    Abstract: Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have demonstrated promising activity and tolerability profiles in oncology clinical trials, including for Hodgkin lymphoma (brentuzumab vedotin) and breast cancer (trastuzumab-DM1), motivating the development of new ADCs targeting antigens in other prevalent cancers. An immunohistochemical survey of expression of the novel tumor antigen AGS-5 revealed strong staining in 90% of pancreatic cancer specimens tested. Importantly, this staining was largely uniform, with essentially all transformed cells demonstrating membranous staining. This observation along with the observation of equally abundant expression of AGS-5 in prostate and other cancers motivated the development of ASG-5ME, an ADC targeting AGS-5. The ADC is comprised of a fully human IgG2 monoclonal antibody conjugated to the potent tubulin-binding drug monomethylauristatin E, conjugated with an average of 3.7 drug molecules per antibody. Conjugation and analysis of this IgG2 ADC will be discussed. The resulting conjugate demonstrated antigen-dependent internalization and in vitro cytotoxicity at sub-saturating ADC concentrations, as well as potent in vivo antitumor activity in patient-derived xenograft models of pancreatic cancer. ASG-5ME has a long (12 day) T1/2 in mice. Taken together, these results support the clinical evaluation of ASG-5ME for treatment of pancreatic cancer Citation Format: {Authors}. {Abstract title} [abstract].

    Abstract: Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT), a method based on the fission of boron-10 upon neutron irradiation, has emerged as an attractive option for radiation therapy. To date, the main drugs used in BNCT are 4-boronophenylalanine (BPA) and sodium borocaptate (BSH). While BPA has been extensively tested in clinical trials, the use of BSH has been limited, mainly due to its poor cellular uptake. Here, we describe a novel type of mesoporous silica-based nanoparticle containing BSH covalently attached to a nanocarrier. Synthesis and characterization of these nanoparticles (BSH-BPMO) are presented. The synthetic strategy involves a click thiol–ene reaction with the boron cluster, providing hydrolytically stable linkage with the BSH in four steps. The BSH-BPMO nanoparticles were efficiently taken up into cancer cells and accumulated in the perinuclear region. Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) measurements of boron uptake in cells highlight the important role of the nanocarrier in the enhancement of boron internalization. BSH-BPMO nanoparticles were also taken up and distributed throughout tumour spheroids. BNCT efficacy was examined by the neutron exposure of the tumour spheroids. BSH-BPMO loaded spheroids were completely destroyed upon neutron irradiation. In contrast, neutron irradiation of tumour spheroids loaded with BSH or BPA resulted in significantly less spheroid shrinkage. The significant difference in BNCT efficacy of the BSH-BPMO was correlated with the improved boron uptake via the nanocarrier. Overall, these results demonstrate the critical role of the nanocarrier in BSH internalization and the enhanced BNCT efficacy of the BSH-BPMO compared with BSH and BPA, two drugs used in BNCT clinical trials.

    Abstract: The c-Jun amino-terminal kinase (JNK) is a member of the stress-activated group of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases that are implicated in the control of cell growth. A murine cytoplasmic protein that binds specifically to JNK [the JNK interacting protein-1 (JIP-1)] was characterized and cloned. JIP-1 caused cytoplasmic retention of JNK and inhibition of JNK-regulated gene expression. In addition, JIP-1 suppressed the effects of the JNK signaling pathway on cellular proliferation, including transformation by the Bcr-Abl oncogene. This analysis identifies JIP-1 as a specific inhibitor of the JNK signal transduction pathway and establishes protein targeting as a mechanism that regulates signaling by stress-activated MAP kinases.

    Abstract: Prostate stem cell antigen (PSCA) is a cysteine-rich cell surface glycoprotein expressed in about 50% of pancreatic and prostate cancers. AGS-PSCA is a hybridoma-derived fully human IgG1κ monoclonal antibody (MAb) targeting PSCA previously reported to have anti-tumor efficacy in prostate and pancreatic tumor models. AGS-1C4D4 is a CHO-derived antibody generated from the same gene as AGS-PSCA, with similar specificity and binding affinity to PSCA (Kd = 2.0 × 10-10M). Since hybridoma and CHO-derived MAbs displayed disparate glycosylation patterns by mass spectroscopy, we further evaluated their MAb effector functions. AGS-1C4D4 was found to have more potent ADCC activity in vitro on PSCA-expressing pancreatic cell lines, HPAC and Panc0203, using human PBMCs from multiple normal donors. However, both MAbs were similarly effective in mediating CDC on PSCA-expressing recombinant B300.19 cells. Deglycosylation greatly reduced the relative ADCC and CDC activities of both MAbs compared to their intact versions. Additional studies to elucidate the role of the effector functions of AGS-1C4D4 are currently being conducted in vivo using intact and deglycosylated MAbs and will be presented. While neither intact antibody had any direct cytotoxic activity on HPAC cells in vitro, both MAbs significantly inhibited tumor formation, local invasion and metastases to distant sites in orthotopic HPAC xenograft tumor models in vivo. In addition, AGS-1C4D4 significantly inhibited the growth and metastasis of established orthotopic HPAC tumors in combination with Gemcitabine. AGS-1C4D4 is currently being evaluated in a Phase 2 clinical study for pancreatic cancer in combination with Gemcitabine. Citation Format: {Authors}. {Abstract title} [abstract].

    Abstract: Discoidin domain receptor 1 (DDR1) is a member of the receptor tyrosine kinase family. It is activated by binding to its ligand, collagen and plays a key role in cell survival, adhesion, migration and invasion. Although DDR1 is present in several normal tissues, it is overexpressed in various cancer types, including lung, colon, ovary and breast tumors as well as in gliomas, where it is known to be associated with poor prognosis. The significance of DDR1 in cancer was illustrated using shRNA silencing, which impaired tumor cell growth, both in vitro and in vivo. Using microarray analysis of tumor cells with DDR1 knockdown, we identified an upregulation of TGFBI expression, which was subsequently confirmed at the protein level. TGFBI is a TGFβ induced extracellular matrix protein secreted by tumor cells and has been reported to act as either a tumor promoter or suppressor, depending upon tumor type. Exogenous addition of recombinant TGFBI to tumor cells inhibited clonogenic growth, recapitulating shRNA data. When grown in vivo as xenografts, the DDR1 knockdown cell lines demonstrated a similar phenotype of reduced growth and tumors exhibited an increase in TGFBI protein levels. In summary, our data suggests that DDR1 expression levels influences tumor growth in part through modulation of TGFBI expression. Ongoing studies will help to understand how DDR1 and TGFBI are linked and contribute to tumorigenesis. Citation Format: {Authors}. {Abstract title} [abstract].

    Abstract: Nectin-4 is a type I transmembrane antigen identified by Agensys to be highly expressed at the RNA level in a significant number of bladder and breast cancer specimens. Analysis of protein expression carried out in an extensive panel of tumor specimens by immunohistochemistry confirmed strong to moderate expression levels of Nectin-4 in bladder, breast and pancreatic cancers (40-60%). A subset of lung and ovarian cancers (up to 30%) also showed significant expression levels of this protein. We have generated an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) targeting Nectin-4, AGS-22M6E. The highly potent microtubule disrupting drug monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE) was conjugated via valine-citrulline cleavable linker to a fully human IgG1k antibody specific for Nectin-4. AGS-22M6E was characterized for binding affinity, species crossreactivity and cytotoxicity in vitro. AGS-22M6E binds to cell surface Nectin-4 with high affinity and crossreacts with Nectin-4 orthologs of cynomolgus monkey, rat and murine origin. Upon binding to its target on the cell surface AGS-22M6E is internalized and induces cell death in vitro in a dose dependent manner. In vivo efficacy of AGS-22M6E was tested in SCID mice on xenograft models of breast, bladder, pancreatic and lung cancers in subcutaneous and orthotopic modalities. Treatment of well established tumor xenografts with the ADC resulted in significant growth inhibition or complete eradication of tumors in various models covering multiple cancer indications. Pharmacokinetics of AGS-22M6E in non-tumor bearing mice was also evaluated and will be discussed. Overall, these data validate AGS-22M6E as an attractive therapeutic drug candidate for multiple solid tumor indications and support further clinical investigation.
