Abstract
Here we report a novel combination of a caspase-cleavable peptide-doxorubicin conjugate (MPD-1) with CD47-antagonizing nanocage therapeutics for the treatment of microsatellite-stable (MSS) colorectal cancer (CRC). MPD-1 (i) upregulated markers of immunogenic cell death (ICD) in tumor, and increased co-stimulatory markers on dendritic cells (DCs), (ii) enhanced CD8+ T cell infiltration and antigen presenting cell (APC) activation, and (iii) showed negligible off-target immune-related toxicity compared to free dox. Then, the CD47 antagonist FS nanocage, a SIRPα-expressing ferritin nanocage, was co-administered with MPD-1 that resulted in 95.2% (p < 0.001) tumor growth inhibition in an established CRC model. T cell-mediated elimination of tumors was also confirmed by the tumor-specific activation of T cells detected by IFNγ and tumor-free mice were observed (95%) that bared a memory response when re-challenged. The strategically developed MPD-1 is an ideal adjuvant to immunotherapy and the combination with FS nanocage triggers potent immunity against MSS CRC. In summary, we present an approach to initiate and stimulate immune-mediated eradication of cancer cells using synergistic immunogenic agents targeting the MSS CRC.
