Programmed death (PD)-1/PD-ligand 1 blockade mediates antiangiogenic effects by tumor-derived CXCL10/11 as a potential predictive biomarker.

ABSTRACT: Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) programmed death (PD)-1/PD-ligand 1 (PD-L1) blockade has been approved for various cancers. However, the underlying antitumor mechanisms mediated by ICIs and the predictive biomarkers remain unclear. We report the effects of anti-PD-L1/PD-1 Ab in tumor angiogenesis. In syngeneic mouse models, anti-PD-L1 Ab inhibited tumor angiogenesis and induces net-like hypoxia only in ICI-sensitive cell lines. In tumor tissue and serum of ICI-sensitive cell line-bearing mice, interferon-γ (IFN-γ) inducible angiostatic chemokines CXCL10/11 were upregulated by PD-L1 blockade. In vitro, CXCL10/11 gene upregulation by IFN-γ stimulation in tumor cell lines correlated with the sensitivity of PD-L1 blockade. The CXCL10/11 receptor CXCR3-neutralizing Ab or CXCL11 silencing in tumor cells inhibited the antiangiogenic effect of PD-L1 blockade in vivo. In pretreatment serum of lung carcinoma patients receiving anti-PD-1 Ab, the concentration of CXCL10/11 significantly correlated with the clinical outcome. Our results indicate the antiangiogenic function of PD-1/PD-L1 blockade and identify tumor-derived CXCL10/11 as a potential circulating biomarker of therapeutic sensitivity.

PD-1 checkpoint blockade in advanced melanoma patients: NK cells, monocytic subsets and host PD-L1 expression as predictive biomarker candidates.

Project description:Blockade of the PD-1 receptor has revolutionized the treatment of metastatic melanoma, with significant increases in overall survival (OS) and a dramatic improvement in patient quality of life. Despite the success of this approach, the number of benefitting patients is limited and there is a need for predictive biomarkers as well as a deeper mechanistic analysis of the cellular populations involved in clinical responses. With the aim to find predictive biomarkers for PD-1 checkpoint blockade, an in-depth immune monitoring study was conducted in 36 advanced melanoma patients receiving pembrolizumab or nivolumab treatment at Karolinska University Hospital. Blood samples were collected before treatment and before administration of the second and fourth doses. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were isolated and stained for flow cytometric analysis within 2 h of sample collection. Overall survival and progression-free survival (PFS) were inversely correlated with CD69 expression NK cells. In the myeloid compartment, high frequencies of non-classical monocytes and low frequencies of monocytic myeloid derived suppressor cells (MoMDSCs) correlated with response rates and OS. A deeper characterization of monocytic subsets showed that PD-L1 expression in MDSCs, non-classical and intermediate monocytes was significantly increased in patients with shorter PFS in addition to correlating inversely with OS. Our results suggest that cellular populations other than T cells can be critical in the outcome of PD-1 blockade treatment. Specifically, the frequencies of activated NK cells and monocytic subsets are inversely correlated with survival and clinical benefit, suggesting that their role as predictive biomarkers should be further evaluated.

PD-L1 expression on circulating tumor cells can be a predictive biomarker to PD-1 inhibitors combined with radiotherapy and antiangiogenic therapy in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.

Project description:AimA programmed death 1 (PD-1) inhibitor coupled with radiotherapy and antiangiogenic therapy is a potential therapeutic strategy for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We aimed to determine if circulating tumor cells (CTCs) positive for programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) could be employed as a predictive biomarker in HCC patients receiving triple therapy.MethodsIn this study, HCC patients received a PD-1 inhibitor in combination with intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and antiangiogenic therapy. Following IMRT, the PD-1 inhibitor was administrated once every 3 weeks, while the antiangiogenic drug was given once a day. Treatment was continued until the disease progressed. Two mL of peripheral blood was collected at baseline, 1 month, and 3 months after treatment for CTC enrichment using the CytoSorter® system with a CytoSorter™ CTC PD-L1 Kit (Watson Biotech., China).ResultA total of 47 HCC patients receiving the triple therapy were enrolled in this study. Patients with < 2 PD-L1+ CTCs at baseline had a higher objective response rate (ORR) and longer overall survival (OS) than those with ≥ 2 PD-L1+ CTCs (56.5% vs. 16.7%, p = 0.007; not reach vs. 10.8 months, p = 0.001, respectively). The count of PD-L1+ CTCs was found to be an independent predictive biomarker of OS. Furthermore, the objective response was more likely to be achieved in patients with a dynamic decrease in PD-L1+ CTC counts at 1 month after treatment.ConclusionsOur study demonstrated that PD-L1+ CTCs could be a predictive biomarker for HCC patients receiving PD-1 inhibitors in combination with IMRT and antiangiogenic therapy.

RAD51Bme Levels as a Potential Predictive Biomarker for PD-1 Blockade Response in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.

Project description:Lung cancer (LC) cells frequently express high levels of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1). Although these levels grossly correlate with the likelihood of response to specific checkpoint inhibitors, the response prediction is rather imperfect, and more accurate predictive biomarkers are mandatory. We examined the methylation profile of RAD51B (RAD51Bme) as a candidate predictive biomarker for anti-PD-1 therapy efficacy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), correlating with patients' outcome. PD-L1 immunoexpression and RAD51Bme levels were analysed in NSCLC samples obtained from patients not treated with anti-PD-1 (Untreated Cohort (#1)) and patients treated with PD-1 blockade (Treated Cohort (#2)). Of a total of 127 patients assessed, 58.3% depicted PD-L1 positivity (PD-L1+). RAD51Bme levels were significantly associated with PD-L1 immunoexpression. Patients with PD-1 blockade clinical benefit disclosed higher RAD51Bme levels (p = 0.0390) and significantly lower risk of disease progression (HR 0.37; 95% CI: 0.15-0.88; p = 0.025). Combining RAD51Bme+ with PD-L1+ improved the sensitivity of the test to predict immunotherapy response. PD-L1+ was also associated with lower risk of death (HR 0.35; 95% CI: 0.15-0.81; p = 0.014). Thus, RAD51Bme levels might be combined with validated predictive biomarker PD-L1 immunostaining to select patients who will most likely experience clinical benefit from PD-1 blockade. The predictive value of RAD51Bme should be confirmed in prospective studies.

Programmed death-ligand 1 expression in swine chronic infections and enhancement of interleukin-2 production via programmed death-1/programmed death-ligand 1 blockade.

Project description:IntroductionChronic infections lead to the functional exhaustion of T cells. Exhausted T cells are phenotypically differentiated by the surface expression of the immunoinhibitory receptor, such as programmed death-1 (PD-1). The inhibitory signal is produced by the interaction between PD-1 and its PD-ligand 1 (PD-L1) and impairs the effector functions of T cells. However, the expression dynamics of PD-L1 and the immunological functions of the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway in chronic diseases of pigs are still poorly understood. In this study, we first analyzed the expression of PD-L1 in various chronic infections in pigs, and then evaluated the immune activation by the blocking assay targeting the swine PD-1/PD-L1 pathway.MethodsIn the initial experiments, anti-bovine PD-L1 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were tested for cross-reactivity with swine PD-L1. Subsequently, immunohistochemical analysis was conducted using the anti-PD-L1 mAb. Finally, we assessed the immune activation of swine peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) by the blockade with anti-PD-L1 mAb.ResultsSeveral anti-PD-L1 mAbs tested recognized swine PD-L1-expressing cells. The binding of swine PD-L1 protein to swine PD-1 was inhibited by some of these cross-reactive mAbs. In addition, immunohistochemical analysis revealed that PD-L1 was expressed at the site of infection in chronic infections of pigs. The PD-L1 blockade increased the production of interleukin-2 from swine PBMCs.ConclusionsThese findings suggest that the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway could be also involved in immunosuppression in chronic infections in pigs. This study provides a new perspective on therapeutic strategies for chronic diseases in pigs by targeting immunosuppressive pathways.

Fragment-based screening of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1).

Project description:The PD-1 immune checkpoint pathway is a highly validated target for cancer immunotherapy. Despite the potential advantages of small molecule inhibitors over antibodies, the discovery of small molecule checkpoint inhibitors has lagged behind. To discover small molecule inhibitors of the PD-1 pathway, we have utilized a fragment-based approach. Small molecules were identified that bind to PD-L1 and crystal structures of these compounds bound to PD-L1 were obtained.

Soluble PD-L1 is a predictive and prognostic biomarker in advanced cancer patients who receive immune checkpoint blockade treatment.

Project description:Circulating soluble programmed death-1 ligand (sPD-L1) is measurable in the serum of cancer patients. This study aimed to investigate the significance of sPD-L1 in cancer patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Blood samples were obtained before and after immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy (January 2015 to January 2019). The study cohort consisted of 128 patients who were diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer (n = 50), melanoma (n = 31), small cell lung cancer (n = 14), urothelial carcinoma (n = 13), and other cancers (n = 20). Patients with a high level (> 11.0 pg/μL) of sPD-L1 were more likely to exhibit progressive disease compared with those with a low level (41.8% versus 20.7%, p = 0.013). High sPD-L1 was also associated with worse prognosis; the median PFS was 2.9 (95% confidence interval [CI] 2.1-3.7) months versus 6.3 (95% CI 3.0-9.6) months (p = 0.023), and the median OS was 7.4 (95% CI 6.3-8.5) months versus 13.3 (95% CI 9.2-17.4) months (p = 0.005). In the multivariate analyses, high sPD-L1 was an independent prognostic factor for both decreased PFS (HR 1.928, p = 0.038) and OS (HR 1.788, p = 0.004). sPD-L1 levels did not correlate with tissue PD-L1 expression. However, sPD-L1 levels were positively correlated with neutrophil to lymphocyte ratios and negatively correlated with both the proportion and the total number of lymphocytes. We found that high pretreatment sPD-L1 levels were associated with progressive disease and were an independent prognostic factor predicting lower PFS and OS in these patients.

Leukocyte-associated immunoglobulin-like receptor-1 blockade in combination with programmed death-ligand 1 targeting therapy mediates increased tumour control in mice.

Project description:Collagen expression and structure in the tumour microenvironment are associated with tumour development and therapy response. Leukocyte-associated immunoglobulin-like receptor-1 (LAIR-1) is a widely expressed inhibitory collagen receptor. LAIR-2 is a soluble homologue of LAIR-1 that competes for collagen binding. Multiple studies in mice implicate blockade of LAIR-1:collagen interaction in cancer as a promising therapeutic strategy. Here, we investigated the role of LAIR-1 in anti-tumour responses. We show that although LAIR-1 inhibits activation, proliferation, and cytokine production of mouse T cells in vitro, tumour outgrowth in LAIR-1-deficient mice did not differ from wild type mice in several in vivo tumour models. Furthermore, treatment with NC410, a LAIR-2-Fc fusion protein, did not result in increased tumour clearance in tested immunocompetent mice, which contrasts with previous data in humanized mouse models. This discrepancy may be explained by our finding that NC410 blocks human LAIR-1:collagen interaction more effectively than mouse LAIR-1:collagen interaction. Despite the lack of therapeutic impact of NC410 monotherapy, mice treated with a combination of NC410 and anti-programmed death-ligand 1 did show reduced tumour burden and increased survival. Using LAIR-1-deficient mice, we showed that this effect seemed to be dependent on the presence of LAIR-1. Taken together, our data demonstrate that the absence of LAIR-1 signalling alone is not sufficient to control tumour growth in multiple immunocompetent mouse models. However, combined targeting of LAIR-1 and PD-L1 results in increased tumour control. Thus, additional targeting of the LAIR-1:collagen pathway with NC410 is a promising approach to treating tumours where conventional immunotherapy is ineffective.

Chemokine C-C motif ligand 21 synergized with programmed death-ligand 1 blockade restrains tumor growth.

Project description:Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) blockade has revolutionized the prognosis of several cancers, but shows a weak effect on pancreatic cancer (PC) due to poor effective immune infiltration. Chemokine C-C motif ligand 21 (CCL21), a chemokine promoting T cell immunity by recruiting and colocalizing dendritic cells (DCs) and T cells, serves as a potential antitumor agent in many cancers. However, its antitumor response and mechanism combined with PD-L1 blockade in PC remain unclear. In our study, we found CCL21 played an important role in leukocyte chemotaxis, inflammatory response, and positive regulation of PI3K-AKT signaling in PC using Metascape and gene set enrichment analysis. The CCL21 level was verified to be positively correlated with infiltration of CD8+ T cells by the CIBERSORT algorithm, but no significant difference in survival was observed in either The Cancer Genome Atlas or the International Cancer Genome Consortium cohort when stratified by CCL21 expression. Additionally, we found the growth rate of allograft tumors was reduced and T cell infiltration was increased, but tumor PD-L1 abundance elevated simultaneously in the CCL21-overexpressed tumors. Then, CCL21 was further verified to increase tumor PD-L1 level through the AKT-glycogen synthase kinase-3β axis in human PC cells, which partly impaired the antitumor T cell immunity. Finally, the combination of CCL21 and PD-L1 blockade showed superior synergistic tumor suppression in vitro and in vivo. Together, our findings suggested that CCL21 in combination with PD-L1 blockade might be an efficient and promising option for the treatment of PC.

mRNA Display Discovery of a Novel Programmed Death Ligand 1 (PD-L1) Binding Peptide (a Peptide Ligand for PD-L1).

Project description:Programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) is a critical immune checkpoint ligand whose overexpression on tumor cells provides a mechanism of escape from immune surveillance. The interaction between PD-L1 and PD-1 on T cell lymphocytes suppresses both T cell activation and effector function and is engaged by cancers to dampen antitumor immunity. Here, we used mRNA display to engineer an 18-residue linear peptide that binds to human PD-L1. This peptide, which we term SPAM (signal peptide-based affinity maturated ligand), is nonhomologous to known PD-L1 binding peptides and mAbs, with dissociation constants (KD) of 119 and 67 nM for unglycosylated and glycosylated human PD-L1, respectively. The SPAM peptide is highly selective for human PD-L1 and shows no significant binding to either mouse PD-L1 or human PD-L2. Competition binding assays indicate that the SPAM peptide binding site overlaps with the binding site of PD-1 as well as therapeutic anti-PD-L1 antibodies. Taken together, these results suggest that the SPAM peptide specifically binds to human PD-L1 and could potentially serve as a PD-L1 affinity agent and PD-L1/PD-1 pathway modulator.
