RESUMEN
PURPOSE: To investigate the novel zein-based non-adhesive precipitating liquid embolic HEIE1_2017. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Zein-based liquid embolics are an own class of embolization material. In this study, HEIE1_2017, a novel zein-based liquid embolic, was investigated. Visibility was assessed in vitro in CT and MRI phantoms, embolization characteristics were assessed in vivo in the kidneys of 12 pigs. Components of HEIE1_2017 were zein as occlusion material, ethanol as solvent, and iodized oil as radiopaque material. HEIE1_2017 was used in pure (HEI-PURE) and manually modified (HEI-MOD) form and compared with 6% ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVOH). Different radiological methods (CT, MRI, DSA, cone-beam CT, and micro-CT) and histopathologic analyses were applied to compare visibility and vascular occlusion patterns. RESULTS: In CT phantoms, all embolics were definitely visible as hyperdense materials. In MRI phantoms, signal-to-noise ratio was highest for HEI-PURE, followed by HEI-MOD and EVOH. In all kidneys, embolization procedures were technically successful and without complications. In DSA, all embolics were definitely visible during and after embolization. Only EVOH caused substantial artifacts in cone-beam CT and CT. In micro-CT and histopathology, HEI-PURE showed a homogeneous occlusion from segmental arteries to glomerular capillaries. HEI-MOD demonstrated the deepest vascular penetration (up to the level of peritubular capillaries), but with an inhomogeneous distribution. For EVOH, there was inhomogeneous vascular occlusion from segmental arteries to glomerular capillaries. CONCLUSION: HEIE1_2017 is a promising novel zein-based liquid embolic. Further preclinical and clinical studies with higher case numbers and long-term follow-up are needed to further assess the value of this embolic material.

Mutations in codon 132 of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) 1 are frequent in diffuse glioma, acute myeloid leukemia, chondrosarcoma and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. These mutations result in a neomorphic enzyme specificity which leads to a dramatic increase of intracellular D-2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG) in tumor cells. Therefore, mutant IDH1 protein is a highly attractive target for inhibitory drugs. Here, we describe the development and properties of BAY 1436032, a pan-inhibitor of IDH1 protein with different codon 132 mutations. BAY 1436032 strongly reduces 2-HG levels in cells carrying IDH1-R132H, -R132C, -R132G, -R132S and -R132L mutations. Cells not carrying IDH mutations were unaffected. BAY 1436032 did not exhibit toxicity in vitro or in vivo. The pharmacokinetic properties of BAY 1436032 allow for oral administration. In two independent experiments, BAY 1436032 has been shown to significantly prolong survival of mice intracerebrally transplanted with human astrocytoma carrying the IDH1R132H mutation. In conclusion, we developed a pan-inhibitor targeting tumors with different IDH1R132 mutations.
