Cancer gene therapy 2024年10月10日This study explores a novel therapeutic approach for peritoneal metastasis (PM) using AAV-mediated delivery of tumor suppressor microRNA-29b (miR-29b) to peritoneal mesothelial cells (PMC). AAV serotypes 2 and DJ demonstrate high transduction efficiency for human and murine PMC, respectively. In vitro analysis indicates that AAV vectors encoding miR-29b precursor successfully elevate miR-29b expression in PMC and their secreted small extracellular vesicle (sEV), thereby inhibiting mesothelial mesenchymal transition and reducing subsequent attachment of tumor cells. A single intraperitoneal (IP) administration of AAV-DJ-miR-29b demonstrates robust and sustained transgene expression, suppressing peritoneal fibrosis and inhibiting the development of PM from gastric and pancreatic cancers. Additionally, AAV-DJ-miR-29b enhances the efficacy of IP chemotherapy using paclitaxel, restraining the growth of established PM. While conventional gene therapy for cancer encounters challenges targeting tumor cells directly but delivering miRNA to the tumor stroma offers a straightforward and efficient means of altering the microenvironment, leading to substantial inhibition of tumor growth. AAV-mediated miR-29b delivery to peritoneum via IP route presents a simple, minimally invasive, and promising therapeutic strategy for refractory PM.

Cancers 16(16) 2841-2841 2024年8月14日Despite advances in systemic chemotherapy, patients with gastric cancer (GC) and peritoneal metastases (PMs) continue to have poor prognoses. Intraperitoneal (IP) administration of Paclitaxel (PTX) combined with systemic chemotherapy shows promise in treating PMs from GC. However, methods of drug administration need to be optimized to maximize efficacy. In this study, we utilized a mouse model with PMs derived from a human GC cell line, administering PTX either IP or intravenously (IV), and Carboplatin (CBDCA) IV 0, 1, and 4 days after PTX administration. The PMs were resected 30 min later, and concentrations of PTX and CBDCA in resected tumors were measured using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Results indicated that PTX concentrations were higher with IP administration than with IV administration, with significant differences observed on days 0 and 1. CBDCA concentrations 4 days post-IP PTX administration were higher than with simultaneous IV PTX administration. These findings suggest that IP PTX administration enhances CBDCA concentration in peritoneal tumors. Therefore, sequential IV administration of anti-cancer drugs appears more effective than simultaneous administration with IP PTX, a strategy that may improve prognoses for patients with PMs.

World Journal of Surgery 2024年6月24日Abstract Background Osteopenia reflects frailty and has been shown to be associated with outcomes in cancer patients. This study was undertaken to examine whether osteopenia is an independent prognostic factor in patients with esophageal cancer after resection. Methods A total of 214 patients who underwent surgery for esophageal cancer were analyzed retrospectively. Bone mineral density (BMD) of the 11th thoracic vertebra was measured by computed tomography scan, and patients classified into osteopenia and normal BMD groups with BMD <160 Hounsfield units as the cutoff. Clinicopathological data and prognosis were analyzed. Results The 5‐year survival rate was 55.4% for the osteopenia group and 74.7% for the normal BMD group with a significantly worse prognosis in the osteopenia group (p = 0.0080). In multivariable analysis, osteopenia was a significant independent risk factor associated with overall survival (hazard ratio [HR] 1.90, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.27–3.34, and p = 0.0151) along with R1/2 resection (HR 3.02, 95% CI 1.71–5.18, and p = 0.0002). Conclusion In patients with esophageal cancer undergoing resection, osteopenia may be a surrogate marker for frailty and an independent predictor of prognosis.

Cancers 16(11) 2087-2087 2024年5月30日Background: Osteopenia is a well-known risk factor for survival in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma; however, it is unclear whether osteopenia can apply to both genders and how osteopenia is associated with cancer progression. The aim of this study was to elucidate whether osteopenia predicts reduced survival in regression models in both genders and whether osteopenia is associated with the pathological factors associated with reduced survival. Methods: This study included 188 consecutive patients who underwent hepatectomy. Bone mineral density was assessed using computed tomography (CT) scan images taken within 3 months before surgery. Non-contrast CT scan images at the level of the 11th thoracic vertebra were used. The cutoff value of osteopenia was calculated using a threshold value of 160 Hounsfield units. Overall survival (OS) curves and recurrence-free survival (RFS) were constructed using the Kaplan–Meier method, as was a log-rank test for survival. The hazard ratio and 95% confidence interval for overall survival were calculated using Cox’s proportional hazard model. Results: In the regression analysis, age predicted bone mineral density. The association in females was greater than that in males. The OS and RFS of osteopenia patients were shorter than those for non-osteopenia patients. According to univariate and multivariate analyses, osteopenia was an independent risk factor for OS and RFS. The sole pathological factor associated with osteopenia was microvascular portal vein invasion. Conclusion: Models suggest that osteopenia may predict decreased OS and RFS in patients undergoing resection of hepatocellular carcinoma due to the mechanisms mediated via microvascular portal vein invasion.
