Abstract:
Skin cancer encompasses a range of cutaneous malignancies, with non-melanoma skin cancers (NMSCs) being the most common neoplasm worldwide. Skin exposure is the leading risk factor for initiating NMSC. Ultraviolet (UV) light induces various genomic aberrations in both tumor-promoting and tumor-suppressing genes in epidermal cells. In conjunction with interactions with a changed stromal microenvironment and local immune suppression, these aberrations contribute to the occurrence and expansion of cancerous lesions. Surgical excision is still the most common treatment for these lesions; however, locally advanced or metastatic disease significantly increases the chances of morbidity or death. In recent years, numerous pharmacological targets were found through extensive research on the pathogenic mechanisms of NMSCs, leading to the development of novel treatments including Hedgehog pathway inhibitors for advanced and metastatic basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors for locally advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) and Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC). Despite the efficacy of these new drugs, drug resistance and tolerability issues often arise with long-term treatment. Ongoing studies aim to identify alternative strategies with reduced adverse effects and increased tolerability. This review summarizes the current and emerging therapies used to treat NMSC.
摘要:
皮肤癌包括一系列皮肤恶性肿瘤,非黑色素瘤皮肤癌(NMSCs)是全球最常见的肿瘤。皮肤暴露是启动NMSC的主要危险因素。紫外线(UV)光诱导表皮细胞中肿瘤促进和肿瘤抑制基因的各种基因组畸变。结合与改变的基质微环境和局部免疫抑制的相互作用,这些像差有助于癌性病变的发生和扩大。手术切除仍然是这些病变最常见的治疗方法;然而,局部晚期或转移性疾病会显著增加发病或死亡的几率.近年来,通过对NMSCs致病机制的广泛研究,发现了许多药理靶点,导致开发新型治疗方法,包括用于晚期和转移性基底细胞癌(BCC)的Hedgehog途径抑制剂和用于局部晚期皮肤鳞状细胞癌(cSCC)和Merkel细胞癌(MCC)的PD-1/PD-L1抑制剂。尽管这些新药有效,长期治疗经常会出现耐药性和耐受性问题。正在进行的研究旨在确定减少不良反应和增加耐受性的替代策略。这篇综述总结了用于治疗NMSC的当前和新兴疗法。
