An oncolytic vaccinia virus expressing anti-CD47 nanobody exerts enhanced antitumor activity by mediating innate and adaptive immune cell infiltration and activation in the lymphoma tumor microenvironment.

Anti-CD47 antibodies targeting macrophage immune checkpoints have demonstrated benefit in clinical trials, particularly in combination with targeted therapies. Nevertheless, this strategy faces challenges from suboptimal efficacy and on-target toxicity due to an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment and ubiquitous CD47 expression. Here, we report a novel oncolytic vaccine virus (OVV) that expresses therapeutic transgenes encoding an anti-mouse CD47 nanobody or an anti-human CD47 nanobody fused with the IgG1 Fc fragment (termed OVV-mCD47nb and OVV-hCD47nb-G1, respectively), and show that anti-CD47 nanobodies secreted by lymphoma cells infected with armed OVV enhanced tumor phagocytosis via blockade of the CD47/SIRPα signal pathway.
