BACKGROUND: Antibody-mediated blockade of innate receptor-MHC-I interactions represents a promising strategy to enhance anti-tumor immunity, particularly against metastatic cancers resistant to conventional checkpoint inhibitors. In this study, we investigated the effects of the pan anti-MHC-I monoclonal antibody M1/42, which targets MHC-I interactions with Ly49, selectively expressed on murine NK cell subsets.
METHODS: We administered M1/42 to mice and assayed the proliferation and activation immune cells. Anti-tumor activity of growth and metastasis of checkpoint inhibitor-resistant pancreatic ductal adenocarcoma (PDAC) and B16F10 melanoma were assessed, complemented by extensive cellular phenotypic and RNA expression analysis. Binding and cryo-electron microscopic (cryo-EM) and X-ray crystallographic structural studies of M1/42 complexed with the mouse MHC-I molecule, H2-Dd, examined the Ab interaction site in comparison with those of Ly49 inhibitory receptors.
RESULTS: M1/42 administration in mice robustly unleashed the proliferation and activation of natural killer (NK) cells, memory CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, dendritic cells, and macrophages in both lymphoid and non-lymphoid tissues, independent of Fcγ receptors. M1/42 significantly restricted the growth and metastasis of checkpoint inhibitor-resistant pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and B16F10 melanoma in the liver and lungs, accompanied by increased tumor infiltration of effector CD8+ T cells, reduction of T regulatory cells, and a pro-inflammatory cytokine milieu. The anti-tumor effects of M1/42 depend on NK cells and are associated with upregulation of genes involved in antigen processing, interferon gamma responsiveness, and Th1 cytokine production, while downregulating inhibitory PD1/11 signaling. Structural analysis indicated that the effect of M1/42 on Ly49/MHC-I interactions was not due to direct steric competition.
CONCLUSIONS: Collectively, these findings demonstrate that M1/42 unleashes coordinated innate and adaptive immune responses, overcoming tumor-induced immunosuppression and resistance to checkpoint blockade. This approach represents a paradigm shift in cancer immunotherapy, offering potential for more effective treatment of metastatic cancers that evade immune surveillance through MHC-I modulation.
