Proton Pump Inhibitors Enhance the Antitumor Effect of Chemotherapy for Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Vacuolar ATPase (V-ATPase) is involved in cancer development. The use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) as V-ATPase inhibitors has been reported to enhance the effectiveness of chemotherapy in certain cancers. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of PPIs on chemotherapy for esophageal cancer.

Methods

To investigate the effects of PPIs on esophageal cancer cells, human KYSE50 and 70 cells were plated and 3 PPIs (lansoprazole, esomeprazole, vonoprazan) were added at various concentrations with 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) to the corresponding cells for a cell viability assay. To investigate the effects of PPI treatment on patients undergoing 5-FU-based therapy in the clinical setting, we retrospectively analyzed the clinical outcomes and chemotherapy-related adverse events in 40 esophageal cancer patients who received 5-FU chemotherapy in our hospital between May 2013 and April 2017.

Results

In the viability assays, all PPIs significantly enhanced the cytotoxic effect of 5-FU on the two esophageal cancer cell lines. In the clinical study, PPI-treated patients showed better overall survival (OS) than patients managed without PPI treatment. A multivariate analysis revealed that PPI treatment was independently associated with OS (p = 0.009, HR, 0.33; 95% CI, 0.12-0.76).

Conclusions

PPI treatment may safely enhance chemosensitivity in esophageal cancer patients.

Project description:BackgroundAcidity is a hallmark of malignant tumor, representing a very efficient mechanism of chemoresistance. Proton pump inhibitors (PPI) at high dosage have been shown to sensitize chemoresistant human tumor cells and tumors to cytotoxic molecules. The aim of this pilot study was to investigate the efficacy of PPI in improving the clinical outcome of docetaxel + cisplatin regimen in patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC).MethodsPatients enrolled were randomly assigned to three arms: Arm A, docetaxel 75 mg/m(2) followed by cisplatin 75 mg/m(2) on d4, repeated every 21 days with a maximum of 6 cycles; Arm B, the same chemotherapy preceded by three days esomeprazole (ESOM) 80 mg p.o. bid, beginning on d1 repeated weekly. Weekly intermittent administration of ESOM (3 days on 4 days off) was maintained up to maximum 66 weeks; Arm C, the same as Arm B with the only difference being dose of ESOM at 100 mg p.o. bid. The primary endpoint was response rate.ResultsNinety-four patients were randomly assigned and underwent at least one injection of chemotherapy. Response rates for arm A, B and C were 46.9, 71.0, and 64.5 %, respectively. Median TTP for arm A (n = 32), B (n = 31), C (n = 31) were 8.7, 9.4, and 9.7 months, respectively. A significant difference was observed between patients who had taken PPI and who not with ORR (67.7 % vs. 46.9 %, p = 0.049) and median TTP (9.7 months vs. 8.7 months, p = 0.045) [corrected]. Exploratory analysis showed that among 15 patients with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), this difference was bigger with median TTP of 10.7 and 5.8 months, respectively (p = 0.011). PPI combination showed a marked effect on OS as well, while with a borderline significance (29.9 vs. 19.2 months, p = 0.090). No additional toxicity was observed with PPI.ConclusionsThe results of this pilot clinical trial showed that intermittent high dose PPI enhance the antitumor effects of chemotherapy in MBC patients without evidence of additional toxicity, which requires urgent validation in a multicenter, randomized, phase III trial.Trial registrationClinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT01069081 .
