Project description:CD3+/CD56+ Natural killer (NK) cell-like T-cells (NKT-like cells) represent <5% of blood lymphocytes, display a cytotoxic phenotype, and can kill various cancers. NKT-like cells can be expanded ex vivo into cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells, however this therapeutic cell product has had mixed results against hematological malignancies in clinical trials. The aim of this study was to determine if NKT-like cells mobilized during acute cycling exercise could be used to generate more potent anti-tumor CIK cells from healthy donors. An acute exercise bout increased NKT-like cell numbers in blood 2-fold. Single cell RNA sequencing revealed that exercise mobilized NKT-like cells have an upregulation of genes and transcriptomic programs associated with enhanced anti-tumor activity, including cytotoxicity, cytokine responsiveness, and migration. Exercise, however, did not augment the ex vivo expansion of CIK cells or alter their surface phenotypes after 21-days of culture. CIK cells expanded at rest, during exercise (at 60% and 80% VO2max) or after (1h post) were equally capable of killing leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma target cells with and without cytokine (IL-2) and antibody (OKT3) priming in vitro. We conclude that acute exercise in healthy donors mobilizes NKT-like cells with an upregulation of transcriptomic programs involved in anti-tumor activity, but does not augment the ex vivo expansion of CIK cells.

Project description:CD3-bispecific antibodies represent an important therapeutic strategy in oncology. These molecules work by redirecting cytotoxic T cells to antigen-bearing tumor cells. Although CD3-bispecific antibodies have been developed for several clinical indications, cases of cancer-derived resistance are an emerging limitation to the more generalized application of these molecules. Here, we devised whole-genome CRISPR screens to identify cancer resistance mechanisms to CD3-bispecific antibodies across multiple targets and cancer types. By validating the screen hits, we found that deficiency in IFNγ signaling has a prominent role in cancer resistance. Interestingly, IFNγ functions by stimulating the expression of T cell killing-related molecules in a cell type-specific manner. Additionally, by assessing resistance to the clinical CD3-bispecific antibody flotetuzumab, we identified core fucosylation as a novel and critical pathway to regulate flotetuzumab binding to the CD123 antigen. Disruption of this pathway resulted in significant resistance to flotetuzumab treatment. Moreover, proper fucosylation of CD123 is required for its normal biological functions. In order to treat the resistance associated with fucosylation loss, flotetuzumab in combination with an alternative targeting CD3-bispecific antibody demonstrated superior efficacy. Together, our study reveals multiple mechanisms that can be targeted to enhance the clinical potential of current and future T cell engaging CD3-bispecific antibody therapies.

Project description:Background: T cell engaging therapies are commonly accompanied by excessive cytokine production and risk of cytokine release syndrome (CRS). Intriguingly, CRS risk with CD3-engaging bispecific antibody (BSP) is primarily limited to the first dose, termed the first-dose effect. Mechanisms underlying this effect remain unknown. CD3 bispecific induces cytokine cascade via T cell triggering and bystander cells. We hypothesize that distinct T cell biology between doses drives the first-dose effect. Methods: We used the Re-directed T Cell Cytotoxicity (RTCC) assay to assess tumor killing and cytokine production by human donor T cells after initial versus subsequent CD3/CD20 BSP treatment. After confirming the first-dose effect in the experimental system containing only T cells and target tumor cells, we employed 10x Genomics single cell multi-omics to study the molecular mechanisms.Results: Compared with initial treatment, subsequent treatment exhibited lower cytokine levels and comparable tumor killing. Single cell multi-omics unveiled distinct T cell biology. In initial treatment, T effector memory (Tem) cells are the primary cells that respond to CD3 bispecific antibody stimulus by producing moderate levels of cytolytic and high levels of cytokine gene transcription. In the subsequent treatment, a new population of high TCF7 expressing central memory CD8+ cells (CD8-Tcm-TCF7), possibly originated from stimulated naive T cells, are the primary responding cells that produce a shifted balance with high level of the cytolytic gene transcription (GZMB) and low level of cytokine gene transcription (TNF-alpha and INF-gamma). Dasatinib co-treatment during initial treatment eliminated cytolytic activity and cytokine production, allowing uncompromised tumor killing and reduced cytokine production upon re-challenge. Conclusions: The distinct T cell populations that respond to first and subsequent CD3 bispecific treatment offer an explanation to the first-dose effect, wherein the risk of CRS associated with CD3 bispecific treatment is mainly limited to the initial dose. Furthermore, our work suggests that tumor killing capacity and cytokine production of T cells could be uncoupled, as demonstrated here by utilizing different T cell populations as effector cells. These findings could be further explored for designing mechanism-based strategies to mitigate the risk of CRS.

Project description:Dr. Christopher Contag lab's aim is to, investigate the molecular interactions that underlie CIK cell homing from the bloodstream to tumor tissue using a combination of gene expression profiling, flow cytometry, and in vivo molecular imaging. Collectively, these proposed experiments will define the repertoire of molecules employed in CIK cell recognition of the tumor vasculature and guide the development of improved CIK cell therapies for use in cancer patients. A promising new direction in cancer therapy is the use of cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells as broadly active tumoricidal agents. CIK cells derive from blood samples stimulated ex vivo, and these activated immune cells are capable of recognizing and destroying a plethora of tumor targets in vivo. In fact, CIK cells have demonstrated efficacy in clinical trials to treat patients with hepatoma, renal cell cancer, and hematological malignancies. Despite the remarkable clinical promise of this therapy, little is known about the mechanisms that govern CIK cell migration to tumor tissue in vivo. Understanding the trafficking patterns of these potent immune cells is of critical importance to advancing their use in humans. I aim to investigate the molecular interactions that underlie CIK cell homing from the bloodstream to tumor tissue using a combination of gene expression profiling, flow cytometry, and in vivo molecular imaging. Collectively, these proposed experiments will define the repertoire of molecules employed in CIK cell recognition of the tumor vasculature and guide the development of improved CIK cell therapies for use in cancer patients. RNA from three groups (1,2,3) were sent to Microarray Core E. Group one samples: Splenocytes were obtained from BALB/c mice, and the T cells were isolated using a negative isolation kit (magnetic bead separation). For group 2 and 3 samples: The isolated splenocytes were treated with IFN-gamma overnight. The cells were then added to anti-CD3 coated flasks and stimulated with IL-2. Fresh IL-2 was added to the media every 3 days, and the cells were harvested 12 days post-isolation. The RNA was labeled and hybridized to Glyco_v3 arrays.

Project description:To investigate whether FRCs express molecules capable of promoting the functions of activated T cells, we expanded FRCs from primary lymph node stromal cell (LNSC) cultures as previously described (Lukacs-Kornek et al., Nature Immunology, 2011), and then cultured them alone or with splenocytes activated with soluble antibody (0.25μg/ml) against CD3 (anti-CD3) and anti-CD28 for 16 hours. FRCs co-cultured with activated T cells upregulated expression of genes encoding molecules known to dampen T cell function such as Arg1, CD274 and Nos2. However, in response to activated T cells, FRCs also upregulated molecules with immunostimulatory capabilities such as Icosl, Cd40 and Il6.
