| Sumario: | α-Sulfoquinovosylacyl-1,3-propanediol (SQAP) is a semi-synthetic derivative of natural sulfoglycolipid that sensitizes tumors to external-beam radiotherapy. How SQAP affects internal radiotherapy, however, is not known. Here, we investigated the effects of SQAP for radioimmunotherapy (RIT) targeting tissue factor (TF) in a stroma-rich refractory pancreatic cancer mouse model, BxPC-3. A low dose of SQAP (2 mg/kg) increased tumor uptake of the 111In-labeled anti-TF antibody 1849, indicating increased tumor perfusion. The addition of SQAP enhanced the growth-inhibitory effect of 90Y-labeled 1849 without leading to severe body weight changes, allowing for the dose of 90Y-labeled 1849 to be reduced to half that when used alone. Histologic analysis revealed few necrotic and apoptotic cells, but Ki-67–positive proliferating cells and increased vascular formation were detected. These results suggest that the addition of a low dose of SQAP may improve the therapeutic efficacy of TF-targeted RIT by increasing tumor perfusion, even for stroma-rich refractory pancreatic cancer. |
