Beta-blockers and glioma: a systematic review of preclinical studies and clinical results

Abstract: Given the median survival of 15 months after diagnosis, novel treatment strategies are needed for glioblastoma. Beta-blockers have been demonstrated to inhibit angiogenesis and tumor cell proliferation in various cancer types. The aim of this study was to systematically review the evidence on the effect of beta-blockers on glioma growth. A systematic literature search was performed in the PubMed, Embase, Google Scholar, Web of Science, and Cochrane Central to identify all relevant studies. Preclinical studies … Show more

“…Tewarie et al summarized previous preclinical and clinical studies about the effects of β-blockers on gliomas and noted reduced cell proliferation via a decrease in cAMP levels, time-dependent cell cycle arrest, and reduced cell migration [26]. However, in a retrospective cohort study of 218 patients with recurrent GBM, Johansen et al observed no correlation between the usage of β-blockers and OS and PFS [27].…”

“…However, due to the weakness of overall research quality, the beneficial conclusion seems unreliable ( Spini et al, 2019 ). The BBs have been currently used in other cancer types, such as glioblastoma ( Tewarie et al, 2020 ), lung cancer ( Coelho et al, 2020 ), and ovarian cancer ( Majidi et al, 2020 ). However, its role in cancer therapy is difficult to determine because of the quality of researches.…”

“…Plauto LLC, Resende RM ASAA A segunda questão identificada é o decréscimo da migração celular, sendo evidenciado que a administração de beta-agonistas é capaz de aumentar a propensão à metástases, enquanto o uso de beta-bloqueadores reduz a migração celular, bem como a ruptura da barreira hemato-encefálica (BHE). 12 A associação dos beta-bloqueadores com outras drogas, mediante o aumento da sensibilidade aos fármacos, é o terceiro mecanismo. Esse acréscimo ocorre devido à inibição de substâncias que atuam no efluxo de drogas através da barreira hematoencefálica, conhecidas como p-glicoproteínas, capazes de reduzir a ação dessas no sistema nervoso central.…”

“…Outros estudos evidenciam essa ação apontando o carvedilol como o fármaco mais potente entre esses fármacos. 12 O último mecanismo apontado é a indução da morte celular, embora os meios pelos quais essa apoptose ocorra permaneçam sem elucidação. 12 Apesar de evidenciados como capazes de atuar efetivamente no tratamento dos gliomas pelos estudos pré-clínicos, os beta-bloqueadores não apresentaram efeito relacionado ao aumento de sobrevida no estudo observacional.…”
