RESUMO

CD123, the alpha chain of the IL-3 receptor, is an attractive target for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treatment. However, cytotoxic antibodies or T cell engagers targeting CD123 had insufficient efficacy or safety in clinical trials. We show that expression of CD64, the high-affinity receptor for human IgG, on AML blasts confers resistance to anti-CD123 antibody-dependent cell cytotoxicity (ADCC) in vitro. We engineer a trifunctional natural killer cell engager (NKCE) that targets CD123 on AML blasts and NKp46 and CD16a on NK cells (CD123-NKCE). CD123-NKCE has potent antitumor activity against primary AML blasts regardless of CD64 expression and induces NK cell activation and cytokine secretion only in the presence of AML cells. Its antitumor activity in a mouse CD123+ tumor model exceeds that of the benchmark ADCC-enhanced antibody. In nonhuman primates, it had prolonged pharmacodynamic effects, depleting CD123+ cells for more than 10 days with no signs of toxicity and very low inflammatory cytokine induction over a large dose range. These results support clinical development of CD123-NKCE.

RESUMO

Myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) represent prominent components in cancer progression. We previously showed that inhibition of the VEGFR-3 pathway by SAR131675 leads to reduction of TAM infiltration and tumor growth. Here, we found that treatment with SAR131675 prevents the accumulation of immunosuppressive blood and splenic MDSCs which express VEGFR-3, in 4T1 tumor bearing mice. Moreover we showed that soluble factors secreted by tumor cells promote MDSCs proliferation and differentiation into M2 polarized F4/80+ macrophages. In addition, cell sorting and transcriptomic analysis of tumor infiltrating myeloid cells revealed the presence of a heterogeneous population that could be divided into 3 subpopulations: (i) immature cells with a MDSC phenotype (GR1+/CD11b+/F4/80-); (ii) "immuno-incompetent" macrophages (F4/80high/CD86neg/MHCIILow) strongly expressing M2 markers such as Legumain, CD206 and Mgl1/2 and (iii) "immuno-competent"-M1 like macrophages (F4/80Low/CD86+/MHCIIHigh). SAR131675 treatment reduced MDSCs in lymphoid organs as well as F4/80High populations in tumors. Interestingly, in the tumor SAR131675 was able to increase the immunocompetent M1 like population (F4/80low). Altogether these results demonstrate that the specific VEGFR-3 inhibitor SAR131675 exerts its anti tumoral activity by acting on different players that orchestrate immunosuppression and cancer progression in a tumoral context: MDSCs in peripheral lymphoid organs and TAMs infiltrating the tumor.

RESUMO

InDrosophila imaginal discs, pattern formation requires the activity of three positional information systems, antero-posterior (A/P), dorso-ventral (D/V) and proximo-distal (P/D). Three genes,Decapentaplegic, Distal-less androtund (rn), involved in pattern formation along the P/D axis have been characterized. Thern gene is required in a sub-distal region, localized at a similar position along the P/D axis in all appendages; it encodes two major transcripts, m1.7 and m5.3, both expressed in the central region of all the major imaginal discs. The present study of these transcripts in severalrn mutant favours m5.3 as encodingrn morphogenetic function in the imaginal discs. The fine characterization of its distribution partitions all major imaginal discs in domains along the P/D axis. The ventral and dorsal discs appear to be similarly but not identically organized: two P/D domains are evident in the wing and haltere discs whilst the leg and antenna discs appear to be composed of at least three. We also show that m5.3 is sex-regulated in the genital disc and thatrn function is required for proper development of a sub-distal structure of the female genitalia. This suggests that the primordia of the female genitalia may be organized in a similar way to the other imaginal discs, and strongly supports the hypothesis thatrn function is specific to pattern formation along the P/D axis and that it may be involved in the establishment or maintenance of this pattern.
