Phytochemicals as Multitarget Therapeutics in Pancreatic Cancer: Mechanisms, Clinical Evidence, and Translational Challenges

open access: yesPhytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Pancreatic cancer, particularly pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, is aggressive and often diagnosed late, making treatment challenging. This review highlights the potential of phytochemicals, such as curcumin and quercetin, as multitarget agents that influence key carcinogenic pathways. These compounds exhibit anticancer effects by inhibiting processes

Clinical implementation of pre-treatment DPYD genotyping in capecitabine-treated metastatic breast cancer patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Purpose Metastatic breast cancer (mBC) patients with DPYD genetic variants linked to loss of dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) activity are at risk of severe capecitabine-associated toxicities.

Survival of patients with cancer with DPYD variant alleles and dose-individualized fluoropyrimidine therapy: a matched-pair analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
PURPOSEDPYD-guided fluoropyrimidine dosing improves patient safety in carriers of DPYD variant alleles. However, the impact on treatment outcome in these patients is largely unknown.

Chemoproteomic discovery of a brain‐penetrant, covalent NLRP3 inhibitor that binds a novel allosteric pocket

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
NLRP3 is a promising inflammatory target, but existing inhibitors lack diversity and brain penetrance, and none are approved. Using chemoproteomics, we discovered a novel series that binds to Cys463 in a previously uncharacterized pocket. Compounds showed nanomolar potency, brain exposure, and in vivo suppression of IL‐1β, supporting neuroinflammatory ...

Population-specific DPYD variants and fluoropyrimidine toxicity risk: an analysis using public genomic databases

open access: yesClinical Medicine
Introduction: Fluoropyrimidines (FP), including 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and capecitabine, are widely used chemotherapeutic agents. However, their toxicity varies significantly among patients, often because of genetic differences in DPYD, which encodes ...

A case-control study of a combination of single nucleotide polymorphisms and clinical parameters to predict clinically relevant toxicity associated with fluoropyrimidine and platinum-based chemotherapy in gastric cancer

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2021
Background Fluoropyrimidine plus platinum chemotherapy remains the standard first line treatment for gastric cancer (GC). Guidelines exist for the clinical interpretation of four DPYD genotypes related to severe fluoropyrimidine toxicity within European ...

Personalised medicine of fluoropyrimidines using DPYD pharmacogenetics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Fluoropyrimidines, such as 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and capecitabine, are among the most frequently prescribed anticancer drugs. They are inactivated by the enzyme dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD).

Diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for fluoropyrimidine treatment of patients carrying multiple DPYD variants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
DPYD genotyping prior to fluoropyrimidine treatment is increasingly implemented in clinical care. Without phasing information (i.e., allelic location of variants), current genotype-based dosing guidelines cannot be applied to patients carrying multiple ...

Comparison of pharmacogenomic guidance in Australian prescribing resources and international pharmacogenomic guidelines

open access: yesInternal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Pharmacogenomic‐guided medication management optimises drug therapy to enhance patient outcomes. Despite clinical utility, implementation in Australia remains limited, partly due to the lack of clear and consistent guidance. Aim This study evaluated the presence and consistency of pharmacogenomic testing indication categories and ...

Aberrant Methylation of DPYD Promoter, DPYD Expression, and Cellular Sensitivity to 5-Fluorouracil in Cancer Cells [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Cancer Research, 2004
Abstract Purpose: Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD), the initial rate-limiting enzyme in the degradation of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), is known to be a principal factor in clinical responses to the anticancer agent 5-FU, and various reports have clearly demonstrated that DPD activity is closely correlated to mRNA levels.
