Journal: Immunoregulatory effects of Lurbinectedin in chronic lymphocytic leukemia. (Pubmed Central) - May 11, 2020 Altogether, these results indicate that Lurbinectedin might have antitumor activity in CLL due to its direct action on leukemic cells in combination with its effects on the tumor microenvironment. Our findings encourage further investigation of Lurbinectedin as a potential therapy for CLL.

Preclinical, Journal, Cancer stem cells: Lurbinectedin (PM01183), a selective inhibitor of active transcription, effectively eliminates both cancer cells and cancer stem cells in preclinical models of uterine cervical cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Mar 24, 2020 Lurbinectedin downregulated stem cell-related gene expression (Oct4, Nanog, and SOX2), inhibited HDAC1 activity, and effectively eliminated ALDH-high CSCs. Conclusions Lurbinectedin is highly effective on uterine cervical cancer because it eliminates CSCs, and lurbinectedin is a promising agent to overcome platinum resistance in cervical cancer.

Some traditional chemotherapeutic drugs or targeted drugs, such as alkylating agent temozolomide and transcription inhibitor lurbinectedin, have been found to have immunomodulatory effects and are expected to become new immunotherapeutic agents. In this study, we aimed to review the efficacy of new treatments for SCLC and discuss the current challenges and application prospect in the treatment of SCLC patients.
