. This analysis of the real-world clinical experience in Spain confirms the therapeutic benefit and safety of crizotinib in advanced/metastatic ALK-positive NSCLC. CLINICALTRIALS gov: NCT02679170.

Abstract
Background Activation of ALK leads to a high level of aerobic glycolysis related to crizotinib insensitivity in anaplastic lymphoma kinase‐positive non‐small cell lung cancer (ALK+ NSCLC). The strategy and mechanism of glycolysis inhibition in sensitizing ALK+ NSCLC cells to crizotinib requires further investigation. Methods The levels of glycolysis in H3122 and H2228 cells were evaluated through detection of glucose consumption and lactate production. MTT assay was used to explore the effects of glycolytic inhibitors on crizotinib sensitivity, and the potential mechanism of action were detected by colony formation, Ki67 incorporation assay, transwell assay, small interfering RNA technology and western blot analysis. Results ALK+ NSCLC cells exhibited significantly higher levels of glycolysis compared to ALK− NSCLC cells. Long‐term exposure to crizotinib could decrease the sensitivity of ALK+ NSCLC cells to crizotinib via increasing the levels of glycolysis related to hexokinases II (HK2). Crizotinib in combination with glycolysis inhibitor 2‐deoxy‐D‐glucose (2DG) synergistically inhibited proliferation, glycolysis, colony formation and invasion ability of ALK+ NSCLC cells. 2DG sensitization crizotinib might be associated with the inhibition of HK2‐mediated glycolysis and P‐ALK/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway in H3122 and H2228 cells. Conclusions These results indicate that HK2‐mediated glycolysis plays a crucial role in the increased tolerance of ALK+ NSCLC cells to crizotinib. 2DG may sensitize ALK+ NSCLC to crizotinib via suppression of HK2‐mediated glycolysis and the AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.

Abstract
AIM To clarify the clinicopathological features in elderly anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) rearranged non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective study was performed in 129 ALK rearranged NSCLC patients diagnosed between April 2008 and March 2019 in fifteen Institutions of the Ibaraki prefecture, Japan. RESULTS Median age of patients was 63 years. In 59 patients aged 65 and older, the proportions of patients with advanced stage and those treated with ALK-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) were lower than those younger than 65 years. There was no difference in overall survival (OS) between the two age groups. Among the elderly patients, no difference was observed in OS between the patients aged 65-69 and those aged 70 and older. In 89 patients treated with TKI, no significant differences were observed in the progression-free survival of TKIs and OS between patients aged 65 and older and those younger than 65, respectively. CONCLUSION Evaluation of ALK gene status and TKI treatment are desirable even for elderly patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Transforming anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene rearrangements are well known as a unique subset of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with mutations other than EGFR. Currently, crizotinib is the standard first-line treatment for ALK-positive NSCLC. MATERIALS AND METHODS With advances in detection methods, more and more uncommon ALK fusion partners have been identified. Herein we present a novel SOS1-ALK fusion and the efficacy of crizotinib in an advanced NSCLC patient harboring this type of fusion. RESULTS A 52-year-old Chinese man had left upper lobe primary NSCLC and synchronous multiple lung metastases (cT2N3M1, stage IV). The ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration cytology of palpable left supraclavicular lymph nodes and the results of immunohistochemistry staining supported the diagnosis of metastatic lung adenocarcinoma. Using a next-generation sequencing assay (NGS), we showed that the tumor had a SOS1-ALK fusion which the breakpoints was (S2, A20) rather than other actionable mutations. Therefore, the patient received first-line crizotinib and experienced a remarkable tumor response and has tolerated crizotinib well until this writing. CONCLUSION Considering this rare SOS1-ALK fusion and remarkable response to an ALK-inhibitor, it is important to be aware of the presence of SOS1-ALK fusions in patients with advanced NSCLC to better guide targeted therapy. Precision methods, such as NGS for oncogenic alteration detection, should also be encouraged in clinical practice.
