resistance to her2-targeted therapy
Authors
abstract
production and approval of trastuzumab (herceptin®) for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer (mbc) was a millstone in antibody-based targeted therapy in the cancer treatment. however, despite the early success in the clinical trials, trastuzumab failed to appreciate the initial attraction due to development of resistance to the drug. the majority of patients who benefit from the drug acquire resistance to it and experience tumor recurrence within 1 year. several molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying the resistance to trastuzumab have been proposed. in this review, first, we provide a brief history leading to production of trastuzumab. also we consider the cellular and molecular antitumor effects of trastuzumab and then, we discuss the mechanisms underlying trastuzumab resistance in four levels.

However, despite the early success in the clinical trials, trastuzumab failed to appreciate the initial attraction due to development of resistance to the drug.

full textOvercoming resistance to HER2-targeted therapy with a novel HER2/CD3 bispecific antibody
T-cell-based therapies have emerged as one of the most clinically effective ways to target solid and non-solid tumors. HER2 is responsible for the oncogenesis and treatment resistance of several human solid tumors. As a member of the HER family of tyrosine kinase receptors, its over-activity confers unfavorable clinical outcome. Targeted therapies directed at this receptor have achieved respons...
full textIdentification of novel pathways linking epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition with resistance to HER2-targeted therapy
Resistance to human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-targeted therapies in the treatment of HER2-positive breast cancer is a major clinical problem. To identify pathways linked to resistance, we generated HER2-positive breast cancer cell lines which are resistant to either lapatinib or AZD8931, two pan-HER family kinase inhibitors. Resistance was HER2 independent and was associated wit...
full textTargeting PI3K/mTOR overcomes resistance to HER2-targeted therapy independent of feedback activation of AKT.
PURPOSE Altered PI3K/mTOR signaling is implicated in the pathogenesis of a number of breast cancers, including those resistant to hormonal and HER2-targeted therapies. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN The activity of four classes of PI3K/mTOR inhibitory molecules, including a pan-PI3K inhibitor (NVP-BKM120), a p110α isoform-specific PI3K inhibitor (NVP-BYL719), an mTORC1-specific inhibitor (NVP-RAD001), a...

INTRODUCTION Breast cancer is the second most common cause of death for women behind lung cancer and the most common cause of cancer deaths for women aged 45-55 years old (CDC.gov 2012). Although there continue to be enormously large numbers of disease incidence, deaths have been declining due to the disease with two hallmark time frames. The first occurred during the mid to late 1980's when ho...
full textTargeted Therapy of HER2-Negative Breast Cancer.
Personalized and targeted treatments are the most discussed topics in oncology. However, how much personalized medicine is standard of care nowadays and how much is part of our hope for a better future? So far, only a few targeted therapies are available in daily practice for the treatment of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer. And even for these few targeted...
