    Abstract Radiation therapy is one of the most commonly used treatments for cancer. Radiation modifiers are agents that alter tumor or normal tissue response to radiation, such as radiation sensitizers and radiation protectors. Radiation sensitizers target aspects of tumor molecular biology or physiology to enhance tumor cell killing after irradiation. Radioprotectors prevent damage of normal tissues selectively. Radiation modifiers remain largely investigational at present, with the promise that molecular characterization of tumors may enhance the capacity for successful clinical development moving forward. A variety of radiation modifiers are described.

    Abstract Therapeutic radiation is used to treat a variety of cancers in organs and tissues throughout the body. Exposure of benign normal tissue to radiation can result in late injury in a subset of patients. Radiation induced fibrosis is one chronic, progressive late toxicity of radiation exposure that can occur in many organs and tissues, including skin and lung. Radiation fibrosis has few effective treatments. The process of radiation fibrosis is known to involve many mitogenic and immunomodulatory cytokines, inflammatory programs, and processes such as stem cell senescence. Murine models of radiation fibrosis can be used to evaluate agents that may prevent, mitigate, or treat this injury. Here, we provide a detailed protocol for the development of radiation induced dermal and pulmonary fibrosis in mice and describe protocols for the measurement of this injury in treated tissue.

    Abstract Prostate cancers that progress despite androgen deprivation develop into castration-resistant prostate cancer, a fatal disease with few treatment options. In this review, we discuss the current understanding of prostate cancer subtypes and alterations in the DNA damage response (DDR) that can predispose to the development of prostate cancer and affect its progression. We identify barriers to conventional treatments, such as radiotherapy, and discuss the development of new therapies, many of which target the DDR or take advantage of recurring genetic alterations in the DDR. We place this in the context of advances in understanding the genetic variation and immune landscape of CRPC that could help guide their use in future treatment strategies. Finally, we discuss several new and emerging agents that may advance the treatment of lethal disease, highlighting selected clinical trials.

    Abstract Purpose: Progressive, irreversible radiation-induced pulmonary fibrosis (RIPF) is a clinically significant intermediate- to a late-occurring side effect of radiotherapy. Known mechanisms of RIPF include oxidative stress-induced activation of TGF-β with activation of SMAD signaling, TNF-α elaboration, and activation of the Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) mediated production of angiotensin II with resulting activation of profibrotic cytokine signaling and vasoconstriction. The pioneering work of John Moulder, to whom this paper is dedicated, and several of his colleagues demonstrated that inhibiting the conversion of ACE with drugs such as Captopril, Enalapril, and Losartan can ameliorate radiation fibrosis in various tissues. While this work led several groups to probe mechanism-based pharmacological mitigation of RIPF, in this article, we explore and discuss the roles of microRNAs (miRNA) and therapy-induced senescence (TIS) in the pathogenesis of and potential biomarkers for RIPF.
    Conclusion: Our analysis of the published literature in the last decade on RIPF, miRNA, and TIS identifies TIS as a mechanism in the onset and progression of RIPF, which is regulated through several miRNAs. This work may lead to the discovery and development of the next generation of miRNA therapeutics and/or the repurposing of approved pharmaceutical agents and the development of early biomarker panels to predict RIPF.

    Abstract Advances in radiation techniques have enabled the precise delivery of higher doses of radiotherapy to tumours, while sparing surrounding healthy tissues. Consequently, the incidence of radiation toxicities has declined, and will likely continue to improve as radiotherapy further evolves. Nonetheless, ionizing radiation elicits tissue-specific toxicities that gradually develop into radiation-induced fibrosis, a common long-term side-effect of radiotherapy. Radiation fibrosis is characterized by an aberrant wound repair process, which promotes the deposition of extensive scar tissue, clinically manifesting as a loss of elasticity, tissue thickening, and organ-specific functional consequences. In addition to improving the existing technologies and guidelines directing the administration of radiotherapy, understanding the pathogenesis underlying radiation fibrosis is essential for the success of cancer treatments. This review integrates the principles for radiotherapy dosimetry to minimize off-target effects, the tissue-specific clinical manifestations, the key cellular and molecular drivers of radiation fibrosis, and emerging therapeutic opportunities for both prevention and treatment.
