Eribulin versus taxane as first-line chemotherapy combined with dual HER2 blockade in patients with HER2-positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer: final survival outcomes of the JBCRG-M06/EMERALD study.

BACKGROUND: The phase III JBCRG-M06/EMERALD study was the first to show noninferior progression-free survival (PFS) of eribulin to taxane, combined with dual human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) blockade (trastuzumab plus pertuzumab), as a first-line treatment for HER2-positive locally advanced breast cancer or metastatic breast cancer (LABC/MBC). We report final survival outcomes and biomarker analyses of the EMERALD trial. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients with HER2-positive LABC/MBC were randomly assigned 1:1 to either eribulin or physician-choice taxane (docetaxel or paclitaxel), both combined with trastuzumab plus pertuzumab, as first-line chemotherapy. PFS and overall survival (OS) were assessed through 30 June 2023 for PFS and 31 December 2024 for OS. Survival outcomes were compared between the eribulin and taxane groups and according to circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) detection of PIK3CA mutations (PIK3CAm+; E542K, E545K, H1047R, and N345K single nucleotide variants) or HER2 amplification (HER2 amp+; ERBB2 copy number >2.5). RESULTS: Median OS was 78.5 months [95% confidence interval (CI) 64.3-not reached (NR)] for eribulin and was NR for taxane, with a hazard ratio of 1.25 (95% CI 0.92-1.71, log-rank P = 0.19). The 60-month OS rates were 59.7% and 65.2% for eribulin and taxane, respectively. Median OS and 60-month OS rates were numerically lower in ctDNA PIK3CAm+ patients, and greater in ctDNA HER2 amp+ patients for all patients and with stratification by treatment group. There were no statistical interactions between treatment group with either ctDNA PIK3CAm or ctDNA HER2 amp status. Similar patterns were observed for PFS. CONCLUSION: Final survival analysis revealed that median OS exceeded 6 years with eribulin or physician-choice taxane, combined with trastuzumab plus pertuzumab, as first-line chemotherapy for HER2-positive LABC/MBC, with no significant differences between the two groups. ctDNA PIK3CAm+ status was a poor prognostic factor. ctDNA HER2 amp+ was associated with longer survival.

Para-cavernous sinus venous structures: anatomic variations and pathologic conditions evaluated on fat-suppressed 3D fast gradient-echo MR images.

BACKGROUND: The cavernous sinus communicates with several para-cavernous sinus venous structures, receiving blood flow from the superficial middle cerebral vein (SMCV), the sphenoparietal sinus (SPS), and the superior ophthalmic vein, and draining into the superior and inferior petrosal sinuses and pterygoid and basilar plexuses. Anatomic variations of these veins have been previously reported; however, some details, such as the relationship between the SPS and the SMCV, are incompletely characterized. The anatomic variations of para-cavernous sinus veins, especially drainage patterns of the SMCV, were evaluated on MR imaging. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirty-seven patients, including those without any lesions affecting the cavernous sinus or para-cavernous veins and patients with carotid cavernous fistulas, were examined by using fat-suppressed contrast-enhanced 3D fast gradient-echo MR imaging. Two neuroradiologists evaluated the images on a viewer, regarding the normal anatomy and the pathologic findings of the para-cavernous sinus veins. RESULTS: The fat-suppressed 3D fast gradient-echo MR images clearly depicted the para-cavernous sinus venous structures in all patients. SMCVs had 4 variations in the drainage patterns. The most frequent pattern was drainage into the SPS (39%), and other types were draining into cavernous sinus, pterygoid plexus, and tentorial sinus. The SPS had 3 variations. The most frequent pattern was drainage into cavernous sinus (72%), and others were the hypoplastic type or those draining into pterygoid plexus. CONCLUSION: The fat-suppressed 3D fast gradient-echo MR image is useful for evaluating the venous structures in the skull base. Knowledge of the variations is important for diagnosis and endovascular treatment of the cavernous sinus lesions.

Clinical significance of Caveolin-1, Caveolin-2 and HER2/neu mRNA expression in human breast cancer.

Caveolin-1 and -2 (CAV1, CAV2) are closely linked genes localised to the fragile region of 7q31 (FRA7G), and loss of heterozygosity involving this region has been reported in breast cancer. Several studies have suggested that CAV1 is a negative regulator of HER2/neu signal transduction in vitro. However, the clinical significance of CAV1 in breast cancer has not yet been clarified. We examined quantitatively the mRNA levels of CAV1, CAV2 and HER2/neu in 162 cases of breast cancer using real-time PCR. Caveolin-1 and -2 protein expression was also examined by Western blotting and immunohistochemistry. We then evaluated for correlations between CAV1, CAV2 and HER2/neu gene expression and clinicopathologic factors in the 162 breast cancer cases. Results showed higher HER2/neu mRMA levels and lower CAV1 and CAV2 mRMA levels in breast cancer tissues than in corresponding normal tissues (P<0.001). Caveolin-1 and -2 protein expression levels were also suppressed in cancer tissues compared to normal tissues by Western blotting. Immunohistochemistry revealed that CAV1 and CAV2 proteins were abundantly expressed in mammary gland myoepithelial cells, but only weakly in ductalepithelial cells. Reduced CAV1 mRNA level was significantly associated with increasing tumour size (P=0.041), and negative oestrogen receptor status (P=0.021). There was also a significant association between low CAV2 mRNA level and negative progesterone receptor status (P=0.013), and between high HER2/neu mRNA level and negative hormonal receptor status (ER, P=0.029, PgR, P=0.019). While there was no relationship between HER2/neu and CAV1 mRNA levels, a significant association between CAV1 and CAV2 mRNA levels was observed (P<0.001). Our results indicated that CAV1 suppression correlated closely with that of CAV2 in breast cancer, that CAV1 level was inversely correlated with tumour size, and that CAV1 and CAV2 levels were correlated with hormonal receptor status. Therefore, CAV1 and CAV2 play an important role in tumour progression in breast cancer patients.

Epitope analysis of the cerebrospinal fluid IgG in HTLV-I associated myelopathy patients using phage display method.

We, for the first time, analyzed the binding motifs of immunoglobulin G (IgG) in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of human T lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I)-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) patients with a phage library displaying 12-mer random peptides. As a result, the sequences highly homologous to HTLV-I gp46 192-199, 237-243 and 255-261 were the common linear epitopes of high affinity- IgG exclusively detected in both CSF and sera of the patients. These IgG responses were confirmed with corresponding HTLV-I peptides and serum antibody titers significantly correlated with disease severity or duration. Gp46 237-243 has not been detected in previous enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) studies using bound longer peptides, suggesting the usefulness of the phage display method.

[Technique for vascular management under thoracoscopic surgery].

Vascular injury is the most life-threatening complication under thoracoscopic surgery. To reduce the risk of vascular injury, knowledge of the anatomy of the pulmonary artery, variations in its branching, skillful techniques and careful maneuver are necessary. Pulmonary artery being adherent to bronchus is dangerous to dissect under thoracoscopy, so it is better to convert to open thoracotomy. A3 of the left upper lobe is occasionally injured during dissection. It is a safety technique for using vascular stapler under thoracoscopic surgery. Stapler leader can allow the passage of a stapler to encircle the vessel.

Transcription analysis of rpoH in Pseudomonas putida.

We previously determined the complete DNA sequence of the rpoH gene encoding the heat-shock sigma factor (sigmaH) of Pseudomonas putida. In the present study, the transcriptional start sites of rpoH were determined to be 41 nucleotides (T1), 153 nucleotides (T2) and 157 nucleotides (T3) upstream from the translational start codon (AUG) of rpoH by rapid amplification of cDNA 5'-ends. Based on the locations of T2 and T3, a sigma70-type promoter (P2) was determined to be located in the open reading frame region of upstream ftsX in addition to the sigmaE-type promoter (P1; DNA Res. 6 (1999) 241). In the in vitro transcription assay with reconstituted RNA polymerases (Esigma70, EsigmaE, EsigmaH and EsigmaS) of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, EsigmaE transcribed rpoH from T1 and Esigma(70) transcribed it from T2 and T3. In both cases, the level of transcription was higher at 42 degrees C than at 30 degrees C. No transcript was detected when EsigmaH or EsigmaS was used. These results indicate that EsigmaE and Esigma70 recognize P1 promoter and P2 promoter, respectively, and also prove that the synthesis of rpoH mRNA is inducible upon heat shock.

beta-amyloid peptides enhance alpha-synuclein accumulation and neuronal deficits in a transgenic mouse model linking Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease.

Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease are associated with the cerebral accumulation of beta-amyloid and alpha-synuclein, respectively. Some patients have clinical and pathological features of both diseases, raising the possibility of overlapping pathogenetic pathways. We generated transgenic (tg) mice with neuronal expression of human beta-amyloid peptides, alpha-synuclein, or both. The functional and morphological alterations in doubly tg mice resembled the Lewy-body variant of Alzheimer's disease. These mice had severe deficits in learning and memory, developed motor deficits before alpha-synuclein singly tg mice, and showed prominent age-dependent degeneration of cholinergic neurons and presynaptic terminals. They also had more alpha-synuclein-immunoreactive neuronal inclusions than alpha-synuclein singly tg mice. Ultrastructurally, some of these inclusions were fibrillar in doubly tg mice, whereas all inclusions were amorphous in alpha-synuclein singly tg mice. beta-Amyloid peptides promoted aggregation of alpha-synuclein in a cell-free system and intraneuronal accumulation of alpha-synuclein in cell culture. beta-Amyloid peptides may contribute to the development of Lewy-body diseases by promoting the aggregation of alpha-synuclein and exacerbating alpha-synuclein-dependent neuronal pathologies. Therefore, treatments that block the production or accumulation of beta-amyloid peptides could benefit a broader spectrum of disorders than previously anticipated.

Effect of three flavonoids, 5,7,3',4'-tetrahydroxy-3-methoxy flavone, luteolin, and quercetin, on the stimulus-induced superoxide generation and tyrosyl phosphorylation of proteins in human neutrophil.

The effect of three flavonoids, 5,7,3',4'-tetrahydoxy-3-methoxy flavone (THMF), luteolin, and quercetin, on the stimulus-induced superoxide generation and tyrosyl phosphorylation of proteins in human neutrophils were investigated. When the cells were preincubated with these flavonoids, the superoxide generation induced by N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP) was significantly suppressed, showing a dependence on amounts of the flavonoid. The suppressing effect of the flavonoid was THMF > luteolin > quercetin. These flavonoids also suppressed the superoxide generation induced by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. In this case also, THMF was more effective than luteolin and quercetin. On the other hand, the superoxide generation induced by arachidonic acid was markedly suppressed by quercetin. The suppressing effect was quercetin >> THMF > luteolin. THMF, luteolin, and quercetin significantly suppressed tyrosyl phosphorylation of 80.1-, 58.0-, and 45.0-kDa proteins in fMLP-treated human neutrophils. The suppression depended on the concentration of the flavonoids, and the inhibition of tyrosyl phosphorylation was in parallel to that of the fMLP-induced superoxide generation, respectively. While luteolin and quercetin showed a weak hemolytic activity at 2.5 mM, THMF showed almost no hemolytic activity even at 5 mM, suggesting an advantage of THMF for its clinical use.

The activation of dopamine D4 receptors inhibits oxidative stress-induced nerve cell death.

Oxidative stress is thought to be the cause of nerve cell death in many CNS pathologies, including ischemia, trauma, and neurodegenerative disease. Glutamate kills nerve cells that lack ionotropic glutamate receptors via the inhibition of the cystine-glutamate antiporter x(c)(-), resulting in the inhibition of cystine uptake, the loss of glutathione, and the initiation of an oxidative stress cell death pathway. A number of catecholamines were found to block this pathway. Specifically, dopamine and related ligands inhibit glutamate-induced cell death in both clonal nerve cell lines and rat cortical neurons. The protective effects of dopamine, apomorphine, and apocodeine, but not epinephrine and norepinephrine, are antagonized by dopamine D4 antagonists. A dopamine D4 agonist also protects, and this protective effect is inhibited by U101958, a dopamine D4 antagonist. Although the protective effects of some of the catecholamines are correlated with their antioxidant activities, there is no correlation between the protective and antioxidant activities of several other ligands. Normally, glutamate causes an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) and intracellular Ca(2+). Apomorphine partially inhibits glutamate-induced ROS production and blocks the opening of cGMP-operated Ca(2+) channels that lead to Ca(2+) elevation in the late part of the cell death pathway. These data suggest that the protective effects of apomorphine on oxidative stress-induced cell death are, at least in part, mediated by dopamine D4 receptors via the regulation of cGMP-operated Ca(2+) channels.

Design, synthesis, and discovery of a novel CCR1 antagonist.

The CC chemokines may play an important role in the pathogenesis of chronic inflammatory diseases including rheumatoid arthritis, and their effects are thought to be mediated through CCR1 receptors. Several nonpeptide CCR1 receptor antagonists that showed high affinity for human CCR1 receptors have been identified; however, their effectiveness in animal models of inflammatory diseases has been scarcely demonstrated, probably due to species selectivity of the antagonists. To elucidate the pathophysiological role of CCR1 receptors in murine models of disease, we looked for a potent antagonist for both murine and human CCR1 receptors. Screening of our chemical collection for inhibition of (125)I-MIP-1alpha binding to human CCR1 receptors transfected in CHO cells led to the identification of xanthene-9-carboxamide 1a as the lead compound. Derivatization of 1a by quaternarizing the piperidine nitrogen with various alkyl groups and by installing substituents into the xanthene moiety dramatically improved the inhibitory activity against both human and murine CCR1 receptors. As a result, 2q-1 showing IC(50) values of 0.9 and 5.8 nM for human and murine CCR1 receptors, respectively, was discovered. This compound is the first murine CCR1 receptor antagonist and may be a useful tool for clarifying the role of CCR1 receptors in murine models of disease.

Flavonoids protect neuronal cells from oxidative stress by three distinct mechanisms.

Flavonoids are a family of antioxidants found in fruits and vegetables as well as in popular beverages such as red wine and tea. Although the physiological benefits of flavonoids have been largely attributed to their antioxidant properties in plasma, flavonoids may also protect cells from various insults. Nerve cell death from oxidative stress has been implicated in a variety of pathologies, including stroke, trauma, and diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. To determine the potential protective mechanisms of flavonoids in cell death, the mouse hippocampal cell line HT-22, a model system for oxidative stress, was used. In this system, exogenous glutamate inhibits cystine uptake and depletes intracellular glutathione (GSH), leading to the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and an increase in Ca(2+) influx, which ultimately causes neuronal death. Many, but not all, flavonoids protect HT-22 cells and rat primary neurons from glutamate toxicity as well as from five other oxidative injuries. Three structural requirements of flavonoids for protection from glutamate are the hydroxylated C3, an unsaturated C ring, and hydrophobicity. We also found three distinct mechanisms of protection. These include increasing intracellular GSH, directly lowering levels of ROS, and preventing the influx of Ca(2+) despite high levels of ROS. These data show that the mechanism of protection from oxidative insults by flavonoids is highly specific for each compound.

Effect of six compounds isolated from rhizome of Anemone raddeana on the superoxide generation in human neutrophil.

The effect of six compounds isolated from rhizome of Anemone raddeana on the superoxide generation in human neutrophils was investigated. The six compounds examined were 3-acetyloleanolic acid (AOA), oleanolic acid (OA), eleutheroside K (EK), oleanolic acid-3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 --> 2)-[beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 --> 4)]-alpha-L-arabinopyranoside (Rd10), raddeanoside 12 (Rd12) and raddeanoside 13 (Rd13). AOA, OA, Rd12 and Rd13 suppressed the superoxide generation induced by N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP) in a concentration-dependent manner. EK and Rd10 significantly enhanced the fMLP-induced superoxide generation in a specific narrow range of low concentration (0.5-0.75 microM), while these compounds more efficiently suppressed the superoxide generation than the other four compounds in other concentrations. In the case of superoxide generation induced by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), Rd12, OA, EK and Rd10 dose-dependently suppressed the superoxide generation but AOA and Rd13 gave no effect. Arachidonic acid-induced superoxide generation was suppressed by EK, Rd10, Rd12 and Rd13, but was weakly enhanced by AOA and OA. Rd12 dose-dependently inhibited fMLP-induced tyrosyl phosphorylation of 123.0, 79.4, 60.3, 56.2 and 50.1 kDa proteins in human neutrophil. On the other hand, RD10 and EK enhanced the tyrosyl phosphorylation of these proteins in a low concentration range. These phenomena were parallel to the suppression of the fMLP-induced superoxide generations.

Phosphatidylglycerol participates in syncytium formation induced by HTLV type 1-bearing cells.

We previously reported that 71-kDa heat shock cognate protein (HSC70) was expressed on the cell surface of human T cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1)-susceptible cells and that HSC70, beta-actin, and a lipid-like component on the target cell membrane participated in syncytium formation by HTLV-1. We have now identified this lipid-like component to be palmitoyl (16:0)-oleoyl (18:1)-phosphatidylglycerol (POPG), using preparative thin-layer chromatographic fractionation and tandem mass spectrometric analysis. In the syncytium formation assay, exogenously added PG inhibited cell-to-cell transmission of HTLV-1 in a dose-dependent manner. Other phospholipids showed less (PE) or no effect (PC, PS, PI, PA, lysoPC, lysoPE, and CL). Binding experiments showed that PG interacted with three synthetic peptides, gp46--111, gp46--197, and gp21--400, which correspond to regions Lys111--Asp138 and Asp197--Leu216 on the gp46 surface glycoprotein, and to region Cys400--Leu429 on the gp21 transmembrane glycoprotein, respectively, as well as with intact gp46 and gp21 proteins of HTLV-1. On the other hand, HSC70 and beta-actin interacted with gp46--197 and gp46, not with gp46--111. However, the eluate from an affinity column coupled with gp46--111 contained not only PG but also HSC70 and beta-actin, despite the lack of direct interaction between gp46--111 and these proteins. In the in vitro binding assay, HSC70 showed interaction with both PG and beta-actin, while there was no evidence of any interaction between PG and beta-actin. These results suggest that HSC70 molecules on target cell surface interact with both PG in lipid bilayers and intracellular beta-actin and that these three cellular components form a receptor complex that plays a critical role in syncytium formation induced by HTLV-1-bearing cells.

Effect of sarsasapogenin and its derivatives on the stimulus coupled responses of human neutrophils.

METHODS: The effects of three sapogenins (sarsasapogenin, tigogenin and hecogenin) on the stimulus-induced superoxide generation and protein tyrosyl phosphorylation in human neutrophils were investigated. RESULTS: When the cells were preincubated with sapogenin, three sapogenins dose-dependently suppressed the superoxide generations induced by N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP) and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), respectively. In both cases, their effects were in the order: sarsasapogenin>tigogenin>hecogenin. While sarsasapogenin suppressed the superoxide generation induced by arachidonic acid (AA) as well, the superoxide generation was scarcely suppressed by tigogenin and significantly enhanced by hecogenin. In parallel to their effects on the superoxide generation, the three sapogenins dose-dependently suppressed the fMLP-induced and PMA-induced tyrosyl phosphorylations of 45 kDa protein in neutrophils, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Of the sapogenins tested, sarsasapogenin may have the most clinical use as it suppresses superoxide generation.

Prognostic significance of thrombomodulin expression and vascular invasion in stage I squamous cell carcinoma of the lung.

Thrombomodulin (TM) is an important modulator of intravascular coagulation. TM exists on endothelial cells and on several types of tumor cells, especially squamous cell carcinoma cells. Tumor cell TM is thought to be associated with progression and metastasis of the tumor. To evaluate the prognostic significance of TM in lung cancer, we examined TM expression and vascular invasion in surgical specimens obtained from 90 patients with completely resected stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In addition, we correlate these pathologic data to other clinicopathologic data, including the outcome of the patients. Squamous cell carcinomas had a significantly higher incidence (P<0.0001) of TM expression (22/36 cases, 61%) than adenocarcinomas (9/54 cases, 17%). In 36 squamous cell carcinoma patients, both vascular invasion (P=0.0153; risk ratio 6.507) and TM non-expression (P=0.0282; risk ratio 3.584) were significant for a poor prognosis. Univariate analysis of patient survival rates also revealed that vascular invasion and TM expression were significant prognostic factors (P=0.0036 and 0.012, respectively). Further, combination analysis of vascular invasion and TM expression in the squamous cell carcinoma patients showed that the 5-year survival rate was 90% in patients with TM expression and without vascular invasion, but 21% in patients with vascular invasion and without TM expression (P=0.0004). Since our results suggest that vascular invasion and TM expression are independent prognostic factors of stage I squamous cell carcinoma of the lung, and since the two factors play different roles in the metastatic process of cancers (promotion of metastasis by vascular invasion and inhibition of metastasis by TM expression), the combination evaluation of vascular invasion and TM expression may be very significant in evaluating the prognosis of patients with completely resected stage I squamous cell carcinoma.

Detection of serum thermolabile beta-2 macroglycoprotein (Hakata antigen) by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using polysaccharide produced by Aerococcus viridans.

Although a serum thermolabile beta-2 macroglycoprotein (TMG) may play a role in host defense as a lectin, little is known of its related physiological functions, mainly due to a lack of appropriate methods for tracing the functions of TMG. We identified a polysaccharide from Aerococcus viridans, PSA, which reacts with TMG, and based on this finding, we developed an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to trace the functions of TMG. Using ethanol precipitation and DEAE-Sepharose and Sephacryl S-400 column chromatographies, we isolated PSA from cultured medium of A. viridans, and it exhibited specific binding against TMG in blood samples. In sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), the isolated PSA showed ladder bands that implied the existence of repeating units composed of D-glucose, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, D-mannose, and D-xylose, as confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. SDS-PAGE and immunochemical analysis, using rabbit anti-TMG antibody, showed that PSA specifically binds solely to intact serum TMG but not to TMG heated at 56 degrees C for 30 min, a condition under which antigenicity is lost. TMG in serum samples bound to PSA in a dose-dependent manner, and this binding was clearly suppressed by addition of PSA. These observations indicate that PSA is a useful adsorbent to TMG and can be used to develop appropriate methods for tracing the functions of TMG.
