  • PI3K Inhibitors in Cancer: Clinical Implications and Adverse Effects
    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review PI3K Inhibitors in Cancer: Clinical Implications and Adverse Effects Rosalin Mishra , Hima Patel, Samar Alanazi , Mary Kate Kilroy and Joan T. Garrett * Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, College of Pharmacy, University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, OH 45267-0514, USA; [email protected] (R.M.); [email protected] (H.P.); [email protected] (S.A.); [email protected] (M.K.K.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-513-558-0741; Fax: +1-513-558-4372 Abstract: The phospatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) pathway is a crucial intracellular signaling pathway which is mutated or amplified in a wide variety of cancers including breast, gastric, ovarian, colorectal, prostate, glioblastoma and endometrial cancers. PI3K signaling plays an important role in cancer cell survival, angiogenesis and metastasis, making it a promising therapeutic target. There are several ongoing and completed clinical trials involving PI3K inhibitors (pan, isoform-specific and dual PI3K/mTOR) with the goal to find efficient PI3K inhibitors that could overcome resistance to current therapies. This review focuses on the current landscape of various PI3K inhibitors either as monotherapy or in combination therapies and the treatment outcomes involved in various phases of clinical trials in different cancer types. There is a discussion of the drug-related toxicities, challenges associated with these PI3K inhibitors and the adverse events leading to treatment failure. In addition, novel PI3K drugs that have potential to be translated in the clinic are highlighted.

  • Pharmacokinetics and Exposure-Response Relationship of Teprotumumab Frst 3 Months, Unless Determined to Be Medically Necessary
    Clinical Pharmacokinetics https://doi.org/10.1007/s40262-021-01003-3 ORIGINAL RESEARCH ARTICLE Pharmacokinetics and Exposure‑Response Relationship of Teprotumumab, an Insulin‑Like Growth Factor‑1 Receptor‑Blocking Antibody, in Thyroid Eye Disease Yan Xin1 · Fengyan Xu2 · Yuying Gao2 · Nivedita Bhatt1 · Jason Chamberlain1 · Saba Sile1 · Suzy Hammel1 · Robert J. Holt1 · Srini Ramanathan1 Accepted: 10 February 2021 © The Author(s) 2021 Abstract Background and Objective Thyroid eye disease (TED) is characterized by infammation/expansion of orbital tissues, prop- tosis, and diplopia. Teprotumumab is the frst US Food and Drug Administration-approved therapy for TED, administered as an initial intravenous infusion of 10 mg/kg followed by 20 mg/kg every 3 weeks for an additional seven infusions. The objec- tive of this article is to discuss the pharmacokinetics and exposure-response profle for teprotumumab in patients with TED. Methods A population pharmacokinetic analysis was performed to characterize pharmacokinetics and select dosing in patients with TED. Exposure-response was evaluated for efcacy (proptosis response, clinical activity score categorical response, and diplopia response) and safety (hyperglycemia, muscle spasms, and hearing impairment) parameters. Results Teprotumumab pharmacokinetics was linear in patients with TED, with low systemic clearance (0.334 L/day), low volume of distribution (3.9 and 4.2 L for the central and peripheral compartment, respectively), and a long elimination half- life (19.9 days). The approved dosing regimen provided > 20 µg/mL for > 90% insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor saturation throughout the dosing interval. Model-predicted mean (± standard deviation) steady-state area under the concentration-time curve, peak, and trough concentrations in patients with TED were 131 (± 30.9) mg∙h/mL, 643 (± 130) µg/mL, and 157 (± 50.6) µg/mL, respectively.

The guest editors for this section were Derek LeRoith and Emily Gallagher. Abstract The insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system has gained substantial interest due to its Key Words involvement in regulating cell proliferation, differentiation and survival during anoikis f sarcomas and after conventional and targeted therapies. However, results from clinical trials have f IGF system been largely disappointing, with only a few but notable exceptions, such as trials targeting f targeted therapy sarcomas, especially Ewing sarcoma. This review highlights key studies focusing on IGF f clinical trials signaling in sarcomas, specifically studies underscoring the properties that make this system an attractive therapeutic target and identifies new relationships that may be exploited. This review discusses the potential roles of IGF2 mRNA-binding proteins (IGF2BPs), discoidin domain receptors (DDRs) and metalloproteinase pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) in regulating the IGF system. Deeper investigation of these novel regulators of the IGF system may help us to further elucidate the spatial and temporal control of the IGF Journal of Molecular axis, as understanding the control of this axis is essential for future clinical studies.
