IDO Inhibition Facilitates Antitumor Immunity of Vγ9Vδ2 T Cells in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) escape from immune-mediated destruction was associated with immunosuppressive responses that dampened the activation of tumor-infiltrating CD8 and γδ T cells. TNBC had a higher level of programmed cell death 1-ligand 1 (PD-L1) and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), compared with other breast cancer subtypes. But, clinical studies have revealed that the response rate of PD-1/PD-L1 antibody for TNBC treatment was relatively low. However, the antitumor responses of human Vγ9Vδ2 T cells or IDO inhibitor in TNBC treatment are unknown. In this study, we found that IDO1 and PD-L1 were highly expressed in TNBC patients. Analysis of the clinical samples demonstrated that Vγ9Vδ2 T cells became exhausted in triple-negative breast cancer patients. And Vγ9Vδ2 T cell
