Abstract:
:Despite the promise of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy against cancer, challenges associated with low objective response rates and severe systemic side effects still remain and limit its clinical applications. Here, we described a cold atmospheric plasma (CAP)-mediated ICB therapy integrated with microneedles (MN) for the transdermal delivery of ICB. We found that a hollow-structured MN (hMN) patch facilitates the transportation of CAP through the skin, causing tumor cell death. The release of tumor-associated antigens then promotes the maturation of dendritic cells in the tumor-draining lymph nodes, subsequently initiating T cell-mediated immune response. Anti-programmed death-ligand 1 antibody (aPDL1), an immune checkpoint inhibitor, released from the MN patch further augments the antitumor immunity. Our findings indicate that the proposed transdermal combined CAP and ICB therapy can inhibit the tumor growth of both primary tumors and distant tumors, prolonging the survival of tumor-bearing mice.
