LPR Technology

Currently, mRNA-based vaccines are being developed for treating various diseases including cancers. For this purpose, synthetic or in vitro transcribed (IVT) mRNA encoding tumor antigen offers several advantages over plasmid DNA encoding tumor antigen including better delivery and security. Liposomes/Polymer/mRNA ternary complexes termed lipoplyplexes (LPR) can be used to deliver mRNA encoding antigen in vivo. Studies reported the preparation of mannosylated mRNA nanoparticles (Man-LPR) loaded with mRNA encoding a melanoma antigen MART-1. Immunization with LPR instigated extremely potent T-cell responses and showed superior effectiveness in controlling tumor growth compared to intravenous immunization with antigen mRNA electroporated DCs.
