Immunotherapy for HER-2 positive breast cancer

Immunotherapy for HER-2 positive breast cancer

Source : https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fonc.2023.1097983/full

Immunotherapy is a developing treatment for advanced breast cancer. Immunotherapy has clinical significance for the treatment of triple-negative breast cancers and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 positive (HER2+) breast cancers....

Conclusions/Relevance: Adoptive T-cell immunotherapies and tumor vaccines are emerging as novel approaches to treating breast cancer, but require further study. This article reviews recent advances in immunotherapy for HER2+ breast cancers.

Single oral dose acute and subacute toxicity of a c-MET tyrosine kinase inhibitor and CDK 4/6 inhibitor combination drug therapy

Single oral dose acute and subacute toxicity of a c-MET tyrosine kinase inhibitor and CDK 4/6 inhibitor combination drug therapy

Source : https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5794732/

c-MET inhibitor, crizotinib, and CDK 4/6 inhibitor, palbociclib, have been evaluated in combination as cancer treatment in vitro. Because the toxicological data for the combination of these drugs is limited,...

Conclusions/Relevance: The findings from the current in vivo toxicity study in mice, which encompassed two time points at 24 hours and 7 days, may help build upon the base knowledge of what is already known in reference to C and P and provide helpful information for future studies of these drugs. We have shown that the combination of C and P...

Individualizing Curative-Intent Therapy in HER2-Positive Early-Stage Breast Cancer - Current Treatment Options in Oncology

Individualizing Curative-Intent Therapy in HER2-Positive Early-Stage Breast Cancer - Current Treatment Options in Oncology

Source : https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11864-023-01070-7

Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive (HER2+) breast cancers have been historically considered an aggressive entity with high rates of recurrence and poor survival. However, during the last 20 years,...

Opinion Statement: Various biomarkers have been proposed to better characterize the clinical and biological heterogeneity of HER2+ breast cancer. Immune infiltration, intrinsic subtype, intratumoral heterogeneity, and dynamic changes during treatment have been described as important prognostic and/or predictive features. The integration of...

Virtual Screening for Identification of Dual Inhibitors against CDK4/6 and Aromatase Enzyme - PubMed

Virtual Screening for Identification of Dual Inhibitors against CDK4/6 and Aromatase Enzyme - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36985460/

CDK4/6 and aromatase are prominent targets for breast cancer drug discovery and are involved in abnormal cell proliferation and growth. Although aromatase inhibitors have proven to be effective (for example...

Conclusions/Relevance: Molecular dynamics simulation studies solidify the stability of the lead candidate complexes. In addition, ADMET and DFT calculations bolster the lead candidates. Hence, these combined computational approaches will provide a better therapeutic potential for developing CDK4/6-aromatase dual inhibitors for HR+ breast...
