Journal: Computer-Aided Identification and Design of Ligands for Multi-Targeting Inhibition of a Molecular Acute Myeloid Leukemia Network. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 15, 2024 Overall, by integrating network and structural pharmacology with molecular modeling, we determined two complementary strategies with the potential to annihilate the AML network, one in the form of repurposable drug combinations and the other as a de novo synthesized triple-targeting agent. These target-drug interactions could be prioritized for preclinical and clinical testing toward precision medicine for AML.

Journal: Buparlisib and ponatinib inhibit aggressiveness of cholangiocarcinoma cells via suppression of IRS1-related pathway by targeting oxidative stress resistance. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 13, 2024 Additionally, the drug combination significantly diminished the expression of YAP1, the cell proliferation marker and an antioxidant regulator, and increased oxidative stress-responsive markers in the xenograft model. In conclusion, targeting oxidative stress resistance with combined buparlisib and ponatinib suppressed tumor growth and migration by repressing IRS1-related pathways and ultimately inducing oxidative damage, suggesting the potential for targeted therapy and clinical trials in CCA patients over the use of a single drug.

Journal: APMCG-1 attenuates ischemic stroke injury by reducing oxidative stress and apoptosis and promoting angiogenesis via activating PI3K/AKT pathway. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 13, 2024 This study investigated APMCG-1's remedial mechanisms against IS injury using an H2O2-induced oxidative stress paradigm in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) emulating ischemic endothelial cells, in a ponatinib-induced zebrafish IS model, and in rat middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) prototypes...In cells and animal models, APMCG-1 activated the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, modulating factors such as Nrf2, Bcl-2, Caspase 3, eNOS, and VEGFA, thereby ameliorating cellular oxidative distress and catalyzing angiogenesis. Collectively, these results demonstrate the potential protective effects of APMCG-1 in IS pharmacotherapy and its prospective utility as an herbal-derived IS treatment modality.

(Pubmed Central) - Nov 13, 2024 It reduced the ponatinib-induced cerebral thrombus area and decreased the intensity of erythrocyte staining. The qPCR data showed that the anti-thrombotic effect of PTS was mediated by suppression of genes related to coagulation, inflammation and apoptosis, and also involved inhibition of NF-?B and PI3K/Akt pathways.

Ponatinib Safety Profile: An Analysis of 10 Years of Real-World Experience (Halls G-H (San Diego Convention Center)) - Nov 6, 2024 - Abstract #ASH2024ASH_6239; Our study findings suggest the safety profile of ponatinib has improved since it first became commercially available, with improvements likely attributable to the implementation of risk management measures and increasing knowledge of ponatinib among clinicians. Despite the potential limitations of this analysis, such as underreporting of AEs, the Weber effect (ie, reporting bias associated with increased reporting of AEs during the initial period following a drug's regulatory approval), and the use of estimated patient exposure, our results show that the introduction of measures designed to minimize the risks related to ponatinib use was associated with improved safety among patients receiving ponatinib.

Efforts to optimize treatment regimens, such as novel chemotherapy-free regimens in elderly and frail pts, and improved access to novel therapies, are critically needed in Ph+ B-ALL to replicate the success observed in clinical trials in a real-world population.

Conclusions Olverembatinib showed a favorable CR rate and good tolerance in the treatment MLN-FGFR1, potentially enabling allo-HSCT in greater numbers of eligible patients.

Conclusions We revealed the characteristics and dynamic changes of immune cell subsets under the heterogeneous treatment response patterns of 3G-TKI, and identified a subgroup (C1) with the unique immune-related signature associated with worse outcomes in CML patients receiving 3G-TKI therapy, which is a promising biomarker to distinguish the prognosis, the molecular and immune characteristics.

55% of young patients received imatinib as first-line TKI, followed by nilotinib (27.5%) and dasatinib (17.5%)...Third line TKI was received by 9/22 (22.5%): 3 asciminib, 1 bosutinib, 4 ponatinib, 1 dasatinib...There was no difference in the TFR rates or duration of TFR for young patients who discontinued TKI. This is an important result as young patients would benefit from discontinuing therapy to limit the potential side effects of TKI treatment on development, and reduce the toxicity and adverse effects due to the prolonged exposure to TKIs from an early age.

BCR::ABL1 mutation acquisition rates appears similar to second generation TKIs in the frontline setting; these were mostly myristoyl pocket mutations which have so far responded well to salvage with DAS.
