- SCLC Small cell lung cancer
- Cell lines All cell lines were purchased from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) (Manassas, VA) . The cell lines are listed in Tables 1 and 2. The origin of each is listed by the ATCC as SCLC, obtained from biopsy of lung nodules except for H82, H187 and H196 which originated from pleural effusions and H211 and H345 which originated from bone marrow biopsies. SHP77 is listed as large cell variant SCLC .
- Monoclonal antibodies The target antigens for the seven mAbs, the source of the mAbs and the concentration used in the FACS studies are described below.
- Globo H mAb VK9, Kenneth Lloyd (MSKCC) , 20/xg/ml. Polysialic acid, mAb 5A5, Urs Rutishauser (MSKCC), ascites 0. l ⁇ g/ml .
- Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorter (FACS) Assay The ten SCLC cell lines served as targets. Single cell suspensions of 2 x 10 ⁇ cells/tube were washed with 3% fetal calf serum in PBS and incubated with 20 ⁇ l of 1:20 diluted mAb for 30 min on ice. After washing the cells twice with 3% FCS in PBS, 20 ⁇ l of 1:15 rabbit anti-human IgG or IgM-labeled with FITC was added. The suspension was mixed, incubated for 30 min and washed. The percent positive population and mean fluorescence intensity of stained cells were analyzed using a FACS Scan (Becton-Dickinson, CA) (8, 9) with percent positive cells for second antibody alone set at 1%.
- FACS Scan Becton-Dickinson, CA
- Complement Dependent Cytotoxicity CDC and Antibody Dependent Cellular Cytotoxicity (ADCC) : Complement dependent cytotoxicity was assayed on the ten cell lines using a 2-hour 51 chromium release assay as previously described (10) with human complement with MoAb at lO ⁇ g/ml. Approximately 10 7 cells were labeled with 100 ⁇ Ci of Na 2 51 Cr0 4 (New England Nuclear, Boston, MA) in 3% HSA for 2h at 37 °C, shaking every 15 min. The cells were washed four times and brought to a concentration of 10 6 live cells/ml.
- CDC Complement Dependent Cytotoxicity
- ADCC Antibody Dependent Cellular Cytotoxicity
- Spontaneous release (the amount released by target cells incubated with complement alone) was subtracted from both experimental and maximal release values .
- Maximum release was the amount of radioactivity released by target cells after a 2-hour incubation with 1% Triton X-100. Percent specific release was calculated as corrected experimental/corrected maximal release.
- Concentrations of anti-CD55 and anti-CD59 between 25 and 150 ⁇ g/ml were added to CDC assay wells with the mAbs or mAb pools to counteract inhibition mediated by CD55 and CD59.
- Mab clone BRIC 216 against CD55 and mAb MEM-43 against CD59 were purchased from Serotec Inc. (Raleigh, N.C.).
- Cell surface reactivity for the 7 monoclonal antibodies utilized at the concentrations summarized in Table 1 ranged from 1% to more than 90% in the 10 SCLC cell lines.
- Two of the mAbs (PGNX recognizing GM2 and 5A5 recognizing polySA) resulted in 50% or more positive cells in 6 of the 10 SCLC cell lines.
- the other mAbs demonstrated comparable reactivity with 5 or fewer cell lines.
- 9 of 10 cell lines demonstrated 50% or greater positive cells.
- Complement dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) assays using human complement demonstrated 30% or greater lysis in 5 of the 10 cell lines with PGNX against GM2, in 3-4 of the 10 cell lines with mAbs against fucosylated GMl, GD2 and GD3 , and none of the cell lines with mAb against polysialic acid, globoH and sialyl Le A (Table 2) .
- the 4 antibody pool including fucosylated GMl, GM2 , globoH and polysialic acid resulted in greater than 30% cytotoxicity for 9 of the 10 cell lines.
- H345 This was increased slightly by the addition of antibodies against GD2 and GD3 but still one cell line, H345, had less than 30% cytotoxicity despite the fact that 99% of the H345 cells had strong reactivity by FACS with the same pools. Aside from H345, FACS and CDC correlated fairly closely, with some such as HSP77 and H211 demonstrating stronger than expected CDC.
- CD55 was strongly expressed on 3 of the 10 cell lines (SHP77, H524 and H196) and CD59 was strongly expressed on all cell lines except H211 and H82. There was no clear correlation between expression of these 2 complement resistance factors and the level of complement dependent cytotoxicity (Table 3). H345 was one of the many strongly CD59 positive cell lines but was only moderately positive for CD55. H345 may have been negative by CDC because the predominate antigen recognized by these mAbs at the cell surface is polysialic acid. Nevertheless, to explore the role of CD55 and CD59 in complement lysis against this apparently complement resistant cell line the CDC assay in the presence of anti-CD55 or anti-CD59 mAbs was performed (see Table 3) .
- Biopsies of SCLC demonstrate a rich array of cell carbohydrate surface antigens. Fucosyl GMl, GM2, polysialic acid, globo H, sialyl Le , GD2 and GD3 are the most widely expressed of these. These are each excellent targets for active or passive antibody mediated immunotherapy of SCLC, but no one of these antigens has been shown to be expressed on more than 70 or 80% of SCLC biopsy specimens. This is the basis for the focus on constructing a polyvalent vaccine against several of these antigens, but which ones? Are all required? Will antibodies induced against some of these antigens detract from the impact of antibodies induced against other antigens? Would a pool of antibodies be able to target all SCLCs .
- CDC resistance was assumed to be a consequence of the great distance from the cell surface that complement activation occurs, similar to the resistance to CDC described against Salmonella minnesota, Salmonella monte video, sudamina aeruginosa and other "smooth" bacterial strains with long lipopolysaccharide chains (18, 19) .
- Complement activation initiates a cascade of enzyme activities resulting in binding of C3b and eventually insertion of the C5b-9 protein complement membrane attack complex (MAC) into cell membranes to form pores.
- Dimensions of the MAC are 100 by 150 angstroms (25) .
- the molecular weight of the NCAM C-terminal extracellular subunit and flanking sequence are in excess of 100KD (24) , -making it likely that the polysialic acid portion begins 100 angstroms or more from the cell membrane. If complement activation occurs at sites more distant than 100 angstroms from the cell membrane, the membrane attack complex would not form or if formed would not reach the cell membrane and a number of serum proteins would quickly inactivate the forming membrane attack complex (25) . Even in this case, C3 mediated inflammation and opsonization would remain in place.
- mAb5A5 again proved to be a highly reactive IgM antibody, resulting in potent cell surface reactivity by FACS against 6 of the 10 SCLC cell lines, but it was unable to mediate complement cytotoxicity against any cell line. This is consistent with our previous finding with sera from SCLC patients after vaccination
- CD55 has not been found on either of the two SCLC biopsies described to date (27, 28) and was seen in 0/4
