Elaborately engineering of a dual-drug co-assembled nanomedicine for boosting immunogenic cell death and enhancing triple negative breast cancer treatment.

ABSTRACT: Pure drug-assembled nanosystem provides a facile and promising solution for simple manufacturing of nanodrugs, whereas a lack of understanding of the underlying assembly mechanism and the inefficient and uncontrollable drug release still limits the development and application of this technology. Here, a simple and practical nanoassembly of DOX and DiR is constructed on basis of their co-assembly characteristics. Multiple interaction forces are found to drive the co-assembly process. Moreover, DOX release from the nanoassembly can be well controlled by the acidic tumor microenvironment and laser irradiation, resulting in favorable delivery efficiency of DiR and DOX in vitro and in vivo. As expected, the nanoassembly with high therapeutic safety completely eradicated the mice triple negative breast cancer cells (4T1) on BALB/c mice, owing to synergistic chemo-photothermal therapy. More interestingly, DiR and DOX synergistically induce immunogenic cell death (ICD) of tumor cells after treatment, enabling the mice to acquire immune memory against tumor growth and recurrence. Such a facile nanoassembly technique provides a novel multimodal cancer treatment platform of chemotherapy/phototherapy/immunotherapy.

Project description:BackgroundInsufficient understanding of the pathogenesis and tumor immunology of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) has limited the development of immunotherapy. The importance of tumor microenvironment (TME) in immunotyping, prognostic assessment and immunotherapy efficacy of cancer has been emphasized, however, potential immunogenic cell death (ICD) related genes function in TME of TNBC has been rarely investigated.AimsTo initially explore the role and related mechanisms of ICD in TNBC, especially the role played in the TME of TNBC, and to identify different relevant subtypes based on ICD, and then develop an ICD-related risk score to predict each TNBC patient TME status, prognosis and immunotherapy response.Methods and resultsIn this study, we identified distinct ICD-related modification patterns based on 158 TNBC cases in the TCGA-TNBC cohort. We then investigated the possible correlation between ICD-related modification patterns and TME cell infiltration characteristics in TNBC. By using univariate Cox and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis, we created a risk scoring system (ICD score) to quantifiably evaluate the impact of ICD-related modification patterns in individual TNBC patient. Two different ICD-related modification patterns were found with significant differences in immune infiltration. Lower ICD score was correlated with higher immune infiltration, tumor mutational burden and significantly enriched in immune-related pathways, indicating a strong ability to activate immune response, which might account for relatively favorable prognosis of TNBC patients and could serve as a predictor to select suitable candidates for immunotherapy. We used two independent cohorts, GSE58812 cohort and Metabric cohort to validate prognosis and immunohistochemistry for preliminary in vitro validation.ConclusionThis study evidenced that the ICD-related modification patterns might exert pivotal roles in the immune infiltration landscape of TNBC and ICD score might act as potential predictors of prognostic assessment and immunotherapy response. This research provides unique insights for individualize immune treatment strategies and promising immunotherapy candidates screening.
