AbstractAnti-HER2 antibody is molecular targeted antibody for cancer therapy. Approximately 20% of breast cancers are characterized by overexpression of HER2 protein. However, the recurrence rate was 30% and the metastasis rate was 18% one year after treatment of Anti-HER2 antibody for HER2 positive breast cancer. The resistance to antibody treatment is a major problem for patients. We previously reported that Anti-HER2 antibody and Gamma Interferon (IFN-γ) combined therapy showed higher anti-tumor effect than usual therapy in vitro and in vivo mouse experiments.In this study, we evaluated whether anti-HER2 antibody and IFN-γ combined therapy shows good synergistic effect against drug resistant HER2 positive breast cancer cells and higher antitumor effect than conventional clinical treatment. The resistant cell lines were made under the continuous presence of antibody until cell growth was not affected by the drug. We divided the resistant cells into the appropriate number of groups, which we and treated with anti-cancer therapy. We evaluated the antitumor effect for both in vitro study and in vivo mouse xenograft model prepared with the same immunogenicity. And we investigated the differences of immunofluorescence staining of CD8, Gr-1 and PDL-1 in tissues, especially related to immunity system.The combined therapy showed significantly higher anti-tumor effect than other groups in vitro and in vivo experiments. The combined therapy affects anti-tumor immunity in this immunofluorescence experiment. Taken together, we showed the possibility that combined therapy could be an effective treatment option for anti-HER2 antibody resistant breast cancer, helping patients suffering from cancer progression after developing treatment resistance.

We used a hydrogel-mediated dual drug delivery approach, based on an injectable glycol chitosan (GC) hydrogel, doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX⋅HCl), and a complex of beta-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and paclitaxel (PTX) (GDCP) for breast cancer therapy in vitro and in vivo. The hydrogel was swollen over 3 days and remained so thereafter. After an initial burst period of 7 hours, the two drugs were released in a sustained manner for 7 days. The in vitro cell viability test showed that GDCP had a better anticancer effect than well plate and DOX⋅HCl/PTX (DP). In addition, the in vivo tests, which evaluated the anticancer effect, systemic toxicity, and histology, proved the feasibility of GDCP as a clinical therapy for breast cancer.
