CD58 loss in tumor cells confers functional impairment of CAR T cells

ABSTRACT: Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy has achieved significant success in treating a variety of hematologic malignancies, but resistance to this treatment in some patients limited its wider application. Using an unbiased genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screening, we identified and validated loss of CD58 conferred immune evasion from CAR T cells in vitro and in vivo. CD58 is a ligand of the T cell costimulatory molecule CD2, and CD58 mutation or downregulated expression is common in hematological tumors. We found that disruption of CD58 in tumor cells induced the formation of suboptimal immunological synapse (IS) with CAR T cells, which conferred functional impairment of CAR T cells, including the attenuation of cell expansion, degranulation, cytokine secretion and cytotoxicity. In summary, we describe a potential mechanism of tumor intrinsic resistance to CAR T-cell therapy and suggest that this mechanism may be leveraged for developing therapeutic strategies to overcome resistance to CAR T-cell therapy in B-cell malignancies.

Phase separation of chimeric antigen receptor promotes immunological synapse maturation and persistent cytotoxicity

Project description:Major challenges of CAR-T cell therapy include poor antigen sensitivity and cell persistence. Here we report a solution to these issues by exploiting CAR phase separation. We found that incorporation of an engineered CD3e motif, EB6I, to the conventional 28Z or BBZ CAR induced self-phase separation through cation-π interactions. EB6I CAR can form a mature immunological synapse with CD2 corolla to transduce efficient antigen and costimulatory signaling, while its tonic signaling remains at low levels. Functionally, EB6I CAR-T cells exhibited improved signaling and cytoxicity against low-antigen tumor and persistent tumor killing function. In multiple primary and relapsed murine tumor models, EB6I CAR-T cells exerted better antitumor functions than conventional CAR-T cells against blood and solid cancers. This study thus unveils a new CAR engineering strategy to improve CAR-T cell immunity by leveraging molecular condensation and signaling integration.

Genome-wide CRISPR screen to identify CD58 regulators

Project description:The cell autonomous balance of immune-inhibitory and -stimulatory signals is a critical yet poorly understood process in cancer immune evasion. Using patient-derived co-culture models and humanized mouse models, we show that an intact CD58:CD2 interaction is necessary for anti-tumor immunity. Defects in this axis lead to multi-faceted immune evasion through impaired CD2-dependent T cell polyfunctionality, T cell exclusion, impaired intra-tumoral proliferation, and concurrent protein stabilization of PD-L1. We performed genome-scale CRISPR-Cas9 and CD58 co-immunoprecipitation mass spectrometry screens identifying CMTM6 as a key stabilizer of CD58, and show that CMTM6 is required for concurrent upregulation of PD-L1 in CD58 loss. Single-cell RNA-seq analysis of patient melanoma samples demonstrates that most TILs maintain strong CD2 expression, thus providing an opportunity to mobilize a so far therapeutically untapped pool of TILs for anti-tumor immunity. We identify two potential therapeutic avenues, including rescued activation of human CD2-expressing TILs using recombinant CD58 protein, and targeted disruption of PD-L1/CMTM6 interactions. Our work identifies an underappreciated yet critical axis at the nexus of cancer immunity and evasion, uncovers a fundamental mechanism of co-inhibitory and -stimulatory signal balancing, and provides new approaches to improving cancer immunotherapies.

Role of adhesion receptors in mast cell disease-evolution

Project description:Systemic mastocytosis (SM) is an incurable neoplasm characterized by abnormal accumulation of neoplastic mast cells (MC) in vascularized organs. In indolent SM, MC express several different adhesion-molecules including CD2 and CD58, and form focal tissue-aggregates, whereas in advanced SM, MC often lack CD2 and produce a more diffuse infiltration-pattern. To explore the functional role of CD2 in the pathology of SM, stable CD2+ and CD2− subclones of the human MC-leukemia cell line HMC-1 were generated and injected intraperitoneally into pfp/rag2 mice. CD2+ HMC-1 cells formed solid mastocytomas in the peritoneum and lungs, whereas CD2− cells produced diffuse infiltration. CD2+ and CD2− HMC-1 subclones all displayed the driver-mutant KIT D816V, exhibited the same growth-kinetics, and displayed identical adhesion-receptors including CD44 and selectin-ligands. To explore the mechanism of organ invasion, E- and P-selectin-deficient scid mice (scid-select) were employed. While massive HMC-1 infiltrates were detected in the lungs of control mice, infiltration was markedly reduced or absent in scid-select mice. The invasion-receptor CD44 was detectable in all MC infiltrates, with most abundant expression in the invasion-front. Together, our data show that selectins mediate organ-invasion of MC and CD2-CD58 interactions contribute to a more focal infiltration-pattern which is lost during progression to MC leukemia. HMC1 cells were sorted by FACS for expression of CD2 surface expression. 2 subclones were obtained (CD2+ or CD2-) and compared by gene expression profiling using U133 plus 2.0 GeneChips

Concert between cytokines and costimulatory domains to optimize chimeric antigen receptor immunotherapy in neuroblastoma model

Project description:Adoptive T cell therapy with gene-modified T cells expressing chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) is a rapidly growing field of translational medicine and recently has shown dramatic therapeutic success in the treatment of B-cell malignancies. However, challenges to achieve similar response in patients harboring solid tumour are still considerable. To achieve anti-tumor efficacy, these cells must survive, expand and persist after infusion into patients. An important lesson has been derived from clinical trials using CAR technologies: the relevance of the CAR design to enhance signaling and sustain T cell proliferation and survival. Here, we prove that third generation CARs specific for GD2 antigen incorporating CD28.4-1BB costimulatory domains improves T cell immunotherapy in a neuroblastoma (NB) pre-clinical model, as compared to a CAR with the same specificity but including CD28.OX40 costimulation. Indeed, we test the anti-tumor activity of polyclonal T cells genetically modified with third generation CAR.GD2 incorporating either CD28.4-1BB or CD28.OX40 in frame with the safety switch inducible Caspase 9 (iC9). We prove a significant in vitro and in vivo amelioration of the approach by the presence of 4.1BB signaling in terms of: 1) less T cell exhaustion, 2) lower basal T cell activation, 3) higher in vivo tumor control and 4) T cell persistence. In addition, the fine tuning of T cell culture conditions with the use of IL7 and IL15 show to be synergic with the third generation CAR.GD2 design to optimize CAR T immunotherapy for NB. Our results provide a proof-of-concept for the need to optimize not only CAR construct design but also T cell culture conditions in order to boost T cell activity in vivo.

Chimeric Antigen Receptors with a MyD88 and CD40 costimulatory endodomain endow T cells with superior antitumor activity

Project description:CAR T-cell therapy for solid tumors has shown limited efficacy in early phase clinical studies. The majority of CARs encode CD28 and/or 41BB costimulatory endodomains and we explored here if MyD88 and CD40 (MC) costimulatory endodomains in CARs improve their antitumor activity. We generated CD28-, 41BB-, and MC-CAR T-cells and demonstrate that MC-CAR T-cells have greater proliferative capacity and antitumor activity in repeat stimulation assays and in tumor models in vivo. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that MC-CAR T-cells expressed higher levels of MYB and FOXM1, key cell cycle regulators, and are activated at base line. After stimulation, MC-CAR T-cells remain in a less differentiated state than CD28- and 41BB-CAR T-cells as judged by low levels of TBET and BLIMP1 expression, and lower cytolytic activity in comparison to CD28- and 41BB-CAR T-cells. Thus, including MyD88 and CD40 signaling domains in CARs may improve current CAR T-cell therapy approaches for solid tumors.

Global phosphoproteomic analysis of signaling by distinct chimeric antigen receptors reveals kinetic and quantitative differences that influence cell function

Project description:Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) are synthetic proteins that redirect T cell specificity by linking an extracellular ligand binding domain to intracellular T cell signaling domains. CAR-expressing T (CAR-T) cells have demonstrated significant efficacy for the treatment of refractory B cell malignancies and are being evaluated as immunotherapeutic reagents for many other cancers. CAR designs are based on the fundamental principles of TCR recognition and most CARs employ the T cell-activating CD3z endodomain alongside a costimulatory domain from CD28 or 4-1BB. However, emerging data suggest that CD28/CD3z and 4-1BB/CD3z signaling modules promote divergent metabolic pathways, gene expression programs, and cell fates. To determine how CAR phosphoprotein signaling drives these disparate cell fates, we analyzed CAR ligation-induced signaling networks in primary human T cells using shotgun mass spectrometry. We isolated CD8+CD62L+ T cells from healthy donors and introduced a CD28/CD3z or 4-1BB/CD3z CAR by lentiviral transduction. Transduced T cells were purified by FACS and expanded once in vitro. When the cells returned to a resting state, CD28/CD3z or 4-1BB/CD3z CAR-T cells were stimulated for 10 or 45 minutes with magnetic microbeads coated with a monoclonal antibody specific for a 9 amino acid tag in the CAR extracellular sequence. CAR-T cells were also left unstimulated for 10 or 45 minutes to serve as controls. Altogether, 8 unique conditions were tested in an experiment and three independent experiments were performed.

The CD58:CD2 axis is co-regulated with PD-L1 via CMTM6 and shapes anti-tumor immunity

Project description:The cell-autonomous balance of immune-inhibitory and -stimulatory signals is a critical process in cancer immune evasion. Using patient-derived co-cultures, humanized mouse models, and single cell RNA-sequencing of patient melanomas biopsied before and on immune checkpoint blockade, we find that intact cancer-cell-intrinsic expression of CD58 and ligation to CD2 is required for anti-tumor immunity and is predictive of treatment response. Defects in this axis promote immune evasion through diminished T cell activation, impaired intratumoral T cell infiltration and proliferation, and concurrently increased PD-L1 protein stabilization. Through CRISPR-Cas9 and proteomics screens, we identify and validate CMTM6 as critical for CD58 maintenance and upregulation of PD-L1 upon CD58 loss. Competition by CD58 and PD-L1 for CMTM6 (via both extracellular loop domains) determines their rate of endosomal recycling over lysosomal degradation. Overall, we describe an underappreciated yet critical axis of cancer immunity and provide a molecular basis for how cancer cells balance immune inhibitory and stimulatory cues.

Comparative analysis of T cell receptor and chimeric antigen receptor signaling in primary CD8+ T cells

Project description:Chimeric antigen receptor-modified (CAR) T cell therapy targeting highly expressed lineage antigens is effective for B cell malignancies. Achieving durable efficacy for hematological malignancies and extending this therapeutic approach to solid tumors will require T cell recognition and elimination of tumor cells that may express lower levels of the CAR target antigen. Realizing this goal is challenging because current approaches to CAR design are largely empiric and detailed information on CAR signaling is only beginning to emerge. Synthetic CARs typically require hundreds of molecules on the target cell to initiate signaling, whereas natural T cell receptors (TCRs) can recognize less than ten peptide-MHC (pMHC) antigen complexes. We reasoned that in depth comparison of TCR and CAR stimulation-induced signaling events in primary T cells might guide rationale adaptations to CAR design that would improve antigen sensitivity. Bi-specific T cells possessing an endogenous TCR and exogenous CAR of defined specificity were formulated from healthy HLA-B8+ Epstein-Barr virus-seropositive donors. Bi-specific T cells were stimulated with magnetic microbeads coated with recombinant TCR or CAR antigen for 10, 45, or 90 minutes. Some bi-specific T cells were also left unstimulated and harvested at each timepoint to serve as controls. Altogether, 9 unique conditions were tested in an experiment and three independent experiments were performed.

Tandem CAR and single CAR T cells have different fates and therapeutic potency

Project description:Chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR T) cells targeting CD19 have achieved breakthroughs in the treatment of haematological malignancies, but many clinical studies have also shown that a proportion of patients relapse after remission. In this study, we designed a series of tandem CARs (TanCARs) and found that TanCAR7 T cells retained relatively potent antitumour activity compared with single CAR T cell upon target antigen recognition. It may be associated with stable immunological synapse formation and rapid degranulation. Our transcriptional analysis underscores the potential of scFv domains binding to direct different T cell fates.
