Immunomodulatory response to neoadjuvant nivolumab in non-metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma

ABSTRACT: Novel perioperative strategies are needed to reduce recurrence rates in patients undergoing nephrectomy for high-risk, non-metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). We conducted a prospective, phase I trial of neoadjuvant nivolumab prior to nephrectomy in 15 evaluable patients with non-metastatic ccRCC. We leveraged tissue from that cohort to elucidate the effects of PD-1 inhibition on immune cell populations in ccRCC and correlate the evolving immune milieu with anti-PD-1 response. We found that nivolumab durably induces a pro-inflammatory state within the primary tumor, and baseline immune infiltration within the primary tumor correlates with nivolumab responsiveness. Nivolumab increases CTLA-4 expression in the primary tumor, and subsequent nephrectomy increases circulating concentrations of sPD-L1, sPD-L3 (sB7-H3), and s4-1BB. These findings form the basis to consider neoadjuvant immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI) for high-risk ccRCC while the tumor remains in situ and provide the rationale for perioperative strategies of novel ICI combinations.

Sitravatinib Plus Nivolumab in Patients Undergoing Nephrectomy for Locally Advanced Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma

Project description:Sitravatinib is an immunomodulatory tyrosine kinase inhibitor that can augment responses when combined with programmed death-1 (PD-1) inhibitors such as nivolumab. We report a phase 2 study of neoadjuvant sitravatinib in combination with nivolumab in patients with locally advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) prior to curative nephrectomy (NCT03680521). The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR) prior to surgery with a null hypothesis ORR = 5% and the alternative hypothesis set at ORR = 30%. Secondary endpoints included correlative immune effects and disease-free survival (DFS). Twenty patients were evaluable for safety and 17 for efficacy. The ORR was 11.8%, and 24-month DFS probability was 88·0% (95% CI 61.0 to 97.0). There were no grade 4/5 treatment-related adverse events. Correlative blood and tissue analyses showed changes in the tumour microenvironment resulting in an immunologically active tumour by the time of surgery. These data suggest that short-term neoadjuvant sitravatinib and nivolumab does not substantially increase ORR but can modulate the immune microenvironment and yield high DFS probabilities in patients with locally advanced ccRCC.

Mesenchymal-like tumor cells and myofibroblastic cancer-associated fibroblasts are associated with progression and immunotherapy response of clear-cell renal cell carcinoma [spatial transcriptomics]

Project description:Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) represent the cornerstone for treatment of patients with metastatic clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). Despite a favorable response for a subset of patients, others experience primary progressive disease highlighting the need to precisely understand plasticity of cancer cells and their crosstalk with the microenvironment to better predict therapeutic response and personalize treatment. Single-cell RNA sequencing of ccRCC at different disease stages and normal adjacent tissue (NAT) from patients identified 46 cell populations, including 5 tumor subpopulations, characterized by distinct transcriptional signatures representing an epithelial to mesenchymal transition gradient and a novel inflamed state. Deconvolution of the tumor and microenvironment signatures in public datasets and in data from the BIONIKK clinical trial (NCT02960906) revealed a strong correlation between mesenchymal-like ccRCC cells and myofibroblastic cancer-associated fibroblasts (myCAFs), which are both enriched in metastases and correlate with poor patient survival. Spatial transcriptomics and multiplex immune staining uncovered spatial proximity of mesenchymal-like ccRCC cells and myCAFs at the tumor-NAT interface. Moreover, enrichment in myCAFs was associated with primary resistance to ICI therapy in the BIONIKK clinical trial. This data highlights the epithelial-mesenchymal plasticity of ccRCC cancer cells and their relationship with myCAFs, a critical component of the microenvironment associated with poor outcome and ICI resistance.

Neoadjuvant immune checkpoint blockade in retroperitoneal dedifferentiated liposarcoma and extremity/trunk undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (NCT03307616)

Project description:Recent evidence suggests that immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has some activity in metastatic dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDLPS) and undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS). We conducted a randomized, non-comparative phase 2 trial (NCT03307616) of nivolumab or nivolumab/ipilimumab in patients with resectable retroperitoneal DDLPS (n=17) and extremity/truncal UPS (n=10), with UPS patients receiving concurrent radiation therapy. The primary endpoint of pathologic response as assessed by percent hyalinization was observed to be a median of 8.8% in DDLPS patients and 89% in UPS patients and similar in nivolumab and ipilimumab/nivolumab arms in both cohorts . Higher intratumoral densities of T-regulatory cells were associated with absence of pathologic response (hyalinization<30%). Tumor infiltration by B-cells was associated with higher densities of T-regulatory cells before treatment; this association was lost upon ICB treatment. Our data demonstrate that neoadjuvant ICB with concurrent radiation may have significant efficacy in UPS and is associated complex immune changes in the tumor microenvironment in DDLPS and UPS.

Immune Restoring (IR) CAR-T Cells Display Superior Antitumor Activity and Reverse Immunosuppressive TME in a Humanized ccRCC Orthotopic Mouse Model

Project description:Here we report a humanized clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) orthotopic NSG-SGM3 mouse model (hccRCC-NSG-SGM3) with reconstituted human lymphocytes derived from fetal CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) bearing human ccRCC skrc-59 cells under the kidney capsule. Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) matched CD34+ HSCs were used for the humanization to reduce T cell alloreactivity against skrc-59 human ccRCC cells. Tumors were collected and sorted for CD45+ tumor infiltrated leukocytes (TILs) to profile the tumor microenvironment (TME) in hccRCC-NSG-SGM3. By comparing to patient data from prospective clinical trials of the anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody (mAb) nivolumab in advanced ccRCC, the results demonstrated that the CD45+ TILs from hccRCC-NSG-SGM3 reconstitutes most CD45+ cell types, including NK cells, dendritic cells, exhausted CD8 T cells, regulatory T cells (Tregs), that are observed in advanced ccRCC patient TME. Furthermore, Anti-carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) G36 immune restoring (IR) chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells secreting PD-L1 targeted immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) mAb (G36-PDL1) exhibited superior tumor control compared to G36 CAR-T cells with anti-SARS mAb (G36-SARS) and anti-BCMA A716 CAR-T cells with anti-PD-L1 mAb (A716-PDL1). In addition, G36-PDL1 CAR-T cells restored active anti-tumor immunity at tumor site uncovered by 10X genomics single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and single cell T cell receptor sequencing (scTCR-seq).

PBAF loss leads to DNA damage induced inflammatory signalling through defective G2/M checkpoint maintenance

Project description:PBRM1 is a subunit of the PBAF (SWI/SNF) chromatin remodelling complex that is mutated in approximately 40% of clear cell renal cell carcinomas (ccRCC). PBRM1 loss has been implicated in the response to immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy in ccRCC. However, it is unclear how PBRM1 influences this. DNA damage-induced inflammatory signalling is an important factor determining ICI therapy response. This response is kept in check by the G2/M checkpoint, which prevents progression through mitosis with unrepaired damage. Here, we show that PBRM1 is required for p53-dependent maintenance of the G2/M checkpoint. In its absence, p53-dependent transcriptional upregulation of p21 is delayed, leading to defective repression of DREAM complex targets and premature entry into mitosis. Consequently, DNA damage induced inflammatory signalling pathways are activated by cytosolic DNA. Notably, p53 is infrequently mutated in ccRCC, so PBRM1 mutational status is critical to G2/M checkpoint maintenance following DNA damage in this cancer. These findings have implications for ICI therapy responses in ccRCC.

Circulating tumor DNA, pathological and immunologic responses to neoadjuvant nivolumab or nivolumab plus relatlimab and chemoradiotherapy in resectable esophageal/gastroesophageal junction cancer

Project description:Gastroesophageal tumor kinetics during immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI) remain poorly understood. We report a phase II trial that evaluated neoadjuvant nivolumab (arm A) or nivolumab-relatlimab (arm B) in combination with chemoradiotherapy in 32 patients with resectable gastroesophageal cancer together with an in-depth evaluation of pathological, molecular and functional immune responses (NCT03044613). Patients with undetectable circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) post-ICI induction, pre- and post-operatively had a significantly longer RFS and OS. Cell-free tumor load contraction was reflective of neoantigen-specific T-cell responses. Our findings highlight tumor kinetics during ICI that may open a therapeutic window for future intervention.

Neoadjuvant anti-PD1 immunotherapy for surgically accessible recurrent glioblastoma: clinical and molecular outcomes of a stage 2 single-arm expansion cohort

Project description:Glioblastoma is immunologically “cold” and resistant to single-agent immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). Our previous study of neoadjuvant pembrolizumab in surgically-accessible recurrent glioblastoma identified a molecular signature of response to ICI and suggested that neoadjuvant pembrolizumab may improve survival. To increase the power of this observation, we performed bulk-RNA seq on resected tumor tissue in an additional 25 patients with surgically-accessible recurrent glioblastoma. Neoadjuvant pembrolizumab was associated with suppression of cell cycle/cancer proliferation genes and upregulation of T-cell/interferon-related gene expression. This signature was unique to patients treated with neoadjuvant pembrolizumab and was an independent risk factor for survival. Our results demonstrate a clear pharmacodynamic effect of anti-PD1 therapy in glioblastoma and identify pathways that may mediate resistance. However, we did not confirm a survival benefit to neoadjuvant pembrolizumab in recurrent glioblastoma. Our new data suggests some patients may exhibit innate resistance to pre-surgical ICI and require other concomitant therapies to sensitize effectively.

microRNAseq of clear-cell renal cell carcinoma on surgical resection specimens of untreated primary tumors in humans

Project description:We aimed to assess differences in miRNA expression profiles in transcriptomic molecular subtypes of ccRCC (Beuselinck et al, Clinical Cancer Research 2015) and to correlate miRNAs with overal survival since diagnosis of ccRCC. Sequencing was done for 129 primary ccRCC (formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded surgical resection specimens, previously untreated) and 16 normal kidney specimens. Normal kidney was obtained from the nephrectomy specimens at time of ccRCC removal, in tissue blocks containing only normal kidney (so nót the normal kidney immediately adjacent to ccRCC). The samples were sequenced in 2 major batches (2014 and 2017).

Sitravatinib in combination with nivolumab plus ipilimumab in patients with advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma: a phase 1 trial

Project description:Sitravatinib is an immunomodulatory tyrosine kinase inhibitor that can improve responses when combined with immune checkpoint therapy (ICT). We conducted a phase I trial to determine the optimal dose of triplet therapy with sitravatinib plus nivolumab plus ipilimumab in 22 previously untreated patients with advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). The primary endpoint was safety. The addition of even a low sitravatinib dose of 35 mg daily to nivolumab 3 mg/kg and ipilimumab 1 mg/kg resulted in high frequency of immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Subsequent dose reduction of ipilimumab to 0.7 mg/kg in combination with nivolumab 3 mg/kg allowed safe escalation of sitravatinib up to 100 mg daily. Key secondary endpoints were objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). Overall, the triplet combination in the dose-finding setting achieved an ORR of 45.5%, DCR of 86.4%, and a median PFS of 14.5 months with 72.7% of patients alive after a median follow-up of 15.7 months. Single-cell RNA-seq performed in longitudinally collected tumor biopsies from 12 patients treated with the triplet therapy identified a tumor cell-specific epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-like program associated with treatment resistance and poor outcomes in patients of this trial and in patients of the TCGA ccRCC cohort. Within the tumor microenvironment (TME), the emergence of treatment resistance was characterized by a transition from cytotoxic to exhausted T cell state and enrichment for M2-like myeloid cells. The observed changes in gene expression dynamics and cellular states in tumor cell and TME may help inform future strategies to optimize ICT efficacy.
