MicroRNA 125a Regulates MHC-I Expression on Esophageal Adenocarcinoma Cells, Associated With Suppression of Anti-tumor Immune Response and Poor Outcomes of Patients

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND & AIMS: Immune checkpoint inhibition may affect outcomes of highly aggressive cancers, such as esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC). In this regard, the MHC-I pathway and the tumor immune microenvironment are key factors that need to be explored. METHODS: We investigated post-transcriptional mechanisms of MHC-I regulation through functional and molecular studies of EAC cell lines and of EAC biopsies. We performed RNA-sequencing of fifty-one treatment-naïve EAC biopsies to evaluate the status of the MHC-I pathway and the tumor immune microenvironment with respect to patient response and disease outcomes. RESULTS: We found that in EAC miR-125a-5p and miR-148a-3p regulate TAP2 and MHC-I expression. Interestingly, MHC-I pathway expression correlated with poorer therapeutic response. Moreover, MHC-I status correlated with a tumor immune-inflamed microenvironment, in which upregulation of PD-L1, PD-L2 and IDO1 were associated to worse patient survival. CONCLUSIONS: Our data indicate that EAC patients with a proficient MHC-I expression and a tumor immune-inflamed microenvironment have poorer outcomes after neo-adjuvant therapy and may benefit from immune checkpoint inhibition.

Combined blockade of B7-H3 and CD47 immune checkpoints is a new therapeutic strategy for β-catenin driven melanomas [transfection]

Project description:In melanoma, immune cell infiltration into the tumor is associated with better patient outcomes and response to immunotherapy. T cell non-inflamed tumors (‘cold tumors’) are associated with tumor cell intrinsic Wnt/β-catenin activation, and are resistant to anti-PD-1 alone or in combination with anti-CTLA-4 therapy. Reversal of the ‘cold tumor’ phenotype and identifying new effective immunotherapies are challenges in melanoma. In a well-established preclinical melanoma model driven by β-catenin, we found that immune checkpoint molecule B7-H3 confers a suppressive tumor microenvironment by modulating antiviral signals and matricellular proteins. Its inhibition primes the microenvironment, and together with blockade of the macrophage checkpoint CD47, but not with anti-PD-1, results in synergistic anti-tumor responses. This study brings B7-H3 to the forefront as inducing a suppressive microenvironment when overexpressed, and co-targeting with CD47 as a novel combination of immune checkpoint inhibitors in melanoma that calls for testing in clinical trials.

Immunologic and clinical activity to ICB combinations in DAPPER Leiomyosarcoma cohort

Project description:Non-inflamed (cold) tumors such as leiomyosarcoma (LMS) do not benefit from immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) monotherapy. Combining ICB with angiogenesis-, or poly-ADP ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors may increase tumor immunogenicity by altering the immune cell composition of the tumor microenvironment (TME). The DAPPER phase II study evaluated the safety, immunologic, and clinical activity of ICB-based combinations in pre-treated LMS patients.

The immunopeptidome landscape associated with T cell infiltration, inflammation and immune-editing in lung cancer

Project description:One key barrier to improving efficacy of personalized cancer immunotherapies that are dependent on the tumor antigenic landscape remains patient stratification. While patients with CD3+CD8+ T cell inflamed tumors typically show better response to immune checkpoint inhibitors, it is still unknown if the repertoire of HLA bound peptides presented in highly inflamed and non-inflamed tumors is substantially different. We surveyed 61 tumor regions and adjacent non-malignant lung tissues from eight lung cancer patients and performed deep antigen discovery combining immunopeptidomics, genomics, bulk and spatial transcriptomics and explored the heterogeneous expression and presentation of tumor (neo)antigens. Here we associated diverse immune cell populations with the immunopeptidome in CD3+CD8+ T cell excluded, infiltrated, highly- and lowly-inflamed tumors. We found evidence for lower immune-editing and higher presentation efficiency of tumor-associated antigens in lowly-inflamed and CD3+CD8+ T cell excluded tumors. This could have implications for the choice of combination therapies tailored to the patient’s mutanome and microenvironment.

Combined PD-L1/TGFb blockade allows expansion and differentiation of stem cell-like CD8 T cells in immune excluded tumors

Project description:TGFb signaling is a major pathway associated with poor clinical outcome in patients with advanced metastatic cancers and non-response to immune checkpoint blockade, particularly in the immune-excluded tumor phenotype. While previous pre-clinical studies demonstrated that converting tumors from an excluded to an inflamed phenotype and curative anti-tumor immunity require attenuation of both PD-L1 and TGFb signaling, the underlying cellular mechanisms remain unclear. Recent studies suggest that stem cell-like CD8 T cells (TSCL) can differentiate into non-exhausted CD8 T effector cells that drive durable anti-tumor immunity. Here, we show that TGFb and PD-L1 restrain TSCL expansion as well as replacement of progenitor exhausted and dysfunctional CD8 T cells with non-exhausted IFNghi CD8 T effector cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Blockade of TGFb and PD-L1 generated IFNghi CD8 T effector cells with enhanced motility, enabling both their accumulation in the TME and increased interaction with other cell types. Ensuing IFNg signaling markedly transformed myeloid, stromal, and tumor niches to yield a broadly immune-supportive ecosystem. Blocking IFNg completely abolished the effect of anti-PD-L1/ TGFb combination therapy. Our data suggest that TGFb works in concert with PD-L1 to prevent TSCL expansion and replacement of exhausted CD8 T cells with fresh CD8 T effector cells, thereby maintaining the CD8 T cell compartment in a dysfunctional state.

Liu2019 - Logistic Regression models to predict intrinsic resistance to anti-PD1 ICB in Ipilimumab treated and Ipilimumab naive patients with metastatic melanoma.

Project description:In this comprehensive study, the authors have developed concise models integrating clinical, genomic and transcriptomic features to predict intrinsic resistance to anti-PD1 Immune Checkpoint Blockade (ICB) treatment in individual tumors. It's important to note that their validation was performed in smaller, independent cohorts, constrained by data availability. The authors have developed two Logistic Regression based models for Ipilimumab treated and Ipilimumab naive patients with metastatic melanoma. The main predictive features for the Ipilimumab treated patients are MHC-II HLA, LDH at treatment initiation and the presence of lymph node metastases (LN met), chosen using forward selection methodology. The main predictive features for the Ipilimumab naive patients are tumor heterogeneity, tumor ploidy and tumor purity, chosen using forward selection methodology. Please note that in these models, the output ‘1’ means progressive disease (PD) and ‘0’ means non-PD. The original GitHub repository can be accessed at https://github.com/vanallenlab/schadendorf-pd1

Interferon Gamma mRNA Signature in Tumor Biopsies Predicts Outcomes in Patients with Non–Small-Cell Lung Carcinoma or Urothelial Cancer Treated with Durvalumab

Project description:An unmet need in cancer treatment is identification of biomarkers of response to PD-1 or PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitors that predict therapeutic outcomes in patients with non–small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) and urothelial cancer (UC). Expression of PD-L1 measured by immunohistochemistry has limited capacity for predicting outcomes of immune checkpoint therapy because expression of this biomarker does not correlate highly with treatment response. In addition, PD-L1 as measured on tumor cells, which has been approved by the FDA for both companion and complementary diagnostic utility, does not necessarily reflect anti-tumor activity of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes. Results presented in this report demonstrate that gene expression levels of four interferon gamma (IFNγ)-inducible mRNAs correlate with improved clinical outcomes in patients with NSCLC or UC treated with the PD-L1 inhibitor durvalumab. This IFNγ gene signature may augment the predictive value of PD-L1 and other biomarkers in identifying cancer patients most likely to respond to therapy with durvalumab or other immune checkpoint inhibitors.
