Effective cancer immunotherapy depends on the robust activation of tumor-specific antigen-presenting cells (APC). Immune agonists encapsulated within nanoparticles (NP) can be delivered to tumor sites to generate powerful antitumor immune responses with minimal off-target dissemination. Systemic delivery enables widespread access to the microvasculature and draining to the APC-rich perivasculature. We developed an immuno-nanoparticle (immuno-NP) coloaded with cyclic diguanylate monophosphate, an agonist of the stimulator of interferon genes pathway, and monophosphoryl lipid A, and a Toll-like receptor 4 agonist, which synergize to produce high levels of type I IFNβ. Using a murine model of metastatic triple-negative breast cancer, systemic delivery of these immuno-NPs resulted in significant therapeutic outcomes due to extensive upregulation of APCs and natural killer cells in the blood and tumor compared with control treatments. These results indicate that NPs can facilitate systemic delivery of multiple immune-potentiating cargoes for effective APC-driven local and systemic antitumor immunity. SIGNIFICANCE: Systemic administration of an immuno-nanoparticle in a murine breast tumor model drives a robust tumor site-specific APC response by delivering two synergistic immune-potentiating molecules, highlighting the potential of nanoparticles for immunotherapy.
有效的癌症免疫疗法取决于肿瘤特异性抗原呈递细胞(APC)的强烈激活。免疫激动剂封装在纳米颗粒(NP)中,可以递送到肿瘤部位,以产生强大的抗肿瘤免疫反应,而最小化脱靶扩散。全身给药使广泛接触微血管和引流到富含 APC 的血管周腔成为可能。我们开发了一种免疫纳米颗粒(immuno-NP),它共载有环二鸟苷酸单磷酸,一种干扰素基因刺激物途径的激动剂,以及单磷酰脂质 A 和 Toll 样受体 4 激动剂,它们协同作用产生高水平的 I 型 IFNβ。在转移性三阴性乳腺癌的小鼠模型中,与对照治疗相比,这些免疫纳米颗粒的全身给药导致 APC 和自然杀伤细胞在血液和肿瘤中的广泛上调,从而产生显著的治疗效果。这些结果表明,纳米颗粒可以促进多种免疫增强货物的全身递送,以实现有效的 APC 驱动的局部和全身抗肿瘤免疫。意义:在小鼠乳腺肿瘤模型中,全身给予免疫纳米颗粒通过递送两种协同的免疫增强分子,驱动强烈的肿瘤部位特异性 APC 反应,突出了纳米颗粒在免疫治疗中的潜力。
