    Elacestrant: a new FDA-approved SERD for the treatment of breast cancer
    (Springer, 2023-05-16T00:00:00) Bhatia, Neha; Thareja, Suresh
    Elacestrant (RAD-1901), a selective estrogen receptor degrader, was approved by USFDA on January 27, 2023, for the treatment of breast cancer. It has been developed by Menarini Group under the brand name Orserdu�. Elacestrant showed anticancer activity both in vitro and in vivo in ER+ HER2-positive breast cancer models. The present review delebrates the development stages of Elacestrant, with its medicinal chemistry, synthesis, mechanism of action, and pharmacokinetic studies. Clinical data and safety profile has also been discussed, including data from randomized trials. � 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.

    Selective Estrogen receptor degraders (SERDs) for the treatment of breast cancer: An overview
    (Elsevier Masson s.r.l., 2023-05-04T00:00:00) Bhatia, Neha; Hazra, Shreejita; Thareja, Suresh
    Discovery of SERDs has changed the direction of anticancer research, as more than 70% of breast cancer cases are estrogen receptor positive (ER+). Therapies such as selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERM) and aromatase inhibitors (AI's) have been effective, but due to endocrine resistance, SERDs are now considered essential therapeutics for the treatment of ER+ breast cancer. The present review deliberates the pathophysiology of SERDs from the literature covering various molecules in clinical trials. Estrogen receptors active sites distinguishing characteristics and interactions with currently available FDA-approved drugs have also been discussed. Designing strategy of previously reported SERDs, their SAR analysis, in silico, and the biological efficacy have also been summarized along with appropriate examples. � 2023 Elsevier Masson SAS

    Dual Aromatase-Sulphatase Inhibitors (DASIs) for the Treatment of Hormone Dependent Breast Cancer
    (Bentham Science Publishers, 2021-01-19T00:00:00) Banjare, Laxmi; Jain, Akhlesh Kumar; Thareja, Suresh
    Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in women and the second most common form of cancer, causing death after lung cancer, all across the globe at an alarming rate. The level of estrogens in breast cancer tissues of postmenopausal women is 10-40 folds higher than the non-carcinogenic breast tissues. As a result of this greater level of estrogen, breast tissue becomes more prone to develop breast cancer; mainly, estradiol plays a significant role in the initiation and development of hormone-dependent breast cancer. Androstenedione, Adrenal dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate, and estrone-sulfate also play an important role as precursors for estrogen biosynthesis. Estrogen deprivation exhibits an attractive phenomenon in the advancement of ideal therapeutics for the treatment of breast cancer. Inhibition of aromatase and sulphatase emerged as an attractive therapy for the treatment of hormone-dependent breast cancer via deprivation of estrogen by different pathways. The cocktail of aromatase and sulphatase inhibitors known as Dual Aromatase-sulphatase Inhibitors (DASIs) emerged as an attractive approach for effective estrogen deprivation. The present review arti-cle focused on the journey of dual aromatase-sulphatase inhibitors from the beginning to date (2020). Keeping in view the key observations, this review may be helpful for medicinal chemists to design and develop new and efficient dual aromatase-sulphatase inhibitors for the possible treatment of hor-mone-related breast cancer. � 2021 Bentham Science Publishers.

    Recent development in indole derivatives as anticancer agent: A mechanistic approach
    (Bentham Science Publishers, 2021-01-05T00:00:00) Devi, Neha; Kaur, Kamalpreet; Biharee, Avadh; Jaitak, Vikas
    Background: Cancer accounts for several deaths each year. There are multiple FDA approved drugs for cancer treatments. Due to the severe side effects and multiple drug resistance, the current drug therapies become ineffective. So, the newer moieties with fewer toxic effects are necessary for the development. Objective: The mechanism of indole derivatives as anti-cancer agents with their major target is explored in detail in this article. Methods: Recent advances and mechanism of indole derivatives as anti-cancer agents are reviewed. This review suggests a detailed explanation of multiple mechanisms of action of various indole derivatives: cell cycle arrest, aromatase inhibitor estrogen receptor regulator, tubulin inhibitor, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, topoisomerase inhibitors, and NFkB/PI3/Akt/mTOR pathway inhibitors, through which these derivatives have shown promising anti-cancer potential. Results: A full literature review showed that the indole derivatives are associated with the properties of inducing apoptosis, aromatase inhibition, regulation of estrogen receptor and inhibition of tyrosine kinase, tubulin assembly, NFkB/PI3/Akt/mTOR pathway, and HDACs. These derivatives have shown significant activity against cancer cell lines. Conclusion: Indole derivatives seem to be important in cancer via acting through various mechanisms. This review has shown that the indole derivatives can further be explored for the betterment of cancer treatment, and to discover the hidden potential of indole derivatives. � 2021 Bentham Science Publishers.

    Polymeric nanoparticles of aromatase inhibitors: A comprehensive review
    (Bentham Science Publishers, 2020-09-29T00:00:00) Mishra, Keerti; Ratre, Pooja; Thareja, Suresh; Jain, Akhlesh K.
    Being the second most frequent cancer, breast cancer is emerging worldwide with an alarming rate, specifically in post-menopausal women. Targeted drug delivery has been in the focus for the successful treatment of breast cancer by enhancing the drug delivery efficiency and reducing the systemic toxicity of drugs. Al-so, it eliminates the drawbacks associated with conventional chemotherapy, including neuropathy, memory loss, cardiotoxicity and low RBCs count. This review elaborates the polymeric nanoparticles based formulation approaches for selective and sustained delivery for effective cure of breast cancer. However, breast cancer, a life-threatening disease, is mostly caused because of estrogen, thus aromatase inhibitors and estrogen synthesis inhibitors could prevent chances of breast cancer. The disease is associated with drug resistance and some side effects, which could be easily eliminated by using novel therapeutic approaches. Aromatase inhibitors, when en-trapped in nanoparticles, have shown sustained drug release, advocating themselves to be beneficial for the treatment of breast cancer. � 2021 Bentham Science Publishers.
