Elotuzumab Can Costimulate Nk Cell Responses By Engaging Slamf7
CANCER RESEARCH(2017)
摘要
Elotuzumab (Elo) is an IgG 1 monoclonal antibody targeting SLAMF7 (CS1, CRACC, CD319) protein, which is highly and uniformly expressed on multiple myeloma cells. Improved survival has been observed in multiple myeloma patients treated with Elo in combination with immunomodulatory drugs such as dexamethasone and lenalidomide. Previous work showed that the main mechanism of Elo action in vitro is CD16-mediated antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) via Fc interaction with CD16 (FcγRIIIa) receptor on NK cells. However, SLAMF7 is also expressed on NK cells where it transmits an activating signal. We hypothesized that Elo can directly activate NK cells via SLAMF7 ligation. Utilizing non-fucosylated Elo that has higher affinity to CD16 and Elo mutant that has an Fc region mutation that abrogates binding to CD16, we confirmed that Elo promotes NK cell activation and degranulation in a CD16-dependent manner. Specifically, non-fucosylated Elo had higher potency, whereas Elo mutant did not stimulate degranulation or CD69 expression. To test for co-stimulatory effects of Elo and Elo mutant we measured calcium signaling responses triggered by those antibodies in combination with antibodies to engage the activating receptors NKp46 and NKG2D. Elo or Elo mut alone had no effect on calcium signaling, but when added in combination with multimeric engagement of NKp46 and NKG2D both antibodies co-stimulated calcium signaling responses. We conclude that Elo stimulates NK cells via interaction with CD16, but direct engagement with SLAMF7 can also transduce co-activating signals to potentiate calcium signals generated through NKp46 and NKG2D in a CD16-independent manner. Our results provide evidence that direct engagement with SLAMF7 by Elo has the potential to reduce the threshold of NK cell activation triggered through other activating receptors.
