A Bifunctional Antibody Targeting PD-1 and TGF-β Signaling Has Antitumor Activity in Combination with Radiotherapy and Attenuates Radiation-Induced Lung Injury.

ABSTRACT: Radio-immunotherapy has antitumor activity but also causes toxicity, which limits its clinical application. JS-201 is a dual antibody targeting PD-1 and TGF-β signaling. We investigated the antitumor effect of JS-201 combined with radiotherapy (RT) and the effect on radiation-induced lung injury (RILI). Different tumor models were established to detect the antitumor effects of the combination of JS-201 and RT, and RILI models were established to observe the effects of JS-201. Transcriptome sequencing showed that JS-201 optimized the tumor microenvironment by inhibiting extracellular matrix formation and angiogenesis. Combining JS-201 with RT further increased the inflammatory response and immune infiltration and showed great abscopal effects in Lewis lung cancer luciferase-positive models.
