Near-infrared photoimmunotherapy (NIR-PIT) is a novel therapy for cancers that uses NIR light and antibody-photosensitizer (IR700) conjugates. However, it is difficult to deliver NIR light into the bile duct for cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) from the conventional extracorporeal apparatus. Thus, in this study, we developed a dedicated catheter with light emitting diodes (LEDs) that supersedes conventional external irradiation devices; we investigated the therapeutic effect of NIR-PIT for CCA using the novel catheter. The new catheter was designed to be placed in the bile duct and a temperature sensor was attached to the tip of the catheter to avoid thermal burn. An anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) antibody, Panitumumab-IR700 conjugate or anti-human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 (HER2) antibody, Trastuzumab-IR700 conjugate, was used with EGFR- or HER2-expressing cell lines, respectively. The in vitro efficacy of NIR-PIT was confirmed in cultured cells; the capability of the new catheter for NIR-PIT was then tested in a mouse tumor model. NIR-PIT via the developed catheter treated CCA xenografts in mice. NIR-PIT had an effect in Panitumumab-IR700 conjugate- and Trastuzumab-IR700 conjugate-treated CCA cells that depended on the receptor expression level. Tumor growth was significantly suppressed in mice treated with NIR-PIT using the novel catheter compared with controls (P < .01). NIR-PIT was an effective treatment for EGFR- and HER2-expressing CCA cells, and the novel catheter with mounted LEDs was useful for NIR-PIT of CCA.
