Magnetic antibody-linked nanomatchmakers for therapeutic cell targeting.

ABSTRACT: Stem cell transplantation is a promising strategy for therapeutic cardiac regeneration, but current therapies are limited by inefficient interaction between potentially beneficial cells (either exogenously transplanted or endogenously recruited) and the injured tissue. Here we apply targeted nanomedicine to achieve in vivo cell-mediated tissue repair, imaging and localized enrichment without cellular transplantation. Iron nanoparticles are conjugated with two types of antibodies (one against antigens on therapeutic cells and the other directed at injured cells) to produce magnetic bifunctional cell engager (MagBICE). The antibodies link the therapeutic cells to the injured cells, whereas the iron core of MagBICE enables physical enrichment and imaging. We treat acute myocardial infarction by targeting exogenous bone marrow-derived stem cells (expressing CD45) or endogenous CD34-positive cells to injured cardiomyocytes (expressing myosin light chain. Targeting can be further enhanced by magnetic attraction, leading to augmented functional benefits. MagBICE represents a generalizable platform technology for regenerative medicine.

Project description:BackgroundBoth ganglioside GD2-targeted immunotherapy and antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have demonstrated clinical success as solid tumor therapies in recent years, yet no research has been carried out to develop anti-GD2 ADCs against solid tumors. This is the first study to analyze cytotoxic activity of clinically relevant anti-GD2 ADCs in a wide panel of cell lines with varying GD2 expression and their effects in mouse models of GD2-positive solid cancer.MethodsAnti-GD2 ADCs were generated based on the GD2-specific antibody ch14.18 approved for the treatment of neuroblastoma and commonly used drugs monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE) or F (MMAF), conjugated via a cleavable linker by thiol-maleimide chemistry. The antibody was produced in a mammalian expression system, and its specific binding to GD2 was analyzed. Antigen-binding properties and biodistribution of the ADCs in mice were studied in comparison with the parent antibody. Cytotoxic effects of the ADCs were evaluated in a wide panel of GD2-positive and GD2-negative tumor cell lines of neuroblastoma, glioma, sarcoma, melanoma, and breast cancer. Their antitumor effects were studied in the B78-D14 melanoma and EL-4 lymphoma syngeneic mouse models.ResultsThe ch14.18-MMAE and ch14.18-MMAF ADCs retained antigen-binding properties of the parent antibody. Direct dependence of the cytotoxic effect on the level of GD2 expression was observed in cell lines of different origin for both ADCs, with IC50 below 1 nM for the cells with high GD2 expression and no cytotoxic effect for GD2-negative cells. Within the analyzed cell lines, ch14.18-MMAF was more effective in the cells overexpressing GD2, while ch14.18-MMAE had more prominent activity in the cells expressing low GD2 levels. The ADCs had a similar biodistribution profile in the B78-D14 melanoma model compared with the parent antibody, reaching 7.7% ID/g in the tumor at 48 hours postinjection. The average tumor size in groups treated with ch14.18-MMAE or ch14.18-MMAF was 2.6 times and 3.8 times smaller, respectively, compared with the control group. Antitumor effects of the anti-GD2 ADCs were also confirmed in the EL-4 lymphoma model.ConclusionThese findings validate the potential of ADCs targeting ganglioside GD2 in treating multiple GD2-expressing solid tumors.
