Despite tumor resection being the frontline clinical care for glioblastoma (GBM) patients, nearly all preclinical immune therapy models intends to treat established GBM tumor. Characterizing cytoreductive surgery-induced immune-response combined with the administration of immune cytokines has the potential of offering a new treatment paradigm of immune therapy for GBMs. We developed syngeneic orthotopic mouse GBM models of tumor-resection and characterized the immune response of intact and resected tumors. We also created a highly secretable variant of immune cytokine IFNβ to enhance the its release from engineered mouse mesenchymal stem cells (MSC-IFNβ) and assessed whether surgical resection of intracranial GBM tumor significantly enhance the anti-tumor efficacy of targeted on-site delivery of encapsulated-MSC-IFNβ. We show that tumor debulking results in substantial reduction of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and simultaneous recruitment of CD4/CD8 T cells. This immune response significantly enhanced the anti-tumor efficacy of locally delivered encapsulated-MSC-IFNβ. IFNβ enhanced selective post-surgical infiltration of CD8 T cells and directly induced cell-cycle arrest in tumor cells resulting in increased survival of mice. Utilizing encapsulated-MSC-IFNβ in resected orthotopic tumor xenografts of patient-derived GBM, we further show that IFNβ induces cell-cycle arrest followed by apoptosis resulting in increased survival in immune-compromised mice despite their absence of an intact immune system. This study demonstrates the importance of syngeneic tumor resection models in developing cancer immunotherapies and emphasizes the translational potential of local delivery of immune-therapeutic agents in treating cancer.
