INVESTIGACIÓN BIOMÉDICA

Estudiamos tumores cerebrales primarios y metástasis cerebrales, que son algunos de los cánceres más agresivos. Tanto el glioblastoma como la metástasis cerebral son enfermedades muy graves con opciones terapéuticas limitadas. Por eso, es fundamental avanzar en este campo para mejorar los resultados de estos pacientes.

Nuestro grupo está diseñando herramientas para supervisar y describir tumores cerebrales. Hemos descubierto que podemos describir los tumores cerebrales mediante el análisis de las células inmunitarias y el ADN tumoral circulante libre de células en el líquido cefalorraquídeo. Aunque todavía no se ha integrado en la práctica clínica ningún biomarcador derivado de la biopsia líquida de estos tumores, las pruebas cada vez más numerosas publicadas, incluidos nuestros hallazgos, apuntan a su eficacia para evaluar en tiempo real la enfermedad maligna y a su potencial para informar y guiar mejor el tratamiento terapéutico de los pacientes.

Como reflejo de nuestro trabajo en este campo, se nos invitó a participar en la redacción de dos artículos de revisión (que incluían recomendaciones de práctica clínica) sobre las aplicaciones clínicas de las biopsias líquidas en el cáncer cerebral (Soffietti et al. 2022; Pascual et al. 2022) y escribir un artículo News & Views en Nature Reviews Clinical Oncology (Seoane y Escudero 2022).

Estamos comprometidos con el avance de la investigación para desarrollar nuevos compuestos terapéuticos para tratar el cáncer cerebral. En 2022, informamos del desarrollo preclínico de dos nuevos compuestos que ahora están en fase de desarrollo clínico:

1- Con el uso de modelos derivados de pacientes, demostramos la eficacia y el mecanismo de acción de un nuevo inhibidor de BRAF permeable al cerebro en el contexto de melanomas con mutación de BRAF que recayeron con el tratamiento de referencia (Bonfill-Teixidor et al. 2022). En la actualidad, un ensayo clínico para probar el compuesto está reclutando pacientes en nuestro Hospital (ISRCTN13713551).

2- También con el uso de modelos derivados de pacientes, estudiamos los mecanismos de acción de un nuevo anticuerpo terapéutico biespecífico (EGFRvIII TCB), que se une tanto a los linfocitos T CD3 como a la mutación somática EGFRvIII expresada en el 20 %-30 % de los glioblastomas. Se han publicado los resultados (Iurlaro et al. 2022) y el resumen gráfico (véase la figura) aparece en la portada de la revista. Este estudio fue la base de un ensayo clínico que se está llevando a cabo en el VHIO (NCT05187624).

El papel del microambiente tumoral que, en el caso del cáncer cerebral, asume un papel crucial en la progresión del cáncer. Los avances en el conocimiento del microambiente tumoral prometen armas poderosas para combatir el cáncer, independientemente de su heterogeneidad. En este contexto, hemos escrito un artículo sobre los avances y limitaciones de una nueva sustancia anticancerígena dirigida contra TGF-β y PD-L1 (Gulley et al. 2022).

También hemos informado de que la citocina LIF asume un papel esencial en el microambiente tumoral y, en consecuencia, constituye una prometedora diana terapéutica. Hemos descrito el mecanismo de acción de nuestro nuevo fármaco MSC-1 (ahora AZD0171) (Hallett et al. 2022). MSC-1 es un anticuerpo neutralizante de LIF desarrollado por la empresa derivada del VHIO, Mosaic Biomedicals, fundada por Joan Seoane en 2012. Medimmune/Astrazeneca adquirió Mosaic Biomedicals en 2020. En 2022, publicamos los resultados del ensayo clínico de fase I (Borazanci et al. 2022, NCT03490669). En 2021, se inició el reclutamiento de pacientes para un ensayo clínico de fase II (NCT04999969) para probar el MSC-1.
