A major obstacle to the use of adenovirus vectors derived from common human serotypes, such as human adenovirus 5 (AdHu5), is the high prevalence of virus-neutralizing antibodies in the human population. We previously constructed a variant of chimpanzee adenovirus 68 (AdC68) that maintained the fundamental properties of the carrier but was serologically distinct from AdC68 and resisted neutralization by AdC68 antibodies. In the present study, we tested whether this modified vector, termed AdCDQ, could induce transgene product-specific CD8+ T cells in mice with preexisting neutralizing antibody to wild-type AdC68. Contrary to our expectation, the data show conclusively that antibodies that fail to neutralize the AdCDQ mutant vector in vitro nevertheless impair the vector's capacity to transduce cells and to stimulate a transgene product-specific CD8+ T-cell response in vivo. The results thus suggest that in vitro neutralization assays may not reliably predict the effects of virus-specific antibodies on adenovirus vectors in vivo.
