Project description:We had previously demonstrated the role of CD103 integrin on lung tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) clones in promoting specific TCR-mediated epithelial tumor cell cytotoxicity. However, the contribution of CD103 on intratumoral T-cell distribution and functions, and the prognosis significance of TIL subpopulations in non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) have thus far not been systematically addressed. Here we investigate the transcriptomic profil of these cell population, using PBMC cells as control.

Project description:Adoptive cell therapy using tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) can achieve durable responses in metastatic melanoma and other indications, but the long-term clonal dynamics after multiple administration and synergy with checkpoint blockade are still to be explored. We present a longitudinal case study of a prostate cancer patient treated with serial TIL infusions and delayed anti-PD-1 therapy, analyzed using high-throughput T-cell receptor (TCR) sequencing from serial blood and tumor samples over five years. TIL-derived clonotypes exhibited sustained persistence and clonal expansion in blood, with peaks corresponding to clinical response. Multiple TIL administration increased the patient exposure to the therapy, improving its pharmacokinetics profile over time. Notably, anti-PD-1 therapy administered six months post-first TIL administration further expanded both previously infused and novel TIL-derived clonotypes, coinciding with durable complete response. Serial tracking revealed stable levels of TIL-derived clonotypes up to five years post-treatment, with persistent tumor infiltration. T-cell clonotype expansion was associated with decreased TCR diversity and increased frequency of hyperexpanded clones, suggesting selective amplification of tumor-reactive populations. Our findings provide mechanistic insight into the long-term persistence and reactivation of TIL-derived immunity and illustrate the potent synergy between adoptive transfer and delayed PD-1 blockade, supporting the integration of longitudinal immunogenomic monitoring in personalized immunotherapy.

Project description:Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) are considered to be exhausted, lacking proliferative and effector functions, which impairs cancer immunity. We employed single-cell mass cytometry and tissue imaging technologies to dissect TILs in 25 resectable and 35 advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. We identified a phenotypically burn-out CD8 TIL subset (Ebo), specifically accumulated within the tumor microenvironment (TME). In contrast to exhausted T-cells, Ebo appears to be the most proliferative TIL subset. Furthermore, Ebo showed the highest expression of activation markers, but it was more apoptotic and produced less IFNg than other CD8 TIL subsets. Using a humanized patient-derived tumor xenograft model, we demonstrated that Ebo expansion occurred within the TME in a PD-pathway dependent manner. Importantly, Ebo abundance in baseline tumor tissues was associated with resistance to anti-PD therapy in NSCLC patients. Our study identified a dysfunctional TIL subset, distinct from exhausted T-cells, and implies strategies to overcome resistance in cancer immunotherapy.

Project description:Background: Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) with tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) is effective in treating PD-1 refractory melanoma, but requires adequate ex vivo expansion of TIL. Methods: CD4+ and CD8+ TIL from metastatic melanoma patients treated with TIL ACT were analyzed by RNA-seq (n=12) and ChIP-seq of acetylated histone 3 (n=19). Patients were grouped into “TIL high” and “TIL low” based on division at the median number of TIL infused. The number of TIL infused and CD4+ TIL frequency were correlated with overall survival (OS). Results: The number of TIL infused correlated with longer OS (R2=0.57, p=0.00076), and the percent of CD4+ infused was negatively correlated with the total number of TIL infused (R2=0.64, p=0.00047). RNA-seq analysis of CD4+ TIL showed increases in Th2/Th17/Treg transcripts and pathways in the TIL low group. ChIP-seq analysis of CD8+ TIL showed decreased acetylation in the TIL low group in genes upregulated during CD8+ activation. Conclusion: The numbers of TIL infused were associated with increased overall survival, while RNA-seq suggested that polarized CD4+ cells in the transferred TIL were associated with decreased overall expansion. These data suggest that improper CD4+ TIL polarization may reduce expansion and treatment efficacy.

Project description:Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) are a promising autologous cell therapy to treat solid tumors. TILs are manufactured by expanding and reinfusing tumor-reactive T cells from tumor biopsies. Efficacy of TIL therapies has been limited by the heterogeneity of expanded TIL products and the high prevalence of dysfunctional exhausted CD8+ T cells (TEX). A subset of CD8+ TILs that are double-positive (DP) for CD103 and CD39 is enriched for tumor-reactive TILs across multiple cancer types, but also is susceptible to the TEX state. We screened overexpression of all human transcription factors (TFs) to discover master regulators of expansion in DP TILs from non-small cell lung cancer patients. RELB emerged as the dominant hit driving proliferation of DP TILs despite exhaustion induced by repeat stimulation, with a skew towards CD8+ cells. TCR-seq showed maintenance of TCR diversity from the initial TCR repertoire after multiple days of in vitro expansion driven by RELB. Transcriptome profiling of multiple RELB-expressing TIL subtypes revealed a shift towards a memory/costimulatory-like phenotype. Using a HER2-targeting CAR and tumor co-culture model, RELB conferred improved persistence after multiple tumor challenges in vitro and improved solid tumor control in mouse xenografts in vivo. Finally, co-culture of RELB-overexpressing TILs with patient-matched tumor organoids showed an increase in TIL product polyfunctionality, tumor reactivity, and tumor killing.

Project description:Many studies have shown association of tumor infiltrating B-cells and presence of tertiary lymphoid structure with improved clinical responses to immune checkpoint inhibitors therapy. We hypothesized that their presence could also have an impact on TIL therapy response. To address this, we performed RNA-seq of FFPE samples from a cohort of patients that received TIL therapy. Melanoma tumors collected prior to TIL infusion were evaluated for immune content in 9 responders and 11 non-responders to TIL therapy. Our data demonstrate an increase in class-switched memory B-cells in responders compared with non-responders to TIL therapy. In the myeloid compartment, increased presence of dendritic cell populations (pDC, aDC, and iDC) and basophils was observed in responders to TIL therapy, as well as higher content of γδ T cells and effector memory CD8+ T cells (CD8+ Tem) in the T-cell compartment. Next, we assessed the TLS presence in the same cohort by a gene expression signature of 12 chemokines using principal component analysis. The responders showed a higher TLS score compared with the non-responder patients, suggesting that patients responding to TIL therapy had more TLS in their tumors than the non-responder patients. These observations indicate that, same as in the immune checkpoint inhibitors therapy response, presence of B-cells and TLS might have a positive impact in the clinical outcome to TIL therapy.
