Abstract Text | A novel antibody-drug conjugate (trastuzumab-DM1, T-DM1) is currently in clinical trials for patients with trastuzumab resistant HER2-positive breast cancer. Since no clinical data is available from gastric cancer, we studied T-DM1 on HER2-positive human gastric cancer cells and xenograft tumors.Effects of T-DM1 were studied in four HER2-positive gastric cancer cell lines (N-87, OE-19, SNU-216 and MKN-7) in vitro. Xenograft tumors from N-87 and OE-19 were studied to determine the effect of T-DM1 in vivo.T-DM1 was found more effective than trastuzumab in N-87 and OE-19, and moderately effective in MKN-7 cells. On SNU-216 cells both trastuzumab and T-DM1 showed limited efficacy. In xenograft tumor experiments, complete pathological response was observed in all OE-19 xenografted mice and in half of the N-87 xenografted mice. The results were equally good irrespective of the tumor burden at therapy initiation, or preceding trastuzumab treatment. T-DM1 treatment showed direct effects (apoptotic cell death and aberrant mitosis) as well as it mediated antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC).T-DM1 showed a promising anti-tumor effect in HER2-positive gastric cancer cell lines in vitro and in vivo, even in tumors which had developed resistance to trastuzumab. T-DM1 therapy may warrant clinical trials for HER2-positive gastric cancer patients. |
