Journal, Microsatellite Instability, MSi-H Biomarker, PD(L)-1 Biomarker, IO Biomarker: The role of autophagy in the treatment of BRAF mutant colorectal carcinomas differs based on microsatellite instability status. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 24, 2019 ...Monoclonal antibodies against EGFR (cetuximab and panitumumab) represent a major step in the treatment of mCRC...Checkpoint inhibitors, such as anti-PD1 (nivolumab and pembrolizumab) and anti-CTLA-4 (ipilimumab) antibodies have already been developed and applied in mCRC patients with MSI-H phenotype...Both combinatorial approaches reduce cell viability through the induction of apoptotic cell death. The findings of this study point out the importance of different approach for the treatment of BRAF mutant metastatic colorectal cancers based on their microsatelite instability phenotype.

Journal: A comparative analysis of EGFR-targeting antibodies for gold nanoparticle CT imaging of lung cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 18, 2019 ...Three different contrast agents were compared for their tumor targeting effectiveness: non-targeted nanoparticles, nanoparticles conjugated with full-sized anti-EGFR antibodies (cetuximab), and nanoparticles conjugated with a single-domain llama-derived anti-EGFR antibody, which is smaller than the cetuximab, but has a lower binding affinity...This study provides useful insight into targeted nanoparticle design and demonstrates that nanoparticle contrast agents can be used to detect tumor receptor overexpression. Combining receptor status data with traditional imaging characteristics has the potential for better differentiation of malignant lung tumors from benign lesions.

(Pubmed Central) - Apr 18, 2019 Combining receptor status data with traditional imaging characteristics has the potential for better differentiation of malignant lung tumors from benign lesions. The combination of cetuximab and CCRT was more effective for NPC than CCRT alone and had no serious side effects.

Journal: Is EGFR really a therapeutic target in head and neck cancers? (Pubmed Central) - Apr 18, 2019 Even though there was some success with Cetuximab, work with other EGFR inhibition has not been very fruitful and not really shown any promise. Mechanism of action of Cetuximab could be immune-mediated rather than EGFR inhibition and EGFR may not necessarily be a therapeutic target in SCCHN.

(Pubmed Central) - Apr 18, 2019 ...Nevertheless, to date platinum-based cytostatic agents remain the first line choice and targeting the epidermal growth factor-receptor (EGFR) with combined cetuximab and radiation therapy remains the only targeted therapy approved in the curative setting...Nivolumab and pembrolizumab, two anti-PD-1 antibodies, were the first agents shown to improve overall survival for patients with metastatic/recurrent tumors in recent years...A robust set of biomarkers will be an inevitable tool for future individualized treatment approaches including radiation dose de-escalation and escalation strategies. This review aims to summarize achieved goals, the current status and future perspectives regarding targeted therapies and ICI in the management of SCCHN.

Review, Journal, IO Biomarker: Selecting treatment options in refractory metastatic colorectal cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 18, 2019 Although most therapeutic developments for mCRC in the chemorefractory setting focuses on new targets and/or more potent agents, reconsideration of established targets has gained importance with the growth of a rational pharmacogenomic approach to drug development, such as HER2. The authors describe treatment options for patients with refractory colon cancer following first- and second-line therapy.

Journal: Co-delivery of paclitaxel and cetuximab by nanodiamond enhances mitotic catastrophe and tumor inhibition. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 17, 2019 Moreover, ND-PTX-Cet induced the mitotic marker protein phospho-histone 3 (Ser10) and apoptotic protein active-caspase 3 for mitotic catastrophe and apoptosis. Taken together, this study demonstrated that the co-delivery of PTX and Cet by ND enhanced the effects of mitotic catastrophe and apoptosis in vitro and in vivo, which may be applied in the human CRC therapy.

Journal: Optimizing Glioma Detection using an EGFR-Targeted Fluorescent Affibody. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 14, 2019 ...Uptake kinetics of EGFR-targeted fluorescent Affibody (ABY-029) were studied with a view toward optimizing efficacy of tumor detection in a glioma as a function of both delivered dose and concurrent administration of unlabeled cetuximab (an EGFR antagonist)...According to FDA, the microdose of protein products is considered ≤ 30 nanomoles due to its difference in molecular weight as compared to synthetic drugs. This observation indicates that glioma detection will be optimal if the ABY-029 dose exceeds the 'microdose' value.

Clinical, Journal: A Case of Advanced Sigmoid Colon Cancer That Was Resected after Chemoradiation Therapy Following Ineffective Chemotherapy (Pubmed Central) - Apr 13, 2019 Tumor shrinkage in the primary lesion was achieved after CRT; total pelvic exenteration with the removal of metastatic para-aortic lymph nodes was then performed 5 months after the first diagnosis. This case of locally distant advanced colon cancer in the pelvic cavity coexisting with resectable metastatic lesions suggested that CRTmight contribute to successful local treatment after the failure of preoperative chemotherapy.

Journal: The alpha-Gal syndrome: new insights into the tick-host conflict and cooperation. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 12, 2019 ...The conflict is characterized by the AGS that mediate delayed anaphylaxis to red meat consumption and certain drugs such as cetuximab, and immediate anaphylaxis to tick bites...Despite the growing diagnosis of AGS in all world continents, many questions remain to be elucidated on the tick proteins and immune mechanisms triggering this syndrome, and the protective response against pathogen infection elicited by anti-α-Gal antibodies. The answer to these questions will provide information for the evaluation of risks, diagnosis and prevention of the AGS, and the possibility of using the carbohydrate α-Gal to develop vaccines for the control of major infectious diseases.

Preclinical, Journal: A novel real-time proximity assay for characterizing multiple receptor interactions on living cells. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 11, 2019 Treated cells displayed 50% increased proximity signal, whereas the binding characteristics of the two antibodies were not significantly affected, implying an increase in EGFR-HER2 dimer level. These results demonstrate that real-time proximity interaction analysis enables determination of the interaction rate constants and affinity of two ligands while simultaneously quantifying their relative co-localization on living cells.

Biomarker, Clinical, Journal: Efficacy and Prognostic Factors of Cetuximab Therapy in Treating KRAS or All RAS Wild-type Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (Pubmed Central) - Apr 11, 2019 The median OS of the eight patients continuing cetuximab beyond first-line progression was 35.0(95%CI:23.6-46.4)months.Conclusions The efficacy of cetuximab for left-sided colorectal cancer was better than for right-sided colon cancer,and patients with all-RAS-WT have lower risk of progression than those with KRAS-only-WT. Patients benefiting from first-line cetuximab and continuing cetuximab beyond progression survive longer.

Biomarker, Review, Journal, PD(L)-1 Biomarker, IO Biomarker: Investigational multitargeted kinase inhibitors in development for head and neck neoplasms. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 5, 2019 The most promising clinical results have been obtained when m-TKIs are tested in combination with other therapies, including immunotherapy, or in mutation-defined subgroups of patients. The future success of m-TKIs will rely on identification, in preclinical models and clinical trials, of predictive biomarkers of response and mechanisms of innate and acquired resistance.
