[0235] Generation of pancreatic cancer mice expressing human MUC1
[0236] A strategy for generating 3 transgenic mouse lines expressing human MUC1 and developing pancreatic cancer is described in image 3 . Briefly, P48Cre / + mice expressing Cre recombinase throughout the developing and mature pancreas (Kawaguchi et al., 2002) were bred to LSL-KrasG12D / + mice, which contain the non-transcriptionally active K-rasG12D allele, It is activated in cells expressing Cre (Jackson et al., 2001; Kawaguchi et al., 2002). Their P48Cre / + and LSL-KrasG12D / + positive offspring (referred to as "PDA mice") were paired with a transgenic mouse line (MUC1.Tg) carrying the human MUC1 transgene and remaining heterozygous (see image 3 ). MUCl.Tg mice express human MUCl, exhibit tolerance to the B and T cell compartments, and are refractory to immunization with the protein encoded by the transgene (Rowse et al., 1998). Since the human MUCl transgene is driven by its own promoter in this mouse, i...

[0242] FACS sorting of tumor cells
[0243] The TAB-004 antibody was tested on different samples to confirm its ability to bind and sort tumor cells present in different environments and under different conditions using fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS).
[0244] In the first experiment, TAB-004 antibody was used to stain cell populations purified from CD133+ and CD24+ / CD44+ / EpCAM+ cells. Parts from pancreatic cancer were mechanically homogenized and digested with collagenase IV and DNase for 30 min at 37 °C. Whole blood and single cell suspensions from tumors can be subject to lineage cell depletion using the lineage cell depletion kit (Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany, Cat. No. 130-092-211), thereby removing the expression of Cells for lineage antigens: CD2, CD3, CD11b, CD14, CD15, CD16, CD19, CD56, CD123 and CD235a. Lineage-negative (lin–) cells from whole blood samples or tumor samples from patients with pancreatic cancer were then screened for MUC1-e...

[0252] Generation of TAB-004 conjugates
[0253] The TAB-004 antibody of the subject matter disclosed herein is conjugated to 1-methyl-DL-tryptophan (1MT), an indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) inhibitor; EP2 / EP4 receptor antagonist and CpG oligodeoxynucleotides (CpG ODN), which function as dendritic cell activating agents (Rothenfusser et al., 2002). Functional data for the TAB-004 antibody conjugated to a CpG ODN is provided here as a non-limiting example of the function of the antibodies and conjugates of the subject matter disclosed herein.
[0254] The TAB-004 antibody alone or conjugated to a CpG ODN binds to a tumor cell line generated from 3 transgenic PDA.MUC1.Tg mice (referred to herein as the "KCM" cell line; see image 3 ). Although applicants do not wish to be bound by any particular theory of operation, it appears that antibodies that activate natural killer cells (NK cells) and conjugate to CpG ODN can further enhance the lytic activity of NK cells to their tar...
