1 Brief Report Serum Thymidine Kinse 1 Activity in the Prognosis nd Monitoring of Chemotherpy in Lung Cncer Ptients: A Brief Report Benjmin Nismn, PhD,* Hovv Nechushtn, MD, PhD,* Him Birn, MD, Hds Gntz-Sorotsky, MD,* Nir Peled, MD, Simon Gronowitz, PhD, nd Tmr Peretz, MD* Introduction: Thymidine kinse 1 (TK1) is metbolic enzyme involved in DNA synthesis. Most stndrd tretment protocols for lung cncer (LC) include cytotoxic gents, which re potentil modultors of TK1. We imed to ssess the prognostic significnce of serum TK1 ctivity nd its role in monitoring chemotherpy in LC ptients. Methods: TK1 ctivity ws mesured using the DiviTum (Biovic) ssy in ser from 233 ptients with non smll-cell lung cncer (NSCLC), 91 with smll-cell lung cncer (SCLC), nd 90 with benign lung disese. Results: TK1 ctivity ws significntly ssocited with ge, performnce sttus, nd stge in NSCLC nd with stge nd weight loss in SCLC. In multivrite nlysis, pretretment TK1 ctivity, djusted for performnce sttus, stge, nd weight loss, independently ffected survivl in NSCLC (reltive risk =1.45, p = 0.031) nd SCLC (reltive risk = 2.49, p = 0.001). In NSCLC ptients, djusted elevted TK1 ctivity (>100 Du/L) t pretretment ws significnt predictor of tretment filure (odds rtio = 2.55, p = 0.01). A smll (less thn twofold) increse in TK1 ctivity fter the first nd second cycle of chemotherpy ws significntly ssocited with tretment filure nd poor overll survivl. Conclusions: Elevted pretretment serum TK1 ctivity ws n independent, dverse prognostic fctor, bsed on survivl, in the two min histologicl types of LC. A smll (less thn twofold) increse in TK1 ctivity fter the first nd second cycle of chemotherpy ws ssocited with tretment filure nd poor overll survivl.

E-mil: nismn@hdssh.org.il DOI: /JTO Copyright 2014 by the Interntionl Assocition for the Study of Lung Cncer ISSN: /14/ One of the most importnt biologicl mechnisms of cncer ggressiveness is relted to uncontrolled tumor prolifertion; its mrkers hve been shown to hve prognostic vlue when mesured in lung cncer (LC) ptients. 1,2 To tke these mesurements, however, biopsy or resection my be required. One such mrker is thymidine kinse 1 (TK1), which is the key cytosolic enzyme in the slvge pthwy for deoxythymidine monophosphte (dtmp) synthesis; becuse TK1 is involved in DNA synthesis, it is considered mrker for cell prolifertion. Notbly, dividing cells relese TK1 during mitotic exit, which is medited by the ubiquitin system. 3 Thus, TK1 ctivity cn be detected in the serum. Recently, new highly sensitive ssy for the mesurement of TK ctivity in serum hs been developed tht is bsed on immobiliztion of the phosphorylted rection product by incorportion into DNA. 4 Korkmz et l. 5 evluted this ssy in smll group of 48 ptients with dvnced non smll-cell lung cncer (NSCLC) nd found significnt correltion between serum TK1 ctivity nd primry tumor mximum stndrdized uptke, bsed on 18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomogrphy scns, nd overll survivl. The present study ws imed to ssess the prognostic significnce of the new TK1 ssy in the two min histologicl types of LC, NSCLC nd smll-cell lung cncer (SCLC). Although TK1 levels detected in the serum primrily reflect prolifertive ctivity, this enzyme is n importnt element of complex system of kinses in the slvge pthwy, complementing the min de novo pthwy of dtmp synthesis. The ctivities of the two pthwys re coordinted with the trnsport systems of nucleosides. 6 There re mny fctors modifying these systems. Most stndrd tretment protocols for LC include cytotoxic gents tht re potentil modultors of TK1 ctivity. 6 8 Therefore, we investigted the usefulness of this ssy to monitor tretment with these gents. METHODS AND PATIENTS This prospective study ws performed on consecutive ptients between November 1, 2008, nd October 30, It ws pproved by the Institutionl Ethicl Review Bord ( HMO) nd included 90 ptients with benign lung disese 1568 Journl of Thorcic Oncology Volume 9, Number 10, October 2014

Two tumor response ctegories were pplied: progressive disese (PD) nd nonprogression (NP), including complete remission, prtil response, nd stble disese. Sttisticl Methods Kruskl-Wllis, Mnn-Whitney, Wilcoxon, Spermn s correltion, Fisher s exct test, logistic regression, Kpln- Meier, nd Cox survivl models, nd receiver operting chrcteristic curves were used for sttisticl nlyses. RESULTS TK1 Activity Assy in NSCLC Ptients with both NSCLC nd SCLC showed significntly higher TK1 ctivities compred with those with BLD (medins 129 nd 325 versus 74 Du/L; p = nd p < 0.001, respectively). Furthermore, ptients with SCLC hd higher TK1 ctivity thn those with NSCLC (p = 0.017). A cutoff vlue between low- nd high-serum TK1 ws set t 100 Du/L the closest point on the receiver operting chrcteristic curve to the optiml sensitivity nd specificity in the LC (NSCLC + SCLC) versus BLD model. In NSCLC (Tble 1), the serum TK1 ctivity ws ssocited with ge, performnce sttus (PS), nd disese stge. Medin survivl for ptients with norml versus elevted TK1 ctivity ws 18.6 versus 9.0 months, respectively (p = 0.001, Fig. 1A). Multivrite nlysis (Tble 2) selected PS, disese stge, weight loss (WL), nd serum TK1 s the most importnt pretretment chrcteristics with independent impcts on survivl. Of 233 ptients with NSCLC, 199 were treted with chemotherpy. The pretretment ctivity of TK1 in PD ptients (n = 74) ws significntly higher thn tht in NP ptients (n = 125) (medin 183 versus 105 Du/L, respectively, p = 0.005). In the logistic regression, the elevted TK1 ctivity (>100 Du/L), djusted for stge, PS, nd WL, ws significnt predictor of tretment filure (odds rtio [OR] = 2.55, 95% confidence intervl, ). TK1 Activity Assy in SCLC In SCLC, TK1 levels were ssocited (Tble 1) with disese stge nd WL. The medin survivl for ptients with norml TK1 ctivity ws longer thn tht for those with elevted levels (16.5 versus 8.3 months, respectively, p = 0.003, Fig. 1B). TABLE 2.

The bsl TK1 ctivity in PD ptients (n = 21, medin 730 Du/L) ws higher thn tht in NP ptients (n = 64, medin 197 Du/L, p = 0.041). The elevted TK1 ctivity did not rech sttisticl significnce for the prediction of tretment filure (OR = 1.95, p = 0.09). TK1 Activity Assy in Monitoring Chemotherpy Ptients receiving pltinum-bsed therpy, combined with pemetrexed (n = 43), gemcitbine (n = 13), vinorelbine (n = 22), nd etoposide (n = 18), were monitored before the first (bsl), second, nd third cycles of chemotherpy. A significnt increse in TK1 ctivity ws observed fter the first nd second cycles for ll pplied regimens (Tble 3). However, the increse ws lrger for pemetrexed nd gemcitbine (medins, second/first rtio: 6.3 nd 8.1, respectively; medins, third/ first rtio: 12.4 nd 22.8, respectively) compred with vinorelbine nd etoposide (medins, second/first rtio: 1.5 nd 2.2, respectively; medins, third/first rtio: 1.8 nd 1.9, respectively). Ptients were divided into two groups: (1) treted with pemetrexed or gemcitbine nd (2) treted with vinorelbine or etoposide.

NP ptients in both groups fter the first nd second cycles of chemotherpy (Tble 4). However, this increse ws smller in PD ptients thn in NP ptients, with the exception of one subset of ptients in the NP group fter the first cycle of pltinum with vinorelbine or etoposide. After the second cycle, the rtio in this NP group reched 3. The study popultion ws split in two groups ccording to the increse in TK1 ctivity, using cutoff of 2.0 (overll medin increse in PD ptients for ll regimens). The increse ws more thn twofold fter the first cycle of chemotherpy in 12 of 27 PD ptients (44%) nd in 49 of 69 NP ptients (71%) (p = 0.021). After the second cycle, more thn twofold increse occurred in eight of 23 PD ptients (38%) nd 58 of 73 NP ptients (80%) (p = 0.003). Ptients with more thn twofold increse in TK1 ctivity fter the first (Fig. 2A) nd second (Fig. 2B) cycles of chemotherpy showed significntly longer medin survivl compred with those with less thn or equl to twofold increse (17.5 versus 9.9 months, p = nd 19.6 versus 8.3 months, p = 0.002, respectively). We nlyzed reltionship between TK1 ctivity nd WBC ccount during chemotherpy. Spermn s correltion coefficients t regimens contining pemetrexed, gemcitbine, vinorelbine, nd etoposide were 0.13 (p = 0.202), 0.26 (p = 0.09), 0.43 (p = 0.003), nd 0.45 (p = 0.007), respectively. DISCUSSION The pretretment serum TK1 ctivity detected in this study reflects the overll condition (prolifertive bckground) of ech individul. The TK1 ctivity of the lung tumor nd its contribution to mesured TK1 ctivity in serum remin unknown. The higher TK1 ctivity of LC ptients versus tht of BLD is conceivbly due to the higher prolifertion of LC. The significnt ssocitions of TK1 ctivity with tumor burden both in NSCLC nd in SCLC my indicte, t lest in prt, its tumor origin. The DiviTum ssy explored in this study demonstrted the clinicl importnce of mesuring TK1 ctivity s prognostic mrker in NSCLC nd SCLC. In both subtypes of LC, elevted TK1 predicted poor survivl fter the djustment for disese stge, WL, nd PS. The present study is consistent with previous, retrospective study on TK1 ctivity, mesured by rdioenzyme immunossy. 10 The uthors of tht study pointed to the promising prognostic vlue of pretherpeutic TK for overll survivl in multivrite nlyses of NSCLC ptients. Moreover, we showed tht elevted pretretment TK1 ctivity in NSCLC, fter djustment for stge, PS, nd WL, remins significnt predictor of tretment filure with n OR of We find tht pltinum-bsed combintions with pemetrexed, gemcitbine, vinorelbine, nd etoposide induced significnt increse in TK1 ctivity. However, the strongest increse ws observed in regimens tht included pemetrexed or gemcitbine, wheres less pronounced effect ws observed in those tht included etoposide or vinorelbine. Topolcn et l. 11 previously observed n increse in TK1 ctivity in colorectl cncer during chemotherpy with regimens tht included 5-fluorourcil (5-FU). Cytotoxic gents, such s pemetrexed, gemcitbine (through its metbolite, difluorodeoxyuridine monophosphte), nd 5-FU, re strong inhibitors of thymidylte synthse nd the de novo pthwy of dtmp synthesis. 6,12,13 To overcome this effect, cells up-regulte the compensting slvge pthwy for dtmp synthesis. The incresed ctivity of the slvge pthwy leds to n incresed uptke of thymidine Copyright 2014 by the Interntionl Assocition for the Study of Lung Cncer 1571

TK1, thymidine kinse. through ctivtion of the membrne equilibrtive nucleoside trnsporter 1 (ENT1) delivery system. 6,14,15 Recent experimentl dt obtined with HeL cells tht highly express ENT1 demonstrted tht etoposide ws strong inducer of ENT1 ctivity nd TK1 expression. 8 Activtion of the slvge TK pthwy nd/or the ENT1 system ppers to be the min fctor explining incresed TK1 ctivity fter tretment with pemetrexed-, nd gemcitbine-, or etoposide-contining regimens. At these conditions, TK1 behves s metbolic mrker, reflecting chnges in two pthwys of dtmp synthesis. The increse of serum TK1 ctivity during chemotherpy my result from metbolic chnges both in tumor nd norml tissues. This is confirmed by the observtion of incresed TK1 ctivity t the use of 5-FU-contining regimens in djuvnt setting in colon cncer ptients. 11 The overll increse of TK1 ctivity might include for exmple the repliction effect from leukocyte. Higher increse denotes higher recovery of the leukocytes nd might contribute better tretment response to tretment. This mechnism might be importnt t the use of vinorelbine nd etoposide. Actully, t these regimens, we observed better correltion between the TK1 ctivity nd WBC counts during chemotherpy (r = ). We found tht the extent of increse in TK1 ctivity t the beginning of LC tretment my predict its effectiveness nd prognosis. An nlysis of chnges during chemotherpy showed tht more thn twofold increse in enzyme ctivity ws more often found in NP ptients thn in PD ptients fter the first nd second cycles of chemotherpy. Survivl nlysis lso showed longer survivl for ptients who hd more thn twofold increse in TK1 ctivity fter either the first or the second cycle of chemotherpy. Thus, monitoring by TK1 erly during chemotherpy could provide vluble informtion for detection of nonresponders, thereby preventing unnecessry toxicity. Our results show tht the difference between two response groups ws evident lredy fter the first cycle of tretment with regimens contining thymidylte synthse blocking gents: pemetrexed nd gemcitbine. Other mechnisms pper to be responsible for the TK1 ctivity chnge t the use of etoposide/ vinorelbine, nd this my be reson for delying increse, which hs become evident only fter the second cycle. Further studies re needed to revel nd describe dditionl fctors contributing to overll TK1 condition during chemotherpy nd improving ssocitive models. REFERENCES 1. Hnhn D, Weinberg RA.
