Abstract
Mesenchymal-epithelial transition (MET) exon 14-skipping mutation (METex14) is rare in pulmonary invasive mucinous adenocarcinomas (IMAs), and the clinical impact of MET-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) remains unknown. We herein report a 75-year-old woman with IMA harboring METex14 who was treated with the MET-TKI tepotinib. The lung tumor regressed over six months; however, the patient ultimately died of exacerbated interstitial lung disease (ILD), possibly associated with tepotinib. An autopsy revealed diffuse alveolar damage in pre-existing chronic fibrosis. We discuss how to pre-evaluate ILD deterioration risks and monitor TKI-induced lung toxicity during treatment.

Assessing safety concerns of interstitial lung disease associated with antibody-drug conjugates: a real-world pharmacovigilance evaluation of the FDA adverse event reporting system. Int J Clin Pharm 2024; 46:614-622. [PMID: 38100054 DOI: 10.1007/s11096-023-01673-y] [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: 08/21/2023] [Accepted: 11/15/2023] [Indexed: 04/19/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Antibody-drug conjugates have revolutionized cancer therapy due to their selectivity and efficacy. However, concerns have been raised regarding the potential effects of trastuzumab deruxtecan in interstitial lung diseases. AIM This study aimed to investigate the safety signals and time to onset of antibody-drug conjugates induced interstitial lung disease. METHOD We utilized the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System database (2004-2022) to identify interstitial lung disease safety signals in 13 FDA-approved antibody-drug conjugates. Disproportionality analysis was conducted to estimate the reporting odds ratios for interstitial lung disease. RESULTS Seven antibody-drug conjugates exhibited safety signals of interstitial lung disease: trastuzumab deruxtecan [reporting odds ratio, ROR (95% confidence intervals, CI) = 64.15 (57.07-72.10)], enfortumab vedotin [ROR (95% CI) = 5.24 (3.25-8.43)], trastuzumab emtansine [ROR (95% CI) = 3.62 (2.90-4.53)], brentuximab vedotin [ROR (95% CI) = 3.22 (2.49-4.17)], polatuzumab vedotin [ROR (95% CI) = 2.56 (1.59-4.12)], gemtuzumab ozogamicin [ROR (95% CI) = 2.53 (1.70-3.78)], and inotuzumab ozogamicin [ROR (95% CI) = 2.33 (1.21-4.49)]. Five antibody-drug conjugates with limited reports were excluded from further analysis: belantamab mafodotin, loncastuximab tesirine, mirvetuximab sorafenib, tisotumab vedotin, and moxetumomab pasudotox. Japan and the United States were the primary reporting countries. CONCLUSION This real-world study highlights high safety signals of interstitial lung disease associated with antibody-drug conjugates. Clinicians should be aware of these safety concerns and risk factors and implement early identification measures for their patients. Future research should prioritize comprehensively exploring the relationship between antibody-drug conjugates and lung diseases.

Abstract
Secondary pharmacology screening of investigational small-molecule drugs for potentially adverse off-target activities has become standard practice in pharmaceutical research and development, and regulatory agencies are increasingly requesting data on activity against targets with recognized adverse effect relationships. However, the screening strategies and target panels used by pharmaceutical companies may vary substantially. To help identify commonalities and differences, as well as to highlight opportunities for further optimization of secondary pharmacology assessment, we conducted a broad-ranging survey across 18 companies under the auspices of the DruSafe leadership group of the International Consortium for Innovation and Quality in Pharmaceutical Development. Based on our analysis of this survey and discussions and additional research within the group, we present here an overview of the current state of the art in secondary pharmacology screening. We discuss best practices, including additional safety-associated targets not covered by most current screening panels, and present approaches for interpreting and reporting off-target activities. We also provide an assessment of the safety impact of secondary pharmacology screening, and a perspective on opportunities and challenges in this rapidly developing field.

Repeat biopsy versus initial biopsy in terms of complication risk factors and clinical outcomes for patients with non-small cell lung cancer: a comparative study of 113 CT-guided needle biopsy of lung lesions. Front Oncol 2024; 14:1367603. [PMID: 38803532 PMCID: PMC11129557 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2024.1367603] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2024] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024] Open
Abstract
Objectives The safety and feasibility of repeat biopsy after systemic treatment for non-small cell lung cancer have received extensive attention in recent years. The purpose of this research was to compare complication rates between initial biopsy and rebiopsy in non-small cell lung cancer patients with progressive disease and to assess complication risk factors and clinical results after rebiopsy. Methods The study included 113 patients initially diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer who underwent lung biopsy at initial biopsy and rebiopsy after progression while on epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) and/or chemotherapy from January 2018 to December 2021. We compared the incidence of complications between the initial biopsy and rebiopsy and analyzed the predictors factors that influenced complications in patients who underwent rebiopsy. Results The successful rate of rebiopsy was 88.5% (100/113). With the exception of two cases where lung adenocarcinoma changed into small cell lung cancer with gefitinib treatment, 98 individuals retained their initial pathological type. The secondary EGFR T790M mutation accounts for 55.6% of acquired resistance. The total number of patients with complications in initial biopsy was 25 (22.1%) and 37 (32.7%) in the rebiopsy. The incidence of pulmonary hemorrhage increased from 7.1% at the initial biopsy to 10.6% at rebiopsy, while the incidence of pneumothorax increased from 14.2% to 20.4%. Compared with the initial biopsy, the incidence of overall complications, parenchymal hemorrhage, and pneumothorax increased by 10.6%, 3.5%, and 6.2%, respectively. In all four evaluations (pneumorrhagia, pneumothorax, pleural reaction, and overall complication), there were no significant differences between the rebiopsy and initial biopsy (all p > 0.05). The multivariate logistic regression analysis suggested that male sex (odds ratio [OR] = 5.064, p = 0.001), tumor size ≤ 2 cm (OR = 3.367, p = 0.013), EGFR-TKIs with chemotherapy (OR = 3.633, p =0.023), and transfissural approach (OR = 7.583, p = 0.026) were independent risk factors for overall complication after rebiopsy. Conclusion Compared with the initial biopsy, the complication rates displayed a slight, but not significant, elevation in rebiopsy. Male sex, tumor size ≤ 2 cm, transfissural approach, and EGFR-TKIs combined with chemotherapy were independent risk factors for rebiopsy complications.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE The dried aerial parts of Veronica linariifolia subsp. dilatata (Nakai & Kitag.) D.Y.Hong named Shui Man Jing (SMJ) is a traditional Chinese medicine with a long history of clinical use in the treatment of chronic bronchitis and coughing up blood, however, its role on acute lung injury (ALI) has not been revealed yet. AIM OF THE STUDY To assess the efficiency of SMJ on ALI and to investigate whether it inhibited endothelial barrier dysfunction by regulating the EGFR/Akt/ZO-1 pathway to alleviate ALI in vivo and in vitro based on the result of network pharmacology. MATERIALS AND METHODS An in vivo model of ALI was established using inhalation of atomized lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and the effects of SMJ on ALI were evaluated through histopathological examination and inflammatory cytokines, lung histology and edema, vascular and alveolar barrier disruption. Network pharmacology was applied to predict the mechanism of SMJ in the treatment of ALI. The crucial targets were validated by RT-PCR, Western Blotting, molecular docking, immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence methods in vivo and in virto. RESULTS Administration of SMJ protected mice against LPS-induced ALI, including ameliorating the histological alterations in the lung tissues, and decreasing lung edema, protein content of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, infiltration of inflammatory cell and secretion of cytokines. SMJ exerted protective effects in ALI by inhibiting endothelial barrier dysfunction in mice and bEnd.3 cell. SMJ relieved endothelial barrier dysfunction induced by LPS through upregulating the EGFR expression. SMJ also increased the phosphorylation of Akt, and ZO-1 expression both in vivo and in vitro. CONCLUSION SMJ attenuates vascular endothelial barrier dysfunction for LPS-induced ALI via EGFR/Akt/ZO-1 pathway, and is a promising novel therapeutic candidate for ALI.

Abstract
Anticancer drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DIILD) has received increasing clinical attention, and the quality of relevant guidance documents has become critical. Our purpose was to assess the quality of documents for anticancer DIILD and summarize the recommendations. Clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) and consensus statements with recommendations were searched in electronic databases, websites of guideline organizations, and professional societies. The quality of documents was assessed using the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation II (AGREE II) methodology, and the specific recommendations were aggregated and compared. A total of 11 documents were eligible, including 6 CPGs and 5 consensus statements, and the quality of AGREE II assessments differed greatly. The domains of scope and purpose and clarity of presentation received the highest median scores, while the stakeholder involvement domain received the lowest score. Recommendations were inconsistent between documents, particularly regarding the selection of steroid regimens. The methodological quality of the guidance documents needs to be enhanced, especially in the domain of stakeholder involvement. Inconsistencies exist in documents, and further discussions among multidisciplinary experts are needed. Particularly, differences in steroid regimens require attentions, and researches on the risks of adverse events and discovery of precise biomarkers are necessary.

Abstract
A total of 162 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients were divided into discovery (N = 68) and validation (N = 94) groups. Nine Janus kinase/Signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) pathway-related single nucleotide polymorphisms were selected to explore the potential associations between genetic polymorphisms and adverse drug reactions (ADRs). The TT genotype of STAT6 rs324011 was significantly associated with severe ADRs in the recessive genetic model (TT vs. CC + CT, OR = 13.5, 95% CI = 2.12-86.09, p = 0.006 in the discovery group; OR = 8.41, 95% CI = 1.95-36.19, p = 0.004 in the validation group). The T allele was associated with a higher incidence of severe ADRs than was the C allele of rs324011 (OR = 3.67, 95% CI = 1.46-9.19, p = 0.006 in the discovery group; OR = 3.17, 95% CI = 1.44-6.99, p = 0.004 in the validation group). Patients with the CC genotype in STAT3 rs1053023 (and rs1053005) or the TT genotype of STAT6 rs324011 were likely to experience severe epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) related ADRs.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study investigated the safety and efficacy of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) re-administration after recovery from EGFR-TKI-induced interstitial lung disease (ILD). METHODS This multicenter retrospective study collected data from consecutive advanced NSCLC patients who underwent EGFR-TKI re-administration after recovery from EGFR-TKI-induced ILD. RESULTS Fifty-eight patients were registered. The grades of initial TKI-induced ILD were grade 1 to 4. TKIs used for re-administration were erlotinib for 15 patients, osimertinib for 15, gefitinib for 14, afatinib for 13 patients, and dacomitinib for 1 patient. ILD recurred in 13 patients (22.4%), comprising 3 patients with grade 1, 6 patients with grade 2, and 4 patients with grade 3. No significant associations were found between ILD recurrence and age, smoking history, performance status, time from initial ILD to TKI re-administration, or concomitant corticosteroid use. However, the incidence of ILD recurrence was high in cases of repeated use of gefitinib or erlotinib or first time use of osimertinib at TKI re-administration. The ILD recurrence rate was lowest in patients treated with first time use of gefitinib (8%) or erlotinib (8%), followed by patients treated with repeated use of osimertinib (9%). The response rate, median progression-free survival by TKI re-administration, and median overall survival were 55%, 9.6 and 84.8 months, respectively. CONCLUSION This study showed that EGFR-TKI re-administration is a feasible and effective treatment for patients who recovered from EGFR-TKI-induced ILD. Our results indicate that re-administration of EGFR-TKI is an important option for long-term prognosis after recovery from EGFR-TKI-induced ILD.

Abstract
Background There are no specific clinical medications that target cardiac fibrosis in heart failure (HF). Recent studies have shown that tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) may benefit fibrosis in various organs. However, there is limited research on their application in cardiac fibrosis. Axitinib, an FDA-approved tyrosine kinase inhibitor, was used to evaluate its effects on cardiac fibrosis and function in pressure overload-induced heart failure. Methods To build a pharmacological network, the pharmacological targets of axitinib were first retrieved from databases and coupled with key heart failure gene molecules for analysis and prediction. To validate the results outlined above, 8-week-old male C57BL/6 J mice were orally administrated of axitinib (30 mg/kg) daily for 8 weeks after Transverse Aortic Constriction (TAC) surgery. Mouse cardiomyocytes and cardiac fibroblasts were used as cell lines to test the function and mechanism of axitinib. Results We found that the pharmacological targets of axitinib could form a pharmacological network with key genes involved in heart failure. The VEGFA-KDR pathway was found to be closely related to the differential gene expression of human heart-derived primary cardiomyocyte cell lines treated with axitinib, based on analysis of the publicly available dataset. The outcomes of animal experiments demonstrated that axitinib therapy greatly reduced cardiac fibrosis and improved TAC-induced cardiac dysfunction. Further research has shown that the expression of transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β) and other fibrosis genes was significantly reduced in vivo and in vitro. Conclusion Our study provides evidence for the repurposing of axitinib to combat cardiac fibrosis, and offers new insights into the treatment of patients with HF.

PP121, a dual inhibitor of tyrosine and phosphoinositide kinases, relieves airway hyperresponsiveness, mucus hypersecretion and inflammation in a murine asthma model. Mol Med 2023; 29:154. [PMID: 37936054 PMCID: PMC10629066 DOI: 10.1186/s10020-023-00748-w] [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: 03/13/2023] [Accepted: 10/25/2023] [Indexed: 11/09/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Tyrosine kinase and phosphoinositide kinase pathways play important roles in asthma formation. As a dual tyrosine and phosphoinositide kinase inhibitor, PP121 has shown anticancer efficacy in multiple tumors. However, the study of PP121 in pulmonary diseases is still limited. Herein, we investigated the therapeutic activities of PP121 in asthma treatment. METHODS Tension measurements and patch clamp recordings were made to investigate the anticontractile characteristics of PP121 in vitro. Then, an asthma mouse model was established to further explore the therapeutic characteristics of PP121 via measurement of respiratory system resistance, histological analysis and western blotting. RESULTS We discovered that PP121 could relax precontracted mouse tracheal rings (mTRs) by blocking certain ion channels, including L-type voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels (L-VDCCs), nonselective cation channels (NSCCs), transient receptor potential channels (TRPCs), Na+/Ca2+ exchangers (NCXs) and K+ channels, and accelerating calcium mobilization. Furthermore, PP121 relieved asthmatic pathological features, including airway hyperresponsiveness, systematic inflammation and mucus secretion, via downregulation of inflammatory factors, mucins and the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)/Akt signaling pathway in asthmatic mice. CONCLUSION In summary, PP121 exerts dual anti-contractile and anti-inflammatory effects in asthma treatment, which suggests that PP121 might be a promising therapeutic compound and shed new light on asthma therapy.

[PMID: 37969303 PMCID: PMC10636461 DOI: 10.21037/jtd-23-537] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2023] [Accepted: 08/18/2023] [Indexed: 11/17/2023]
Abstract
Background Although osimertinib was approved as adjuvant therapy for lung cancer patients with EGFR mutation in various countries, there is still some ongoing debate as osimertinib has been approved based on disease-free survival (DFS) rather than overall survival (OS). We curated a case series in which we documented patterns of recurrence and efficacy and safety of osimertinib after recurrence. Methods Patients who received osimertinib as first-line treatment for postoperative recurrence between September 2018 and January 2023 were included. Clinicopathological factors, duration of osimertinib treatment (DoT), and adverse events were collected and analyzed. Results Twenty patients received osimertinib [male, n=6; median age, 75 years (range, 55-85 years)]. The EGFR mutation type was L858R in 11 patients and exon 19 deletion in eight patients. The performance status (PS) was 0 or 1 in all but two patients, who had symptomatic brain metastasis and were therefore PS 3. The first site of postoperative recurrence was locoregional in five patients and distant in 15 patients, including seven with brain metastasis. As of February 2023, 10 patients were still on osimertinib, including three with brain metastasis. Patients with brain metastasis or poor PS had a considerably shorter DoT than their counterparts. Three patients with symptomatic brain metastasis or leptomeningeal metastasis initially responded to osimertinib, but all died of disease progression. Five patients discontinued osimertinib due to serious adverse effects (pneumonitis, drug eruption, and heart failure). Conclusions Although osimertinib exerts great disease control, even in patients with brain metastasis or poor PS, their presence was associated with a poor prognosis, even with osimertinib treatment. Therefore, adjuvant osimertinib is recommended unless contraindicated.

Abstract
The identification of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) mutations in lung adenocarcinoma has facilitated the development of personalized medicine based on oncogenic drivers. EGFR-Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (TKIs) are part of the targeted therapy; they impede the phosphorylation of the intracellular tyrosine kinase component of EGFR and consequently block signal transduction pathways. These drugs inhibit the proliferation and survival of tumor cells, leading to long-term progression-free survival and overall survival. Diarrhea is one of the most frequent adverse events associated with EGFR-TKIs, affecting at least 18% of patients and reaching up to 95% in some cases. Diarrhea should be managed carefully given its association with important complications, treatment interruptions, and dose reductions. Moreover, nutritional status and quality of life (QoL) can deteriorate due to severe diarrhea. Changes in diet, such as increment of fiber, supplementation with glutamine, and use of probiotics, may contribute to a decrease in the incidence of diarrhea. Improving the control of diarrhea can provide a significant benefit to the QoL of patients.

Abstract
Since their invention in the early 2000s, tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have gained prominence as the most effective pathway-directed anti-cancer agents. TKIs have shown significant utility in the treatment of multiple hematological malignancies and solid tumors, including chronic myelogenous leukemia, non-small cell lung cancers, gastrointestinal stromal tumors, and HER2-positive breast cancers. Given their widespread applications, an increasing frequency of TKI-induced adverse effects has been reported. Although TKIs are known to affect multiple organs in the body including the lungs, liver, gastrointestinal tract, kidneys, thyroid, blood, and skin, cardiac involvement accounts for some of the most serious complications. The most frequently reported cardiovascular side effects range from hypertension, atrial fibrillation, reduced cardiac function, and heart failure to sudden death. The potential mechanisms of these side effects are unclear, leading to critical knowledge gaps in the development of effective therapy and treatment guidelines. There are limited data to infer the best clinical approaches for the early detection and therapeutic modulation of TKI-induced side effects, and universal consensus regarding various management guidelines is yet to be reached. In this state-of-the-art review, we examine multiple pre-clinical and clinical studies and curate evidence on the pathophysiology, mechanisms, and clinical management of these adverse reactions. We expect that this review will provide researchers and allied healthcare providers with the most up-to-date information on the pathophysiology, natural history, risk stratification, and management of emerging TKI-induced side effects in cancer patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Interstitial lung disease (ILD) was a relatively common cause of drug-induced mortality. However, the safety profile of the whole TKIs induced ILD was largely unknown. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS The reported cases of ILD associated with TKIs were downloaded from the FDA adverse event reporting system (FAERS) database between 1 January 2004 and 30 April 2022 to detect ILD signals by disproportionality analysis. Furthermore, the fatality rate and time to onset (TTO) of various TKIs were also calculated. RESULTS The median age of total 2999 reported cases was 67. The largest reported cases came from osimertinib (n = 736, 24.5%). However, gefitinib had the highest ROR of 12.47 (11.4, 13.64) and IC of 3.53 (3.23, 3.86), means the strongest association with ILD. Trametinib, vemurafenib, larotectinib, selpercatinib, and cabozantinib did not show ILD signal. The median age of dead cases was 72 (Q1:62, Q3:83), and 53.02% (n = 579) were female and 41.11% (n = 449) were male. MET group showed the highest fatality rate of 55.17% with the shortest median TTO of 21 days (Q1: 8.5, Q3: 35.5). CONCLUSIONS TKIs were significantly associated with ILD. More attention should be paid to female, older, MET group with shorter TTO, as their prognosis might be worse.

Abstract
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations are the most common oncogenic driver in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) are widely used in the treatment of lung cancer, especially in the first-line treatment of advanced NSCLC, and EGFR-TKIs monotherapy has achieved better efficacy and tolerability compared with standard chemotherapy. However, acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs and associated adverse events pose a significant obstacle to targeted lung cancer therapy. Therefore, there is an urgent need to seek effective interventions to overcome these limitations. Natural medicines have shown potential therapeutic advantages in reversing acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs and reducing adverse events, bringing new options and directions for EGFR-TKIs combination therapy. In this paper, we systematically demonstrated the resistance mechanism of EGFR-TKIs, the clinical strategy of each generation of EGFR-TKIs in the synergistic treatment of NSCLC, the treatment-related adverse events of EGFR-TKIs, and the potential role of traditional Chinese medicine in overcoming the resistance and adverse reactions of EGFR-TKIs. Herbs and active compounds have the potential to act synergistically through multiple pathways and multiple mechanisms of overall regulation, combined with targeted therapy, and are expected to be an innovative model for NSCLC treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND With the use of targeted drugs in lung cancer patients, targeted drug-induced interstitial lung disease (ILD) has attracted more and more attention. The incidence, time, and severity of different targeted drug-induced ILD vary. Almonertinib/HS-10296 is a third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI). Post-marketing safety and effectiveness of almonertinib have been confirmed. The reported adverse events of almonertinib were mainly an increase in creatine phosphokinase, aspartate aminotransferase, and alanine aminotransferase, and onset of rash. Almonertinib-induced ILD is rare. CASE REPORT This paper reported the case of a patient with lung adenocarcinoma complicated with interstitial lung abnormality (ILA). Gene detection showed L858R mutation in exon 21 of the EGFR gene. After operation, almonertinib (110 mg per day) was prescribed. 3 months later, ILD was found by chest CT due to dyspnea. MANAGEMENT AND OUTCOME Subsequently, almonertinib was stopped. With the administration of intravenous glucocorticoid and oxygen inhalation, the patient's dyspnea was significantly regressed and lung lesions regressed on follow-up chest CT done after discharge. DISCUSSION This case suggested that we should pay attention to the existence of ILD/ILA before using targeted drugs. The use of targeted drugs should be more strictly controlled and monitored in patients with previous ILA or ILD. This paper also reviewed the relevant literature on the drug characteristics and summarized the risk factors of ILD caused by EGFR-TKI.

Abstract
Osimertinib, the third generation epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI), is the standard treatment for nonsmall cell lung cancer with EGFR mutation. However, osimertinib-induced interstitial lung disease (OsiILD) is considered to be a serious adverse event, so some patients will have to discontinue the use of osimertinib due to OsiILD. Almonertinib is a novel third-generation EGFR-TKI. We herein report a patient who developed OsiILD after the use of osimertinib and then switched to almonertinib for further treatment with success. This is the first report of a successfull rechallenge with low-dose almonertinib after OsiILD. We also reviewed the literature to explore the possible risk factors and the subsequent treatment of OsiILD, suggesting that low-dose almonertinib may be an option for follow-up treatment of OsiILD.

Abstract
Gefitinib (GEF) is an inhibitor of the epidermal growth factor receptor, linked to higher risk of severe/fatal interstitial lung disease (ILD). This study was performed to determine the protective roles of an angiotensin-II type-1 receptor (AT1R) "valsartan (VAL)" in prevention of lung inflammation, oxidative stress and metabolites alteration induced by GEF. Four groups of male Wistar albino rats were received vehicle, VAL (30 mg/kg), GEF (30 mg/kg), or both for four weeks. Blood samples and lungs were harvested for plasma metabolites and histological analysis, respectively, and evaluation of inflammation and oxidative stress. GEF monotherapy showed a dense inflammation in lungs, and significantly increased tumor necrosis factor-α (P = 0.0349), interleukin-6 (P < 0.0001), chemokine ligand-3 (P = 0.0420), and interleukin-1β (P = 0.0377). GEF increased oxidative stress markers including glutathione, malondialdehyde, and catalase levels. Also, several plasma metabolites including butanoic acid, N-methylphenylethanolamine, oxalic acid, l-alanine, phosphoric acid, l-theorinine, pyroglutamic acid, and 2-bromosebacic acid were changed by GEF. The combination of VAL plus GEF reduced the inflammation and oxidative stress mediated by GEF monotherapy. In addition, the combination treatment returned plasma metabolites to the normal levels compared to GEF monotherapy. These findings revealed that VAL has a possible pulmonary protective role against pulmonary toxicity of GEF, which may lead to novel approaches for management of GEF-induced ILD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rezivertinib (BPI-7711) is a novel third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI). This phase IIa study was part of a phase I/IIa study (NCT03386955), aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rezivertinib as the first-line treatment for patients with locally advanced or metastatic/recurrent EGFR mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS Patients received the first-line treatment of 180 mg rezivertinib orally once daily until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent. The primary endpoint was the objective response rate (ORR) assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR). Secondary endpoints included disease control rate (DCR), duration of response (DoR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and safety. RESULTS From Jun 12, 2019, to Oct 17, 2019, 43 patients were enrolled. At the data cutoff date on Dec 23, 2021, the ORR by BICR was 83.7% (95% CI: 69.3-93.2%). The median DoR was 19.3 (95% CI: 15.8-25.0) months. The median PFS by BICR was 20.7 (95% CI: 13.8-24.8) months and 22.0 (95% CI: 16.8-26.3) months by investigators. Data on OS was immature.

Abstract
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) represented by gefitinib and erlotinib are widely used in treating non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, acquired resistance to EGFR-TKI treatment remains a clinical challenge. In recent years, emerging research investigated in EGFR-TKI-based combination therapy regimens, and remarkable achievements have been reported. This article focuses on EGFR-TKI-based regimens, reviews the standard and novel application of EGFR targets, and summarizes the mechanisms of EGFR-TKI combinations including chemotherapy, anti-vascular endothelial growth factor monoclonal antibodies, and immunotherapy in the treatment of NSCLC. Additionally, we summarize clinical trials of EGFR-TKI-based combination therapy expanding indications to EGFR mutation-negative lung malignancies. Moreover, novel strategies are under research to explore new drugs with good biocompatibility. Nanoparticles encapsulating non-coding RNA and chemotherapy of new dosage forms drawn great attention and showed promising prospects in effective delivery and stable release. Overall, as the development of resistance to EGFR-TKIs treatment is inevitable in most of the cases, further research is needed to clarify the underlying mechanism of the resistance, and to evaluate and establish EGFR-TKI combination therapies to diversify the treatment landscape for NSCLC.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced myositis is a severe adverse event caused by chemotherapeutic agents such as immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) or cytotoxic agents. We experienced a patient with gefitinib-induced myositis with symptoms of muscle cramps and stiffness in the limbs, and reported the treatment process. A 70-year-old woman received four courses of carboplatin (CBDCA)+pemetrexed (PEM)+gefitinib (intravenous CBDCA area under the curve (AUC) 5 and PEM 500 mg/m2, every 3 weeks, and oral gefitinib 250 mg daily), for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation-positive stage IV lung cancer treatment; followed by seven courses of PEM+gefitinib, and continued gefitinib monotherapy thereafter. Myositis occurred 5 months after the initiation of gefitinib monotherapy. She developed strong limb cramps despite regular oral administration of 400 mg acetaminophen three times a day and complained of pain on a numeric rating scale of 10/10. Her creatine kinase (CK) was elevated from the second course of CBDCA+PEM+gefitinib but was stable at grade 1-2 thereafter. However, the muscle symptoms disappeared with CK normalization within a few days of gefitinib discontinuation due to disease progression. The Naranjo Adverse Drug Reaction Scale score was 6, suggesting a probable association. Osimertinib (an EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor)-induced myositis has been reported, but similar events were first observed with gefitinib in this case. Consequently, when treating with gefitinib, myositis, including the CK variation, should be monitored and appropriately managed with multidirectional treatment.

Abstract
For advanced metastatic non-small-lung cancer, the landscape of actionable driver alterations is rapidly growing, with nine targetable oncogenes and seven approvals within the last 5 years. This accelerated drug development has expanded the reach of targeted therapies, and it may soon be that a majority of patients with lung adenocarcinoma will be eligible for a targeted therapy during their treatment course. With these emerging therapeutic options, it is important to understand the existing data on immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), along with their efficacy and safety for each oncogene-driven lung cancer, to best guide the selection and sequencing of various therapeutic options. This article reviews the clinical data on ICIs for each of the driver oncogene defined lung cancer subtypes, including efficacy, both for ICI as monotherapy or in combination with chemotherapy or radiation; toxicities from ICI/targeted therapy in combination or in sequence; and potential strategies to enhance ICI efficacy in oncogene-driven non-small-cell lung cancers.

Abstract
Following respiratory viral infection, regeneration of the epithelial barrier is required to preserve lung function and prevent secondary infections. Lung regulatory T (Treg) cells are critical for maintaining blood oxygenation following influenza virus infection through production of the EGFR ligand amphiregulin (Areg); however, how Treg cells engage with progenitors within the alveolar niche is unknown. Here, we describe local interactions between Treg cells and an Areg-responsive population of Col14a1+EGFR+ lung mesenchymal cells that mediate type II alveolar epithelial (AT2) cell-mediated regeneration following influenza virus infection. We propose a mechanism whereby Treg cells are deployed to sites of damage and provide pro-survival cues that support mesenchymal programming of the alveolar niche. In the absence of fibroblast EGFR signaling, we observe impaired AT2 proliferation and disrupted lung remodeling following viral clearance, uncovering a crucial immune/mesenchymal/epithelial network that guides alveolar regeneration.

Abstract
Our main objective was to identify abundantly expressed tyrosine kinases in multiple myeloma (MM) as potential therapeutic targets. We first compared the transcriptomes of malignant plasma cells from newly diagnosed MM patients who were risk-categorized based on the patient-specific EMC-92/SKY-92 gene expression signature values vs. normal plasma cells from healthy volunteers using archived datasets from the HOVON65/GMMG-HD4 randomized Phase 3 study evaluating the clinical efficacy of bortezomib induction/maintenance versus classic cytotoxic drugs and thalidomide maintenance. In particular, ERBB1/EGFR was significantly overexpressed in MM cells in comparison to normal control plasma cells, and it was differentially overexpressed in MM cells from high-risk patients. Amplified expression of EGFR/ERBB1 mRNA in MM cells was positively correlated with increased expression levels of mRNAs for several DNA binding proteins and transcription factors with known upregulating activity on EGFR/ERBB1 gene expression. MM patients with the highest ERBB1/EGFR expression level had significantly shorter PFS and OS times than patients with the lowest ERBB1/EGFR expression level. High expression levels of EGFR/ERBB1 were associated with significantly increased hazard ratios for unfavorable PFS and OS outcomes in both univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards models. The impact of high EGFR/ERBB1 expression on the PFS and OS outcomes remained significant even after accounting for the prognostic effects of other covariates. These results regarding the prognostic effect of EGFR/ERBB1 expression were validated using the MMRF-CoMMpass RNAseq dataset generated in patients treated with more recently applied drug combinations included in contemporary induction regimens. Our findings provide new insights regarding the molecular mechanism and potential clinical significance of upregulated EGFR/ERBB1 expression in MM.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a severe threat to women’s health because of its aggressive nature, early age of onset, and high recurrence rate. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to evaluate the anti-tumor effects of Gallic acid (GA) on the TNBC HCC1806 cells in vitro. The cell proliferation was detected by MTT and plate clone formation assays, cell apoptosis, cell cycle, and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) were analyzed by flow cytometry and Hoechst 33258 staining assays, and the intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation were also investigated. Real-Time PCR and western blot were examined to explore the mechanism of action. The results indicated that GA suppressed HCC1806 cells proliferation and promoted HCC1806 cells apoptosis. Meanwhile, GA treatment changed the morphology of the HCC1806 cells. In addition, GA blocked the HCC1806 cells cycle in the S phase, and it induced cells apoptosis accompanied by ROS accumulation and MMP depolarization. Real-Time PCR results suggested that GA increased Bax, Caspase-3, Caspase-9, P53, JINK and P38 mRNA expression, and decreased Bcl-2, PI3K, AKT and EGFR mRNA expression. Western blotting results suggested that GA increased Bax, cleaved-Caspase-3, cleaved-Caspase-9, P53, P-ERK1/2, P-JNK, P-P38 proteins expression, and decreased Bcl-2, P-PI3K, P-AKT, P-EGFR proteins expression. Furthermore, molecular docking suggested that GA has the high affinity for PI3K, AKT, EGFR, ERK1/2, JNK, and P38. In conclusion, GA could suppress HCC1806 cells proliferation and promote HCC1806 cells apoptosis through the mitochondrial apoptosis pathway and induces ROS generation which further inhibits PI3K/AKT/EGFR and activates MAPK signaling pathways. Our study will provide some new references for using GA in the treatment of TNBC.

Abstract
Homeostasis is achieved by balancing cell survival and death. In cancer cells, especially those carrying driver mutations, the processes and signals that promote apoptosis are inhibited, facilitating the survival and proliferation of these dysregulated cells. Apoptosis induction is an important mechanism underlying the therapeutic efficacy of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) for EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the mechanisms by which EGFR-TKIs induce apoptosis have not been fully elucidated. A deeper understanding of the apoptotic pathways induced by EGFR-TKIs is essential for the developing novel strategies to overcome resistance to EGFR-TKIs or to enhance the initial efficacy through therapeutic synergistic combinations. Recently, therapeutic strategies targeting apoptosis have been developed for cancer. Here, we review the state of knowledge on EGFR-TKI-induced apoptotic pathways and discuss the therapeutic strategies for enhancing EGFR-TKI efficiency. We highlight the great progress achieved with third-generation EGFR-TKIs. In particular, combination therapies of EGFR-TKIs with anti-vascular endothelial growth factor/receptor inhibitors or chemotherapy have emerged as promising therapeutic strategies for patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC. Nevertheless, further breakthroughs are needed to yield an appropriate standard care for patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC, which requires gaining a deeper understanding of cancer cell dynamics in response to EGFR-TKIs.

Abstract
Osimertinib was a third-generation, irreversible epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI), which approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2015 for treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Our study was to explore the adverse events (AEs) caused by osimertinib through data mining of the US FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS), and provide reference for clinical safety. Data of osimertinib were collected from the FAERS database covering the period from first quarter of 2016 to the fourth quarter of 2021. Disproportionality analyses was employed to quantify the associated AE signals of osimertinib and detect the risk signals from the data in the FAERS database. Reporting odds ratio (ROR) was used to detect the risk signals from the data in the FAERS database. The definition relied on system organ class (SOCs) and preferred terms (PTs) by the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA). Totally, 9,704,33 reports were collected from the FAERS database, 10,804 reports of osimertinib were identified as the 'primary suspected (PS)' AEs. Osimertinib induced AEs occurred in 27 organ systems. 68 significant disproportionality PTs satisfying with the four algorithms were retained at the same time. Unexpected significant AEs such as scrotal volvulus, hepatic function abnormal, venous thromboembolisms might also occur. The median onset time of osimertinib-associated AEs was 58 days (interquartile range [IQR] 14-212 days), and the majority of the AEs occurred within the first 30 days after osimertinib initiation. Our study found significant new AEs signals of osimertinib and might provide support for clinical monitoring and risk identification of osimertinib.

Abstract
In this era of cancer immunotherapy, the response rates of immune checkpoint blockers (ICBs) are still too low and the adverse events may also be significant. Of the ways of patching up such deficits, chemotherapy (ChT), especially if metronomic, seems promising, especially as immunity induced by immunogenic cell death (ICD) may be preserved. However, side effects, e.g., lymphocytopenia and interstitial pneumonitis cannot be ignored; eventually, resistance may also ensue. Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs), being potent angiogenic factors, promote cancer cells’ purposeful angiogenesis rendering an extremely resistant tumor microenvironment (TME). This highly evasive and extremely resilient TME actually demands multi-agent, multi-target agents as currently in use through traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). With a good track record of 3,000 years, TCM is favored by mainland Chinese cancer patients. Although TCM had been criticized as unscientific and imprecise, recently, artificial intelligence (AI) technologies serve to elucidate the sound scientific basis and validity of TCM. Several TCM preparations having anti-VEGF actions are found; others suppress immune checkpoints. Especially, these herbs’ multi-prong approach appears to be more effective than Western medicine’s primarily monotherapy approach if one wishes to eradicate the very resistant TME. A “bonus” point is that some autoimmune-related adverse side effects of ICBs may also be reduced by TCM. Nevertheless, as the TCM experience is mostly anecdotal, robust clinical trials are mandatory. Moreover, other TCM problems, e.g., herbal batch variations and consistency and uniformity of herbal prescriptions are outstanding. Invariably, TCM prescriptions have daily variations as the practice of “syndrome differentiation” is hailed. Despite experienced TCM practitioners would refuse to give up their time-honored traditional practice, the multi-prong approach is still very attractive for the undue resilience of TME, let alone its good safety profile, ready availability, and eminent affordability. Although the passage is dark, light is now appearing at the end of the tunnel.

Chitosan Oligosaccharide Prevents Afatinib-Induced Barrier Disruption and Chloride Secretion through Modulation of AMPK, PI3K/AKT, and ERK Signaling in T84 Cells. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14204255.

Abstract
Diarrhea is an important adverse effect of epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors, especially afatinib. Novel antidiarrheal agents are needed to reduce epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitor-associated diarrhea to improve the quality of life and treatment outcome in cancer patients. This study aimed to investigate the anti-diarrheal activity of chitosan oligosaccharide against afatinib-induced barrier disruption and chloride secretion in human intestinal epithelial cells (T84 cells). Chitosan oligosaccharide (100 μg/mL) prevented afatinib-induced barrier disruption determined by changes in transepithelial electrical resistance and FITC-dextran flux in the T84 cell monolayers. In addition, chitosan oligosaccharide prevented afatinib-induced potentiation of cAMP-induced chloride secretion measured by short-circuit current analyses in the T84 cell monolayers. Chitosan oligosaccharide induced the activation of AMPK, a positive regulator of epithelial tight junction and a negative regulator of cAMP-induced chloride secretion. Moreover, chitosan oligosaccharide partially reversed afatinib-induced AKT inhibition without affecting afatinib-induced ERK inhibition via AMPK-independent mechanisms. Collectively, this study reveals that chitosan oligosaccharide prevents the afatinib-induced diarrheal activities in T84 cells via both AMPK-dependent and AMPK-independent mechanisms. Chitosan oligosaccharide represents a promising natural polymer-derived compound for further development of treatment for afatinib-associated diarrheas.

Abstract
The targeted agents capmatinib and tepotinib provide a new treatment for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with MET exon 14 skipping mutation (METex14). However, drug-induced pneumonitis is an uncommon but threatening adverse effect found in patients treated with both capmatinib and tepotinib. The safety of treating a patient with a MET inhibitor after drug-induced pneumonitis by another MET inhibitor remains unclear. Here, we present a case of a patient with NSCLC harboring a METex14 who was treated with a standard dose of tepotinib after advanced capmatinib-induced pneumonitis and did not present pneumonitis relapse. Tepotinib may be a safe option when medical professionals consider switching MET inhibitors after patients experience pneumonitis.

Abstract
Lung cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related morbidity and mortality. Epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) have become the standard treatment for EGFR-mutated advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Unfortunately, drug resistance is inevitable in most cases. EGFR-TKI combined with angiogenesis inhibitors is a treatment scheme being explored to delay the therapeutic resistance, which is called "A+T treatment". Several clinical trials have demonstrated that the A+T treatment can improve the progression free survival (PFS) of the NSCLC patients. However, compared to EGFR-TKI monotherapy, the benefits of the A+T treatment based on different EGFR-TKIs, as well as its safety and exploration prospects are still unclear. Therefore, we reviewed the literature related to all three generations EGFR-TKIs combined with angiogenesis inhibitors, and summarized the mechanism, benefit, safety, optimal target population of A+T treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor/ Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR/ALK TKIs) may provoke fatal interstitial pneumonitis (IP). The study was conducted to characterize the main characteristics of EGFR/ALK TKI-induced IP and identify factors associated with death. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A disproportionality analysis was conducted using Vigibase, the World Health Organization pharmacovigilance database. Clinical features of patients with EGFR/ALK-TKI-related IP were compared between the fatal and non-fatal groups. RESULTS A total of 3355 EGFR/ALK-TKI-IP events were identified, over half of them from Asia (57.47%) and mostly the aged (63.21%). Osimertinib appeared the strongest IP association. The median time to onset (TTO) was 40 (interquartile range [IQR] 16-84) days. There were significant differences between the fatal and non-fatal groups in terms of reporting year and TKI regimens (P < 0.05). The fatality rate of erlotinib-induced IP was the highest (35.54%). CONCLUSION Our study showed that EGFR/ALK TKIs were associated with IP that had a high fatality rate and tended to occur earlier in fatal cases. It is necessary to raise awareness of IP surveillance when EGFR/ALK TKIs were administered.

Abstract
Molecular targeted therapy significantly improved the therapeutic efficacy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with driver gene mutations but also with new toxicity profiles. Although most patients treated with these drugs developed relatively controllable toxicity, significant pulmonary toxicity events, including interstitial lung disease, occurred in a small proportion of patients and can lead to discontinuation or even be life-threatening. Pulmonary toxicity associated with these anti-tumor drugs is a problem that cannot be ignored in clinical practice. The prompt diagnosis of drug-related lung injury and the consequent differential diagnosis with other forms of pulmonary disease are critical in the management of pulmonary toxicity. Current knowledge of the pathophysiology and management of pulmonary toxicity associated with these targeted drugs is limited, and participants should be able to identify and respond to the development of drug-induced pulmonary toxicity. This review offers information about the potential pathogenesis, risk factors and management for the development of these events based on the available literature. This review focused on pulmonary toxicities in driver gene-positive NSCLC therapy by describing the related adverse events to promote the awareness and management of this important toxicity related to antitumor-targeted therapy.

Abstract
Codonopsis lanceolata is a perennial smelly herbaceous plant and widely employed for the treatment of various lung cancer and inflammation. However, the anticancer substances in C. lanceolata and their underlying mechanisms had not been well clarified. In this study, six compounds were obtained from the water extracts of C. lanceolata polyacetylenes (CLP) and then identified as syringin, codonopilodiynoside A, lobetyol, isolariciresinol, lobetyolin, and atractylenolide III. Treatment with CLP remarkably suppressed the cell proliferation, colony formation, migration, and invasion of A549 cells. Synergistic effects of lobetyolin and lobetyol were equivalent to the antiproliferative activities of CLP, while other compounds did not have any inhibition on the viabilities of A549 cells. CLP also reduced the expression of Ras, PI3K, p-AKT, Bcl-2, cyclin D1, and CDK4 but increased the expression of Bax, GSK-3β, clv-caspase-3, and clv-caspase-9, which could be reversed by the PI3K activator 740YP. Furthermore, CLP retarded the growths of tumor and lung pathogenic bacteria in mice. It demonstrated that lobetyolin and lobetyol were the main antitumor compounds in C. lanceolata. CLP induced cell apoptosis of lung cancer cells via inactivation of the Ras/PI3K/AKT pathway and ameliorated lung dysbiosis, suggesting the therapeutic potentials for treating human lung cancer.

Abstract
Medication-induced pulmonary injury (MIPI) is a complex medical condition that has become increasingly common yet remains stubbornly difficult to diagnose. Diagnosis can be aided by combining knowledge of the most common imaging patterns caused by MIPI with awareness of which medications a patient may be exposed to in specific clinical settings. The authors describe six imaging patterns commonly associated with MIPI: sarcoidosis-like, diffuse ground-glass opacities, organizing pneumonia, centrilobular ground-glass nodules, linear-septal, and fibrotic. Subsequently, the occurrence of these patterns is discussed in the context of five different clinical scenarios and the medications and medication classes typically used in those scenarios. These scenarios and medication classes include the rheumatology or gastrointestinal clinic (disease-modifying antirheumatic agents), cardiology clinic (antiarrhythmics), hematology clinic (cytotoxic agents, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, retinoids), oncology clinic (immune modulators, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, monoclonal antibodies), and inpatient service (antibiotics, blood products). Additionally, the article draws comparisons between the appearance of MIPI and the alternative causes of lung disease typically seen in those clinical scenarios (eg, connective tissue disease-related interstitial lung disease in the rheumatology clinic and hydrostatic pulmonary edema in the cardiology clinic). Familiarity with the most common imaging patterns associated with frequently administered medications can help insert MIPI into the differential diagnosis of acquired lung disease in these scenarios. However, confident diagnosis is often thwarted by absence of specific diagnostic tests for MIPI. Instead, a working diagnosis typically relies on multidisciplinary consensus. ©RSNA, 2021.

Abstract
Background: In COVID-19, EGFR production is upregulated in the alveolar epithelial cells. EGFR overexpression further activates STAT-3 and increases lung pathology. The EGFR pathway is also one of the major nodes in pulmonary fibrosis. Methods: Nimotuzumab, a humanized anti-EGFR antibody, was used to treat three patients with severe or moderate COVID-19. The antibody was administered in combination with other drugs included in the national COVID-19 protocol. Results: Nimotuzumab was well tolerated. IL-6 decreased from the first antibody infusion. Clinical symptoms significantly improved after nimotuzumab administration, and the CT scans at discharge showed major resolution of the lung lesions and no signs of fibrosis. Conclusion: Safe anti-EGFR antibodies like nimotuzumab may modulate COVID-19-associated hyperinflammation and prevent fibrosis. Clinical Trial Registration: RPCEC00000369 (RPCEC rpcec.sld.cu).

Abstract
Background Anti-depressants have been reported to own anti-tumor potential types of cancers; however, the role of imipramine in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has not been elucidated. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) was known to be one of the key regulators that control NSCLC progression. Whether EGFR would be the target of imipramine for suppressing tumor signaling transduction and results in anti-tumor potential is remaining unclear. Methods We used CL-1-5-F4 cells and animal models to identify the underlying mechanism and therapeutic efficacy of imipramine. Cytotoxicity, apoptosis, invasion/migration, DNA damage, nuclear translocation of NF-κB, activation of NF-κB, phosphorylation of EGFR/PKC-δ/NF-κB was assayed by MTT, flow cytometry, transwell, wound healing assay, comet assay, immunofluorescence staining, NF-κB reporter gene assay and Western blotting, respectively. Tumor growth was validated by CL-1-5-F4/NF-κB-luc2 bearing animal model. Results Imipramine effectively induces apoptosis of NSCLC cells via both intrinsic and extrinsic apoptosis signaling. DNA damage was increased, while, invasion and migration potential of NSCLC cells was suppressed by imipramine. The phosphorylation of EGFR/PKC-δ/NF-κB and their downstream proteins were all decreased by imipramine. Similar tumor growth inhibition was found in imipramine with standard therapy erlotinib (EGFR inhibitor). Non-obvious body weight loss and liver pathology change were found in imipramine treatment mice. Conclusion Imipramine-triggered anti-NSCLC effects in both in vitro and in vivo model are at least partially attributed to its suppression of EGFR/PKC-δ/NF-κB pathway.

Abstract
Drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DI-ILD) is a rare, yet life-threatening complication associated with tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy. Third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor-TKI, osimertinib use can be associated with a benign radiological finding called transient asymptomatic pulmonary opacities that can be confused with an infectious pulmonary process resulting in overtreatment with antibiotics or premature treatment withdrawal or severe DI-ILD. In this case, our patient with newly diagnosed metastatic non-small cell lung cancer on treatment with osimertinib developed very early onset severe DI-ILD (grade-IV) with a unique pattern of pulmonary involvement and was treated with high-dose corticosteroids with a response. She was later successfully rechallenged with osimertinib and responded well to the treatment. Our case highlights the importance of being cognizant of the possibility that DI-ILD can rarely occur within a week of treatment initiation with osimertinib and safe reintroduction of the drug is possible in select patients following complete resolution of pulmonary radiographic findings and clinical symptoms even with high-grade adverse events.
