Project description:This phase 2 study evaluates the combination of Ad-SGE-Dickkopf-3 (DKK3) gene therapy and nivolumab in patients with chemotherapy-refractory epithelioid malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM). This clinical study was based on our preclinical study to overcome primary immune resistance by combining Ad-SGE-DKK3 gene therapy with anti-PD-1 therapy through DKK3-driven immune modulation in mesothelioma. The study enrolled 12 patients between 2019 and 2022, who were refractory to pemetrexed-platin-based chemotherapy. Treatment involved CT-guided intratumoral injections of Ad-SGE-DKK3 and systemic nivolumab administration. The primary goal was to assess the objective response rate (ORR), with secondary and exploratory objectives focusing on safety, durable clinical benefit (DCB), survival, and biomarker changes. Of the enrolled patients, 75% completed the Ad-SGE-DKK3 treatment protocol. The study observed a 16.6% ORR with 41.7% maintaining stable disease, which reached 58.3% DCB rate. The median overall survival was 14.5 months, and the median progression-free survival was 4.5 months. Adverse events of grade 3 were noted in 41.7% of patients. Serial analysis of tumor biopsies and serum biomarkers indicated that patients with DCB had increased tumor-infiltrating CD8 T cells, decreased circulating memory CD8 T cells, and sustained lower concentrations of soluble mesothelin and M-CSF than progressors. The combination therapy demonstrated a favorable safety profile and promising efficacy in this patient population. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT04013334

Project description:The combination of FOLFOX and bevacizumab (FOLFOX-Bev) is a promising treatment for advanced colorectal cancer (CRC). To gain insights into the cellular changes associated with FOLFOX-Bev treatment, we conducted single-cell transcriptomic analysis of CRC samples derived from a patient before and after treatment. Our results show that cancer cells with high proliferative, metastatic, and pro-angiogenic properties respond better to FOLFOX-Bev treatment. Moreover, FOLFOX-Bev enhances CD8+ T cell cytotoxicity, thereby boosting the anti-tumor immune response. Conversely, FOLFOX-Bev impairs the functionality of tumor-associated macrophages, plasma cells, and cancer-associated fibroblasts, leading to a decrease in VEGFB-mediated angiogenesis. Furthermore, FOLFOX-Bev treatment reset intercellular communication, which could potentially affect the function of non-cancer cells. Our findings provide valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying the response of advanced CRC to FOLFOX-Bev treatment and highlight potential targets for improving the efficacy of this treatment strategy.

Project description:Background and aims: Immune checkpoint inhibitors have promising outcomes in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC); however, there is no reliable biomarker for predicting disease progression. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) derived from peripheral blood have attracted attention in monitoring therapeutic efficacy. In this study, CTCs were serially collected from patients with HCC undergoing atezolizumab plus bevacizumab (Atezo+Bev) treatment, and changes in molecular expression and CTC numbers were analyzed to identify effective biomarkers. Approach and results: The peripheral blood samples were collected serially from 22 patients with HCC treated with Atezo+Bev, and CTCs were enriched using RosetteSep. The CD45(-)PanCK(+) cell counts were measured using flow cytometry. RNA extracted from enriched CTCs underwent targeted RNA sequencing with next-generation sequencing (NGS) and performed unsupervised hierarchical clustering analysis. Changes in CTC numbers during Atezo+Bev treatment reflected the tumor volume. NGS analysis revealed that patients with elevated transforming growth factor (TGF)-β signaling molecules had a poorer response, whereas those with elevated apoptosis signaling molecules had a favorable response (p < 0.05). In addition, compared with changes in CTC counts, changes in TGF-β signaling molecule expression in CTCs accurately and promptly predicted treatment response. Conclusions: NGS analysis of CTC-derived RNA showed that changes in TGF-β signaling molecules predict treatment response earlier than changes in CTC counts. These findings suggest that changes in the expression of TGF-β molecules in CTCs could serve as novel biomarkers for the early prediction of therapeutic response in patients with unresectable HCC undergoing Atezo+Bev therapy.

Project description:Bevacizumab represents anti-angiogenic effect in cancer patients by inhibiting vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). However, its use is still limited due to the resistance to the initial response. Such resistance could be regulated by various cell types and soluble factors, although the underlying mechanisms, especially cell-based mechanisms, remain incompletely understood. Here, we identified bone marrow-derived fibrocytes as a novel contributor for the acquired resistance to bevacizumab, defined as alpha-1 type I collagen-positive and CXCR4-positive cells. In mouse models of lung cancer and malignant pleural mesothelioma, fibrocytes mediated the resistance to bevacizumab as a main producer of fibroblast growth factor 2. Using clinical specimens of lung cancer that were surgically resected after bevacizumab treatment, we demonstrated that the number of fibrocytes was significantly increased in bevacizumab-treated tumor, and was correlated with the number of treatment cycles as well as CD31-positive vessels. Our results identify fibrocytes as a promising cell biomarker and a potential therapeutic target to overcome resistance to anti-VEGF therapy.

Project description:Bevacizumab induces glioblastoma resistance in two in vivo xenograft models. Two cell lines were developed with acquired resistance to bevacizumab. Gene expression difference were analyzed between treated and untreated tumors. Purpose: Antiangiogenic therapy reduces vascular permeability and delays progression but may ultimately promote an aggressive treatment-resistant phenotype. The aim of the present study was to identify mechanisms responsible for glioblastoma resistance to antiangiogenic therapy. Experimental Design: Glioma stem cell (GSC) NSC11 and U87 cell lines with acquired resistance to bevacizumab were developed from orthotopic xenografts in nude mice treated with bevacizumab. Genome-wide analyses were used to identify changes in tumor subtype and specific factors associated with resistance. Results: Mice with established parental NSC11 and U87 cells responded to bevacizumab, whereas glioma cell lines derived at the time of acquired resistance to anti-VEGF therapy were resistant to bevacizumab and did not have prolongation of survival compared to untreated controls. Gene expression profiling comparing anti-VEGF therapy-resistant cell lines to untreated controls demonstrated an increase in genes associated with a mesenchymal origin, cellular migration/invasion, and inflammation. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) demonstrated that bevacizumab-treated tumors showed a highly significant correlation to published mesenchymal gene signatures. Mice bearing resistant tumors showed significantly greater infiltration of myeloid cells in NSC11 and U87 resistant tumors. Invasion-related genes were also upregulated in both NSC11 and U87 resistant cells, which had higher invasion rates in vitro compared with their respective parental cell lines. Conclusions: Our studies identify multiple pro-inflammatory factors associated with resistance and identify a proneural-to-mesenchymal transition (PMT) in tumors resistant to antiangiogenic therapy. Glioma cell lines were injected into the caudate of nude mice and were allowed to grow untreated (samples labeled control) or were treated with 10 mg/kg IP twice weekly with bevacizumab (samples labeled Avastin). At the time of animal death, tumor tissue from the mouse was removed, and RNA was isolated and analyzed using gene expression. U87R and NSC11R represent cells resistant to bevacizumab (Avastin).

Project description:Purpose: To study the potential priming benefit of bevacizumab from subsequent immunotherapy (durvalumab) in advanced breast cancer patients Methods: We tested this hypothesis by adding durvalumab after progression to maintenance single-agent bevacizumab treatment in advanced HER2-negative patients (average 3 treatment lines). In order to study the potential priming benefit, patients had to experience disease progression while on bevacizumab maintenance prior to entering the trial. In addition, we sought to find traits in peripheral-blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and tumor biopsies that informed about this immuno-priming, in an attempt to search for novel biomarkers of efficacy of the combo and obtain a better understanding of the biology of this clinical scenario. Results: Patients that experienced clinical benefit, compared with the remaining patients, displayed a lymphocyte pattern in PBMCs consisting on increased T-effector subpopulations (CD4- and CD8- effector and effector-memory) and decreased immunosuppressive T-regulatory cells. Gene-expression studies in tumor samples showed a congruent pattern, with increased T-effector and memory T cell signatures in responders, and increased T-regulatory and decreased active dendritic cells in non-responders. These events were observed in patients that displayed vascular normalization features as a result of previous bevacizumab, supporting the immuno-priming effects of this strategy.
