Product Description
OncoFAP is an ultra-high affinity fibroblast activating protein (FAP) ligand with tumor targeting potential. OncoFAP is an ultra-high-affinity small organic ligand targeting fibroblast activation protein (FAP), a tumor-associated antigen abundantly expressed in the stroma of over 90% of epithelial cancers with limited expression in normal adult tissues. OncoFAP binds to human FAP with a dissociation constant (KD) of 0.68 nM and cross-reacts with the murine isoform (KD = 11.6 nM). The ligand features a carboxylic acid moiety that enables versatile conjugation to various payloads, including fluorophores (e.g., Alexa488, fluorescein), radionuclides (e.g., lutetium-177), and cytotoxic drugs (e.g., vedotin). Preclinical studies demonstrated that OncoFAP derivatives selectively and rapidly accumulate in FAP-positive tumors with excellent tumor-to-organ ratios, enabling applications in fluorescence imaging, targeted radionuclide therapy, universal CAR T cell-mediated killing, and small molecule-drug conjugate-based chemotherapy. When combined with the L19-IL2 immunocytokine, OncoFAP-vedotin achieved complete and durable tumor regressions in mouse models. These properties position OncoFAP as a versatile platform for tumor-targeting applications across a broad range of FAP-positive malignancies. [1]
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Fibroblast Activation Protein (FAP). OncoFAP binds to human FAP with a dissociation constant (KD) of 0.68 nmol/L as measured by fluorescence polarization, and to murine FAP with a KD of 11.6 nmol/L. In enzyme inhibition assays, OncoFAP inhibits human FAP with an IC50 of 16.8 nmol/L and murine FAP with an IC50 of 14.5 nmol/L. [1]
ln Vitro
Target Binding and Stability: Co-elution experiments demonstrated that the fluorescein derivative of OncoFAP (compound 2) forms stable complexes with both recombinant human and murine FAP. [1]
Cellular Binding and Internalization: In SK-RC-52.hFAP cells expressing human FAP, OncoFAP-fluorescein (compound 2) primarily bound to the cell membrane without significant internalization. In contrast, efficient internalization was observed in HT-1080.hFAP cells. No binding was observed on FAP-negative SK-RC-52.wt or HT-1080.wt cells. [1]
CAR T Cell-Mediated Killing Activity: In UniCAR T cell killing assays, OncoFAP-fluorescein (compound 2) mediated dose-dependent killing of SK-RC-52.hFAP cells, reaching saturation at concentrations above 1 nM. In contrast, no significant CAR T cell-mediated killing was observed on HT-1080.hFAP cells (internalizing phenotype). [1]
ln Vivo
Fluorescence Imaging and Tissue Distribution: One hour after intravenous injection of OncoFAP-Alexa488 (compound 3) in tumor-bearing mice, the compound selectively accumulated with homogeneous distribution in FAP-positive tumors (SK-RC-52.hFAP or HT-1080.hFAP), while no significant accumulation was observed in FAP-negative tumors or healthy organs. [1]
Quantitative Biodistribution of Radiolabeled Derivative: At a dose of 50 nmol/kg of 177Lu-labeled OncoFAP (compound 4), tumor uptake reached 32% ID/g at 10 minutes post-injection, peaked at 1 hour, and remained above 20% ID/g at 3 hours. At 3 hours post-injection, the tumor-to-blood ratio was 116:1, and the tumor-to-kidney ratio was 33:1. Tumor uptake was dose-dependent across the 125 to 1000 nmol/kg dose range, with target saturation observed above 500 nmol/kg. [1]
Antitumor Efficacy: In SK-RC-52.hFAP tumor-bearing mice, OncoFAP-vedotin (compound 5, 500 nmol/kg, IV daily) as a single agent inhibited tumor growth. When combined with L19-IL2 (2.5 mg/kg, every 3 days), complete and durable tumor regressions were achieved in all treated animals. [1]
Enzyme Assay
Fluorescence Polarization Affinity Measurement: Fluorescence polarization experiments were performed in 384-well plates. Human FAP (4 μM) or murine FAP (5 μM) were serially diluted while maintaining the fluorescent probe (compound 2) at a constant concentration of 10 nM. Fluorescence anisotropy was measured, and KD values were calculated by fitting using Prism 7 software. [1]
FAP Enzymatic Activity Inhibition Assay: The enzymatic activity of human or murine FAP on the Z-Gly-Pro-AMC substrate was measured at room temperature. The reaction mixture contained substrate (20 μM), constant protein concentration (20 nM), and varying concentrations of OncoFAP (compound 1, from 10-6 M to 10-11 M, 1:2 serial dilution) in assay buffer. Fluorescence was monitored (excitation 360 nm, emission 465 nm) and IC50 values were calculated. [1]
Ligand-Protein Complex Co-elution: PD-10 columns were pre-equilibrated with running buffer. Human FAP (2 μM) or murine FAP (5 μM) were pre-incubated with OncoFAP-fluorescein (compound 2, 100 nM) and loaded onto the column, followed by elution with buffer. Fractions were collected, and fluorescence intensity (excitation 485 nm, emission 535 nm) was measured to track compound 2, while protein concentration was estimated by absorbance at 280 nm. [1]
Cell Assay
Cell Line Generation and Culture: Stable FAP-expressing cell lines were generated by transducing SK-RC-52 and HT-1080 cells with full-length human FAP using a lentiviral system, followed by FACS sorting. SK-RC-52.hFAP and SK-RC-52.wt cells were cultured in RPMI with 10% FBS and 1% antibiotics; HT-1080.hFAP and HT-1080.wt cells were cultured in DMEM with 10% FBS and 1% antibiotics. [1]
Confocal Microscopy Internalization Analysis: SK-RC-52.hFAP, SK-RC-52.wt, HT-1080.hFAP, or HT-1080.wt cells were seeded in 4-well chamber slides, grown for 24 hours, and stained with Hoechst 33342 for nuclear visualization. OncoFAP-fluorescein (compound 2, 100 nM) was added and incubated for 1 hour, followed by confocal microscopy imaging. [1]
Flow Cytometry Binding Analysis: SK-RC-52.hFAP, SK-RC-52.wt, HT-1080.hFAP, and HT-1080.wt cells were harvested and resuspended in PBS with 1% FBS. Cells (3×105) were incubated with OncoFAP-fluorescein (compound 2, 15 nM) on ice for 1 hour, washed, and analyzed by flow cytometry. [1]
UniCAR T Cell Killing Assay: Target cells were stained with PKH26 membrane dye and seeded in 96-well plates. UniCAR T cells or non-transduced T cells (effector cells) were mixed with various concentrations of OncoFAP-fluorescein (compound 2) and added to target cells at a 1:1 effector-to-target ratio, followed by 24-hour co-incubation. Target cell death was assessed by flow cytometry using TOTO-3 staining. [1]
Animal Protocol
Tumor Model Establishment: SK-RC-52.hFAP, HT-1080.hFAP, or SK-RC-52.wt cells (5×106 to 1×107) were resuspended in Hanks' Balanced Salt Solution or a PBS:Matrigel (8:2) mixture and implanted subcutaneously into the right and/or left flanks of female Balb/c nude mice (6-8 weeks old). [1]
Fluorescence Imaging Distribution Study: Tumor-bearing mice were intravenously injected with OncoFAP-Alexa488 (compound 3, 40 nmol in sterile PBS). Animals were euthanized 1 hour post-injection; organs and tumors were excised, snap-frozen in OCT medium, and stored at -80°C. Frozen sections (7 μm) were prepared, mounted with fluorescence mounting medium, and examined by fluorescence microscopy. [1]
Quantitative Biodistribution Study: 177Lu-labeled OncoFAP (compound 4, 50, 125, 250, 500, or 1000 nmol/kg, 0.5-2 MBq) was intravenously injected into SK-RC-52.hFAP tumor-bearing mice (n=4/group). Animals were euthanized at 10 minutes, 1 hour, 3 hours, and 6 hours post-injection; organs were harvested, weighed, and radioactivity was measured using a gamma counter to calculate %ID/g. [1]
Efficacy Study: SK-RC-52.hFAP tumor-bearing mice were randomized into treatment groups (n=4/group). OncoFAP-vedotin (compound 5) was administered intravenously at 500 nmol/kg daily. L19-IL2 was administered intravenously at 2.5 mg/kg every 3 days. Compound 5 was dissolved in sterile PBS containing 2% DMSO. Tumor volumes (length × width² × 0.5) and body weights were measured daily. [1]
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Quantitative Biodistribution and PK Profile: In SK-RC-52.hFAP tumor-bearing mice, 177Lu-labeled OncoFAP (compound 4) at 50 nmol/kg demonstrated rapid tumor accumulation, reaching 32% ID/g at 10 minutes post-injection, peaking at 1 hour, and remaining >20% ID/g at 3 hours. At 3 hours post-injection, the tumor-to-blood ratio was 116:1, and the tumor-to-kidney ratio was 33:1. Tumor uptake was dose-dependent across the 125 to 1000 nmol/kg dose range, with target saturation observed above 500 nmol/kg. [1]
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Tolerability Assessment: In SK-RC-52.hFAP tumor-bearing mice, OncoFAP-vedotin (compound 5) administered intravenously at 500 nmol/kg daily, either as a single agent or in combination with L19-IL2, showed no signs of acute toxicity, with no significant body weight loss observed in treated animals.

Additional Infomation
Background and Mechanism of Action: OncoFAP is an ultra-high-affinity small molecule ligand for FAP, with a KD of 0.68 nmol/L for human FAP. FAP is abundantly expressed in the stroma of over 90% of epithelial cancers (including breast, colorectal, pancreatic cancers) with restricted expression in normal adult tissues, making it an ideal tumor-targeting antigen. OncoFAP features a carboxylic acid moiety that enables facile conjugation to various payloads (fluorophores, radionuclides, cytotoxic drugs) for targeted delivery applications. [1]
Multimodal Tumor Targeting Applications: OncoFAP derivatives demonstrate versatile tumor targeting capabilities: 1) 177Lu-labeled for radionuclide therapy; 2) fluorescently labeled for tumor imaging; 3) in combination with UniCAR T cells for immune cell-mediated killing; and 4) as small molecule-drug conjugates (SMDCs) with vedotin for chemotherapy, achieving complete tumor regressions when combined with L19-IL2. [1]
Indications: OncoFAP and its derivatives can be used for targeting a broad range of FAP-positive solid tumors, including but not limited to breast, colorectal, pancreatic, lung, head and neck, and esophageal cancers. [1]
