RESUMO

This article presents bioconjugates combining nanoparticles (AGuIX) with nanobodies (VHH) targeting Programmed Death-Ligand 1 (PD-L1, A12 VHH) and Cluster of Differentiation 47 (CD47, A4 VHH) for active tumor targeting. AGuIX nanoparticles offer theranostic capabilities and an efficient biodistribution/pharmacokinetic profile (BD/PK), while VHH's reduced size (15 kDa) allows efficient tumor penetration. Site-selective sortagging and click chemistry were compared for bioconjugation. While both methods yielded bioconjugates with similar functionality, click chemistry demonstrated higher yield and could be used for the conjugation of various VHH. The specific targeting of AGuIX@VHH has been demonstrated in both in vitro and ex vivo settings, paving the way for combined targeted immunotherapies, radiotherapy, and cancer imaging.

RESUMO

Ovarian cancer (OC) is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy (5-y overall survival rate, 46%). OC is generally detected when it has already spread to the peritoneal cavity (peritoneal carcinomatosis). This study investigated whether gadolinium-based nanoparticles (Gd-NPs) increase the efficacy of targeted radionuclide therapy using [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-trastuzumab (an antibody against human epidermal growth factor receptor 2). Gd-NPs have radiosensitizing effects in conventional external-beam radiotherapy and have been tested in clinical phase II trials. Methods: First, the optimal activity of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-trastuzumab (10, 5, or 2.5 MBq) combined or not with 10 mg of Gd-NPs (single injection) was investigated in athymic mice bearing intraperitoneal OC cell (human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive) tumor xenografts. Next, the therapeutic efficacy and toxicity of 5 MBq of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-trastuzumab with Gd-NPs (3 administration regimens) were evaluated. NaCl, trastuzumab plus Gd-NPs, and [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-trastuzumab alone were used as controls. Biodistribution and dosimetry were determined, and Monte Carlo simulation of energy deposits was performed. Lastly, Gd-NPs' subcellular localization and uptake, and the cytotoxic effects of the combination, were investigated in 3 cancer cell lines to obtain insights into the involved mechanisms. Results: The optimal [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-trastuzumab activity when combined with Gd-NPs was 5 MBq. Moreover, compared with [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-trastuzumab alone, the strongest therapeutic efficacy (tumor mass reduction) was obtained with 2 injections of 5 mg of Gd-NPs/d (separated by 6 h) at 24 and 72 h after injection of 5 MBq of [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-trastuzumab. In vitro experiments showed that Gd-NPs colocalized with lysosomes and that their radiosensitizing effect was mediated by oxidative stress and inhibited by deferiprone, an iron chelator. Exposure of Gd-NPs to 177Lu increased the Auger electron yield but not the absorbed dose. Conclusion: Targeted radionuclide therapy can be combined with Gd-NPs to increase the therapeutic effect and reduce the injected activities. As Gd-NPs are already used in the clinic, this combination could be a new therapeutic approach for patients with ovarian peritoneal carcinomatosis.

RESUMO

Background: The introduction of magnetic resonance (MR)-guided radiation treatment planning has opened a new space for theranostic nanoparticles to reduce acute toxicity while improving local control. In this work, second-generation AGuIX® nanoparticles (AGuIX-Bi) are synthesized and validated. AGuIX-Bi are shown to maintain MR positive contrast while further amplifying the radiation dose by the replacement of some Gd3+ cations with higher Z Bi3+. These next-generation nanoparticles are based on the AGuIX® platform, which is currently being evaluated in multiple Phase II clinical trials in combination with radiotherapy. Methods: In this clinically scalable methodology, AGuIX® is used as an initial chelation platform to exchange Gd3+ for Bi3+. AGuIX-Bi nanoparticles are synthesized with three ratios of Gd/Bi, each maintaining MR contrast while further amplifying radiation dose relative to Bi3+. Safety, efficacy, and theranostic potential of the nanoparticles were evaluated in vitro and in vivo in a human non-small cell lung cancer model. Results: We demonstrated that increasing Bi3+ in the nanoparticles is associated with more DNA damage and improves in vivo efficacy with a statistically significant delay in tumor growth and 33% complete regression for the largest Bi/Gd ratio tested. The addition of Bi3+ by our synthetic method leads to nanoparticles that present slightly altered pharmacokinetics and lengthening of the period of high tumor accumulation with no observed evidence of toxicity. Conclusions: We confirmed the safety and enhanced efficacy of AGuIX-Bi with radiation therapy at the selected ratio of 30Gd/70Bi. These results provide crucial evidence towards patient translation.
