Extracellular LGALS3BP: a potential disease marker and actionable target for antibody-drug conjugate therapy in glioblastoma

Beatrice Dufrusine et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates that vesicular galectin-3-binding protein (LGALS3BP) is a potential diagnostic biomarker and therapeutic target for glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). Immunohistochemical analysis shows high expression of LGALS3BP in GBM patient tissues, and the amount of vesicular LGALS3BP is increased compared to healthy donors. Furthermore, analysis of extracellular vesicles from mice with human GBM indicates that LGALS3BP can be used as a marker for liquid biopsy. An antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) targeting LGALS3BP, named 1959-sss/DM4, shows specific accumulation in tumor tissue and produces potent antitumor activity. Overall, this work provides evidence for the importance of LGALS3BP as a diagnostic biomarker and therapeutic target for GBM, warranting further validation in preclinical and clinical studies.

Visualizing Galectin-3 Binding Protein Expression with ImmunoPET

Outi Keina''nen et al.

Summary: Galectin-3 binding protein (Gal-3BP) is a glycoprotein overexpressed and secreted by several cancers, and has been identified as a marker for tumor progression and poor prognosis in various cancer types. In this study, a pair of Gal-3BP-targeting radioimmunoconjugates for Zr-89-immunoPET were developed and evaluated. The results suggest that these probes could be clinically useful for imaging Gal-3BP-expressing malignancies and identifying patients likely to respond to Gal-3BP-targeted therapeutics.

Drug-based therapy for advanced adenoid cystic carcinoma: Current landscape and challenges based on an overview of registered clinical trials

Vivian Petersen Wagner et al.

Summary: Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) has a significant patient population that lacks effective systemic therapy. We reviewed ACC clinical trials on ClinicalTrials.gov and found that most trials were one-arm phase II trials enrolling advanced, recurrent/metastatic, incurable ACC cases. Small-molecule inhibitors, such as Apatinib, Axitinib, and Lenvatinib, showed promising results. However, more efforts are urgently needed in this field to improve the overall median time to progression.

LGALS3BP is a potential target of antibody-drug conjugates in oral squamous cell carcinoma

Ilaria Cela et al.

Summary: The present study suggests that LGALS3BP is highly expressed in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and may serve as a potential diagnostic biomarker and therapeutic target for ADC-based therapy. The study also found a correlation between high LGALS3BP expression levels and aggressive histological features of OSCC. Additionally, OSCC cell lines with high LGALS3BP expression showed high sensitivity to the ADC-payload DM4.

A Contemporary Review of Molecular Therapeutic Targets for Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma

Lauren E. Miller et al.

Summary: This review discusses the advances in molecular targets for adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC), with MYB-NFIB translocation being the most researched pathway, and other molecular targets showing limited efficacy. The ongoing investigation of molecular abnormalities underlying ACC is critical for identifying and developing novel targeted therapies.

Non-internalising antibody-drug conjugates

Nicola Ashman et al.

Summary: Traditional antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) require internalisation into cancer cells, but this approach has limitations. Recent research has shown that extracellular release of drugs upon binding to poorly-internalising antigens or other tumoral components can overcome these limitations. This new approach has the potential to expand the range of cancer targets and improve treatment efficacy.

Adenoid cystic carcinoma: a review of clinical features, treatment targets and advances in improving the immune response to monoclonal antibody therapy

James Nightingale et al.

Summary: The natural history of adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is characterized by treatment failure due to locoregional recurrence and distant metastases. Recent research indicates that ACC is resistant to immune checkpoint inhibition. Targeting PSMA and receptor manipulation may be potential directions for future therapeutic approaches in ACC.

Therapeutic Potential of Antibody-Drug Conjugate-Based Therapy in Head and Neck Cancer: A Systematic Review

Vittoria Perrotti et al.

Summary: Despite advancements in understanding molecular mechanisms and developing new therapies for head and neck cancer, the disease remains challenging, with a relatively low 5-year survival rate and limited representation in clinical trials. Targeted therapies tailored for the HNC phenotype may offer new treatment perspectives.
