CD47 overexpression

mir-940 can inhibit the biological function of lung adenocarcinoma cells by targeting CD47.

Furthermore, hematopoietic stem cells expressing transgenic CD47-IgV show no detectable alterations in engraftment or differentiation. This study provides a potentially effective means of achieving transgenic CD47 expression that may help to produce gene-edited pigs for xenotransplantation and hypoimmunogenic pluripotent stem cells for regenerative medicine.

This study highlights the potential of the CD47 molecule as a promising immunotherapeutic target in STS, particularly given its elevated expression levels in diverse sarcoma types. Our data showed a notable trend linking CD47 expression to tumor grade, while also suggesting an interesting correlation between enhanced abundance of CD47 expression and a reduced hazard risk of disease progression. Although these findings shed light on different roles of CD47 in STS, further research is crucial to assess its potential in clinical settings.

Our results demonstrate the critical regulatory role of HDAC6 in phagocytosis and innate immunity for the first time, further underscoring the use of these inhibitors to potentiate CD47 immune checkpoint blockade therapeutic strategies.

Collectively, these results showed that the MGMT unmethylation and high levels of CD47 and TIGIT are associated with a poor prognosis in ADG. Patients with high CD47 and TIGIT expression may benefit from anti-CD47 and TIGIT immunotherapy.

Moreover, P4HA3 caused colon cancer cells to secrete Interleukin 34 (IL34) and Macrophage colony stimulating factor (M-CSF), which further induced macrophages to differentiate to M2 type and thereby contributed to the progression of colon cancer. We have demonstrated that P4HA3-driven CD47 overexpression may act as an escape mechanism, causing colon cancer cells to evade phagocytosis from macrophages.

CD47 correlated with various malignant biology and genetic characteristics of EOC and may play pivotal and multifaceted roles in the tumor microenvironment of EOC Finally, we constructed a reliable prediction model centered on CD47 and integrated CA125 and BRCA to better guide high-risk population management.

In vitro, BMS-986351 increased phagocytic activity against cell lines from solid tumors and hematological malignancies, and this effect was markedly enhanced when BMS-986351 was combined with the opsonizing antibodies cetuximab and rituximab. A phase I dose escalation/ expansion study of BMS-986351 for the treatment of advanced solid and hematologic malignancies is underway (NCT03783403).

Our results underscore the potential of the engineered anti-CD47 nanobody as a promising candidate for cancer immunotherapy. The derived nanobody could offer a more effective, cost-efficient alternative to conventional antibodies in disrupting the CD47-SIRPα axis, opening doors for its standalone or combinatorial therapeutic applications in oncology.

Venetoclax (VEN) is a specific B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitor that can restore apoptosis in malignant cells...Therefore, we attempted to enhance this medullary macrophage population with agonism of TLR3 via Poly(I:C), which led to expansion and activation of medullary macrophages in in vivo AML PDX models and potentiated CD47i. In summary, the addition of Poly(I:C) can enhance medullary macrophage populations to potentiate the phagocytosis merited by therapeutic inhibition of CD47.

"In vivo efficacy was evaluated using a systemic NALM-6 challenge in immune-deficient NSG mice at HIP CD19 CAR T cell doses of 5e5 and 5e6 cells per animal...Outperforming donors also showed reduced expression of MHC class II of alpha and beta heterodimers (HLA-DQA1 and HLA-DQB1). The information collected across phenotypic and functional comparisons will be compared with clinical performance."

The initial patient, a 74-year-old male with CLL (unmutated IGHV, del(11q), BTK C481S mutation) and 3 prior lines of therapy (FCR, ibrutinib, venetoclax + rituximab), received a LD regimen of cyclophosphamide 500 mg/m 2 and fludarabine 24 mg/m 2 (daily for 3 days) followed by a starting dose of 60 million CAR+ SC291 cells (of which approximately 80% are fully HIP engineered cells). Immune assays demonstrated that the CD19 HIP CAR T cell subpopulation effectively evades the host adaptive and innate immune responses and could overcome the allogeneic barrier in humans. Additional data from the ARDENT study will be presented at the time of the conference.

The CD47-SLAMF7 interaction was disrupted by CD47 blockade and by a first-in-class agonist SLAMF7 antibody, but not by SIRPα blockade, thereby promoting antitumor immunity. Hence, CD47 suppresses phagocytosis not only by engaging SIRPα, but also by masking cell-intrinsic pro-phagocytic ligands on tumor cells and knowledge of this mechanism may influence the decision between CD47 blockade or SIRPα blockade for therapeutic purposes.

Furthermore, blocking CD47 on microglia increased three-fold of the immune cell-mediated GBM cell cytotoxicity (*p < 0.005), suggesting that metabolic reprogramming associated with CD47 blockade could result in the improvement of immune adaptive responses in the GBM microenvironment. Taken together, our data indicated that CD47 blockade may be a prospective treatment to reduce GBM metabolic plasticity and increase microglia-mediated GBM killing.

Results also demonstrate that the HIP approach to generate allogeneic CAR T cells that evade innate and adaptive immune rejection can be expanded as a platform to generate CAR T cells against target antigens alternative to CD19. Collectively, the data suggest that CD22 HIP CAR T cells display a combination of antigen-specific pharmacologic activity and immune evasion that support their progression into human clinical studies for the treatment of CD19 CAR T cell-refractory patients.

Studies to further define the efficacy of HIP-modified GPRC5D CAR T cells are ongoing. Moving forward, further interrogating GPRC5D CAR activity against multiple myeloma tumor cells with varying levels of target antigen expression will be critical to understanding the benefit of deploying GPRC5D CAR T cells within the multiple myeloma clinical landscape.

In addition, the inhibitory receptor of CD47, signal regulatory protein alpha (SIRPα) is increased on macrophages from patients with follicular lymphoma who relapse or progress after frontline lenalidomide and rituximab. We show that CD47 and SIRPα were elevated in lymph node biopsies from DLBCL patients. Increased expression of SIRPα on macrophages correlated with decreased ADCP activity of tafasitamab, and CRISPR-mediated CD47 overexpression on lymphoma targets impaired tafasitamab-mediated phagocytosis, in vitro. Combination of tafasitamab and an anti-CD47 enhanced ADCP activity of in vitro generated macrophages.

By further co-encapsulating chemotherapeutic agent shikonin, photosensitizer IR820 and immunomodulator polymetformin in hEL-RS17, an enhanced antitumor effect is obtained due to the combinational treatment modality and close synergy among each component. Upon laser irradiation, the designed SPI@hEL-RS17 nanoparticles exert potent antitumor efficacy against both 4T1 breast tumor and B16F10 melanoma models, which not only suppresses primary tumor growth, but also inhibits lung metastasis and prevents tumor recurrence, exhibiting great potential in boosting CD47 blockade-based antitumor immunotherapy.

Our findings suggest a link between CD47, tumor immune response, and blood vascular invasion. Combined high expression of CD47-CD68 was an independent prognostic factor associated with poor prognosis in all cases, as well as in the luminal A category.

Lymphoma is the most common hematological malignancy and is an area of unmet clinical need. This review mainly described the current strategies targeting the CD47-SIRPα axis, including antibodies, SIRPα Fc fusion proteins, small molecule inhibitors, and peptides both in preclinical studies and clinical trials with Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Our results indicate that the presence of CD47 associates with better OS independent of the mRNA expression. Interestingly, CD47 expression did not correlate with phagocytic activity and might not regulate macrophage phagocytosis in patients with MPM. Furthermore, the interaction of CD47 with VEGFR2 and ubiquilin-1 should be explored in further research due to its potential role in therapeutic options.

Anti-CD47 showed potent anti-tumor activity and synergized with PARPi in OC models. These data support clinical development of anti-CD47 therapy with PARPi in OC.

CD47 expression was not a predictive nor prognostic marker for MIBC patients. However, expression of CD47 was detected in nearly half of MIBCs, and future studies are needed to explore the potential role of anti-CD47 therapy in these patients. Furthermore, there was a slight positive trend in decreased CD47 levels (from TURBT to RC) in patients receiving NAC. As a result, more research is needed to understand how NAC may modify immune surveillance mechanisms in MIBC.

At the same time, β-lapachone within the nanoparticles generated large amounts of hydrogen peroxide in the tumor environment, which was then catalyzed by the copper sulfide nanozyme to cytotoxic hydroxyl radicals, exerting a chemodynamic therapeutic effect. This engineered biomimetic nanozyme, through the mediation of the ″don't eat me″ signal, achieved both photothermal and chemodynamic precision treatments of breast cancer, creating a new mode of safe and effective tumor treatment.

Our data suggest that OC patients with the highest CD47 expression profile at baseline have greatest lymphocyte influx post-NACT and may be most likely to benefit from post-operative immunotherapy. Whether blocking the immune-suppressive CD47:TSP1 interaction in this subset would provide an alternative strategy merits investigation. Clinical trial information: NCT01583322.

Tumor samples with high CD47 expression were mostly WHO types A and AB. This is the first study to explore CD47 expression in thymic cancers and lends support for ongoing investigation of anti-CD47 macrophage checkpoint inhibitor therapy in these tumors.

Such dynamic metabolic rewiring may play a key role in cancer therapy resistance and metastasis. Interestingly, data from our group and others have demonstrated that cancer cells can re-activate mitochondrial oxidative respiration to boost an annexing energy to meet the increasing cellular fuel demand for tumor cells surviving genotoxic anti-cancer therapy with metastatic potential.

This phase II study investigates magrolimab in combination with commonly used myeloma therapies in patients with relapsed/refractory MM and includes a safety run-in phase followed by a dose-expansion phase. Primary end points include the incidence of dose-limiting toxicities and adverse events (safety run-in) and the objective response rate (dose expansion).

Taken together, we reported a series of nanobody-derived CD47-targeted agents, of which &lsqb;Ga]Ga-NOTA-C2 and &lsqb;Zr]Zr-DFO-ABDC2 are readily translatable. Optimization and translation of CD47-targeted theranostic pair may provide new prospects for CD47-targeted management of solid tumors.

Here, we introduce antibody conjugated drug loaded nanotherapeutics (ADNs) consisting of a targeted therapy drug, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor PI103, and decorated with two ICIs for CD47 and PDL1...Reduced tumor growth and higher survival probability have been observed in the syngeneic LLC tumor model for anti-CD47-PDL1-ADN than monotherapy and traditional immunotherapy.In summary, we have introduced a lung cancer treatment strategy that can be an effective therapy for NSCLC patients, irrespective of the PDL1 expression level. The strategy combining bispecific immunotherapy and targeted therapy for activating the innate and adaptive immune systems and delivering targeted therapy drugs can emerge as a significant advance in the treatment of NSCLC patients.

In this work, for the first time, a biomimetic nanodrug named MPIRx was deveploped by loading IR780 (a sonosensitizer) and RRx-001 (a CD47 inhibitor) in PEG-PCL nanomicelles and then coating with OS cell membranes...Ultimately, MPIRx showed good tumor accumulation in vivo and successfully inhibited subcutaneous OS and orthotopic tumor with deterioration of pulmonary metastasis. Overall, by creating a local oxidative microenvironment and modulating the TAMs/CD47 in tumor tissue, the MPIRx nanodrug presents a novel strategy for macrophage-related immunotherapy to successfully eliminate OS and inhibit the intractable pulmonary metastasis.

We further show that CD47 expression is upregulated in livers harvested from mice treated with the DNA-damage inducing agent Diethylnitrosamine (DEN) and in cisplatin-treated mesothelioma tumors. Hence, our results indicate that CD47 is upregulated following DNA damage in a mre-11-dependent manner. Chronic DNA damage response in cancer cells might contribute to constitutive elevated expression of CD47 and promote immune evasion.

In addition, as 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu)-based chemotherapy is the cornerstone in GCLM treatment, we administered a combination of anti-CD47 antibodies and 5-Fu, which acted synergistically to suppress the tumor. Overall, we demonstrated that tumor-derived exosomes are involved in GCLM progression, targeting CD47 inhibits gastric cancer tumorigenesis, and a combination of anti-CD47 antibodies and 5-Fu shows potential for treating GCLM.

(SIRP?) to enhance phagocytosis of the tumor cells by tumor associated macrophages (TAMs). This versatile nanoplatform provides an efficient and low toxic strategy to inhibit epigenetic regulators and holds great potential in promoting immunotherapy.

Tumor-targeting vSIRPα may allow longer retention of LOX in tumor sites, effectively consuming surrounding lactate in TME and locally generating adequate amounts of cytotoxic HO to suppress tumor growth. The approach restraining the local lactate concentration and HO in TME using LOX and vSIRPα could offer new opportunities for developing enzyme/targeting ligand conjugate-based therapeutic tools for tumor treatment.

Our study illustrates that the development of a tumor-selective, pH-dependent anti-CD47 antibody safely confers strong therapeutic effects against solid tumors, thus providing a promising therapeutic strategy to overcome the challenges of anti-CD47 therapy.

Our findings suggest a link between CD47, tumor immune response, and blood vessel invasion (CD31 positive). Combined high expression of CD47-CD68 was an independent prognostic factor associated with poor prognosis in all cases, as well as in the luminal A category.
