Popis: Background: Ewing’s sarcoma (ES) is a recalcitrant disease in need of transformative therapeutics. Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of tumor-selective Salmonella typhimurium A1-R combined with tumor metabolism targeting with oral administration of recombinant methioninase (o-rMETase), on an ES patient-derived orthotopic xenograft (PDOX) model. Methods: The ES PDOX models were previously established in the right chest wall. The ES PDOX models were randomized into 5 groups when the tumor volume reached 80 mm3: G1: untreated control; G2: doxorubicin; G3: S. typhimurium A1-R; G4: o-rMETase; G5: S. typhimurium A1-R combined with o-rMETase. All mice were sacrificed on day 15. Body weight and tumor volume were assessed twice a week. Results: S. typhimurium A1-R and o-rMETase respectively suppressed tumor growth as monotherapies (p = 0.050 and p = 0.032). S. typhimurium A1-R combined with o-rMETase regressed tumor growth significantly compared to untreated group on day 15 (p < 0.032). S. typhimurium A1-R combined with o-rMETase group was significantly more effective than S. typhimurium A1-R or o-rMETase monotherapy (p = 0.032, p = 0.032). Conclusions: The present results suggest that the combination of S. typhimurium A1-R and o-rMETase has promise to be a transformative therapy for ES.
