Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:cancers15020529. [PMID: 36672478 PMCID: PMC9856493 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15020529] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2022] [Revised: 01/07/2023] [Accepted: 01/12/2023] [Indexed: 01/18/2023] Open
Abstract
The medical therapy of advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is based on the use of targeted therapies, such as tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) and immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). These therapies are characterized by multiple endocrine adverse events, but the effect on the bone is still less known. Relatively few case reports or small case series have been specifically focused on TKI and ICI effects on bone metabolism. However, the importance to consider these possible side effects is easily intuitable because the bone is one of the most frequent metastatic sites of RCC. Among TKI used in RCC, sunitinib and sorafenib can cause hypophosphatemia with increased PTH levels and low-normal serum calcium levels. Considering ICI, nivolumab and ipilimumab, which can be used in association in a combination strategy, are associated with an increased risk of hypocalcemia, mediated by an autoimmune mechanism targeted on the calcium-sensing receptor. A fearsome complication, reported for TKI and rarely for ICI, is osteonecrosis of the jaw. Awareness of these possible side effects makes a clinical evaluation of RCC patients on anticancer therapy mandatory, especially if associated with antiresorptive therapy such as bisphosphonates and denosumab, which can further increase the risk of these complications.

Abstract
Dysregulation of phosphorus homeostasis resulting in hypophosphatemia is common in cancer patients and can result in serious complications and impact outcomes. Several factors, including critical illness, nutritional status, cancer type and therapy, influence the development of hypophosphatemia. Hypophosphatemia can develop as a result of phosphaturic mesenchymal tumors or as a paraneoplastic phenomenon. The clinical presentation for hypophosphatemia varies depending on the duration and severity of the hypophosphatemia and affects several organ systems. Among other serious effects, hypophosphatemia can impair tissue oxygenation and can cause hemolysis, leukocyte and platelet dysfunction, encephalopathy, seizures, arrhythmias, cardiomyopathy, rhabdomyolysis and coma. Multiple studies have demonstrated that hypophosphatemia is an adverse prognostic marker in inpatients with increased in-hospital stay, mortality and postoperative complications. The phosphate level is homeostatically regulated and maintained in a narrow range by three main hormones: parathyroid hormone, fibroblast growth factor 23 and 1,25-dihydroxyvitaminD3. Together, these hormones regulate how the intestine, kidneys and bones traffic phosphorus. Several hematological malignancies and cancer therapies are associated with proximal tubular dysfunction (Fanconi syndrome), resulting in phosphaturia. Caution should be taken with parenteral administration of phosphate salts, because secondary complications can develop, principally due to hypocalcemia. The general approach to hypophosphatemia should target the underlying cause. Early recognition and prevention are essential and the approach to hypophosphatemia in the cancer patient, because of the nuances and complexity, should be multidisciplinary.

Abstract
The use of inhibitors of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)/vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) signaling for the treatment of cancer has increased over the last decade. This signaling pathway plays a fundamental role in angiogenesis and also in kidney physiology. The emergence of anti-angiogenic therapies has led to adverse nephrotoxic effects, despite improving the outcomes of patients. In this review, we will present the different anti-angiogenic therapies targeting the VEGFR pathway in association with the incidence of renal manifestations during their use. In addition, we will discuss, in detail, the pathophysiological mechanisms of frequent renal diseases such as hypertension, proteinuria, renal dysfunction, and electrolyte disorders. Finally, we will outline the cellular damage described following these therapies.

Abstract
The use of laboratory assays in the diagnostic care of oncology patients can markedly increase the efficacy of cancer treatments. Many cancer-specific biomarker assays have been developed. However, the use of these has some limitations due to their cost. Moreover, not every diagnostic laboratory can perform a complete set of these assays. On the other hand, the smart use of conventional clinical chemistry tests could improve the management of cancer. They could be especially valuable tools in the long-term care of patients with a verified diagnosis. In this review, we discuss the utilization of the conventional clinical chemistry assays for the diagnosis, monitoring and prognosis of various oncological diseases. The use of conventional blood tests to assess the levels of chemical elements, metabolites and proteins (including enzymatic activity measurements) in the care of oncology patients is discussed. We have shown that some clinical chemistry assays could be used in the management of distinct kinds of cancer.

Abstract
Klotho is a transmembrane protein which plays significant role in the pathogenesis of phosphate ion (Pi)-related disorders. Pi accumulation in human kidney tissues results in the major metabolic disorders due to malfunctioning of Klotho-FGFR1-FGF23 trimeric complex. The potential role of Klotho in Pi metabolism was elaborated through modeling and interaction analysis of glycosyl hydrolase (GS1 and GS2) domains with Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). In order to inhibit the association of Klotho and FGF23, binding patterns of three reported hits (N-(2-chlorophenyl)-1H-indole-3-carboxamide, N-[2-(1-cyclohexen-1-yl)ethyl]-6,7,8,9-tetrahydropyrido[1,2-e]purin-4-amine and 2-(1-propyl)amino-11-chlorothiazolo[5,4-a]acridine) were evaluated through molecular docking analysis. These inhibitors effectively targeted both GS1 and GS2 domains of Klotho at the similar sites required for FGF23 binding. To further characterize the comparative binding profile of these compounds, molecular dynamics simulation assays were performed. Taken together, current study emphasizes that Klotho may be anticipated as a target molecule in familial hypophosphatemic rickets and mentioned compounds may prove to be effective therapeutic targets against hypophosphetemia induced disorders.

Abstract
Novel targeted anti-cancer therapies have resulted in improvement in patient survival compared to standard chemotherapy. Renal toxicities of targeted agents are increasingly being recognized. The incidence, severity, and pattern of renal toxicities may vary according to the respective target of the drug. Here we review the adverse renal effects associated with a selection of currently approved targeted cancer therapies, directed to EGFR, HER2, BRAF, MEK, ALK, PD1/PDL1, CTLA-4, and novel agents targeted to VEGF/R and TKIs. In summary, electrolyte disorders, renal impairment and hypertension are the most commonly reported events. Of the novel targeted agents, ipilumumab and cetuximab have the most nephrotoxic events reported. The early diagnosis and prompt recognition of these renal adverse events are essential for the general nephrologist taking care of these patients.

A Phase II Study of Sorafenib Combined With Cetuximab in EGFR-Expressing, KRAS-Mutated Metastatic Colorectal Cancer. Clin Colorectal Cancer 2015; 14:154-61.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mutations in the KRAS gene predict for resistance to anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) therapies, including cetuximab. Upregulation of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A has been implicated in resistance to anti-EGFR treatment. Abrogation of the VEGF and RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK pathways has the potential to restore cetuximab sensitivity. PATIENTS AND METHODS Adult patients with histologically documented, measurable, EGFR-expressing, KRAS-mutated metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) that had progressed after 5-fluorouracil-based regimens were treated with sorafenib 400 mg orally twice daily and intravenous cetuximab weekly in 28-day cycles. The primary endpoint was the response rate (complete response, partial response, and stable disease at 4 cycles). The secondary endpoints included plasma biomarker analysis of angiogenic cytokines and correlative imaging studies with dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging and zirconium 89-panitumumab. RESULTS Of the 30 patients enrolled, 26 were evaluable for response. Of the 26 patients evaluated, 4 had stable disease at 4 cycles and 1 had stable disease at 8 cycles. The median progression-free survival was 1.84 months. The common toxicities were rash, diarrhea, and liver enzyme elevations. Of the angiogenic cytokines evaluated, only the placental growth factor increased significantly with treatment (P < .0001). No pharmacodynamic parameters were associated with the treatment response. CONCLUSION We report the results of a trial that combined cetuximab and sorafenib for the treatment of KRAS-mutated mCRC, with correlative imaging studies and pharmacodynamic angiogenic cytokine profiling as downstream markers of EGFR and VEGF receptor (VEGFR) signaling. No objective responses were observed. Additional development of biomarkers for patient selection is needed to evaluate combined EGFR and VEGFR blockade as a therapeutic option in KRAS-mutated CRC.

Abstract
The use of novel targeted anticancer agents has led to overall improvement in the prognosis of many patients affected by various malignancies, but has also been associated with an increased risk of poorly characterized toxic effects to different organs, including the kidneys. The high prevalence of kidney impairment in the general population complicates the issue further. Nephrologists most frequently work with patients with cancer when they are asked to investigate kidney function to assess the need for dose adjustments in anticancer therapy. A thorough knowledge of the renal safety profile of novel life-prolonging anticancer therapies, specific features of their metabolism, and pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties (under normal circumstances as well as in the setting of renal replacement therapy) is, therefore, necessary to preserve kidney function as far as possible and to ensure optimum treatment. In this Review we summarize the present knowledge of renal toxic effects from novel targeted anticancer agents and discuss whether the management of patients' treatment needs to be modified. We also advocate the development of a new onconephrology subspeciality.

Abstract
Answer questions and earn CME/CNE Advances in genomics and molecular biology have identified aberrant proteins in cancer cells that are attractive targets for cancer therapy. Because these proteins are overexpressed or dysregulated in cancer cells compared with normal cells, it was assumed that their inhibitors will be narrowly targeted and relatively nontoxic. However, this hope has not been achieved. Current targeted agents exhibit the same frequency and severity of toxicities as traditional cytotoxic agents, with the main difference being the nature of the toxic effects. Thus, the classical chemotherapy toxicities of alopecia, myelosuppression, mucositis, nausea, and vomiting have been generally replaced by vascular, dermatologic, endocrine, coagulation, immunologic, ocular, and pulmonary toxicities. These toxicities need to be recognized, prevented, and optimally managed.

Abstract
Hypophosphatemia is commonly missed due to nonspecific signs and symptoms, but it causes considerable morbidity and in some cases contributes to mortality. Three primary mechanisms of hypophosphatemia exist: increased renal excretion, decreased intestinal absorption, and shifts from the extracellular to intracellular compartments. Renal hypophosphatemia can be further divided into fibroblast growth factor 23-mediated or non-fibroblast growth factor 23-mediated causes. Proper diagnosis requires a thorough medication history, family history, physical examination, and assessment of renal tubular phosphate handling to identify the cause. During the past decade, our understanding of phosphate metabolism has grown greatly through the study of rare disorders of phosphate homeostasis. Treatment of hypophosphatemia depends on the underlying disorder and requires close biochemical monitoring. This article illustrates an approach to the hypophosphatemic patient and discusses normal phosphate metabolism.
