Undifferentiated monocytes can be loaded with tumor antigens (Ag) and administered intravenously to induce antitumor cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses. This vaccination strategy exploits an endogenous Ag cross-presentation pathway, where Ag-loaded monocytes (monocyte vaccines) transfer their Ag to resident splenic dendritic cells (DC), which then stimulate robust CD8 + CTL responses. In this study, we investigated whether monocyte vaccination in combination with CDX-301, a DC-expanding cytokine Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 ligand (Flt3L), could improve the antitumor efficacy of anti-programmed cell death (anti-PD-1) immune checkpoint blockade. We found that Flt3L expanded splenic DC over 40-fold in vivo and doubled the number of circulating Ag-specific T cells when administered before monocyte vaccination in C57BL/6 mice. In addition, OVA-monocyte vaccination combined with either anti-PD-1, anti-programmed cell death ligand 1 (anti-PD-L1), or anti-cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (anti-CTLA-4) suppressed subcutaneous B16/F10-OVA tumor growth to a greater extent than checkpoint blockade alone. When administered together, OVA-monocyte vaccination improved the antitumor efficacy of Flt3L and anti-PD-1 in terms of circulating Ag-specific CD8 + T cell frequency and inhibition of subcutaneous B16/F10-OVA tumor growth. To our knowledge, this is the first demonstration that a cancer vaccine strategy and Flt3L can improve the antitumor efficacy of anti-PD-1. The findings presented here warrant further study of how monocyte vaccines can improve Flt3L and immune checkpoint blockade as they enter clinical trials.
