Implications of all the available evidence Entrectinib is an important therapeutic option for patients with ROS1 TKI-naïve ROS1 fusion-positive NSCLC. The intracranial activity of entrectinib is of particular importance, given the frequency of CNS involvement in ROS1 fusion-positive NSCLC and the limited ability of crizotinib to penetrate the CNS.
Objective
Accumulating preclinical and epidemiologic evidence has emerged to suggest that modulation of cytochrome P450 (CYP)-mediated eicosanoid metabolism may be a viable vascular protective therapeutic strategy for the secondary prevention of coronary artery disease (CAD). The functional relationship between CYP-derived eicosanoid metabolite levels and vascular dysfunction in humans with established CAD, however, has not been evaluated. Therefore, we characterized the relationship between inter-individual variation in soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) and CYP ω-hydroxylase metabolism and established vascular function phenotypes predictive of prognosis in a cohort of patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.
Methods
Plasma epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (EET), dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acid (DHET), and 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) levels were quantified by HPLC-MS/MS in 106 patients with stable, angiographically-confirmed CAD. Relationships between biomarkers of CYP-mediated eicosanoid metabolism and vascular function phenotypes were evaluated by Pearson’s correlation.
Results
A significant inverse association was observed between 20-HETE levels (a biomarker of CYP ω-hydroxylase metabolism) and brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (r = −0.255, p = 0.010). An inverse association was also observed between 14,15-EET:DHET ratios (a biomarker of sEH metabolism) and both monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 levels (r = −0.252, p = 0.009) and a consolidated cellular adhesion molecule ‘score’ reflecting the levels of E-selectin and P-selectin (r = −0.216, p = 0.027). No associations with C-reactive protein or epithelial neutrophil-activating protein-78 levels were observed.
Conclusions
Collectively, these findings demonstrate that enhanced CYP ω-hydroxylase and sEH metabolic function are associated with more advanced endothelial dysfunction and vascular inflammation, respectively, in patients with established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. These findings lay the foundation for future clinical research in this area.
Adverse events were mostly low grade. The most common grade 3 toxicities with olaparib were anaemia (22%) and neutropenia (8%). Olaparib dose reductions, interruptions and discontinuations occurred in 28%, 52% and 12%, respectively. There was no approximately 3 years.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
