Laser Immunotherapy in Combination with Perdurable PD-1 Blocking for the Treatment of Metastatic Tumors.
ACS Nano 2018 August 29
A convenient and feasible therapeutic strategy for malignant and metastatic tumors was constructed here by combining photothermal ablation (PTA)-based laser immunotherapy with perdurable PD-1 blockade immunotherapy. Hollow gold nanoshells (HAuNS, a photothermal agent) and AUNP12 (an anti PD-1 peptide, APP) were co-encapsulated into poly(lactic- co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) nanoparticles. Unlike monoclonal PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies, PD-1 peptide inhibitor shows lower cost and immunotoxicity but needs frequent administration due to its rapid clearance in vivo. Our data here showed that the formed HAuNS- and APP-loaded PLGA nanoparticles (AA@PN) could maintain release periods of up to 40 days for the peptide, and a single intratumoral injection of AA@PN could replace the frequent administration of free APP. After the administration of AA@PN and irradiation with a near-infrared laser at the tumor site, an excellent killing effect on the primary tumor cells was achieved by the PTA. The nanoparticles also played a vaccine-like role under the adjuvant of cytosine-phospho-guanine (CpG) oligodeoxynucleotide and generated a localized antitumor-immune response. Furthermore, sustained APP release with laser-dependent transient triggering could induce the blockage of PD-1/PD-L1 pathway to activate T cells, thus subsequently generating a systemic immune response. Our data demonstrated that the PTA combined with perdurable PD-1 blocking could efficiently eradicate the primary tumors and inhibit the growth of metastatic tumors as well as their formation. The present study provides a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of advanced cancer with metastasis and presents a valuable reference for obtaining better outcomes in clinical cancer immunotherapy.
