الوصف: Although vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitors provide significant clinical benefit, they often require dose reductions or even withdrawals due to their severe toxicities. Furthermore, almost all cancers show intrinsic and/or evasive resistance to VEGF inhibitors by multiple mechanisms. Serum angiopoietin-2 (Ang2) level has been proposed as a potential biomarker of VEGF inhibitor response in several cancers. Response to lenvatinib (E7080; VEGFR1-3 inhibitor) is also reported to correlate with low Ang2 level in differentiated thyroid cancer and endometrial cancer. From these clinical observations, Ang2 and its receptor Tie2 has been focused as promising targets. Here, we demonstrated mechanisms of resistance induced by Ang2 and a novel strategy to circumvent the resistance by combination of multi-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), lenvatinib and golvatinib (E7050; c-Met, Tie2, EphB4 inhibitor). Tie2 defines a highly pro-angiogenic macrophage subset, Tie2-expressing macrophage (TEM). Ang-Tie2 and EphB4-EphrinB2 signaling play critical roles in pericyte-mediated vessel stabilization. Ectopic expression of Ang2 in thyroid cancer conferred resistance to lenvatinib and enhanced pericyte-associated endothelial network development and TEM infiltration. In vitro analyses suggested that golvatinib/lenvatinib combination inhibited pericyte-mediated vessel stabilization and TEM differentiation. In thyroid and endometrial cancer models, golvatinib/lenvatinib combination inhibited pericyte network development and TEM infiltration, resulting in severe perfusion disorder and massive apoptosis. Body weight loss was tolerable in mice, and no macroscopic change was observed. These results suggest that modulation of tumor microenvironment by strategic and well-tolerated combination of multi-targeting TKIs sensitizes cancer to VEGF inhibitors, which warrants further clinical investigation to determine the clinical benefit of anti-angiogenesis cancer therapy.
