Abstract
Recent single-arm studies involving neoadjuvant camrelizumab, a PD-1 inhibitor, plus chemotherapy for resectable locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (LA-ESCC) have shown promising results. This multicenter, randomized, open-label phase 3 trial aimed to further assess the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant camrelizumab plus chemotherapy followed by adjuvant camrelizumab, compared to neoadjuvant chemotherapy alone. A total of 391 patients with resectable thoracic LA-ESCC (T1b-3N1-3M0 or T3N0M0) were stratified by clinical stage (I/II, III or IVA) and randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to undergo two cycles of neoadjuvant therapy. Treatments included camrelizumab, albumin-bound paclitaxel and cisplatin (Cam+nab-TP group; n = 132); camrelizumab, paclitaxel and cisplatin (Cam+TP group; n = 130); and paclitaxel with cisplatin (TP group; n = 129), followed by surgical resection. Both the Cam+nab-TP and Cam+TP groups also received adjuvant camrelizumab. The dual primary endpoints were the rate of pathological complete response (pCR), as evaluated by a blind independent review committee, and event-free survival (EFS), as assessed by investigators. This study reports the final analysis of pCR rates. In the intention-to-treat population, the Cam+nab-TP and Cam+TP groups exhibited significantly higher pCR rates of 28.0% and 15.4%, respectively, compared to 4.7% in the TP group (Cam+nab-TP versus TP: difference 23.5%, 95% confidence interval (CI) 15.1-32.0, P < 0.0001; Cam+TP versus TP: difference 10.9%, 95% CI 3.7-18.1, P = 0.0034). The study met its primary endpoint of pCR; however, EFS is not yet mature. The incidence of grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse events during neoadjuvant treatment was 34.1% for the Cam+nab-TP group, 29.2% for the Cam+TP group and 28.8% for the TP group; the postoperative complication rates were 34.2%, 38.8% and 32.0%, respectively. Neoadjuvant camrelizumab plus chemotherapy demonstrated superior pCR rates compared to chemotherapy alone for LA-ESCC, with a tolerable safety profile.

Abstract
Structural modification based on existing drugs, which ensures the safety of marketed drugs, is an essential approach in developing new drugs. In this study, we modified the structure of cabotegravir by introducing the front alkyne on the core structure through chemical reaction, resulting in the synthesis of 9 compounds resembling 1,2,3-triazoles. The potential of these new cabotegravir derivatives as tumor suppressors in gastrointestinal tumors was investigated. Based on the MTT experiment, most compounds showed a reduction in the viability of KYSE30 and HCT116 cells. Notably, derivatives 5b and 5h exhibited the most significant inhibitory effects. To further explore the effects of derivatives 5b and 5h on gastrointestinal tumors, KYSE30 cells were chosen as a representative cell line. Both derivatives can effectively curtail the migration and invasion capabilities of KYSE30 cells and induce apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner. We further demonstrated these derivatives induce cell apoptosis in KYSE30 cells by inhibiting the expression of Stat3 protein and Smad2/3 protein. Based on the above results, we suggest they show promise in developing drugs for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

Abstract
Esophageal cancer is considered one of the most significant challenges to public health worldwide. While various therapeutic options exist for esophageal cancer, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery, several adverse effects of these medications have been reported. Therefore, a new generation of therapeutic lines should be applied to minimize complications. In this regard, immunotherapy is a novel approach that aims to kill tumor cells directly by targeting them. Specifically, monoclonal antibodies can target specific markers of esophageal cancer tumor cells, keeping other normal cells safe. Multiple monoclonal antibodies optimized for esophageal cancer, such as pembrolizumab, ramucirumab, trastuzumab, nivolumab, and ipilimumab, are available. On the other hand, esophageal cancer tumor cells express a specific inhibitory ligand and its receptor called programmed cell death, which can suppress T cell immune responses. This receptor provides an inhibitory signal, causing the highest expression of the PD-L1 ligand on tumor cells. The outcomes of this interaction lead to the suppression of the activation and function of T lymphocytes. Therefore, immunotherapy for esophageal cancer targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway has shown a remarkable correlation with cancer care. This study presents a comprehensive review of the latest findings related to immunotherapy in esophageal cancer.

Abstract
RATIONALE Pure squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the gallbladder is a rare malignant biliary tract tumor predominantly found in the body and neck of the gallbladder. However, its occurrence in the cystic duct is even rarer. Given its rarity, no established guidelines or consensus currently exist regarding the treatment of pure SCC of the gallbladder. We report an unusual case of SCC originating from the cystic duct with the intent of providing insights into the therapeutic approach for this type of malignancy. PATIENT CONCERNS A male patient presented to our hospital with acute cholecystitis. Unexpectedly, imaging revealed gallbladder malignancy. DIAGNOSES Pathologic examination after surgery confirmed SCC of the cystic duct. INTERVENTIONS Despite elevated bilirubin levels, we were able to exclude hilar involvement, enabling radical tumor resection. Intraoperatively, we discovered that the tumor was located in the cystic duct, a site associated with a high likelihood of invasion into neighboring organs. The tumor demonstrated a predominantly exophytic growth pattern, which prompted us to refrain from extending the resection range, thereby striking a balance between complete tumor removal and surgical trauma. We performed liver wedge resection only to ensure a negative resection margin while preserving the anatomical structure to the greatest extent possible. Postoperative recovery was rapid and uncomplicated. Pathological examination confirmed pure SCC, which led us to initiate a regimen of nab-paclitaxel and cisplatin, which is known to be effective in other organ SCCs. Remarkably, the patient experienced a rare and severe posttreatment cardiovascular event. Consequently, we switched the patient to a chemotherapy regimen of gemcitabine and cisplatin, which ultimately yielded positive clinical outcomes. OUTCOMES no evidence of tumor recurrence was observed within 1 year after surgery. LESSONS The diagnosis and therapeutic strategy for rare tumors such as gallbladder SCC should be meticulously tailored based on their unique characteristics to optimize postoperative patient outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND PD-1 inhibitor and chemotherapy demonstrated durable antitumor activity with a manageable safety profile as the first-line treatment in patients with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). The present study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of PD-1 inhibitors plus different dose intensity neoadjuvant chemotherapy in the treatment of locally advanced ESCC. METHODS Patients with locally advanced but resectable thoracic ESCC, staged as T3 or T4a, N0-3, and M0 or M1 lymph node metastasis (confined to the supraclavicular lymph nodes), were enrolled in this study. The eligible patients received tislelizumab plus different dose intensity chemotherapy for a 21-day cycle with repeated 2-4 cycles before surgery. The primary endpoints are pathological complete response (pCR) and major pathological response (MPR), and the secondary endpoints are objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), and disease-free survival (DFS). RESULTS From November 2019 to February 2022, 122 cases received at least two cycles neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy and were evaluated by imaging examination. Subsequently, 99 patients underwent surgery and were evaluated by pathological evaluation. According to chemotherapy dose intensity, the patients were divided into three cohorts: cohort 1 (<80% dose intensity), cohort 2 (80-90% dose intensity), cohort 3 (90-100% dose intensity). All surgery patients underwent minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE). The average pCR was identified in 22.22%; 16% had pCR in cohort 1, 17.65% had pCR in cohort 2, and 30.00% had pCR in cohort 3. MPR was observed in 9 (36.00%) patients in cohort 1, 18 (52.94%) patients in cohort 2, 22 (55.00%) patients in cohort 3. In univariable and multivariable analysis, dose intensity was significantly associated with MPR (p = 0.048) in patients who underwent esophagectomy. For surviving patients, the median follow-up was 13.76 months after esophagectomy. Compared to cohort 1, cohorts 2 and 3 had better DFS (p = 0.056). In addition, the prognosis of patients with MPR was better than that of patients without MPR (p = 0.014). CONCLUSIONS The robust antitumor activity of neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy for locally advanced but resectable thoracic ESCC was confirmed. More than 80% of chemotherapy dose intensity combined with immunotherapy resulted in a high pCR rate and prolonged DFS.

Abstract
Immunotherapy is a new treatment option for patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). However, no study has investigated the efficacy and safety of sintilimab combined with nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (Nab-PTX) and platinum as first-line treatment for metastatic ESCC. In this retrospective study, eligible patients with metastatic ESCC were administered sintilimab plus Nab-PTX, cisplatin, or nedaplatin for up to 4 to 6 cycles. Subsequently, patients without progressive disease (PD) continued to receive sintilimab every 3 weeks as maintenance treatment until unacceptable toxicity, PD, withdrawal of consent, or for up to 2 years. The primary endpoint was the objective response rate (ORR) and the secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), disease control rate (DCR), and safety. A total of 22 patients diagnosed with metastatic ESCC were enrolled, 1 patient reached a complete response (CR), 15 patients achieved a partial response (PR), 4 patients had stable disease, and 2 had PD. The ORR was 72.7% (16/22) and the DCR was 90.9% (20/22). The time to response was 1.9 months (95% confidence interval [CI]:1.7-2.2 months). The median PFS was 8.9 months (95% CI, 7.1-10.7 months), and the median OS was 19.0 months. Exploratory biomarker analysis revealed that lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) was a potential marker for OS, and patients with high LDH levels had shorter mOS (13.0 months, 95% CI:7.5-18.5 months). Treatment-related adverse events (AEs) occurred in 21 patients (95.5%), most of which were grade 1 or 2. No treatment-related deaths occurred in this study. The results of this study suggested that sintilimab combined with Nab-PTX and platinum in patients with metastatic ESCC had a significantly high ORR and encouraging mPFS and mOS. LDH was a potential marker for OS, and the safety profile was manageable.

[PMID: 37509639 PMCID: PMC10377238 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines11072000] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2023] [Revised: 07/03/2023] [Accepted: 07/10/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Taxanes (paclitaxel and docetaxel) are one of the most useful classes of anticancer drugs. Taxanes are highly hydrophobic; therefore, these drugs must be dissolved in organic solvents (polysorbate or Cremophor EL), which contribute to their toxicities. To reduce this toxicity and to enhance their efficacy, novel formulations have been developed. Nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-paclitaxel) is an albumin-stabilized, Cremophor-free, and water-soluble nanoparticle formulation of paclitaxel. Nab-paclitaxel has better solubility and less infusion-associated toxicity compared to solvent-based paclitaxel. Additionally, nab-paclitaxel can be given at higher doses and concentrations compared with solvent-based paclitaxel. Based on its superior clinical efficacy and safety profile, nab-paclitaxel received FDA approval for metastatic breast cancer (2008) and NSCLC (2011). Among gastrointestinal cancers, it is now approved in the USA for treating patients with metastatic adenocarcinoma of the pancreas as first-line therapy in combination with gemcitabine. Furthermore, several clinical trials have suggested the potential efficacy of nab-paclitaxel as a single agent or in combination with other agents for the treatment of metastatic esophageal, gastric, bowel, and biliary tract cancers. Nab-paclitaxel has been demonstrated to have greater overall response rates (ORR) with enhanced progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and a superior safety profile with fewer adverse effects in patients with gastrointestinal tract cancers. This review summarizes the advantages associated with nab-paclitaxel-based regimens in terms of improving clinical efficacy and the safety profile in upper gastrointestinal cancer.

Phase I study of cisplatin and nanoparticle albumin-bound-paclitaxel combined with concurrent radiotherapy in locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Cancer Med 2023; 12:15187-15198. [PMID: 37334881 PMCID: PMC10417080 DOI: 10.1002/cam4.6205] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2023] [Revised: 05/04/2023] [Accepted: 05/23/2023] [Indexed: 06/21/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND This phase I study aimed to assess the safety, dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and preliminary effect of nanoparticle albumin-bound (nab)-paclitaxel in combination with concurrent chemoradiotherapy in patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). METHODS Patients with locally advanced ESCC who were ineligible or refused surgery were enrolled. Nab-paclitaxel (60 mg/m2 , 75 mg/m2 , and 90 mg/m2 ) and cisplatin (25 mg/m2 ) were administered intravenously weekly on days 1, 8, 15, 22, and 29 on the basis of the 3 + 3 dose escalation method. The total dose of radiation was 50-64 Gy. The primary endpoint was the safety of chemotherapy. RESULTS The study enrolled 12 patients across three dose levels. No treatment-related deaths occurred. One patient in the 60 mg/m2 dose level occurred dose-limiting Grade 3 febrile neutropenia. No DLT was found in the 90 mg/m2 dose level thus the MTD was not reached. The phase II study's recommended dose was 75 mg/m2 based on the available preclinical and clinical data including pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, efficacy, and toxicity. The frequent hematologic toxicities were leukocytopenia (Grade 1-2 of 66.7% and Grade 3-4 of 33.3%), neutropenia (Grade 1-2 of 91.7% and Grade 3-4 of 8.3%). Nonhematologic toxicities were mild and manageable. Overall response rate (ORR) of all patients achieved 100%. CONCLUSIONS Weekly schedule of cisplatin and nab-paclitaxel in combination with concurrent radiotherapy showed manageable toxicities and promising antitumor activity in patients with locally advanced ESCC. The recommended dose of nab-paclitaxel for further studies is 75 mg/m2 .

Efficacy of albumin-bound paclitaxel combined with nedaplatin in neoadjuvant therapy for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma: A single-center retrospective observational study. Medicine (Baltimore) 2023; 102:e33157. [PMID: 36862884 PMCID: PMC9981396 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000033157] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 03/04/2023] Open
Abstract
This study was designed to observe the efficacy and safety of albumin-bound paclitaxel plus nedaplatin as neoadjuvant therapy in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). From April 2019 to Dec 2020, patients with ESCC who underwent Mckeown surgery at our center were analyzed retrospectively. All patient received 2 to 3 cycles of albumin-bound paclitaxel combined with nedaplatin before surgery, tumor regression grade (TRG) and American National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria version 5.0 were used to evaluate its efficacy and safety. TRG grades from TRG 2 to TRG 5are considered effective in chemotherapy, TRG 1 stands for pathological complete response (pCR). A total of 41 patients were included in this study. All patients achieved R0 resection. According to the TRG classification, the number of patients assessed for TRG 1-TRG 5 were: 7 cases, 12 cases, 3 case, 12 cases and 7 cases. Its objective response rate and pCR were 82.9% (34/41) and 17.1% (7/41), respectively. We found that hematological toxicity is the most common adverse events of this regimen, with an incidence of 24.4%, followed by digestive tract reactions, with an incidence of 17.1%. Hair loss, neurotoxicity and hepatological disorder are the others, their incidence was 12.2%, 7.3%, and 2.4%; and chemotherapy related deaths were no found. Notably, 7 patients achieved pCR without recurrence or death. Survival analysis showed that patients with pCR may have longer disease-free survival (P = .085) and overall survival (P = .273), although the difference was not statistically significant. As neoadjuvant therapy for patients with ESCC, albumin-bound paclitaxel combined with nedaplatin has a higher pCR rate and less side effects. It is a reliable choice for ESCC patients as neoadjuvant therapy.

Comparison of neoadjuvant nab-paclitaxel plus immunotherapy versus paclitaxel plus immunotherapy for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Thorac Cancer 2023; 14:700-708. [PMID: 36788648 PMCID: PMC9981310 DOI: 10.1111/1759-7714.14795] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2022] [Revised: 12/26/2022] [Accepted: 12/28/2022] [Indexed: 02/16/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to compare the feasibility of nab-paclitaxel plus platinum-based chemotherapy (nabTP) versus paclitaxel plus platinum-based chemotherapy (TP) with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) as a neoadjuvant modality for locally resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). METHODS Between April 2019 and March 2022, we identified ESCC patients who received neoadjuvant immunotherapy with both nabTP (n = 213) and TP (n = 98) at our institution and Henan Cancer Hospital. The patients in the ICIs-nabTP and ICIs-TP groups were pair-matched (1:1) for tumor location, sex, smoking, drinking, clinical T and N stage. The primary endpoint was the hazard of 30-day major postoperative complications. Second, logistic models were applied to estimate the risk factors for pathological complete response (pCR) rate. RESULTS All patients underwent esophagectomy with R0 resection. A statistically significant increase in the risk of developing major pulmonary (odds ratio [OR], 1.182; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.530-2.635; p = 0.683), anastomotic (OR, 1.881; 95% CI: 0.607-5.830; p = 0.267), cardiac (OR, 1.000; 95% CI: 0.426-2.349; p = 1.000) complications after neoadjuvant immunotherapy plus nabTP was not observed. The median interval to surgery was 39 days in the ICIs-nabTP group versus 44 days in the ICIs-TP group (p = 0.119). There was no 30-day mortality in each group. However, there was a slight difference in the 30-day readmission rate (p = 0.043) and the incidence of hydropneumothorax (p = 0.027) between the two groups. The pCR rates of the ICIs-nabTP and ICIs-TP group were 36.7 and 21.4%, respectively (p = 0.018). CONCLUSIONS It appears to be feasible to add immunotherapy to nabTP regimen for locally advanced ESCC. Compared with TP, nabTP plus ICIs can achieve a better pCR rate in ESCC.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION There is currently no consensus on the optimal chemotherapy regimen in the palliative first-line setting for East Asian patients with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). AREAS COVERED We conducted a systematic review using a literature search of PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library without date restrictions, and abstracts from major oncology congresses. Studies meeting the following criteria were included: East Asian patients ≥18 years old with pathologically proven metastatic or locally advanced unresectable ESCC; first-line chemotherapy; reporting of overall survival, progression-free survival, duration of response, overall response rate, and/or safety; randomized controlled trials, non-randomized controlled trials, and prospective or retrospective comparative studies. In total, 39 articles were identified for the following regimens: platinum plus fluoropyrimidine (n=9), platinum plus taxane (n=16), platinum plus fluoropyrimidine plus taxane (n=7), platinum plus fluoropyrimidine plus other (n=3), irinotecan plus platinum (n=2), taxane plus fluoropyrimidine (n=1). EXPERT OPINION The available data supports both taxane plus platinum regimens and fluoropyrimidine plus platinum regimens in the first-line treatment of East Asian patients with ESCC. Compared with data from doublet chemotherapy studies, triplet chemotherapy appeared to improve ORR, but did not seem to prolong OS, possibly due to an increased incidence of adverse events.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinical benefit of neoadjuvant immunotherapy in resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). remains unclear. This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of the programmed death 1 (PD-1) inhibitor tislelizumab combined with chemotherapy as neoadjuvant therapy in patients with resectable ESCC. METHODS Treatment-naïve patients were enrolled and eligible patients received 3 cycles of neoadjuvant therapy with tislelizumab, carboplatin, and nab-paclitaxel. The primary endpoint was surgery patients major pathological response (MPR). Subgroup analysis was stratified by tumor downstaging, circumferential resection margin (CRM), PD-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression, and tumor mutation burden (TMB). Safety was assessed by adverse events (AEs) and postoperative complications. RESULTS Between September 2020 and March 2021, 45 patients were enrolled. Thirty-six (80.0%) of 45 patients underwent surgery, and 29 (80.5%) underwent successful R0 resection. MPR and pathological complete response (pCR) for surgery patients were 72.0% and 50.0%, respectively. Intention to treatment (ITT) patients MPR and PCR were 57.5% and 40%. Downgrading occurred in 75% of 36 patients. MPR and pCR were identified to be associated with tumor downstaging and CRM but not PD-L1 expression or TMB. TPS levels in MPR and pCR group were significantly higher than that in Non-MPR and Non-pCR group, respectively. Treatment-related AEs of grade 3-4 and immune-related AEs occurred in 42.2% and 22.2% of 45 patients, respectively, and postoperative complications occurred in 77.8% of 36 patients. No treatment-related surgical delay or death occurred. No associations between gene mutation and pathological efficacy were observed. CONCLUSIONS Tislelizumab plus chemotherapy as neoadjuvant therapy demonstrates promising antitumor activity for resectable ESCC with high rates of MPR, pCR, and R0 resection, as well as acceptable tolerability.

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
Taxanes (paclitaxel and docetaxel) play an important role in the treatment of advanced sarcomas. Albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-paclitaxel) is a new kind of taxane and has many advantages compared with paclitaxel and docetaxel. Nab-paclitaxel is currently approved for the treatment of advanced breast, non-small cell lung, and pancreatic cancers. However, the efficacy of nab-paclitaxel in sarcomas has not been reviewed. In this review, we first compare the similarities and differences among nab-paclitaxel, paclitaxel, and docetaxel and then summarize the efficacy of nab-paclitaxel against various non-sarcoma malignancies based on clinical trials with reported results. The efficacy and clinical research progress on nab-paclitaxel in sarcomas are also summarized. This review will serve as a good reference for the application of nab-paclitaxel in clinical sarcoma treatment studies and the design of clinical trials.

Yan MH, Liu F, Qu BL, Cai BN, Yu W, Dai XK. Induction chemotherapy with albumin-bound paclitaxel plus lobaplatin followed by concurrent radiochemotherapy for locally advanced esophageal cancer. World J Gastrointest Oncol 2021; 13:1781-1790. [PMID: 34853650 PMCID: PMC8603460 DOI: 10.4251/wjgo.v13.i11.1781] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2021] [Revised: 07/18/2021] [Accepted: 08/23/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Albumin-bound paclitaxel (ABP) has been used as second- and higher-line treatments for advanced esophageal cancer, and its efficacy and safety have been well demonstrated. Lobaplatin (LBP) is a third-generation platinum antitumor agent; compared with the first two generations of platinum agents, it has lower toxicity and has been approved for the treatment of breast cancer, small cell lung cancer, and chronic granulocytic leukemia. However, its role in the treatment of esophageal cancer warrants further investigations.
AIM To investigate the efficacy and safety of induction chemotherapy with ABP plus LBP followed by concurrent radiochemotherapy (RCT) for locally advanced esophageal cancer.
METHODS Patients with pathologically confirmed advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) at our hospital were enrolled in this study. All patients were treated with two cycles of induction chemotherapy with ABP plus LBP followed by concurrent RCT: ABP 250 mg/m2, ivgtt, 30 min, d1, every 3 wk; and LBP, 30 mg/m2, ivgtt, 2 h, d1, every 3 wk. A total of four cycles were scheduled. The dose of the concurrent radiotherapy was 56-60 Gy/28-30 fractions, 1.8-2.0 Gy/fraction, and 5 fractions/wk.
RESULTS A total of 29 patients were included, and 26 of them completed the treatment protocol. After the induction chemotherapy, the objective response rate (ORR) was 61.54%, the disease control rate (DCR) was 88.46%, and the progressive disease (PD) rate was 11.54%; after the concurrent RCT, the ORR was 76.92%, the DCR was 88.46%, and the PD rate was 11.54%. The median progression-free survival was 11.1 mo and the median overall survival was 15.83 mo. Cox multivariate analysis revealed that two cycles of induction chemotherapy followed by concurrent RCT significantly reduced the risk of PD compared with two cycles of chemotherapy alone (P = 0.0024). Non-hematologic toxicities were tolerable, and the only grade 3 non-hematologic toxicity was radiation-induced esophagitis (13.79%). The main hematologic toxicity was neutropenia, and no grade 4 adverse event occurred.
CONCLUSION Induction chemotherapy with ABP plus LBP followed by concurrent RCT is effective in patients with locally advanced ESCC, with mild adverse effects. Thus, this protocol is worthy of clinical promotion and application.

Fluoroscopy-Guided Salvage Photodynamic Therapy Combined with Nanoparticle Albumin-Bound Paclitaxel for Locally Advanced Esophageal Cancer after Chemoradiotherapy: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Abstract
Background: Among the total cancer deaths, esophageal cancer ranks sixth in mortality. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy remain the main treatments for unresectable, locally advanced esophageal cancer, but a relapse and drug resistance are still common. The optimized choice for therapeutic schemes with low toxicity and a high quality of life is unclear when local progression occurs after radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Fluoroscopy-guided photodynamic therapy (PDT) on patients with recurrent esophageal cancer in whom the endoscope cannot pass may be used as a salvage treatment, and nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (Nab-P) has been shown to be effective for advanced esophageal cancer. The combination of PDT and Nab-P might be an effective and tolerable option for advanced esophageal cancer. Case summary: The authors present a 65-year-old male patient diagnosed with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and confirmed to have developed local progression after receiving radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Severe esophageal stenosis, mild malnutrition and anemia, and radiation pneumonia were found when he was admitted to the authors' hospital. For rapid reduction of tumor burden and to restore normal diet, he received PDT by the X-ray fluoroscopy positioning method and Nab-P chemotherapy. The patient obtained clinical benefit from these treatments, and his quality of life improved. Conclusions: This case demonstrates the potential advantages of fluoroscopy-guided PDT combined with Nab-P in reducing the tumor load, preserving organ function, and improving the quality of life, as well as the beneficial effect on locally advanced esophageal cancer after radiotherapy and chemotherapy. This combination therapy provides an alternative for the clinical treatment of locally advanced esophageal cancer and it has broad prospects in treatment of the disease. Core tip: Herein, the authors report a case of a patient with ESCC who suffered locally progressive disease after chemotherapy and radiotherapy as well as malnutrition and mild anemia because of feeding difficulties. The patient was treated with PDT, which was assisted by a new positioning technique of X-ray fluoroscopy and Nab-P chemotherapy, and finally achieved clinical benefits. In addition, a modified transnasal feeding tube was also applied in the process of fluoroscopy-guided PDT in this article.

Nal-IRI/LV5-FU versus paclitaxel as second-line therapy in patients with metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (OESIRI)-PRODIGE 62: A multicentre, randomised, non-comparative phase II study. Dig Liver Dis 2020; 52:347-350. [PMID: 31899122 DOI: 10.1016/j.dld.2019.11.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2019] [Revised: 11/17/2019] [Accepted: 11/18/2019] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Half of patients newly diagnosed with esophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC) have metastatic disease (mESCC) and therefore a poor prognosis. Furthermore, half of patients with initial loco-regional disease present disease recurrence after surgery and/or chemoradiation. In mESCC, the recommended first-line treatment combines 5-fluorouracil and cisplatin, although this has not been validated by a phase III trial. Patients with disease progression or recurrence after platinum-based chemotherapy and good performance status probably benefit from second-line chemotherapy. Several molecules have been evaluated in phase I/II trials or retrospective studies (docetaxel, paclitaxel and irinotecan) but no randomised studies are available. OESIRI is a multicentre, randomised, open-label phase II trial designed to evaluate efficacy and safety of liposomal irinotecan (nal-IRI) plus 5-FU versus paclitaxel as second-line therapy in patients with mESCC. The main inclusion criteria are histologically proven mESCC in progression after first-line platinum-based chemotherapy. Patients with initial resectable disease can be included if recurrence occurred within 6 months. The primary objective is to evaluate the percentage of patients alive 9 months after randomisation. Secondary endpoints are progression-free survival, overall survival, response rate, safety and quality of life. In addition, circulating tumour DNA will be monitored to assess its prognostic value.
