Irradiation can be an effective treatment for ovarian cancer, but its use is limited by intestinal toxicity. Thus, strategies to mitigate toxicity are important and can revitalize the current standard of care. We previously established that LR-IL-22 protects the intestine from WAI. We now hypothesize that LR-IFN-β is an effective radiation protector and mitigator and is rapidly cleared from the digestive tract, making it an option for intestinal radioprotection. We report that the gavage of LR-IFN-β during WAI provides improved intestinal barrier integrity and significantly preserves the numbers of Lgr5+GFP+ intestinal stem cells, improving survival. The rapid clearance of the genetically engineered probiotic from the digestive tract renders it a safe and feasible radiation mitigator. Therefore, the above genetically engineered probiotic is both a feasible and effective radiation mitigator that could potentially revolutionize the management of OC patients. Furthermore, the subsequent addition of platinum/taxane-based chemotherapy to the combination of WAI and LR-IFN-β should reduce tumor volume while protecting the intestine and should improve the overall survival in OC patients. |
