Abstract:
:Purpose. Super-selective intra-ophthalmic artery chemotherapy (SSIOAC) is an eye-targeted drug-delivery strategy to treat retinoblastoma, the most prevalent primary ocular malignancy in children. Unfortunately, recent clinical reports associate adverse vascular toxicities with SSIOAC using melphalan, the most commonly used chemotherapeutic. Methods. To explore reasons for the unexpected vascular toxicities, we examined the effects of melphalan, as well as carboplatin (another chemotherapeutic used with retinoblastoma), in vitro using primary human retinal endothelial cells, and in vivo using a non-human primate model, which allowed us to monitor the retina in real time during SSIOAC. Results. Both melphalan and carboplatin triggered human retinal endothelial cell migration, proliferation, apoptosis, and increased expression of adhesion proteins intracellullar adhesion molecule-1 [ICAM-1] and soluble chemotactic factors (IL-8). Melphalan increased monocytic adhesion to human retinal endothelial cells. Consistent with these in vitro findings, histopathology showed vessel wall endothelial cell changes, leukostasis, and vessel occlusion. Conclusions. These results reflect a direct interaction of chemotherapeutic drugs with both the vascular endothelium and monocytes. The vascular toxicity may be related to the pH, the pulsatile delivery, or the chemotherapeutic drugs used. Our long-term goal is to determine if changes in the drug of choice and/or delivery procedures will decrease vascular toxicity and lead to better eye-targeted treatment strategies.
