H2Mab-19, an anti-human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 monoclonal antibody exerts antitumor activity in mouse oral cancer xenografts.

ABSTRACT: Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is reported to be overexpressed in breast cancers and is associated with poor clinical outcome. Trastuzumab is a humanized anti-HER2 antibody that offers significant survival benefits to patients with HER2-overexpressing breast cancer. In this study, a novel anti-HER2 monoclonal antibody (mAb), H2Mab-19 (IgG2b, kappa) was developed. Antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC), and antitumor activity of H2Mab-19 were investigated using both breast cancer and oral cancer cell lines. H2Mab-19 demonstrated cytotoxicity in BT-474 (a human breast cancer cell line) and HSC-2 or SAS (human oral cancer cell lines). H2Mab-19 also possessed both ADCC and CDC activity against BT-474, HSC-2, and SAS cell lines. In comparison to control mouse IgG, H2Mab-19 significantly reduced tumor development in BT-474, HSC-2, and SAS xenografts. Collectively, these results suggest that treatment with H2Mab-19 may be a useful therapy for patients with HER2-expressing breast and oral cancers.

Project description:CD44 is widely expressed on the surface of most tissues and all hematopoietic cells, and regulates many genes associated with cell adhesion, migration, proliferation, differentiation, and survival. CD44 has also been studied as a therapeutic target in several cancers. Previously, an anti‑CD44 monoclonal antibody (mAb), C44Mab‑5 (IgG1, kappa) was established by immunizing mice with CD44‑overexpressing Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-K1 cells. C44Mab‑5 recognized all CD44 isoforms, and showed high sensitivity for flow cytometry and immunohistochemical analysis in oral cancers. However, as the IgG1 subclass of C44Mab‑5 lacks antibody‑dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and complement‑dependent cytotoxicity (CDC), the antitumor activity of C44Mab‑5 could not be determined. In the present study, we converted the mouse IgG1 subclass antibody C44Mab‑5 into an IgG2a subclass antibody, 5‑mG2a, and further produced a defucosylated version, 5‑mG2a‑f, using FUT8‑deficient ExpiCHO‑S (BINDS‑09) cells. Defucosylation of 5‑mG2a‑f was confirmed using fucose‑binding lectins, such as AAL and PhoSL. The dissociation constants (KD) for 5‑mG2a‑f against SAS and HSC‑2 oral cancer cells were determined through flow cytometry to be 2.8x10‑10 M and 2.6x10‑9 M, respectively, indicating that 5‑mG2a‑f possesses extremely high binding affinity. Furthermore, immunohistochemical staining using 5‑mG2a‑f specifically stained the membranes of oral cancer cells. In vitro analysis demonstrated that 5‑mG2a‑f showed moderate ADCC and CDC activities against SAS and HSC‑2 oral cancer cells. In vivo analysis revealed that 5‑mG2a‑f significantly reduced tumor development in SAS and HSC‑2 xenografts in comparison to control mouse IgG, even after injection seven days post‑tumor inoculation. Collectively, these results suggest that treatment with 5‑mG2a‑f may represent a useful therapy for patients with CD44‑expressing oral cancers.
