This study successfully utilized bisphosphonates as innate immune regulators in combination with peptide antigens and a nanocarrier to enhance immune response and achieve a 50% total disappearance of tumor cells. The combination also showed promising results in a prophylactic study with no tumor occurrence in the nanovaccine group during a 110-day study with 3 time tumor challenges.
Most of tumor vaccines currently focus on inducing adaptive immunity, while the antitumor potential of innate immunity is getting more attentions. In an attempt to recruit both innate and adaptive immunity, bisphosphonates (BPs) as a type of orthopaedics drugs with biosafety was applied in an antitumor vaccine here as an innate immune regulator. BPs and calcium themselves shaped the biodegradable nanocarrier via their coordination (CaBPs), which could load peptide antigens due to its hydrophilicity and be stabilized by surface lipids including a TLR4 agonist (nanovaccine). As results, the incorporation of BPs triggered the proliferation and activation of DCs and innate-like gamma delta T cells, while the nanovaccine enhanced antigen presentation and specific lysis of tumor cells. The combination of nanovaccine and anti-PD-1 achieved a 50% total disappearance of tumor. In a prophylactic study, no any tumor occurred in nanovaccine group during a 110 day study with 3 time tumor challenges. Generally, this study validates the double antitumor immunities and provides a very promising approach for clinic application. (C) 2021 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
