项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Conventional cancer treatments lack target specificity and are therefore associated with severe side effects. Highly specific, targeted cancer treatment approaches are urgently needed. We propose a novel theranostic approach that uses mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) expressing a cell surface antigen to specifically target a cytotoxic radioisotope to cancer cells. The cell surface antigen also allows monitoring targeting of MSCs with Positron Emission Tomography. We will test the hypothesis that MSCs expressing a cell surface antigen (DAbR1) can home to tumors using PET imaging with 86 Yttrium- (S)-2-(4-acrylamidobenzyl)-DOTA (86Y-AABD). Subsequently, we will label AABD with 90Y (a high energy beta-emitter) to induce local and selective radiation. Thus, we propose a novel theranostic approach in vivo. This work leverages tools and reagents developed by UCLA investigators; we have developed a cell membrane expressed antibody fragment called DAbR1 that can be detected with positron emission tomography (PET) using 86Y-AABD. AABD can also be labeled with 90Y for radiation treatment. The theranostic will be used as follows: i) MSCs expressing DAbR1 will be injected into tumor bearing mice. ii) Homing of optimized quantities of DAbR1-MSCs to tumors will be confirmed by 86Y-AABD PET imaging. iii) 90Y-AABD will be injected only after PET imaging has confirmed optimal homing of DAbR1-MSCs to tumors to deliver selective tumor irradiation. The team of proposed investigators has combined excellence in cancer biology, molecular biology, biochemistry, radiochemistry, and preclinical and clinical molecular imaging. In Aim 1 we will analyze the trafficking of DAbR1 expressing MSCs to tumor xenografts in mice with 86Y-AABD PET. We will determine whether genetically engineered stably expressing DAbR1 retain their normal proliferation and differentiation. We will then assess the whole-body biodistribution of DAbR1 expressing MSCs at multiple time points with 86Y-AABD small animal PET/CT in mice bearing abdominal and subcutaneous tumor xenografts. In Aim 2 we will test the therapeutic effects of 90Y-AABD following tumor infiltration of DAbR1 expressing MSCs. The ultimate objective of this proposal is the development of a novel theranostic system, to be used for highly specific cancer radiation therapy with the radiopharmaceutical 90Y-AABD.

描述（由申请人提供）：常规癌症治疗缺乏目标特异性，因此与严重的副作用有关。迫切需要高度特定的靶向癌症治疗方法。我们提出了一种新型的疗法方法，该方法使用了表达细胞表面抗原的间充质干细胞（MSC），以将细胞毒性的放射性同位素靶向癌细胞。细胞表面抗原还允许通过正电子发射断层扫描监测MSC的靶向。我们将检验以下假设：表达细胞表面抗原（DABR1）的MSC可以使用86 Yttrium-（s）-2-（4-丙烯酰胺丙烯苯基）-DOTA（86Y-AABD）的PET成像回归肿瘤。随后，我们将用90Y（高能β发射极）标记AABD，以诱导局部和选择性辐射。因此，我们在体内提出了一种新型的疗法方法。这项工作利用了UCLA研究人员开发的工具和试剂；我们已经开发了一种称为DABR1的细胞膜表达的抗体片段，该抗体片段可以使用86Y-AABD使用正电子发射断层扫描（PET）检测。 AABD也可以标记为90Y进行辐射处理。疗法将使用如下：i）表达DABR1的MSC会注入肿瘤轴承小鼠。 ii）86y-aabd PET成像将证实优化数量的DABR1-MSC将其归为肿瘤。 iii）只有在PET成像确认DABR1-MSC向肿瘤的最佳归位以提供选择性肿瘤照射之后，才能注入90y-AABD。拟议的研究人员团队在癌症生物学，分子生物学，生物化学，放射化学以及临床前和临床分子成像方面结合了卓越。在AIM 1中，我们将分析以86岁aabd PET的小鼠中表达MSC的DABR1的运输。我们将确定基因工程稳定表达DABR1是否保留其正常的增殖和分化。然后，我们将评估DABR1在多个时间点表达MSC的全身生物分布，其中具有86岁的AABD小动物PET/CT的小鼠，腹部和皮下肿瘤异种移植物。在AIM 2中，我们将测试表达MSC的DABR1肿瘤浸润后90y-AABD的治疗作用。该提案的最终目标是开发一种新型的疗法系统，用于使用放射性药物90Y-AABD进行高度特异性的癌症辐射疗法。
