Project description:Purpose: To compare cell states between control Her2-BBz and JUN-overexpression Her2-BBz human CAR T cells in a mouse model of osteosarcoma. Methods: 8-week old NSG mice were implanted with 1 million 143B osteosarcoma tumor cells intramuscularly in the right leg. 14 days post tumor implantation, mice were infused intravenously with 10 million human CAR+ T cells via tail vein injection. Before T cell transfer, mice were randomized for tumor size and treated with either control Her2-BBz or JUN-overexpressing Her2-BBz CAR T cells. T cells were 70% CAR+ at infusion for both groups. 14 days post T cell treatment (day 28 post tumor engraftment), 6 mice per group were euthanized, solid tumor tissue was collected, mechanically dissociated, and single cell suspensions were labeled with human-CD45 antibody and viability dye. Live hCD45+ tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes were sorted from each tumor and 6 samples were pooled for each group. ~35,000-40,000 sorted live cells (counted post sort) for each group were delivered to the Stanford Functional Genomics Facility for 3' single-cell RNA-sequencing on the 10X Genomics platform. Results: We found that substantially more JUN-overexpressing Her2-BBz CAR T cells were within the G2/M and S phases of the cell cycle than control Her2-BBz CAR T cells, consistent with increased in vivo proliferation of JUN-Her2-BBz CAR T cells. Furthermore, JUN-Her2-BBz CAR T cells also demonstrated a more activated transcriptional program (as measured by IL2RA and CD38), while many exhaustion-associated genes were downregulated (PDCD1, BTLA, TIGIT, CD200, ENTPD1, NR4A2) compared to control Her2-BBz CAR T cells. Finally, a small cluster of cells characterized by high IL7R expression (IL7R+ KLF2+ CD27+ TCF7+ SELL+) was apparent in JUN-overexpressing but not in control Her2-BBz CAR T cells, consistent with maintenance of a memory-like population capable of self-renewal. Conclusions: This study provides insights into cell states that could explain the improved efficacy of JUN-overexpression Her2-BBz CAR T cells compared to control Her2-BBz CAR T cells in a mouse model of osteosarcoma.

Comment:
This is the first mathematical model, derived from equations 1 and 2, used in the paper.
Reproduction of Fig. 5a was achieved by setting alpha_1 = 0.04, different to the value quoted in the article caption for Fig. 5.
Abstract:
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell-based therapies have achieved substantial success against B-cell malignancies, which has led to a growing scientific and clinical interest in extending their use to solid cancers. However, results for solid tumours have been limited up to now, in part due to the immunosuppressive tumour microenvironment, which is able to inactivate CAR-T cell clones. In this paper we put forward a mathematical model describing the competition of CAR-T and tumour cells, taking into account their immunosuppressive capacity. Using the mathematical model, we show that the use of large numbers of CAR-T cells targetting the solid tumour antigens could overcome the immunosuppressive potential of cancer. To achieve such high levels of CAR-T cells we propose, and study computationally, the manufacture and injection of CAR-T cells targetting two antigens: CD19 and a tumour-associated antigen. We study in silico the resulting dynamics of the disease after the injection of this product and find that the expansion of the CAR-T cell population in the blood and lymphopoietic organs could lead to the massive production of an army of CAR-T cells targetting the solid tumour, and potentially overcoming its immune suppression capabilities. This strategy could benefit from the combination with PD-1 inhibitors and low tumour loads. Our computational results provide theoretical support for the treatment of different types of solid tumours using T cells engineered with combination treatments of dual CARs with on- and off-tumour activity and anti-PD-1 drugs after completion of classical cytoreductive treatments.

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains a particularly aggressive disease with few effective treatments. The PDAC tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) has been characterized as immune suppressed. Oncolytic viruses can increase tumor antigenicity via immunogenic cell death (ICD). In this study, tumor-targeting and cytokine-armed vaccinia viruses (vvDD, vvDD-IL2, vvDD-IL15) were used to infect carcinoma cell lines as well as patient-derived primary PDAC cells. In co-culture experiments we tested the cytotoxic response and the activation of human natural killer-(NK-)cells during the oncolytic process.

Project description:Previously we reported that a recombinant vaccinia virus (VACV) carrying a light-emitting fusion gene enters, replicates in, and reveals the locations of tumors in mice. A new recombinant VACV, GLV-1h68, as a simultaneous diagnostic and therapeutic agent, was constructed by inserting three expression cassettes (encoding Renilla luciferase-green fluorescent protein (RUC-GFP) fusion, b-galactosidase, and b-glucuronidase) into the F14.5L, J2R (encoding thymidine kinase, TK), and A56R (encoding hemagglutinin, HA) loci of the viral genome, respectively. Intravenous (i.v.) injections of GLV-1h68 (1 Ã 107 pfu/mouse) into nude mice with established (500 mm3) subcutaneous (s.c.) GI-101A human breast tumors were used to evaluate its toxicity, tumor targeting specificity and oncolytic efficacy. GLV-1h68 demonstrated an enhanced tumor targeting specificity and much reduced toxicity compared to its parental LIVP strains. The tumors colonized by GLV-1h68 exhibited growth, inhibition, and regression phases followed by tumor eradication within 130 days in 95% of the mice tested. Tumor regression in live animals was monitored in real time based on decreasing light emission, hence demonstrating the concept of a combined oncolytic virus-mediated tumor diagnosis and therapy system. Transcriptional profiling of regressing tumors based on a mouse-specific platform revealed gene expression signatures consistent with immune defense activation, inclusive of interferon stimulated genes (STAT-1 and IRF-7), cytokines, chemokines and innate immune effector function. These findings suggest that immune activation may combine with viral oncolysis to induce tumor eradication in this model, providing a novel perspective for the design of oncolytic viral therapies for human cancers. Objective: To determine the gene expression changes induced by GLV-1h68 vaccinia virus injection in mouse carrying human breast cancer implant and leading to tumor eradication. Methods: Gene expression was analyzed using oligonucleotide microarrays. Responsiveness to vaccina virus injection was assessed by toxicity and survival study, gene expression anaysis and tumor volume change. Result: The tumors colonized by GLV-1h68 exhibited growth, inhibition, and regression phases followed by tumor eradication within 130 days in 95% of the mice tested.

Project description:Immune evasion is a critical step of cancer progression that remains a major obstacle for current T cell-based immunotherapies. Hence, we seek to genetically reprogram T cells to exploit a common tumor-intrinsic evasion mechanism, whereby cancer cells suppress T cell function by generating a metabolically unfavorable tumor microenvironment (TME). Specifically, we use an in silico screen to identify ADA and PDK1 as metabolic regulators, in which gene overexpression (OE) enhances the cytolysis of CD19-specific CD8 CAR-T cells against cognate leukemia cells, and conversely, ADA or PDK1 deficiency dampens such effect. Additionally, ADA-OE in CAR-T cells improves cancer cytolysis under high concentrations of adenosine, the ADA substrate and an immunosuppressive metabolite in the TME. High-throughput transcriptomics and metabolomics in these CAR-Ts reveal alterations of global gene expression and metabolic signatures in both ADA- and PDK1- engineered CAR-T cells. Functional and immunological analyses demonstrate that ADA-OE increases proliferation and decreases exhaustion in α-CD19 and α-HER2 CAR-T cells. We then show ADA-OE improves tumor infiltration and clearance by α-HER2 CD4 and CD8 CAR-T with an in vivo colorectal cancer model. Collectively, these data unveil systematic knowledge of metabolic reprogramming directly in CAR-T cells, and reveal potential targets for improving CAR-T based cell therapy.

Project description:We found that overexpression of APOA1 in glioblastoma (GBM) promotes cholesterol efflux from TAMs and restores phagocytosis and antigen presentation. Therefore, we constructed a recombinant oncolytic adenovirus expressing APOA1 to carry the cholesterol regulatory elements of TAMs. AdV-APOA1 exhibited better antitumor effects than AdV-Ctrl in several orthotopic GBM tumor models. Further, we collected virus-treated GL261-CAR tumors for RNA-seq to reveal differences in biological processes between them. Specifically, intracranial 14-day GL261-CAR-bearing C57BL/6J mice were i.t. injected with 1 × 108 PFU AdV-Ctrl or 1 × 108 PFU AdV-APOA1. The tumor bulks were then collected to perform transcriptome RNA-seq analysis 3 days after virus injection.

Abstract:
Immunotherapies use components of the patient immune system to selectively target can- cer cells. The use of chimeric antigenic receptor (CAR) T cells to treat B-cell malignancies –leukaemias and lymphomas–is one of the most successful examples, with many patients experiencing long-lasting full responses to this therapy. This treatment works by extract- ing the patient’s T cells and transducing them with the CAR, enabling them to recognize and target cells carrying the antigen CD19 + , which is expressed in these haematological cancers. Here we put forward a mathematical model describing the time response of leukaemias to the injection of CAR T cells. The model accounts for mature and progenitor B-cells, leukaemic cells, CAR T cells and side effects by including the main biological processes involved. The model explains the early post-injection dynamics of the different compart- ments and the fact that the number of CAR T cells injected does not critically affect the treatment outcome. An explicit formula is found that gives the maximum CAR T cell ex- pansion in vivo and the severity of side effects. Our mathematical model captures other known features of the response to this immunotherapy. It also predicts that CD19 + cancer relapses could be the result of competition between leukaemic and CAR T cells, analogous to predator-prey dynamics. We discuss this in the light of the available evidence and the possibility of controlling relapses by early re-challenging of the leukaemia cells with stored CAR T cells.
