项目摘要

Abstract Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounts for approximately 15-20% of breast cancers and is the most aggressive subtype of breast cancer. Given little efficacy for existing therapeutic regimens against a significant number of TNBC patients and continuously developed resistance of TNBC cells to chemotherapy, novel treatment strategies with significantly enhanced potency and safety are still urgently required to address unmet medical needs. Exosomes are natural membranous vesicles secreted by many types of cells and possess many important and invaluable features for drug development. By harnessing these unique biological and pharmacological properties of exosomes, we are aimed to develop innovative synthetic exosomes as a highly potent form of therapeutics with excellent safety profiles for treatment of TNBC. Aim 1 will be design, generation, and characterization of engineered exosomes that can potently activate TNBC-specific antitumor immunity. Aim 2 will be creation and evaluation of reprogrammed exosomes that can specifically induce immune responses toward TNBC tumors. Aim 3 will be elucidation of mechanism(s) of action for identified lead immunotherapeutic exosomes. Successful completion of this project will result in a new class of immunotherapeutics with excellent pharmacological properties, leading to rapid translation into clinical applications and a paradigm shift in TNBC therapy.

抽象的三阴性乳腺癌 (TNBC) 约占乳腺癌的 15-20%，是最常见的乳腺癌。乳腺癌的侵袭性亚型。鉴于现有治疗方案对显着的治疗效果甚微 TNBC 患者数量不断增加，并且 TNBC 细胞对化疗不断产生耐药性，新的仍然迫切需要显着增强效力和安全性的治疗策略来解决未满足的问题医疗需求。外泌体是多种细胞分泌的天然膜囊泡，具有多种功能。对于药物开发来说是重要且无价的特征。通过利用这些独特的生物和外泌体的药理学特性，我们的目标是开发创新的合成外泌体作为高度用于治疗 TNBC 的有效治疗方法，具有出色的安全性。目标 1 将是设计、生成、以及可以有效激活 TNBC 特异性抗肿瘤免疫的工程外泌体的表征。目的 2 将创建和评估可以特异性诱导免疫反应的重编程外泌体针对 TNBC 肿瘤。目标 3 将阐明已确定的先导免疫疗法的作用机制外泌体。该项目的成功完成将产生一类具有优异疗效的新型免疫治疗药物药理学特性，导致快速转化为临床应用和 TNBC 的范式转变治疗。
