Abstract
Selective in vivo immune cell manipulation offers a promising strategy for cancer vaccines. In this context, spatiotemporal control over recruitment of specific cells, and their direct exposure to appropriate immunoadjuvants and antigens are key to effective cancer vaccines. We present an implantable 3D-printed cancer vaccine platform called the ‘NanoLymph’ that enables spatiotemporally-controlled recruitment and manipulation of immune cells in a subcutaneous site. Leveraging two reservoirs each for continuous immunoadjuvant release or antigen presentation, the NanoLymph attracts dendritic cells (DCs) on site and exposes them to tumor-associated antigens. Upon local antigen-specific activation, DCs are mobilized to initiate a systemic immune response. NanoLymph releasing granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor and CpG-oligodeoxynucleotides with irradiated whole cell tumor lysate inhibited tumor growth of B16F10 murine melanoma in a prophylactic and therapeutic vaccine setting. Overall, this study presents the NanoLymph as a versatile cancer vaccine development platform with replenishable and controlled local release of antigens and immunoadjuvants.
