CXCL10-induced chemotaxis of ex vivo-expanded natural killer cells combined with NKTR-255 enhances anti-tumor efficacy in osteosarcoma


ABSTRACT: Osteosarcoma (OSA) has a dismal prognosis despite surgical resection and multiagent chemotherapy. While adoptive natural killer (NK) cell therapies have been successful in hematological malignancies, the application in solid tumors is challenging due to a tumor microenvironment (TME) that impairs NK cell tumor infiltration. Here, we found that ex vivo expansion of NK cells significantly increases the expression of CXCR3, one of the major proteins in the regulation of NK cell chemotaxis. Engineered over-secretion of CXCR3 ligands, CXCL9, -10 or -11, from OSA cells significantly enhanced expanded NK cell migration toward OSA cells in vitro and infiltration into the TME in vivo, with the highest NK infiltration rate in CXCL10-secreting tumors. Infusions of expanded NK cells significantly reduced (p = 0.02), and concomitant treatment with an IL-15 agonist NKTR-255 further reduced tumor burden and significantly increased survival in mice bearing CXCL10-secreting tumors compared with those with wild-type tumors (p = 0.02). Single-cell RNA sequencing and mass cytometry revealed upregulated apoptosis and TGF-β signaling as the potential mechanisms of response/resistance to NK cell therapy in vivo. Our findings highlight potential application of chemokine-enhanced NK tumor infiltration in combination with an IL-15 agonist as a novel approach to effective treatment of OSA.
