Association between blood parameters, whole-blood transcriptomic profiles, and immune-related adverse events in metastatic renal cell carcinoma during nivolumab plus ipilimumab

ABSTRACT: Pretreatment immune profiles associated with immune-related adverse events (irAEs) may inform individualized management strategies, including enhanced monitoring and early toxicity intervention, in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) treated with nivolumab plus ipilimumab. In this cohort (n = 51), we analyzed pretreatment peripheral blood parameters and whole-blood transcriptomic profiles. Higher lymphocyte and monocyte counts (odds ratios [ORs] 14.36 and 9.90, respectively) were significantly associated with an increased risk of irAEs, whereas higher neutrophil counts and C-reactive protein levels (ORs 0.08 and 0.27, respectively) were associated with a decreased risk. To characterize immune pathways associated with irAE development, we performed whole-blood transcriptomic analyses. Gene set enrichment analysis revealed upregulation of lymphocyte- and humoral immunity-related pathways and downregulation of neutrophil- and inflammatory-related pathways in patients who developed irAEs. CIBERSORTx demonstrated reduced neutrophil fractions and increased proportions of CD8⁺ T cells and activated memory CD4⁺ T cells, indicating an adaptive immune-dominant profile. Exploratory analysis identified five candidate genes (ANAPC1, CDK4, MCM6, GRAP2, and BST2) that may contribute to the immune features associated with irAE development. Collectively, these findings suggest that irAE development is associated with a distinct systemic immune profile characterized by enhanced lymphocyte-related and reduced neutrophil-related immune activity.

T cell characteristics associated with toxicity to immune checkpoint blockade in patients with melanoma [BCR and TCR scRNA-Seq]

Project description:Severe immune-related adverse events (irAEs) occur in up to 60% of melanoma patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). However, it remains unknown whether a common baseline immunological state precedes irAE development. Leveraging CyTOF, single-cell RNA sequencing, bulk RNA sequencing, and T cell receptor sequencing to analyze pretreatment blood from metastatic melanoma patients treated with ICIs, we investigated cellular factors associated with severe irAE development regardless of organ system involvement. Our results demonstrate circulating T cell characteristics associated with ICI-induced toxicity, with implications for improved diagnostics and clinical management.

Checkpoint blockade-induced dermatitis and colitis are dominated by tissue resident memory T cells and Th1/Tc1 cytokines

Project description:Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) is therapeutically successful in multiple cancer types. However, immune-related adverse events (irAE) frequently occur and can sometimes be life-threatening. It is critical to understand the immunologic mechanisms of irAEs with the goal of finding novel treatment targets. Therefore, we studied tissues from irAE dermatitis cases using multiparameter immunofluorescence (IF), spatial transcriptomics, and RNA in situ hybridization. Skin psoriasis cases were studied as a comparison, as a known Th17-driven disease, and colitis was investigated as a comparison. IF analysis revealed that CD4+ and CD8+ tissue resident memory T (TRM) cells were preferentially expanded in the inflamed portion of skin in cutaneous irAEs compared to healthy skin controls. Spatial transcriptomics allowed focusing attention on areas containing TRM cells to discern their functional phenotype, and revealed expression of Th1-associated genes in irAE, compared to Th17-asociated genes in psoriasis. Expression of a range of inhibitory checkpoint molecules was observed, including PD-1, CTLA-4, LAG-3, and TIGIT. RNA in situ hybridization (RISH) technology combined with IF confirmed expression of IFN-γ, CXCL9, CXCL10, and TNF-α in additional irAE dermatitis cases and allowed us to identify production of IFN-γ within TRM cells specifically. The Th1-skewed phenotype was confirmed in irAE colitis cases compared to healthy colon.

Methylation cytometric pretreatment blood immune profiles with tumor mutation burden as prognostic indicators for survival outcomes in head and neck cancer patients on anti-PD-1 therapy

Project description:Tissue biomarkers for immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) response are limited by tumor sample heterogeneity and availability. This study identifies clinically actionable pretreatment blood biomarkers that are associated with ICI treatment response and survival in recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. A prospective multi-center study enrolled 100 patients before standard-of-care immunotherapy. Blood immune profiles, measured by methylation cytometry, were assessed alongside tumor mutational burden (TMB) and PD-L1 combined proportion score (CPS). TMB and PD-L1 CPS were available for 56 and 91 patients, respectively. High neutrophils, monocytes, and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio were associated with worse survival, while high CD4T cells, especially naïve CD4T cells, and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio were associated with better survival. Significant interactions between TMB and peripheral immune profiles for both progression-free and overall survival were found. Clinically relevant pretreatment peripheral immune biomarkers were identified, demonstrating the potential of DNA-based immune profiling to predict ICI response before treatment.

Multiomics analysis of immune-related adverse events in melanoma patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors

Project description:Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are a standard-of-care for the treatment of advanced melanoma, but their use is limited by immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Proteomic analysis and multiplex cytokine/chemokine assay from serum at baseline and at irAEs onset in 82 patients indicated aberrant T-cell activity with differential expression of Type I and III immune signatures. This was in line with an increase in the proportions of monocytes and decrease of IL-17A producing CD4+ T-cells in the peripheral blood in single cell RNA sequencing. Multiplex immunohistochemistry on ICI-induced skin rash and inflamed colon showed increase in the proportion of CD4+ T-cells with IL-17A expression. Anti-IL17A antagonistic mAbs were administered in two patients with severe myocarditis, colitis and skin rash with resolution of the irAE. This study demonstrates the potential role of Type III CD4+ T-cells in the irAEs development and provides proof-of-principle evidence to support a clinical trial examining anti-IL17A in their management.

Clonally expanded effector CD4+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes are associated with severe neurological adverse events after immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy

Project description:Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapies present a pillar of modern cancer therapy but can cause severe and potentially fatal neurological immune-related adverse events (n-irAEs). Here, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing and T cell receptor profiling of PBMCs of a cohort of 17 cancer patients receiving ICI therapy. Our data suggest alterations in regulatory T cell frequencies and B cell states, and a significant enrichment of clonally expanded CD4+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CD4+ CTLs) with an effector gene expression profile in n-irAE patients.

Single-Cell RNA Sequencing of Baseline PBMCs Predicts ICI efficacy and irAE Severity in NSCLC Patients

Project description:Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized by offering remarkable clinical benefits and durable responses for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, a very small percentage of patients responded to ICI treatment, and immune-related adverse events (irAEs) leading to treatment discontinuation remain challenges. Despite the recognized need for biomarkers that can predict both the efficacy of ICIs and the risk of irAEs, such biomarkers have yet to be clearly identified. In this study, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from NSCLC patients prior to treatment with ICIs. We found that the immune response is generally reduced in patients with poor prognosis. However, the hypoxic environment is particularly more prominent in patients with primary resistance compared to those with acquired resistance. Meanwhile, granzyme and perforin are closely associated with favorable prognosis. We also identified IL1B and CXCL8 as key predictors of irAEs, with their activation linked to inflammation. Moreover, we found that PRF1 in CD8+ T cells and NK cells plays a critical mediator of complete responses and reduced irAE to ICI therapy. These findings deepen our understanding of the mechanisms of ICI efficacy and provide valuable information for optimizing immunotherapy strategies. By identifying biomarkers for both better prognosis and irAEs, this research lays the foundation for personalized immunotherapy approaches that aim to improve clinical outcomes while minimizing the risks associated with ICI treatment.

Effect of ECP on intestinal immune cells in immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced colitis - batch2 [scRNA-Seq]

Project description:Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors (ICI) have proven to be beneficial against tumors by boosting anti-tumor immunity, however these therapies can induce severe inflammatory side effects in all tissues, named immune-related adverse events (irAE). The colon is affected most commonly. These cause termination of treatment. Until today, patients with irAEs received systemic immunosuppressive therapies. We have found ECP as a novel therapy, which causes immunomodulation in the inflamed tissue without systemic immunosuppression. To understand which immune cells are affected by ECP in the inflamed intestinal tract, mice were treated with DSS and anti-PD1 to induce colitis, comparable to patients suffering from ICI-induced irAEs. ECP showed beneficial effects in patients. Mice were transplanted with ECP-treated cells as treatment and scSeq was performed with Colon infiltrating CD45 positive cells. Naive mice, mice receiving DSS and isotype control and mice receiving DSS in combination with anti-PD1 and untreated splenocytes, served as control.
