Previous studies have investigated patients' treatment goals before starting a treatment for metastatic lung cancer. Data on the evaluation of treatment goals are lacking. To determine if patients with metastatic lung cancer and their oncologists perceive the treatment goals they defined at the start of systemic treatment as achieved after treatment and if in hindsight they believe it was the right decision to start systemic therapy. A prospective multicenter study in 6 hospitals across the Netherlands between 2016 and 2018. Following systemic treatment, 146 patients with metastatic lung cancer and 23 oncologists completed a questionnaire on the achievement of their treatment goals and whether they made the right treatment decision. Additional interviews with 15 patients and 5 oncologists were conducted. According to patients and oncologists, treatment goals were achieved in 30% and 37% for 'quality of life,' 49% and 41% for 'life prolongation,' 26% and 44% for 'decrease in tumor size,' and 44% for 'cure', respectively. Most patients and oncologists, in hindsight, felt they had made the right decision to start treatment even if they had not achieved their goals (72% and 93%). This was related to the feeling that they had to do 'something.' Before deciding on treatment, the treatment options, including their benefits and side effects, and the goals patients have should be discussed. It is key that these discussions include not only systemic treatment but also palliative care as effective options for doing 'something.' Before deciding on treatment, the treatment options, including their benefits and side effects, and the goals patients have should be discussed. It is key that these discussions include not only systemic treatment but also palliative care as effective options for doing 'something.'Throughout recent decades, histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors have shown encouraging potential in cancer treatment, and several pan-HDAC inhibitors have been approved for treating malignant cancers. Numerous adverse effects of pan-HDAC inhibitors have been reported, however, during preclinical and clinical evaluations. To avoid undesirable responses, an increasing number of investigations are focusing on the development of isotype-selective HDAC inhibitors. In this study, we present an effective and quantitative cellular assay using high-content analysis (HCA) to determine compounds' inhibition of the activity of HDAC6 and Class I HDAC isoforms, by detecting the acetylation of their corresponding substrates (i.e., α-tubulin and histone H3). Several conditions that are critical for HCA assays, such as cell seeding number, fixation and permeabilization reagent, and antibody dilution, have been fully validated in this study. We used selective HDAC6 inhibitors and inhibitors targeting different HDAC isoforms to optimize and validate the capability of the HCA assay. The results indicated that the HCA assay is a robust assay for quantifying compounds' selectivity of HDAC6 and Class I HDAC isoforms in cells. Moreover, we screened a panel of compounds for HDAC6 selectivity using this HCA assay, which provided valuable information for the structure-activity relationship (SAR). In summary, our results suggest that the HCA assay is a powerful tool for screening selective HDAC6 inhibitors.Our experience indicates that extrapolation of doses from the maximum tolerated doses (MTD) derived from 4-week dose range finding (DRF) studies conducted in CByB6F1 may overpredict tolerability and undermine utility of the high-dose groups in 26-week carcinogenicity studies conducted in Tg.rasH2. In the 26-week carcinogenicity studies conducted in Tg.rasH2 mice, we analyzed the initial body weights, food consumption (FC), terminal body weights, body weight gain (BWG), mortality, and tumor incidence for vehicle and test article-treated dose groups for 26 studies conducted from 2014 to 2018. Although not statistically significant compared to the control dose group, the % BWG decreased in male mice of mid- and high-dose groups by >10%, whereas in females there were no differences. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/GDC-0449.html The mortality increased in a statistically significant manner for medium and high doses of males. In female mice, the mortality increased in the high-dose group but not in a statistically significant manner. When the cause of death (COD) was analyzed in all dose groups of both sexes, the COD due to tumors was highest in the control groups, whereas it was lowest in high-dose groups of both sexes. At the same time, the COD due to undetermined causes, which is possible indication of test article-induced toxicity, was highest in high-dose groups of both sexes. These findings together indicate that MTD derived from earlier DRF studies was exceeded when applied to 26-week carcinogenicity studies and did not serve any purpose in the outcome of these studies.The predominant assay detection methodologies used for enzyme inhibitor identification during early-stage drug discovery are fluorescence-based. Each fluorophore has a characteristic fluorescence decay, known as the fluorescence lifetime, that occurs throughout a nanosecond-to-millisecond timescale. The measurement of fluorescence lifetime as a reporter for biological activity is less common than fluorescence intensity, even though the latter has numerous issues that can lead to false-positive readouts. The confirmation of hit compounds as true inhibitors requires additional assays, cost, and time to progress from hit identification to lead drug-candidate optimization. To explore whether the use of fluorescence lifetime technology (FLT) can offer comparable benefits to label-free-based approaches such as RapidFire mass spectroscopy (RF-MS) and a superior readout compared to time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET), three equivalent assays were developed against the clinically validated tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) and screened against annotated compound sets. FLT provided a marked decrease in the number of false-positive hits when compared to TR-FRET. Further cellular screening confirmed that a number of potential inhibitors directly interacted with TYK2 and inhibited the downstream phosphorylation of the signal transducer and activator of transcription 4 protein (STAT4).
