Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicine compositions, and particularly relates to a traditional Chinese medicine composition for treating skin toxicity reaction of anti-angiogenic drugs and a traditional Chinese medicine preparation. BACKGROUND
[0002] Anti-angiogenic drugs (such as VEGF inhibitors, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, etc.) inhibit tumor growth by targeting angiogenesis-related pathways, but also interfere with normal skin blood vessels and cell functions, causing various skin reactions. The principle mainly involves the following mechanisms:
[0003] 1. Direct effect of angiogenesis inhibition
[0004] VEGF signaling pathway blockage: VEGF is a key factor for maintaining skin microvascular structure and function. Inhibition of VEGF or its receptors (such as VEGFR) can lead to: skin microvascular degeneration, reduction of dermal capillary network, local ischemia and hypoxia; endothelial cell damage, increased vascular permeability, skin edema or hemorrhage (such as erythema and blisters in hand-foot syndrome);
[0005] Insufficient epidermal nutrition supply: impaired blood vessel function leads to metabolic disorders of keratinocytes, manifested as dry skin, desquamation or ulceration.
[0006] 2. Skin barrier destruction and inflammatory response
[0007] Impaired epidermal repair: VEGF is involved in wound healing, and its inhibition can delay epidermal regeneration (such as delayed wound healing).
[0008] Release of inflammatory factors: hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF-1α) activates pro-inflammatory pathways (such as TNF-α, IL-6), recruits neutrophils and macrophages, and aggravates inflammation (such as skin rash and itching).
[0009] Hand-foot syndrome (HFS): drugs accumulate in the palm / plantar apocrine gland area, directly damaging the vascular endothelium, causing local thrombotic microangiopathy and inflammation, damaging sweat glands, and causing dryness, peeling, and pain.
[0010] 3. Changes in immune microenvironment
[0011] Imbalance of pro-inflammatory cytokines: anti-angiogenic drugs may enhance Th1 / Th17 immune response, driving inflammatory skin diseases (such as psoriasis-like skin rash).
[0012] Autoimmune response: some patients have positive anti-nuclear antibody (ANA), which may induce lupus erythematosus-like skin rash or photosensitivity.
[0013] 4. Typical skin reactions and mechanisms
[0014] Hand-foot syndrome: microvascular thrombosis + direct cytotoxicity → ischemic necrosis, inflammatory acne-like rash: abnormal differentiation of hair follicle keratinocytes → hair follicle obstruction, inflammation psoriasis-like dermatitis, the mechanism is:
[0015] (1) Inflammation-related: intradermal T cells, abnormal activation, neutrophils, inflammatory cell infiltration; IFN-γ↑;
[0016] (2) Immune-related: activation of Th17 pathway, IL-17 produced by IL-17 is the key to the pathogenesis; activation of STAT-3 pathway, increased IL-22 production, promoting the occurrence of psoriasis;
[0017] (3) Keratinocytes overdivide;
[0018] (4) Increased tortuosity of dermal blood vessels and capillaries;
[0019] (5) Related to immune and keratinocyte metabolic reprogramming: inhibition of glucose metabolism, reduction of blood sugar, inhibition of fatty acid synthesis, can inhibit inflammatory response, can reduce glucose metabolism.
[0020] Photosensitivity / erythema: drug phototoxicity + ultraviolet-induced oxidative stress. Common symptoms: itching, edema, pain, peeling, numbness of hands and feet.
[0021] For skin toxicity reactions of anti-angiogenic drugs, existing clinical management methods include:
[0022] Prevention: avoid sun exposure (reduce phototoxicity), moisturizing care (relieve dryness).
[0023] Symptomatic treatment:
[0024] Mild rash: topical glucocorticoids, antibiotic ointments;
[0025] Severe reactions (such as ulcers): suspend drug, systemically use anti-inflammatory or immunomodulatory agents;
[0026] Dose adjustment: reduce or stop drug according to skin toxicity grading (such as CTCAE standard).
[0027] At present, there is no clear and effective treatment for skin toxicity reactions of anti-angiogenic drugs, and prevention and symptomatic support treatment are mainly used, and the incidence rate is 30%-70%, many patients in clinical medication are seriously disturbed by it, and the quality of life is significantly decreased, at the same time, it leads to drug reduction and treatment interruption, ultimately affects the efficacy of tumor treatment, and skin toxicity reactions of anti-angiogenic drugs have become one of the side effects of drug restriction.

[0112] Example 5 Animal effectiveness experiment of traditional Chinese medicine composition
[0113] Establishment of animal model of skin toxicity reaction of anti-angiogenic drugs (such as VEGF inhibitors, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, etc.):
[0114] Model one
[0115] 26 male 6-week ICR mice were randomly divided into a control group (6 mice) and an experimental group (20 mice). The experimental group was continuously administered sorafenib (140 mg / kg, once a day) by gavage for 10 days, and the control group was administered solvent normal saline (4 ml / kg, once a day). When the mice developed skin toxicity reactions (itching, hair loss, skin rash, edema, etc.), the modeling was considered successful. After the modeling was successful, 5 successfully modeled mice in each group were divided into an experimental group A and an experimental group B. The control group was rubbed with normal saline on the back skin of the mice, the experimental group B was rubbed with the traditional Chinese medicine composition of Example 1 on the skin tissue of the skin toxicity reaction site of the mice, and the experimental group A was rubbed with normal saline on the skin tissue of the skin toxicity reaction site of the mice. All were rubbed three times a day. After one week, the mice were sacrificed, and the treated skin tissue was quickly collected and placed in pre-cooled PBS to wash away the blood, dried, and removed from the excess subcutaneous fat and fascia. Then, the skin tissue was weighed, homogenized, lysed, centrifuged, and the supernatant was collected. The IL-6, IL-17, and TNF-α were detected by ELISA, and the detection results are shown in Table 2.
