Mandl 1, Sebastien Talbot6, Simon Beaudoin7, Daniela Stanga7, Sebastien Plouffe7 and  \nMoutih Rafei 1,4,5*  \nAbstract  \nBackground The Accum® platform was initially designed to accumulate biomedicines in target cells by inducing endosomal‑to‑cytosol escape. Interestingly however, the use of unconjugated Accum® was observed to trigger cell death in a variety of cancer cell lines; a property further exploited in the development of Accum®‑based anti‑cancer therapies. Despite the impressive pro‑killing abilities of the parent molecule, some cancer cell lines exhibited resist‑ ance. This prompted us to test additional Accum® variants, which led to the identification of the AccuTOX® molecule. Methods A series offlow‑cytometry and cell‑based assays were used to assess the pro‑killing properties of AccuTOX® along with its ability to trigger the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), endosomal breaks and antigen presentation. RNA‑seq was also conducted to pinpoint the most prominent processes modulated by AccuTOX® treatment in EL4 T‑cell lymphoma. Finally, the therapeutic potency of intratumorally‑injected AccuTOX® was evaluated in three different murine solid tumor models (EL4, E0771 and B16) both as a monotherapy or in combi‑ nation with three immune‑checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) .  \nResults In total, 7 Accum® variants were screened for their ability to induce complete cell death in 3 murine (EL4, B16 and E0771) and 3 human (MBA‑MD‑468, A549, and H460) cancer cell lines of different origins. The selected compound (hereafter refereed to as AccuTOX®) displayed an improved killing efficiency (~ 5.5 fold compared to the parental Accum®), while retaining its ability to trigger immunogenic cell death, ROS production, and endosomal breaks. Moreover, transcriptomic analysis revealed that low dose AccuTOX® enhances H2‑Kb cell surface expression as well as antigen presentation in cancer cells. The net outcome culminates in impaired T‑cell lymphoma, breast cancer and melanoma growth in vivo especially when combined with anti‑CD47, anti‑CTLA‑4 or anti‑PD‑1 depending on the animal model.  \nConclusions AccuTOX® exhibits enhanced cancer killing properties, retains all the innate characteristics displayed by the parental Accum® molecule, and synergizes with various ICI in controlling tumor growth. These observations will certainly pave the path to continue the clinical development of this lead compound against multiple solid tumor indications.  \n†Jean Pierre Bikorimana and Nehme El‑Hachem have contributed equally to the study.  \n*Correspondence:  \nMoutih Rafei  \n[moutih.rafei.1@umontreal.ca](moutih.rafei.1@umontreal.ca)  \nFull list of author information is available at the end of the article  \n© The Author(s) 2024.
