EGFR targeting of solid tumors.
BACKGROUND Recent clinical trials suggest that epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-targeted agents could benefit many patients with cancer. METHODS We review the current status of several EGFR-targeted therapies in cancer patients and address the efficacy of theses drugs as monotherapy or in combination with other drugs and/or treatments. RESULTS Cetuximab is the most widely studied ant...
متن کاملTargeting BET bromodomain proteins in solid tumors
There is increasing interest in inhibitors targeting BET (bromodomain and extra-terminal) proteins because of the association between this family of proteins and cancer progression. BET inhibitors were initially shown to have efficacy in hematologic malignancies; however, a number of studies have now shown that BET inhibitors can also block progression of non-hematologic malignancies. In this R...
متن کاملThe EphA2 receptor and ephrinA1 ligand in solid tumors: function and therapeutic targeting.
The Eph receptor tyrosine kinases and ephrin ligands have been studied extensively for their roles in developmental processes. In recent years, Eph receptors and ephrins have been found to be integral players in cancer formation and progression. Among these are EphA2 and ephrinA1, which are involved in the development and maintenance of many different types of solid tumors. The function of EphA...
متن کاملAmatuximab and novel agents targeting mesothelin for solid tumors
Mesothelin (MSLN) is considered a promising target for cancer therapy. Originally extracted in 1992 after the immunization of mice with a human ovarian cancer (OC) cell line and cloned in 1996, MSLN seems to be involved in cell adhesion and metastasis. MSLN is prevalent in mesothelia tissues but is expressed in several human cancers, such as OC, pancreatic cancer, mesothelioma, and lung cancer....
متن کاملEngineering Antibodies for Improved Targeting of Solid Tumors
Monoclonal antibodies have emerged as an important class of cancer therapeutics due to their ability to specifically bind tumor-expressed antigens. Unfortunately, attempts to treat solid tumors with these drugs are often limited by an inability of the antibodies to fully penetrate the tumor tissue, leaving large regions of untargeted and viable cells. The goal of this thesis is to understand th...
