Clinical, Journal, Checkpoint inhibition: Safety and Efficacy of Cetuximab-Based Salvage Chemotherapy After Checkpoint Inhibitors in Head and Neck Cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 7, 2021 In most patients, SCAI consisted of weekly, well-tolerated regimens. These observations have implications for current practice due to the limited evidence to date in SCCHN and the scant therapeutic options in this disease, and invite to elucidate which may be the best treatment sequence for head and neck cancer patients in the IO era.

Journal: Cav1/EREG/YAP Axis in the Treatment Resistance of Cav1-Expressing Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 4, 2021 The EGFR-targeting antibody cetuximab (CTX) combined with radiotherapy is the only targeted therapy that has been proven effective for the treatment of locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (LA-HNSCC)...Patients whose tumors overexpressed Cav1 experienced regional recurrence a few years after adjuvant radiotherapy ± chemotherapy. Together, our observations suggest that a high expression of Cav1 might be predictive of locoregional relapse of LA-HNSCC.

Clinical, Journal: High-Density of FcγRIIIA (CD16) Tumor-Associated Neutrophils in Metastases Improves the Therapeutic Response of Cetuximab in Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Patients, Independently of the HLA-E/CD94-NKG2A Axis. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 3, 2021 Altogether, these results strongly support the use of bispecific antibodies directed against both EGFR and FcγRIIIA (CD16) in mCRC patients, to boost cetuximab-mediated ADCC in RAS wild-type mCRC patients. The preferential overexpression of HLA-E/β2m in metastases, associated with CD94 TILs and responsible for a poor prognosis, provides convincing arguments to inhibit this new immune checkpoint with monalizumab, a humanized anti-NKG2A antibody, in combination with anti- FcγRIIIA/EGFR bispecific antibodies as a promising therapeutic perspective in RAS wild-type mCRC patients.

Journal: Neoplastic meningitis due to colorectal cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 30, 2021 The progression of neoplastic meningitis is fast and it has a poor prognosis. Diagnosis in the early stages is important to prevent progression of neurological symptoms and to provide the most effective treatment.

Journal, PD(L)-1 Biomarker, IO biomarker: Tumor-Specific Antibody, Cetuximab, Enhances the In Situ Vaccine Effect of Radiation in Immunologically Cold Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 30, 2021 These findings suggest an opportunity to improve the treatment of HNSCC by combining radiation and cetuximab to engage an innate anti-tumor immune response that may prime an effective adaptive immune response when combined with immune checkpoint blockade. It is possible that this approach could be extended to any immunologically cold tumor that does not respond to immune checkpoint blockade alone and for which a tumor-specific antibody exists or could be developed.

Journal: Cancer cell-specific protein delivery by optoporation with laser-irradiated gold nanorods. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 24, 2021 GNRs were labeled with the anti-EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor) antibody Erbitux to target human ovarian carcinoma cells OVCAR-3...As a result of the irradiation, the uptake of an anti-Ki-67 antibody was observed in about 50 % of the cells. The results of fluorescence lifetime imaging show that the GNR detached from the membrane after irradiation.

Clindamycin may be preferred as a topical treatment, and doxycycline may be preferred as a systematic treatment.

Preclinical, Journal: A systematic comparison of label-free, SILAC and TMT techniques to study early adaption towards inhibition of EGFR signaling in the colorectal cancer cell line Difi. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 22, 2021 We analyzed the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling network, which plays an essential role in colorectal cancer, and studied its dynamics within 24 h upon treatment with the EGFR-blocking antibody cetuximab, representing the first cellular adaption toward therapy...These dynamics represented an initial downregulation of the MAPK pathway, which was partially rescued as soon as 24 h after treatment. We identified upregulation and signaling via ERBB3 as well as calcium and cAMP signaling as possible mechanisms bypassing the blockage of EGFR.
