Abstract

Continuous efforts are dedicated to develop immunotherapeutic approaches to neuroblastoma (NB), a tumor that relapses at high rates following high-dose conventional cytotoxic therapy and autologous bone marrow cell (BMC) reconstitution. This study presents a series of transplant experiments aiming to evaluate the efficacy of allogeneic BMC transplantation. Neuro-2a cells were found to express low levels of class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC) antigens. While radiation and syngeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) reduced tumor growth (P < 0.001), allogeneic BMT further impaired subcutaneous development of Neuro-2a cells (P < 0.001). Allogeneic donor-derived T cells displayed direct cytotoxic activity against Neuro-2a in vitro, a mechanism of immune-mediated suppression of tumor growth. The proliferation of lymphocytes from congenic mice bearing subcutaneous tumors was inhibited by tumor lysate, suggesting that a soluble factor suppresses cytotoxic activity of syngeneic lymphocytes. However, the growth of Neuro-2a cells was impaired when implanted into chimeric mice at various times after syngeneic and allogeneic BMT. F1 (donor-host) splenocytes were infused attempting to foster immune reconstitution, however they engrafted transiently and had no effect on tumor growth. Taken together, these data indicate: (1) Neuro-2a cells express MHC antigens and immunogenic tumor associated antigens. (2) Allogeneic BMT is a significantly better platform to develop graft versus tumor (GVT) immunotherapy to NB as compared to syngeneic (autologous) immuno-hematopoietic reconstitution. (3) An effective GVT reaction in tumor bearing mice is primed by MHC disparity and targets tumor associated antigens.
