Abstrakt: | The fertilized chicken egg chorioallantoic membrane (CAM), a highly vascularized membrane nourishing the developing embryo, also supports rapid growth of three-dimensional vascularized tumors from engrafted cells and tumor explants. Because murine xenograft models suffer limitations of time, cost, and scalability, we propose CAM tumors as a rapid, efficient screening tool for assessing anti-tumor efficacy of chimeric Ag receptor (CAR) T cells against solid tumors. We tested the efficacy of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-specific CAR T cells against luminescent, HER2-expressing (FaDu, SCC-47) or HER2-negative (MDA-MB-468) CAM-engrafted tumors. Three days after tumor engraftment, HER2-specific CAR T cells were applied to tumors grown on the CAM. Four days post-CAR T cell treatment, HER2-expressing FaDu and SCC-47 tumors treated with CAR T showed reduced viable cancer cells as assessed by luciferase activity. This reduction in viable tumor cells was confirmed by histology, with lower Ki-67 staining observed in CAR T cell-treated tumors relative to T cell-treated controls. Persistence of CAR T in CAM and tumor tissue 4 days post-treatment was confirmed by CD3 staining. Altogether, our findings support further development of the chick CAM as an in vivo system for rapid, scalable screening of CAR T cell efficacy against human solid tumors.
