ABSTRACT
Cluster of differentiation 99 (CD99) is a receptor that is significantly upregulated in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 internal tandem duplication mutation in AML (FLT3-ITD AML) exhibits even higher levels of CD99 expression. Our group previously employed a novel peptide platform technology called elastin-like polypeptides and fused it with single-chain antibodies capable of binding to FLT3 (FLT3-A192) or CD99 (CD99-A192). Targeting either FLT3 or CD99 using FLT3-A192 or CD99-A192 led to AML cell death and reduced leukemia burden in AML mouse models. Here, we report on the development of a novel Co-Assembled construct that is capable of binding to both CD99 and FLT3 and the antileukemia activity of the bispecific construct in FLT3-ITD AML preclinical models. This dual-targeting Co-Assembled formulation exhibits cytotoxic effects on AML cells (AML cell lines and primary blasts) and reduced leukemia burden and prolonged survival in FLT3-ITD AML mouse models. Altogether, this study demonstrates the potential of an innovative therapeutic strategy that targets both FLT3 and CD99 in FLT3-ITD AML. SIGNIFICANCE:
This study investigates a dual-targeting strategy in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), focusing on FLT3 and CD99. The approach demonstrates enhanced therapeutic potential, presenting a novel option for AML treatment.
