  • CDK4/6 and MAPK—Crosstalk As Opportunity for Cancer Treatment
    pharmaceuticals Review CDK4/6 and MAPK—Crosstalk as Opportunity for Cancer Treatment Lisa Scheiblecker, Karoline Kollmann and Veronika Sexl * Institute of Pharmacology and Toxicology, University of Veterinary Medicine Vienna, 1210 Vienna, Austria; [email protected] (L.S.); [email protected] (K.K.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 24 October 2020; Accepted: 22 November 2020; Published: 24 November 2020 Abstract: Despite the development of targeted therapies and novel inhibitors, cancer remains an undefeated disease. Resistance mechanisms arise quickly and alternative treatment options are urgently required, which may be partially met by drug combinations. Protein kinases as signaling switchboards are frequently deregulated in cancer and signify vulnerable nodes and potential therapeutic targets. We here focus on the cell cycle kinase CDK6 and on the MAPK pathway and on their interplay. We also provide an overview on clinical studies examining the effects of combinational treatments currently explored for several cancer types. Keywords: CDK6; MAPK; p38; combinational; palbociclib; inhibitors; cancer 1. Introduction Tumorigenesis requires that cells hijack regulatory networks to obtain their full oncogenic potential. The MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) pathway is a tightly regulated signaling cascade frequently mutated or deregulated in cancer. Extra- and intracellular stimuli activate the MAPK cascade that regulates a broad variety of cellular programs including proliferation, differentiation, stress responses and apoptosis [1]. The best-studied MAPK pathways are the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and stress-activated MAPK (c-Jun N-terminal kinase JNK and p38) pathways (Figure1). While the ERK pathway is predominantly activated by growth factors to drive survival and cell growth, activation of the JNK or p38 pathway is accomplished by environmental stressors and inflammatory cytokines and is associated with apoptosis and growth inhibition [1].

Pharmacological inhibitors of these kinases function to inhibit cell cycle progression and exert other important effects on the tumor and host environment. Due to their impact on the cell cycle, CDK4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) have been hypothesized to antagonize the anti-tumor effects of cytotoxic chemotherapy in tumors that are CDK4/6 dependent.

Introduction Chemotherapy, often called chemo, is cancer treatment that uses drugs. Radiation and surgery treat one area of cancer. But chemo usually travels through the bloodstream to treat the whole body. Treating the whole body is called a systemic treatment. The goal of chemo is to either treat cancer or ease its symptoms. Treating cancer can be to cure it, decrease the chance it will return, or stop or slow its growth. Easing cancer symptoms without trying to cure the cancer is called palliative therapy. Chemotherapy drugs can be used in many different ways. Chemo can make a tumor smaller before surgery or radiation, destroy cancer cells that surgery or radiation didn’t treat, help other treatments work better, or kill cancer cells that have come back or spread. Chemotherapy is given in different ways. This includes by mouth (oral), through a vein (intravenous), by a shot (injection), or with a cream rubbed onto the skin (topical). In some cases, chemo is injected between the layers of tissue covering the brain and spinal cord (intrathecal), is given into the belly area (intraperitoneal), or is injected into an artery (intra-arterial).
