Over the last few years a number of new different compounds have been developed. They include phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-K) inhibitors. Deregulation within the PI3-K pathway is common in head neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and it represents a growing area of research. PI3-K inhibitors, including BKM120, PX-866 and BYL719, are being tested in several phase I and phase II studies in patients with locally advanced, recurrent or metastatic disease. This review provides an update of published clinical trials and highlights the challenges of PI3-K inhibitors in HNSCC.
在过去几年中,已经开发出了许多新型不同化合物。其中包括磷脂酰肌醇3激酶(PI3-K)抑制剂。PI3-K信号通路失调在头颈部鳞状细胞癌(HNSCC)中很常见,并且它是一个不断发展的研究领域。包括BKM120、PX-866和BYL719在内的PI3-K抑制剂正在针对局部晚期、复发或转移性疾病患者进行多项I期和II期研究测试。本综述提供了已发表临床试验的最新情况,并强调了PI3-K抑制剂在HNSCC治疗中的挑战。
