Overexpression of Programmed Death-Ligand 1 Receptor mRNA as an Independent Negative Prognostic Factor for Triple Negative Breast Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Background:Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) (represents roughly 25% of all breast cancers in Yogyakarta) still has the worst survival compared to other breast cancer subtypes. Results from recent studies have shown that inhibition of programmed death-ligand 1 receptor (PD-L1) in TNBC patients is associated with better prognosis. Currently, data on PD-L1 expression and its prognostic value in Indonesian TNBC patients are still relatively unknown. This study aimed to investigate the expression of PD-L1 in Indonesian TNBC patients as preliminary proof to support PD-L1 inhibitor as a possible treatment option near in the future. Methods:We retrospectively included stage I-III TNBC patients diagnosed between 2014 and 2017 in Dr. Sardjito Hospital, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Clinical variables were collected from medical record. Paraffin blocks of biopsy specimen were retrieved to examine mRNA level of PD-L1. Results:We included 48 subjects with mean age of 51.09 years and mean body mass index (BMI) of 24.58. The 3-year overall survival (OS) was 58.3%. Overexpression of PD-L1 mRNA in TNBC patients is associated with worse prognosis (P < 0.01). There were no statistically significant associations between PD-L1 mRNA expression and any of the clinicopathologic variables examined. Conclusions:In summary, PD-L1 mRNA overexpression is associated with worse survival in Indonesian TNBC patients, independent of other established risk factors. PD-L1 mRNA is expressed in all of our samples, presenting as a feasible alternative or complementary method in deciding which patient might benefit from receiving PD-L1 inhibitor.

Project description:BackgroundCheckpoint inhibition has demonstrated clinical efficacy in a variety of solid tumors. Reports of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression in glioblastoma are highly variable (ranging from 6% to 88%) and its role as a prognostic marker has yielded conflicting results.ObjectiveTo validate the prevalence and prognostic role of PD-L1 expression in a large cohort of diffuse gliomas according to the 2016 revised WHO classification.MethodsUsing tissue microarrays, we compared 5 PD-L1 monoclonal antibodies (n = 56) and validated expression (n = 183) using quantitative immunohistochemistry (IHC) and RNA in situ hybridization (RISH). Expression data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and published studies were compared with clinical outcome. Multiplexed immunophenotyping was used to identify PD-L1+ cell populations in post-treatment glioblastoma.ResultsUsing a 5% cut-off, PD-L1 expression was significantly associated with a poor prognosis in both histologically defined (n = 125, log-rank P < .001) and recurrent isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-wildtype glioblastoma (n = 60, log-rank P = .015). PD-L1 remained a significant negative prognosticator in Cox regression analysis (hazard ratio: 1.96, P = .021). Analysis of TCGA data confirmed decreased overall survival in recurrent non-glioma CpG island methylator phenotype (G-CIMP) glioblastoma (n = 12, log-rank P = .023), but not in glioblastoma as a group (n = 444, log-rank P = .135). PD-L1 RISH showed a significant correlation with IHC (P < .0001). PD-L1 was observed in the proliferating perivascular stem cell and immune niche of post-treatment glioblastoma.ConclusionA 5% PD-L1 expression cut-off identified a subset of glioblastoma that is associated with a worse clinical outcome. This association remained significant within the newly defined IDH-wildtype classification. These findings could have implications for patient stratification in future clinical trials of PD-1/PD-L1 blockade.
