Spectral library-based glycopeptide analysis-detection of circulating galectin-3 binding protein in pancreatic cancer.

ABSTRACT: PURPOSE:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a lethal disease characterized by its late diagnosis, poor prognosis and rapid development of drug resistance. Using the data-independent acquisition (DIA) technique, the authors applied a spectral library-based proteomic approach to analyze N-glycosylated peptides in human plasma, in the context of pancreatic cancer study. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN:The authors extended the application of DIA to the quantification of N-glycosylated peptides enriched from plasma specimens from a clinically well-defined cohort that consists of patients with early stage PDAC, chronic pancreatitis and healthy subjects. RESULTS:The analytical platform was evaluated in light of its robustness for quantitative analysis of large-scale clinical specimens. The authors analysis indicated that the level of N-glycosylated peptides derived from galectin-3 binding proteins (LGALS3BP) were frequently elevated in plasma from PDAC patients, concurrent with the altered N-glycosylation of LGALS3BP observed in the tumor tissue. CONCLUSION AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE:The glycosylation form of LGALS3BP influences its function in the galectin network, which profoundly involves in cancer progression, immune response and drug resistance. As one of the major binding ligands of galectin network, discovery of site specific N-glycosylation changes of LGALS3BP in association of PDAC may provide useful clues to facilitate cancer detection or phenotype stratification.

Project description:Galectin-3 binding protein (Gal-3BP) is a glycoprotein that is overexpressed and secreted by several cancers and has been implicated as a marker of both tumor progression and poor prognosis in melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, and breast cancer. The expression of Gal-3BP by a variety of neoplasms makes it an enticing target for both diagnostics and therapeutics, including immuno-positron emission tomography (immunoPET) probes and antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). Herein, we report the development, in vitro characterization, and in vivo evaluation of a pair of Gal-3BP-targeting radioimmunoconjugates for 89Zr-immunoPET. A humanized anti-Gal-3BP antibody, 1959, and its corresponding ADC, 1959-sss/DM4 (DM4 = ravtansine), were modified with desferrioxamine (DFO) to yield DFO-1959 and DFO-1959-sss/DM4 immunoconjugates bearing 1-2 DFO/monoclonal antibody. Both DFO-modified immunoconjugates retained their affinity for Gal-3BP in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay experiments. The chelator-bearing antibodies were radiolabeled with zirconium-89 (t1/2 ≈ 3.3 d) to produce radioimmunoconjugates ─ [89Zr]Zr-DFO-1959 and [89Zr]Zr-DFO-1959-sss/DM4 ─ with high specific activity (>444 MBq/mg, >12 mCi/mg) and stability (>80% intact after 168 h in human serum at 37 °C). In mice bearing subcutaneous Gal-3BP-secreting A375-MA1 xenografts, [89Zr]Zr-DFO-1959 clearly delineated tumor tissue, reaching a maximum tumoral activity concentration (54.8 ± 15.8%ID/g) and tumor-to-background contrast (tumor-to-blood = 8.0 ± 4.6) at 120 h post-injection. The administration of [89Zr]Zr-DFO-1959 to mice bearing subcutaneous Gal-3BP-expressing melanoma patient-derived xenografts produced similarly promising results. [89Zr]Zr-DFO-1959 and [89Zr]Zr-DFO-1959-sss/DM4 exhibited nearly identical pharmacokinetic profiles in the mice bearing A375-MA1 tumors, though the latter produced higher uptake in the spleen and kidneys. Both [89Zr]Zr-DFO-1959 and [89Zr]Zr-DFO-1959-sss/DM4 effectively visualized Gal-3BP-secreting tumors in murine models of melanoma. These results suggest that both probes could play a role in the clinical imaging of Gal-3BP-expressing malignancies, particularly as companion theranostics for the identification of patients likely to respond to Gal-3BP-targeted therapeutics such as 1959-sss/DM4.
