Leptomeningeal Disease: Understanding

Leptomeningeal Disease: Overview

Leptomeningeal disease (LMD) is a late-stage complication of systemic cancers caused by multifocal metastases to the leptomeninges, which consist of the pia mater, arachnoid, and subarachnoid space. Leptomeningeal disease occurs when cancer cells migrate from your breast, lung, or some other part of your body to your cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). This liquid circulates nutrients and chemicals to the brain and spinal cord. This condition neoplastic meningitis, carcinomatous meningitis, lymphomatous meningitis, and leukemic meningitis. LMD also known as Leptomeningeal carcinomatosis (LMC), leptomeningeal metastasis, is the metastatic spread of cancer to the pia mater, arachnoid, and subarachnoid space. LMD typically presents with non-specific neurological signs and symptoms that tend to progress insidiously over time. On imaging, patients may present with focal sites of enhancing disease or a more diffuse pattern with the entire neuraxis at potential risk. As result, the presenting symptoms may be findings are usually attributable to dysfunction of the cranial nerves, cerebellum, spine, or increased intracranial pressure. Some common symptoms of the disease include headache, altered mentation, nausea, and vomiting, as well as symptoms related to radiculopathies, myelopathies, and cauda equina syndrome. It is an uncommon condition that occurs in about 5% of cancer patients. Diagnosing of the LMD often involves taking a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of the brain and spinal cord, as well as a evaluating a sample of cerebrospinal fluid, which can be obtained through a minimally invasive lumbar puncture procedure. Unfortunately, LMD remains incurable, so treatments are often symptom directed. However, for some cancers, new therapies have improved prognoses dramatically. The treatment for LMD is based on 2 guiding principles: to reduce pressure on the brain caused by any CSF buildup, and to reduce the number of cancer cells causing the pressure. The treatment options for LMD includes oral targeted therapies that can cross the blood - brain barrier and may be used to treat LMD. Other drugs may be administered directly into the CSF through a special port placed into the brain by a neurosurgeon. Radiation therapy can also be used to kill cancer cells on the leptomeninges.

Leptomeningeal Disease : Emerging Drugs Chapters

This segment of the Leptomeningeal Disease report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase III, II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.

Leptomeningeal Disease : Emerging Drugs

ANG1005: Angiochem IncANG1005 is a novel targeted taxane derivative that is the first oncology product to leverage Angiochem’s technology platform to cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and enter cancer cells. ANG1005 is an Angiopep-2 paclitaxel conjugate that gains entry into the brain by targeting the LRP-1, which is one of the most highly-expressed receptors on the surface of the BBB. Once inside the brain, ANG1005 enters tumor cells using the same receptor-mediated pathway through LRP-1, which is upregulated in various cancer cells including malignant glioma and metastatic cancers in the brain. The drug is in Phase III for the treatment of leptomeningeal disease from breast cancer.

Paxalisib: Kazia TherapeuticsPaxalisib (formerly GDC-0084), a small molecule inhibitor of the PI3K / AKT / mTOR pathway invented by Genentech, Inc. Kazia entered into a worldwide exclusive license agreement with Genentech in October 2016. Currently, the Phase I study evaluates the GDC-0084, in combination with radiation therapy in people who have solid tumor brain metastases or leptomeningeal metastases.
