Thomsen-Friedenreich antigen (TF-Ag) is expressed in many carcinomas, including those of the breast, colon, bladder, and prostate. TF-Ag is important in adhesion and metastasis and as a potential immunotherapy target. We hypothesized that passive transfer of JAA-F11, an anti-TF-Ag monoclonal antibody, may create a survival advantage for patients with TF-Ag-expressing tumors by cytotoxicity, blocking of tumor cell adhesion, and inhibition of metastasis. This was tested using in vitro models of tumor cell growth; cytotoxicity assays; in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo models of cancer metastasis; and, finally, in vivo effects in mice with metastatic breast cancer. Unlike some anti-TF-Ag antibodies, JAA-F11 did not enhance breast carcinoma cell growth. JAA-F11 did not induce the killing of 4T1 tumor cells through complement-dependent cytotoxicity or apoptotic mechanisms. However, JAA-F11 blocked the stages of metastasis that involve the adhesion of human breast carcinoma cells to human endothelial cells ( human umbilical vein endothelial cells and human bone marrow endothelial cells 60) in in vitro static adhesion models, in a perfused ex vivo model, and in murine lung vasculature in an in vivo metastatic deposit formation assay. JAA-F11 significantly extended the median survival time of animals bearing metastatic 4T1 breast tumors and caused a > 50% inhibition of lung metastasis.
