Abstract | BACKGROUND: METHODS: As a proof of concept, we constructed DLL3-targeted bispecific antibody and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-modified T cells. In vitro and in vivo tumor-suppression activity of these treatments alone or in combination with a Program Death-1 (PD-1) inhibitory antibody was evaluated. RESULTS: In vitro studies showed that both DLL3 bispecific antibody and CAR-T efficiently killed DLL3-positive cancer cells, including the native SCLC cell lines H446, H196, H82, and the artificial A431 cells that were forcefully overexpressing DLL3. In vivo studies in xenograft mouse models demonstrated that both bispecific antibody and CAR-T suppressed the tumor growth, and combination therapy with PD-1 inhibitory antibody dramatically improved the efficacy of the DLL3 bispecific antibody, but not the CAR-T cells. CONCLUSIONS: Our results demonstrated that DLL3-targeted bispecific antibody plus PD-1 inhibition was effective in controlling SCLC growth.
