PubMed Abstract: The urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) is currently gaining momentum as a promising molecular target for treatment of various solid cancers. For patient stratification, we developed a high-affinity uPAR-targeting peptide (AE105) detecting primary cancer lesions as well as occult metastasis by positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. uPAR-targeting by AE105 is also used for optical imaging in fluorescence-guided surgery of, for example, head-and-neck cancers. Recently, we showed that a monoclonal anti-uPAR antibody (FL1), in the form of an antibody-drug conjugate (FL1-ADC), efficiently eradicate pancreatic ductal carcinomas in surrogate mouse models leading to long-term remissions. In the current study, we solved high-resolution cryo-EM structures of FL1 in complex with two different conformational states of uPAR. Combined with comprehensive kinetic data from surface plasmon resonance studies, our cryo-EM structures provide essential insights into how FL1 binding impacts the interdomain flexibility of uPAR by restricting the movement of its N-terminal LU domain. This constraint from the bound FL1 drives uPAR into its open conformation, which leads to a pronounced reduction in the binding affinity for both its natural protease ligand (300-fold) and the PET imaging probe AE105 (25-fold). Collectively, these consequences of FL1-binding on uPAR conformation are considered beneficial for both targeted cancer treatment with FL1-ADCs and for the accompanying evaluation of treatment efficacy by longitudinal AE105-based PET imaging.
