Soluble PD-L1 Expression After Intravenous Treatment of Cancer Patients With Selenite in Phase I Clinical Trial.

ABSTRACT: A high expression level of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) is observed in different types of cancers (particularly lung cancer). Soluble (s)PD-L1 may be used as a prognostic marker and a target for anti-cancer immunity, as well as, predicting gene therapy or systemic immunotherapy in blocking the PD-1 and PD-L1 checkpoint. Studies that evaluate the effects of the immune regulator selenium on PD-L1 expression show ambiguous results. Thus, we aimed to analyze sPD-L1 levels in samples from patients who underwent different dosages of selenite treatment in phase I clinical trial. We hypothesized that selenite modulates the sPD-L1 levels in the plasma as a consequence of the suggested mode of action of selenotherapy in cancer patients. In conclusion, our results support the view that selenotherapy does not substantially affect the PD-1/PD-L1 axis judged by sPD-L1 analysis. Furthermore, no significant correlation was observed between the survival and sPD-L1 expression nor sPD-L1 changes. However, due to a dynamic individual sPD-L1 profile and a high variation in survival, we suggest that further studies are needed to identify whether individual patients can be benefited from combinational seleno- and anti-PD-L1 therapy.

Project description:Exosomal PD-L1 (exoPD-L1) is reported to be associated with immunosuppression in various cancers. However, its clinical value in extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma (ENKTL) has not been defined yet. We retrospectively evaluated the prognostic value of pretreatment circulating soluble PD-L1 (sPD-L1) and exosomal PD-L1 (exoPD-L1) in ENKTL patients treated with VIPD-containing chemotherapy. A total of 107 ENKTL patients, including 101 early stage and 6 advanced stage patients were enrolled in our study. ExoPD-L1 and sPD-L1 in the blood were measured by single molecule array (Simoa) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), respectively. Compared with the healthy individuals (n=16), the patients with ENKTL (n=107) exhibited significantly elevated exoPD-L1 and sPD-L1 levels in the blood. High pretreatment plasma exoPD-L1 concentration was associated with higher SUVmax level and recurrence rate. Similarly, high sPD-L1 group was also associated with some adverse clinical parameters, including advanced stage, elevated LDH levels, B symptoms, high IPI score and PINK score. The 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate and overall survival (OS) rates were 65.2% and 85.7% for the whole cohort, respectively. Patients with a low pretreatment exoPD-L1 level (simoa signal < 1.2) had 5-year OS and PFS rates of 88.1% and 86.1%, respectively, compared with 56.0%. (P=0.012) and 35.7% (P=0.007) in patients with high exoPD-L1 level (simoa signal > 1.2). The 5-year OS and PFS rates for patients with low sPD-L1 group (< 219 pg/mL) was significantly higher than high sPD-L1 group (≥ 219 pg/mL) (OS, 91.3% vs. 55.5%, P < 0.001; PFS, 68.9% vs. 34.6%, P=0.003). However, no correlation was found between circulating exoPD-L1 and sPD-L1 levels. This is the first study to measure plasma exoPD-L1 level on the Quanterix Simoa platform. Our results proved that circulating exoPD-L1 and sPD-L1 levels were significantly elevated in ENKTL and might be potential biomarkers for predicting the survival outcomes of ENKTL patients.
