الوصف: Clostridium novyi has demonstrated selective efficacy against solid tumors largely due to the microenvironment contained within dense tumor cores. The core of a solid tumor is typically hypoxic, acidic, and necrotic—impeding the penetration of current therapeutics. C . novyi is attracted to the tumor microenvironment and once there, can both lyse and proliferate while simultaneously re-activating the suppressed immune system. C . novyi systemic toxicity is easily mitigated by knocking out the phage DNA plasmid encoded alpha toxin resulting in C . novyi -NT; but, after intravenous injection spores are quickly cleared by phagocytosis before accomplishing significant tumor localization. C . novyi -NT could be designed to accomplish intravenous delivery with the potential to target all solid tumors and their metastases in a single dose. This study characterizes CRISPR/Cas9 modified C . novyi- NT to insert the gene for RGD, a tumor targeting peptide, expressed within the promoter region of a spore coat protein. Expression of the RGD peptide on the outer spore coat of C . novyi- NT indicates an increased capacity for tumor localization of C . novyi upon intravenous introduction based on the natural binding of RGD with the α v β 3 integrin commonly overexpressed on the epithelial tissue surrounding a tumor, and lead to immune stimulation.
