Brain Metastases Understanding

Brain Metastases Overview

Brain metastases are a common complication of cancer and the most common type of brain tumor. Anywhere from 10% to 26% of patients who die from their cancer will develop brain metastases. While few cancers that metastasize to the brain can be cured using conventional therapies, long-term survival and palliation are possible with minimal adverse effects to patients. Increasingly, neuro-cognition and quality of life are being recognized as important endpoints for patients as survival continues to increase.

Brain metastases are the most common type of intracranial tumor. In the United States, an estimated 98,000 to 170,000 cases occur each year. The incidence of brain metastases is increasingly likely as a result of several factors. Patients with a systemic metastatic disease have a longer survival with new systemic therapies (including immunotherapy) that have recently seen more widespread use. Furthermore, the growing use of sensitive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques has contributed to the better detection of small asymptomatic brain metastases.

Pathophysiology 

Metastatic cancer passes through the bloodstream and enters the central nervous system through a breakdown of the blood-brain barrier. Clonal cells then proliferate, causing local invasion, displacement, inflammation, and edema. Distribution throughout the central nervous system is more common in areas of high blood flow; however, different histological subtypes tend to have different distributions of location within the brain

Diagnosis

A head computed tomogram (CT) allows for a quick examination, although fine-slice MR of the brain with contrast is the gold standard for neuroimaging in cases of suspected brain metastases. MR allows for a determination of the number and anatomical location of tumors and the degree of associated edema. Basic laboratory assessment including complete blood count, metabolic panel, and liver function test should be performed.

Treatment

Metastatic breast cancer in any part of the body is usually treated with systemic medicines, which treat cancer throughout the entire body. For brain metastasis, local treatments that specifically target the brain, such as surgery or radiation, are sometimes recommended. Additionally, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, hormonal therapy, and targeted therapy could be used.

Brain metastases Emerging Drugs Chapters

This segment of the Brain metastases report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.

Brain metastases Emerging Drugs

ANG1005: Angiochem

ANG1005 is a novel targeted taxane derivative that is the first oncology product to leverage Angiochem’s technology platform to cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and enter cancer cells.  ANG1005 is an Angiopep-2 paclitaxel conjugate that gains entry into the brain by targeting the LRP-1, which is one of the most highly-expressed receptors on the surface of the BBB.  Once inside the brain, ANG1005 enters tumor cells using the same receptor-mediated pathway through LRP-1, which is upregulated in various cancer cells including malignant glioma and metastatic cancers in the brain. 

A Phase II, multi-center, open label study has been conducted with ANG1005 in patients with brain metastases from breast cancer (NCT01480583). The anticancer activity of ANG1005 was extremely encouraging and 2 additional Phase II trials have been conducted to further confirm its clinical activity in patients with recurrent high grade glioma (NCT01967810) and breast cancer patients with recurrent brain metastases (NCT02048059) and the drug is currently investigated in Phase III trials.

Azeliragon: Cantex Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

Azeliragon, is an oral, small molecule, administered once-daily, that inhibits RAGE interactions with its natural ligands, including HMGB1 and S100 proteins, in the tumor microenvironment. Activation of RAGE by these ligands stimulates cancer and its progression and metastasis and resistance to cancer treatment.

Azeliragon was licensed in mid-2021 from vTv Therapeutics Inc. and was originally in development by vTv for Alzheimer’s disease. There has been extensive demonstration of pre-clinical efficacy of RAGE inhibition in animal models of several cancers, including pancreatic cancer, glioblastoma, and brain metastasis from breast and lung cancer, as well as diverse serious complications of cancer, including cancer-related cognitive decline, as well as the development of metastatic disease. The drug is currently investigated in Phase I/II clinical trials for brain metastases.

AZD3759: Alpha Biopharma Ltd.

Zorifertinib (AZD3759) is a type of reversible new generation EGFR TKI, which has a strong ability to penetrate the bloodstream, cerebrospinal fluid, and can reach blood volume in the tissue. It is currently investigated for brain metastases and completed Phase II/III trial in July 2022.
