Immune cells and their inflammatory mediators modify beta cells and cause checkpoint inhibitor-induced diabetes

ABSTRACT: Checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs) targeting PD-1/PD-L1 and CTLA-4 have revolutionized cancer treatment but can trigger autoimmune complications including CPI-induced diabetes (CPI-DM), which occurs preferentially with PD-1 blockade. We found evidence of pancreatic inflammation in patients with CPI-DM with shrinkage of pancreases, increased pancreatic enzymes, and in a case from a patient who died with CPI-DM, peri-islet lymphocytic infiltration. In the NOD mouse model, anti-PD-L1 but not anti-CTLA-4 induces DM rapidly. RNA sequencing revealed that cytolytic IFNγ+ CD8+ T cells infiltrated islets with anti-PD-L1. Changes in β cells were predominantly driven by IFNγ and TNFα and included induction of a novel β cell population with transcriptional changes suggesting dedifferentiation. IFNγ increased checkpoint ligand expression and activated apoptosis pathways in human β cells in vitro. Treatment with anti-IFNγ and anti-TNFα prevented CPI-DM in anti-PD-L1 treated NOD mice. CPIs targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway result in transcriptional changes in β cells and immune infiltrates that may lead to the development of diabetes. Inhibition of inflammatory cytokines can prevent CPI-DM, suggesting a strategy for clinical application to prevent this complication.

Transcriptomic profiling of an in vivo mouse model of immune checkpoint induced colitis

Transcriptomic profile comparison of an in vivo model of dual combination immune checkpoint colitis or monotherapy immune checkpoint colitis

Project description:Immune checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs) have revolutionised cancer treatment, with previously untreatable disease now amenable to potential cure. Combination regimens of anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1 show enhanced efficacy but are prone to off-target immune-mediated tissue injury, particularly at the barrier surfaces. CPI-induced colitis is a common and serious complication. A higher proportion of patients undergoing monotherapy anti-CTLA-4 treatment tend to develop colitis compared to monotherapy treated anti-PD-1 treated patients. This effect is enhanced when patients are treated with both drugs. To probe the impact of either anti-CTLA4 or anti-PD1 on intestinal homeostasis, mice were challenged with anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1 immunotherapy in either monotherapy or together in combination. Manipulation of the intestinal microbiota has also been shown to be important in both this model, from previous data, and in patients. Colonic immune responses were then profiled using bulk RNA-sequencing.

Single cell transcriptomics reveals colonic lymphocyte remodelling and emergence of polyfunctional, cytolytic lymphocyte responses in CPI-induced colitis

Project description:Immune checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs) have revolutionised cancer treatment, with previously untreatable disease now amenable to potential cure. Combination regimens of anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1 show enhanced efficacy but are prone to off-target immune-mediated tissue injury, particularly at the barrier surfaces. To probe the impact of immune checkpoints on intestinal homeostasis, mice were challenged with anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1 immunotherapy and manipulation of the intestinal microbiota. Single-cell RNA-sequencing revealed remodelling of mucosal lymphocytes with induction of polyfunctional lymphocyte responses characterized by increased expression of Ifng, other pro-inflammatory cytokines/chemokines (Il22, Il17a Ccl3, Ccl4 and Ccl9), cytotoxicity molecules (Gzmb, Gzma, Prf1, Nkg7) and the chemokine receptor Cxcr6. In comparison with mucosal lymphocytes in the steady state, polyfunctional lymphocytes from both CD4+ and CD8+ lineages upregulated costimulatory molecules and checkpoint molecules in CPI-colitis, indicating that these cells are tightly regulated.

Effects of durvalumab alone or combined with tremelimumab on preexisting cells in the tumor microenvironment

Project description:Immune checkpoint blockade with anti–PD-1/L1 or anti–CTLA-4 therapies has shown promising results across multiple cancer types, but the mechanisms within the tumor microenvironment (TME) have not been fully characterized. We used single-cell RNA sequencing to investigate the effects of anti–PD-L1 monoclonal antibody (mAb) durvalumab (D) alone and combined with an anti–CTLA-4 mAb, tremelimumab (T), on distinct subsets of immune cells. Upon treatment with D or D+T, two NSCLC tumors showed elevated IFNγ responses, although they differed in magnitude of response but differed in other areas. Our results highlight that D and D+T in the TME have some consistent effects across tumors but also exhibit tumor-specific effects depending on composition and functional state of immune cells in the TME at time of treatment. This complex tumor-specific interplay of diverse immune subtypes in the TME is critical to better understand patient response to immunotherapy.

EZH2 Inhibition Activates a dsRNA-STING-Interferon Stress Mechanism that Potentiates Response to PD-1 Check-Point Blockade in Prostate Cancer

Project description:Prostate cancers are considered immunologically ‘cold’ tumors given the very few patients who respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy (CPI). Recently, enrichment of interferon stimulated genes (ISGs) predicts a favorable response to CPI across various disease sites. The enhancer of zeste homolog-2 (EZH2) is over-expressed in prostate cancer and is known to negatively regulate ISGs. Here, we demonstrate that a majority of ISGs are not directly silenced by EZH2 mediated H3K27me3 deposition, but instead in a poised chromatin state associated with accessible chromatin (ATAC+) and H3K27ac deposition. Inhibition of EZH2 catalytic activity in prostate cancer models activates a dsRNA-STING-ISG cellular stress response upregulating genes involved in antigen presentation, Th-1 chemokine signaling, and interferon (IFN) response, including PD-L1 that is dependent on STING activation. EZH2 inhibition combined with PD-1 CPI significantly enhances anti-tumor response dependent on up-regulation of tumor PD-L1 expression. Further, combination therapy significantly increases intratumoral trafficking of activated CD8+ T-cells and M1 tumor associated macrophages (TAMs) with concurrent loss of M2 TAMs. Our study identifies EZH2 as a potent inhibitor of antitumor immunity and responsiveness to CPI. This data suggests EZH2 inhibition is a novel therapeutic direction to enhance prostate cancer response to PD-1 CPI.

High Response Rate to Anti PD-1 Therapy in Desmoplastic Melanoma

Project description:<p>Desmoplastic melanoma (DM) is a rare subtype of melanoma characterized by dense fibrous stroma, resistance to chemotherapy and a lack of actionable driver mutations, but is highly associated with ultraviolet light DNA damage. We analysed 60 patients with advanced DM treated with programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) or PD-1 ligand (PD-L1) blocking antibody therapy. Objective tumor responses were observed in 42 of the 60 patients (70%, 95% confidence interval 57-81%), including 19 patients (32% overall) with a complete response. Whole-exome sequencing revealed a high mutational load and frequent NF-1 mutations (14 out of 17 cases). Immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis from 19 DM and 13 non-DM revealed a higher percentage of PD-L1 positive cells in the tumor parenchyma in DM (p = 0.04), highly associated with increased CD8 density and PD-L1 expression in the tumor invasive margin. Therefore, patients with advanced DM derive significant clinical benefit from PD-1/PD-L1 immune checkpoint blockade therapy despite being a cancer defined by its dense desmoplastic fibrous stroma. The benefit is likely derived from the high mutational burden and a frequent pre-existing adaptive immune response limited by PD-L1 expression.</p>
