[Advances in Association of Estrogen and Human Non-small Cell Lung Cancer].

ABSTRACT: Lung cancer, of which approximately 85% are non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), is the most leading cause of cancer mortality throughout the world. Despite recent improvements in its treatment, it still remains a highly lethal disease. It is becoming increasingly clear that estrogen and estrogen receptors are involve in the pathogenesis and development of lung cancer. Estrogen receptor modulators and aromatase inhibitor may reverse the drug-resistance of platinum based chemotherapy in NSCLC patients and can enhance curative effect of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor. In this article the progress in the function of estrogen in NSCLC and the treatment based on the ER signaling pathways for NSCLC is reviewed.

New advances in immunotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer.

Project description:Immunotherapy is one of the methods that can change the survival rate of patients with malignant tumors, in addition to surgery therapy, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and targeted therapy. Among various immunotherapy methods, immunoprecipitation inhibitors have been the most effective medications developed in recent years. At present, more in-depth studies have been conducted for two immune checkpoint inhibitor pathways, programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1)/Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4), and a variety of medications for those above mentioned. The present study briefly reviews the results of clinical trials for relevant immune checkpoint inhibitors in lung cancer.

Recent advances in immunotherapy for non-small-cell lung cancer.

Project description:Despite of recent development in the field of molecular targeted therapies, lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer death in the world. Remarkable progress has been made recently in immunotherapy for patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), with several modalities, concepts, and treatment settings being investigated. In vaccine development, large-scale clinical trials such as those with L-BLP25, belagenpumatucel-L, TG4010, and talactoferrin are already ongoing and some results have been reported. A trial of a vaccine as adjuvant therapy for patients with completely resected NSCLC is also ongoing with one of the major cancer-testis antigens, melanoma-associated antigen (MAGE)-A3. More recently, the effectiveness of multiple peptide vaccines has also been shown. Recently developed unique treatment modalities are the immune checkpoint inhibitors, such as antibodies against PD-1 and PD-L1, which also show promise. However, although therapeutic cancer vaccines are generally thought to be safe, severe adverse events should be monitored carefully when using immune checkpoint inhibitors. Here, we discuss recent advances and future perspectives of immunotherapy for patients with NSCLC.

The role of estrogen, progesterone and aromatase in human non-small-cell lung cancer.

Project description:Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in both men and women worldwide. Despite advances in treatment, patients have few effective therapeutic options and survival rates remain low. Emerging evidence suggests that the hormones estrogen and progesterone play a key role in the progression of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The aromatase enzyme, which is responsible for a key step in estrogen biosynthesis, elicits higher levels of estrogen in lung tumors as well as in metastases compared with nonmalignant tissues. Thus, aromatase may prove to be a key predictive biomarker for treatment of NSCLC. Epidemiologic and preclinical data show estrogens play a critical role in lung tumor development and progression. Two estrogen receptors, ? and ?, are expressed in normal and in cancerous lung epithelium, and estrogen promotes gene transcription that stimulates cell proliferation and inhibits cell death. Furthermore, expression of both forms of estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor and aromatase in NSCLC specimens has been correlated with worse clinical outcomes. Combination therapies that include estrogen receptor downregulators and aromatase inhibitors are currently being assessed in Phase I-II clinical trials among patients with advanced NSCLC. Results will help guide future lung cancer management decisions, with a goal of achieving more effective and less toxic treatments for patients.

Progesterone and estrogen receptor expression and activity in human non-small cell lung cancer.

Project description:Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer mortality in male and female patients in the US. Although it is clear that tobacco smoking is a major cause of lung cancer, about half of all women with lung cancer worldwide are never-smokers. Despite a declining smoking population, the incidence of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the predominant form of lung cancer, has reached epidemic proportions particularly in women. Emerging data suggest that factors other than tobacco, namely endogenous and exogenous female sex hormones, have a role in stimulating NSCLC progression. Aromatase, a key enzyme for estrogen biosynthesis, is expressed in NSCLC. Clinical data show that women with high levels of tumor aromatase (and high intratumoral estrogen) have worse survival than those with low aromatase. The present and previous studies also reveal significant expression and activity of estrogen receptors (ER?, ER?) in both extranuclear and nuclear sites in most NSCLC. We now report further on the expression of progesterone receptor (PR) transcripts and protein in NSCLC. PR transcripts were significantly lower in cancerous as compared to non-malignant tissue. Using immunohistochemistry, expression of PR was observed in the nucleus and/or extranuclear compartments in the majority of human tumor specimens examined. Combinations of estrogen and progestins administered in vitro cooperate in promoting tumor secretion of vascular endothelial growth factor and, consequently, support tumor-associated angiogenesis. Further, dual treatment with estradiol and progestin increased the numbers of putative tumor stem/progenitor cells. Thus, ER- and/or PR-targeted therapies may offer new approaches to manage NSCLC.

Advances in adjuvant systemic therapy for non-small-cell lung cancer.

Project description:Non-small-cell lung cancer remains a leading cause of death around the world. For most cases, the only chance of cure comes from resection for localised disease, however relapse rates remain high following surgery. Data has emerged over recent years regarding the utility of adjuvant chemotherapy for improving disease-free and overall survival of patients following curative resection. This paper reviews the clinical trials that have been conducted in this area along with the studies integrating radiation therapy in the adjuvant setting. The role of prognostic gene signatures are reviewed as well as ongoing clinical trials including those incorporating biological or targeted therapies.

[Research Advances of Ang-2 in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer].

Project description:Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the malignant tumors with highest mortality in the world, it is still a difficult problem in clinical field. Its occurrence and development are closely associated with tumor angiogenesis. Angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) is an important angiogenesis factor that has involved in many researches and it has been confirmed that the expression of Ang-2 is significantly up-regulated in tissues and blood of NSCLC. Meanwhile, Ang-2 is related to malignant biological behavior of cancer cells, making it a potential biological marker for the diagnosis and prognosis of NSCLC. At present, researches on Ang-2 how to promote the progression of NSCLC around the world are focused on Ang-2 regulating the proliferation, invasion, and metastasis of NSCLC. This paper summarized and estimated the studies and literature reports of regulatory mechanisms of Ang-2 in NSCLC, hopefully it could help looking for targeted drug treatment of Ang-2 in the future.?.

Chemotherapy advances in small-cell lung cancer.

Project description:Although chemotherapeutic advances have recently been heralded in lung adenocarcinomas, such success with small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) has been ominously absent. Indeed, the dismal outlook of this disease is exemplified by the failure of any significant advances in first line therapy since the introduction of the current standard platinum-etoposide doublet over 30 years ago. Moreover, such sluggish progress is compounded by the dearth of FDA-approved agents for patients with relapsed disease. However, over the past decade, novel formulations of drug classes commonly used in SCLC (e.g. topoisomerase inhibitors, anthracyclines, alkylating and platinum agents) are emerging as potential alternatives that could effectively add to the armamentarium of agents currently at our disposal. This review is introduced with an overview on the historical development of chemotherapeutic regimens used in this disease and followed by the recent encouraging advances witnessed in clinical trials with drugs such as amrubicin and belotecan which are forging new horizons for future treatment algorithms.

Advances in multimodal treatment for stage IIIA-N2 non-small cell lung cancer.

Project description:Background and aimIn Stage IIIA-N2 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the accuracy of combined positron-emission tomography/computed tomography imaging (PET-CT), together with mediastinal staging techniques, has led to a wide range of challenging clinical scenarios in terms of therapeutic management. Concurrent chemoradiotherapy followed by consolidation immunotherapy remains the standard of care. In patients with potentially-resectable disease, surgery plays an important role in multimodal therapy. The introduction of targeted therapies and immune-checkpoint inhibitors has revolutionized multimodal treatment. In the present article, we review current treatment options and future trends in stage IIIA-N2 NSCLC.Relevance for patientsThis article provides insight into the current status of multimodal treatment for NSCLC to support decision-making in routine clinical practice.
