Abstract

For the therapy of solid tumors, co-administration of angiotensin II (AngII) results in an increased uptake of drugs into the tumor interstitium. We have engineered a dimeric sc(Fv)₂-AngII fusion construct that combines the superior kinetics of covalent dimeric scFvs [sc(Fv)₂], recognizing the pancarcinoma tumor-associated antigen 72 (TAG-72), with the advantageous intrinsic activity of AngII. The binding characteristics of the fusion construct were unaltered by the addition of the AngII sequence [affinity constant K_A 1.18 × 10⁷ and 8.42 × 10 ⁶ M^-1 for sc(Fv)₂ and sc(Fv)₂-AngII, respectively]. The binding of the fusion construct to the angiotensin receptor (AT₁) was similar to AngII, and the arterial contraction was 16 ± 1% of the response observed with norepinephrine. In animal studies, the radiolabeled sc(Fv)₂-AngII construct exhibited similar uptake and a more homogeneous distribution within the tumor as compared to sc(Fv) ₂.
