Abstract
Oncolytic viruses have emerged as a promising modality in cancer treatment given their high synergy with highly efficient immune checkpoint inhibitors. However, their potency is limited by their rapid in vivo clearance. To overcome this, we coated oncolytic vaccinia viruses (oVV) with erythrocyte-derived membranes (EDMs), hypothesizing that they would not only remain in systemic circulation for longer as erythrocytes would when administered intravenously, but also respond to environmental pH cues due to their membrane surface sialic acid residues. For this, we developed a model based on DLVO theory to show that the acidic moieties on the surface of EDM confers it the ability to respond to pH-based stimuli. We corroborate our modeling results through in vitro cell culture models and show that EDM-coated oVV infects cancer cells faster under acidic conditions akin to the tumor microenvironment. When EDM-coated oVVs were intravenously injected into wild-type mice, they exhibited prolonged circulation at higher concentrations when compared to the unprocessed oVV. Furthermore, when EDM-coated oVV was directly injected into xenografted tumors, we observed that they were suppressed earlier than the tumors that received regular oVV, suggesting that the EDM coating does not hinder oVV infectivity. Overall, we found that EDM was able to serve as a multi-functional encapsulant that allowed the payload to remain in circulation at higher concentrations when administered intravenously while simultaneously exhibiting pH-responsive properties.

Abstract
Novel monoclonal antibody therapies are increasing in number and clinical significance as their role in oncologic formularies expands. Anti-CD38 and anti-CD47/SIRPα agents commonly interfere with pretransfusion compatibility testing. Anti-CD38 interference is mitigated by dithiothreitol, which disrupts CD38 antigen on reagent red cells; however, this modification limits rule-out of all clinically significant antibodies. Several anti-CD47 agents are in clinical trials and demonstrate wide variability in pretransfusion testing interference. Modifications to pretransfusion testing can limit interference by anti-CD47 agents. Rapid dissemination of knowledge of these monoclonal antibody agents to the broader transfusion medicine community is paramount for continued patient transfusion safety.
