- W2017973559 abstract "Photodynamic therapy for cancer depends on the relatively selective distribution of photosensitizing agents to malignant as compared with normal tissues, rendering the malignant cells more susceptible to light-mediated damage. Photodynamic therapy has been used with only moderate success to date. The purpose of this study was to compare a new photosensitizing agent, benzoporphyrin derivative (BPD), to the standard agent presently in use, photofrin II, in a hamster cheek pouch model of squamous cell carcinoma. As well we have investigated the potential of using a tumour-specific monoclonal antibody-BPD conjugate to improve the tumour localizing properties of BPD. Treatment consisted of photodynamic therapy with either photofrin II, BPD, or a tumour-specific anti-epidermal growth factor receptor-BPD conjugate. Control groups of light alone, anti-EGFr, tumour non-specific MoAb, and tumour non-specific MoAb-BPD conjugate were included with the contralateral cheek pouch of each animal acting as a dark control. An assessment of differential delivery of BPD to tumour and to normal mucosa was undertaken using a spectrophotometric assay. Parametric statistical analysis included Student's t-tests and linear regression while non-parametric analysis was undertaken using Fisher's exact test. Animals receiving BPD alone demonstrated tumour-to-tissue levels of approximately 2:1 while animals receiving the tumour-specific anti-EGFr-BPD conjugate had significantly better tumour:tissue ratios of 26:1 (P < 0.005). Animals treated with photofrin II had a 1 month cancer-free survival of 27% while animals treated with BPD had an improved survival of 67% (P = 0.03). The group treated with the tumour-specific anti-EGFr-BPD conjugate at a twentieth the total dose of BPD had an 80% 1 month cancer-free survival which was not statistically different from the group treated with BPD alone. Benzoporphyrin appears to be a more effective photosensitizing agent than Photofrin II and its tumour selectivity can be improved using a tumour specific monoclonal antibody conjugate." @default.
