Pazopanib (GW786034) and cyclophosphamide in patients with platinum-resistant, recurrent, pre-treated ovarian cancer - Results of the PACOVAR-trial
3 views | Feb 19 2021
C Dinkic et al. thought that Pazopanib 600mg daily p.o. and metronomic cyclophosphamide 50mg daily p.o. was a feasible regimen for patients with recurrent platinum-resistant EOC and showed promising activity in this previously treated patient population. [Read the Full Post]
Targeting colony stimulating factor-1 receptor signalling to treat ectopic pregnancy
24 views | Oct 23 2020
S Furquan Ahmad et al.suggested that CSF-1 was involved in the survival and proliferation of trophoblast cells in EP and pharmacological disruption of CSF-1/CSF-1R signaling axis could be the basis of a new therapeutic for EP. [Read the Full Post]
Epithelioid glioblastoma with microglia features: Potential for novel therapy
56 views | Jul 28 2020
Nami Nakagomi et al. provided insight into the cellular nature of E-GBM and introduced several possibilities for effective targeted therapy for these patients. [Read the Full Post]
Early Long-Term Administration of the CSF1R Inhibitor PLX3397 Ablates Microglia and Reduces Accumulation of Intraneuronal Amyloid, Neuritic Plaque Deposition and Pre-Fibrillar Oligomers in 5XFAD Mouse Model of Alzheimer
88 views | May 22 2020
Justyna Sosna et al. demonstrate that CSF1R signaling, either directly on neurons or mediated by microglia, was crucial for the accumulation of intraneuronal amyloid and formation of neuritic plaques, suggesting that these two events were serially linked in a causal pathway leading to neurodegeneration and neuritic plaque formation.

Pexidartinib: First Approval
104 views | May 21 2020
Yvette N Lamb et al. summarized the milestones in the development of pexidartinib leading to its first approval for TGCT. [Read the Full Post]
Cerebrospinal fluid penetration of the colony-stimulating factor-1 receptor (CSF-1R) inhibitor, pexidartinib
106 views | May 18 2020
Shankarappa PS et al. found that pexidartinib was well-tolerated in NHPs, with no Grade 3 or Grade 4 toxicities. The CSF penetration of pexidartinib after single-dose oral administration to NHPs was limited. [Read the Full Post]
Inhibition of colony-stimulating-factor-1 signaling in vivo with the orally bioavailable cFMS kinase inhibitor GW2580
0 views | Dec 25 2019
Conway JG et al. indicated that GW2580's selective inhibition of monocyte growth and bone degradation is consistent with cFMS kinase inhibition. The ability of GW2580 to chronically inhibit CSF-1 signaling through cFMS kinase in normal and tumor cells in vivo makes GW2580 a useful tool in assessing the role of cFMS kinase in normal and disease processes.

Multicellular gene network analysis identifies a macrophage-related gene signature predictive of therapeutic response and prognosis of gliomas
140 views | Oct 08 2019
Sun X et al. identified macrophage-related gene signature has good prognostic value for predicting resistance to targeted therapeutics and survival of glioma patients, implying that combining current targeted therapies with new macrophage-targeted therapy may be beneficial for the long-term treatment outcomes of glioma patients.

Phase Ib study of the combination of pexidartinib (PLX3397), a CSF-1R inhibitor, and paclitaxel in patients with advanced solid tumors
222 views | Aug 03 2019
Wesolowski R et al. showed the combination of pexidartinib and paclitaxel was generally well tolerated. RP2D for pexidartinib was 1600 mg/day. Pexidartinib blocked CSF-1R signaling, indicating potential for mitigating macrophage tumor infiltration. [Read the Full Post]
Sustained inhibition of receptor tyrosine kinases and macrophage depletion by PLX3397 and rapamycin as a potential new approach for the treatment of MPNSTs
200 views | Jul 18 2019
Patwardhan PP et al. suggested that PLX3397 is superior to imatinib in the treatment of MPNSTs, and the combination of PLX3397 with a TORC1 inhibitor could provide a new therapeutic approach for the treatment of this disease. [Read the Full Post]
