Human clinical trial using diagnostic ultrasound and microbubbles to enhance neoadjuvant chemotherapy in HER2- negative breast cancer

Abstract: BackgroundIn vivo and in vitro experiments have demonstrated that diagnostic ultrasound combined with microbubbles (USMB) can enhance tumor chemotherapy, but few clinical studies have explored the effect of USMB in human HER2-negative breast cancer. We aimed to compare USMB combined with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) with NAC alone in the treatment of human HER2-negative breast cancer.MethodsPatients (n=10) enrolled in the study were treated with TAC (taxane – (docetaxel), anthracycline – (epirubicin or doxor… Show more

“…Early clinical trials assessing tumor response in gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) were based on the subjective and qualitative assessment of enhancement dynamics. Subsequent studies assessed response in renal cell carcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), breast cancer, pancreatic cancer, and colorectal metastases using semi-quantitative techniques [55,56,57,58,59,60,61,62,63,64,65]. Additional studies [50,51,56] used quantitative techniques to derive parameters related to the time course of contrast enhancement, in comparison to clinical endpoints such as Progression Free Survival (PFS) and Overall Survival (OS) following anti-angiogenic treatment.…”

“…Several pre-clinical studies have used co-administered cavitation nuclei to significantly enhance the delivery of co-administrated small molecules [111][112][113][114], antibodies, viral vectors [115][116][117][118], and nucleic acids [119][120][121]. There have also been several clinical trials evidencing the successful use of gas-filled microbubbles particles (such as Sonovue ® , Optison ® , Definity ® ) which have been approved as diagnostic ultrasound contrast agents to enhance the effects of standard chemotherapy in the context of chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer [122,123] or to treat pathologies that lie beyond the blood-brain barrier [124,125]. Most recently, a new class of solid gas-stabilizing CN (OxSonics SonoTran particles) were cleared by the UK's Medicines and Health Regulatory Authority (MHRA) to enter first-inhuman clinical trials (NCT02181075) for the enhancement of the delivery of co-administered small-molecule chemotherapeutics and antibodies to treat metastatic colorectal cancer in the liver.…”
