  • Predictive QSAR Tools to Aid in Early Process Development of Monoclonal Antibodies
    Predictive QSAR tools to aid in early process development of monoclonal antibodies John Micael Andreas Karlberg Published work submitted to Newcastle University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Engineering November 2019 Abstract Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have become one of the fastest growing markets for diagnostic and therapeutic treatments over the last 30 years with a global sales revenue around $89 billion reported in 2017. A popular framework widely used in pharmaceutical industries for designing manufacturing processes for mAbs is Quality by Design (QbD) due to providing a structured and systematic approach in investigation and screening process parameters that might influence the product quality. However, due to the large number of product quality attributes (CQAs) and process parameters that exist in an mAb process platform, extensive investigation is needed to characterise their impact on the product quality which makes the process development costly and time consuming. There is thus an urgent need for methods and tools that can be used for early risk-based selection of critical product properties and process factors to reduce the number of potential factors that have to be investigated, thereby aiding in speeding up the process development and reduce costs. In this study, a framework for predictive model development based on Quantitative Structure- Activity Relationship (QSAR) modelling was developed to link structural features and properties of mAbs to Hydrophobic Interaction Chromatography (HIC) retention times and expressed mAb yield from HEK cells. Model development was based on a structured approach for incremental model refinement and evaluation that aided in increasing model performance until becoming acceptable in accordance to the OECD guidelines for QSAR models.

  • Assessment for Clinical Trial Eligibility Testing in a Molecular Registry (PRAEGNANT) in Germany Hanna Huebner1†, Christian M
    Huebner et al. BMC Cancer (2020) 20:1091 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12885-020-07546-1 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Heregulin (HRG) assessment for clinical trial eligibility testing in a molecular registry (PRAEGNANT) in Germany Hanna Huebner1†, Christian M. Kurbacher2†, Geoffrey Kuesters3, Andreas D. Hartkopf4, Michael P. Lux5, Jens Huober6, Bernhard Volz7, Florin-Andrei Taran8, Friedrich Overkamp9, Hans Tesch10, Lothar Häberle1,11, Diana Lüftner12, Markus Wallwiener13, Volkmar Müller14, Matthias W.

Brucker4, Andreas Schneeweiss19 and Johannes Ettl20 Abstract Background: Eligibility criteria are a critical part of clinical trials, as they define the patient population under investigation. Besides certain patient characteristics, clinical trials often include biomarker testing for eligibility. However, patient-identification mostly relies on the trial site itself and is often a time-consuming procedure, which could result in missing out on potentially eligible patients. Pre-selection of those patients using a registry could facilitate the process of eligibility testing and increase the number of identified patients. One aim with the PRAEGN ANT registry (NCT02338167) is to identify patients for therapies based on clinical and molecular data. Here, we report eligibility testing for the SHERBOC trial using the German PRAEGNANT registry. Methods: Heregulin (HRG) has been reported to identify patients with better responses to therapy with the anti- HER3 monoclonal antibody seribantumab (MM-121). The SHERBOC trial investigated adding seribantumab (MM-121) to standard therapy in patients with advanced HER2-negative, hormone receptor–positive (HR-positive) breast cancer and HRG overexpression.

This has led to the development of several therapeutic strategies focused in this direction. However, a high percentage of lung cancer patients do not respond to these therapies or their responses are transient. Here, we summarized the impact of immunotherapy on lung cancer patients in the latest clinical trials conducted on this disease. As well as the mechanisms of primary and acquired resistance to immunotherapy in this disease. Abstract: After several decades without maintained responses or long-term survival of patients with lung cancer, novel therapies have emerged as a hopeful milestone in this research field.

  • Advanced Development of Erbb Family-Targeted Therapies in Osteosarcoma Treatment
    Investigational New Drugs (2019) 37:175–183 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10637-018-0684-8 REVIEW Advanced development of ErbB family-targeted therapies in osteosarcoma treatment Wei Wang1 & Hua-fu Zhao2 & Teng-fei Yao1 & Hao Gong1 Received: 19 August 2018 /Accepted: 16 October 2018 /Published online: 24 October 2018 # Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2018 Summary Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common primary aggressive and malignant bone tumor. Newly diagnostic OS patients benefit from the standard therapy including surgical resection plus radiotherapy and neoadjuvant chemotherapy (MAP chemotherapy: high-dose methotrexate, doxorubicin and cisplatin). However, tumor recurrence and metastasis give rise to a sharp decline of the 5-year overall survival rate in OS patients. Little improvement has been made for decades, urging the development of more effective therapeutic approaches. ErbB receptor family including EGFR, HER2, HER3 and HER4, being important to the activation of PI3K/Akt and MAPK signaling pathways, are potential targets for OS treatment. Genetic aberrations (amplification, overexpression, mutation and altered splicing) of ErbB are essential to the growth, apoptosis, motility and metastasis in a variety of cancers. Overexpression of ErbB family is associated with the poor prognosis of cancer patients. A number of monoclonal antibodies or inhibitors specific for ErbB family have entered clinical trials in a range of solid tumors including breast carcinoma, lung carcinoma and sarcoma. Here, we summarized

  • And Emerging, Pivotal Signalling Pathways in Metastatic Breast Cancer
    REVIEW British Journal of Cancer (2017) 116, 10–20 | doi: 10.1038/bjc.2016.405 Keywords: breast cancer; aromatase inhibitor; mTOR inhibitor; PI3K inhibitor; CDK4/6 inhibitor; anastrozole; letrozole; exemestane Cotargeting of CYP-19 (aromatase) and emerging, pivotal signalling pathways in metastatic breast cancer Stine Daldorff1, Randi Margit Ruud Mathiesen1, Olav Erich Yri1, Hilde Presterud Ødegård1 and Ju¨ rgen Geisler*,1,2 1Department of Oncology, Akershus University Hospital (AHUS), Lørenskog N-1478, Norway and 2Institute of Clinical Medicine, University of Oslo, Campus AHUS, Oslo N-0313, Norway Aromatase inhibition is one of the cornerstones of modern endocrine therapy of oestrogen receptor-positive (ER þ ) metastatic breast cancer (MBC). The nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitors anastrozole and letrozole, as well as the steroidal aromatase inactivator exemestane, are the preferred drugs and established worldwide in all clinical phases of the disease. However, although many patients suffering from MBC experience an initial stabilisation of their metastatic burden, drug resistance and disease progression occur frequently, following in general only a few months on treatment. Extensive translational research during the past two decades has elucidated the major pathways contributing to endocrine resistance and paved the way for clinical studies investigating the efficacy of novel drug combinations involving aromatase inhibitors and emerging drugable targets like mTOR, PI3K and CDK4/6. The present review summarises the basic research that
