Abstract
Eribulin is a pharmaceutically optimized analog of the marine natural product halichondrin B. As its clinically formulated mesylate salt (Halaven®), eribulin is used for treatment of certain patients with advanced breast cancer and liposarcoma. Mechanistically, eribulin combines cytotoxic tubulin-based antimitotic effects with non-cytotoxic effects on tumor biology, including vascular remodeling, increased perfusion, mitigation of hypoxia and reversal of epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT). Reversal of EMT involves cell differentiation pathways that impinge on the G1/S cell cycle boundary. Since estrogenic signaling also impinges on the G1/S boundary, we asked if eribulin could combine advantageously with inhibitors of cyclin dependent kinases and hormonal agents that disrupt estrogenic signaling. Using PDX models of hormone receptor positive (HR+) breast cancer, we previously showed that combining eribulin and palbociclib is considerably more effective than either agent alone, using a “palbociclib holiday” strategy of withholding daily palbociclib doses the day before and the day of weekly eribulin doses to avoid possible cell cycle based antagonism. Here, we ask if the palbociclib holiday is strictly necessary for robust eribulin + palbociclib combination activity, and if triple combinations of eribulin, palbociclib and fulvestrant result in even better anticancer activity than doublet dosing. For the holiday/no holiday comparison, 0.125 mg/kg eribulin was dosed iv Q7Dx3, with palbociclib dosed po either at 150 mg/kg or 107 mg/kg on Q1Dx5[x3 weeks] (holiday) or Q1Dx21 (no holiday) schedules, respectively, resulting in equal palbociclib dose intensities for the 2 schedules. Results showed that synergism was seen in combination with or without palbociclib holiday, but superior results occur with holiday. Using the holiday strategy, we next investigated triple combinations of eribulin, palbociclib and fulvestrant. As single agents at the minimally effective doses selected, eribulin, palbociclib and fulvestrant led to treated/control values (T/C%) of 64%, 63% and 48%, respectively. Combining eribulin and palbociclib led to markedly superior anticancer activity (T/C 23%). Combining eribulin and fulvestrant also led to superior activity (T/C 22%), as did combining fulvestrant and palbociclib (T/C 19%). The triple combination generated the most robust activity at T/C 8%. By mouse RECIST criteria, 10%, 10% and 20% partial responses (PR) were observed for each doublet (fulvestrant/palbociclib, fulvestrant/eribulin, palbociclib/eribulin), respectively. In contrast, 90% PR was seen for the triple combination. These preclinical results support clinical exploration of eribulin, palbociclib and fulvestrant triple combinations for appropriate patients with HR+ breast cancers.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
