P07.06.A PATIENT-DERIVED GLIOBLASTOMA MINIATURE AND CANCER STEM CELL SUICIDE-INDUCING NANO-AWAKENER BASED ON IT

Abstract

Abstract BACKGROUND Patient-specific anti-tumor therapies can evolve by vitalizing the mother tissue-like cancer niche, cellular profile, genetic signature, and drug responsiveness. This evolution elucidated a key mechanism along with the development of the cancer therapy. The present study aimed to meet these clinical demands by approaching the direct culture of GBM patient tissues with a 1 mm post-punching diameter in a 3D microchannel network chip (“GBM miniature”). MATERIAL AND METHODS Hence, we directly cultured of GBM patient tissue (1 mm diameter) in a microchannel network chip (GBM miniature) to preserve mother tissue-like characteristic signatures and microenvironment. When chemoradiation therapy were administered within 1 day, the responsiveness of the tissue in the chip mirroring the clinical outcomes. The characteristics of migrating cells from GBM miniature were analyzed, and peptides that target these migrating CSCs were searched for. And, by attaching this CSC peptide to the nanovesicle, the therapeutic effect was confirmed in GBM miniature. RESULTS Upon testing within 1 day, the tissue chip reflected patient drug responsiveness as seen in the clinic. As the tissue chip culture was continued, the intact GBM signature was getting lost, and the outward migration of stem cells from the tissue origin increased, indicating a leaving-home effect on the family dismantle. Nanovesicle production using GBM stem cells enabled self-chasing of the cells that escaped the temozolomide effect owing to quiescence. The anti-PTPRZ1 peptide display and temozolomide loading to nanovesicles awaked stem cells from the quiescent stage to death. CONCLUSION This research proposes a GBM patient avatar platform and mechanism-learned nanotherapy for translation.
