Inibidores de tirosina-quinase no tratamento de mastocitomas cutâneos em cães: revisão

The mast cell tumor (MCT) is the second most common type of tumor in dogs. It is characterized by uncontrolled proliferation of mast cells in the skin. Treatment involves surgical resection, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Recently, new treatment protocols have been developed, such as the use of tyrosine kinase inhibitors. With the increasing knowledge about the genome and the evolution of methods in molecular genetics, drugs with specific molecular targets are surely going to become promising therapeutic modalities in the near future. Besides being involved in the normal cell cycle, some studies suggest that tyrosine kinases have a fundamental role in neoplastic processes. Therefore, some strategies such as the development of antibodies anti-receptors for tyrosine kinases and small-molecule tyrosine kinase receptor inhibitors have been developed in an attempt to inhibit tumor development. The purpose of this review is to describe the use of tyrosine kinase inhibitors in the treatment of mast cell tumors in dogs.

Cediranib: a VEGF receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor

Cediranib is a potent inhibitor of the VEGF family receptor tyrosine kinases, and a new agent in cancer treatment. The drug has shown promising activity in a variety of solid malignancies, in preclinical models and in clinical trials. Its pharmacokinetics allow for a convenient once-daily administration, with a toxicity profile that is very similar to other VEGF inhibitors. Its main side effects include hypertension, nausea, dysphonia, fatigue and diarrhea. Adverse events seem to be manageable, especially when used in doses lower than 45 mg/day. Studies have shown some activity as a single agent or in combination in advanced tumors, but not enough to secure its approval for routine use up to now. Clinical trials are still evaluating the role of cediranib in combination chemotherapy with cytotoxic agents.
