Lysis of Small Cell Carcinoma of the Lung (SCCL) Cells by Cytokine-Activated Monocytes and Natural Killer Cells in the Presence of Bispecific Immunoconjugates Containing a Gastrin-Releasing Peptide (GRP) Analog or a GRP Antagonist

Abstract: Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States. We have developed a new immunotherapeutic approach to the treatment of small cell carcinoma of the lung (SCCL) by targeting the gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRP-R) expressed on the surface of these cells. Bispecific immunoconjugates were constructed by chemical fusion of a GRP analog or a GRP antagonist with monoclonal antibodies directed to the cytotoxic trigger molecules Fc gamma RI and Fc gamma RIII on various immune effecto… Show more

“…The general approach of coupling a small high-affinity ligand to antibodies against immune effector cells (Chen et al, 1995;Kranz et al, 1995) should be widely applicable to any type of cancer in which a high-affinity ligand against a tumor-associated molecule can be identified. The folate/antibody approach may work more effectively against tumors such as ovarian carcinomas that do not have the complication of the blood-brain barrier and that may be more accessible by T cells.…”

“…The former include coupling Bn analogues to iron oxide nanoparticles for enhancing sensitivity of magnetic resonance imaging [125,204], to various fluorescent molecules which can be used for in vivo imaging [41,173,187,222] or to nanorods containing a photoacoustic imaging moieties [108]. Potentially cytotoxic compounds include coupling Bn analogues to chemotherapeutic agents [camptothecin [88,227,232], doxorubicin [240,241,258], paclitaxel [303,304]]; marine toxins [230]; to diphtheria toxin [360]; to mitochondria-disruptive peptides [40]; to agents that activate polyclonal T lymphocytes [398]; coupled to other immunotherapeutic agents that lead to cell death [48,49]; to photosensitizers [73,73,236,282] and to siRNA or adenoviral delivery vectors[116,242,308,374,375,375]. In addition BnR agonists have been one of the main targeting agents coupled to various nanoparticle carriers to assess delivery [44,342] or for targeted delivery of various cytotoxic agents including chemotherapeutic agents [docataxel [157], doxorubicin [1,3]]; radiolabeled analogues [140]; or gold nanoparticles [45].…”

“…In 1995 Chen et al published a paper [153,154] using Bn analog ([Lys 3 ]Bn, (Table 2) [Analog #10, Table 12] coupled to an antibody anti-FcγRI as an immunotherapeutic approach to the treatment of SCLC. This bispecific immunoconjugate should bind by one side to the GRP receptor expressed in SCLC cells and by the other to the FcγRI expressed in cells such as activated monocytes or neutrophils and produce lysis of the cancer cells.…”
