Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma: Understanding

Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma: Overview

Diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas (DIPGs) are highly-aggressive and difficult-to-treat brain tumors found at the base of the brain. They are glial tumors, meaning they arise from the brain's glial tissue — tissue made up of cells that help support and protect the brain's neurons. These tumors are found in an area of the brainstem called the pons, which controls many of the body's most vital functions such as breathing, blood pressure and heart rate. Approximately 300 children are diagnosed with DIPGs each year, usually between the ages of 5 and 9. Although the prognosis for DIPGs remains very poor but new research, with the help of clinical trials, may provide the key to improved treatment options. The symptoms of diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) usually develop very rapidly prior to diagnosis, reflecting the fast growth of these tumors. Most patients start experiencing symptoms less than three months — and often less than three weeks — before diagnosis. The most common symptoms include: rapidly developing problems controlling eye movements, facial expressions, speech, chewing, and swallowing, weakness in the arms and legs, problems with walking and coordination. The first step in treating the child is forming an accurate and complete diagnosis. Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is most commonly diagnosed from imaging studies. A number of treatments may be recommended. Some of them help to treat the tumor while others are intended to address complications of the disease or side effects of the treatment. Treatment for DIPG may include radiation therapy. DIPG falls into the Glioma staging system, so they can be classified according to the four stages below based on how the cells look under the microscope. The grades are from the least severe to the most severe. Low Grade: Grade I or II means that the tumor cells are the closest to normal. High Grade: Grade III or IV means that these are the most aggressive tumors. The main issue with DIPG is that most of these tumors are not classified by grade because surgery to obtain tissue by biopsy or to remove the tumor is not safe because of the location of the tumor. When these tumors are biopsied, they are usually grade III or grade IV tumors, which tend to behave very aggressively. Most of the tumors are diagnosed by their appearance on MRI. About 10% to 20% of all childhood brain tumors are DIPG or brainstem gliomas. They are more common in children between the ages of 5 and 10 years, but can occur at any age in childhood. Though more rare, they can also occur in adults.

Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma Emerging Drugs

• MTX 110: Midatech

MTX110 is a water‐soluble form of panobinostat free base, achieved through complexation with hydroxypropyl‐β‐ cyclodextrin (HPBCD) that enables convection‐enhanced delivery (CED) at potentially chemotherapeutic doses directly to the site of the tumour. Panobinostat is a hydroxamic acid and acts as a non‐selective histone deacetylase inhibitor (pan‐HDAC inhibitor). Based on favourable translational science data, MTX110 is being evaluated clinically as a treatment for DIPG (NCT03566199, NCT04264143) and recurrent medulloblastoma (NCT04315064), and preclinically for treatment of glioblastoma. MTX110 is delivered directly into and around the patient's tumour via a catheter system (e.g. CED or fourth ventricle infusions) to bypass the blood‐brain barrier. This technique exposes the tumour to very high drug concentrations while simultaneously minimizing systemic drug levels and the potential for toxicity and other side effects. Panobinostat has demonstrated high potency against DIPG tumour cells in in vitro and in vivo models, and in a key study it was the most promising of 83 anticancer agents tested in 14 patient‐derived DIPG cell lines.

• Paxalisib: Kazia Therapeutics

Paxalisib (originally GDC-0084) was invented by Genentech, Inc (South San Francisco, CA), the most successful developer of new cancer medicines in the world. Kazia entered into a worldwide exclusive license agreement with Genentech in October 2016. Genentech designed paxalisib to inhibit PI3K, a critical control mechanism in growth and cell division, which is activated in many forms of cancer. The distinguishing feature of paxalisib is its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Ordinarily, the BBB prevents many drugs from reaching brain tissue, and is a challenge in the treatment of any disease in the central nervous system. Paxalisib has been designed to cross the BBB, and a wealth of experimental data shows that it does so very successfully. This feature of paxalisib is almost unique in this class of medicines and differentiates it from the approved products in the PI3K inhibitor class.
