Abstract:
:Monoclonal antibodies (mabs) have considerable potential for specific cancer treatment. However, due to the antigen heterogeneity and especially the low uptake in solid tumors, mabs have not been used successfully in most clinical trials to date. This study investigates the effects of a mab-cobra venom factor (CVF) conjugate in vitro and in vivo in an orthotopic pancreatic cancer model using nude rats. CVF, a nontoxic glycoprotein from cobra venom, permanently activates the alternative pathway of complement. Coupled to a mab with tumor-binding properties, the complement activation can be targeted to the tumor tissue. We studied the activity of a mab CA19-9-CVF conjugate with the human pancreatic cancer cells PancTu I. PancTu I cells express the complement resistance factors CD46, CD55, and CD59, as we demonstrated by immunostaining, an observation that may explain the lack of cytotoxicity of the CA19-9-CVF conjugate. However, using ELISA, Western blot, and immunostaining, we showed that CA19-9-CVF activates the complement cascade, including the release of the anaphylatoxin C3a, a mediator of an inflammatory reaction. The in vivo studies of CA19-9-CVF-treated nude rats showed an increased tumor infiltration by natural killer cells and macrophages. The tumor uptake of 99Tc-labeled anti-carcinoembryonic antigen antibody was increased approximately 2-fold in rats pretreated with 70 micrograms of CA19-9-CVF, compared to animals that received an equimolar mixture of noncoupled mab and CVF. This study indicates the value of mab-CVF conjugates in adjuvant immunotherapy. mab-CVF conjugates might be useful in pretargeting approaches by increasing the uptake of a therapeutic mab.
