- W2326416867 abstract "Prostate cancer (PC) is the most common type of cancer in males and the second leading cause of male cancer deaths in the United States. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are commonly found in the blood of patients suffering from mestatic disease and the capture of these cells is important in the study of disease progression. Existing devices use the EpCAM antibody which can capture circulating epithelial cancer cells, but also leads to a large number of leukocyte contamination. We have developed a microfluidic chip functionalized with an antibody to the prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), which captures prostate CTCs with high purity and efficiency. This chip is designed with a staggered obstacle array that maximizes the CTC-wall interactions while minimizing the interactions with the other cells in the blood. PSMA-positive or -negative PC cells were spiked into blood from healthy donors, and we calculated capture rates to be ∼80%. Next, blood samples from patients (n = 20) with castrate resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) were run through the device and CTCs were captured and enumerated. CTCs were found in 90% of samples tested with the number captured averaging 27 ± 4 cells per mL of blood with a capture purity of 62 ± 2%. We plan to use this device to elucidate the molecular basis of CRPC clinical response to taxane treatment, which is the only class of chemotherapy drugs shown to improve survival in this type of PC. Previous data from our laboratory has shown that taxane treatment of PC cells inhibits the ligand-induced androgen receptor (AR) nuclear accumulation and transcriptional activation of androgen response element (ARE) containing genes including the prostate-specific antigen (PSA). These results implicate microtubules (MTs) in AR trafficking and suggest that the clinical activity of taxanes in CRPC may be mediated in part by the drugs’ ability to stabilize MTs and inhibit AR transcriptional activity. We plan to capture CTCs using the PSMA-specific microfluidic device from CRPC patients receiving taxane treatment and analyze them for AR subcellular distribution and correlate clinical response to taxane treatment. Our microfluidic device is a novel, specific, and improved technology to capture prostate CTCs that will allow us to better define the molecular basis of taxane treatment in CRPC patients.Citation Format: {Authors}. {Abstract title} [abstract].
