Colony-stimulating factor-1 receptor inhibition combined with paclitaxel exerts effective antitumor effects in the treatment of ovarian cancer

Ovarian cancer is the tumor with the highest mortality among gynecological malig-nancies.Studies have confirmed that paclitaxel chemoresistance is associated with increased infiltration of tumor-associated macrophages(TAMs)in the microenvironment.Colony-stimu-lating factor 1(CSF-1)receptor(CSF-1R)plays a key role in regulating the number and differ-entiation of macrophages in certain solid tumors.There are few reports on the effects of targeted inhibition of CSF-1 R in combination with chemotherapy on ovarian cancer and the tu-mor microenvironment.Here,we explored the antitumor efficacy and possible mechanisms of the CSF-1R inhibitor pexidartinib(PLX3397)when combined with the first-line chemothera-peutic agent paclitaxel in the treatment of ovarian cancer.We found that CSF-1 R is highly ex-pressed in ovarian cancer cells and correlates with poor prognosis.Treatment by PLX3397 in combination with paclitaxel significantly inhibited the growth of ovarian cancer both in vitro and in vivo.Blockade of CSF-1R altered the macrophage phenotype and reprogrammed the immunosuppressive cell population in the tumor microenvironment.
