Current Therapeutic Progress of CDK4/6 Inhibitors in Breast Cancer.

ABSTRACT: The clinical use of selective cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitors has significantly improved the prognosis of patients with hormone receptor (HR)-positive human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative advanced or metastatic breast cancer (ABC/mBC), which almost achieved the double progression-free survival (PFS) in combination with endocrine therapy (ET) compared with ET alone. To date, there are 3 CDK4/6 inhibitors (palbociclib, ribocilcib and abemaciclib) approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Medicines Agency (EMA) to treat patients with HR+/HER2-ABC/mBC in the first and later lines. The aim of this review is to summarize the current clinical use and ongoing clinical trials of CDK4/6 inhibitors, the published overall survival data, and the potential biomarkers and resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors.

Bevacizumab and breast cancer: current therapeutic progress and future perspectives.

Project description:Bevacizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody to VEGF, and the incorporation of bevacizumab to chemotherapy is one of the rapidly evolving areas in the treatment of breast cancer. Bevacizumab in combination with chemotherapy versus chemotherapy alone improves progression-free survival and increases the response rate in first-line therapy for locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer. This approach has been and is still being evaluated for early breast cancer in neoadjuvant and adjuvant settings. Bevacizumab is well tolerated and has an established tolerability profile. Both tumor- and host-related biomarkers of bevacizumab activity, response and benefit are emerging from Phase I, II and III clinical trials. The biomarkers of benefit will ultimately help identify the subgroups of patients who specifically benefit from anti-VEGF therapy with bevacizumab.

CDK4/6 inhibitors in breast cancer therapy: Current practice and future opportunities.

Project description:Dysregulation of the cyclin dependent kinase pathway in luminal breast cancer creates a new therapeutic opportunity for estrogen receptor positive breast cancer. Initial pan-CDK inhibitors were associated with extensive toxicities but in recent years, the development of potent specific CDK inhibitors with favorable tolerability has driven renewed interests in this class of targeted therapies. Palbociclib, ribociclib and abemaciclib are specific CDK4/6 inhibitors that have been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for use in combination with endocrine therapy for women with advanced hormone receptor positive breast cancer. These three anticancer therapeutics were approved based on progression free survival benefit seen on phase III trials with the most common grade 3 treatment-related side effects being neutropenia, fatigue, nausea and diarrhea. Except for estrogen receptor positivity, no biomarkers predictive of response to CDK4/6 inhibitors have been identified to date. Based on mechanistic insights here described, CDK4/6 inhibitors are currently being explored in combination with other agents, including targeted therapies, immunotherapy and chemotherapy.

CDK4/6 inhibitors: A potential therapeutic approach for triple negative breast cancer.

Project description:Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells lack expression of the estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2). Thus, TNBC does not respond to hormone-based therapy. TNBC is also an aggressive subtype associated with poorer prognoses compared to other breast cancers. Conventional chemotherapeutics are used to manage TNBC although systemic relapse is common with limited benefits being reported as well as adverse events being documented. Here, we discuss current therapies for TNBC in the neo- and adjuvant settings, as well as recent advancements in the targeting of PD-L1-positive tumors and inclusion of PARP inhibitors for TNBC patients with BRCA mutations. The recent development of cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitors in ER-positive breast cancers has demonstrated significant improvements in progression free survival in patients. Here, we review preclinical data of CDK 4/6 inhibitors and describe current clinical trials assessing these in TNBC disease.

CDK4/6 Inhibitors in Hormone Receptor-Positive Metastatic Breast Cancer: Current Practice and Knowledge.

Project description:Treatment paradigms in advanced hormone receptor (HR)-positive breast cancer were substantially transformed with cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) approval. The addition of these drugs to endocrine treatment profoundly improved progression-free and overall survival. Additionally, other important endpoints, such as the response rate, time to chemotherapy, and a delay in quality of life deterioration, were positively impacted by CDK4/6 inhibitors' addition to the treatment of advanced HR-positive breast cancer. This review article will summarize current knowledge on CDK4/6 inhibitors in clinical practice for advanced HR-positive metastatic breast cancer, as well as describe recent efforts to more precisely characterize mechanisms of sensitivity and resistance to these drugs, both on the molecular and clinical characterization level.

[Research Progress of CDK4/6 Inhibitors in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer].

Project description:Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for 80%-85% of lung cancer. Malignant tumors can proliferate indefinitely, and cell cycle regulation is abnormal which is one of the characteristics of malignant tumor. Cyclin D-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitor can prevent tumor cells from entering S phase through G? phase and inhibit tumor proliferation. The CDK4/6 inhibitor has achieved good effect in hormone receptor positive breast cancer, and CDK4/6 inhibitor combined with endocrine therapy has become a standard treatment for this kind of patients. Cell cycle regulation is usually abnormal in NSCLC, which incidence is about 22%-45%. CDK4/6 inhibitors have also carried out a series of research and achieved some results, which may become a new treatment in the future. This review focuses on the research progress of CDK4/6 inhibitors in NSCLC, including the mechanism and the approved drugs, clinical research progress in NSCLC, biomarkers for efficacy prediction and current limitations.

Recent Progress in CDK4/6 Inhibitors and PROTACs.

Project description:Cell division in eukaryotes is a highly regulated process that is critical to the life of a cell. Dysregulated cell proliferation, often driven by anomalies in cell Cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) activation, is a key pathological mechanism in cancer. Recently, selective CDK4/6 inhibitors have shown clinical success, particularly in treating advanced-stage estrogen receptor (ER)-positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer. This review provides an in-depth analysis of the action mechanism and recent advancements in CDK4/6 inhibitors, categorizing them based on their structural characteristics and origins. Furthermore, it explores proteolysis targeting chimers (PROTACs) targeting CDK4/6. We hope that this review could be of benefit for further research on CDK4/6 inhibitors and PROTACs.

Radiotherapy Delivered before CDK4/6 Inhibitors Mediates Superior Therapeutic Effects in ER<sup>+</sup> Breast Cancer.

Project description:PurposeRecent preclinical data suggest that cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibition may be harnessed to sensitize estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer to radiotherapy. However, these findings were obtained in human ER+ breast cancer cell lines exposed to subclinical doses of CDK4/6 inhibitors with limited attention to treatment schedule. We investigated the activity of radiotherapy combined with the prototypic CDK4/6 inhibitor palbociclib placing emphasis on therapeutic schedule.Experimental designWe combined radiotherapy and palbociclib in various doses and therapeutic schedules in human and mouse models of ER+ and ER-negative (ER-) breast cancer, including an immunocompetent mouse model that recapitulates key features of human luminal B breast cancer in women. We assessed proliferation, cell death, cell-cycle control, and clonogenic survival in vitro, as well as tumor growth, overall survival, and metastatic dissemination in vivo.ResultsRadiotherapy and palbociclib employed as standalone agents had partial cytostatic effects in vitro, correlating with suboptimal tumor control in vivo. However, while palbociclib delivered before focal radiotherapy provided minimal benefits as compared with either treatment alone, delivering focal radiotherapy before palbociclib mediated superior therapeutic effects, even in the absence of p53. Such superiority manifested in vitro with enhanced cytostasis and loss of clonogenic potential, as well as in vivo with improved local and systemic tumor control.ConclusionsOur preclinical findings demonstrate that radiotherapy delivered before CDK4/6 inhibitors mediates superior antineoplastic effects compared with alternative treatment schedules, calling into question the design of clinical trials administering CDK4/6 inhibitors before radiotherapy in women with ER+ breast cancer.

Therapeutic benefits of maintaining CDK4/6 inhibitors and incorporating CDK2 inhibitors beyond progression in breast cancer

Project description:The combination of CDK4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) and endocrine therapy (ET) has significantly improved outcomes for patients with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) metastatic breast cancer. However, most patients eventually develop resistance, leading to treatment discontinuation. The therapeutic benefits of maintaining CDK4/6i or transitioning to CDK2 inhibitors (CDK2i) beyond disease progression remain unclear. Here, we show that maintaining CDK4/6i and ET or combining them with CDK2i effectively suppresses the growth of drug-resistant HR+ breast cancer cells by prolonging G1-phase progression. CDK4/6i maintenance triggers a non-canonical pathway for Rb inactivation through post-translational degradation, resulting in attenuated E2F activity and slowed G1 progression. ET further augments this effect by inhibiting c-Myc-mediated E2F amplification. Although the maintenance of CDK4/6i and ET outperforms CDK2i with ET, the triple combination of CDK4/6i, CDK2i, and ET most effectively suppresses both E2F activity and tumor growth. Moreover, while overexpression of both cyclin E and A can promote resistance to the CDK4/6i and CDK2i combination, cyclin E plays a more pivotal role in developing resistance. These findings highlight the potential of sustained CDK4/6i therapy and the incorporation of CDK2i to mitigate resistance in HR+ breast cancer.

Overcoming Therapeutic Resistance in HER2-Positive Breast Cancers with CDK4/6 Inhibitors.

Project description:Using transgenic mouse models, cell line-based functional studies, and clinical specimens, we show that cyclin D1/CDK4 mediate resistance to targeted therapy for HER2-positive breast cancer. This is overcome using CDK4/6 inhibitors. Inhibition of CDK4/6 not only suppresses Rb phosphorylation, but also reduces TSC2 phosphorylation and thus partially attenuates mTORC1 activity. This relieves feedback inhibition of upstream EGFR family kinases, resensitizing tumors to EGFR/HER2 blockade. Consequently, dual inhibition of EGFR/HER2 and CDK4/6 invokes a more potent suppression of TSC2 phosphorylation and hence mTORC1/S6K/S6RP activity. The suppression of both Rb and S6RP enhances G1 arrest and a phenotype resembling cellular senescence. In vivo, CDK4/6 inhibitors sensitize patient-derived xenograft tumors to HER2-targeted therapies and delay tumor recurrence in a transgenic model of HER2-positive breast cancer.

Targeting Cell Cycle in Breast Cancer: CDK4/6 Inhibitors.

Project description:Deregulation of cell cycle, via cyclin D/CDK/pRb pathway, is frequently observed in breast cancer lending support to the development of drugs targeting the cell cycle control machinery, like the inhibitors of the cycline-dependent kinases (CDK) 4 and 6. Up to now, three CDK4/6 inhibitors have been approved by FDA for the treatment of hormone receptor-positive (HR+), HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer. These agents have been effective in improving the clinical outcomes, but the development of intrinsic or acquired resistance can limit the efficacy of these treatments. Clinical and translational research is now focused on investigation of the mechanism of sensitivity/resistance to CDK4/6 inhibition and novel therapeutic strategies aimed to improve clinical outcomes. This review summarizes the available knowledge regarding CDK4/6 inhibitor, the discovery of new biomarkers of response, and the biological rationale for new combination strategies of treatment.
