PURPOSE: Standard treatment for patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic soft-tissue sarcoma (LA/M STS) is chemotherapy based on anthracyclines, but patient tolerance of chemotherapy is limited. The present trial (NCT03792542) investigated the use of anlotinib as first-line treatment for patients with advanced STS, in particular liposarcoma (LPS). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Eligible patients were previously untreated, pathologically confirmed, unresectable LA/M STS cases...

BACKGROUND: Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) contribute to the treatment of patients with anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC). Although prospective clinical studies of TKIs exhibit limited efficacy, whether ATC patients benefit from TKI treatment in real-world clinical practice may enlighten future explorations. Therefore, we conducted this effective analysis based on real-world retrospective studies to illustrate the efficacy of TKI treatment in ATC patients. METHODS: We systematically searched the online databases on September 03, 2023...

BACKGROUND: Anlotinib is an effective targeted therapy for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and has been found to mediate chemoresistance in many cancers. However, the underlying molecular mechanism of anlotinib mediates cisplatin (DDP) resistance in NSCLC remains unclear. METHODS: Cell viability was assessed by the cell counting kit 8 assay. Cell proliferation, migration, and invasion were determined using the colony formation assay and transwell assay...

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to assess the early efficacy of anlotinib in progressive radioactive iodine refractory differentiated thyroid cancer (RAIR-DTC) patients in terms of structural, biochemical, and metabolic levels. METHODS: Ten eligible patients were prospectively enrolled to receive anlotinib. Six weeks' response were assessed. Apart from the structural response according to RECIST 1.1, biochemical response was assessed by serum thyroglobulin (Tg), metabolic response was assessed by 18 F-FDG PET/CT according to the EORTC criteria...

Anlotinib is used for the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer; however, the emergence of drug resistance limits its clinical application. β-sitosterol may also be used to treat lung cancer, but there have been no studies evaluating β-sitosterol against anlotinib-resistant lung cancer. The purpose of this study was to determine the mechanism by which β-sitosterol enhances the sensitivity of lung cancer cells to anlotinib. A549 cells were treated with different concentrations of anlotinib to generate anlotinib-resistant cells (A549/anlotinib cells)...

Desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) is a rare and highly aggressive malignancy. Most patients are diagnosed at a late stage with poor prognosis. The treatment usually includes combined intensive chemotherapy, cytoreductive surgery, radiotherapy, and targeted therapy. Due to the low incidence rate and dismal survival, there is currently a lack of case reports on DSRCT with concurrent leukemia. We report a case of a young patient who achieved disease stabilization for 14 months after receiving 6 cycles of chemotherapy and whole abdominal radiation therapy (WART), followed by consolidation treatment with anlotinib...

BACKGROUND: The advent of immunotherapy has revolutionized non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treatment. Anlotinib (AN), a multitargeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor, holds promise in combination with PD-1 monoclonal antibody therapy. Understanding the impact of optimal dosage is pivotal. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to assess the comparative efficacy of high-dose AN versus low-dose AN when combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibody for the treatment of NSCLC. METHODS: A total of 70 patients with NSCLC undergoing PD-1 monoclonal antibody therapy at our hospital from June 2020 to January 2022 were selected...

Pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinoma (PSC) is a rare and aggressive subtype of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that is characterized by poor differentiation and invasiveness. According to the World Health Organization, PSC exhibits sarcoma or sarcomatoid differentiation and typically presents with an insidious onset, lacking specific symptoms and signs. It is associated with high malignancy, early metastasis, short survival time, and a poor prognosis. Treatment for PSC follows a similar approach to NSCLC; however, it presents significant challenges due to its high resistance to chemotherapy...

Acquired resistance is unavoidable with the approval of third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) for first-line therapy of advanced non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Some studies have found that combining antiangiogenesis medicines with EGFR-TKI may benefit clinical outcomes in EGFR-mutant NSCLC. However, it is unclear whether EGFR-TKI paired with antiangiogenesis therapy could further improve survival for patients with gradual progression. Thus, we comprised the clinical effectiveness and safety of continuous EGFR-TKI in combination with anlotinib and EGFR-TKI alone in patients who had gradual progression on third-generation EGFR-TKI treatment...

INTRODUCTION: Desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) is a highly aggressive primitive sarcoma with a 5-year survival rate estimated at only 15% to 30%. Although few curative treatment options exist, patients are most often treated with a combination of aggressive chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery. Targeted therapy inhibitors of platelet-derived growth factor A, insulin-like growth factor receptor 1, and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2, which are almost uniformly overexpressed in DSRCT, have largely failed in clinical trials...

Systemic therapies-based combination treatments have been developed rapidly in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, there are still a few patients not applicable to any recommended therapies, making it considerable to try new therapeutic options. Among them, anlotinib, a new oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is being widely used for many advanced malignancies. We present the first case of the antitumor effect of complete remission by anlotinib combined with an anti-programmed cell death protein 1 antibody, sintilimab, in a patient with advanced HCC...

Pancreatic neuroendocrine carcinoma (pNEC) is a type of pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasm with a poor prognosis, and patients with metastatic pNEC have a survival time of only 8-12 months. The treatment options for pNEC are minimal, and the prognosis is unfavorable. The present study reports the case of a 56-year-old male who was diagnosed with advanced pNEC with bone metastases in June 2018. The patient was treated with oral anlotinib after eight cycles of first-line etoposide + cisplatin (EP) chemotherapy until July 2022...

Copper-based nanomaterials show considerable potential in the chemodynamic therapy of cancers. However, their clinical application is restricted by low catalytic activity in tumor microenvironment and copper-induced tumor angiogenesis. Herein, a novel copper-doxorubicin-anlotinib (CDA) nanoconjugate was constructed by the combination of copper-hydrazide coordination, hydrazone linkage and Schiff base bond. The CDA nanoconjugate consists of a copper-3,3'-dithiobis(propionohydrazide)-doxorubicin core and an anlotinib-hyaluronan shell...

The cure rates for osteosarcoma have remained unchanged in the past three decades, especially for patients with pulmonary metastasis. Thus, a new and effective treatment for metastatic osteosarcoma is urgently needed. Anlotinib has been reported to have antitumor effects on advanced osteosarcoma. However, both the effect of anlotinib on autophagy in osteosarcoma and the mechanism of anlotinib-mediated autophagy in pulmonary metastasis are unclear. The effect of anlotinib treatment on the metastasis of osteosarcoma was investigated by transwell assays, wound healing assays, and animal experiments...

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the inhibitory effects of STM2457, which is a novel METTL3 (m6 A writer) inhibitor, both as a monotherapy and in combination with anlotinib, in the treatment of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) both in vitro and in vivo. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The efficacy of STM2457 or STM2457 plus anlotinib was evaluated using two OSCC cell lines by CCK8, transwell, colony formation, would-healing, sphere formation, cell cycle, apoptosis assays, and nude mice tumor xenograft techniques...

Murine cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells are heterologous cells that kill various allogeneic and isogenic tumors and have functional and phenotypic characteristics of natural killer cells and T lymphocytes. However, the effect of CIK alone on solid tumor therapy is only limited. To enhance the therapeutic effect, it is vital to discover a mix of several therapy approaches. Immune cell function is inhibited by abnormal tumor vessels and the tumor microenvironment, which block lymphocyte entry into tumor tissue...

BACKGROUND: Anlotinib, as a salvage treatment for patients after failure of third-line or later-line treatments for small cell lung cancer (SCLC), has shown efficacy in patients with brain metastases (BMs). However, the efficacy and safety of anlotinib alone or in combination with immunotherapy for SCLC with BMs remain unclear. METHOD: Patients treated with anlotinib alone or in combination with an immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) at the Zhejiang Cancer Hospital between April 2019 and February 2023 were identified...

BACKGROUND: Pancreatic adenocarcinoma carries a grim prognosis, and there are few recognized effective second-line treatment strategies. We attempted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a combination of S-1, sintilimab, and anlotinib as a second-line treatment in pancreatic cancer patients with liver metastasis. METHODS: Pancreatic cancer patients with liver metastases were recruited. S-1 was administered orally at 25 mg/m2 bid, anlotinib was administered orally at 12 mg qd from day 1 to day 14, and sintilimab was administered intravenously at 200 mg on day 1...
