Responses to anti-angiogenic therapies.
Vascular tumors occur in approximately 10% of infants, and range from small cherry-red lesions to large, life-threatening tumors. Although the majority of these tumors involute after several years, there are few therapeutic options and their use is limited by the risk of side-effects. The recent increase in understanding of angiogenesis has led to investigations of new antiangiogenic treatment options using models of vascular tumors in mice. These studies have demonstrated the success of a variety of antiangiogenic approaches, including systemic administration of the antiangiogenic proteins AGM-1470 and angiostatin or of the matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor batimastat, and gene gun therapy with interleukin-12. Although these trials provide further evidence of the role of angiogenesis in the enlargement of these vascular tumors, their potential utility and safety await future trials in patients.

Fumagillin analog in the treatment of Kaposi's sarcoma: a phase I AIDS Clinical Trial Group study. AIDS Clinical Trial Group No. 215 Team.
Angiogenesis is a major component of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) and a critical process in tumor growth. The present study was designed primarily to test the toxicity and pharmacokinetics (PK) of the angiogenesis inhibitor TNP-470 and secondarily to evaluate tumor response in patients with early AIDS-related KS.. Patients with AIDS-related KS were required to have cutaneous disease with > or = 5 measurable lesions and no evidence of pulmonary, symptomatic gastrointestinal, or acutely life-threatening KS. Thirty-eight patients received TNP-470 by weekly intravenous infusion over 1 hour at one of six dose levels for up to 24 weeks.. The dose levels tested included 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 70 mg/m2. Median CD4 count was 24 cells/microl (range, 0 to 460). Fourteen patients (36%) had > or = 50 cutaneous lesions and 19 (49%) had oral lesions. Adverse events included neutropenia (n = 2), hemorrhage (n = 3), and urticaria (n = 1). PK studies showed wide interpatient and intrapatient variability. Elimination half-life values were short (range, 0.01 to 0.61 hours). Seven patients (18%) achieved a partial response. The median time to partial response was 4 weeks (range, 2 to 25), and the median duration of response was 11 weeks (range, 3 to 26+).. TNP-470, administered as a weekly, 1-hour infusion to patients with early AIDS-KS is well-tolerated at doses up to and including the highest dose tested. Tumor responses were observed in a substantial number of cases and occurred at various dose levels. TNP-470 should be evaluated further in patients with AIDS-KS as a single agent and in combination with other biologic response modifiers in early disease or after initial response to cytotoxic chemotherapy.

Antitumor effect of TNP-470 is not associated to decrease of angiogenesis in an experimental malignant neuroectodermic tumor.
The hypothesis that tumor growth depends on neovascularization has been broadly used in oncology research. TNP-470 is a fumagillin synthetic analog that is isolated from Aspergillus fumigatus, and experimental studies suggested that it shows antitumor effect mediated by its strong antiangiogenic effect. Because limited experience exists about the antitumoral effect of TNP-470 in cerebral tumors, we have carried out a study in order to evaluate the effect of TNP-470 on tumor growth and the vascular area in an experimental malignant neuroectodermic tumor growing in the subcutaneous space of immunocompetent Wistar rats. Our results showed a significant tumor growth inhibition in animals treated with TNP-470 when compared to those in the control group (intratumoral injections were administered in 30 mg/kg dose, three times a week on alternate days during four consecutive weeks). Since the quantitative analysis of tumor vascular parameters--number of microvessels and total intratumor vascular area--in the experimental groups did not show significant statistical differences, we conclude that TNP-470 has a significant antitumor effect on our neuroectodermic tumor, but this effect is mediated by other antineoplastic mechanisms that are independent of its previously described angiostatic capacity.

Treatment of murine angiosarcoma with etoposide, TNP-470 and prednisolone.
To develop effective therapies for angiosarcoma, we investigated the anti-tumor effects of etoposide (ETO), TNP-470 and prednisolone (PSL) using an established murine angiosarcoma cell line (ISOS-1). We examined the direct anti-tumor and anti-angiogenic effects of these drugs on ISOS-1 cells and normal murine microvascular endothelial cells (mECs) in vitro. Cell growth of ISOS-1 was inhibited significantly by ETO, moderately by TNP-470, and not at all by PSL (IC(50): 0.25 microg/ml, 10 microg/ml, >8000 microg/ml, respectively). One the other hand, cell growth of mECs was inhibited significantly by TNP-470, slightly by PSL, and negligibly by ETO (IC(50): 0.85 ng/ml, 0.7 microg/ml, 10 microg/ml, respectively). In an in vivo assay, tumor growth of ISOS-1 was significantly inhibited by more than 2.5 mg/kg of ETO dose-dependently, and by more than 30 mg/kg of TNP-470, and 100 mg/kg of PSL individually. Combination treatments of ETO+TNP-470 and TNP-470+PSL showed synergistic enhancement of inhibition (% control inhibition: ETO vs. TNP-470 vs. ETO+TNP-470: 55 versus 55 vs. 16%) (% control inhibition: TNP-470 vs. PSL vs. TNP-470+PSL: 41 vs. 86 vs. 21%). ETO+PSL combination treatment, however, failed to show significant enhancement of anti-tumor effects. In conclusion, our results indicated that TNP-470 may be a very effective drug for angiosarcoma treatment, especially in combination with ETO or PSL. We eagerly anticipate the use of TNP-470 in clinical treatment of angiosarcoma.

The effect of the anti-angiogenic agent TNP-470 on tumor growth and vascularity in low passaged xenografts of human gliomas in nude mice.
The effect of the anti-angiogenic agent TNP-470 on tumor growth, vascular area, vascular density and tumor perfusion of two different subcutaneously implanted human glioma xenografts (E98 and E106) in nude mice was evaluated. Vascular parameters were investigated with an image analysis system. For both tumor lines a small but significant tumor growth suppression was observed. However, no differences in vascular parameters between TNP-470 treated tumors and controls could be found after 6 weeks of treatment. It is concluded that although TNP-470 is a promising anti-angiogenic agent in many tumor types, at least 2 glioma lines seem to be partly resistant to its anti-angiogenic effects. Further evaluation of the effects of combination of TNP-470 and cytostatic agents or radiotherapy in human glioma xenografts are required to determine the place of anti-angiogenic therapy in general and treatment with the anti-angiogenic agent TNP-470 more specifically in the treatment of human gliomas.

Efficacy of CDDP and AGM-1470 chemotherapy against lung metastasis in rat osteosarcoma depends on the timing of combined administration.
The efficacy of combination therapy with cis-diammine-dichloroplatinum (II) (CDDP) and o-(chloroacetyl-carbamoyl) fumagillol (AGM-1470) was evaluated experimentally using a transplantable rat osteosarcoma line, previously established in our laboratory, with a high potential for metastasis. Tumor-bearing male Fischer 344 rats were administered CDDP (2.5 mg/kg) together with, or after discontinuation of, AGM-1470 treatment (10 mg/kg/body weight/week). When CDDP was administered three days after discontinuation of AGM-1470 the most pronounced antimetastatic effects were observed, although the antitumor effect was approximately the same.
