Complete Remissions of HER2-Positive Trastuzumab-Resistant Xenografts Using a Potent [225Ac]Ac-Labeled Anti-HER2 Antibody–Drug Radioconjugate
Bibliographic record
Abstract
PURPOSE: There is overwhelming interest to use actinium-225 ([225Ac]Ac) to develop targeted α therapies. Antibody-drug conjugates (ADC) are highly cytotoxic. Combining [225Ac]Ac with an ADC to develop an antibody-drug radioconjugate [225Ac]Ac-macropa-trastuzumab(T)-PEG6-emtansine (DM1), is expected to be more effective than its ADC (T-PEG6-DM1) against breast cancer. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: [89Zr]Zr-p-isothiocyanatobenzyl desferrioxamine (DFO)-T-PEG6-DM1 (imaging) and [225Ac]Ac-macropa-T-PEG6-DM1 (radiotherapy) were developed. Biodistribution and safety evaluations of [225Ac]Ac-macropa-T-PEG6-DM1 were carried out in non-tumor-bearing BALB/c mice. MicroPET imaging and biodistribution were done using [89Zr]Zr-DFO-T-PEG6-DM1, and radiotherapy using [225Ac]Ac-macropa-T-PEG6-DM1 was carried out in athymic BALB/c nude mice bearing trastuzumab-resistant HCC1954 and trastuzumab-DM1 (T-DM1)/trastuzumab-resistant JIMT-1 tumor-bearing mice. RESULTS: After 7 days of incubation at 37°C, [225Ac]Ac-macropa-T-PEG6-DM1 was stable in both human serum (89.2% ± 0.9%) and PBS (82.8% ± 0.4%). T-PEG6-DM1 (8 mg/kg) and [225Ac]Ac-macropa-T-PEG6-DM1 (3 × 18 kBq) administered separately in non-tumor-bearing mice 10 days apart were well tolerated biochemically and hematologically. Imaging and biodistribution showed high tumor uptake of [89Zr]Zr-DFO-T-PEG6-DM1 in tumor-bearing mice at 120 hours after injection: 38.1% ± 2.8% IA/g (HCC1954) and 14.6% ± 1% IA/g (JIMT-1). In HCC1954 tumor-bearing mice, all treatment groups had complete remission (8/8), indicative of the responsiveness of the xenograft to T-DM1-based treatments, whereas for JIMT-1 xenografts (having 1/8 complete remission) at 23 days after treatment, tumor volumes were 332.1 ± 77.5 vs. 244.6 ± 63 vs. 417.9 ± 62.1 vs. 102.4 ± 18.5 for the saline (negative control), T-DM1 (positive control), T-PEG6-DM1, and [225Ac]Ac-macropa-T-PEG6-DM1, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: [225Ac]Ac-macropa-T-PEG6-DM1 is more potent than ADC against trastuzumab-resistant breast cancer and necessitates clinical translation.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
