Camptothesome is an innovative nanovesicle therapeutic comprising the sphingomyelin-derived camptothecin (CPT) lipid bilayer. In this work, we deciphered that Camptothesome was taken up by colorectal cancer (CRC) cells through primarily the clathrin-mediated endocytotic pathway and displayed the potential of eliciting robust immunogenic cancer cell death (ICD) via upregulating calreticulin, high mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB-1), and adenosine triphosphate (ATP), three hallmarks involved in the induction of ICD. In addition, use of dying MC38 tumor cells treated with Camptothesome as vaccine prevented tumor growth in 60% mice that received subsequent injection of live MC38 cells on the contralateral flank, validating Camptothesome was a legitimate ICD inducer in vivo. Camptothesome markedly reduced the acute bone marrow toxicity and gastrointestinal mucositis associated with free CPT and beat free CPT and Onivyde on anti-CRC efficacy and immune responses in a partially interferon gamma (IFN-γ)-dependent manner. Furthermore, Camptothesome enhanced the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors to shrink late-stage orthotopic MC38 CRC tumors with diminished tumor metastasis and markedly prolonged mice survival.
