RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Long-term survival induced by anticancer treatments discloses emerging frailty among breast cancer (BC) survivors. Trastuzumab-induced cardiotoxicity (TIC) is reported in at least 5% of HER2+BC patients. However, TIC mechanism remains unclear and predictive genetic biomarkers are still lacking. Interaction between systemic inflammation, cytokine release and ADME genes in cancer patients might contribute to explain mechanisms underlying individual susceptibility to TIC and drug response variability. We present a single institution case series to investigate the potential role of genetic variants in ADME genes in HER2+BC patients TIC experienced. METHODS: We selected data related to 40 HER2+ BC patients undergone to DMET genotyping of ADME constitutive variant profiling, with the aim to prospectively explore their potential role in developing TIC. Only 3 patients ("case series"), who experienced TIC, were compared to 37 "control group" matched patients cardiotoxicity-sparing. All patients underwent to left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) evaluation at diagnosis and during anti-HER2 therapy. Each single probe was clustered to detect SNPs related to cardiotoxicity. RESULTS: In this retrospective analysis, our 3 cases were homogeneous in terms of clinical-pathological characteristics, trastuzumab-based treatment and LVEF decline. We identified 9 polymorphic variants in 8 ADME genes (UGT1A1, UGT1A6, UGT1A7, UGT2B15, SLC22A1, CYP3A5, ABCC4, CYP2D6) potentially associated with TIC. CONCLUSION: Real-world TIC incidence is higher compared to randomized clinical trials and biomarkers with potential predictive value aren't available. Our preliminary data, as proof of concept, could suggest a predictive role of pharmacogenomic approach in the identification of cardiotoxicity risk biomarkers for anti-HER2 treatment.

RESUMO

Background: The optimal strategy for the treatment of recurrent and/or advanced endometrial cancer is still undefined. Recently, despite the lack of any predictive biomarker, the combination of pembrolizumab with lenvatinib has improved survival outcomes. We here report the long-term management of lung toxicity in a patient with endometrial cancer, and we critically review the current therapeutic options for this disease. Results: A patient with heavily pretreated endometrial cancer took pembrolizumab plus lenvatinib for 1 year, achieving a persistent partial response with a time to treatment failure of 18 months, despite relevant lung toxicity that did not affect the remarkable overall clinical benefit. A systematic review of this combination underlines the efficacy outcome despite toxicity. Interestingly, the literature review on lung toxicity suggested the role of anti-angiogenetic agents in the pathogenesis of lung cavitation, probably related to direct treatment activity, and disclosed a potential radiological sign predictive of the activity of anti-angiogenetic agents. Conclusion: We underline the efficacy of pembrolizumab plus lenvatinib in the current treatment landscape of endometrial cancer, underscoring the relevance of a correct management of toxicity.

RESUMO

Among deregulated microRNAs (miRs) in human malignancies, miR-221 has been widely investigated for its oncogenic role and as a promising biomarker. Moreover, recent evidence suggests miR-221 as a fine-tuner of chronic liver injury and inflammation-related events. Available information also supports the potential of miR-221 silencing as promising therapeutic intervention. In this systematic review, we selected papers from the principal databases (PubMed, MedLine, Medscape, ASCO, ESMO) between January 2012 and December 2020, using the keywords "miR-221" and the specific keywords related to the most important hematologic and solid malignancies, and some non-malignant diseases, to define and characterize deregulated miR-221 as a valuable therapeutic target in the modern vision of molecular medicine. We found a major role of miR-221 in this view.
