Sulfatase 2 Inhibition Sensitizes Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Cells to Chemotherapy Through Augmentation of Extracellular ATP.

Author: Cherian, Mathew A ; Marcho, Lynn ; Manouchehri, Jasmine M

BackgroundBreast cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death among women worldwide. Patients diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) have limited therapeutic options that produce durable responses. Hence, a diagnosis of TNBC is associated with a poor prognosis compared to other types of breast cancer. As a result, there is a critical need for novel therapies that can deepen and prolong responses.We previously found that chemotherapy causes the release of extracellular adenosine triphosphate (eATP). Augmenting eATP release can boost the response of TNBC cells to chemotherapy and cause increased cell death. However, eATP concentrations are limited by several families of extracellular ATPases, which complicates the design of compounds that attenuate eATP degradation.In this study, we hypothesized that heparan sulfate (HS) would inhibit extracellular ATPases and accentuate chemotherapy-induced cytotoxicity in TNBC by augmenting eATP. HS can be desulfated by sulfatase 1 and 2; sulfatase 2 is consistently highly expressed in a variety of cancers including breast cancer, whereas sulfatase 1 is not. We hypothesized that the sulfatase 2 inhibitor OKN-007 would exacerbate chemotherapy-induced eATP release and TNBC cell death.MethodsTNBC cell lines and nontumorigenic immortal mammary epithelial cells were treated with paclitaxel in the presence of heparan sodium sulfate and/or OKN-007; eATP content and cell viability were evaluated. In addition, protein and cell surface expression of sulfatases 1 and 2 were determined in all examined cell lines via ELISA, Western blot, and flow cytometry analyses.ResultsSulfatase 2 was highly expressed in TNBC cell lines and human breast cancer samples but not in immortal mammary epithelial cells and much less so in normal human breast tissue and ductal carcinoma in situ samples. OKN-007 exacerbated chemotherapy-induced eATP release and chemotherapy-induced TNBC cell death. When combined with chemotherapy, OKN-007 attenuated cells with a cancer-initiating cell phenotype.ConclusionsThese results suggest that sulfatase 2 inhibitors in combination with chemotherapy attenuate the viability of TNBC cells more than chemotherapy alone by exacerbating eATP release. These effects, as well as their capacity to attenuate the cancer-initiating cell fraction, may translate into combination therapies for TNBC that induce deeper and more durable responses.

Response to OKN-007 and NAC in a Patient with Unilateral Hearing Loss and Chronic Tinnitus from Vestibular Schwannoma

Author: Frazer, Gregory ; Kopke, Richard D ; Liu, Andy ; Sharma, Akanksha ; Gill, Jaya M ; Zats, Max ; Chacon, Emma ; Kang, Shinwook ; Juarez, Tiffany ; Truong, Judy ; West, Matthew B ; Nersesian, Raffi ; Nguyen, Minhdan ; Kesari, Santosh ; Griffiths, Chester ; Wagle, Naveed

BACKGROUNDTinnitus is the perception of sound in the absence of external acoustic stimulation. Being one of the most common diseases of the ear, it has a global prevalence ranging from 4.1 to 37.2%. To date, it has been difficult to treat tinnitus as its pathophysiology is poorly understood and there are limited treatment options.OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of OKN-007 (also known as HPN-07), a nitrone-based investigational drug, in combination with oral N-acetylcycsteine (NAC), for the treatment of hearing loss and chronic tinnitus under an individual expanded access protocol.PATIENT CASEWe report the case of a patient who presented with left-sided ear fullness, mild tinnitus, and mild high frequency sensorineural hearing loss with 100% word recognition. A large enhancing mass seen on MRI revealed a vestibular schwannoma. He underwent subtotal resection of the tumor resulting in a moderate-to-profound sensorineural hearing loss and catastrophic tinnitus. The patient was treated with intravenous OKN-007 at 60 mg/kg dosed three times per week and oral NAC 2500 mg twice daily.RESULTSPost-treatment audiometric testing revealed an average of 16.66 dB in hearing threshold improvement in three frequencies (125, 250 and 500 Hz) with residual hearing in the affected left ear. His tinnitus loudness matching improved from 90 dB to 19 dB post-treatment. His Tinnitus Handicap Inventory improved from 86/100 (Catastrophic) to 40/100 (Moderate). He also experienced improvements in sleep, concentration, hearing, and emotional well-being, and reported significantly decreased levels of tinnitusrelated distress.CONCLUSIONSThis case report highlights the feasibility and therapeutic potential of the combination of OKN-007 and NAC in treating hearing loss and tinnitus that warrants further investigation.

Neuroprotective efficacy of N-t-butylhydroxylamine (NtBHA) in transient focal ischemia in rats

Article

Author: Kim, Eun-Hye ; Majid, Arshad ; Shin, Yusun ; Kim, Eun-Sun ; De Felice, Milena ; Kim, Donghyun ; Bae, Ok-Nam

The pharmacological or toxicological activities of the degradation products of drug candidates have been unaddressed during the drug development process. Ischemic stroke accounts for 80% of all strokes and is responsible for considerable mortality and disability worldwide. Despite decades of research on neuroprotective agents, tissue plasminogen activators (t-PA), a thrombolytic agent, remains the only approved acute stroke pharmacological therapy. NXY-059, a free radical scavenger, exhibited striking neuroprotective properties in preclinical models and met all the criteria established by the Stroke Academic Industry Roundtable (STAIR) for a neuroprotective agent. In phase 3 clinical trials, NXY-059 exhibited significant neuroprotective effects in one trial (SAINT-I), but not in the second (SAINT-II). Some have hypothesized that N-t-butyl hydroxylamine (NtBHA), a breakdown product of NXY-059 was the actual neuroprotective agent in SAINT-I and that changes to the formulation of NXY-059 to prevent its breakdown to NtBHA in SAINT -II was the reason for the lack of efficacy. We evaluated the neuroprotective effect of NtBHA in N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-treated primary neurons and in rat focal cerebral ischemia. NtBHA significantly attenuated infarct volume in rat transient focal ischemia, and attenuated NMDA-induced cytotoxicity in primary cortical neurons. NtBHA also reduced free radical generation and exhibited mitochondrial protection.

Discover which therapies are expected to grab the major glioma market share @ Glioma Market Report Glioma Overview Glioma is the most common kind of glial cell tumor in the central nervous system (CNS). Gliomas are infiltrative tumors that affect the brain tissue surrounding them. Glioblastoma is the most hazardous type of brain tumor, whereas pilocytic astrocytomas are the least dangerous. Previously, diffuse gliomas were classified into subgroups and grades depending on histopathologies, such as diffuse astrocytomas, oligodendrogliomas, or mixed gliomas/oligoastrocytomas. The specific etiology of glioma, like other primary brain tumors, remains unknown. However, certain variables may increase the risk of getting a brain tumor. Glioma symptoms vary depending on tumor type, size, location, and growth rate. Some common glioma symptoms include headache, nausea or vomiting, memory loss, urine incontinence, speech problems, and others. A medical history and a physical examination are used for glioma diagnosis. Glioma Epidemiology Segmentation DelveInsight estimates that there were approximately 47K incident cases of glioma in the 7MM in 2022. As per our analysis, the United States contributed to the largest incident population of glioma, acquiring ~40% of the 7MM in 2022. The glioma market report proffers epidemiological analysis for the study period 2019–2032 in the 7MM segmented into: Total glioma incident cases Glioma grade-specific cases Glioma age-specific cases Glioma type-specific cases Download the report to understand which factors are driving glioma epidemiology trends @ Glioma Epidemiological Insights Glioma Treatment Market Glioma treatment is based on the type of glioma, its size and location, and the patient's unique characteristics. Chemotherapy and radiation therapy will be administered after surgery, particularly in individuals when the tumor cannot be removed entirely because it has invaded critical parts of the brain or is inaccessible. The typical glioma treatment protocol comprises surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation. Chemotherapy may include carmustine (BCNU), lomustine (CCNU), or gleostine (generic), cisplatin, carboplatin, etoposide, and irinotecan in case of low-grade glioma whereas temozolomide (TEMODAR) is the standard chemotherapy used in case of high-grade glioma majorly, Gliadel wafer implants (biodegradable discs injected with BCNU) are usually given as adjunctive treatment after surgery, although usage of Gliadel wafers remains a point of controversy due to its questionable survival benefits. Avastin (Genentech) and Temodar/Temodal (Merck), among others, are approved medications for HGG. However, due to patent expiration, the generic version of Temodar and biosimilars of Avastin are available on the glioma market. As generics and biosimilars are more cost-effective for patients than new medicines, intense competition exists among them. Furthermore, due to a lack of knowledge concerning bevacizumab's overall survival benefit, it is not recommended in unselected patients with newly diagnosed GBM. Currently, only one medication for LGG is approved, Tafinlar (dabrafenib) plus Mekinist (trametinib). Moreover, the current therapeutic market lacks a viable method for curing glioblastoma; therefore, the survival rate of people diagnosed with glioma remains poor. Glioma is incurable, and treatment choices are limited. Furthermore, the tumor has a high recurrence rate and a poor patient prognosis. In addition, there is currently no approved therapy for the unmethylated MGMT patient pool.

Commercially, there is a greater emphasis on high-grade glioma than low-grade glioma because patients with low-grade glioma often live longer than those with high-grade glioma. As a result, just a few therapies are in late-stage studies, while the majority are in early-stage trials. In the case of GBM, on the other hand, the pipeline is robust, with numerous potential therapies in late and mid-stage research that have yet to be marketed. The pipeline includes drugs with varied modes of action and administration routes. It is interesting to note that the emerging market of glioma includes budding gene therapy, i.e., ofranergene obadenovec (VB-111) by VBL Therapeutics, followed by four vaccine/immunotherapy candidates such as VBI-1901, AV-GBM-1 and ITI-1000 (pp65 DC Vaccine), tasadenoturev (DNX-2401) by VBI Vaccines, Aivita Biomedical, Immunomic Therapeutics, and DNAtrix, respectively, and these therapies are going to alter the glioma market dynamics in the upcoming years. The current glioma market has been categorized based on the dominant treatment pattern across the 7MM, which shows slight variances in the overall prescription pattern. The forecast model considers surgery, chemotherapy/radiation therapy, bevacizumab + radiotherapy/chemotherapy, and OPTUNE with temozolomide. The anticipated launch of new therapies and improved integration of early patient screening, medication in secondary care and other clinical settings, research on optimum implementation methods, and increased awareness may eventually facilitate the development of successful treatment alternatives. However, there are a few challenges to the timely identification and treatment of these patients, such as a lack of a reliable biomarker that can aid in diagnosis and patient classification and identifying recurrence and signaling medication response. Furthermore, the failure rate of high-phased drug trials is significant, making it impossible to predict trial success, exacerbating the need for medicines that could assist ease the patient segment with this severe kind of cancer.
