Modulatory Effect of Prodigiosin or Pioglitazone on TIME and the Crosstalk to Immune-Checkpoint Protein(s)

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Lung cancer is one of the most common and serious types of cancer. Lung tumor cells exploit immune checkpoint proteins (ICPs) to maintain immune tolerance and thus promote tumor progression and invasion. Inhibition of ICPs using antibody therapies is one of the most common approaches for the treatment of lung cancer. Unfortunately, these antibody-based therapies can lead to severe adverse events. Moreover, a significant number of patients do not respond to immune checkpoint inhibition due to tumor heterogeneity and the immunosuppressive tumor immune microenvironment (TIME). The use of small molecule targeted approach instead of antagonizing antibodies may have the potential advantage of being able to target multiple ICPs in TIME with a single agent as well as improved tumor distribution.
