Project description:Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) may represent a viable source of T cells for the biological treatment of patients with gliomas. Glioma tissue was obtained from 16 patients, tumor cell lines were established, and TILs were expanded in 16/16 cases using a combination of IL-2/IL-15/IL-21. Intracellular cytokine staining (ICS, IL-2, IL-17, TNFα and IFNγ production) as well as a cytotoxicity assay was used to detect TIL reactivity against autologous tumor cells or shared tumor-associated antigens (TAAs; i.e., NY-ESO-1, Survivin or EGFRvIII). TILs were analyzed by flow cytometry, including T-cell receptor (TCR) Vβ family composition, exhaustion/activation and T-cell differentiation markers (CD45RA/CCR7). IL-2/IL-15/IL-21 expanded TILs exhibited a mixture of CD4+, CD8+, as well as CD3+ CD4-CD8- T cells with a predominant central memory CD45RA-CCR7+ phenotype. TIL showed low frequencies of T cells testing positive for PD-1, TIM-3 and CTLA-4. LAG3 tested positive in up to 30% of CD8+ TIL, with low (1.25%) frequencies in CD4+ T cells. TIL cultures exhibited preferential usage of Vβ families and recognition of autologous tumor cells defined by cytokine production and cytotoxicity. IL-2/IL-15/IL-21 expanded TILs represent a viable source for the cellular therapy of patients with gliomas.

Project description:Microbial organisms play key roles in numerous physiological processes in the human body and have recently been shown to modify the response to cancer radiotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors. Here, we demonstrate that HLA molecules of both glioblastoma tissues as well as tumor cell lines present bacteria-specific peptides. This finding prompted us to examine whether tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) recognize intratumoral microbiota. Indeed, bacterial peptides eluted from HLA-DR II molecules are recognized by both TILs, albeit weakly, and peripheral blood-derived memory CD4+ T cells, which, upon stimulation with bacterial peptides, also recognize several tumor antigens. Furthermore, using an unbiased antigen discovery approach for a TIL CD4+ T cell clone (TCC) we show that it recognizes a broad spectrum of peptides from pathogenic bacteria, commensal gut microbiota and also glioblastoma-related tumor antigens. These peptides were strongly stimulatory for bulk TILs and peripheral blood memory cells. Our data hint at how bacterial pathogens and bacterial gut microbiota can be involved in specific immune recognition of tumor antigens.

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: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:Tumor-infiltrating T lymphocytes (TILS) plays a pivotal role in immunotherapy, but the dynamic relationships of the T cells reacted on the therapy remains elusive. T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire, serving as lineage tags, could track these tumor-infiltrating T lymphocytes. Here, in order to deconvolve TILS heterogeneity after therapy in a comprehensive catalog, we presented single T-cell analysis by RNA-seq and TCR tracking of a 22,590 T cells from colorectal carcinoma under control conditions and during Stellera chamaejasme and anti-PD-1 activation. We reveal a highly complex microenvironment which profoundly molds T lymphocytes, as well as the combinatorial impact of TCR utilization on phenotypic diversity. scRNA-seq identified distinct CD8 T cells subtypes CD8 naïve and CD8 cytoxic cells(CD8 CTL), also, CD4 T cell subpopulations Regulatory T(Tregs) cells and T helper cell 17(Th-17). Stellera chamaejasme activation triggered CTSW, ICOS, etc. in CD8 T cells, whose the dramatic differentiation into from a single time point. At the same time, Stellera chamaejasme plus anti-PD-1 therapy have a strikingly effect on the balance between Tregs and Th-17. Our integrated analyses provide a powerful avenue to disclose the TILS in CRC based on TCR and demonstrate novel functional interactions among TILS subpopulations during Stellera chamaejasme plus anti-PD-1 therapy.

Project description:BackgroundThe morphological evaluation of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in breast cancer (BC) is gaining momentum as evidence strengthens for the clinical relevance of this immunological biomarker. Accumulating evidence suggests that the extent of lymphocytic infiltration in tumor tissue can be assessed as a major parameter by evaluation of hematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained tumor sections. TILs have been shown to provide prognostic and potentially predictive value, particularly in triple-negative and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-overexpressing BC.DesignA standardized methodology for evaluating TILs is now needed as a prerequisite for integrating this parameter in standard histopathological practice, in a research setting as well as in clinical trials. This article reviews current data on the clinical validity and utility of TILs in BC in an effort to foster better knowledge and insight in this rapidly evolving field, and to develop a standardized methodology for visual assessment on H&E sections, acknowledging the future potential of molecular/multiplexed approaches.ConclusionsThe methodology provided is sufficiently detailed to offer a uniformly applied, pragmatic starting point and improve consistency and reproducibility in the measurement of TILs for future studies.

Project description:Adoptive cell therapy using tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) is arguably the most effective treatment for patients with metastatic melanoma. With higher response rates than ipilimumab or IL-2, and longer durations of response than vemurafenib, TIL therapy carries the potential to transform current outcomes in melanoma, while also defining the way cell-based immunotherapy gets incorporated into mainstream cancer treatment. This paper will review the current state of TIL therapy in melanoma, the strategies to improve its efficacy, the current obstacles, and future directions to expand the availability of TIL to the general patient population.
