Abstract
Description
Preparation and use of liposome carriers for efficient vaccine delivery and liposome vaccines Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of drug delivery technology, and more specifically to a liposome carrier and a preparation method thereof, a liposome vaccine comprising the same and a preparation method thereof, as well as uses thereof. Background Art
[0002] Cancer is one of the most lethal diseases worldwide. While traditional surgical treatment, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy play a key role in cancer treatment, they are ineffective in preventing recurrence and metastasis. In addition to surgical treatment, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy have become important approaches to improve prognosis for cancer patients. However, 80% of cancer patients do not respond to immune checkpoint monoclonal antibody blockade, and the five-year survival rate is less than 20%.
[0003] In contrast, neoantigen vaccines, as a new generation of personalized, precision immunotherapy, are a cutting-edge research topic in both international and domestic immunotherapy. They effectively inhibit postoperative tumor growth, metastasis, and recurrence, and prolong survival in cancer patients. These vaccines are characterized by their unique presence in tumor tissue cells, not expressed in normal cells, and possess excellent tumor tissue cell specificity and low immune tolerance. Neoantigen peptide vaccines offer advantages such as ease of chemical modification, stability, ease of storage, multi-targeting, low toxicity and side effects, and a robust anti-tumor immune response.
[0004] However, analysis of clinical trial data from both domestic and international trials indicates that neoantigen vaccines remain inefficient in inducing immune responses, and their efficacy as therapeutic vaccines in inhibiting solid tumors remains suboptimal. Antigen presenting cells (APCs) are specialized cells that phagocytose, process, and present antigenic peptides to T cells. They recognize and ingest antigens through specific receptors, process them into peptide fragments that bind to MHC II molecules, and present them on the cell membrane, activating and stimulating the proliferation and differentiation of T lymphocytes, thereby initiating autoimmune responses. They are the most critical lymphocytes in initiating both autoimmune and cellular immune responses. Therefore, improving APC uptake of neoantigens, APC activation, and the regulation of their immune function are important approaches to enhancing antigen presentation efficiency and anti-tumor immune responses.
[0005] However, there is currently a lack of effective neoantigen vaccine delivery vectors in clinical practice, making it impossible to effectively co-deliver neoantigens and adjuvants to the same antigen-presenting cell. Subcutaneous injection of neoantigen vaccines is the main method used in clinical practice, which simply involves mixing neoantigen peptides with adjuvants. This method is unable to effectively deliver the scarce neoantigen peptides and adjuvants simultaneously to the same antigen-presenting cell. Furthermore, vaccines taken up through endocytosis are easily degraded by nucleases or proteases in lysosomes, further reducing the effective concentration of effector molecules (neoantigens and adjuvants), resulting in a weak anti-tumor immune response and poor tumor treatment efficacy.
[0006] Currently, due to their relatively stable physicochemical properties and relatively good biosafety, lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are widely used in industry as the encapsulation and delivery vehicles of choice for the GMP commercial production of vaccines and other drugs. Liposomes are generally composed of a lipid bilayer, typically containing phospholipids (such as lecithin), cholesterol, and PEGylated lipids. Liposomes are now widely used to deliver a variety of drugs and gene therapies, such as paclitaxel liposomes (Doxil) for the treatment of AIDS-related sarcomas and ovarian cancer. In addition, liposomal vaccines can be used to treat diseases such as Haemophilus influenzae, malaria, and hepatitis B vaccines through intramuscular injection, subcutaneous injection, and intranasal spray. Existing LNP formulations are prepared using precise molar ratios of ionizable cationic lipids (MC3, C12-200), zwitterionic lipids (DSPC), cholesterol, and lipid-anchored polyethylene glycol esters.
[0007] However, liposome vaccine carriers containing polyethylene glycol esters will produce PEG antibodies after vaccination, which can cause severe allergic reactions, including rash, sudden drop in blood pressure, rapid breathing and rapid heartbeat. In addition, the liposome carriers developed by Pfizer Pharmaceuticals for the delivery of new coronavirus vaccines mainly stimulate B cells to produce specific antiviral antibodies to prevent viral infection.
[0008] A liposomal formulation for the efficient delivery of neoantigen vaccines to antigen-presenting cells for personalized antitumor immunotherapy of solid tumors has not yet been developed. Summary of the Invention

[0108] 1. Construction of neoantigen vaccines
[0109] The immunogenicity of peptides or nucleic acids was tested in mice using ELISpot assays, and multiple neoantigen sequences were screened from Hepa 1–6 (mouse hepatoma cell line) or MC38 (mouse colorectal cancer cell line).
[0110] In the ELISpot assay, cells can locally produce cytokines after being stimulated by antigens. These cytokines are captured by specific monoclonal antibodies pre-fixed on the well plate. After cell lysis, the captured cytokines bind to the biotin-labeled secondary antibody and then to the avidin-labeled alkaline phosphatase. After incubation with the substrate BCIP / NBT, purple spots appear on the PVDF well plate, indicating that the corresponding cells have produced cytokines. Finally, the ELISpot analysis system counts the number of spots on the well plate to obtain the quantitative results of the Elispot assay.

[0197] The liposomes or liposomal vaccines of Example 1 of the present application were characterized by dynamic light scattering technology, and the results are shown in Figures 3A and 3B. Figures 3A and 3B respectively show the particle size and surface potential of the liposomes or liposomal vaccines of Example 1 of the present application. Figures 3A and 3B show that the liposomes or liposomal vaccines of Example 1 of the present application are uniformly distributed, with a particle size range of 20-300 nm and a positive charge of 30-40 mV.
[0198] Comprehensive cryo-electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering results show that the present application successfully synthesized a spherical, uniformly distributed, positively charged, and stable liposome vaccine with good water solubility.
[0199] 4. Uptake of liposomal vaccines by bone marrow-derived dendritic cells
[0200] The liposome vaccines of Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 were prepared with FAM-labeled neoantigen polypeptides and Cy5-labeled CHO-CpG-ODN. Immature mouse bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) were cultured at a rate of 5×10 5 The density of each well was inoculated in a 24-well plate and incubated for 12 h with the liposome vaccine of Example 1 or Comparative Example 1 or 2, respectively, and an equal volume of PBS buffer was used as the control group. The original culture medium was discarded and washed 3 times with PBS. Flow cytometry (BD) was used to quantitatively analyze the ratio of FAM-labeled neoantigen polypeptides and Cy5-labeled CHO-CpG-ODN double-positive antigen-presenting cells (i.e., the cellular uptake rate of liposome vaccine uptake by antigen-presenting cells). As shown in Figure 4, compared with Comparative Example 2, the liposome delivery vehicle of Example 1 efficiently delivers the neoantigen polypeptides and the adjuvant CHO-CpG-ODN to the same antigen-presenting cells, and the ratio of double-positive antigen-presenting cells is about 60 times higher than that of Comparative Example 2.
[0201] Liposome vaccines according to Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 were prepared and labeled with a Dil membrane fluorescent dye. Flow cytometry was used to quantify and analyze the Dil fluorescence intensity of dendritic cell uptake of the liposome vaccines. As shown in Figure 5 , compared to the liposome vaccine of Comparative Example 1, the liposome vaccine of Example 1 was more efficiently taken up by antigen-presenting cells, with an uptake efficiency approximately 64 times higher than that of Comparative Example 1.
[0202] It can be seen that compared with the neoantigen vaccine or mRNA vaccine in a simple mixed form, the liposome vaccine of the present application can more efficiently deliver the antigen into antigen-presenting cells, or co-deliver the antigen and adjuvant into antigen-presenting cells.
[0203] 5. Liposomal vaccines activate bone marrow-derived dendritic cells
[0204] Immature mouse bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) were cultured at a rate of 5×10 5 The cells were inoculated in a 24-well plate at a density of 100 cells / well and co-treated with the liposome vaccine of Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 2 or Example 1 for 48 hours. The cells were centrifuged (800 g, 5 min) and incubated with CD11c-APC, CD80-PE, and CD86-PE-Cy7 fluorescent antibodies in the dark for 30 minutes to label CD11c, CD80, and CD86 antigens. The cells were washed with PBS three times and the activation rate of the dendritic cells after incubation (surface CD11c + CD80 + CD86 + The results are shown in Figure 6.
[0205] CD11c is an adhesion protein primarily expressed on myeloid cells such as myelocytes, promyelocytes, metamyelocytes, and non-segmented and segmented neutrophils. It is also expressed on tissue macrophages, monocytes, NK cells, activated T cells, and lymphocytes. CD80 is a transmembrane protein belonging to the B7 family, primarily expressed on dendritic cells. It binds to the T cell surface receptors CD28 and CTLA-4 and participates in T cell activation. CD86, also known as B7-2, also belongs to the B7 family and is expressed on the surface of dendritic cells. It is a ligand for CD28 and CTLA-4, and binding to these two receptors can synergistically promote or inhibit T lymphocyte activation.
[0206] As shown in Figures 5-6, the liposome vaccine of Example 1 has a high delivery efficiency, enhances the immune stimulation of CD11c, CD80, and CD86, and promotes the maturation of dendritic cells. It can also be seen that compared with simple mixed neoantigen vaccines or mRNA vaccines, the liposome vaccine of the present application can more effectively stimulate the maturation of antigen-presenting cells.
