BRAF inhibitors are highly effective therapies for the treatment of BRAF(V600)-mutated melanoma, with the main toxicity being a variety of hyperproliferative skin conditions due to paradoxical activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway in BRAF wild-type cells. Most of these hyperproliferative skin changes improve when a MEK inhibitor is co-administered, as it blocks parad...
UNLABELLED Autophagy inhibition is a potential therapeutic strategy in cancer, but it is unknown which tumors will benefit. The BRAF(V600E) mutation has been identified as important in pediatric central nervous system (CNS) tumors and is known to affect autophagy in other tumor types. We evaluated CNS tumor cells with BRAF(V600E) and found that mutant (but not wild-type) cells display high rate...
Metastatic melanoma is an aggressive, rapidly progressive disease which historically had very few effective treatment options. However, since 2011, the therapeutic landscape of melanoma has undergone a dramatic transformation with two distinct approaches and has catalyzed the successful advancement in the clinical field of immuno-oncology. In addition, the recognition of a key oncogenic driver ...
Hairy-cell leukemia (HCL) is a CD20+ indolent B-cell cancer in which BRAF V600E kinase–activating mutation plays pathogenetic role. In clinical trials involving patients with refractory or relapsed HCL, the targeting of oral inhibitor vemurafenib led to response 91% patients; 35% had complete response. However, median relapse-free survival was only 9 months after treatment stopped.
In this issue of Blood, Haroche and colleagues report significant therapeutic activity of the BRAF inhibitor, vemurafenib, in 3 patients with rare histiocytic conditions, Erdheim-Chester disease and Langerhans cell histiocytosis.
Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer, primarily due to its high metastatic propensity and therapeutic resistance in advanced stages. The frequent inactivation p53 tumour suppressor protein melanomagenesis may predict promising outcomes for activators melanoma therapy. Herein, we aimed investigate antitumor potential p53-activating agent SLMP53-2 against melanoma. Two- three-dimensional...
Although the BRAF inhibitors dabrafenib and vemurafenib have both proven successful against BRAF-mutant melanoma, there seem to be differences in their mechanisms of action. Here, we show that dabrafenib is more effective at inhibiting the growth of NRAS-mutant and KRAS-mutant cancer cell lines than vemurafenib. Using mass spectrometry-based chemical proteomics, we identified NEK9 and CDK16 as ...
Approximately 5-10% of metastatic colorectal cancers harbor a BRAF-V600E mutation, which is correlated with resistance to EGFR-targeted therapies and worse clinical outcome. Vice versa, targeted inhibition of BRAF-V600E with the selective inhibitor PLX 4032 (Vemurafenib) is severely limited due to feedback re-activation of EGFR in these tumors. Mounting evidence indicates that upregulation of t...
OBJECTIVE To describe a patient with life-threatening brainstem neurohistiocytosis who recovered completely upon targeted treatment with the V600E mutation-specific BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib. METHODS We report clinical, histiologic, genetic, and sequential imaging findings, including fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-PET, over a follow-up period of 11 months. RESULTS The patient presented with cent...
UNLABELLED Resistance and partial responses to targeted monotherapy are major obstacles in cancer treatment. Systematic approaches to identify efficacious drug combinations for cancer are not well established, especially in the context of genotype. To address this, we have tested pairwise combinations of an array of small-molecule inhibitors on early-passage melanoma cultures using combinatoria...
