Tebentafusp elicits on-target cutaneous immune responses driven by cytotoxic T cells in uveal melanoma patients


ABSTRACT: Background: Tebentafusp is the first T-cell receptor-based bispecific protein approved for clinical use in HLA-A*02:01+ adult patients with unresectable/metastatic uveal melanoma. It redirects T-cells toward gp100-expressing target cells, frequently inducing skin-related early adverse events. Methods: This study investigated immunological and cellular responses using single-cell and spatial analysis of skin biopsies from patients with metastatic uveal melanoma treated with tebentafusp. Results: 81.8% of patients developed acute cutaneous adverse events, which correlated with improved survival. Multimodal analysis revealed a brisk infiltration of CD4+ and CD8+ T-cells, while melanocyte numbers declined. Single-cell RNA-sequencing revealed T-cell activation, proliferation, and IFN-γ/cytotoxic gene upregulation. CD8+ T-cells co-localized with melanocytes and upregulated LAG3, suggesting potential for combination therapies with tebentafusp. Melanocytes upregulated antigen presentation and apoptotic pathways, while pigmentation gene expression decreased. However, gp100 remained stably expressed. Conclusion: Sequential skin biopsies enable in vivo pharmacodynamic modeling of tebentafusp, offering insights into immune activation, toxicity, and treatment response. Examining the on-target effects of bispecifics in tissues amenable to longitudinal sampling enhances our understanding of toxicity and therapeutic escape mechanisms, guiding strategies for treatment optimization.
