Novel Peptide NIRF Optical Surgical Navigation Agents for HNSCC.


ABSTRACT: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) survival rates have not improved in a decade, with a 63% 5-year recurrence rate after surgery, making HNSCC a compelling indication for optical surgical navigation (OSN). A promising peptide, HN1, targeted and internalized in human HNSCC cells in multiple laboratories, but was slow (24 h) to accumulate. We modified HN1 and explored structural variables to improve the uptake kinetics and create IRdye800 adducts useful for OSN. Eleven new molecules were synthesized and characterized chemically, in human HNSCC cells (Cal 27), and in HNSCC xenograft mice. Cal 27 flank xenografts in Balb/c nude mice were imaged for 3-48 h after 40 nmol intravenous doses of IR800-labeled molecules. Cell uptake kinetics in the 1-2 h window incubated at 1-10 μM were independent of the dye label (FITC, Cy5, or IR800), but increased markedly with additional N-terminal lipophilic substitution, and after resequencing the peptide to separate polar amino acids and move the lysine-dye more centrally. Microscopy confirmed the strong Cal 27 cell binding and demonstrated primarily cytosolic and membrane localization of the fastest peptide, 4Iphf-HN17. 4Iph-HN17-IR800 showed 26-fold greater rate of uptake in cells than HN1-IR800, and far stronger OSN imaging intensity and tumor to background contrast in mice, suggesting that the new peptide is a promising candidate for OSN of HNSCC.
