DOG1 as a novel antibody-drug conjugate target for the treatment of multiple gastrointestinal tumors and liver metastasis.

ABSTRACT: Discovered On Gastrointestinal stromal tumors protein 1 (DOG1), a major calcium-activated chloride channel, has been used as a common diagnostic marker for gastrointestinal stromal tumors. However, the therapeutic application of DOG1 was not well defined. Here, we aim to investigate its potential as a therapeutic target for an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) in various cancers of the alimentary tract and metastasis. The DOG1 expression profile was determined among TCGA samples and tissue microarrays. High levels of DOG1 expression were ubiquitously observed in multiple cancer samples from the alimentary tract determined by TCGA samples and tissue microarrays. Circulating tumor cells isolated from metastatic colon cancer patients were also positive for DOG1 expression. The mechanisms of anti-
