CTIM-29. CRUCIAL APPLICATION OF SINGLE CELL GENE EXPRESSION FOR MONITORING CHANGES IN GLIOBLASTOMA PATIENTS WITH SUSTAINED RADIOGRAPHIC RESPONSE TO CMV pp65-LAMP RNA-PULSED DENDRITIC CELL-BASED VACCINES

ABSTRACT: Abstract

BACKGROUND

The application of single cell sequencing as a novel immune monitoring platform can be used to identify the molecular mechanisms of immune response to dendritic cell- based vaccines, trace the cell types and states involved, and uncover novel biomarkers for immunotherapy. We applied single-cell RNA Seq analysis of longitudinal peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in patients with newly-diagnosed GBM enrolled on the ATTAC II clinical trial (FDA IND BB-16530; Clinicaltrials.gov # NCT02465268) who experienced a sustained radiographic response to autologous CMV pp65-LAMP RNA-pulsed DC vaccines plus GM-CSF and tetanus-diphtheria booster administered during adjuvant cycles of dose-intensified temozolomide.

METHODS

We constructed 5’ gene expression libr
