Therapeutic potential of adenosine receptor modulators in cancer treatment
Prasenjit Maity, Swastika Ganguly, Pran Kishore Deb
Abstract
AR axis are also being tested in clinical trials, both as standalone treatments and in combination with anti-PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapies. This review primarily focuses on the signaling pathways and the therapeutic potential of various adenosine receptor agonists and antagonists across various cancer types, highlighting their ongoing evaluation in preclinical and clinical trials, both as monotherapies and in rational combination with immunotherapy, chemotherapy, or targeted therapies, potentially leading to the development of advanced treatments that could aid in tumor suppression.
