Synthesis and discovery of guaianolide - eudesmanolide heterodimers as CDK2 inhibitors for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma. (PubMed, Eur J Med Chem)
AntiHCC assay suggested 19 analogues showed better inhibitory activity than sorafenib on HepG2, SK-Hep-1, and Huh7 cells...In vivo, dimer 10 at 30 and 60 mg/kg inhibited tumor weight up to 64 % and 69 % without detectable toxicity, and IHC analysis confirmed in vivo target engagement. This study identified compound 10 as a potential antiHCC agent targeting CDK2, and warrants further investigation.

FAM83A acts as an amplifier for lipogenic signaling to facilitate the pathogenesis of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis. (PubMed, Metabolism)
FAM83A promotes MASH pathogenesis by interacting with RAF1 to activate ERK signaling, thereby stimulating fatty acid and cholesterol biosynthesis. Targeting this axis may offer therapeutic potential for MASH and metabolic dyslipidemia.

Radiomic signatures to estimate survival in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma treated with sorafenib: Cancer and Leukemia Group B 80802 (Alliance). (PubMed, ESMO Open)
OS can be accurately predicted in patients with HCC receiving sorafenib by combining certain radiomics features with clinical metadata, centered primarily on baseline characteristics.

Novel crystalline solid dispersions to improve the oral bioavailability and anti-liver cancer effect of Sorafenib. (PubMed, Drug Deliv Transl Res)
Collectively, our findings underscore the pivotal role of Sh/TgE in modulating drug particle size within CSD matrices through distinct mechanisms. Furthermore, our study underscores the potential of P188-mediated CSD formulations in augmenting the dissolution rate and bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs by minimizing drug particle size and sustaining drug supersaturation, thereby enhancing the efficacy of sorafenib in treating liver cancer.

Chronic stress-induced ANPEP drives liver cancer progression by increasing glutathione synthesis and inhibiting ferroptosis. (PubMed, J Clin Invest)
The combination of ANPEP silencing and sorafenib treatment showed a synergistic effect in inhibiting liver cancer progression. Finally, clinical data and mouse models demonstrated that chronic stress drove liver tumor progression via ANPEP-regulated SLC3A2. These findings reveal unanticipated communication between chronic stress and metabolic reprogramming during liver cancer progression, providing potential therapeutic implications for liver cancer.

Long-Term Disease Control With Lenvatinib in Metastatic Malignant Struma Ovarii: A Case Report. (PubMed, Cureus)
Subsequently, multiple hepatic metastases and pelvic dissemination developed, and conventional chemotherapy including bevacizumab was ineffective...Switching to sorafenib led to further progression, but reintroduction of LVB reduced Tg levels...The patient has survived seven years since recurrence, including six years on LVB. The tumor behaved similarly to poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma, with Tg levels reflecting disease activity and LVB demonstrating the potential for long-term tumor control.

Lenvatinib vs. sorafenib as second-line treatment post atezolizumab plus bevacizumab for hepatocellular carcinoma: The LEVIATHAN study. (PubMed, JHEP Rep)
These results challenge the assumption that all VEGFR-targeting TKIs are equivalent post-ICI and suggest lenvatinib may be superior to sorafenib following anti-VEGF-based immunotherapy. While prospective randomised trials are still needed, these real-world data offer valuable guidance for clinicians and help refine treatment sequencing in advanced HCC.

Zingiberensis new saponin reverses sorafenib resistance by targeting lncRNA TCONS-00026762/AKR1C1 and modulating autophagy and ferroptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma. (PubMed, Toxicol Appl Pharmacol)
Our findings suggest that ZnS inhibits autophagy, promotes ferroptosis, and enhances sensitivity to sorafenib in HCC cells through the lncRNA TCONS-00026762/AKR1C1 axis.

Indenoquinoxaline-Based Spiro-Heterocycles: Synthesis, Structural Characterization, MEDT Study, and Dual Inhibition of Kinase-Related Enzymes EGFR and VEGFR2. (PubMed, Chem Biodivers)
However, compound 4f displayed a unique antiproliferative potency on HepG2 cells (7.9 µM) and a promising cytotoxicity in MCF-7 (13.5 µM), compared to sorafenib with IC50 values of 2.1 and 2.3 µM against MCF-7 and HepG-2 cancer cells. Compound 4f treatment induced total apoptosis in the HepG2 cancer cells by 36.3-fold, arresting the cell proliferation at the G1-phase by 83.4%. Accordingly, compounds 4l and 4f exhibited target-oriented chemotherapeutic activity against liver cancer.

Retrospective analysis of sorafenib combined with interferon α-1b, interleukin-2, and thalidomide as maintenance therapy in FLT3-ITD-positive acute myeloid leukemia. (PubMed, Front Oncol)
During maintenance therapy with sorafenib combined with ITI, median relapse-free survival (mRFS) was also not reached, with 12- and 24-month RFS rates of 73.7% (14/19) and 57.9% (11/19), respectively. The sorafenib combined with ITI regimen is an effective maintenance therapy for FLT3-ITD (+) AML, significantly reducing relapse risk and prolonging survival.
