new therapy slows spread of deadly brain tumor cells

The rapid spread of a common and deadly brain tumor has been slowed down
significantly in a mouse model by cutting off the way some cancer cells
communicate, according to a team of researchers that includes UF Health
faculty.
The technique improved the survival time for patients with glioblastoma by
50 percent when tested in a mouse model, said Loic P. Deleyrolle, Ph.D., a
research assistant professor of neurosurgery in the UF College of Medicine.
Researchers focused on disrupting the cell-to-cell communication that
allows cancer stem cells to spread. To do that, they targeted a channel that
cancer cells use to transfer molecules. By cutting off their communications
pathway, the deadly cells stay in check, Deleyrolle said.
Eight UF Health researchers took part in the study, which was co-authored
by Deleyrolle and published recently in the journalCell Reports. They
collaborated with researchers at the Cleveland Clinic and the University of
California, Berkeley.
Glioblastoma is the most common brain tumor in adults and there is no
effective long-term treatment and patients usually live for 12 to 15 months
after diagnosis, according to the National Cancer Institute. Glioblastoma
tumors, which are highly malignant, typically start in the largest part of the
brain and can spread rapidly.
The research focused on connexin 46, a protein that is an essential
component of cancer stem cells. Connexin 46 is part of intercellular channels
known as a gap junction. That intercellular channel, which allows cells to
exchange molecules and ions, is crucial to the growth of a glioblastoma tumor,
researchers found.
"When we shut down those channels in the cancer stem cells, we can
significantly reduce the tumor-forming abilities of the cells," Deleyrolle
said.
Tumor growth was significantly delayed in mouse models that were treated
with a combination of the gap junction inhibitor 1-octanol and a chemotherapy
drug, temozolomide. After 100 days, all of the mouse models that had the
connexin 46 protein suppressed genetically were still alive. By comparison, all
of the mouse models that didn't have the protein suppressed died within two
months.
While the technique has yet to be tested in humans, Deleyrolle said the
implications are clear and relevant. For now, a glioblastoma patient can expect
to survive about 12 to 15 months. Patients can also develop a resistance to
temozolomide when it is used for chemotherapy, further shortening their life
expectancy.
"Any significant increase in survival time will be a meaningful
improvement because the current treatments provide only weeks of efficacy"
Deleyrolle said.
Another reason for optimism: All of the compounds that were tested as
inhibitors are being used in humans or are in the clinical trial pipeline.
Carbenoxolone is used in some European countries to treat ulcers, and 1-octanol
is used as experimental treatment for tremor in the United States. That means
that the amount of time needed to get the drugs into a clinical trial as a
therapy for glioblastoma could be significantly shortened, Deleyrolle said.
Because gap junction inhibitors have ubiquitous functions in many organs
and tissues, one of the next research steps is to determine the inhibitors'
most effective and tolerable concentrations. It is also necessary to understand
more about the mechanisms that make the inhibitors work, Deleyrolle said.
Still, clinical trials could begin within a few years, he said.
Treating glioblastoma is especially difficult because its cells can vary
drastically, even within a single tumor -- so breaking the chain of
cell-to-cell communication is yet another potential weapon to fight the
disease. If the new therapy is approved following a clinical trial, Deleyrolle
said it would likely be put to use alongside traditional chemotherapy and
radiation treatments.
Deleyrolle said he is seeking a new federal grant to continue translational
research.
"When it comes down to treating such a complex disease, there isn't
one magic bullet. You have to come up with complex, multiple approaches, he
said.
