Cím:Targeted doxorubicin-containing luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone analogue AN-152 inhibits the growth of doxorubicin-resistant MX-1 human breast cancers / Ana M. Bajo, Andrew V. Schally, Gabor Halmos, Attila Nagy
Dátum:2003
Megjegyzések:Purpose: The receptors for luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone receptor (LHRH-R) are found in >50% of human breast cancers. Doxorubicin (DOX) was linked to [D-Lys(6)]LHRH to form a cytotoxic conjugate, AN-152, which can be targeted to tumor cells expressing LHRH-R. We evaluated the effects of AN-152 on the estrogen-independent, DOX-resistant human mammary carcinoma line MX-1, xenografted into nude mice. Experimental Design: Nude mice bearing MX-1 tumors were administered five i.v. injections of AN-152 or DOX at doses equivalent to 3 mg/kg DOX. Tumor growth was followed, and changes in the expression of LHRH-R on tumors were evaluated by radioreceptor assays, reverse transcription-PCR, and Western blotting. The effects of AN-152 on the expression of human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER)-2 were investigated. Because LHRH-R are coupled to various G proteins, which are involved in mitogenic signaling, we determined the outcome of treatment with AN-152 on the levels of mRNA for different G proteins. Results: Treatment with AN-152 significantly (P < 0.05) decreased the final tumor volume to 978.56 +/- 176.85 mm(3), compared with the control tumors, which measured 2837.38 +/- 515.38 mm(3). Tumor doubling time was likewise significantly (P < 0.05) extended by AN-152 to 12.01 +/- 1.99 days from 6.45 +/- 0.36 days for the controls. Therapy with AN-152, but not with DOX, resulted in a significant decrease of LHRH-R levels on MX-1 tumors. The expression of mRNAs for HER-2, HER-3, Galpha(i2), and Galpha(11) and the levels of HER-2 and HER-3 proteins were also significantly reduced by AN-152. Conclusions: Cytotoxic LHRH analogue AN-152 could be considered for targeted chemotherapy of DOX-resistant breast cancers expressing LHRH-R.

Cím:Effective treatment of metastatic MDA-MB-435 human estrogen-independent breast carcinomas with a targeted cytotoxic analogue of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone AN-207 / Ioulia Chatzistamou, Andrew V. Schally, Attila Nagy, Patricia Armatis, Karoly Szepeshazi, Gabor Halmos
Dátum:2000
Megjegyzések:A highly potent derivative of doxorubicin, 2-pyrrolinod-oxorubicin (AN-201), was linked to [D-Lys(6)]luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LH-RH) to form a cytotoxic analogue, AN-207, that can be targeted to LH-RT-I receptors, The effects of AN-207 were investigated in MDA-MB-435 human estrogen-independent breast carcinomas, which express LB-RH receptors, In experiment I, nude mice bearing orthotopically implanted tumors received a single i.v. injection of AN-207, AN-201, or the carrier at 250 nmol/kg, Five weeks after administration of AN-207, tumor volume was significantly decreased by 66% (P < 0.001) and tumor burden by 71% (P < 0.05) as compared with controls, but no significant effects occurred in other groups. Six of eight (75%) control animals and 37.5% of mice treated with AN-201 developed metastases in the lymph nodes, whereas no lymphatic spread was found in any of the mice that received injections of AN-207, The antitumor effect of AN-207 could be partially blocked by pretreatment of the tumor-bearing mice with high doses of agonist [D-Trp(6)]LH-RH,which suggests that AN-207 acts on LH-RH receptors on tumors. The mortality due to toxicity was 25% in the group receiving AN-201 and 12.5% in the AN-207-treated group. Radioligand binding assays revealed the presence of high-affinity binding sites for LH-RH on tumor membranes, and mRNA for LH-RH receptors was demonstrated by reverse transcription-PCR, In experiment 2, two i.v. injections of AN-207 or AN-201 at 150 nmol/kg were given on days 0 and 28 to mice bearing orthotopic xenografts of MDA-MB-435, The outcome of the treatment was similar to that observed in experiment 1, but without any toxicity-related deaths, Tumor growth inhibition and prevention of metastatic disease suggest that cytotoxic LH-RH analogue AN-207 could be considered for the treatment of human estrogen-independent breast cancers expressing receptors for LH-RH.

Cím:Effective inhibition of experimental human ovarian cancers with a targeted cytotoxic bombesin analogue AN-215 / Jörg B. Engel, Gunhild Keller, Andrew V. Schally, Gabor Halmos, Brian Hammann, Attila Nagy
Dátum:2005
ISSN:1078-0432
Megjegyzések:Purpose: To determine whether the cytotoxic analogue of bombesin/gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) AN-215 can inhibit the in vivo growth of four human ovarian cancer cell lines. AN-215 consists of 2-pyrrolinodoxorubicin (AN-201), a superactive derivative of doxorubicin linked to a bombesin antagonist carrier des-D-Tpi-RC-3095. This conjugate binds strongly to receptors for bombesin/GRP and can be targeted to tumors that express these receptors. Bombesin/GRP receptors are found in 77% of human ovarian cancer specimens. Experimental Design: Nude mice bearing xenografts of ES-2, SKOV-3, OV-1063, and UCI-107 human ovarian carcinomas were treated with AN-215. The antitumor effects and the toxicity were determined. The expression of bombesin receptor subtypes was measured by reverse-transcriptase PCR analysis, and the presence of bombesin/GRP receptors was determined by radioligand binding assays. Results: AN-215 significantly (P < 0.05) inhibited growth of ES-2, OV-1063, and UCI-107 tumors, prevented the metastatic spread of ES-2 cancers, and prolonged the survival of nude mice bearing i.p. ES-2 xenografts. Cytotoxic radical AN-201, the unconjugated mixture of bombesin antagonist RC-3095 and AN-201 or RC-3095 alone had no significant effects. Blockade of bombesin/GPP receptors abolished the effect of AN-215. The expression of bombesin/GRP receptors was not changed after repeated treatment with AN-215. Conclusions: Our findings indicate that targeted chemotherapy with cytotoxic bombesin/GRP analogue AN-215 can inhibit ovarian tumors, which express bombesin/GRP receptors. AN-215 might provide a new treatment modality for women with advanced ovarian carcinoma.

Cím:Characterization of bombesin/gastrin-releasing peptide receptors in human breast cancer and their relationship to steroid receptor expression / Gabor Halmos, James L. Wittliff, Andrew V. Schally
Dátum:1995
Megjegyzések:Bombesin (BN) and its mammalian counterpart, gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP), are hormonally active peptides which appear to function as autocrine or paracrine growth factors in a variety of cells. As part of a long-term investigation of the relationship of peptide and steroid hormone receptors to breast cancer progression and treatment, we examined the binding of [125I-Tyr4]BN to membranes isolated from 100 human breast carcinomas. Thirty-three of these tumors expressed BN/GRP receptor levels of > 10 fmol/mg membrane protein. Two classes of [Tyr4]BN-binding sites were detected using Scatchard analyses of radioligand association data from hormone displacement curves. The high-affinity binding sites exhibited a mean dissociation constant (Kd1) of 2.1 nM and a mean specific binding capacity (Bmax1) of 237 fmol/mg membrane protein. The low affinity binding sites had a mean dissociation constant (Kd2) of 0.3 microM and a mean binding capacity (Bmax2) of 5.9 pmol/mg membrane protein. BN/GRP receptor expression in a breast carcinoma was unrelated to patient age. When the levels of BN/GRP receptors were compared to the content of the sex steroid receptors, a highly significant positive correlation (P < 0.005) was observed between the binding capacities of high-affinity [Tyr4]BN-binding sites and estrogen receptor levels and between the concentrations of low affinity [Tyr4]BN-binding sites and progestin receptor levels (P < 0.05). This represents the first report of these labile, regulatory proteins in biopsies of human breast carcinomas. Expression of specific receptor proteins for BN/GRP, potent mitogens, in a large number of human breast cancers suggests that they may be involved in tumor cell progression. The approach based on determination of BN/GRP receptors might be useful to guide a hormonal therapy with BN/GRP antagonists in some women with breast cancer.

Cím:Administration of a targeted cytotoxic analog of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone inhibits growth of estrogen-independent MDA-MB-231 human breast cancers in nude mice / Zsuzsanna Kahán, Attila Nagy, Andrew V. Schally, Gábor Halmos, José M. Arencibia, Kate Groot
Dátum:2000
ISSN:0167-6806
Megjegyzések:Receptor targeted chemotherapy is less toxic and more effective than conventional chemotherapy. Receptors for luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LH-RH) are found in about 50% of human breast cancers. Highly potent cytotoxic radical 2-pyrrolinodoxorubicin (AN-201) was linked to the agonistic analog [D-Lys6]LH-RH to form cytotoxic LH-RH analog AN-207. We evaluated whether AN-207 could be targeted to the hormone-independent MDA-MB-231 human breast cancers. Nude mice bearing MDA-MB-231 tumors were injected i.v. with 250 nmol/kg doses of cytotoxic radical AN-201, cytotoxic LH-RH analog AN-207, the unconjugated mixture of AN-201 and carrier [D-Lys6]LH-RH, [D-Lys6]LH-RH alone and vehicle (control). The growth of MDA-MB-231 tumors in animals given a single dose of AN-207 was inhibited significantly (p = 0.01) for 3 weeks after injection, whereas tumors in all the other groups grew steadily. All cytotoxic compounds produced leukopenia, but the strongest lymphocyte suppression was caused by cytotoxic radical AN-201. Three weeks after treatment, the presence of mRNA for LH-RH receptors was demonstrated by RT-PCR in all the groups and radioreceptor assays demonstrated high-affinity binding sites for LH-RH on tumor cell membranes of control animals and those treated with AN-201, the carrier peptide alone or in combination with AN-201. At this time point binding assays did not reveal the expression of membrane proteins in tumors treated with AN-207, but 60 days after administration of AN-207, high affinity LH-RH binding sites were found again in MDA-MB-231 tumors. These results indicate that cytotoxic LH-RH analog AN-207 could be utilized for receptor targeted chemotherapy of breast cancers expressing receptors for LH-RH.

Cím:Antagonists of growth hormone-releasing hormone arrest the growth of MDA-MB-468 estrogen-independent human breast cancers in nude mice / Zsuzsanna Kahán, József L. Varga, Andrew V. Schally, Zoltán Rékási, Patricia Armatis, Ioulia Chatzistamou, Tamás Czömpöly, Gábor Halmos

Megjegyzések:Since antagonists of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GH-RH) inhibit proliferation of various tumors, in this study we investigated the effects of GH-RH antagonists MZ-5-156 or JV-1-36 on growth of estrogen-independent MDA-MB-468 human breast cancers xenografted into nude mice. Both GH-RH antagonists administered at a dose of 20 microg/day induced regression of some and growth-arrest of other tumors, while control tumors continued to grow. After 5 weeks of therapy with MZ-5-156 or JV-1-36, final volume and weight of MDA-MB-468 tumors were significantly decreased (all p values < 0.001) and serum IGF-I levels as well as tumor IGF-I mRNA expression were reduced as compared with controls. High affinity binding sites for IGF-I were detected by the ligand binding method. Gene expression of human IGF-I receptors, as measured by the RT-PCR, was not significantly different in control and treated MDA-MB-468 tumors. In cell culture, IGF-I did not stimulate, GH-RH slightly stimulated, while MZ-5-156 and JV-1-36 inhibited proliferation of MDA-MB-468 cells known to possess defective insulin and IGF-I receptor signaling. The expression of mRNA for human GH-RH was found in five of 8 tumors treated with GH-RH antagonists, and in one of the five control tumors. These results suggest that GH-RH antagonists inhibit MDA-MB-468 breast cancers possibly through mechanisms involving interference with locally produced GH-RH.

Cím:Human malignant melanomas express receptors for luteinizing hormone releasing hormone allowing targeted therapy with cytotoxic luteinizing hormone releasing hormone analogue / Gunhild Keller, Andrew V. Schally, Timo Gaiser, Attila Nagy, Benjamin Baker, Gabriela Westphal, Gabor Halmos, Jörg B. Engel

Megjegyzések:Cytotoxic analogue of luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH), AN-207, binds with high affinity to LHRH receptors and can be targeted to tumors expressing these receptors. We investigated the expression of LHRH receptors in surgical specimens of human malignant melanoma and evaluated the effects of AN-207 in models of human melanoma. Human melanoma specimens derived from primary tumors or metastases were examined for LHRH receptor expression by immunohistochemistry. Binding assays, Western immunoblotting, and reverse transcription-PCR analyses were used to investigate LHRH receptors in MRI-H255 and MRI-H187 transplantable human melanoma tumor lines. Antitumor effects of AN-207 and its components were evaluated in vivo in nude mice bearing xenografts of either melanoma tumor line. All 19 human melanoma specimens examined showed positive staining for LHRH receptors. The mRNA for LHRH receptors, receptor protein and binding sites for LHRH were detected in both transplantable melanoma tumor lines. AN-207 significantly inhibited the growth of MRI-H255 and MRI-H187 xenografts in vivo, reducing tumor volume by 59.9% to 79.2% and tumor weight by 61.0% to 76.9% (all P < 0.05). The components of AN-207 (LH-RH analogue carrier and cytotoxic radical AN-201 as single drugs or as an unconjugated mixture) had no significant effects. Blockade of LHRH receptors by an excess of LHRH agonist Decapeptyl suppressed the effects of AN-207. LHRH receptors are expressed in a very high percentage of human malignant melanoma specimens and can be used for targeted chemotherapy with cytotoxic LHRH analogue AN-207.

Cím:Receptors for luteinizing hormone releasing hormone expressed on human renal cell carcinomas can be used for targeted chemotherapy with cytotoxic luteinizing hormone releasing hormone analogues / Gunhild Keller, Andrew V. Schally, Timo Gaiser, Attila Nagy, Benjamin Baker, Gabor Halmos, Jörg B. Engel
Dátum:2005
ISSN:1078-0432
Megjegyzések:PURPOSE: To determine the expression of luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH) receptors in specimens and cell lines of human renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and to evaluate the antitumor efficacy of targeted therapy with a cytotoxic analogue of LHRH, AN-207, in vivo. AN-207, consisting of [D-Lys(6)] LHRH linked to a cytotoxic radical, 2-pyrrolinodoxorubicin (AN-201), binds with high affinity to LHRH receptors and can be targeted to tumors expressing these receptors. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: The expression of LHRH receptors was investigated in 28 surgically removed specimens of human renal cell carcinoma (RCC) by immunohistochemistry and in three human RCC cell lines A-498, ACHN, and 786-0 by radioreceptor assays, Western immunoblotting, and reverse transcription-PCR analysis. Antitumor efficacy of AN-207 was examined in experimental models of these cell lines. RESULTS: Positive staining for LHRH receptors was found in all (28 of 28) of the examined human RCC specimens. mRNA for LHRH receptor, receptor protein, and LHRH binding sites were detected in all three cell lines. AN-207 significantly (P < 0.05) inhibited the growth of A-498, ACHN, and 786-0 xenografts in vivo producing a 67.8% to 73.8% decrease in tumor volume and a 62.2% to 77.3% reduction in tumor weight. Nontargeted cytotoxic radical AN-201 had no significant antitumor effects. Blockade of LHRH receptors by an excess of LHRH agonist Decapeptyl suppressed tumor inhibitory effects of AN-207. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings indicate that LHRH receptors are expressed in human RCC specimens and can be used for targeted chemotherapy with cytotoxic LHRH analogues.

Cím:Regression of U-87 MG human glioblastomas in nude mice after treatment with a cytotoxic somatostatin analog AN-238 / Hippokratis Kiaris, Andrew V. Schally, Attila Nagy, Baodong Sun, Karoly Szepeshazi, Gabor Halmos
Dátum:2000
Megjegyzések:Receptors for somatostatin (SST) found on brain tumors could be used for targeting of chemotherapeutic agents. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of targeted cytotoxic SST analogue AN-238, consisting of 2-pyrrolinodoxorubicin (AN-201), a potent derivative of doxorubicin (DOX) linked to somatostatin analogue RC-121, on the growth of SST receptor-positive U-87 MG human glioblastomas. Nude mice bearing U-87 MG xenografts received i.v. saline or equimolar doses of AN-238 or AN-201 (150 nmol/kg). Experiments also included groups that were administered RC-121 prior to the injection of AN-238, and groups injected with AN-162, a cytotoxic SST analogue similar to AN-238 but containing DOX instead of AN-201. Tumor volume, weight, and burden were determined. The effect of AN-238 and AN-201 on the survival time of nude mice bearing orthotopically implanted U-87 MG tumors was also evaluated. The binding of AN-238 to U-87 MG tumors was determined by radioreceptor assay and SST receptor (SSTR) subtype by reverse transcription-PCR. Nineteen days after a single administration of AN-238 the growth of U-87 MG tumors in nude mice was significantly inhibited (P = 0.00168), whereas two injections of AN-238 produced the regression of tumors (P = 0.0046). AN-201 was toxic and ineffective at the same dose. The antitumor effect on AN-238 could be blocked by pretreatment of the tumor-bearing mice with RC-121. The mean survival time of nude mice inoculated orthotopically with U-87 MG cells into the brain was significantly prolonged by treatment with AN-238 (P = 0.0099). AN-162 failed to inhibit significantly the growth of U-87 MG xenografts. High affinity binding sites for SST and mRNA for SST-2 receptor subtype were detected in U-87 MG tumors. Cytotoxic SST analogue AN-238 can be targeted to SST receptors on U-87 MG human glioblastomas to produce powerful inhibition of growth.

Cím:Targeted cytotoxic analogue of somatostatin AN-238 inhibits growth of androgen-independent Dunning R-3327-AT-1 prostate cancer in rats at nontoxic doses / Miklos Koppan, Attila Nagy, Andrew V. Schally, Jose M. Arencibia, Artur Plonowski, Gabor Halmos
Dátum:1998
Megjegyzések:Receptors for somatostatin (SST) that are found on prostate cancers might be used for targeting of chemotherapeutic agents. Thus, doxorubicin derivative 2-pyrrolinodoxorubicin (AN-201) can be linked to SST analogue RC-121 (D-Phe-Cys-Tyr-D-Trp-Lys-Val-Cys-Thr-NH2) to form targeted cytotoxic SST analogue AN-238. In this study, we evaluated the effects of AN-238 on the growth of SST receptor (SSTR)-positive androgen-independent Dunning R-3327-AT-1 prostate cancers in Copenhagen rats. The dose range and tumor growth-inhibitory effects of AN-238 and AN-201 were investigated in preliminary experiments. Administration of cytotoxic radical AN-201 at single i.v. doses of 110, 125, and 150 nmol/kg resulted in 0, 77.7, and 100% mortality, respectively, within 6-10 days. Four weeks after the injection of 110 nmol/kg AN-201, mean tumor volume was reduced by 35.1 % (P < 0.05), as compared with controls. In contrast, a single i.v. injection of analogue AN-238 at a dose of 300 nmol/kg was nontoxic and remarkably potent in inhibiting the growth of Dunning AT-1 tumors, resulting in a 85.9% (P < 0.01) reduction in tumor volume after 4 weeks. Treatment with AN-238 extended the survival time of tumor-bearing rats from 52.0+/-3.75 to 91.8+/-3.70 days, corresponding to a 76.5% (P < 0.01) increase. In a comprehensive experiment, we compared the effects of radical AN-201 at 115 nmol/kg, analogue AN-238 at 115 and 300 nmol/kg, carrier SST analogue RC-121 at 300 nmol/kg, and a mixture of AN-201 and RC-121 at doses of 300 nmol/kg administered i.v. Administration of AN-201 at 115 nmol/kg led to 90.0% mortality in 12 days, but animals treated with 115 nmol/kg of AN-238 showed no signs of toxicity, their tumor volume was reduced by 40.0% (P < 0.05), and their tumor weight was reduced by 42.8% (P < 0.01) after 4 weeks, as compared with controls. The dose of 300 nmol/kg of AN-238 was also nontoxic and diminished tumor volume by 80.9% (P < 0.01) and tumor weight by 82.0% (P < 0.01). No reduction in tumor growth or toxic effects was observed with carrier RC-121, but after the injection of unconjugated mixture of AN-201 and RC-121 at doses of 300 nmol/kg, all rats died within 4 days. Specific high-affinity receptors for SST were found on Dunning R-3327-AT-1 tumor membranes by radioligand binding assay and were identified by reverse transcription-PCR as SSTR2. Our study indicates that cytotoxic SST analogue AN-238 can be targeted to SSTRs on tumors and produces a powerful inhibition of the growth of Dunning-AT-1 rat prostate cancer at doses that are nontoxic, whereas its cytotoxic component, 2-pyrrolinodoxorubicin, is toxic and ineffective.

Cím:Preclinical evaluation of targeted cytotoxic luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone analogue AN-152 in androgen-sensitive and insensitive prostate cancers / Markus Letsch, Andrew V. Schally, Karoly Szepeshazi, Gabor Halmos, Attila Nagy
Dátum:2003
Megjegyzések:To improve conventional chemotherapy, we developed cytotoxic analogues of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LH-RH), which can be targeted to prostate cancers expressing LH-RH receptors. In view of pending clinical trials on cytotoxic LH-RH analogue AN-152, containing doxorubicin (DOX) linked to [D-Lys(6])-LH-RH, we investigated the effects of AN-152 on tumor growth of s.c. implanted androgen-sensitive LNCaP and MDA-PCa-2b prostate cancers, as well as androgen-independent C4-2 prostate cancers xenografted into the tibiae of nude mice. In the C4-2 study, serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels were also measured. LH-RH receptors were analyzed by reverse transcription-PCR and ligand competition assay. We also evaluated whether AN-152 can affect mRNA expression of human epidermal growth factor receptor and HER-2 and -3 oncogenes RESULTS: After 32 days of treatment with AN-152, the growth of LNCaP cancers in castrated nude mice was strongly inhibited by 83% versus intact controls (P < 0.01) and 62% versus castrated controls (P < 0.05). In animals bearing MDA-PCa-2b prostate cancers, therapy with AN-152 for 25 days resulted in a 69% inhibition of tumor growth (P < 0.01 versus controls) and was more effective (P < 0.05) than equimolar doses of DOX or microcapsules of LH-RH agonist Decapeptyl. In nude mice bearing intraosseous C4-2 prostate cancers, treatment with AN-152 decreased serum PSA levels (P < 0.01) to 10.3 +/- 3.4 ng/ml from 24.8 +/- 4 ng/ml in controls, whereas DOX had no effect on PSA. The inhibitory effects of AN-152 on C4-2 tumors was accompanied by an increase in apoptosis and a decrease in tumor proliferation. Binding sites for LH-RH and the expression of mRNA for LH-RH receptors were found on s.c. C4-2 and MDA-PCa-2b tumors. The inhibition of MDA-PCa-2b tumors by AN-152 was associated with a significant decrease in mRNA expression for epidermal growth factor receptor, HER-2, and 3. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that cytotoxic analogue AN-152 could be considered for therapeutic trials in patients with advanced prostate carcinoma.
