Computational design of PD-L1 small molecule inhibitors for cancer therapy.
Drug repurposing opens new avenues in cancer therapy. Drug repurposing, or finding new uses for existing drugs, can substantially reduce drug discovery time and costs. Cheminformatics, genetics, and systems biology advances enable repositioning drugs. Clinical usage of PD-1/PD-L1 blocking has been approved because of its efficacy in improving prognosis in select groups. The PD-1/PD-L1 axis was considered to represent a mechanism for tumour evasion of host tumour antigen-specific T-cell immunity in early preclinical research. The expression of PD-L1 in cancer cells causes T lymphocytes to become exhausted by transmitting a co-inhibitory signal. A better understanding of how PD-L1 is regulated in cancer cells could lead to new therapeutic options. In this view, the study was aimed to repurpose the existing FDA-approved drugs as a potential PD-L1 inhibitor through e-Pharmacophore modelling, molecular docking and dynamic simulation. e-Pharmacophore screening retrieved 324 FDA-approved medications with the fitness score ≥ 1. The top 10-docked FDA candidates were compared with IN-35 (Clinical trial candidate) for its interaction pattern with critical amino acid residues. Mirabegron and Indacaterol exhibited a greater affinity for PD-L1 with docking scores of - 9.213 kcal mol Topics: Amino Acids; B7-H1 Antigen; Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors; Molecular Docking Simulation; Molecular Dynamics Simulation; Neoplasms; Programmed Cell Death 1 Receptor | 2023 |
Mirabegron displays anticancer effects by globally browning adipose tissues.
Metabolic reprogramming in malignant cells is a hallmark of cancer that relies on augmented glycolytic metabolism to support their growth, invasion, and metastasis. However, the impact of global adipose metabolism on tumor growth and the drug development by targeting adipose metabolism remain largely unexplored. Here we show that a therapeutic paradigm of drugs is effective for treating various cancer types by browning adipose tissues. Mirabegron, a clinically available drug for overactive bladders, displays potent anticancer effects in various animal cancer models, including untreatable cancers such as pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and hepatocellular carcinoma, via the browning of adipose tissues. Genetic deletion of the uncoupling protein 1, a key thermogenic protein in adipose tissues, ablates the anticancer effect. Similarly, the removal of brown adipose tissue, which is responsible for non-shivering thermogenesis, attenuates the anticancer activity of mirabegron. These findings demonstrate that mirabegron represents a paradigm of anticancer drugs with a distinct mechanism for the effective treatment of multiple cancers.

A study of cancer occurrence in users of mirabegron and antimuscarinic treatments for overactive bladder.
This post-authorization safety study (EU PAS Register Number: EUPAS16088) was designed to compare the incidence of cancer outcomes in patients treated with mirabegron versus antimuscarinic medications.. Cohorts of mirabegron initiators during 2012-2018 were propensity-score matched to antimuscarinic medication initiators within real-world data sources (Danish National Registers, Swedish National Registers, Clinical Practice Research Datalink [UK], Optum [US], and Humana [US]). Incident cancer cases were identified during follow-up from direct linkage to cancer registers or validated through medical record review or through physician questionnaires. Comparisons of sex-specific composite cancer outcomes (cancer of the lung/bronchus, colon/rectum, melanoma of skin, urinary bladder, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, kidney/renal pelvis, pancreas, prostate in men and breast and uterus in women) were made overall and for person-time in the first year and after the first year following start of treatment, for all ages and for the subgroup ≥65 years.. Among the 80,637 mirabegron initiators matched to 169,885 antimuscarinic medication initiators, 68% were at least 65 years of age and 66% were women. Over 5000 incident cancer cases were observed overall. Incidence rates were higher for men than women for composite and individual cancer outcomes. The pooled fixed effects hazard ratios for composite cancer outcomes (all ages) were 1.05 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.98-1.14) for women and 1.06 (95% CI: 0.98-1.14) for men. Results were similar in persons ≥65 years.. The results suggest no association between mirabegron use and risk of cancer, compared with antimuscarinic medications, in either men or women.
