Project description:Adoptive T-cell Therapy (ACT) involves using tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) isolated from metastatic melanoma and expanding them ex vivo prior to infusion into lympho-depleted patients. This is one of the most promising approaches to treat metastatic melanoma, with the rates of clinical response between 48-50% based on studies done at NCI, M.D. Anderson Cancer Center (Houston, TX), and Sheba Medical Center (Tel Aviv, Israel). In the Phase II ACT Trial at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center , our group has uncovered an association between positive clinical response and the amount of CD8+ tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes expressing B and T Lymphocyte Attenuator (BTLA), a reported inhibitory receptor on T-cells. We used microarrays to detail the differences in the global programme of gene expression between CD8+BTLA+ vs CD8+BTLA- TILs in order to understand the molecular basis of the clinical association. TILs were isolated by enzymatically digest the melanoma tumor fragments obtained from Stage IIIc/IV melanoma patients at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. The TILs were expanded with high-dose IL-2 for two weeks prior to sorting by FACS (fluoresecence-activated cell sorter) for CD8+BTLA+ and CD8+BTLA- susbets. RNA was extracted from each sorted subsets and hybridized on Affymetrix microarrays

Project description:Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) based on ex vivo expanded autologous tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) can mediate durable antitumor responses even in heavily pretreated patients. However, only a subset of patients responds to ACT; efforts to identify correlates of response have focused on profiling the tumor or the TIL but rarely in an interactive environment. Interactive profiling can provide unique insights into the clinical performance of TILs since the fate, function, and metabolism of TILs are influenced by autologous tumor-derived factors. Here, we performed a suite of cell-sparing assays dubbed holistic analysis of the bioactivity of interacting T cells and autologous tumor cells (HABITAT). HABITAT profiling of TILs used for human ACT and their autologous tumor cells included function-based single-cell profiling by timelapse imaging microscopy in nanowell grids (TIMING); multi-omics using RNA-sequencing and proteomics; metabolite inference using genome-scale metabolic modeling, and pulse-chase assays based on confocal microscopy to profile the uptake and fate of fatty acids (FA). Phenotypically, the ACT TILs from both responders (Rs) and nonresponders (NRs) were comprised of predominantly effector memory T cells (TEM cells) and did not express a high frequency of programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) and showed no differences in TCR diversity. Our results demonstrate that while tumor cells from both Rs and NRs are efficient at uptaking FAs, R TILs are significantly more efficient at utilizing FA through fatty acid oxidation (FAO) than NR TILs under nutrient starvation conditions. While it is likely that lipid and FA uptake is an inherent adaptation of TIL populations to lipid-rich environments, performing FAO sustains the survival of TILs and allows them to sustain antitumor cytolytic activity. We propose that metabolic plasticity enabling FAO is a desirable attribute of human TILs for ACT leading to clinical responses.

Project description:This analysis reveals the different gene expression profiles between human melanoma tumor infiltrating lymphocytes subsets CD8+CD28+ and CD8+CD28-. Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) is an effective approach that removes tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) from this suppressive tumor microenvironment and expands and activates CD8+ and CD4+ T cells in vitro, differentiating them into potent anti-tumor effector cells that can be re-introduced back into patients. One of the key problems that may limit tumor regression and long-term durable clinical responses in ACT is the persistence of TILs following infusion. Our study has indicated that ex vivo expanded TILs to be hypo-responsive to peptide re-stimulation, manifested in slow entry into cell cycle and increased apoptosis. Phenotypic and functional analysis using a number of different T-cell differentiation markers found that CD28 was markedly down-modulated in post-REP cells, while CD27 and CD57 levels showed no statistically-relevant changes in expression. Here on a global gene expression level, microarray gene chip analysis of sorted CD8+CD28+ and CD8+CD28- post-REP TILs revealed a number of key differences in their gene expression profiles; notably, an increase in KIR family member expression, loss of p53-binding proteins, and lower CD127/IL-7Ra gene expression found in the CD28- population. On top of advancing T cell phenotype, reactivation and memory, this set of data may also provide insight for ACT clinical protocol optimization to improve TIL response in vivo.

Project description:Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) using in vitro expanded tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) has inconsistent clinical responses. To better understand determinants of therapeutic success, we tracked TIL clonotypes from baseline tumors to ACT products and post-ACT blood and tumor samples in melanoma patients using single-cell RNA and T cell receptor (TCR) sequencing. Patients with clinical responses had baseline tumors enriched in tumor-reactive TILs, and these were more effectively mobilized upon in vitro expansion, yielding products enriched in tumor-specific CD8+ cells that preferentially infiltrated tumors post-ACT. Conversely, lack of clinical responses was associated with tumors devoid of tumor-reactive resident clonotypes and with cell products mostly composed of blood-borne clonotypes that persisted in blood but not in tumors post-ACT. Upon expansion, tumor-specific TILs lost tumor-associated transcriptional signatures, including exhaustion, and responders exhibited an intermediate exhausted effector state after TIL engraftment in the tumor, suggesting functional reinvigoration. Our findings provide insight into the nature and dynamics of tumor-specific clonotypes associated with clinical response to TIL-ACT, with implications for treatment optimization.

Project description:The optimal T cell attributes for the adoptive immunotherapy of cancer and viral diseases are currently unclear. Recent adoptive transfer clinical trials using ex vivo expanded tumor infiltrating lymphocytes has provided evidence that differentiated effector T cells can mediate durable responses in selected cancer patients. The capacity of these transferred cells to persist in the host was found to strongly correlate with their clinical activity. Thus, there is significant interest in identifying intrinsic markers that define antigen specific effector T cells that can develop into long-lived memory cells rather than undergoing apoptosis after infusion in humans. We recently reported the long term persistence of ex vivo expanded tumor specific CD8+ T effector clones in refractory metastatic melanoma patients after adoptive T cell transfer. By utilizing these highly homogeneous clone populations, we sought to define the pre-infusion cellular and molecular attributes associated with their effector to memory transition. Comparative transcriptional profiling found the pre-infusion clone mRNA expression levels of the IL-7 receptor (IL-7Ra) and the proto-oncogene, c-myc, directly correlated with the level of clonal persistence after adoptive transfer in humans. The predictive value of these markers was further established by utilizing IL-7R protein, induced pSTAT5, and c-myc mRNA expression to prospectively identify human tumor specific effector clones that could engraft after controlled adoptive transfer into highly immunodeficient mice. These findings support that IL-7R and c-myc expression are valuable cell intrinsic markers that can predict the fate of effector CD8+ T cells after adoptive transfer. We used microarrays to compare the pre-infusion gene expression profile of melanoma-specific CD8+ T cell clones that would eventually either persist or not after adoptive transfer in humans. We derived ten melanoma-specific CD8+ T cell clones and determined their degree of persistence after adoptive therapy into patients. We performed microarray on the pre-infusion samples of six persisting and four non-persisting clones to obtain a comparative gene signature profile.

Project description:Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) using ex vivo–expanded tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) can eliminate or shrink metastatic melanoma, but its long-term efficacy remains limited to a fraction of patients. Using longitudinal samples from 13 patients with metastatic melanoma treated with TIL-ACT in a phase 1 clinical study, we interrogated cellular states within the tumor microenvironment (TME) and their interactions. We performed bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing, whole-exome sequencing, and spatial proteomic analyses in pre- and post-ACT tumor tissues, finding that ACT responders exhibited higher basal tumor cell–intrinsic immunogenicity and mutational burden. Compared with nonresponders, CD8+ TILs exhibited increased cytotoxicity, exhaustion, and costimulation, whereas myeloid cells had increased type I interferon signaling in responders. Cell-cell interaction prediction analyses corroborated by spatial neighborhood analyses revealed that responders had rich baseline intratumoral and stromal tumor–reactive T cell networks with activated myeloid populations. Successful TIL-ACT therapy further reprogrammed the myeloid compartment and increased TIL-myeloid networks. Our systematic target discovery study identifies potential T-myeloid cell network–based biomarkers that could improve patient selection and guide the design of ACT clinical trials.
