ABSTRACT
Radiopharmaceutical therapies (RPT) activate a type I interferon (IFN1) response in tumor cells. We hypothesized that the timing and amplitude of this response varies by isotope. We compared equal doses delivered by 90 Y, 177 Lu, and 225 Ac in vitro as unbound radionuclides and in vivo when chelated to NM600, a tumor-selective alkylphosphocholine. Response in murine MOC2 head and neck carcinoma and B78 melanoma was evaluated by qPCR and flow cytometry. Therapeutic response to 225 Ac-NM600+anti-CTLA4+anti-PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI) was evaluated in wild-type and stimulator of interferon genes knockout (STING KO) B78. The timing and magnitude of IFN1 response correlated with radionuclide half-life and linear energy transfer. CD8 + /Treg ratios increased in tumors 7 days after 90 Y- and 177 Lu-NM600 and day 21 after 225 Ac-NM600. 225 Ac-NM600+ICI improved survival in mice with WT but not with STING KO tumors, relative to monotherapies. Immunomodulatory effects of RPT vary with radioisotope and promote STING-dependent enhanced response to ICIs in murine models. Teaser This study describes the time course and nature of tumor immunomodulation by radiopharmaceuticals with differing physical properties.
