    Kaposi’s sarcoma Understanding
    Kaposi’s sarcoma: Overview
    Kaposi sarcoma, also called idiopathic multiple pigmented hemorrhagic sarcoma, rare and usually lethal cancer of the tissues beneath the surface of the skin or of the mucous membranes. The disease can spread to other organs, including the liver, lungs, and intestinal tract. Kaposi sarcoma is characterized by red-purple or blue-brown lesions of the skin, mucous membranes, and other organs. Kaposi sarcoma originates from endothelial cells in response to infection by human herpesvirus type 8 (HHV-8). Immunosuppression (particularly by AIDS and drugs for organ transplant recipients) markedly increases the likelihood of Kaposi sarcoma in HHV-8–infected patients. KS is categorized into the following 4 types: Classic Kaposi sarcoma, AIDS-associated Kaposi sarcoma, Endemic Kaposi sarcoma, and Iatrogenic Kaposi sarcoma. Symptoms depend on specific organ involvement. Mucosal lesions appear as bluish to violaceous macules, plaques, and tumors. GI lesions can bleed, sometimes extensively, but usually are asymptomatic. Diagnosis of Kaposi sarcoma is confirmed by punch biopsy. Surgical excision, cryotherapy, electrocoagulation, intralesional chemotherapy, or possibly topical imiquimod are recommended for superficial lesions and for local radiation therapy and chemotherapy for multiple lesions, diffuse involvement, or lymph node disease.

    Kaposi’s sarcoma Emerging Drugs Chapters
    This segment of the Kaposi’s sarcoma report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.
    Kaposi’s sarcoma Emerging Drugs
    • sEphB4-HAS: Vasgene Therapeutics
    sEphB4-HSA, is a recombinant fusion protein, that is being developed by VasGene Therapeutics for the treatment of cancer. sEphB4-HSA functions as a decoy receptor for the membrane-bound ligand Ephrin-B2 (Efnb2) and interferes with the binding of Efnb2 to its native receptors, including EphB4 and EphA3. This may result in a reduction of angiogenesis and a reduction in cell growth of Efnb2 and/or EphB4 over-expressing tumor cells. In addition, this agent also prevents the angiogenic effects of numerous growth factors due to interactions between Efnb2 and EphB4. The drug is being evaluated in Phase II clinical trial for the treatment of patients with Kaposi’s sarcoma.
