Development of a MUC16-Targeted Near-Infrared Fluorescent Antibody Conjugate for Intraoperative Imaging of Pancreatic Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Surgical resection is currently the only potentially curative option for patients with pancreatic cancer. However, the 5-year survival rate after resection is only 25%, due in part to high rates of R1 resections, in which cells are left behind at the surgical margin, resulting in disease recurrence. Fluorescence-guided surgery (FGS) has emerged as a method to reduce incomplete resections and improve intraoperative assessment of cancer. Mucin-16 (MUC16), a protein biomarker highly overexpressed in pancreatic cancer, is a potential target for FGS. In this study, we developed a fluorescent MUC16-targeted antibody probe, AR9.6-IRDye800, for image-guided resection of pancreatic cancer. We demonstrated the efficacy of this probe to bind human pancreatic cancer cell lines in vitro and in vivo In an orthotopic xenograft model, AR9.6-IRDye800 exhibited superior fluorescence enhancement of tumors and lower signal in critical background organs in comparison to a nonspecific IgG control. The results of this study suggest that AR9.6-IRDye800 has potential for success as a probe for FGS in pancreatic cancer patients, and MUC16 is a feasible target for intraoperative imaging.

Project description:BACKGROUND:To meet clinical needs, fluorescence-guided surgery has emerged as a new technique that guides surgeons in the resection of cancerous tissue by highlighting tumour lesions during surgery. We aimed to evaluate the novel ovarian cancer-specific antibody fluorescent probe COC183B2-800 (COC183B2 conjugated with IRDye800CW) in tumour-specific imaging to determine if it can help surgeons remove malignant lesions under fluorescence guidance. METHODS:The expression of OC183B2 antigen in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) tissues and cell lines was determined using immunohistochemistry (IHC). Western blotting was used to verify the expression of OC183B2 in SKOV3-Luc tumours. Antibodies against OC183B2 and mouse immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) were conjugated with IRDye800CW to develop the antibody fluorescent probes COC183B2-800 and IgG-800 (immunoglobulin G1 conjugated with IRDye800CW). A subcutaneous mouse tumour model of SKOV3-Luc cells was constructed. Bioluminescent imaging (BLI) was conducted to detect the tumour location. Near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging was performed after the mice were injected with imaging agents. The mice were sacrificed 96?h postinjection, and the biodistribution assays were performed using NIRF imaging. RESULTS:In 69 EOC patients, the total positive rate of OC183B2 in EOC tissues was 89.9% (62/69). Expression of the OC183B2 antigen was positive in SKOV3-Luc, 3AO, ES2 and A2780 cells. The OC183B2 antigen could be detected in SKOV3-Luc tumours. NIRF imaging of the COC183B2-800 probe at different doses showed a high fluorescent signal at the tumour location that was in line with the site detected by bioluminescent imaging. The tumour background ratio (TBR) was significantly higher in the COC183B2-800 group than in the IgG-800, IRDye800CW and PBS groups. The fluorescent probe COC183B2-800 is metabolized mainly through the liver and does not accumulate in other organs. CONCLUSIONS:COC183B2-800 shows effective tumour-specific targeting of EOC and is a promising diagnostic and therapeutic tool for fluorescence-guided surgery.
