PG - 113138 LID - S2211-1247(23)01150-6 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.celrep.2023.113138 [doi] AB - Advances in the development of therapeutic extracellular vesicles (EVs) for cancer immunotherapy have allowed them to emerge as an alternative to cell therapy. In this proof-of-concept work, we develop bispecific EVs (BsEVs) by genetically engineering EV-producing dendritic cells (DCs) with aCD19 scFv and PD1 for targeting tumor antigens and blocking immune checkpoint proteins simultaneously. We find that these bispecific EVs (EVs-PD1-aCD19) have an impressive ability to accumulate in huCD19-expressing solid tumors following intravenous injection. In addition, EVs-PD1-aCD19 can remarkably reverse the immune landscape of the solid tumor by blocking PD-L1. Furthermore, EVs-PD1-aCD19 can also target tumor-derived EVs in circulation, which prevents the formation of a premetastatic niche in other tissues. Our technology is a demonstration of bispecific EV-based cancer immunotherapy, which may inspire treatments against various types of tumors with different surface antigens and even a patient-tailored therapy.
