Multikinase-Inhibitor Screening in Drug-resistant Osteosarcoma Patient-derived Orthotopic Xenograft Mouse Models Identifies the Clinical Potential of Regorafenib.

AbstractBACKGROUND/AIM:
Osteosarcoma is a recalcitrant heterogenous malignancy. The aim of the present study was to compare a series of multikinase inhibitors (MKIs) for efficacy on two drug-resistant osteosarcoma patient-derived orthotopic xenograft (PDOX) models in order to identify a clinical candidate.
MATERIALS AND METHODS:
The two osteosarcoma PDOX models were tested for response to the following MKIs: pazopanib, sunitinib, sorafenib, crizotinib, and regorafenib, in comparison to first-line treatment with cisplatinum and an untreated control.
RESULTS:
Regorafenib led to regression of osteosarcoma in both PDOXs. Total necrosis was observed pathologically in the regorafenib-treated tumors. Sorafenib arrested growth, without inducing regression, in one osteosarcoma model but not the other, and the other MKIs only slowed tumor growth.
CONCLUSION:
The present study demonstrated that regorafenib is much more effective than the other MKIs tested and has clinical potential against recalcitrant osteosarcoma.
