ABSTRACT: We analyzed baseline and on-therapy tumor biopsies from 101 patients with advanced melanoma treated with nivolumab (anti-PD-1) alone or combined with ipilimumab (anti-CTLA-4). Analysis of whole transcriptome data showed that T cell infiltration and interferon-gamma signaling signatures corresponded most highly with clinical response to therapy, with a reciprocal decrease in cell cycle and WNT signaling pathways in responding biopsies. Clinical outcome differences were likely not due to differential melanoma cell responses to interferon-gamma, as 57 human melanoma cell lines exposed in vitro to this cytokine showed a conserved interferon-gamma transcriptome response unless they had mutations that precluded signaling from the interferon-gamma receptor. Therefore, the magnitude of the antitumor T cell response and the corresponding downstream interferon-gamma signaling are the main drivers of clinical response or resistance to immune checkpoint blockade therapy.

Conserved interferon-gamma signaling and decreased immune exclusion programs in responses to immune checkpoint blockade therapy

IFN-gamma signature-driven neoadjuvant domatinostat, nivolumab and ipilimumab in stage III melanoma – the DONIMI trial

Project description:Low baseline Interferon gamma (IFNg) response signature is associated with lack of response to neo-adjuvant anti-PD1 + anti-CTLA4 therapy in patients with melanoma. Domatinostat, a class I specific histone deacetylase inhibitor is known to induce IFNg response in patients with advanced stage melanoma. Thus, addition of domatinostat to anti-PD1 + anti-CTLA4 might result in increased response to treatment. However, the effect of this combination therapy on tumor growth has not been evaluated in the pre-clinical setting. We therefore evaluated whether addition of domatinostat results in immune modulation and tumor growth control in the MeVa2.1.dOVA murine melanoma model. We provide pre-clinical evidence to use this combination in melanoma patients.

Multi-Omics and Informatics Analysis of FFPE Tissues Derived from Melanoma Patients with Long/Short Responses to Anti-PD1 Therapy Reveals Pathways of Response

Project description:Anti-PD-1 based immune therapies are thought to be dependent on antigen processing and presentation mechanisms. To characterize the immune-dependent mechanisms that predispose stage III/IV melanoma patients to respond to anti-PD-1 therapies, we performed a multi-omics study consisting of expression proteomics and targeted immune-oncology-based mRNA sequencing. Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue samples were obtained from stage III/IV patients with melanoma prior to anti-PD-1 therapy. The patients were first stratified into poor and good responders based on whether their tumors had or had not progressed while on anti-PD-1 therapy for 1 year. We identified 263 protein/gene candidates that displayed differential expression, of which 223 were identified via proteomics and 40 via targeted-mRNA analyses. The downstream analyses of expression profiles using MetaCore software demonstrated an enrichment of immune system pathways involved in antigen processing/presentation and cytokine production/signaling. Pathway analyses showed interferon (IFN)-γ-mediated signaling via NF-κB and JAK/STAT pathways to affect immune processes in a cell-specific manner and to interact with the inducible nitric oxide synthase. We review these findings within the context of available literature on the efficacy of anti-PD-1 therapy. The comparison of good and poor responders, using efficacy of PD-1-based therapy at 1 year, elucidated the role of antigen presentation in mediating response or resistance to anti-PD-1 blockade.

Molecular patterns of resistance to immune checkpoint blockade in melanoma [scRNA-Seq]

Project description:Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has improved outcome for patients with metastatic melanoma but not all benefit from treatment. Several immune- and tumor intrinsic features are associated with clinical response at baseline. However, we need to further understand the molecular changes occurring during development of ICB resistance. Here, we collected biopsies from a cohort of 44 melanoma patients after progression to anti-CTLA4 or anti-PD1 monotherapy. Genetic alterations of antigen presentation and interferon gamma signaling pathways were observed in approximately 25% of ICB resistant cases. Anti-CTLA4 resistant lesions had a sustained immune response, including immune-regulatory features, as suggested by multiplex spatial and TCR clonality analyses. One anti-PD1 resistant lesion harbored a distinct immune cell niche, however, anti-PD1 resistant tumors were generally immune poor with non-expanded TCR clones. Such immune poor microenvironments were associated with melanoma cells having a de-differentiated phenotype lacking expression of MHC-I molecules. In addition, anti-PD1 resistant tumors had reduced fractions of PD1+ CD8+ T cells as compared to ICB naïve metastases. Collectively, these data show the complexity of ICB resistance and highlight differences between anti-CTLA4 and anti-PD1 resistance that may underlie differential clinical outcomes of therapy sequence and combination.

ULK1 as a novel therapeutic target to enhance immune checkpoint therapies against melanoma

Project description:Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have transformed the treatment of melanoma. However, the majority of patients have primary or acquired resistance to ICIs, limiting durable responses and patient survival. Interferon-gamma (IFNg) signaling and the expression of IFNg-stimulated genes correlate with either response or resistance to ICIs, in a context-dependent manner. While IFNg-inducible immunostimulatory genes are required for response to ICIs, chronic IFNg signaling induces the expression of immunosuppressive genes, promoting resistance to these therapies. Here, we show that high levels of ULK1 correlate with poor survival in melanoma patients and overexpression of ULK1 in melanoma cells enhances IFNg-induced expression of immunosuppressive genes, with minimal effects on the expression of immunostimulatory genes. In contrast, genetic or pharmacological inhibition of ULK1 reduces expression of IFNg-induced immunosuppressive genes. ULK1 binds IRF1 in the nuclear compartment of melanoma cells, controlling its binding to the PD-L1 promoter region. Additionally, pharmacological inhibition of ULK1 in combination with anti-PD-1 therapy further reduces melanoma tumor growth and enhances anti-tumor immune responses in vivo. Our data suggest that targeting ULK1 represses IFNg-dependent immunosuppression. These findings support the combination of ULK1 drug-targeted inhibition with ICIs for the treatment of melanoma patients to improve response rates and patient outcomes.

Genetic Analysis of Tumor Samples

Project description:<p>Antibody blockade of the inhibitory CTLA-4 pathway has led to clinical benefit in a subset of patients with metastatic melanoma. Anti-CTLA-4 enhances T cell responses, including production of IFN-γ, which is a critical cytokine for host immune responses. However, the role of IFN-γ signaling in tumor cells in the setting of anti-CTLA-4 therapy remains unknown. Here we demonstrate that, based upon exome sequencing data, patients identified as non-responders to anti-CTLA-4 (ipilimumab) harbor a much higher genomic defects in the IFN-γ pathway genes than melanoma patients who had clinical response to ipilimumab therapy.</p>
