Definitions
- the described invention generally relates to autologous cancer vaccines comprising dendritic cells contacted with at least one cancer-specific antigen.
- Immune responses are initiated by an individual's encounter with a foreign antigenic substance/immunogen, for example, an infectious agent.
- the individual rapidly responds with the production of antibody molecules specific for epitopes of the immunogen and with the expansion and differentiation of antigen- specific regulatory and effector T-lymphocytes.
- the latter include cells that produce cytokines and killer T cells capable of lysing the infected cells. Generally this initial immune response is sufficient to control and eradicate the foreign substance.
- lymphocytes which are the cells that determine the specificity of immunity, and cells that interact with lymphocytes, which play roles in the presentation of antigen and in the mediation of immunologic functions. These cells include the monocyte/macrophages, dendritic cells and closely related Langerhans' cells, natural killer (NK) cells, mast cells, basophils and other members of the myeloid lineage of cells.
- NK natural killer
- a series of specialized epithelial and stromal cells provide the anatomic environment in which immunity occurs, often by secreting critical factors that regulate growth and/or gene activation in cells of the immune system. Such cells also play direct roles in the induction and effector phases of the response. Paul, W. E., "Chapter 1 : The immune system: an introduction," Fundamental Immunology, 4th Edition, Ed. Paul, W. E., Lippicott-Raven Publishers, Philadelphia (1999).
- lymphocytes are specialized in that they are committed to respond to a limited set of structurally related antigens. This commitment, which exists before the first contact of the immune system with a given antigen, is
- lymphocytes expressed by the presence on the lymphocyte's surface membrane of receptors specific for determinants (epitopes) on the antigen.
- Each lymphocyte possesses a population of receptors, all of which have identical combining sites.
- One set, or clone, of lymphocytes differs from another clone in the structure of the combining region of its receptors and thus differs in the epitopes that it can recognize.
- B-cells B- lymphocytes
- T-cells T- lymphocytes
- B-lymphocytes are derived from hematopoietic cells of the bone marrow.
- a mature B-cell can be activated with an antigen that expresses epitopes that are recognized by its cell surface.
- Na ' ive B cells are distinguished in that they do not express the marker CD27, while antigen-specific B cells do express CD27
- the activation process may be direct, dependent on cross-linkage of membrane Ig molecules by the antigen (cross-linkage-dependent B-cell activation), or indirect, via interaction with a helper T-cell, in a process referred to as cognate help.
- Antibody responses to most protein antigens are dependent on helper T cells.
- receptor cross-linkage stimuli and cognate help synergize to yield more vigorous B-cell responses.
- Cross-linkage dependent B-cell activation requires that the antigen express multiple copies of the epitope complementary to the binding site of the cell surface receptors because each B-cell expresses Ig molecules with identical variable regions.
- Such a requirement is fulfilled by other antigens with repetitive epitopes, such as capsular polysaccharides of microorganisms or viral envelope proteins.
- Cross-linkage-dependent B-cell activation is a major protective immune response mounted against these microbes.
- Cross-linkage-dependent B-cell activation is a major protective immune response mounted against these microbes.
- Cognate help allows B-cells to mount responses against antigens that cannot cross-link receptors and, at the same time, provides costimulatory signals that rescue B cells from inactivation when they are stimulated by weak cross-linkage events.
- Cognate help is dependent on the binding of antigen by the B-cell's membrane immunoglobulin (Ig), the endocytosis of the antigen, and its fragmentation into peptides within the endosomal/lysosomal compartment of the cell. Some of the resultant peptides are loaded into a groove in a specialized set of cell surface proteins known as class II major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules.
- MHC major histocompatibility complex
- the resultant class ll/peptide complexes are expressed on the cell surface and act as ligands for the antigen-specific receptors of a set of T-cells designated as CD4+ T- cells.
- the CD4+ T-cells bear receptors on their surface specific for the B-cell's class ll/peptide complex.
- B-cell activation depends not only on the binding of the T cell through its T cell receptor (TCR), but this interaction also allows an activation ligand on the T-cell (CD40 ligand) to bind to its receptor on the B-cell (CD40) signaling B- cell activation.
- T helper cells secrete several cytokines that regulate the growth and differentiation of the stimulated B-cell by binding to cytokine receptors on the B cell. (Paul, W. E., "Chapter 1 : The immune system: an introduction,"
- the CD40 ligand is transiently expressed on activated CD4+ T helper cells, and it binds to CD40 on the antigen-specific B cells, thereby transducing a second costimulatory signal.
- the latter signal is essential for B cell growth and differentiation and for the generation of memory B cells by preventing apoptosis of germinal center B cells that have encountered antigen.
- Hyperexpression of the CD40 ligand in both B and T cells is implicated in the pathogenic autoantibody production in human SLE patients. (Desai- Mehta, A. et al., "Hyperexpression of CD40 ligand by B and T cells in human lupus and its role in pathogenic autoantibody production," J. Clin. Invest., 97(9): 2063-2073 (1996)).
- T-lymphocytes derive from precursors in hematopoietic tissue, undergo differentiation in the thymus, and are then seeded to peripheral lymphoid tissue and to the recirculating pool of lymphocytes. T-lymphocytes or T cells mediate a wide range of immunologic functions. These include the capacity to help B cells develop into antibody-producing cells, the capacity to increase the microbicidal action of monocytes/macrophages, the inhibition of certain types of immune responses, direct killing of target cells, and mobilization of the inflammatory response. These effects depend on their expression of specific cell surface molecules and the secretion of cytokines. (Paul, W. E., "Chapter 1 : The immune system: an
- T cells differ from B cells in their mechanism of antigen recognition.
- Immunoglobulin the B cell's receptor, binds to individual epitopes on soluble molecules or on particulate surfaces.
- B-cell receptors see epitopes expressed on the surface of native molecules.
- Antibody and B-cell receptors evolved to bind to and to protect against microorganisms in extracellular fluids.
- T cells recognize antigens on the surface of other cells and mediate their functions by interacting with, and altering, the behavior of these antigen-presenting cells (APCs).
- APCs antigen-presenting cells
- Immature dendritic cells are located in tissues throughout the body, including the skin, gut, and respiratory tract. When they encounter invading microbes at these sites, they endocytose the pathogens and their products, and carry them via the lymph to local lymph nodes or gut associated lymphoid organs. The encounter with a pathogen induces the dendritic cell to mature from an antigen-capturing cell to an antigen- presenting cell (APC) that can activate T cells.
- APC antigen- presenting cell
- APCs display three types of protein molecules on their surface that have a role in activating a T cell to become an effector cell: (1 ) MHC proteins, which present foreign antigen to the T cell receptor; (2) costimulatory proteins which bind to complementary receptors on the T cell surface; and (3) cell-cell adhesion molecules, which enable a T cell to bind to the antigen- presenting cell (APC) for long enough to become activated.
- (1 ) MHC proteins which present foreign antigen to the T cell receptor
- costimulatory proteins which bind to complementary receptors on the T cell surface
- cell-cell adhesion molecules which enable a T cell to bind to the antigen- presenting cell (APC) for long enough to become activated.
- T-cells are subdivided into two distinct classes based on the cell surface receptors they express.
- the majority of T cells express T cell receptors (TCR) consisting of a and ⁇ chains.
- T cells express receptors made of Y and ⁇ chains.
- TCR T cell receptors
- CD4+ T cells those that express the coreceptor molecule CD4
- CD8+ T cells those that express CD8
- CD4+ T cells are the major regulatory cells of the immune system. Their regulatory function depends both on the expression of their cell-surface molecules, such as CD40 ligand whose expression is induced when the T cells are activated, and the wide array of cytokines they secrete when activated.
- T cells also mediate effector functions, some of which are
- the cytokines can be directly toxic to target cells and can mobilize potent inflammatory mechanisms.
- T cells can develop into cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs) capable of efficiently lysing target cells that express antigens recognized by the CTLs.
- CTLs cytotoxic T-lymphocytes
- T cell receptors recognize a complex consisting of a peptide derived by proteolysis of the antigen bound to a specialized groove of a class II or class I MHC protein.
- the CD4+ T cells recognize only peptide/class II complexes while the CD8+ T cells recognize peptide/class I complexes.
- the TCR's ligand i.e., the peptide/MHC protein complex
- APCs antigen-presenting cells
- class II MHC molecules bind peptides derived from proteins that have been taken up by the APC through an endocytic process. These peptide-loaded class II molecules are then expressed on the surface of the cell, where they are available to be bound by CD4+ T cells with TCRs capable of recognizing the expressed cell surface complex.
- CD4+ T cells are specialized to react with antigens derived from extracellular sources.
- class I MHC molecules are mainly loaded with peptides derived from internally synthesized proteins, such as viral proteins. These peptides are produced from cytosolic proteins by proteolysis by the proteosome and are translocated into the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Such peptides, generally nine amino acids in length, are bound into the class I MHC molecules and are brought to the cell surface, where they can be recognized by CD8+ T cells expressing
- T cell system particularly CD8+ T cells, the ability to detect cells expressing proteins that are different from, or produced in much larger amounts than, those of cells of the remainder of the organism (e.g., vial antigens) or mutant antigens (such as active oncogene products), even if these proteins in their intact form are neither expressed on the cell surface nor secreted.
- vial antigens e.g., vial antigens
- mutant antigens such as active oncogene products
- T cells can also be classified based on their function as helper T cells; T cells involved in inducing cellular immunity; suppressor T cells; and cytotoxic T cells.
- Helper T cells are T cells that stimulate B cells to make antibody responses to proteins and other T cell-dependent antigens.
- T cell-dependent antigens are immunogens in which individual epitopes appear only once or a limited number of times such that they are unable to cross-link the membrane
- immunoglobulin (Ig) of B cells or do so inefficiently.
- B cells bind the antigen through their membrane Ig, and the complex undergoes endocytosis.
- the antigen is fragmented into peptides by proteolytic enzymes and one or more of the generated peptides are loaded into class II MHC molecules, which traffic through this vesicular compartment. The resulting
- peptide/class II MHC complex is then exported to the B-cell surface membrane. T cells with receptors specific for the peptide/class II molecular complex recognize this complex on the B-cell surface.
- B-cell activation depends both on the binding of the T cell through its TCR and on the interaction of the T-cell CD40 ligand (CD40L) with CD40 on the B cell.
- T cells do not constitutively express CD40L. Rather, CD40L expression is induced as a result of an interaction with an APC that expresses both a cognate antigen recognized by the TCR of the T cell and CD80 or CD86.
- CD80/CD86 is generally expressed by activated, but not resting, B cells so that the helper interaction involving an activated B cell and a T cell can lead to efficient antibody production.
- CD40L on T cells is dependent on their recognition of antigen on the surface of APCs that constitutively express CD80/86, such as dendritic cells.
- Such activated helper T cells can then efficiently interact with and help B cells.
- Cross-linkage of membrane Ig on the B cell even if inefficient, may synergize with the CD40L/CD40 interaction to yield vigorous B-cell activation.
- the subsequent events in the B-cell response, including proliferation, Ig secretion, and class switching (of the Ig class being expressed) either depend or are enhanced by the actions of T cell-derived cytokines.
- CD4+ T cells tend to differentiate into cells that principally secrete the cytokines IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, and IL-10 (TH2 cells) or into cells that mainly produce IL-2, IFN- ⁇ , and lymphotoxin (TH1 cells).
- TH2 cells are very effective in helping B-cells develop into antibody-producing cells
- TH1 cells are effective inducers of cellular immune responses, involving enhancement of microbicidal activity of monocytes and macrophages, and consequent increased efficiency in lysing microorganisms in intracellular vesicular compartments.
- TH1 cells Although the CD4+ T cells with the phenotype of TH2 cells (i.e., IL-4, IL-5, IL-6 and IL-10) are efficient helper cells, TH1 cells also have the capacity to be helpers. (Paul, W. E., “Chapter 1 : The immune system: an introduction,” Fundamental Immunology, 4th Edition, Ed. Paul, W. E., Lippicott-Raven Publishers, Philadelphia (1999)).
- T cells also may act to enhance the capacity of monocytes and macrophages to destroy intracellular microorganisms.
- interferon- gamma (IFN- ⁇ ) produced by helper T cells enhances several mechanisms through which mononuclear phagocytes destroy intracellular bacteria and parasitism including the generation of nitric oxide and induction of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) production.
- the THi cells are effective in enhancing the microbicidal action because they produce IFN- ⁇ .
- two of the major cytokines produced by TH2 cells IL-4 and IL-10, block these activities.
- Treg Suppressor or Regulatory T (Treg) cells
- a controlled balance between initiation and downregulation of the immune response is important to maintain immune homeostasis.
- Mechanisms that contribute to the downregulation of the immune response include both apoptosis and T cell anergy (a tolerance mechanism in which the T cells are intrinsically functionally inactivated following an antigen encounter (Scwartz, R. H., "T cell anergy,” Annu. Rev. Immunol., 21 : 305-334 (2003)).
- a third mechanism is provided by active suppression of activated T cells by suppressor or regulatory CD4+ T (Treg) cells. (Reviewed in Kronenberg, M.
- CD4+ Tregs that constitutively express the IL-2 receptor alpha (IL-2Ra) chain are a naturally occurring T cell subset that are anergic and suppressive.
- IL-2Ra IL-2 receptor alpha
- CD4+ CD25+ are a naturally occurring T cell subset that are anergic and suppressive.
- Depletion of CD4+CD25+ Tregs results in systemic autoimmune disease in mice; transfer of these Tregs prevents development of autoimmune disease.
- Human CD4+CD25+ Tregs similar to their murine counterpart, are generated in the thymus and are characterized by the ability to suppress proliferation of responder T cells through a cell-cell contact-dependent mechanism, the inability to produce IL-2, and the anergic phenotype in vitro.
- Human CD4+CD25+ T cells can be split into suppressive (CD25high) and nonsuppressive (CD25low) cells, according to the level of CD25 expression.
- a member of the forkhead family of transcription factors, FOXP3 has been shown to be expressed in murine and human CD4+CD25+ Tregs and appears to be a master gene controlling CD4+CD25+ Treg development. (Battaglia, M. et al., "Rapamycin promotes expansion of functional CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ regulator T cells of both healthy subjects and type 1 diabetic patients," J. Immunol., 177: 8338-8347 (200)).
- CTL Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes
- the CD8+ T cells that recognize peptides from proteins produced within the target cell have cytotoxic properties in that they lead to lysis of the target cells.
- the mechanism of CTL-induced lysis involves the production by the CTL of perforin, a molecule that can insert into the membrane of target cells and promote the lysis of that cell.
- Perforin-mediated lysis is enhanced by a series of enzymes produced by activated CTLs, referred to as granzymes.
- Many active CTLs also express large amounts of Fas ligand on their surface. The interaction of Fas ligand on the surface of CTL with Fas on the surface of the target cell initiates apoptosis in the target cell, leading to the death of these cells.
- CTL-mediated lysis appears to be a major mechanism for the destruction of virally infected cells.
- the elements of the immune system include cellular immunity, humoral immunity, and the complement system.
- NK cells Natural Killer (NK cells)
- NK cells belong to the lymphoid lineage. Although NK cells are not configured to recognize specific target antigens, in the way that T cells are configured to recognize target antigens, the ability of NK cells to bind to the constant region of antibodies enables NK cells to specifically kill the cells that are tagged with antibodies.
- the NK cell's recognition of the constant region of antibodies is mediated by the Fc receptor (of the NK cell) binding to the Fc portion of the antibody. This type of killing is called, antibody-dependent cell cytotoxicity (ADCC).
- ADCC antibody-dependent cell cytotoxicity
- NK cells can also kill cells independent of the mechanism of ADCC, where this killing requires expression of MHC class I to be lost or deficient in the target cell (see, e.g., Caligiuri (2008) Blood 1 12:461 -469). NK cells have been reported to mediate cytotoxicity against cancer stem cells (see, e.g., Jewett and Tseng (201 1 ) J. Cancer. 2:443-457).
- Antigen presenting cells are cells of the immune system used for presenting antigen to T cells.
- APCs include dendritic cells, monocytes, macrophages, marginal zone Kupffer cells, microglia, Langerhans cells, T cells, and B cells (see, e.g., Rodriguez-Pinto and Moreno (2005) Eur. J. Immunol. 35:1097- 1 105).
- Antigen-presenting cells display three types of protein molecules on their surface that have a role in activating a T cell to become an effector cell: (1 ) MHC proteins, which present foreign antigen to the T-cell receptor; (2) costimulatory proteins, which bind to complementary receptors on the T cell surface; and (3) cell- cell adhesion molecules, which enable a T cell to bind to the antigen-presenting cell for long enough to become activated. Alberts, B. et al., Molecular Biology of the Cell, 4 th Ed., Garland Science, NY (2002), p. 1394. The function of class I and class II MHC molecules is to bind and present antigen-derived peptides to T cells whose receptors can recognize the peptide/MHC complex that is generated. (Paul, W. E., "Chapter 1 : The immune system: an introduction," Fundamental Immunology, 4th Edition, Ed. Paul, W. E., Lippicott-Raven Publishers, Philadelphia (1999)), p. 15.
- Dendritic cells are discrete leukocyte population(s) of antigen presenting cells that initiate specific T-lymphocyte activation and proliferation. Their key properties include (1 ) the ability to take up, process, and present antigen; (2) the ability to migrate selectively through tissues; and (3) the ability to interact with, stimulate and direct T-lymphocyte responses. Hart, DNJ, Blood 90(9): 3245-87, 3245 (1997). The encounter with an antigen induces the dendritic cell to mature from an antigen-capturing cell to an antigen-presenting cell that can activate T cells.
- DCs exhibit several features necessary for the generation of T-cell- mediated antitumor immunity (Dermime S, et al., British Medical Bulletin (2002) 62: 149-162; Cella M, et al., Curr. Opin. Immunol. (1997) 9: 10-16).
- a DC acquires polypeptide antigens, where these antigens can be acquired from outside of the DC, or biosynthesized inside of the DC by an infecting organism.
- the DC processes the polypeptide, resulting in peptides of about ten amino acids in length, transfers the peptides to either MHC class I or MHC class II to form a complex, and shuttles the complex to the surface of the DC.
- dendritic cells presenting antigen to a T-cell can "activate" that T-cell, the activated T-cell might not be capable of mounting an effective immune response.
- Effective immune response by the CD8+ T-cell for example, often requires prior stimulation of the DC by one or more of a number of interactions.
- These interactions include direct contact of a CD4+ T-cell to the DC (by way of contact of the CD4+ T-cell's CD40 ligand to the DCs CD40 receptor), or direct contact of a toll-like receptor (TLR) agonist to one of the dendritic cell's toll-like receptors (TLRs).
- TLR toll-like receptor
- the described invention provides agents that, alone or in combination with a dendritic cell vaccine, can stimulate an immune response against tumor antigens; agents that can deplete T regulatory cells (Tregs); agents that can enhance activity of CD8+ T cells or CD4+ T cells, and other agents that modulate the immune system.
- T regulatory cells T regulatory cells

- CD40 agonists e.g., CD40-ligand
- cytokine interferon-gamma
- prostaglandin E2 and the like.
- TLR toll-like receptor
- the imidazoquinollines imiquimod and resiquimod are TLR7 or TLR8 agonists. Stimulation of TLR7 of plasmacytoid dendritic cells results in expression of IFN-alpha.
- CpG ODNs are TLR9 agonists.
- CpG ODNs occur in three classes, CpG-A, CpG-B, and CpG-C.
- CpG-A stimulates NK cells, owing to its IFN-alpha producing effect on plasmacytoid DCs.
- CpG-B induces IFN-alpha, and upregulates co-stimulatory markers on pDCs and B cells.
- TLR3 agonists include polyriboinosinic-polyribocytidylic acid (poly l:C), which is an analogue of viral double stranded RNA (dsRNA).
- TLR4 agonists include monophosphoryl lipid A (MPL), which is a derivative of Salmonella minnesota lipopolysaccharide, and which is used as part of a vaccine against human papillomavirus. Attenuated bacteria are used in anti-cancer therapy.
- Mycobacterium bovis stimulates TLR2, and TLR4, and TLR9.
- Listeria monocytogenes stimulates various TLRs (US 2007/0207171 of Dubensky et al, which is incorporated herein by reference, in its entirety). See also, Galluzzi et al (2012) Oncolmmunology. 1 :699- 716; Adams (2009) Immunotherapy. 1 :949-964.
- Alpha-galactosylceramide (alpha-GalCer) is also provided (Schwaab and Ernstoff (201 1 ) Therapy. 4:369-377).
- Alpha-GalCer provokes the activation of NKT cells that express certain T cell receptors (Lopez-Sagaseta et al (2012) PLoS Biol. 10:e1001412 (1 1 pages)).
- NOD nucleotide- binding and oligomerization domain
- NOD receptors include NOD1 and NOD2, which recognize distinct motifs of peptidoglycan (PGN).
- NOD agonists include N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanyl-D-isoglutamine (muramyldipeptide (MDP)), which binds to NOD 2.
- MDP muramyldipeptide
- NOD agonists include gamma-D-glutamyl-meso-diaminopimelic acid (iE-DAP), which binds to NOD1 .
- NOD agonists include desmuramylpeptides (DMP), which binds to NOD1 . See, e.g., Uehara et al (2006) J. Immunol. 177:1796-1804).
- NOD agonists are derived from fragments of peptidoglycan.
- Regs T regulatory cells
- These agents include cyclophosphamide, gemcitabine, and antibodies that deplete Tregs (see, e.g., Le and Jaffee (2012) Cancer Res. 72:3439-3444; Klages et al (2010) Cancer Res. 70:7788-7799).
- Gemcitabine reduces the immunosuppressive activity of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) (Le et al (2009) Int.
- Anti-CD25 antibodies can deplete Tregs, and have been used in the treatment of cancer (Klages et al (2010) Cancer Res. 70:7788- 7799).
- Daclizumab is an anti-CD25 antibody, which blocks binding of interleukin-2 (IL-2) to CD25, thereby blocking a signal needed for Treg maintenance.
- Some Tregs express high levels of CTLA4 (CD45RA+ Tregs).
- Anti-CTLA4 antibodies such as ipilimumab, target CTLA4. Ipilimumab is used for treating melanoma (Rech et al (2012) Immunotherapy. 4:1 103-1 105).
- Lymphocyte activation gene-3 (LAG-3) blocking agents such as anti-LAG-3 antibodies or soluble LAG-3 (e.g., LAG-3 Ig), can enhance immune response to cancers or infections.
- Anti-LAG-3 antibodies reduce the activity of Tregs (see, e.g., Huang, et al. (2004) Immunity 21 :503-513; Triebel (2003) Trends Immunol. 24:619-622).
- Antibodies are available that directly target CD8+ T cells or CD4+ T cells. These antibodies include those that target costimulatory receptors (4-1 BB, OX40 and GITR) or the blockade of co-inhibitory receptors (CTLA-4, PD-1 and PD- L1 ).
- GITR stands for glucocorticoid-induced TNFR-related protein. See, e.g., Schaer et al (2010) Curr. Opin. Investig. Drugs. 1 1 : 1378-1386). Anti-GITR can stop the suppressive function of Tregs, thus explaining anti-GITR's efficacy in anti-cancer therapy (Coe et al (2010) Cancer Immunol. Immunother. 59:1367-1377). DTA-1 is an anti-GITR antibody.
- DCs express high levels of co-stimulatory molecules.
- the trafficking of immature DCs to sites of inflammation and or mature DCs to the T- cell area of secondary lymphoid organs is regulated by the expression of different chemokines and chemokine receptors (Rubio M T, et al., International Immunology (2005) 17(12): 1561 -1572; Sallusto F and Lanzavecchia A, Immunol. Rev. (2000) 177: 134-140; Val, M, et al., J. Ex. Med. (1998) 188: 373-386; Sallusto F, et al., Eur. J. Immunol. (1999) 29: 1617-1625).
- Immature DCs express inflammatory
- chemokines monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (CCL2/MCP-1 ), macrophage inflammatory protein-1 a (CCL3/MIP-1 a), macrophage inflammatory protein-1 ⁇ (CCL4/MIP-1 ⁇ ), regulated on activation, normal T-cell expressed and secreted (CCL5/RANTES), macrophage inflammatory protein-3a (CCL20/MIP-3a)) and chemokine receptors that bind to inflammatory chemokines (chemokine (C-C motif) receptor 1 (CCR1 ), chemokine (C-C motif) receptor 2 (CCR2), chemokine (C-C motif) receptor 5 (CCR5), chemokine (C-C motif) receptor 6 (CCR6) and chemokine (C-X-C motif) receptor 1 (CXCR1 )).
- DCs down-regulate the inflammatory chemokines and their receptors and up-regulate constitutive chemokines such as interferon-y-inducible protein 10 (CXCL10/IP-10), thymus and activation regulated chemokine (CCL17/TARC), pulmonary and activation regulated chemokine
- constitutive chemokines such as interferon-y-inducible protein 10 (CXCL10/IP-10), thymus and activation regulated chemokine (CCL17/TARC), pulmonary and activation regulated chemokine
- CCL18/PARC macrophage inflammatory protein-3 (0 ⁇ _19/ ⁇ -3 ⁇ )
- macrophage derived chemokine CCL22/MDC
- C-C motif chemokine receptor chemokine 7
- CCL21 /SLC secondary lymphoid-tissue chemokine
- the co-stimulatory chemokines expressed by mature DCs function to attract T-cells and to interact with receptors on T-cells to provide a second signal required to optimally activate antigen-specific T-cells (Dermime S, et al., British Medical Bulletin (2002) 62: 149-162; June C, et al., Immunol. Today (1994) 15: 321 - 331 ).
- DCs have been shown to attract T helper 1 (Th1 ) and T helper 2 (Th2) cells, as well as na ' ive T-cells and memory T-cells.
- T helper cells express CCR4, a G-coupled protein that is the receptor for the chemokines MCP-1 , MIP-1 , RANTES,
- CD17/TARC macrophage-derived chemokine and thymus and activation regulated chemokine
- DCs are known to express high levels of CCL17/TARC, which acts on the CCR4 receptor, and thus attracts and activates downstream immune cells (Vissers J L, et al., J. Leukoc. Biol. (2001 ) 69: 785-793).
- a particular advantage of attracting or "recruiting" CD4+ T-cells is that they provide "help" for cross-priming naive T-cells by expression of CD40L.
- CD40L permits DCs to activate CD8+ cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (Schoenberger S P, et al., Nature (1998) 393: 480-483). DCs also produce heterodimer IL-12p70, which is the major determinant of their ability to promote Th1 differentiation (Rubio M T, et al., International Immunology (2005) 17(12): 1561 -1572; Hilkens C M, et al., Blood (1997) 90: 1920-1926).
- DCs also express the CD45 antigen, including the CD45 RA, CD45RO and CD45 RC isoforms. Hart, DN, Blood 90(9): 3245-87 (1997), at 3250.
- Dendritic cells occur in at least two lineages.
- the first lineage encompasses pre-DC1 , myeloid DC1 , and mature DC1 .
- the second lineage encompasses CD34+ +CD45RA- early progenitor multipotent cells,
- CD34++CD45RA+ cells CD34++CD45RA++ CD4+ IL-3Ralpha++ pro-DC2 cells
- CD4 * CD1 1 c- plasmacytoid pre-DC2 cells lymphoid human DC2 plasmacytoid- derived DC2s, and mature DC2s (see, e.g., Gilliet and Liu (2002) J. Exp. Med.
- Dendritic cells receive maturation signals in the form of cytokines and toll-like receptor ligands such as CD40 ligand, interferon-gamma and
- LPS lipopolysaccride
- maturation which induces the expression of maturation markers such as CD83 and the induction of T-cell activating cytokines such as interleukin-12 (IL-12) and
- Dendritic cells differ functionally and phenotypically depending on their stage of activation. Hart, D.N.J. "Dendritic cells: unique leukocyte populations which control the primary immune response," Blood 90: 3245-87 (1997). Immature DCs are efficient at capturing and processing antigens, O'Doherty, U.
- Mature DCs express large amounts of MHC class II molecules and lack lineage markers, such as CD14 (monocytes/macrophages;) CD3 (T-cells); CD19, CD20 and CD24 (B-cells); CD56 (NK cells); and CD66b (granulocytes).
- CD1 a is preferentially expressed on human immature myeloid DC, whereas CD83 is found on mature DCs which also express high levels of costimulatory molecules (e.g., CD80, CD86, CD40) and adhesion molecules, including CD1 1 a, CD1 1 c, CD50, CD54, CD58 and CD102 Brossart, P. et al., "Dendritic cells in cancer vaccines," Exp. Hematol. 29: 1247-55 (2001 ).
- costimulatory molecules e.g., CD80, CD86, CD40
- adhesion molecules including CD1 1 a, CD1 1 c, CD50, CD54, CD58 and CD102 Brossart, P. et al., "Dendritic cells in cancer vaccines," Exp. Hematol. 29: 1247-55 (2001 ).
- Cancer has been described as a disorder of the immune system, based on the fact that the immune system fails, at least in certain segments of the afflicted human population, to respond optimally to cancerous cells.
- cancer cells consist mainly of self-antigens, in striking contrast to the situation with infectious organisms. Some antigens that are classified as cancer antigens are actually normal antigens that are overexpressed, or normal antigens that have a mutation in only one or two amino acids in the polypeptide chain.
- cancer cells down-regulate Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC), and thus do not much present tumor cell-derived peptides by way of MHC.
- MHC Major Histocompatibility Complex
- cancer cells and associated tumor-associated macrophages, express cytokines that dampen the immune response (see, e.g., Yu et al (2007) Nature Rev. Immunol. 7:41 -51 ). This dampening is caused, for example, by the secretion of interleukin-10 (IL-10) by the cancer cells or by the associated macrophages.
- IL-10 interleukin-10
- cancer cells do not provide any immune adjuvant.
- Pathogens express a variety of naturally-occurring immune adjuvants, which take the form of toll-like receptor (TLR) agonists and NOD agonists (see, e.g., Kleinnijenhuis et al (201 1 ) Clin. Dev. Immunol.
- TLRs toll-like receptors
- DCs generated ex vivo by culturing hematopoietic progenitor cells or monocytes with cytokine combinations have been tested as therapeutic vaccines in cancer patients for more than a decade (Ueno H, et al., Immunol. Rev. (2010) 234: 199-212).
- sipuleucel-T also known as APC 8015
- APC 8015 is a cellular product based on enriched blood APCs that are briefly cultured with a fusion protein of prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP) and granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF)
- PAP prostatic acid phosphatase
- GM-CSF granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor
- DCs can be provided with tumor-specific antigens by culturing DCs ex vivo with an adjuvant and a tumor-specific antigen, and then injecting these cells back into the patient.
- Tumor cells obtained from an excised tumor, needle biopsy, core biopsy, vacuum-assisted biopsy or peritoneal lavage have been used to generate
- immunogenic compositions comprising tumor-specific-antigen presenting dendritic cells.
- CTCs Cancer stem cells circulating within the blood stream are known as circulating tumor cells (CTCs).
- CTCs express the markers of cancer stem cells (CSCs) that have adopted an epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) for increased mobility and migration.
- CTCs express biomarkers including, for example, N-cadherin, vimentin, CD44 and fibronectin (Liu et al., Stem Cell Reports, 2014; 2: 78-91 ); Mani et al., Cell 2008; 4: 704-715).
- Circulating tumor cells are shed by a primary tumor and ultimately cause distant metastases.
- CTC sampling is minimally invasive, repeatable, prognostic/predictive; and provides information about tumor biology and drug effects. Circulating tumor cells captured from peripheral blood have been shown to predict disease outcome and therapy response in cancer patients.
- CTCs have been isolated from blood by methods that rely on immunomagnetic binding of cell surface epithelial cell adhesion molecules. This method is limited to EpCAM-expressing tumors. See, e.g., CELLSEARCH® CTC Kit, Janssen Diagnostics, LLC, Cristofanill, M et al, N. Engl. J. Med. 351 : 781 -91 (2004).
- Zheng et al captured CTCs on a parylene-C pore microfilter, which traps CTCs based on their size differential from other blood cells, but relied on fixation, staining and visual enumeration of captured cells.
- telomerase activity-a recognized cancer marker- was reliably detected by quantitative PCR from as few as 25 cancer cells added into 7.5 mL of whole blood and captured on the microfilter. Significant telomerase activity elevation was also measured from captured live cells processed from patients' blood samples for up to 24 hours from the time of blood draw and from single cancer cells lifted off of the microfilter.
- Rho associated coiled-coil kinase is a key regulator of actin organization and thus a regulator of cell migration.
- Rho kinase inhibitor Y-27632 in combination with fibroblast feeder cells, induces normal and tumor epithelial cells from many tissues to proliferate indefinitely in vitro (Liu, Xuefeng et al. ROCK
- ROCK inhibits the de-polymerization of actin filaments indirectly by phosphorylating and activating LIM kinase, which in turn phosphorylates ADF/cofilin, thereby inactivating its actin-de- polymerization activity. This results in the stabilization of actin filaments and an increase in their numbers. The increase in stable actin filaments and the loss of actin monomers contribute to a reduction of cell migration and cell shape definition.
- ROCK inhibitors by preventing tumor spreading and blocking cell migration into neighboring tissue, may be useful for treating cancer disease (Hahmann C, Schroeter T (2010). "Rho-kinase inhibitors as therapeutics: from pan-inhibition to isoform selectivity”. Cell Mol Life Sci 67 (2): 171 - 7).
- ROCK inhibitors may be effective in reducing adherent tumor cell behavior, other research indicates that these inhibitors could inadvertently increase metastatic potential of non-adherent CTCs by increasing their reattachment efficacy (Bhandary L, Whipple RA, Vitolo Ml, et al. ROCK inhibition promotes microtentacles that enhance reattachment of breast cancer cells. Oncotarget. 2015; 6(8):6251 - 6266).

- ROCK which is a well-known effector of RhoA, upregulates the activity of PTEN.
- Activated PTEN downregulates Akt activity, which is essential for cell proliferation.
- PTEN regulates the phosphatidylinositol 3,4, 5,-trisphosphate and Akt signaling pathway and consequently modulates two critical cellular processes: cell cycle progression and cell survival (Sun H et al.
- RhoA-ROCK-PTEN pathway acts as a molecular switch to control cell proliferation and determine anchorage dependence. In cells that are poorly attached to

- therapeutic component refers to a therapeutically effective dosage (i.e., dose and frequency of administration) that eliminates, reduces, or prevents the progression of a particular disease manifestation in a percentage of a population.
- An example of a commonly used therapeutic component is the ED50 which describes the dose in a particular dosage that is therapeutically effective for a particular disease manifestation in 50% of a population.
- terapéuticaally effective amount refers to an amount that is sufficient to provide the intended benefit of treatment.
- dosage levels are based on a variety of factors, including the type of injury, the age, weight, sex, medical condition of the patient, the severity of the condition, the route of administration, and the particular active agent employed. Thus the dosage regimen may vary widely, but can be determined routinely by a physician using standard methods. Additionally, the terms “therapeutic amount”, “therapeutically effective amounts” and “pharmaceutically effective amounts” include prophylactic or preventative amounts of the compositions of the described invention.
- compositions or medicaments are administered to a patient susceptible to, or otherwise at risk of, a disease, disorder or condition in an amount sufficient to eliminate or reduce the risk, lessen the severity, or delay the onset of the disease, disorder or condition, including biochemical, histologic and/or behavioral symptoms of the disease, disorder or condition, its complications, and intermediate pathological phenotypes presenting during development of the disease, disorder or condition.

- Two pharmaceutically equivalent drug products are considered to be bioequivalent when the rates and extents of bioavailability of the active ingredient in the two products are not significantly different under suitable test conditions.
- the term "therapeutic window” refers to a concentration range that provides therapeutic efficacy without unacceptable toxicity. Following administration of a dose of a drug, its effects usually show a characteristic temporal pattern. A lag period is present before the drug concentration exceeds the minimum effective concentration (“MEC") for the desired effect. Following onset of the response, the intensity of the effect increases as the drug continues to be absorbed and distributed. This reaches a peak, after which drug elimination results in a decline in the effect's intensity that disappears when the drug concentration falls back below the MEC. Accordingly, the duration of a drug's action is determined by the time period over which concentrations exceed the MEC. The therapeutic goal is to obtain and maintain concentrations within the therapeutic window for the desired response with a minimum of toxicity.
- Drug response below the MEC for the desired effect will be subtherapeutic, whereas for an adverse effect, the probability of toxicity will increase above the MEC.
- Increasing or decreasing drug dosage shifts the response curve up or down the intensity scale and is used to modulate the drug's effect.
- Increasing the dose also prolongs a drug's duration of action but at the risk of increasing the likelihood of adverse effects. Accordingly, unless the drug is nontoxic, increasing the dose is not a useful strategy for extending a drug's duration of action.
- concentration that produces about half of the greatest possible therapeutic effect and the upper limit of the therapeutic range is such that no more than about 5% to about 10% of patients will experience a toxic effect.
- a target level strategy is reasonable, wherein a desired target steady-state concentration of the drug (usually in plasma) associated with efficacy and minimal toxicity is chosen, and a dosage is computed that is expected to achieve this value. Drug concentrations subsequently are measured and dosage is adjusted if necessary to approximate the target more closely.
- transplantation refers to removal and transfer of cells, a tissue or an organ from one part or individual to another.
- treating includes abrogating, substantially inhibiting, slowing or reversing the progression of a condition, substantially ameliorating clinical symptoms of a condition, or substantially preventing the appearance of clinical symptoms of a condition.

- Antigenic specificity can arise from the amino acid sequence of the antigen, from the degree of expression of that antigen by the tumor cell, from post- translational modification of the antigen, and the like.
- Specificity to a certain type of cancer cell can also arise from a particular fingerprint of a plurality of tumor antigens. Specificity can also arise, from the fact that a particular antigen, while expressed by a wide variety of tumor cells, has particular use in immunotherapy against a smaller number of tumor types. Specificity can also arise from the fact that a particular collection of MHC class I presentable and MHC class II presentable epitopes exist, on a particular polypeptide or polypeptide fragment. Also, specificity in an administered antigen can arise by omitting one or more peptides that can provoke immunotolerance.

- Blood is a composite of erythrocytes (red blood cells), leukocytes (white blood cells), platelets, protein rich plasma (e.g., albumin, coagulation proteins), nutrients/metabolites (glucose) and dissolved gases (i.e., oxygen and carbon dioxide).

- Coagulation is a major concern for CTC viability in whole blood. Blood contains platelets and serum proteins (i.e., coagulation factors) that induce clotting as a mechanism to prevent blood loss. If drawn blood is not properly treated with an anti-coagulant, the blood will clot and trap/compromise the viability of the CTCs. Coagulation is a complex cascade process with many steps and layers of regulation (reviewed Furie et al., Cell 1988, 53:505-18). Despite this complexity, calcium (Ca 2+ ) is absolutely required for coagulation.
- anti-coagulation agents e.g., heparin, sodium citrate, EDTA
- K3 EDTA can be incorporated into these experiments using the recommended concentration of 1 .5 mg/mL of blood (NCCLS, 1996). It is unknown whether K3EDTA is cytotoxic to CTCs. Therefore, initial experiments can be performed to test the in vitro toxicity of K3EDTA.
- a 96 well plate containing 10,000 cells/well in off-the-clot human serum (Valley Biomedical, Winchester, VA) or culture media can be subjected to various K3EDTA concentrations (0.0; 0.5, 1 .0; 1 .5 mg/mL) and analyzed for morphology and survival at 12, 24, and 48 hours at 37°C (Table 4).
- K3EDTA concentrations 0.0; 0.5, 1 .0; 1 .5 mg/mL
- Metabolism One milliliter (1 ml_) of blood contains 4 - 8 million erythrocytes, which accounts for 40-45% of the blood volume.
- An erythrocyte uses glucose and glycolysis as its sole source of energy. Pyruvate is the end product of glycolysis.
- pyruvate In cells with mitochondria and oxidative metabolism, pyruvate is converted completely into CO 2 and H 2 O, termed aerobic glycolysis (Feig et al., Journal of clinical Investigation 1972, 51 :1547-54). In erythrocytes, which lack mitochondria and oxidative metabolism, pyruvate is reduced to lactic acid (the product of anaerobic glycolysis). As peripheral blood is collected from a venous source, the oxygen load is already diminished. It is expected that blood kept at body temperature will rapidly consume the glucose from the serum, decrease O 2 levels, and increase the concentration of CO 2 and lactic acid. As a consequence, hydrogen ions accumulate and can decrease the pH of the blood (acidosis).
- Oxygenation of the blood sample is not practical after collection in vacutainer tubes. Measures that reduce the basal metabolism and consequently the oxygen and energetic substrate consumption should be in place for any transportation system. A "hibernation" status could be accomplished by simple reduction in the storage temperature during transportation and manipulations. The effect of temperature induced hibernation can be tested by subjecting whole blood samples spiked with tumor cells to ambient temperature (18°C) and 4 °C (Table 4).
- supplementing whole blood with cell culture medium can improve survival by increasing metabolic substrate (e.g., glucose, L-glutamine) levels, adding metabolic substrate (e.g., glucose, L-glutamine) to the metabolic substrate (e.g., glucose, L-glutamine) levels, adding metabolic substrate (e.g., glucose, L-glutamine) to the metabolic substrate (e.g., glucose, L-glutamine) levels, adding metabolic substrate (e.g., glucose, L-glutamine) levels, adding metabolic substrate
- metabolic substrate e.g., glucose, L-glutamine
- the addition of cell culture medium can also produce a dilution of the whole blood that may be beneficial for survival by reducing cell density.
- the culture medium can contain: a basal formulation such as DMEM:F12 supplemented with insulin, glutathione, putrescine, and HEPES buffer.
- whole blood can be diluted with cell culture medium or a specialized commercial hibernation media (e.g., HypoThermosol®, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO; or Prime-XV®, Irvine Scientific, Santa Ana, CA) and tested with the lacing/retrieval system (Table 4).
- Hemolysis of erythrocytes during storage and shipment could reduce O 2 levels in the blood due to released hemoglobin.
- the addition of the hemoglobin-binding glycoprotein heptaglobin can be used to scavenge free hemoglobin and prevent oxygen reduction (Ascenzi et al., IUBMB Life 2005, 57:749-59).
- the inclusion of heptaglobin has the added benefit of acting as an anti-inflammatory agent when complexed with hemoglobin. More specifically, during inflammation, macrophages express the cell surface receptor CD163 which binds heptaglobin-hemoglobin complexes and mediates its endocytosis.
- heptaglobin 1 -1 Three different phenotypic variants of the heptaglobin gene exist in human: heptaglobin 1 -1 , 2-1 and 2-2 (Langlois et al., Clinical Chemistry 1996, 42:1589-600). These heptaglobin polymorphisms have different abilities to interact with CD163 when bound to hemoglobin. For example, heptaglobin 1 -1 interacts weakly with CD163, heptaglobin 2-1 moderately binds to CD163 and heptaglobin strongly interacts with CD163.
- the cytoprotective effect of heptaglobin 2-2 on CTCs viability at concentrations of 10 ⁇ g/mL and 100 ⁇ g/mL can be determined (Table 4).
- Nitric Oxide and free radicals The effect of the NO scavenger carboxy-PTIO at concentrations of 10 and 100 ⁇ on CTC viability in whole blood can be tested (Table 4). Cells in the blood rapidly consume dissolved oxygen and release nitric oxide (NO) as a specific response to hypoxia. High levels of NO may be cytostatic or cytotoxic for tumor cells, whereas low level activity of NO can have the opposite effect and promote tumor growth. Therefore, one challenge in keeping CTCs viable in blood up to 96 hours is the potential cytotoxic effect of NO.
- NO nitric oxide
- white blood cells neutrils, basophils, eosinophils, monocytes, and lymphocytes. Commonly referred to as leukocytes, white blood cells are principally responsible for both the innate and adaptive immune systems.
- Biochemical and physiological perturbations during whole blood storage can decrease the pH and alter metabolite levels triggering immune responses
- a cocktail of cytokines that enhance the survival pathways of the cells can be used to extend the viability of CTCs.
- cytokines include, but are not limited to, ligands for receptor tyrosine kinases (e.g., FGF, EGF, PDGF, NGF and HGF), TGF beta proteins, Rho kinase (ROCK) inhibitors and PTEN inhibitors.
- FGF receptor tyrosine kinases
- EGF EGF
- PDGF EGF
- NGF and HGF TGF beta proteins
- Rho kinase (ROCK) inhibitors Rho kinase
- PTEN inhibitors e.g., PTEN inhibitors.
- CTCs enter the blood stream via an epithelial-to-mesenchymal (EMT) transition.
- EMT epithelial-to-mesenchymal
- EMT driven by the interplay between growth factor signaling activities, induces epithelial cells to lose their polarity and adhesion properties and adopt a migratory mesenchymal fate.
- EMT supports metastasis through tumor-initiating cell dissociation from the primary tumor and spread to other sites in the body.
- EMT epidermal growth factor
- WNT WNT signaling pathway
- TGF transforming growth factor beta
- Notch Notch pathway
- Hedgehog Hedgehog pathway
- integral signaling either alone or in combination
- Rho-associated protein kinases mediate various cellular functions such as cell shape, motility, secretion, proliferation, and gene expression.
- ROCK expression is increased in metastatic tumors and is believed to contribute to invasive properties (Liu et al., Cancer Research 2009, 69:8742-51 ). In other tumors, increased ROCK expression causes tumor inhibition (Castro et al. Stem Cells 2013, 31 :12-22).
- ROCK inhibitors e.g., Y27632
- Y27632 in embryonic stem cell culture systems permits survival of isolated cells at clonal dilutions. Therefore, CTC survival in the presence of blood and Y27632 can be tested (Table 4).
- PI3K phosphoinositide 3-kinase
- ESC embryonic stem cells
- Sox2 transcription factors involved in self-renewal of ESCs.
- PI3K pathway is known to be negatively regulated by phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten (PTEN), a well-known tumor suppressor that is deleted or mutated in various types of cancer. Inhibition of PTEN tumor suppressor promotes the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (Liao et al., Molecular Therapy 2013, 21 :1242-50).
- Tumor cells can be seeded at a density of 10,000 cells/well on cell culture treated plastic in a media that contains RPMI (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) and 5% FBS
- 96-well plates offer the advantage that multiple growth factor combinations can be tested in parallel and provide a convenient platform for cell proliferation assays (e.g., MTT, EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA).
- cell proliferation assays e.g., MTT, EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA.
- a plate containing a group of factors in 3 replicates, and one control line with no factors added can be prepared.
- the blood will be removed by aspiration, cells rinsed with HBSS and cell culture media added.
- a second control line on each plate can be seeded containing a serial dilution of increasing cell densities from 1000 to 50,000 cells per well in culture media.
- the plate can be incubated for 24 hours in a 37°C/CO 2 incubator. After incubation, an MTT assay can be performed to assess cell viability. The replicates can be averaged and the readings can be normalized to the serial diluted line to determine the viable cell number. Each test factor condition can be compared to a control (no factor condition). These experiments can be used to determine the factors that are significant for cell survival by analyzing the survival curves at 12; 24; 36; 48; 60; 72; 84; 96; 108 hours.
- experiments can be mixed with blood collected on K3EDTA laced with tumor cells.
- the mixture can be incubated at the optimal storage temperature in parallel with a control mixture not containing survival factors.
- the mixture can be analyzed with the validated S/R method and compared to baseline survival curve. This experiment can be used to confirm that the composition of the survival factor cocktail (SFC), when added to whole blood, contributes to the extended viability of CTCs.
- SFC survival factor cocktail
- Cells retrieved by Ficoll gradient and Dynabead separation can be used to demonstrate the proliferative and spherogenic ability of tumor cells in collected blood.
- Retrieved cells can be plated in a cell culture system consisting of polystyrene cell culture vessels (flasks, 6-well plate) and media that is formulated for cell expansion.
- cells not exposed to blood samples can be plated at the same density and used as a control.
- the expansion rate can be compared to the control cells, and phenotypical analyses with specific markers (e.g., CD146, CD271 ) for the cell line can be used to confirm the preservation of phenotype and proliferative capability.
- a spherogenic assay can be initiated by dissociating the adherent cultures and transferring the cells in ultra-low adherent cell culture vessels (Corning, Tewksbury, MA) in serum-free media.
- the spherogenic assay has been routinely used with cancer stem cells to definitively demonstrate the intrinsic properties of 'stem cells' of self-renewal in an isolated sub-population of tumor cells (Yuan et al, Oncogene 2004, 23: 9392-9400).
- SFC Survival Factors Cocktail
- the survival factor cocktail can be tested on a second solid carcinoma type tumor (e.g., melanoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, ovarian carcinoma, colon carcinoma, GBM, breast or non-small lung).
- a second solid carcinoma type tumor e.g., melanoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, ovarian carcinoma, colon carcinoma, GBM, breast or non-small lung.
- Recovered cells after Ficoll and CD45-Dynabeads separation can be subjected to cell proliferation assays and spherogenic assays. It has been observed that the majority of carcinomas that are successfully cultivated towards isolation of tumor initiating cells are spherogenic in appropriate conditions. In some cases, tumor initiating cell phenotype can be demonstrated by the presence of markers such as CD133 in ovarian cancer side population or CD20 in some cases of non-spherogenic melanoma cell lines. The proliferative potential can be assessed by cultivation for 3 passages and establishment of growth curves in comparison to equivalent starting cell numbers that were not exposed to the blood
- the results can be used to demonstrate that (i) the SFC can be applied to other tumor types; (ii) these tumor cells maintain viability greater than 50%; and (iii) the tumor cells retain their proliferative and spherogenic/phenotypic characteristics.
- CTCs Cancer stem cells circulating within the blood stream are known as circulating tumor cells (CTCs).
- CTCs express the markers of cancer stem cells (CSCs) that have adopted an epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) for increased motility and migration.
- CTCs express biomarkers including, for example, N-cadherin, vimentin, CD44, and fibronectin (Liu et al., (2014) Stem Cell Reports 2:78-91 ; Mani et al., Cell 2008, 4:704-715).
- CTCs isolated from blood for expansion and production of autologous circulating tumor cancer stem cell lines can be used to produce autologous dendritic cell-circulating tumor cell (DC-CTC) vaccines for the treatment of solid tumors.
- DC-CTC autologous dendritic cell-circulating tumor cell
- a double-blind study can be performed in which study patients can be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive either DC-CTC (autologous dendritic cells loaded with irradiated autologous circulating tumor cells in GM-CSF) or control (MC) (autologous PBMC in GM-CSF).
- Patients eligible for treatment can be those (1 ) who have undergone debulking surgery, (2) for whom a cell line has been established, (3) who have undergone leukapheresis, (4) are scheduled for primary adjuvant chemotherapy, and (5) who have an ECOG performance grade of 0 or 1 .
- the primary endpoint of this trial can be death from any cause with the primary endpoint of overall survival (OS) from the date of randomization.
- OS overall survival
- Progression-free survival can be a secondary endpoint and can be calculated as the time from the date of randomization for treatment to subjective tumor progression or death. Progression can be subjectively defined by the treating physician, and can be based on tumor marker levels (e.g. CA-125) and/or imaging. Secondarily, PFS and OS can also be defined from the date of debulking surgery.
- tumor marker levels e.g. CA-125
- OS can also be defined from the date of debulking surgery.
- Patients can be stratified into two groups: (1 ) platinum-resistant, based on progression during adjuvant chemotherapy or detectable disease at the conclusion of adjuvant therapy or (2) platinum-sensitive, with no evidence of disease (NED) at the conclusion of adjuvant therapy (per elevated blood CA-125 and/or tumor markers and/or detection of disease by physical examination or imaging) as summarized in the Table 5.
- NED no evidence of disease
- Optimal tumor debulking is defined as a debulking procedure that leaves patients with residual tumor nodules less than or equal to 1 cm in diameter.

Patients will sign an Informed Consent to allow their blood/tissue to be given to NeoStem and for efforts to establish an autologous circulating tumor cell line
- NeoStem Successful establishment of an autologous epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer cell line by NeoStem.
- Patients must previously have been staged as having stage III (intraperitoneal) or Stage IV (distant metastatic) ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer and have initiated or completed standard adjuvant chemotherapy, which may include intravenous and/or intraperitoneal chemotherapy using standard regimens. Patients will be characterized as being in complete remission per physical exam, CT scans, and CA-125, or not in complete remission.
- Standard adjuvant chemotherapy which may include intravenous and/or intraperitoneal chemotherapy using standard regimens.
- Patients will be characterized as being in complete remission per physical exam, CT scans, and CA-125, or not in complete remission.
- Medical fitness to undergo a leukapheresis including peripheral venous access or access by central vein if necessary.

- CTCs autologous circulating tumor cells
- HIPAA Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act
- Kaplan-Meier curves will display survival times for each treatment group.
- the log rank test will be used to analyze OS to test the null hypothesis of no treatment difference.
- the Cox regression model and the Wald test will be used to estimate the hazard ratio associated with treatment and to identify the significance of potential prognostic factors and their impact, if any on the treatment differences.
- Analyses based on the intention-to-treat population will be considered as the primary analysis
- analyses based on the Per-Protocol population will be considered as a sensitivity analysis.
- Subgroup analyses of the OS endpoint will mimic the plan laid out for the primary endpoint for platinum-resistant patients and platinum- sensitive patients separately.
- the media was supplemented with growth factors (EGF 10 ng/mL, and FGF 10 ng/mL).
- growth factors EGF 10 ng/mL, and FGF 10 ng/mL.
- the media was supplemented with N-Acetyl-Cysteine 1 mM (163.19 ⁇ g/mL); 1 ⁇ PTEN inhibitor bpV(phen) (Potassium Bisperoxo(1 ,10-phenanthroline)oxovanadate(V)trihydrate, Sigma-Aldrich) and with 5 ⁇ Rho-Associated-Kinase (ROCK) inhibitor (Y-27632, Stem Cell Technologies).
- the media was partially replaced Monday-Wednesday-Friday and supplemented with FGF/EGF combination, 10 ng/mL of each growth factor.
- ROCK inhibitors may be effective in reducing adherent tumor cell behavior, these inhibitors could inadvertently increase metastatic potential of non-adherent CTCs by increasing their reattachment efficacy (Bhandary L, Whipple RA, Vitolo Ml, et al. ROCK inhibition promotes microtentacles that enhance reattachment of breast cancer cells. Oncotarget. 2015; 6(8):6251 - 6266). Therefore, the ability of ROCK inhibitor Y-27632 to reverse the loss of adherence by tumor cells was investigated. 5 ⁇ of ROCK inhibitor Y-27632 was added to culture media of non-adherent tumor cells. The tumor cells exposed to 5 ⁇ of ROCK inhibitor re-gained adherence after overnight exposure, thus indicating that the loss of adherence by tumor cells can be reversed by the addition of ROCK inhibitor Y-27632 into the culture media ( Figure 23).
- non-adherent CTCs were exposed to ROCK inhibitor Y-27632 as described in Example 6 in order to restore adherence and facilitate isolation.
- Adherent tumor cells were separated from adherent macrophages by exposing the cell cultures to a gentle enzymatic digestion using TrypLE (Life Technologies). This gentle enzymatic digestion lifts only tumor cells from the culture surface; leaving macrophages attached.
- PTEN inhibitors activates the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway, which is important for self-renewal, proliferation, and maintenance of self-renewing cells.
- PI3K phosphoinositide 3-kinase
- the use of a PTEN inhibitor alone or combination with a ROCK inhibitor can influence survival and proliferation pathways, thereby establishing a tumor cell line from isolated CTCs.
- Non-adherent cells were exposed to 1 ⁇ PTEN inhibitor potassium bisperoxo(1 ,10- phenanthroline)oxovanadate (V) (Sigma-Aldrich) and 5 ⁇ ROCK inhibitor Y-27632.
