Abstrakt: Simple Summary: The development of pleural effusion is a common debilitating occurrence during metastasized breast cancer. Malignant cells in pleural effusions originating from the primary tumor suggest the spread of the disease and can serve as a model for metastatic breast cancer. Hence, we established three-dimensional organoid lines from four patients with malignant pleural effusion. Patient-derived organoids were characterized by flow cytometry for individual target antigen expression profiles. Adapter CAR-T cells (AdCAR-T) and biotinylated monoclonal antibodies were evaluated to specifically target patient-derived organoids and assess responses in a personalized fashion. This study demonstrates the feasibility of precision immunotherapy utilizing AdCAR-T to target patient-individualized antigen patterns. A frequent symptom of metastasized breast cancer (BC) includes the development of malignant pleural effusion (MPE), which contains malignant cells derived from the primary tumor site. The poor prognosis of MPE in metastasized BC indicates the necessity for dependable precision oncology and the importance of models representing the heterogenous nature of metastatic BC. In this study, we cultured MPE-derived metastatic tumor cells from four advanced BC patients using organoid technology. We assessed the expression of tumor-associated antigens on MPE-derived organoid lines by flow cytometry (FC). Based on an individual antigen expression pattern, patient-derived organoids were treated with adapter CAR-T cells (AdCAR-T) and biotinylated monoclonal antibodies targeting CD276, HER2, EGFR, TROP2, or EpCAM. Co-culture assays revealed specific organoid lysis by AdCAR-T depending on individual antigen expression patterns. Our results demonstrate that MPE-derived organoids can serve as a reliable tool for assessing the efficacy of AdCAR-T on metastatic BC in a patient-individualized manner. This approach could potentially be applied in a preclinical setting to instruct therapy decisions. Further, our study demonstrates the feasibility of precision immunotherapy utilizing AdCAR-T to target patient-individualized antigen patterns. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
