However, challenges remain with both efficacy and safety of ADCs. This study describes novel trastuzumab-auristatin conjugates with the hydrophilic monomethylauristatin E (MMAE) prodrug MMAU, and optimization of a glycopeptide linker leading to a wider therapeutic window. Trastuzumab was conjugated with auristatin payloads via a series of linkers using a stabilized maleimide handle. The ADCs were characterized in vitro and their relative in vivo antitumor efficacies were assessed in HER2+ xenograft models. Relative linker stabilities and the mechanism of linker cleavage were studied using in vitro assays. Toxicity and toxicokinetics of the best performing ADC were evaluated in cynomolgus monkey (cyno). The trastuzumab-MMAU ADC with stabilized glycopeptide linker showed maleimide stabilization and higher resistance to cleavage by serum and lysosomal enzymes compared with a valine-citrulline conjugated trastuzumab ADC (trastuzumab-vc-MMAE). A single dose of 1 or 2 mg/kg of trastuzumab-MMAU at drug-to-antibody ratios (DAR) of eight and four respectively resulted in xenograft tumor growth inhibition, with superior efficacy to trastuzumab-vc-MMAE. Trastuzumab-MMAUDAR4 was tolerated at doses up to 12 mg/kg in cyno, which represents 2- to 4-fold higher dose than that observed with vedotin ADCs, and had increased terminal half-life and exposure. The optimized trastuzumab-MMAU ADC showed potent antitumor activity and was well tolerated with excellent pharmacokinetics in nonhuman primates, leading to a superior preclinical therapeutic window.

Their complexity and tendency for metastases make treatment challenging, highlighting the need for new therapeutic approaches to improve patient survival. The difficulties in treating these cancers primarily stem from abnormalities within the tumor microenvironment (TME), which leads to reduced blood flow and oxygen levels in tumors. Consequently, this hampers the effective delivery of drugs to tumors and diminishes treatment efficacy despite higher toxic doses of chemotherapy. In this study, we tested the mechanotherapeutic ketotifen combined with either pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) or pegylated liposomal coencapsulated alendronate-doxorubicin (PLAD) plus anti-programmed cell death protein 1 antibody in mouse models of fibrosarcoma and osteosarcoma. We found that ketotifen successfully reprogrammed the TME by reducing tumor stiffness and increasing perfusion, proven by changes measured by shear-wave elastography and contrast-enhanced ultrasound, respectively, and enhanced the therapeutic efficacy of our nanomedicine-based chemo-immunotherapy protocols. Furthermore, we observed a trend toward improved antitumor responses when nano-chemotherapy is given alongside anti-programmed cell death protein 1 and when the immunomodulator alendronate was present in the treatment. We next investigated the mechanisms of action of this combination. Ketotifen combined with nanomedicine-based chemo-immunotherapy increased T-cell infiltration, specifically cytotoxic CD8+ T cells and CD4+ T helper cells, and decreased the number of regulatory T cells. In addition, the combination also altered the polarization of tumor-associated macrophages, favoring the M1 immune-supportive phenotype over the M2 immunosuppressive phenotype. Collectively, our findings provide evidence that ketotifen-induced TME reprogramming can improve the efficacy of nanomedicine-based chemo-immunotherapy in sarcomas.</p>","PeriodicalId":18791,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Cancer Therapeutics","volume":" ","pages":"1555-1567"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141469558","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent form of programmed cell death induced by lipid peroxidation and controlled by Hippo signaling. We hypothesized that overcoming ferroptosis resistance is an attractive strategy because OCCC acquires oxidative stress resistance during its development and exhibits chemoresistant features indicative of ferroptosis resistance. This study aimed to determine whether OCCC is resistant to ferroptosis and clarify the mechanism underlying resistance. Unlike ovarian high-grade serous carcinoma cells, OCCC cells were exposed to oxidative stress. However, OCCC cells remained unaffected by lipid peroxidation. Cell viability assays revealed that OCCC cells exhibited resistance to the ferroptosis inducer erastin. Moreover, Samroc analysis showed that the Hippo signaling pathway was enriched in OCCC cell lines and clinical samples. Furthermore, patients with low expression of nuclear yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) exhibited a significantly poor prognosis of OCCC. Moreover, YAP1 activation enhanced ferroptosis in OCCC cell lines. Furthermore, suppression of zinc finger DHHC-type palmitoyltransferase 7 (ZDHHC7) enhanced ferroptosis by activating YAP1 in OCCC cell lines. Mouse xenograft models demonstrated that ZDHHC7 inhibition suppressed tumor growth via YAP1 activation by erastin treatment. In conclusion, YAP1 activation regulated by ZDHHC7 enhanced ferroptosis in OCCC.

We developed M1069-a highly selective dual antagonist of the A2A and A2B AR. In assays with primary human and murine immune cells, M1069 rescued IL2 production from T cells (A2A dependent) and inhibited VEGF production by myeloid cells (A2B dependent) in adenosine-high settings. M1069 also demonstrated superior suppression of the secretion of protumorigenic cytokines CXCL1, CXCL5, and rescue of IL12 secretion from adenosine-differentiated dendritic cells compared to an A2A-selective antagonist (A2Ai). In a one-way mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) assay, adenosine-differentiated human and murine dendritic cells treated with M1069 demonstrated superior T-cell stimulatory activity compared to dendritic cells differentiated in presence of A2Ai.

More than 80% of patient-derived xenograft tissues of SCLC expressed FucGM1, whereas only three normal human tissues: pituitary, thymus, and skin expressed low and focal FucGM1. A FucGM1-targeting TCB (SC134-TCB), based on the Fc-silenced humanized SC134 antibody, exhibited nanomolar efficiency in FucGM1 glycolipid and SCLC cell surface binding. SC134-TCB showed potent ex vivo killing of SCLC cell lines with donor-dependent EC50 ranging from 7.2 pmol/L up to 211.0 pmol/L, effectively activating T cells, with picomolar efficiency, coinciding with target-dependent cytokine production such as IFNγ, IL2, and TNFα and robust proliferation of both CD4 and CD8 T cells. The ex vivo SC134-TCB tumor controlling activity translated into an effective in vivo anti-DMS79 tumor therapy, resulting in 100% tumor-free survival in a human peripheral blood mononuclear cell admixed setting and 40% overall survival (55% tumor growth inhibition) with systemically administered human peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Combination treatment with atezolizumab further enhanced survival and tumor growth inhibition (up to 73%).

In this study, we introduce Tras-DXd-MTL1, an innovative HER2 targeting ADC that integrates the topoisomerase inhibitor DXd and a toll like receptor 7 (TLR7) agonist MTT5, linked to trastuzumab via a GGFG tetrapeptide linker. Mechanistically, Tras-DXd-MTL1 retains the DNA-damaging and cell-killing properties of topoisomerase inhibitors while simultaneously enhancing the immune response within the tumor microenvironment. This is achieved by promoting immune cell infiltration and activating dendritic cells and CD8+T cells via MTT5. In vivo evaluation of Tras-DXd-MTL1's antitumor potency revealed a notably superior performance compared with the T-DXd (Tras-DXd) or Tras-MTL1 in immunocompetent mice with trastuzumab-resistant EMT6-HER2 tumor and immunodeficient mice with JIMT-1 tumor. This improved efficacy is primarily attributed to its dual functions of immune stimulation and cytotoxicity.
