    Abstract: Methods are disclosed for preventing toxic drug-drug interactions during combination cancer therapy with a drug that is an anti-ErbB3 agent, such as an anti-ErbB3 antibody, together with a drug that is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor and/or a drug that binds to alpha-1 acid glycoprotein (e.g., erlotinib). Health care practitioners obtaining any one of the drugs are warned that when co-administering the drug that is an anti-ErbB3 agent with either or both of a drug that is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor and a drug that binds to alpha-1 acid glycoprotein, at least one of the co-administered drugs should be administered using a reduced dosage to prevent toxicity. In a reduced dosage, the amount of drug administered per unit time is reduced as compared to a dose that would be administered if the drug was administered as monotherapy. The reduced dosage can be, for example, a reduced drug dose or a reduced drug dosing frequency, or both. Compositions useful in practicing the disclosed methods are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20140221404
    Abstract: In order to identify a gene that can serve as an indicator for predicting the effectiveness of a drug treatment of cancer and to provide a novel method for predicting the effectiveness of a drug treatment targeting said gene, lung adenocarcinomas were subjected to whole-transcriptome sequencing. As a result, in-frame fusion transcripts between the KIF5B gene and the RET gene were identified. The KIF5B-RET gene fusions were detected in 6 out of 319 (2%) LADC specimens from Japanese individuals and 1 out of 80 (1%) LADC specimens from U.S.A. individuals. None of the seven subjects revealed known activating mutations such as EGFR, KRAS or ALK oncogenes; thus, said gene fusions were found to be responsible mutations (driver mutations) for oncogenesis. Since said gene fusions are considered to induce constitutive activation of RET tyrosine kinase protein, it was found that treatments with RET tyrosine kinase inhibitors are effective in patients with detection of said gene fusions.
