Mesothelioma Gene Therapy Trial Shows ‘Real Potential’
Gene therapy is moving closer to becoming part of standard-of-care treatment for pleural mesothelioma, according to the latest multicenter clinical trial. The phase III trial, known as the INFINITE clinical research study, is designed to evaluate the intrapleural delivery of an investigational drug — a type of gene therapy — in combination with celecoxib and gemcitabine, anti-inflammatory and chemotherapy drugs, respectively. Researchers hope to stop, or at least slow, the growth of mesothelioma tumor cells with the combination therapy. “This is a very interesting concept,” oncologist Dr. Bernardo Goulart of the Se...

Mesothelioma Clinical Trial Targets Latest Gene Therapy
Pioneering pulmonologists Dr. Steven Albelda and Dr. Daniel Sterman have worked for more than 20 years on developing gene therapy to effectively combat pleural mesothelioma cancer. The payoff may have finally arrived. Albelda and Sterman’s long-awaited, phase III clinical trial will open this month to evaluate the efficacy of TR002, a novel gene therapy drug, when used in combination with celecoxib and gemcitabine. TR002, a form of immunotherapy, is a genetically engineered adenovirus that triggers the anti-tumor effects of interferon, a naturally occurring protein that destroys cancer cells. “The hope is, if it works ...

Obesity and inflammation -- A deadly combination for prostate cancer
(Osaka University) A new Osaka-centered study identified the mechanisms of high-fat diet (HFD)-induced prostate cancer progression. They observed in a mouse model that HFD accelerated tumor growth and increased the myeloid-derived suppressor cells fraction and M2/M1 macrophage ratio. Additionally, the anti-inflammatory drug celecoxib suppressed tumor growth. Their results suggest that HFD-induced prostate cancer growth via cytokine IL6 signaling could also exist in obese humans, and celecoxib may have clinical benefits for obese patients with prostate cancer.
