TNFerade is a radioinducible adenoviral vector expressing tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) (Ad.Egr-TNF) currently in a phase III trial for inoperable pancreatic cancer. We studied B16-F1 melanoma tumors in TNF receptor wild-type (C57BL/6) and deficient (TNFR1,2-/- and TNFR1-/-) mice. Ad.Egr-TNF+IR inhibited tumor growth compared with IR in C57BL/6 but not in receptor-deficient mice. Tumors resistant to TNF-alpha were also sensitive to Ad.Egr-TNF+IR in C57BL/6 mice. Ad.Egr-TNF+IR produced an increase in tumor-associated endothelial cell apoptosis not observed in receptor-deficient animals. Also, B16-F1 tumors in mice with germline deletions of TNFR1,2, TNFR1 or TNF-alpha, or in mice receiving anti-TNF-alpha exhibited radiosensitivity. These results show that tumor-associated endothelium is the principal target for Ad.Egr-TNF radiosensitization and implicate TNF-alpha signaling in tumor radiosensitivity.
