Abstrakt: Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor inhibitors (VEGFRis) improve cancer survival but are associated with treatment-limiting hypertension, often attributed to endothelial cell (EC) dysfunction. Using phosphoproteomic profiling of VEGFRi-treated ECs, drugs were screened for mitigators of VEGFRi-induced EC dysfunction and validated in primary aortic ECs, mice, and canine cancer patients. VEGFRi treatment significantly raised systolic blood pressure (SBP) and increased markers of endothelial and renal dysfunction in mice and canine cancer patients. a-Adrenergic-antagonists were identified as drugs that most oppose the VEGFRi proteomic signature. Doxazosin, one such a-antagonist, prevented EC dysfunction in murine, canine, and human aortic ECs. In mice with sorafenib-induced-hypertension, doxazosin mitigated EC dysfunction but not hypertension or glomerular endotheliosis, while lisinopril mitigated hypertension and glomerular endotheliosis without impacting EC function. Hence, reversing EC dysfunction was insufficient to mitigate VEGFRi-induced-hypertension in this mouse model. Canine cancer patients with VEGFRi-induced-hypertension were randomized to doxazosin or lisinopril and both agents significantly decreased SBP. The canine clinical trial supports safety and efficacy of doxazosin and lisinopril as antihypertensives for VEGFRi-induced-hypertension and the potential of trials in canines with spontaneous cancer to accelerate translation. The overall findings demonstrate the utility of phosphoproteomics to identify EC-protective agents to mitigate cardio-oncology side effects. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
