Abstract

Interleukin-6 (IL-6) plays a central role in the pathogenesis of several autoimmune and inflammatory diseases as well as B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders. This work describes the effects of the recombinant or adenovirally-delivered IL-6 superantagonist Sant7, anti-IL-6 and IL-6 receptor monoclonal antibodies in a severe murine model of human B-cell lymphoma induced in SCID mice by transplantation of an LCL-41 cell line variant (isotype-switched IgMOIgG). Survival of 60% of the animals treated with anti-gp130 was observed up to day 33, while about 20% of the animals survived with anti-gp80 and Sant7 treatment. No survival was observed with the anti-IL-6 monoclonal antibody treatment. No significant change in serum and peritoneal levels of human IL-6 (hIL-6) and soluble human IL-6 receptor (shIL-6R) was observed in the recombinant Sant7-treated group towards the control group. The anti-gp80 monoclonal antibody induced significant increase of both hIL-6R and hIL-6 in serum and peritoneum. The anti-gp130 monoclonal antibody treatment determined a reduction of the seric shIL-6R and a significant increase of the seric hIL-6. Anti-IL-6 monoclonal antibody administration resulted in a reduction of serum and in an increase of peritoneal hIL-6. Treatment with adenoviral Sant7 was associated with a reduction of circulating shIL-6R, hIgG and mSAP. However, only marginal anti-tumor efficacy of the adenoviral Sant7 was observed. Overall, the present data suggest a potential for anti-hIL-6 therapy in B-cell lymphomas. Less severe animal models might be useful to better evaluate Sant7 efficacy alone or in combination with other anti-IL-6 therapeutics.
