Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) responds poorly to conventional treatments and immunotherapy. We previously developed a binary oncolytic/helper-dependent adenovirus system (CAd) that facilitated oncolysis and expressed the immunomodulatory molecule interleukin-12 and a programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) blocking mini-antibody. Given that CAd enhanced endogenous natural killer (NK) cell anti-tumor activity in humanized mice bearing PDAC tumors and that NK cells can be adoptively transferred to patients safely in the allogeneic setting, we hypothesized that a combination of CAd and allogeneic NK cells expressing a HER2-specific chimeric antigen receptor (HER2.CAR-NK) would be an effective, entirely "off-the-shelf" treatment against PDAC. We found that CAd-derived immunomodulatory molecules prolonged HER2.CAR-NK persistence at tumor sites, allowing long-term tumor growth control and improved survival in both humanized mice and a heterogeneous PDAC patient-derived xenografts (PDX) model. This effect was based on CAd-derived transgene support that shifted HER2.CAR-NK gene expression to that resembling an NK memory-like phenotype. Additionally, this allogeneic combination therapy was tolerated in humanized mice. Together, these data suggest that CAd and HER2.CAR-NK cell combination immunotherapy may be a novel and effective option for the treatment for immunologically "cold" PDAC tumors.
胰腺导管腺癌(PDAC)对传统治疗和免疫疗法反应不佳。我们之前开发了一种二元溶瘤/辅助依赖型腺病毒系统(CAd),该系统促进溶瘤作用,并表达免疫调节分子白细胞介素-12和一种程序性死亡配体1(PD-L1)阻断微型抗体。鉴于CAd增强了携带PDAC肿瘤的人源化小鼠体内内源性自然杀伤(NK)细胞的抗肿瘤活性,并且NK细胞可以在同种异体环境中安全地过继转移给患者,我们推测CAd与表达HER2特异性嵌合抗原受体(HER2.CAR-NK)的同种异体NK细胞联合使用将是一种有效的、完全“现成可用”的抗PDAC治疗方法。我们发现,CAd衍生的免疫调节分子延长了HER2.CAR-NK在肿瘤部位的持久性,从而实现了对人源化小鼠和异质性PDAC患者来源的异种移植(PDX)模型中肿瘤生长的长期控制并改善了生存情况。这种效应基于CAd衍生的转基因支持,该支持将HER2.CAR-NK的基因表达转变为类似于NK记忆样表型的表达。此外,这种同种异体联合疗法在人源化小鼠中是可耐受的。总之,这些数据表明,CAd与HER2.CAR-NK细胞联合免疫疗法可能是治疗免疫“冷”性PDAC肿瘤的一种新型有效选择。
