Donafenib is an improved version of sorafenib in which deuterium is substituted into the drug's chemical structure, enhancing its stability and antitumor activity. Donafenib exhibits enhanced antitumor activity and better tolerance than sorafenib in preclinical and clinical studies. However, the specific mechanism of its effect on hepatocellular carcinoma has not been reported.

Background: Sorafenib is a first-line treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC); however, acquired resistance often results in a poor prognosis, indicating a need for more effective therapies. Sorafenib induces cell death through an iron-dependent mechanism known as ferroptosis, which is closely associated with the onset and progression of HCC.

Methods: This study investigated the role of ACSL3 in sorafenib resistance and ferroptosis in HCC.

Background: Sorafenib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that belongs to the landscape of treatments for advanced stages of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The induction of cell death and cell cycle arrest by Sorafenib has been associated with mitochondrial dysfunction in liver cancer cells. Our research aim was to decipher underlying oxidative and nitrosative stress induced by Sorafenib leading to mitochondrial dysfunction in liver cancer cells.

Sorafenib promotes Treg cell differentiation to compromise its efficacy via VEGFR/AKT/Foxo1 signaling in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Unlabelled: Our study revealed that sorafenib (Sora) induced the formation of an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by promoting the differentiation of regulatory T (Treg) cells through VEGFR/AKT/Foxo1 signaling, leading to compromised Sora efficacy. Importantly, combination treatment with an anti-CD25 antibody or the Foxo1 inhibitor AS1842856 inhibited Treg cell differentiation and increased the therapeutic efficacy of Sora in HCC.

Background & Aims: Sora is the first-line drug for advanced HCC.

Department of Gastroenterology, Zhongshan Hospital of Xiamen University, School of Medicine, Xiamen University, Xiamen, Fujian, China.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to monitor adverse events (AEs) linked to Sorafenib, a drug used for treating liver, kidney, and thyroid cancers, focusing on enhancing patient safety.
  • Reports from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) from 2004 to 2024 were analyzed, revealing a total of 18,624 patients and 82,857 AEs across 26 organ systems.
  • The findings included both expected AEs, like diarrhea and fatigue, and unexpected ones, such as gait inability and hyperkeratosis, highlighting the need for ongoing monitoring to identify new reactions and improve patient care.
