Combinational targeting CCL7 and Flt3L to promote the expansion and infiltration of cDC1 in tumors enhances T cell activation and anti-PD-1 therapy [Dendritic Cell]

ABSTRACT: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) represented by anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies have been widely applied for various cancers and the response rate to ICIs is closely associated with the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME). Here, we show that combinational targeting CCL7 and Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 ligand (Flt3L) increases the infiltration and expansion of conventional type 1 dendritic cells (cDC1s) in tumor sites and enhances the T cell antitumor responses and the efficacy of anti-PD-1 therapy in subcutaneous tumor models and spontaneous KrasG12D non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) models. We demonstrate that the fusion protein PD-1Ab7 in which CCL7 is fused with the single chain fragment variable region of anti-PD-1 antibody (PD-1Ab) exhibits superior antitumor activities compared to PD-1Ab. Mechanistically, PD-1Ab7 promotes antitumor immunity by increasing the infiltration of cDC1s and the activation of T cells, which is severely compromised by depletion of Zbtb46+ cDCs or inhibition of the CCL7 receptor CCR2. Furthermore, complementation of Flt3L sensitizes the ICI-resistant tumors to PD-1Ab7 and synergizes with PD-1Ab7 to inhibit tumor progression. These findings highlight the essential roles of PD-1Ab-based chemokine fusion strategy in targeting cDC1s and T cells for cancer prevention and provide therapeutic lead molecules for antitumor immunotherapy.

Combinational targeting CCL7 and Flt3L to promote the expansion and infiltration of cDC1 in tumors enhances T cell activation and anti-PD-1 therapy [CD8 T]

MCL1 inhibition targets Myeloid Derived Suppressors Cells, promotes antitumor immunity and enhances the efficacy of immune checkpoint blockade

Project description:Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are now the first line treatment for patients with advanced melanoma. Despite promising clinical results, many patients fail to respond to these therapies. BH3 mimetics, a novel class of small molecule inhibitors that bind and inhibit anti-apoptotic members of the BCL2 family proteins such as BCL2 or MCL1, have been very successful in treating hematologic malignancies. However, there are limited studies on the immunomodulatory role of the BH3 mimetics. Several factors contribute to ICI resistance including myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) that exert immunosuppressive effects through direct and indirect inhibition of antitumor immunity. Thus, targeting MDSCs to enhance antitumor immunity has the potential to enhance the efficacy of ICIs. In this study, we show that the MCL1 inhibitor S64315 reduces melanoma tumor growth in an immune cell dependent manner in mice. Specifically, S64315 enhances antitumor immunity by reducing MDSC frequency and by promoting the activity of CD8+ T cells. Additionally, human MDSCs are 10 times more sensitive to S64315 than cutaneous melanoma lines. Further, we found that a higher expression of MCL1 is associated with poor survival for patients treated with anti-PD-1. Finally, combining S64315 and anti-PD-1 significantly slowed tumor growth compared to either agent alone. Together, this proof-of-concept study demonstrates the potential of combining MCL1 inhibitor with anti-PD-1 in the treatment of melanoma. It justifies the further development of next generation MCL1 inhibitors to improve efficacy of ICIs in treating malignant melanoma.

Oleuropein reprograms the immunosuppressive footprint of tumor-associated myeloid cells and enhances PD-L1/PD-1 blockade immunotherapy in cancer

Project description:Therapies based on PD-1/PD-L1 blockade fail in most cancer patients. Here we evaluated the capacities of oleuropein to reprogram tumor-associated immunosuppressive myeloid cells to increase the potency of immunotherapies. Oleuropein caused major global reprogramming of monocytic and granulocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cells and tumor-associated macrophages towards immunostimulatory subsets. Differential quantitative proteomics uncovered activated and down-modulated pathways at high resolution for each subset which regulated major differentiation programs. Oleuropein significantly potentiated the capacities of myeloid cells to activate T-cells and enhanced antitumor properties of PD-1 blockade, either by systemic anti-PD-1 antibody administration, or locally by intratumor antibody delivery with a self-amplifying RNA vector based on Semliki Forest virus. Combination therapies decreased tumor infiltration by immunosuppressive myeloid cells and increased dendritic cell recruitment within draining lymph nodes, leading to systemic antitumor T-cell responses. Potent therapeutic activities were evident in lung cancer models resistant to immunotherapies and in colon cancer models.

ULK1 as a novel therapeutic target to enhance immune checkpoint therapies against melanoma

Project description:Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have transformed the treatment of melanoma. However, the majority of patients have primary or acquired resistance to ICIs, limiting durable responses and patient survival. Interferon-gamma (IFNg) signaling and the expression of IFNg-stimulated genes correlate with either response or resistance to ICIs, in a context-dependent manner. While IFNg-inducible immunostimulatory genes are required for response to ICIs, chronic IFNg signaling induces the expression of immunosuppressive genes, promoting resistance to these therapies. Here, we show that high levels of ULK1 correlate with poor survival in melanoma patients and overexpression of ULK1 in melanoma cells enhances IFNg-induced expression of immunosuppressive genes, with minimal effects on the expression of immunostimulatory genes. In contrast, genetic or pharmacological inhibition of ULK1 reduces expression of IFNg-induced immunosuppressive genes. ULK1 binds IRF1 in the nuclear compartment of melanoma cells, controlling its binding to the PD-L1 promoter region. Additionally, pharmacological inhibition of ULK1 in combination with anti-PD-1 therapy further reduces melanoma tumor growth and enhances anti-tumor immune responses in vivo. Our data suggest that targeting ULK1 represses IFNg-dependent immunosuppression. These findings support the combination of ULK1 drug-targeted inhibition with ICIs for the treatment of melanoma patients to improve response rates and patient outcomes.

NCI-H460 gene expression analysis after in vivo treatment with anti-PD1 antibody

Project description:Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) targeting PD-1/PD-L1 axis have made a breakthrough in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, a paradoxical boost in tumor growth was reported in a fraction of NSCLC patients after ICIs administration: a novel pattern of cancer progression defined “hyperprogressive disease” (HPD). Because the mechanism of HPD onset has not completely elucidated yet, this study aimed at investigating the cellular and molecular bases of this clinical phenomenon. Pre-treatment histological samples obtained from NSCLC patients were evaluated by immunohistochemistry (IHC) for immune cell infiltrate. Tissue samples from all patients with HPD showed tumor-infiltration by M2-like macrophages. To validate these findings in preclinical models, we utilized athymic nude mice that, lacking T-cells that may cloud the results, represent a suitable model to evaluate the role of macrophages in determining HPD. Immunodeficient mice were injected with human NSCLC NCI-H460 cell line, treated with anti-PD-1 antibody and tumor growth was evaluated over time. Anti-PD-1 treated H460 tumor-bearing mice showed HPD-like tumor growth as well as an increase in macrophage infiltration compared to control group. Interestingly, in these in vivo models, HPD-like growth, triggered by anti-PD-1 treatment, was dependent of anti-PD-1 antibody Fc domain. These results suggest that macrophages are the major players in HPD development and that FcR engagement on macrophages may determine a functional reprogramming of these immune cells toward a more aggressive and pro-tumorigenic phenotype, eventually inducing HPD.

Overcoming primary and acquired resistance to anti-PD-L1 therapy by induction and activation of tumor-residing cDC1s

Project description:T-cell exclusion from the tumor microenvironment (TME) is a significant obstacle in cancer immunotherapy. Evidence indicates crucial roles of Batf3-dependent dendritic cells for inducing antitumor T-cell immunity. However, strategies to maximize the engagement of Batf3-dependent dendritic cells into such ‘cold tumors’ remain elusive. Using multiple syngeneic orthotopic mouse models of non-T cell-inflamed tumors, we hypothesized that in situ induction and activation of tumor-residing Batf3-dependent dendritic cells overcomes poor T-cell infiltration. In situ immunomodulation with Flt3L, radiotherapy, and TLR3/CD40 stimulation induces an influx of stem-like Tcf1+Slamf6+CD8+ T cells, triggers robust regression not only of primary, but also untreated distant tumors, and renders non-T cell-inflamed tumors responsive to anti-PD-L1 therapy. Furthermore, serial ISIM reshapes repertoires of intratumoral T cells, overcomes acquired resistance to anti-PD-L1 therapy, resulting in eradication of tumors, and establishes tumor-specific immunological memory. These findings provide new insights into Batf3-dependent dendritic cells biology as a critical determinant to the formation of a T cell-inflamed TME.

Nano-hijacked myeloid cells potentiate antitumor immunity and radiotherapy for glioblastoma

Project description:Abstract: Radiation therapy is a key component of the standard of care for glioblastoma (GBM). Although this treatment is known to trigger pro-inflammatory immune responses, it also results in several immune resistance mechanisms such as the upregulation of CD47 by tumors leading to avoidance of phagocytosis and the overexpression of PD-L1 in tumor-associated myeloid cells (TAMCs). Leveraging these RT-elicited processes, we generated a bispecific-lipid nanoparticle (B-LNP) that engaged TAMCs to glioma cells via anti-CD47/PD-L1 dual-ligation. We show that B-LNP blocked these two vital immune checkpoint molecules and promoted the phagocytic activity of TAMCs. In order to boost subsequent T cell recruitment and antitumor activity after tumor engulfment, the B-LNP was encapsulated with diABZI, a non-nucleotidyl agonist for stimulator of interferon genes (STING). In vivo treatment with the diABZI-loaded B-LNP induced a transcriptomic and metabolic switch in TAMCs, transforming them into potent antitumor effector cells, which induced T cell infiltration and activation of in the brain tumors. In preclinical murine glioma models, B-LNP therapy significantly potentiated the antitumor effects of radiotherapy, promoted brain tumor regression, and induced immunological memory against gliomas. The nano37 therapy was efficacious through both intra-tumoral and systemic delivery routes. In summary, our study shows a unique nanotechnology-based approach that hijacks multiple immune checkpoints to boost potent and long-lasting antitumor immunity against GBM.

Targeting IL-21 to tumor-reactive T cells enhances memory T cell responses and anti-PD-1 antibody therapy

Project description:T cell rejuvenation by PD-1/PD-L1 blockade, despite emerging as a highly promising therapy for advanced cancers, is only beneficial for a minority of treated patients. There is evidence that a lack of efficient T cell activation may be responsible for the failure. Here, we demonstrate that IL-21 can be targeted to tumor-reactive T cells by fusion of IL-21 to anti-PD-1 antibody. To our surprise, the fusion protein PD-1Ab21 promoted the generation of TSCM-like CD8+ T cells with enhanced cell proliferation. A transcriptome analysis of isolated TN, activated and PD-1Ab-cultured CD44highCD62Lhigh T cells, IL-2-generated TE/TEM, IL-15-generated TCM as well as PD-1Ab21 and IL-21-generated CD44lowCD62Lhigh T cells provides corroborating evidence that PD-1Ab21 induces conversion of activated CD8+ T cells back to a memory subset that is distinct from TCM cells, but similar to TSCM. PD-1Ab21 treatment showed potent antitumor effects in established tumor-bearing mice accompanied with an increased frequency of TSCM and robust expansion of tumor-specific CD8+ T cells with a memory phenotype, and was superior to a combination of PD-1 blockade and IL-21 infusion. Therefore, we have developed a potential strategy to improve the therapeutic effects of immune checkpoint blockade by simultaneously targeting cytokines to tumor-reactive T cells.
