Texture analysis of (125)I-A5B7 anti-CEA antibody SPECT differentiates metastatic colorectal cancer model phenotypes and anti-vascular therapy response.

ABSTRACT: We aimed to test the ability of texture analysis to differentiate the spatial heterogeneity of (125)I-A5B7 anti-carcinoembryonic antigen antibody distribution by nano-single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) in well-differentiated (SW1222) and poorly differentiated (LS174T) hepatic metastatic colorectal cancer models before and after combretastatin A1 di-phosphate anti-vascular therapy.Nano-SPECT imaging was performed following tail vein injection of 20 MBq (125)I-A5B7 in control CD1 nude mice (LS174T, n=3 and SW1222, n=4), and CA1P-treated mice (LS174T, n=3; SW1222, n=4) with liver metastases. Grey-level co-occurrence matrix textural features (uniformity, homogeneity, entropy and contrast) were calculated in up to three liver metastases in 14 mice from control and treatment groups.Before treatment, the LS174T metastases (n=7) were more heterogeneous than SW1222 metastases (n=12) (uniformity, P=0.028; homogeneity, P=0.01; contrast, P=0.045). Following CA1P, LS174T metastases (n=8) showed less heterogeneity than untreated LS174T controls (uniformity, P=0.021; entropy, P=0.006). Combretastatin A1 di-phosphate-treated SW1222 metastases (n=11) showed no difference in texture features compared with controls (all P>0.05).Supporting the potential for novel imaging biomarkers, texture analysis of (125)I-A5B7 SPECT shows differences in spatial heterogeneity of antibody distribution between well-differentiated (SW1222) and poorly differentiated (LS174T) liver metastases before treatment. Following anti-vascular treatment, LS174T metastases, but not SW1222 metastases, were less heterogeneous.

Fluorescent humanized anti-CEA antibody specifically labels metastatic pancreatic cancer in a patient-derived orthotopic xenograft (PDOX) mouse model.

Project description:Pancreatic cancer is a highly lethal disease in part due to incomplete tumor resection. Targeting by tumor-specific antibodies conjugated with a fluorescent label can result in selective labeling of cancer in vivo for surgical navigation. In the present study, we describe a patient-derived orthotopic xenograft model of pancreatic cancer that recapitulated the disease on a gross and microscopic level, along with physiologic clinical manifestations. We additionally show that the use of an anti-CEA antibody conjugated to the near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent dye, IRDye800CW, can selectively highlight the pancreatic cancer and its metastases in this model with a tumor-to-background ratio of 3.5 (SEM 0.9). The present results demonstrate the clinical potential of this labeling technique for fluorescence-guided surgery of pancreatic cancer.

Antibody Targeted PET Imaging of <sup>64</sup>Cu-DOTA-Anti-CEA PEGylated Lipid Nanodiscs in CEA Positive Tumors.

Project description:Lipid nanodiscs (LNDs), comprising a phospholipid bilayer encircled by two molecules of a recombinant membrane scaffold protein, can be targeted to tumors with covalently attached antibodies (Abs) or their fragments. Antibody attachment to click chemistry based PEGylated lipids on LNDs including DOTA allowed PET imaging with the positron emitter 64Cu. Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) positive tumors in CEA transgenic mice were chosen as a tumor target. Fab' fragments, that otherwise are rapidly cleared by the kidney due to their small size, were retained in circulation when conjugated to LNDs. Untargeted PET imaging of 64Cu-DOTA-LNDs revealed low tumor uptake (4-5% ID/g) in the range expected for the enhanced permeability retention (EPR) effect with high liver uptake (17-21% ID/g) indicating gut clearance. Fab' targeted LNDs showed little improvement over untargeted LNDs, but intact IgG targeted LNDs gave high tumor uptake (40% ID/g) with low liver (8% ID/g), demonstrating that tumor targeting with antibody conjugated LNDs is feasible.

Effective fluorescence-guided surgery of liver metastasis using a fluorescent anti-CEA antibody.

Project description:Delineation of adequate tumor margins is critical in oncologic surgery, particularly in resection of metastatic lesions. Surgeons are limited in visualization with bright-light surgery, but fluorescence-guided surgery (FGS) has been efficacious in helping the surgeon achieve negative margins.The present study uses FGS in a mouse model that has undergone surgical orthotopic implantation (SOI) of colorectal liver metastasis tagged with green fluorescent protein (GFP). An anti-CEA antibody conjugated to DyLight 650 was used to highlight the tumor.The fluorescent antibody clearly demarcated the lesion at deeper tissue depth compared to GFP. Fluorescence of the anti-CEA-DyLight650 showed maximal tumor-to-liver contrast at 72 hr. Fifteen mice underwent bright-light surgery (BLS) versus FGS with GFP versus FGS with anti-CEA-DyLight650. Mice that underwent FGS had a significantly smaller area of residual tumor (P < 0.001) and significantly longer overall survival (P < 0.001) and disease-free survival (P < 0.001). Within the two FGS groups, mice undergoing surgery with anti-CEA-DyLight650 improved survival compared to only GFP labeling.In the present report, we demonstrate that an anti-CEA antibody conjugated to a DyLight 650 nm dye clearly labeled colon cancer liver metastases, thereby enabling successful FGS.

Texture analysis in 177Lu SPECT phantom images: Statistical assessment of uniformity requirements using texture features.

Project description:The purpose of this study was to apply texture analysis (TA) to evaluate the uniformity of SPECT images reconstructed with the 3D Ordered Subsets Expectation Maximization (3D-OSEM) algorithm. For this purpose, a cylindrical homogeneous phantom filled with 177Lu was used and a total of 24 spherical volumes of interest (VOIs) were considered inside the phantom. The location of the VOIs was chosen in order to define two different configurations, i.e. gravity and radial configuration. The former configuration was used to investigate the uniformity of distribution of 177Lu inside the phantom, while the latter configuration was used to investigate the lack of uniformity from center towards edge of the images. For each VOI, the trend of different texture features considered as a function of 3D-OSEM updates was investigated in order to evaluate the influence of reconstruction parameters. TA was performed using CGITA software. The equality of the average texture feature trends in both spatial configurations was assumed as the null hypothesis and was tested by functional analysis of variance (fANOVA). With regard to the gravity configuration, no texture feature rejected the null hypothesis when the number of subsets increased. For the radial configuration, the statistical analysis revealed that, depending on the 3D-OSEM parameters used, a few texture features were capable of detecting the non-uniformity of 177Lu distribution inside the phantom moving from the center of the image towards its edge. Finally, cross-correlation coefficients were calculated to better identify the features that could play an important role in assessing quality assurance procedures performed on SPECT systems.

CCR6+ Th cell distribution differentiates systemic lupus erythematosus patients based on anti-dsDNA antibody status.

Project description:Background:Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) disease has been shown to be associated with the generation of multiple auto-antibodies. Among these, anti-dsDNA antibodies (anti-DNAs) are specific and play a pathogenic role in SLE. Indeed, anti-DNA+ SLE patients display a worse disease course. The generation of these pathogenic anti-DNAs has been attributed to the interaction between aberrant T helper (Th) cells and autoimmune B cells. Thus, in this study we have investigated whether CCR6+Th cells have the ability to differentiate SLE patients based on anti-DNA status, and if their distribution has any correlation with disease activity. Methods:We recruited 25 anti-DNA+ and 25 anti-DNA- treatment-naive onset SLE patients, matched for various clinical characteristics in our nested matched case-control study. CCR6+ Th cells and their additional subsets were analyzed in each patient by flow cytometry. Results:Anti-DNA+ SLE patients specifically had a higher percentage of Th cells expressing CCR6 and CXCR3. Further analysis of CCR6+ Th cell subsets showed that anti-DNA+ SLE patients had elevated proportions of Th9, Th17, Th17.1 and CCR4/CXCR3 double-negative (DN) cells. However, the proportions of CCR6- Th subsets, including Th1 and Th2 cells, did not show any association with anti-DNA status. Finally, we identified a correlation between CCR6+ Th subsets and clinical indicators, specifically in anti-DNA+ SLE patients. Conclusions:Our data indicated that CCR6+ Th cells and their subsets were elevated and correlated with disease activity in anti-DNA+ SLE patients. We speculated that CCR6+ Th cells may contribute to distinct disease severity in anti-DNA+ SLE patients.

A series of anti-CEA/anti-DOTA bispecific antibody formats evaluated for pre-targeting: comparison of tumor uptake and blood clearance.

Project description:A series of anti-tumor/anti-chelate bispecific antibody formats were developed for pre-targeted radioimmunotherapy. Based on the anti-carcinoembryonic antigen humanized hT84.66-M5A monoclonal antibody and the anti-DOTA C8.2.5 scFv antibody fragment, this cognate series of bispecific antibodies were radioiodinated to determine their tumor targeting, biodistribution and pharmacokinetic properties in a mouse xenograft tumor model. The in vivo biodistribution studies showed that all the bispecific antibodies exhibited specific high tumor uptake but the tumor targeting was approximately one-half of the parental anti-CEA mAb due to faster blood clearance. Serum stability and FcRn studies showed no apparent reason for the faster blood clearance. A dual radiolabel biodistribution study revealed that the (111)In-DOTA bispecific antibody had increased liver and spleen uptake, not seen for the (125)I-version due to metabolism and release of the radioiodine from the cells. These data suggest increased clearance of the antibody fusion formats by the mononuclear phagocyte system. Importantly, a pre-targeted study showed specific tumor uptake of (177)Lu-DOTA and a tumor : blood ratio of 199 : 1. This pre-targeted radiotherapeutic and substantial reduction in the radioactive exposure to the bone marrow should enhance the therapeutic potential of RIT.

Anti-Metastatic Activity of an Anti-EGFR Monoclonal Antibody against Metastatic Colorectal Cancer with KRAS p.G13D Mutation.

Project description:The now clinically-used anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) monoclonal antibodies have demonstrated significant efficacy only in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), with wild-type Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS). However, no effective treatments for patients with mCRC with KRAS mutated tumors have been approved yet. Therefore, a new strategy for targeting mCRC with KRAS mutated tumors is desired. In the present study, we examined the anti-tumor activities of a novel anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody, EMab-17 (mouse IgG2a, kappa), in colorectal cancer (CRC) cells with the KRAS p.G13D mutation. This antibody recognized endogenous EGRF in CRC cells with or without KRAS mutations, and showed a high sensitivity for CRC cells in flow cytometry, indicating that EMab-17 possesses a high binding affinity to the endogenous EGFR. In vitro experiments showed that EMab-17 exhibited antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity and complement-dependent cytotoxicity activities against CRC cells. In vivo analysis revealed that EMab-17 inhibited the metastases of HCT-15 and HCT-116 cells in the livers of nude mouse metastatic models, unlike the anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody EMab-51 of subtype mouse IgG1. In conclusion, EMab-17 may be useful in an antibody-based therapy against mCRC with the KRAS p.G13D mutation.

Ipilimumab: an anti-CTLA-4 antibody for metastatic melanoma.

Project description:Ipilimumab (MDX-010, Yervoy; Bristol-Myers Squibb), a fully human monoclonal antibody against CTL antigen 4 (CTLA-4), was recently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of metastatic melanoma. In both early- and late-phase trials, ipilimumab has shown consistent activity against melanoma. For example, in a randomized phase III trial that enrolled patients with previously treated metastatic disease, ipilimumab, with or without a peptide vaccine, improved overall survival: Median overall survival was 10.1 and 10.0 months in the ipilimumab and ipilimumab plus vaccine arms, respectively, versus 6.4 months in the vaccine-alone group (hazard ratio, 0.68; P ? 0.003). Serious (grade 3-5) immune-related adverse events occurred in 10% to 15% of patients. Thus, although it provides a clear survival benefit, ipilimumab administration requires careful patient monitoring and sometimes necessitates treatment with immune-suppressive therapy. Here, we review the mechanism of action, preclinical data, and multiple clinical trials that led to FDA approval of ipilimumab for metastatic melanoma.

Tumor-Specific Labeling of Pancreatic Cancer Using a Humanized Anti-CEA Antibody Conjugated to a Near-Infrared Fluorophore.

Project description:BACKGROUND/PURPOSE:Development of a humanized fluorophore-conjugated antibody that can improve contrast for fluorescence-guided oncologic surgeries. METHODS:BxPC-3-GFP pancreatic cancer cells were injected into flanks of nude mice. Fragments of subcutaneous tumors were grafted onto the pancreatic tail of recipient mice to create orthotopic xenograft models of pancreatic cancer. After tumors developed for 4 weeks, a humanized anti-carcinoembryonic antigen antibody conjugated to an 800 nm near-infrared fluorescent dye (hM5A-IR800) was injected intravenously. Mice were imaged at 6, 12, 24, 48, and 72 h after injection. RESULTS:Fluorescence imaging showed that hM5A-IR800 specifically localized to BxPC-3 human pancreatic cancer cells. The fluorescent probe localized to cell surfaces in vitro and specifically co-localized with green fluorescent protein-labeled tumors in an orthotopic pancreatic xenograft model in vivo. Serial imaging at specific time points showed peak signal intensity of the orthotopic pancreatic tumor at 48 h; this time point corresponded with a maximal tumor-to-background ratio (TBR) of 16.6 at 48 h. DISCUSSION:hM5A-IR800 was successfully able to specifically label orthotopic pancreatic tumors in situ. The longer wavelength allowed deeper tissue penetration, particularly in tumor areas covered by normal pancreatic parenchyma. The probe had expected kinetics for an antibody-fluorophore conjugate, with the peak signal intensity reached at 48 h. A clear tumor signal was observed with a TBR > 5 at all time points, with high contrast (TBR of 16.6) at 48 h. CONCLUSION:hM5A-IR800 demonstrated excellent tumor localization and a very bright signal. It is a promising agent for future clinical fluorescence-guided surgery applications.

Tumor regression and immunity in combination therapy with anti-CEA chimeric antigen receptor T cells and anti-CEA-IL2 immunocytokine.

Project description:Targeted immunotherapy of solid cancers with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells and immunocytokines are attractive options in that they both rely on the specificity of tumor-targeted antibodies. Since carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) expression in both colon and breast cancers is correlated with poor prognosis, it was chosen as a model tumor target in immunocompetent CEA transgenic (CEATg) mice. A second-generation anti-CEA CAR derived from CEA-specific antibody T84.66 was used to treat murine MC38 colon or E0771 breast carcinomas transfected with CEA. Anti-CEA CAR vs. mock transduced T cells exhibited a CEA-specific cytotoxic and IFN γ dose response to both CEA transfected cell lines vs. their CEA-negative controls. Anti-CEA CAR vs. mock transduced T cells delayed the median survival of CEA transfected s.c. MC38 or orthotopic E0771 tumor-bearing CEATg mice by 2 days. With the addition of one-day prior cyclophosphamide (CY) lymphodepletion, anti-CEA CAR T cell treatment delayed the median survival of MC38/CEA and E0771/CEA tumor-bearing CEATg mice by ten and 3 days, respectively. Since CAR T cells require IL2 for survival and expansion, anti-CEA-IL2 immunocytokine (ICK) treatment was performed post CAR T cell therapy. Single ICK treatment 1 day after CY plus anti-CEA CAR T cell therapy in the MC38/CEA model, and two ICK treatments every 3 days after CY plus anti-CEA CAR T cell therapy in the E0771/CEA model were ineffective, while four ICK treatments every 3 days after CY plus anti-CEA CAR T cell therapy completely eradicated MC38/CEA tumor growth and induced tumor immunity when the mice were re-challenged with tumor. These studies show the therapeutic potential of anti-CEA CAR T cells combined with ICK to treat CEA-positive tumors. Abbreviations: CAR: Chimeric antigen receptor, CEA: Carcinoembryonic antigen, CEACAM5, ICK: Immunocytokine, CY: Cyclophosphamide, CEATg mouse: transgenic CEA mouse, TDLN: Tumor-draining lymph node.
