    BACKGROUND & AIMS: :Response to gefitinib is strongly associated with the status of the epidermal growth factor receptor gene. Here we report the different treatment responses in a case of lung adenocarcinoma coexpressing mutant-type gene in the primary lung mass and a wild-type gene in the metastatic bone lesions. This case demonstrated that at least two strains of tumor cells were present in a single patient. This may be one of the mechanisms of gefitinib resistance.
    背景与目标: 吉非替尼的反应与表皮生长因子受体基因的状态密切相关。在这里,我们报道了在原发性肺部肿块中共表达突变型基因并在转移性骨病变中表达野生型基因的情况下,肺腺癌的不同治疗反应。该病例证明在单个患者中存在至少两种肿瘤细胞株。这可能是吉非替尼耐药的机制之一。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: PURPOSE:Abnormally high levels of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) protein are associated with advanced tumor stage/grade. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of the specific EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor gefitinib on activation of the Akt and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways in human urothelial cell carcinoma (UCC) cell lines and to identify potential markers of gefitinib responsiveness in biopsy samples of UCC. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN:Changes in markers of UCC growth and invasion after exposure to gefitinib were studied in six human UCC cell lines expressing various levels of EGFR. The findings were related to activation of Akt and MAPK. We studied the influence of gefitinib on intraepithelial expansion of the responsive 1207 cell line. EGFR, Akt, and MAPK activation was studied by Western blot analysis of a panel of 57 human UCC. RESULTS:Gefitinib had a growth-inhibitory and anti-invasive effect in two of six UCC cell lines (i.e., 647V and 1207). Gefitinib was also able to block the expansion of 1207 at the expense of normal urothelial cells. These effects did not depend on the level of expression of EGFR but they were associated with the down-regulation of MAPK and Akt activity; in 1207 cells, gefitinib activity was associated with p27 up-regulation and p21 and matrix metalloproteinase-9 down-regulation. Similarly, the Akt and MAPK pathways were found to be strongly phosphorylated in association with EGFR activation in a subset of human UCC specimens. CONCLUSIONS:Activation of EGFR, Akt, and MAPK defines a subset of UCC which might provide information for the identification of gefitinib responders.
    背景与目标: 目的:表皮生长因子受体(EGFR)蛋白异常高水平与晚期肿瘤分期/分级有关。这项研究的目的是评估特定的EGFR酪氨酸激酶抑制剂吉非替尼对人尿路上皮细胞癌(UCC)细胞系中Akt和丝裂原激活的蛋白激酶(MAPK)通路活化的影响,并鉴定吉非替尼的潜在标志物UCC活检样本的反应性。
    实验设计:在六种表达不同水平EGFR的人UCC细胞系中研究了吉非替尼暴露后UCC生长和侵袭标志物的变化。这些发现与Akt和MAPK的激活有关。我们研究了吉非替尼对响应性1207细胞系上皮内扩增的影响。 EGFR,Akt和MAPK活化是通过对57个人的UCC进行蛋白质印迹分析来研究的。
    结果:吉非替尼在六个UCC细胞系中的两个(即647V和1207)具有生长抑制和抗侵袭作用。吉非替尼还能够以正常尿路上皮细胞为代价来阻止1207的扩增。这些作用并不取决于EGFR的表达水平,但与MAPK和Akt活性的下调有关。在1207个细胞中,吉非替尼的活性与p27的上调以及p21和基质金属蛋白酶9的下调有关。同样,在人类UCC标本的一个子集中,发现Akt和MAPK途径与EGFR激活相关地被强烈磷酸化。
    结论:EGFR,Akt和MAPK的激活定义了UCC的一个子集,该子集可能为鉴定吉非替尼反应者提供信息。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: PURPOSE:To determine the maximum tolerated doses (MTD), toxicities, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of gefitinib combined with irinotecan, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and leucovorin (IFL) in patients with previously untreated advanced colorectal cancer. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN:Starting doses were gefitinib 250 mg/day orally without interruption, irinotecan 100 mg/m(2) as a 90 min intravenous (i.v.) infusion, 5-FU 400 mg/m(2) bolus i.v. and leucovorin 20 mg/m(2) i.v. on days 1 and 8 of a 21-day cycle. Dose escalations involved increasing gefitinib to 500 mg then increasing irinotecan to 125 mg/m(2) and 5-FU to 500 mg/m(2). RESULTS:Twenty-four patients received therapy. The starting doses proved to be the MTD, as attempts to increase the dose of either gefitinib or the chemotherapeutic agents resulted in dose-limiting toxicities. Gastrointestinal effects and bone marrow suppression were the principal toxicities; however, only 1/17 (6%) patients treated with the MTD had severe (grades 3-4) diarrhea and severe neutropenia occurred in only two (12%) patients. Partial responses occurred in 10/17 patients receiving the MTD and another five had stable disease. Median progression-free and overall survivals were 12.2 and 26.6 months, respectively. In ten patients treated with the MTD, the steady-state PK of gefitinib was not affected by IFL nor did gefitinib appear to influence the PK of either irinotecan or 5-FU. CONCLUSIONS:Gefitinib can be safely combined with an intermittent weekly schedule of IFL. Evidence of promising activity should encourage further clinical evaluation of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors, such as gefitinib, combined with multiagent chemotherapy for metastatic colorectal cancer.
    背景与目标: 目的:确定吉非替尼联合伊立替康,5-氟尿嘧啶(5-FU)和亚叶酸(IFL)联合治疗吉非替尼的最大耐受剂量(MTD),毒性,疗效和药代动力学(PK)。
    实验设计:起始剂量为吉非替尼250 mg /天,口服不间断,伊立替康100 mg / m(2),静脉内(i.v.)90分钟输注,5-FU 400 mg / m(2)静脉内推注。和亚叶酸钙20 mg / m(2)静脉注射在21天周期的第1天和第8天。剂量增加包括将吉非替尼增加至500 mg,然后将伊立替康增加至125 mg / m(2),将5-FU增加至500 mg / m(2)。
    结果:24例患者接受了治疗。事实证明,起始剂量是MTD,因为尝试增加吉非替尼或化学治疗剂的剂量会导致剂量限制的毒性。胃肠道疾病和骨髓抑制是主要的毒性。但是,只有1/17(6%)的MTD患者出现了严重的腹泻(3-4级),而仅2例(12%)的患者出现了严重的中性粒细胞减少。在接受MTD的10/17例患者中出现部分反应,另外5例病情稳定。中位无进展生存期和总生存期分别为12.2和26.6个月。在10例接受MTD治疗的患者中,吉非替尼的稳态PK不受IFL的影响,吉非替尼似乎也没有影响伊立替康或5-FU的PK。
    结论:吉非替尼可以与间歇性IFL每周计划安全地合并使用。有希望的活动的证据应鼓励对表皮生长因子受体酪氨酸激酶抑制剂(如吉非替尼)与多药化疗联合治疗转移性结直肠癌进行进一步的临床评价。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: PURPOSE:The purpose of this research was to assess the effects of single agent and combination treatment with trastuzumab and gefitinib on tumor growth and tumor microenvironment in two HER-2/neu overexpressing breast xenograft models, MDA-MB-435/LCC6(HER-2) (LCC6(HER-2); estrogen receptor negative) and MCF-7(HER-2) (estrogen receptor positive). EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN:LCC6(HER-2) and MCF-7(HER-2) cells, both in tissue culture and xenografts grown in SCID-Rag 2M mice, were treated with trastuzumab and gefitinib, alone or in combination. The rate of tumor growth was determined. In addition, tumor HER-2/neu and epidermal growth factor receptor expression, cell viability, cell cycle distribution, and proportion of viable hypoxic cells were determined by flow cytometric analyses of single tumor cell suspensions. RESULTS:Both tumor models were very sensitive to trastuzumab and moderately sensitive to gefitinib in vivo. The combination resulted in therapeutic effects, as judged by inhibition of tumor growth, which was greater (albeit not statistically significant) than that observed with trastuzumab administered as a single agent. Trastuzumab was effective in down-regulating HER-2/neu, and gefitinib mediated a reduction in epidermal growth factor receptor expression on tumor cells. In LCC6(HER-2) tumors, trastuzumab significantly reduced tumor cell viability, which was not improved by the addition of gefitinib. Gefitinib dramatically reduced the proportion of viable hypoxic cells in LCC6(HER-2) and MCF-7(HER-2) tumors. This effect was abrogated by the addition of trastuzumab. CONCLUSIONS:Although in vivo efficacy studies in two HER-2/neu overexpressing breast xenograft models showed that the combination of trastuzumab and gefitinib was effective, analyses of various cellular parameters failed to reveal beneficial effects and argue that this drug combination may not be favorable.
    背景与目标: 目的:本研究旨在评估曲妥珠单抗和吉非替尼单药联合治疗对两种HER-2 / neu过表达乳腺癌异种移植模型MDA-MB-435 / LCC6(HER- 2)(LCC6(HER-2);雌激素受体阴性)和MCF-7(HER-2)(雌激素受体阳性)。
    实验设计:在组织培养物中和在SCID-Rag 2M小鼠中生长的异种移植物中,分别用曲妥珠单抗和吉非替尼处理LCC6(HER-2)和MCF-7(HER-2)细胞。确定肿瘤的生长速率。另外,通过对单个肿瘤细胞悬液进行流式细胞术分析来确定肿瘤HER-2 / neu和表皮生长因子受体的表达,细胞生存力,细胞周期分布以及存活的低氧细胞的比例。
    结果:两种肿瘤模型在体内对曲妥珠单抗非常敏感,对吉非替尼敏感。通过抑制肿瘤生长来判断,该组合产生的治疗效果比曲妥珠单抗单药给药时观察到的疗效更大(尽管在统计学上不显着)。曲妥珠单抗可有效下调HER-2 / neu,吉非替尼介导肿瘤细胞表皮生长因子受体表达的降低。在LCC6(HER-2)肿瘤中,曲妥珠单抗显着降低了肿瘤细胞的生存能力,但吉非替尼的添加并不能改善其生存能力。吉非替尼显着降低了LCC6(HER-2)和MCF-7(HER-2)肿瘤中低氧存活细胞的比例。通过加入曲妥珠单抗可以消除这种作用。
    结论:尽管在两种过表达HER-2 / neu的乳腺异种移植模型中进行了体内疗效研究,结果显示曲妥珠单抗和吉非替尼联合使用是有效的,但对各种细胞参数的分析未能显示出有益的作用,并认为这种药物联合可能不利。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: PURPOSE:An inflammatory-immunological marker, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), was evaluated as a surrogate indicator for prognosis of advanced lung adenocarcinoma patients. METHODS:The subjects of this study were 199 never smokers with advanced lung adenocarcinoma, who were enrolled in a prospective randomized phase III study (First-SIGNAL) comparing gefitinib with gemcitabine plus cisplatin as first-line therapy. The values of NLR were assessed at two time points: at baseline (pretreatment) and on day 1 of the second cycle (posttreatment). RESULTS:A higher posttreatment NLR was associated with a worse tumor response (median posttreatment NLR, 1.56 for partial response, 1.64 for stable disease, and 2.70 for progressive disease; P < 0.001). The risk of progression was higher when the posttreatment NLR was higher [hazard ratio (HR) = 1.23, 95 % confidence interval (CI) 1.15-1.31; P < 0.001]. A high posttreatment NLR was associated with an increased risk of death (HR = 1.13, 95 % CI 1.06-1.21; P < 0.001). These associations did not differ according to treatment arms. When total patients were divided into four groups according to the cutoff points of pre- and posttreatment NLRs, those with a high pretreatment NLR that declined substantially after treatment showed improved survival compared with those with a high pretreatment NLR that remained high even after treatment (median overall survival, 22.0 and 15.8 months, respectively; P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS:A high posttreatment NLR is associated with poor prognosis. An early reduction in the NLR after effective treatment may indicate survival improvement in the patients with poor prognosis.
    背景与目标: 目的:炎性免疫标记物,嗜中性粒细胞与淋巴细胞之比(NLR)被评估为晚期肺腺癌患者预后的替代指标。
    方法:本研究的受试者为199位从不吸烟的晚期肺腺癌患者,他们参加了一项前瞻性随机III期研究(First-SIGNAL),比较吉非替尼与吉西他滨加顺铂作为一线治疗。在两个时间点评估NLR值:在基线(治疗前)和第二个周期的第1天(治疗后)。
    结果:较高的治疗后NLR与较差的肿瘤反应相关(治疗后中位NLR为1.56,部分反应为1.64,稳定疾病为2.70,进行性疾病为2.70; P <0.001)。当治疗后的NLR较高时,进展风险较高[风险比(HR)= 1.23,95%置信区间(CI)1.15-1.31; P <0.001]。较高的治疗后NLR会增加死亡风险(HR = 1.13,95%CI 1.06-1.21; P <0.001)。这些关联根据治疗方式而没有不同。当根据治疗前和治疗后NLR的临界点将患者分为四组时,与治疗前NLR较高但仍在治疗后仍高的患者相比,治疗前NLR较高而在治疗后明显下降的患者的生存期得到了改善。总生存期分别为22.0和15.8个月; P <0.001)。
    结论:较高的治疗后NLR与不良预后有关。有效治疗后NLR的早期降低可能表明预后不良患者的生存率得到了改善。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: :Gefitinib resistance in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a growing important concern. Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) is a main regulator of ferroptosis, which is pivotal for TNBC cell growth. We investigated GPX4-mediated ferroptosis in gefitinib sensitivity in TNBC. Gefitinib resistant TNBC cells MDA-MB-231/Gef and HS578T/Gef were constructed and treated with lentivirus sh-GPX4 and ferroptosis inhibitor ferrostatin-1. GPX4 expression, cell viability and apoptosis were detected. Malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels were evaluated. The levels of ferroptosis-related proteins were detected. Subcutaneous tumor model was established in nude mice, and gefitinib was intraperitoneally injected to evaluate tumor growth, apoptosis, and Ki-67 expression. GPX4 was increased in gefitinib-resistant cells. After silencing GPX4, the inhibition rate of cell viability was increased, the limitation of colony formation ability was reduced, apoptosis rate was increased, and the sensitivity of cells to gefitinib was improved. After silencing GPX4, MDA and ROS production were increased, while GSH was decreased. Silencing GPX4 promoted ferroptosis. Inhibition of GPX4 promoted gefitinib sensitivity by promoting cell ferroptosis. In vivo experiments also revealed that inhibition of GPX4 enhanced the anticancer effect of gefitinib through promoting ferroptosis. Overall, inhibition of GPX4 stimulated ferroptosis and enhanced TNBC cell sensitivity to gefitinib.
    背景与目标: :吉非替尼在三阴性乳腺癌(TNBC)中的耐药性日益受到关注。谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶4(GPX4)是铁质增生的主要调节剂,对TNBC细胞的生长至关重要。我们调查了吉非替尼在TNBC中GPX4介导的肥大症。构建了耐吉非替尼的TNBC细胞MDA-MB-231 / Gef和HS578T / Gef,并用慢病毒sh-GPX4和促肥大抑制剂ferrostatin-1处理。检测GPX4的表达,细胞活力和凋亡。评估了丙二醛(MDA),谷胱甘肽(GSH),活性氧(ROS)的水平。检测到与受精症相关的蛋白质水平。在裸鼠中建立皮下肿瘤模型,并腹膜内注射吉非替尼以评估肿瘤的生长,凋亡和Ki-67表达。吉非替尼耐药细胞中GPX4升高。 GPX4沉默后,细胞活力的抑制率增加,集落形成能力的局限性降低,细胞凋亡率增加,细胞对吉非替尼的敏感性提高。将GPX4沉默后,MDA和ROS产量增加,而GSH降低。沉默GPX4会促进ferroptosis。抑制GPX4通过促进细胞肥大症而促进了吉非替尼敏感性。体内实验还显示,抑制GPX4可通过促进ferroptosis来增强吉非替尼的抗癌作用。总体而言,抑制GPX4可刺激肥大症,并增强TNBC细胞对吉非替尼的敏感性。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: PURPOSE:The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitor gefitinib (Iressa) has shown antitumor activity in clinical trials against cancers, such as non-small cell lung cancer and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Research on non-small cell lung cancer has elucidated factors that may predict response to gefitinib. Less is known about molecular markers that may predict response to gefitinib in HNSCC patients. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN:We analyzed possible associations of responsiveness to gefitinib with molecular markers of the EGFR/ErbB receptor family signaling pathway using 10 established HNSCC lines in vitro. IC50 of gefitinib sensitivity was determined using clonogenic survival assays. ErbB signaling was assessed by Western and real-time reverse transcription-PCR analyses of EGFR, ErbB2, ErbB3, and ErbB4 expression levels as well as by phosphorylation analysis of pEGFR, pErbB2, pErbB3, pAkt, and pErk. EGFR sequences encoding kinase domain and EGFR gene copy numbers were determined by cDNA sequencing and real-time PCR, respectively. Finally, responsiveness to gefitinib was compared with responsiveness to the anti-EGFR antibody cetuximab (Erbitux). RESULTS:Expression levels of pErbB2 (P = 0.02) and total ErbB3 protein (P = 0.02) associated with resistance to gefitinib. Combining gefitinib with pertuzumab (Omnitarg), an antibody targeting ErbB2 heterodimerization, provided additional growth-inhibitory effect over gefitinib alone on relatively gefitinib-resistant HNSCC cell lines. The same markers did not predict resistance to cetuximab. In contrast, a similar trend suggesting association between EGFR gene copy number and drug sensitivity was observed for both gefitinib (P = 0.0498) and cetuximab (P = 0.053). No activating EGFR mutations were identified. CONCLUSIONS:EGFR amplification may predict sensitivity to gefitinib in HNSCC. However, other EGFR/ErbB receptor family members than EGFR may contribute to resistance to gefitinib. ErbB2 and ErbB3 may have potential as predictive markers and as therapeutic targets for combination therapy in treatment of HNSCC with gefitinib.
    背景与目标: 用途:表皮生长因子受体(EGFR)抑制剂吉非替尼(Iressa)在针对癌症的临床试验中显示出抗肿瘤活性,例如非小细胞肺癌和头颈鳞状细胞癌(HNSCC)。对非小细胞肺癌的研究阐明了可能预测对吉非替尼反应的因素。关于可能预测HNSCC患者对吉非替尼反应的分子标志物知之甚少。
    实验设计:我们使用10条已建立的HNSCC细胞系,分析了对吉非替尼反应性与EGFR / ErbB受体家族信号传导途径的分子标记物之间的可能联系。吉非替尼敏感性的IC50使用克隆发生生存测定法确定。通过对EGFR,ErbB2,ErbB3和ErbB4表达水平的Western和实时逆转录PCR分析以及对pEGFR,pErbB2,pErbB3,pAkt和pErk的磷酸化分析,评估了ErbB信号传导。分别通过cDNA测序和实时PCR确定编码激酶结构域的EGFR序列和EGFR基因拷贝数。最后,将对吉非替尼的反应性与对抗EGFR抗体西妥昔单抗(Erbitux)的反应性进行了比较。
    结果:与吉非替尼耐药相关的pErbB2(P = 0.02)和总ErbB3蛋白(P = 0.02)的表达水平。吉非替尼与靶向ErbB2异二聚化的抗体pertuzumab(Omnitarg)的组合,在相对耐吉非替尼的HNSCC细胞系上提供了比单独吉非替尼更高的生长抑制作用。相同的标记不能预测对西妥昔单抗的耐药性。相反,吉非替尼(P = 0.0498)和西妥昔单抗(P = 0.053)观察到相似的趋势,表明EGFR基因拷贝数与药物敏感性之间存在关联。未鉴定出激活的EGFR突变。
    结论:EGFR扩增可能预示了HNSCC对吉非替尼的敏感性。但是,除EGFR外,其他EGFR / ErbB受体家族成员可能会导致对吉非替尼的耐药性。 ErbB2和ErbB3可能具有作为吉非替尼治疗HNSCC的联合治疗的预测标志物和治疗靶标的潜力。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: BACKGROUND:Several studies implicated that lung cancer progression was governed by the interaction between estrogen receptor (ER) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling pathways. Combined targeting of EGFR and ER may have the synergistic effect in lung cancer treatment. The aim of this study was to explore the potential utility of inhibiting these two pathways with combination of anastrozole and gefitinib in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines. MATERIALS AND METHODS:The expression levels of ER (ER-α and ER-β) in lung cancer cell lines (A549, H460, SPC-A-1, H1299) and normal bronchus epithelial cell BEAS-2B were detected using real-time PCR and Western blot. Immunocytochemistry was used to locate ER-α and ER-β in cell line with highest ER expression levels. The cells were treated with anastrozole or gefitinib alone or in combination. The cell proliferation inhibition was detected by the CCK8 assay, cell cycle and apoptosis effects were detected by flow cytometry; the expression levels of phosphorylated-EGFR (p-EGFR), ERK, phosphorylated-ERK (p-ERK), AKT and phosphorylated-AKT (p-AKT) were detected by Western blot. RESULTS:Among these cell lines the expression levels of ER in A549 cells were highest. In A549 cell line, ER-α was mainly localized in the cytoplasm, whereas ER-β was mainly localized in the cytoplasm and to a lesser degree in the nucleus. The combination of two drugs increased the proliferation inhibition rates for 24h, 48 h, 72 h to 37.66 ± 1.02%, 63.41 ± 2.02%, 70.50 ± 0.86%, respectively, which was closely associated with elevation of the G0/G1 phase fraction (P<0.05). Apoptosis rates of A549 cells treated with anastrozole, gefitinib alone or in combination were 10.72 ± 1.12%, 17.40±1.28%, 23.02 ± 2.32%, respectively (P<0.05). The synergistic effects of the combination therapy were accompanied by reduction of p-EGFR, p-ERK and p-AKT expression compared with individual treatment. CONCLUSIONS:The results of this study suggest that the combination of anastrozole and gefitinib compared with either drug alone can maximally inhibit cell proliferation, induce apoptosis, and affect downstream signaling pathways. Our study supports functional interaction between the ER and the EGFR pathways in lung cancer and provides a clinically exploitable strategy for non-small cell lung cancer patients.
    背景与目标: 背景:多项研究表明,肺癌的进展受雌激素受体(ER)和表皮生长因子受体(EGFR)信号通路之间相互作用的支配。 EGFR和ER的联合靶向可能在肺癌治疗中具有协同作用。这项研究的目的是探讨在非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)细胞系中使用阿那曲唑和吉非替尼联合抑制这两种途径的潜在效用。
    材料与方法:实时检测肺癌细胞系(A549,H460,SPC-A-1,H1299)和正常支气管上皮细胞BEAS-2B中ER(ER-α和ER-β)的表达水平PCR和蛋白质印迹。免疫细胞化学法用于在具有最高ER表达水平的细胞系中定位ER-α和ER-β。单独或联合用阿那曲唑或吉非替尼处理细胞。 CCK8法检测细胞增殖抑制作用,流式细胞术检测细胞周期和凋亡效应。 Western blot检测磷酸化EGFR(p-EGFR),ERK,磷酸化ERK(p-ERK),AKT和磷酸化AKT(p-AKT)的表达水平。
    结果:在这些细胞系中,ER在A549细胞中的表达水平最高。在A549细胞系中,ER-α主要位于细胞质中,而ER-β主要位于细胞质中,程度较小。两种药物的组合分别将24h,48h,72h的增殖抑制率分别提高到37.66±1.02%,63.41±2.02%,70.50±0.86%,这与G0 / G1相分数的升高密切相关( P <0.05)。单独或联合使用阿那曲唑,吉非替尼治疗的A549细胞凋亡率分别为10.72±1.12%,17.40±1.28%,23.02±2.32%(P <0.05)。与单独治疗相比,联合治疗的协同作用伴随着p-EGFR,p-ERK和p-AKT表达的降低。
    结论:这项研究的结果表明,与单独使用这两种药物相比,阿那曲唑和吉非替尼的组合可以最大程度地抑制细胞增殖,诱导细胞凋亡并影响下游信号通路。我们的研究支持肺癌中ER和EGFR通路之间的功能相互作用,并为非小细胞肺癌患者提供了可临床利用的策略。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: :Previous studies have demonstrated that both gefitinib and erlotinib are markedly effective for the treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with somatic activating mutations of the epidermal growth factor receptor gene (EGFR-mt). These agents are considered to act on EGFR through the same mechanism. However, the efficacy of these agents against EGFR wild-type (-wt) NSCLC remains unclear, and the frequency of adverse events (AEs) appears to differ between them at each approved dose. Here, we conducted a retrospective analysis of AEs and drug efficacy in patients with NSCLC whose EGFR mutation status had been confirmed and who all received 250 mg gefitinib or 150 mg erlotinib once daily. The erlotinib group (n = 35) had more AEs, including rash, fatigue, stomatitis, anorexia and constipation. On the other hand, liver dysfunction and nail change were more frequent in the gefitinib group (n = 107). AEs of ≥grade 2, including rash, fatigue and nausea, were more frequent in the erlotinib group. The erlotinib group also showed more of a tendency to require dose reduction due to AEs. With regard to treatment efficacy for patients with EGFR-wt, there was no significant difference in progression-free survival between the two drug groups. However, this study has several limitations as of the nature of retrospective design; our data suggest that gefitinib and erlotinib might have almost equal efficacy for patients with EGFR-wt NSCLC, as is the case for patients with EGFR-mt tumors, although erlotinib appears to have higher toxicity than gefitinib at each approved dose.
    背景与目标: :以前的研究表明,吉非替尼和厄洛替尼均对具有表皮生长因子受体基因(EGFR-mt)的体细胞激活突变的非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)具有显着疗效。这些试剂被认为通过相同的机制作用于EGFR。但是,这些药物对EGFR野生型(-wt)NSCLC的疗效仍不清楚,并且在每次批准的剂量下,它们之间的不良事件(AEs)频率也有所不同。在这里,我们对NSCLC患者的AEs和药物疗效进行了回顾性分析,这些患者的EGFR突变状态已得到确认,并且均每天接受250 mg吉非替尼或150 mg厄洛替尼治疗。厄洛替尼组(n = 35)具有更多的不良事件,包括皮疹,疲劳,口腔炎,厌食和便秘。另一方面,吉非替尼组(n = 107)更常出现肝功能障碍和指甲更换。厄洛替尼组≥2级的AE,包括皮疹,疲劳和恶心。埃洛替尼组还显示出更多由于AE导致需要减少剂量的趋势。关于EGFR-wt患者的治疗效果,两组药物的无进展生存期无显着差异。然而,由于回顾性设计的性质,该研究存在一些局限性。我们的数据表明,吉非替尼和厄洛替尼对EGFR-wt NSCLC患者的疗效几乎相同,而EGFR-mt肿瘤患者也是如此,尽管在每个批准的剂量下厄洛替尼似乎比吉非替尼具有更高的毒性。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: BACKGROUND:Gefitinib is an effective treatment for patients with non-small cell lung cancer who harbor activating epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations. However, no optimal strategy has been established for these patients after gefitinib fails. The aim of this retrospective study was to assess the survival benefit of continued gefitinib treatment in these cases. PATIENTS AND METHODS:We analyzed gefitinib responders with activating EGFR mutations who developed progressive disease (PD) during the course of therapy. Prognostic variables were analyzed using a Cox proportional-hazards model. RESULTS:A total of 134 patients were retrospectively reviewed. Exon-19 deletion mutations and L858R point mutations were detected in 71 and 63 patients, respectively. Median survival time after PD with gefitinib was 14.3 months (95% confidence interval: 11.7-16.9). The median duration of continued gefitinib therapy beyond PD was 3.2 months. Statistical analysis showed that good performance status (0-1) (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.6), progression of a previously evaluated lesion (HR: 0.6), and at least 3 months of continued treatment (HR: 0.4) were independent prognostic factors. CONCLUSION:Continuation of gefitinib beyond PD is an effective optional treatment in EGFR-mutated patients.
    背景与目标: 背景:吉非替尼是具有活化表皮生长因子受体(EGFR)突变的非小细胞肺癌患者的有效治疗方法。但是,在吉非替尼治疗失败后,尚未为这些患者建立最佳策略。这项回顾性研究的目的是评估在这些情况下继续吉非替尼治疗的生存获益。
    患者和方法:我们分析了吉非替尼具有激活性EGFR突变的反应者,这些反应者在治疗过程中发生了进行性疾病(PD)。使用Cox比例风险模型分析预后变量。
    结果:对134例患者进行了回顾性检查。在71名和63名患者中分别检测到外显子19缺失突变和L858R点突变。吉非替尼治疗PD后的中位生存时间为14.3个月(95%置信区间:11.7-16.9)。超过PD的吉非替尼持续治疗的中位时间为3.2个月。统计分析表明,良好的表现状态(0-1)(危险比[HR]:0.6),先前评估的病变进展(HR:0.6)和至少3个月的持续治疗(HR:0.4)是独立的预后指标因素。
    结论:吉非替尼持续超过PD是EGFR突变患者的一种有效的可选治疗方法。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: :N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification can alter gene expression by regulating RNA splicing, stability, translocation, and translation. Emerging evidence shows that m6A modification plays an important role in cancer development and progression, including cell proliferation, migration and invasion, cell apoptosis, autophagy, and drug resistance. Until now, the role of m6A modification mediated autophagy in cancer drug resistance is still unclear. In this study, we found that m6A methyltransferase METTL3-mediated autophagy played an important role in reversing gefitinib resistance by β-elemene in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells. Mechanistically, in vitro and in vivo studies indicated that β-elemene could reverse gefitinib resistance in NSCLC cells by inhibiting cell autophagy process in a manner of chloroquine. β-elemene inhibited the autophagy flux by preventing autophagic lysosome acidification, resulting in increasing expression of SQSTM1 and LC3B-II. Moreover, both β-elemene and gefitinib decreased the level of m6A methylation of gefitinib resistance cells. METTL3 was higher expressed in lung adenocarcinoma tissues than that of paired normal tissues, and was involved in the gefitinib resistance of NSCLC cells. Furthermore, METTL3 positively regulated autophagy by increasing the critical genes of autophagy pathway such as ATG5 and ATG7. In conclusion, our study unveiled the mechanism of METTL3-mediated autophagy in reversing gefitinib resistance of NSCLC cells by β-elemene, which shed light on providing potential molecular-therapy target and clinical-treatment method in NSCLC patients with gefitinib resistance.
    背景与目标: :N6-甲基腺苷(m6A)修饰可通过调节RNA剪接,稳定性,易位和翻译来改变基因表达。新兴证据表明,m6A修饰在癌症的发展和进程中起着重要作用,包括细胞增殖,迁移和侵袭,细胞凋亡,自噬和耐药性。到目前为止,尚不清楚m6A修饰介导的自噬在癌症耐药中的作用。在这项研究中,我们发现m6A甲基转移酶METTL3介导的自噬在非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)细胞中逆转β-榄香烯对吉非替尼的耐药性中起重要作用。从机制上,体外和体内研究表明,β-榄香烯可以通过抑制细胞自噬过程以氯喹的方式逆转NSCLC细胞中的吉非替尼耐药性。 β-榄香烯通过阻止自噬溶酶体酸化来抑制自噬通量,从而导致SQSTM1和LC3B-II的表达增加。此外,β-榄香烯和吉非替尼均降低了吉非替尼耐药细胞的m6A甲基化水平。 METTL3在肺腺癌组织中的表达高于配对的正常组织,并参与了NSCLC细胞的吉非替尼耐药性。此外,METTL3通过增加自噬途径的关键基因如ATG5和ATG7来正向调节自噬。综上,我们的研究揭示了METTL3介导的自噬通过β-榄香烯逆转NSCLC细胞对吉非替尼耐药的机制,为为吉非替尼耐药的NSCLC患者提供了潜在的分子治疗靶点和临床治疗方法。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: BACKGROUND:Gender, smoking history, adenocarcinoma histology, performance status, and East Asian ethnicity were predictive factors of gefitinib response in previous analysis. However, these factors tend to be correlated with each other; it is not clear whether gender, smoking history, and adenocarcinoma histology were all independent predictors for response in East Asian populations. METHODS:Tumor response, survival and predictive factors of gefitinib response of advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients treated between May of 2002 and November of 2004 were collected retrospectively from three medical centers in Taiwan. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to test potential predictive factors associated with response to gefitinib. Overall survivals between groups with different predictive factors were compared by log-rank tests. Multivariate analyses were performed to identify factors that independently predict for survival. RESULTS:A total of 428 patients were analyzed. The median follow-up duration for living patients was 19.5 months (range, 10.2-39.9). Objective tumor response was observed in 114 patients (26.6%, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 22.4%-30.8%) and disease stabilization in 129 patients (30.2%). Response rate was statistically significant higher in adenocarcinoma, good performance status, and chemonaive patients in multivariate analysis. The median survival was 7.4 months (95% CI: 5.8-9.0) and 1-year survival was 34.3% (95% CI: 29.0%-38.0%). Significant independent predictive factors associated with longer survival in multivariate analysis were good performance status (p < 0.001) and responsiveness to gefitinib (p < 0.001). In 286 chemotherapy-treated patients, the response rate was 22.7%. Median and 1-year survival was 7.9 months and 36.7%, respectively. Good performance status was predictive of tumor response (p < 0.001) and better survival (p < 0.001) in multivariate analysis. Response to gefitinib was predictive of better survival (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS:Gender and smoking status were not, but good performance status (PS), no previous chemotherapy, and adenocarcinoma histology were independent predictive factors in multivariate analysis for gefitinib response in Taiwanese advanced non-small cell lung cancer population. In patients previously treated with chemotherapy, only good PS was an independent predictor for tumor response in multivariate analysis.
    背景与目标: 背景:性别,吸烟史,腺癌组织学,行为状态和东亚种族是吉非替尼反应的预测因素。但是,这些因素往往相互关联。目前尚不清楚性别,吸烟史和腺癌组织学是否都是东亚人群反应的独立预测因素。
    方法:回顾性收集台湾2002年5月至2004年11月间接受治疗的晚期非小细胞肺癌患者的肿瘤反应,生存率和吉非替尼反应的预测因素。单因素和多因素逻辑回归模型用于测试与吉非替尼反应相关的潜在预测因素。通过对数秩检验比较具有不同预测因素的组之间的总体生存率。进行多变量分析以鉴定独立预测生存的因素。
    结果:共分析428例患者。在职患者的中位随访时间为19.5个月(范围10.2-39.9)。在114例患者中观察到客观的肿瘤反应(26.6%,95%置信区间[CI]:22.4%-30.8%),在129例患者中观察到疾病稳定(30.2%)。在多因素分析中,腺癌,良好的工作状态和趋化性患者的应答率在统计学上显着较高。中位生存期为7.4个月(95%CI:5.8-9.0),一年生存率为34.3%(95%CI:29.0%-38.0%)。多变量分析中与更长生存期相关的重要独立预测因素是良好的表现状态(p <0.001)和对吉非替尼的反应性(p <0.001)。在286例经化学疗法治疗的患者中,缓解率为22.7%。中位生存期和1年生存期分别为7.9个月和36.7%。在多变量分析中,良好的表现状态可预测肿瘤反应(p <0.001)和更好的生存率(p <0.001)。对吉非替尼的反应可预示更好的生存率(p <0.001)。
    结论:在台湾晚期非小细胞肺癌人群的吉非替尼反应多因素分析中,性别和吸烟状况并非如此,但良好的表现状态(PS),既往无化疗和腺癌组织学是吉非替尼反应多变量分析的独立预测因素。在先前接受过化疗的患者中,多变量分析中只有良好的PS是肿瘤反应的独立预测因子。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: BACKGROUND:Gefitinib, an epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor, has demonstrated a response rate of 9%-18% in relapsed non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. The probability of response to gefitinib was not influenced by response to previous chemotherapy. Preclinical studies have suggested that celecoxib, a cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor, has antitumor activity in NSCLC and can enhance the activity of EGFR inhibitors. We conducted a phase II study evaluating the combination of gefitinib and celecoxib in platinum-refractory NSCLC patients, defined as patients whose disease had progressed on platinum-based chemotherapy or within 3 months of completing such therapy. METHODS:Platinum-refractory NSCLC patients with performance status of 0-2 and adequate organ function were included. Patients should not have been on a NSAID for 30 continuous days before study enrollment. Patients were treated with gefitinib 250 mg daily and celecoxib 400 mg twice daily. Disease assessment was performed every 8 weeks. RESULTS:Twenty-seven patients were enrolled. The response rate was 7% (2/27). The median time to progression was 2.2 months, and the median survival was 4.6 months. One female, nonsmoking patient is progression free more than 3 years after study enrollment. The drug combination was well tolerated, with the most common adverse effects being skin rash and diarrhea. CONCLUSION:In unselected platinum-refractory NSCLC patients, the response rate to the combination of celecoxib and gefitinib was similar to that observed with gefitinib alone.
    背景与目标: 背景:吉非替尼是一种表皮生长因子受体酪氨酸激酶抑制剂,已证明在复发的非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)患者中有9%-18%的缓解率。对吉非替尼有反应的可能性不受先前化疗反应的影响。临床前研究表明,celecoxib是一种环氧合酶2抑制剂,在NSCLC中具有抗肿瘤活性,并且可以增强EGFR抑制剂的活性。我们进行了II期研究,评估了难治性铂类NSCLC患者中吉非替尼和塞来昔布的联合使用,这些患者定义为铂类化疗或在完成此类治疗后3个月内疾病已进展的患者。
    方法:纳入白细胞难治性NSCLC患者,其表现状态为0-2,器官功能良好。研究入组前,患者不应连续30天接受NSAID治疗。患者每天接受250 mg吉非替尼和400 mg celecoxib每日两次治疗。每8周进行一次疾病评估。
    结果:27例患者入选。回应率为7%(2/27)。中位进展时间为2.2个月,中位生存期为4.6个月。一名女性非吸烟患者入选研究后三年以上无进展。药物组合耐受良好,最常见的不良反应是皮疹和腹泻。
    结论:在未选择的铂难治性非小细胞肺癌患者中,对塞来昔布和吉非替尼联合治疗的缓解率与单独使用吉非替尼观察到的缓解率相似。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: PURPOSE:Clinical reports about responsiveness to gefitinib treatment in patients of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with mutations in exon 20 of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) are limited. To increase understanding of the influence of exon 20 mutations on NSCLC treatment with gefitinib, we investigated the clinical features of lung cancer in patients with exon 20 mutations and analyzed the gefitinib treatment response. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN:We surveyed the clinical data and mutational studies of NSCLC patients with EGFR exon 20 mutations in the National Taiwan University Hospital and reviewed the literature reports about EGFR exon 20 mutations and the gefitinib treatment response. RESULTS:Twenty-three patients with mutations in exon 20 were identified. Nine (39%) had coexisting mutations in EGFR exons other than exon 20. Sixteen patients received gefitinib treatment, and a response was noted in 4 patients. The gefitinib response rate of NSCLC with exon 20 mutations was 25%, far lower than those with deletions in exon 19 and L858R mutations. Interestingly, different exon 20 mutations and coexisting mutations seemed to have a different influence on gefitinib response. CONCLUSIONS:EGFR exon 20 mutations of NSCLC patients result in poorer responsiveness to gefitinib treatment, but variability exists between different individuals.
    背景与目标: 目的:关于非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)表皮生长因子受体(EGFR)外显子20突变的患者对吉非替尼治疗反应的临床报道有限。为了进一步了解外显子20突变对吉非替尼治疗NSCLC的影响,我们调查了外显子20突变患者肺癌的临床特征,并分析了吉非替尼的治疗反应。
    实验设计:我们在国立台湾大学医院调查了EGFR外显子20突变的NSCLC患者的临床数据和突变研究,并回顾了有关EGFR外显子20突变和吉非替尼治疗反应的文献报道。
    结果:鉴定出23名外显子20突变的患者。除外显子20外,还有9个(39%)EGFR外显子具有共存突变。十六名患者接受了吉非替尼治疗,并且有4名患者出现了应答。外显子20突变的NSCLC的吉非替尼应答率为25%,远低于外显子19和L858R突变的吉非替尼。有趣的是,不同的外显子20突变和共存突变对吉非替尼反应的影响似乎不同。
    结论:NSCLC患者的EGFR外显子20突变导致对吉非替尼治疗的反应较差,但不同个体之间存在差异。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: PURPOSE:The epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors, gefitinib and erlotinib, are used as standard salvage therapy for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The aim of the present study was to compare their efficacies in this population. PATIENTS AND METHODS:The Taiwan Cancer Registry and the National Health Insurance claim databases were searched for newly diagnosed patients with NSCLC from 2004 to 2007 who received gefitinib or erlotinib as third-line therapy. Overall survival (OS) and time to treatment failure (TTF) were determined from registered parameters. Treatment efficacies were compared by the log-rank test in total population and subsets with different clinical characteristics. The Cox's proportion hazard model was used to estimate the adjusted hazard ratios in multivariate analyses. RESULTS:A total of 984 patients who received gefitinib (67%) or erlotinib (33%) were included. Patients receiving gefitinib or erlotinib had similar OS (median, 10.2 versus 9.9 months, p=0.524) and TTF (median, 5.5 versus 3.4 months, p=0.103). In multivariate analyses, both treatment groups had similar risk of overall mortality (adjusted hazard ratio [HR]=1.04, p=0.629) and treatment failure (adjusted HR=0.94, p=0.417). Comparing the treatments in subgroups based on age, tumour histology and gender also revealed no differences in OS and TTF. For patients who received gefitinib or erlotinib for more than 3 or 6 months, there was no difference in TTF but patients who received erlotinib had longer OS. CONCLUSIONS:Gefitinib and erlotinib had similar efficacies as salvage therapy for advanced NSCLC in Taiwan.

    病人和方法:在台湾癌症登记处和国家健康保险索赔数据库中搜索2004年至2007年新诊断的接受吉非替尼或厄洛替尼作为三线治疗的非小细胞肺癌患者。根据注册参数确定总生存期(OS)和治疗失败时间(TTF)。通过对数秩检验比较总人口和具有不同临床特征的亚组的治疗效果。使用Cox比例风险模型估算多元分析中调整后的风险比率。
    结果:共纳入984例接受吉非替尼(67%)或厄洛替尼(33%)治疗的患者。接受吉非替尼或厄洛替尼的患者的OS(中位10.2对9.9个月,p = 0.524)和TTF(中位5.5对3.4个月,p = 0.103)相似。在多变量分析中,两个治疗组的总死亡率(调整后的危险比[HR] = 1.04,p = 0.629)和治疗失败(调整后的HR = 0.94,p = 0.417)的风险相似。根据年龄,肿瘤组织学和性别对亚组的治疗方法进行比较,还发现OS和TTF均无差异。对于接受吉非替尼或厄洛替尼治疗超过3或6个月的患者,TTF没有差异,但接受厄洛替尼的患者的OS更长。
    结论:吉非替尼和厄洛替尼的疗效与台湾晚期NSCLC的挽救疗法相似。
