C3(1)/SV40 T-antigen (C3-TAg) transgenic mice on an FVB genetic background develop tumors with molecular and pathologic features that closely resemble human TNBC, but FVB mice are resistant to diet-induced obesity (DIO). Herein, we sought to develop transplantable C3-TAg cell lines syngeneic to C57BL/6 mice, an inbred mouse strain that is sensitive to DIO. We backcrossed FVB-Tg(C3-1-TAg)cJeg/JegJ to C57BL/6 mice for ten generations, and spontaneous tumors from those mice were excised and used to generate four clonal cell lines (B6TAg1.02, B6TAg2.03, B6TAg2.10, and B6TAg2.51). We characterized the growth of the four cell lines in both lean and DIO C57BL/6J female mice and performed transcriptomic profiling. Each cell line was readily tumorigenic and had transcriptional profiles that clustered as claudin-low, yet markedly differed from each other in their rate of tumor progression and transcriptomic signatures for key metabolic, immune, and oncogenic signaling pathways. DIO accelerated tumor growth of orthotopically transplanted B6TAg1.02, B6TAg2.03, and B6TAg2.51 cells. Thus, the B6TAg cell lines described herein offer promising and diverse new models to augment the study of DIO-associated TNBC.","PeriodicalId":504676,"journal":{"name":"Cancers","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141922616","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our prior high-throughput RNAi screening identified Aurora kinase A (AURKA) as a potential key player in cisplatin resistance. In this study, we investigated AURKA’s role in platinum and radiation sensitivity in multiple NSCLC cell lines and xenograft mouse models, as well as its effect on immune checkpoints, including PD-L1, B7x, B7-H3, and HHLA2. Of 94 NSCLC patient tumor specimens, 91.5% tested positive for AURKA expression, with 34% showing moderate-to-high levels. AURKA expression was upregulated following cisplatin treatment in NSCLC cell lines PC9 and A549. Both AURKA inhibition by alisertib and inducible AURKA knockdown potentiated the cytotoxic effects of cisplatin and radiation, leading to tumor regression in doxycycline-inducible xenograft mice. Co-treated cells exhibited increased DNA double-strand breaks, apoptosis, and senescence. Additionally, AURKA inhibition alone by alisertib increased PD-L1 and B7-H3 expression. In conclusion, our study demonstrates that AURKA inhibition enhances the efficacy of platinum-based chemotherapy in NSCLC cells and modulates the expression of multiple immune checkpoints. Therefore, combinatory regimens with AURKA inhibitors should be strategically designed and further studied within the evolving landscape of chemo-immunotherapy.","PeriodicalId":504676,"journal":{"name":"Cancers","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141921229","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to investigate the performance and the safety of totally implantable vascular access devices (TIVADs) over a 5-year follow-up period through a standardized well-trained surgical technique and patient management under local anesthesia. Methods: In a retrospective, observational, and monocentric study, 70 patients receiving POLYSITE® TIVADs for chemotherapy were included. The safety endpoints focused on the rate of perioperative, short-term, and long-term complications. The performance endpoints included vein identification for device insertion and procedural success rate. Results: The study demonstrated no perioperative or short-term complications related to the TIVADs. One (1.4%) complication related to device manipulation was identified as catheter flipping, which led to catheter adjustment 56 days post-placement. Moreover, one (1.4%) infection due to usage conditions was observed, leading to TIVAD removal 3 years and 4 months post-surgery. Catheter placement occurred in cephalic veins (71.4%), subclavian veins (20%), and internal jugular veins (8.6%). The procedural success rate was 100%. Overall, the implantable ports typically remained in place for an average of 22.4 months. Conclusions: This study confirmed the TIVADs’ performance and safety, underscored by low complication rates compared to published data, thereby emphasizing its potential and compelling significance for enhancing routine clinical practice using a standardized well-trained surgical technique and patient management.","PeriodicalId":504676,"journal":{"name":"Cancers","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141925170","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Irradiation has an immunomodulatory effect that can manifest as increased anti-tumor immunity or immunosuppression. Irradiation promotes an inflammatory microenvironment through the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and endothelial damage, which recruit immune system cells to the irradiated area. Radiation-induced immunogenic cell death (ICD), characterized by the release of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) and tumor antigens, triggers an anti-tumor immune response of both innate and adaptive immunity. Anti-tumor immunity can manifest at a distance from the irradiated area, a phenomenon known as the abscopal effect (AE), which involves dendritic cells and CD8+ T cells. Irradiation also produces an immunosuppressive effect mediated by tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) and regulatory T lymphocytes (Tregs), which counterbalances the immunostimulatory effect. In this work, we review the mechanisms involved in the radiation-induced immune response, which support the combined treatment of RT and immunotherapy, focusing, where possible, on gynecologic cancer.","PeriodicalId":504676,"journal":{"name":"Cancers","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141924666","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study evaluates the outcomes of pre-emptive laparoscopic colostomy creation in patients with locally advanced rectal and anal cancer to prevent symptoms and facilitate therapy initiation. Methods: This retrospective cohort study includes patients with locally advanced rectal or anal cancer assessed by our Colorectal Multidisciplinary Team from January 2017 to February 2024. Patients who underwent pre-emptive laparoscopic colostomy were compared to a control group of non-obstructing rectal cancer patients who started direct oncological treatment. The primary endpoint was the time from diagnosis to the initiation of oncological treatments. The secondary endpoints were the rate and timing of subsequent radical resection, surgical morbidity and hospital stay. A Weibull regression was used to evaluate the time differences between the groups. Results: There were 37 patients who received pre-emptive laparoscopic colostomy, compared to 207 control patients. The mean time from diagnosis to the start of neoadjuvant therapy was 38.3 ± 2.3 days. Despite higher rates of malnutrition and more advanced stages in the colostomy group, no significant differences were observed in the time to start therapy (p = 0.083) or time to radical resection (p = 0.187) between the groups. The laparoscopic procedure showed low rates of postoperative complications and acceptable lengths of stay. Discussion and Conclusions: Pre-emptive laparoscopic colostomy is a feasible approach for managing obstructing rectal or anal cancer. Treatment timelines were not extended compared to timelines for non-obstructing cases, despite differences in nutritional status and staging. Further prospective studies with larger cohorts are needed to validate these findings and refine treatment protocols for obstructing gastrointestinal malignancies.","PeriodicalId":504676,"journal":{"name":"Cancers","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141927919","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

CCR2 protein expression was detected in prostate cancer cells and was associated with prostate-specific antigen serum concentration (p = 0.045). However, neither CCL2 nor CCR2 tissue expression could predict prostate cancer progression, or other clinicopathological parameters including perineural invasion and patient outcome. In serum samples, CCL2 concentration at the time of diagnosis, as assayed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, was significantly higher in patients with prostate cancer compared with benign prostatic hyperplasia (median difference 0.22 ng/mL, 95% CI, 0.17–0.30) (p < 0.0001) and normal controls (median difference 0.13 ng/mL, 95% CI, 0.13–0.17) (p < 0.0001). However, circulating CCL2 was not statistically significant as a predictor of disease progression and patient outcome.

This review emphasizes the crucial role of the tumour microenvironment (TME) and inflammatory cytokines in promoting tumour progression and response to tumour cell targeting agents. IL-8, acting through C-X-C chemokine receptor type 1 (CXCR1) and type 2 (CXCR2), modulates multiple signalling pathways, enhancing the angiogenesis, proliferation, and migration of cancer cells. This review highlights the shift in PCa research focus from solely tumour cells to the non-cancer-cell components, including vascular endothelial cells, the extracellular matrix, immune cells, and the dynamic interactions within the TME. The immunosuppressive nature of the PCa TME significantly influences tumour progression and resistance to emerging therapies. Current treatment modalities, including androgen deprivation therapy and chemotherapeutics, encounter persistent resistance and are complicated by prostate cancer’s notably “immune-cold” nature, which limits immune system response to the tumour. These challenges underscore the critical need for novel approaches that both overcome resistance and enhance immune engagement within the TME. The therapeutic potential of inhibiting IL-8 signalling is explored, with studies showing enhanced sensitivity of PCa cells to treatments, including radiation and androgen receptor inhibitors. Clinical trials, such as the ACE trial, demonstrate the efficacy of combining CXCR2 inhibitors with existing treatments, offering significant benefits, especially for patients with resistant PCa. This review also addresses the challenges in targeting cytokines and chemokines, noting the complexity of the TME and the need for precision in therapeutic targeting to avoid side effects and optimize outcomes.","PeriodicalId":504676,"journal":{"name":"Cancers","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141927424","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With this objective, a prospective observational study was designed, including a cohort of 55 patients with NSCLC who received ICIs. We studied whether biomarkers such as TCRβ and specific cytokines involved in the regulation of T cell activity were related to the immunotherapy response. In the survival analysis, it was found that patients with higher TCRβ clonality, lower TCRβ evenness, higher TCRβ Shannon diversity and lower TCRβ convergence had higher overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). However, no statistically significant association was observed. Regarding cytokines, those patients with higher levels of IL-2 and IL-15 presented statistically significantly shorter OS and PFS, respectively.

Biomarkers predicting responses are needed. Biopsies from 35 SCLC patients treated with ICB were subjected to transcriptomic analysis; gene signatures were assessed for associations with responses. Twenty-one patients were treated with ICB in the first-line setting in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy; fourteen patients were treated in the second-line setting with ICB alone. DCB after ICB in SCLC in the second-line setting (3 of 14 patients) was associated with statistically higher transcriptomic levels of genes associated with inflammation (p = 0.003), antigen presentation machinery (p = 0.03), interferon responses (p < 0.05), and increased CD8 T cells (p = 0.02). In contrast, these gene signatures were not significantly different in the first-line setting. Our data suggest that responses to ICB in SCLC in the second-line setting can be predicted by the baseline inflammatory state of the tumor; however, this strong association with inflammation was not seen in the first-line setting.
