Abstract
Chemokines such as C-C motif ligand 5 (CCL5) regulate immune cell trafficking in the tumor microenvironment (TME) and govern tumor development, making them promising targets for cancer therapy. However, short half-lives and toxic off-target effects limit their application. Oncolytic viruses (OVs) have become attractive therapeutic agents. Here, we generate an oncolytic herpes simplex virus type 1 (oHSV) expressing a secretable single-chain variable fragment of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) antibody cetuximab linked to CCL5 by an Fc knob-into-hole strategy that produces heterodimers (OV-Cmab-CCL5). OV-Cmab-CCL5 permits continuous production of CCL5 in the TME, as it is redirected to EGFR+ glioblastoma (GBM) tumor cells. OV-Cmab-CCL5 infection of GBM significantly enhances the migration and activation of natural killer cells, macrophages and T cells; inhibits tumor EGFR signaling; reduces tumor size; and prolongs survival of GBM-bearing mice. Collectively, our data demonstrate that OV-Cmab-CCL5 offers a promising approach to improve OV therapy for solid tumors.
