These data may explain the limited anti-tumor effect of everolimus observed in clinical studies for pediatric and adult NF2 patients and identify upregulation of phospho-ERK as a likely resistance mechanism that could be addressed with combination therapies.

Journal: Co-Delivery of Paclitaxel and Everolimus at the Optimal Synergistic Ratio: a Promising Solution for the Treatment of Breast Cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Aug 3, 2019 Cytotoxicity data demonstrated that PTX+EVER-loaded NPs were significantly less cytotoxic than the free drug combination in MCF-7 and SKBR3 BC cell lines following 72 h, suggesting that PTX+EVER-loaded NPs remain stable and retain the drug combination loaded within the core after 72 h. The uptake of FITC-labelled NPs in SKBR3 cells was evaluated by flow cytometry, with approximately 41 % of cells demonstrating detectable fluorescence after 24 h exposure. The thorough and systematic approach used in this study to determine and evaluate a synergistic PTX:EVER ratio in conjunction with a potentially promising delivery vector for the drug combination could offer a future clinical benefit for patients with BC.

In the future, further improvement of these therapies and the development of other novel therapies, their use in personalized medicine, and a better understanding of combination therapies, will hopefully result in better outcomes for patients bearing aggressive PitNETs.
