Recombinant Methioninase Increases Eribulin Efficacy 16-fold in Highly Eribulin-resistant HT1080 Fibrosarcoma Cells, Demonstrating Potential to Overcome the Clinical Challenge of Drug-resistant Soft-tissue Sarcoma.
Background/aim: A major challenge in treating soft-tissue sarcoma is the development of drug resistance. Eribulin, an anti-tubulin agent, is used as a second-line chemotherapy for patients with unresectable or metastatic soft-tissue sarcoma. However, most patients with advanced soft-tissue sarcoma are resistant to eribulin and do not survive. Recombinant methioninase (rMETase) targets the fundamental and general hallmark of cancer, methionine addiction, termed the Hoffman Effect. The present study aimed to show how much rMETase could increase the efficacy of eribulin on eribulin-resistant fibrosarcoma cells in vitro.
Materials and methods: HT1080 human fibrosarcoma cells were exposed to step-wise increasing concentrations of eribulin from 0.15-0.4 nM to establish eribulin-resistant HT1080 (ER-HT1080). ER-HT1080 cells were cultured in vitro and divided into four groups: untreated control; eribulin treated (0.15 nM); rMETase treated (0.75 U/ml); and eribulin (0.15 nM) plus rMETase (0.75 U/ml) treated.
Results: The IC50 of eribulin on ER-HT1080 cells was 0.95 nM compared to the IC50 of 0.15 nM on HT1080 cells, a 6-fold increase. The IC50 of rMETase on ER-HT1080 and HT1080 was 0.87 U/ml and 0.75 U/ml, respectively. The combination of rMETase (0.75 U/ml) and eribulin (0.15 nM) was synergistic on ER-HT1080 cells resulting in an inhibition of 80.1% compared to eribulin alone (5.0%) or rMETase alone (47.1%) (p<0.05). rMETase thus increased the efficacy of eribulin 16-fold on eribulin-resistant fibrosarcoma cells.
Conclusion: The present study showed that the combination of eribulin and rMETase can overcome high eribulin resistance of fibrosarcoma. The present results demonstrate that combining rMETase with first- or second-line therapy for soft-tissue sarcoma has the potential to overcome the intractable clinical problem of drug-resistant soft-tissue sarcoma.
期刊介绍：
ANTICANCER RESEARCH is an independent international peer-reviewed journal devoted to the rapid publication of high quality original articles and reviews on all aspects of experimental and clinical oncology. Prompt evaluation of all submitted articles in confidence and rapid publication within 1-2 months of acceptance are guaranteed.
ANTICANCER RESEARCH was established in 1981 and is published monthly (bimonthly until the end of 2008). Each annual volume contains twelve issues and index. Each issue may be divided into three parts (A: Reviews, B: Experimental studies, and C: Clinical and Epidemiological studies).
Special issues, presenting the proceedings of meetings or groups of papers on topics of significant progress, will also be included in each volume. There is no limitation to the number of pages per issue.
