Recent Clinical Update of Acute Myeloid Leukemia: Focus on Epigenetic Therapies.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a complicated disease characterized by genetic heterogeneity and simultaneous alterations in multiple genes. For decades, its only curative method has been intensive induction chemotherapy with or without allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, and this approach cannot be applied to elderly patients, who make up more than 50% of AML patients. Recent advances in genomics facilitated the elucidation of various mutations related to AML, and the most frequent mutations were discovered in epigenetic regulators. Alterations to epigenetic modifications that

Targeting P53 as a Future Strategy to Overcome Gemcitabine Resistance in Biliary Tract Cancers.

Gemcitabine-based chemotherapy is the current standard treatment for biliary tract cancers (BTCs) and resistance to gemcitabine remains the clinical challenge. TP53 mutation has been shown to be associated with poor clinicopathologic characteristics and survival in patients with BTCs, indicating that p53 plays an important role in the treatment of these cancers. Herein, we comprehensively reviewed previous BTC preclinical research and early clinical trials in terms of p53, as well as novel p53-targeted treatment, alone or in combination with either chemotherapy or other targeted therapies in B

Urgent considerations on renal immune-related adverse events in oncology practice.

In recent years, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have emerged as a critical component of hematological malignancies and solid malignant tumors therapy. However, clinical practice has revealed that these agents may induce immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Notably, renal irAEs stands out as a significant clinical concern, frequently necessitating treatment discontinuation and thereby enabling tumor progression. Renal irAEs constitutes a critical consideration for patients with cancer complicated by chronic kidney disease (CKD). This review systematically examines the immunologic pathoge

Update on Classic and Novel Approaches in Metastatic Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Treatment: A Comprehensive Review.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounts for almost 15% of all diagnosed breast cancers and often presents high rates of relapses and metastases, with generally poor prognosis despite multiple lines of treatment. Immunotherapy has radically changed the approach of clinicians towards TNBC in the last two to three years, even if targeted and specific therapeutic options are still missing; this unmet need is further justified by the extreme molecular and clinical heterogeneity of this subtype of breast cancer and by the weak response to both single-agent and combined therapies. In March 2023

Recent advances and challenges of cellular immunotherapies in lung cancer treatment.

Lung cancer is a major malignant tumor with high morbidity and fatality rates. For many years, traditional treatments for lung cancer have struggled to achieve a favorable outlook and prognosis. It is crucial to identify and innovate novel clinical therapeutic strategies and techniques to prevent tumor progression and prolong the survival time of patients with lung cancer. Cellular immunotherapies have revolutionized the treatment of malignant tumors and have been gradually applied in clinical practice. CAR-T therapy is the best-known cellular therapy and has achieved remarkable clinical outco

Tumour Immunotherapy and Applications of Immunological Products: A Review of Literature.

Malignant tumors, characterized by uncontrolled cell proliferation, are a leading global health challenge, responsible for over 9.7 million deaths in 2022, with new cases expected to rise to 35 million annually by 2050. Immunotherapy is preferred to other cancer therapies, offering precise targeting of malignant cells while simultaneously strengthening the immune system's complex responses. Advances in this novel field of science have been closely linked to a deeper knowledge of tumor biology, particularly the intricate interplay between tumor cells, the immune system, and the tumor microenvir

Current and Emerging Therapeutic Targets for the Treatment of Cholangiocarcinoma: An Updated Review.

Cholangiocarcinoma is a malignancy of the bile ducts that is often associated with late diagnosis, poor overall survival, and limited treatment options. The standard of care therapy for cholangiocarcinoma has been cytotoxic chemotherapy with modest improvements in overall survival with the addition of immune checkpoint inhibitors. The discovery of actionable mutations has led to the advent of targeted therapies against FGFR and IDH-1, which has expanded the treatment landscape for this patient population. Significant efforts have been made in the pre-clinical space to explore novel immunothera

The Emerging Role of Oncolytic Virotherapy in Glioblastoma Management.

Glioblastoma (GBM) is an aggressive and common form of central nervous system primary malignant tumor in adults. GBM accounts for about half of all gliomas. Despite maximal resection, radiotherapy, and temozolomide, median survival is still 12-15 months because of tumor heterogeneity, diffuse infiltration, and therapeutic resistance. Recurrence is nearly universal, underscoring the need for novel therapies. Oncolytic virotherapy demonstrates a promising strategy that combines direct tumor cell lysis with immune activation. Tumor-selective viruses replicate within malignant cells, induce cell d

Breakthroughs in modern cancer therapy and elusive cardiotoxicity: Critical research-practice gaps, challenges, and insights.

To date, five cancer treatment modalities have been defined. The three traditional modalities of cancer treatment are surgery, radiotherapy, and conventional chemotherapy, and the two modern modalities include molecularly targeted therapy (the fourth modality) and immunotherapy (the fifth modality). The cardiotoxicity associated with conventional chemotherapy and radiotherapy is well known. Similar adverse cardiac events are resurging with the fourth modality. Aside from the conventional and newer targeted agents, even the most newly developed, immune-based therapeutic modalities of anticancer

Exploiting artificial intelligence in precision oncology: an updated comprehensive review.

Precision oncology considers the genetic makeup of both the tumor and the cancer patient, medical history, clinical metadata, lifestyle and environmental factors. Thus, adoption of precision cancer medicine mandates sophisticated integrative analysis. Being a master in sorting and solving the puzzle pieces, artificial intelligence (AI)-powered frameworks emerged to fill the gap via executing multimodal analysis and generating meaningful outputs. Herein, we systematically discussed the opportunities and challenges of exploiting AI-assisted models in preclinical cancer research and in clinical o

Innovative Therapeutic Approaches in Primary Cutaneous B Cell Lymphoma.

Background: Primary cutaneous B-cell lymphomas (pCBCL) include an infrequent group of non-Hodgkin lymphomas that are limited to skin sites at the time of diagnosis. They comprise roughly 20-25% of all cutaneous lymphomas and are subdivided into primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma (PCMZL), primary cutaneous follicle center lymphoma (PCFCL), and primary cutaneous diffuse large cell B cell lymphoma, leg type (PCDLCBCL, LT). The first two show a rather indolent course while PCDLCBCL, LT carries a worse prognosis. Intravascular large cell B-cell lymphoma is the most infrequent subtype, and its

RSK inhibitor BI-D1870 inhibits acute myeloid leukemia cell proliferation by targeting mitotic exit.

The 90 kDa Ribosomal S6 Kinase (RSK) drives cell proliferation and survival in cancers, although its oncogenic mechanism has not been well characterized. Phosphorylated level of RSK (T573) was increased in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients and associated with poor survival. To examine the role of RSK in AML, we analyzed apoptosis and the cell cycle profile following treatment with BI-D1870, a potent inhibitor of RSK. BI-D1870 treatment increased the G2/M population and induced apoptosis in AML cell lines and patient AML cells. Characterization of mitotic phases showed that the metaphase/an

Mini-Review: Current Bladder Cancer Treatment-The Need for Improvement.

Bladder cancer is the tenth most common cancer and is a significant burden on health care services worldwide, as it is one of the most costly cancers to treat per patient. This expense is due to the extensive treatment and follow-ups that occur with costly and invasive procedures. Improvement in both treatment options and the quality of life these interventions offer has not progressed at the rates of other cancers, and new alternatives are desperately needed to ease the burden. A more modern approach needs to be taken, with urinary biomarkers being a positive step in making treatments more pa

Nuclear-Cytoplasmic Axis in Cancer: From Protein Mislocalization to Anticancer Drug Resistance.

Nucleocytoplasmic transport (NCT) regulates the spatial distribution of proteins and RNA between the nucleus and cytoplasm. NCT dysregulation can mislocalize tumor suppressors, DNA-repair factors, transcription factors, and drug targets in cancer. In this review, we conceptualize NCT-dependent protein mislocalization as a spatial regulatory framework for anticancer drug resistance, rather than as a catalogue of transport components. We systematically discuss how nuclear pore complex (NPC) remodeling, transport-receptor imbalance, post-translational modification (PTM)-regulated cargo routing, s

Circadian clock and cancer.

Circadian rhythms play a critical role in regulating physiological and behavioral processes, such as the sleep-wake cycle, hormone secretion, and metabolism. These rhythms are controlled by endogenous biological clocks, which are synchronized with environmental cues, primarily the light-dark cycle. Notably, disruption or reprogramming of circadian rhythms is closely associated with cancer initiation, progression, and treatment response. At the molecular level, the dysregulation of core clock genes can disturb normal cellular rhythms, leading to aberrant cell proliferation, impaired DNA repair,

Melphalan flufenamide inhibits osteoclastogenesis by suppressing proliferation of monocytes.

Myeloma bone disease is a major complication in multiple myeloma affecting quality of life and survival. It is characterized by increased activity of osteoclasts, bone resorbing cells. Myeloma microenvironment promotes excessive osteoclastogenesis, a process of production of osteoclasts from their precursors, monocytes. The effects of two anti-myeloma drugs, melphalan flufenamide (melflufen) and melphalan, on the activity and proliferation of osteoclasts and their progenitors, monocytes, were assessed in this study. In line with previous research, differentiation of monocytes was associated wi
