ScRNAseq reveals mechanisms of Merkel cell carcinoma acquired immunotherapy resistance [1]

ABSTRACT: Serial blood draws from a single patient and serial tumor biopsies from the same patient with metastatic Merkel cell polyomavirus Merkel cell carcinoma, who was treated with cellular immunotherapy targeting MCPyV (autologous endogenous T cell therapy) followed by checkpoint inhibitors (anti-PD1 and anti-CTLA4). The patient had a 22 month clinical response followed by late/acquired resistance. We performed scRNAseq using the 10x genomics 3' Chromium expression assay to determine potential mechanisms contributing to immunotherapy response and late resistance
