Accelerated blood clearance phenomenon upon cross-administration of PEGylated nanocarriers in beagle dogs.

ABSTRACT: The cross-administration of nanocarriers modified by poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), named PEGylated nanocarriers, a type of combination therapy, is becoming an increasingly important method of long-term drug delivery, to decrease side effects, avoid multidrug resistance, and increase therapeutic efficacy. However, repeated injections of PEGylated nanocarriers induces the accelerated blood clearance (ABC) phenomenon, prevents long circulation, and can cause adverse effects owing to alterations in the biodistribution of the drug. Although the nature of the ABC phenomenon that is induced by repeated injections of PEGylated nanocarriers has already been studied in detail, there are few reports on the immune response elicited by the cross-administration of PEGylated nanocarriers. In this study, we investigated the ABC phenomenon induced by the intravenous cross-administration of various PEGylated nanocarriers, including PEGylated liposomes (PL), PEG micelles (PM), PEGylated solid lipid nanoparticles (PSLN), and PEGylated emulsions (PE), in beagle dogs. The results indicated that the magnitude of the immune response elicited by the cross-administration was in the following order (from the strongest to the weakest): PL, PE, PSLN, PM. It is specifically PEG in the brush structure that elicits a significant immune response, in both the induction phase and the effectuation phase. Furthermore, the present study suggests that there is a considerable difference between the effect of repeated injections and cross-administration, depending on the colloidal structure. This work is a preliminary investigation into the cross-administration of PEGylated nanocarriers, and our observations can have serious implications for the design of combination therapies that use PEGylated vectors.

Project description:Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a leading global health concern. Due to limited imaging and therapeutic options, PAD and other ischemia-related diseases may benefit from the use of long circulating nanoparticles as imaging probes and/or drug delivery vehicles. Polyethylene glycol (PEG)-conjugated nanoparticles have shown shortened circulation half-lives in vivo when injected multiple times into a single subject. This phenomenon has become known as the accelerated blood clearance (ABC) effect. The phenomenon is of concern for clinical translation of nanomaterials as it limits the passive accumulation of nanoparticles in many diseases, yet it has not been evaluated using inorganic or organic-inorganic hybrid nanoparticles. Herein, we found that the ABC phenomenon was induced by reinjection of PEGylated long circulating organic-inorganic hybrid nanoparticles, which significantly reduced the passive targeting of (64)Cu-labeled PEGylated reduced graphene oxide-iron oxide nanoparticles ((64)Cu-RGO-IONP-PEG) in a murine model of PAD. Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging was performed at 3, 10, and 17 days postsurgical induction of hindlimb ischemia. At day 3 postsurgery, the nanoparticles displayed a long circulation half-life with enhanced accumulation in the ischemic hindlimb. At days 10 and 17 postsurgery, reinjected mice displayed a short circulation half-life and lower accumulation of the nanoparticles in the ischemic hindlimb, in comparison to the naïve group. Also, reinjected mice showed significantly higher liver uptake than the naïve group, indicating that the nanoparticles experienced higher sequestration by the liver in the reinjected group. Furthermore, photoacoustic (PA) imaging and Prussian blue staining confirmed the enhanced accumulation of the nanoparticles in the liver tissue of reinjected mice. These findings validate the ABC phenomenon using long circulating organic-inorganic hybrid nanoparticles upon multiple administrations to the same animal, which may provide valuable insight into the future clinical applications of nanoparticles for imaging and treatment of PAD.

Project description:Long blood half-life is one of the advantages of antibodies over small molecule drugs. At the same time, prolonged half-life is a problem for imaging applications or in the case of antibody-induced toxicities. There is a substantial need for antidotes that can quickly clear antibodies from systemic circulation and peripheral tissues. Engineered nanoparticles exhibit intrinsic affinity for clearance organs (mainly liver and spleen). trans-Cyclooctene (TCO) and methyltetrazine (MTZ) are versatile copper-free click chemistry components that are extensively being used for in vivo bioorthogonal couplings. To test the ability of nanoparticles to eliminate antibodies, we prepared a set of click-modified, clinically relevant antidotes based on several classes of drug carriers: phospholipid-PEG micelles, bovine serum albumin (BSA), and cross-linked dextran iron oxide (CLIO) nanoparticles. Mice were injected with IRDye 800CW-labeled, click-modified IgG followed by a click-modified antidote or PBS (control), and the levels of the IgG were monitored up to 72 h postinjection. Long-circulating lipid micelles produced a spike in IgG levels at 1 h, decreased IgG levels at 24 h, and did not decrease the area under the curve (AUC) and IgG accumulation in main organs. Long-circulating BSA decreased IgG levels at 1 and 24 h, decreased the AUC, but did not significantly decrease organ accumulation. Long-circulating CLIO nanoworms increased IgG levels at 1 h, decreased IgG levels at 24 h, did not decrease the AUC, and did not decrease the organ accumulation. On the other hand, short-circulating CLIO nanoparticles decreased IgG levels at 1 and 24 h, significantly decreasing the AUC and accumulation in the main organs. Multiple doses of CLIO and BSA were not able to completely eliminate the antibody from blood, despite the click reactivity of the residual IgG, likely due to exchange of IgG between blood and tissue compartments. Pharmacokinetic modeling suggests that short antidote half-life and fast click reaction rate should result in higher IgG depletion efficiency. Short-circulating click-modified nanocarriers are the most effective antidotes for elimination of antibodies from blood. This study sets a stage for future development of antidotes based on nanomedicine.
