We studied the sensitivity of several human cancer cell strains (HeLa, HT1080, SPC-A1, and ACHN) and normal cell strains (MRC-5 and Wish) to mumps virus (MuV) S79, a live attenuated vaccine strain. These cells exhibited a differential sensitivity to infection with MuV, and the susceptible sequences were ACHN > HeLa > HT1080 > SPC-A1 > Wish > MRC-5. In experiments in vivo, nude mice with HT1080 fibrosarcoma xenografts were randomly divided into three groups for intratumoral treatment with MuVS79, UV-inactivated MuVS79, and PBS. At 10(7) PFU, live MuVS79 injection caused in 7 of 9 mice complete regression by day 15 while rapid tumor growth occurred in all 9 mice treated with PBS. Rapid tumor progression also occurred in all 8 mice treated with UV-inactivated virus; however, tumor growth was delayed in the logarithmic phase relative to the PBS-treated tumors.

Octreotide is a somatostatin (SST) analogue currently used in the treatment of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) with high binding affinity for the somatostatin receptor-2 (SSTR2) that is also overexpressed in non-small cell lung cancer cell (NSCLC). Alpha-particle-emitting astatine-211 (211At) is a promising radionuclide with appropriate physical and chemical properties for use in targeted anticancer therapies. To obtain an additional pharmacological agent for the treatment of NSCLC, we present the first investigation of the possible use of 211At-labeled octreotide as a potential alpha-radionuclide therapeutic agent for NSCLC treatment. 211At-SPC-octreotide exhibited observable higher uptake in lung, spleen, stomach and intestines than in other tissues. Through histological examination, 211At-SPC-octreotide demonstrated much more lethal effect than control groups (PBS, octreotide and free 211At). These promising preclinical results suggested that 211At labeled octreotide deserved to be further developed as a new anticancer agent for NSCLC.
