  • Advances and Limitations of Antibody Drug Conjugates for Cancer
    biomedicines Review Advances and Limitations of Antibody Drug Conjugates for Cancer Candice Maria Mckertish and Veysel Kayser * Sydney School of Pharmacy, Faculty of Medicine and Health, The University of Sydney, Sydney, NSW 2006, Australia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +61-2-9351-3391 Abstract: The popularity of antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) has increased in recent years, mainly due to their unrivalled efficacy and specificity over chemotherapy agents. The success of the ADC is partly based on the stability and successful cleavage of selective linkers for the delivery of the payload. The current research focuses on overcoming intrinsic shortcomings that impact the successful devel- opment of ADCs. This review summarizes marketed and recently approved ADCs, compares the features of various linker designs and payloads commonly used for ADC conjugation, and outlines cancer specific ADCs that are currently in late-stage clinical trials for the treatment of cancer. In addition, it addresses the issues surrounding drug resistance and strategies to overcome resistance, the impact of a narrow therapeutic index on treatment outcomes, the impact of drug–antibody ratio (DAR) and hydrophobicity on ADC clearance and protein aggregation.

  • Functional Genomics Approaches to Elucidate Vulnerabilities of Intrinsic and Acquired Chemotherapy Resistance

Abstract: Drug resistance is a commonly unavoidable consequence of cancer treatment that results in therapy failure and disease relapse. Intrinsic (pre-existing) or acquired resistance mechanisms can be drug-specific or be applicable to multiple drugs, resulting in multidrug resistance. The presence of drug resistance is, however, tightly coupled to changes in cellular homeostasis, which can lead to resistance-coupled vulnerabilities. Unbiased gene perturbations through RNAi and CRISPR technologies are invaluable tools to establish genotype-to-phenotype relationships at the genome scale. Moreover, their application to cancer cell lines can uncover new vulnerabilities that are associated with resistance mechanisms. Here, we discuss targeted and unbiased RNAi and CRISPR efforts in the discovery of drug resistance mechanisms by focusing on first-in-line chemotherapy and their enforced vulnerabilities, and we present a view forward on which measures should be taken to accelerate their clinical translation.

  • Intravenous Ascorbate and Oncologic Agents
    © PAUL S. ANDERSON 2013 INTRAVENOUS ASCORBATE AND ONCOLOGIC AGENTS Updated Data Review and Policies for concurrent use at Anderson Medical Specialty Associates, Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine Research Institute and Medical Center and Bastyr University Clinical Research Center Paul S. Anderson 05/01/2013 © Paul S. Anderson – All rights reserved – Reproduction and redistribution only allowed with proper attribution. Abstract: Intravenous application of ascorbic acid (IVAA) has a long history in adjunctive oncology communities. Its use has stimulated much debate regarding efficacy, safety and appropriate inclusion in oncologic practice. The potential for both antagonistic and synergistic interactions between IVAA and chemotherapies or radiation has existed for some time as an unanswered or confusing question in the naturopathic and allopathic oncology community. The purpose of this publication is to summarize and update the state of understanding of this complicated topic for clinicians employing either standard or integrative oncology care. INTRAVENOUS ASCORBATE AND ONCOLOGIC AGENTS Introduction: Intravenous ascorbate has been used in oncology practice by naturopathic and alternative allopathic physicians for decades. Published data regarding this therapy shows that it continues to be one of the most commonly employed alternative IV therapies. This popularity has both stimulated awareness of this therapy and concern regarding not only the safety and efficacy of IVAA in the oncology patient but also for the potential of antagonistic

  • The Influence of Cell Cycle Regulation on Chemotherapy
    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review The Influence of Cell Cycle Regulation on Chemotherapy Ying Sun 1, Yang Liu 1, Xiaoli Ma 2 and Hao Hu 1,* 1 Institute of Biomedical Materials and Engineering, College of Materials Science and Engineering, Qingdao University, Qingdao 266071, China; [email protected] (Y.S.); [email protected] (Y.L.) 2 Qingdao Institute of Measurement Technology, Qingdao 266000, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Cell cycle regulation is orchestrated by a complex network of interactions between proteins, enzymes, cytokines, and cell cycle signaling pathways, and is vital for cell proliferation, growth, and repair. The occurrence, development, and metastasis of tumors are closely related to the cell cycle. Cell cycle regulation can be synergistic with chemotherapy in two aspects: inhibition or promotion. The sensitivity of tumor cells to chemotherapeutic drugs can be improved with the cooperation of cell cycle regulation strategies. This review presented the mechanism of the commonly used chemotherapeutic drugs and the effect of the cell cycle on tumorigenesis and development, and the interaction between chemotherapy and cell cycle regulation in cancer treatment was briefly introduced. The current collaborative strategies of chemotherapy and cell cycle regulation are discussed in detail. Finally, we outline the challenges and perspectives about the improvement of combination strategies for cancer therapy.

  • Cisplatin, Gemcitabine, and Treosulfan in Relapsed Stage IV Cutaneous Malignant Melanoma Patients

Patients in relapse after first-, second-, or third-line therapy received 40 mg m intravenous (i.v.) À2 À2 Clinical Studies cisplatin, 1000 mg m i.v. gemcitabine, and 2500 mg m i.v. treosulfan on days 1 and 8. Cisplatin, gemcitabine, and treosulfan therapy was repeated every 5 weeks until progression of disease occurred. A maximum of 11 CGT cycles (mean, two cycles) was administered per patient. Four patients (4%) showed a partial response; 15 (17%) patients had stable disease; and 72 (79%) patients progressed upon first re-evaluation. Overall survival of all 91 patients was 6 months (2-year survival rate, 7%). Patients with partial remission or stable disease exhibited a median overall survival of 11 months (2-year survival rate, 36%), while patients with disease progression upon first re-evaluation had a median overall survival of 5 months (2-year survival rate, 0%). Treatment with CGT was efficient in one-fifth of the pretreated relapsed stage IV melanoma patients achieving disease stabilisation or partial remission with prolonged but limited survival.
