Popis: Purpose: Supratentorial primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET) accounts for 2-3% of all pediatric brain tumors. Despite multimodality therapies, the clinical outcome remains poor, and the 5-year progression free survival rate is less than 40%. Clinically relevant animal models are needed for understanding tumor biology and developing more effective therapies. Here we report our recent development of a clinically relevant animal model, isolation and characterization of cancer stem-like cells in the xenograft tumors, and preclinical investigation of the antitumor efficacy of a novel picorna oncolytic virus Seneca Valley Virus-001 (SVV-001) both in vitro and vivo, especially in cancer stem-like cells. Experimental Design: Orthotopic xenograft mouse model was developed by direct injection of 105 tumor cells from a freshly resected brain PNET tumor specimen into the right cerebrum of Rag2/severe combined immunodeficient mice. CD133+ cells were quantitatively analyzed and isolated with FACS using human-specific antibodies against CD133. Antitumor activity of SVV-001was evaluated in vitro in cultured xenograft tumor cells and in vivo in mice bearing pre-formed xenograft tumors. Results: A novel transplantable PNET xenograft model IC-2664PNT was established. The xenograft tumors not only replicate the biologic phenotypes but also preserve cancer stem-like cell pools. The IC-2664PNET neurospheres, which expressed high levels of CD133 and nestin, were efficiently infected and killed by SVV-001 (0.5-25 virus particle/ cell). A single tail vein injection of SVV-001 (5×1012 virus particle/kg) prolonged survival time of PNET xenograft model. Conclusions: We have established the first clinically relevant animal model for childhood supratentorial PNET. It replicated the major histopathological features of the original patient tumor, and preserved a CD133+ stem cells pool during serial subtransplantations. SVV-001 has potent antitumor efficacy in PNET, especially selectively kill cancer stem-like cells, and prolong survival in vivo. Citation Format: {Authors}. {Abstract title} [abstract].
