In this study, using a random peptide phage- displayed library we have identified a novel12-mer peptide from a NPC cell line that has met several criteria for targeted drug delivery intoNPC. In vitro this peptide can bind specifically to the cell surfaces of most NPC cell lines and somebiopsy specimens; the peptide-linked liposome containing fluorescent substance is capable ofbinding to and translocation across cell membranes; in vivo, this specific peptide is able to bind andaccumulate in the xenograft in SCID mice, but not in normal organs; similarly, the L-peptide-linkedliposome carried doxorubicin (L-P-Lipo-Dox) not only causes marked cytotoxicity of NPC cells invitro, in vivo, it also suppresses markedly the xenograft growth (suppress more than 80-88%tumor size) in SCID mice without systemic side effect. These findings suggest that the novelpeptide-targeted chemotherapy has a great potential for diagnostic imaging and targeted therapy ofNPC, while minimizing systemic side effects. These results have been published in CancerResearch journal (2004) and a patent has been obtained from Taiwan and U.S.A. To pave the wayfor clinical application, the PI has been collaborating with several investigators of diverse expertise(including a drug company) on 3 different inter-related aspects which form the basis for a programproject.This program project will be ended in the near future.In our previous other experiment to identify the specific peptide binding to other cancer cells,we also found that the binding LPY domain in the L-peptide also presented in the other high affinitybinding phage clone specific to other cancer cells. Therefore, in the present grant proposal in thesubproject IV, the major effort will focus on the verification of the efficacy of L-P-Lipo-Dox fortreatment of hepatoma and pancreatic cancer including an observation of the localization of itstargeted protein in their surgical specimens, and of investigation of the possibility to use MRI toanalyze the tumor cell image in the xenografts in SCID mice. Since we have also identified anotherspecific peptide SP94 which can bind hepatoma cells, and in one of our collaborator subproject III(Dr. Yu) who used computer analysis of the target protein structure had identified an optimizedL-peptide sequence (p13) which has higher binding activity than that of the original L-peptide,therefore, in this subproject IV, the PI will also include the optimized L-peptide (p13) and thehepatoma specific SP94 peptide to investigate and compare their activity with L-peptide in theabove mentioned 3 aspects: localization of target proteins in the surgical tissue, efficacy of cancertreatment and MRI analysis of tumor image in vivo.It is hopefully that results from this preclinical research can push this research project into phase Iclinical trial after 3 years.肝癌胰臟癌L-胜肽標的療法L-胜肽之核磁共振影像分析微脂體化療藥物DoxorubicinL-胜肽的修飾型胜肽之標的療效肝癌特殊胜肽之標的療效表L-胜肽組織化學法.Preclinical Verification of the Efficacy of Targeting Peptides for Therapy of Hepatoma and Pancreatic Cancer (I)
