Checkpoint blockade immunotherapy relies on T-bet but not Eomes to induce effector function in tumor infiltrating CD8+ T cells

ABSTRACT: Coinhibitory receptor blockade is a promising strategy to boost immunity against a variety of human cancers. However, many patients still do not benefit from this treatment, and responders often experience immune-related toxicities. These issues highlight the need for improved understanding of checkpoint blockade, but the T cell-intrinsic signaling pathways and gene expression profiles engaged during treatment are not well defined, particularly for combination approaches. We utilized a murine model of CD8+ T cell tolerance to address these issues. We used microarrays to examine the global transcriptional response of T cells rendered tolerant in vivo by encounter with tumor/self-antigen versus T cells activated in response to an immunogenic tumor.

RNA isolated from naive Gag-specific T cells was compared to RNA isolated from T-cells transferred into B6 mice with established FBL tumor (immune) and from Alb:Gag mice (tolerant). Two days after T cell transfer, recipient spleen and lymph nodes were harvested and pooled. Transferred cells were then sorted based on CD8+ CD90.1+ CD69hi to a >96% purity using a FACSAria III (BD Biosciences). There were 3 biological replicates per condition.

Chemohormonal Therapy Remodels Prostate Cancer Immune Microenvironment and Enhances Checkpoint Inhibitor-based immunotherapy

Project description:Checkpoint blockade immunotherapy is a promising strategy in cancer treatment, depending on a favorable preexisting tumor immune microenvironment. However, prostate cancer is usually considered as an immune “cold” tumor with the poor immunogenic response and low density of tumor-infiltrating immune cells. This research uses samples from prostate cancer patients showing that docetaxel-based chemohormonal therapy reprograms the immune microenvironment and increases tumor-infiltrating T cells. Mechanistically, docetaxel treatment activates the cGAS/STING pathway and induces the type I interferon signaling, which may boost T cell-mediated immune response. In a murine prostate cancer model, chemohormonal therapy sensitizes tumor-bearing mice to PD1-blockade therapy. These findings demonstrate that docetaxel-based chemohormonal therapy activates prostate cancer immunogenicity and acts cooperatively with anti-PD-1 checkpoint blockade, providing a combination immunotherapy strategy that would lead to better therapeutic benefit for prostate cancer.

Checkpoint blockade immunotherapy relies on T-bet but not Eomes to induce effector function in tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells.

Project description:Coinhibitory receptor blockade is a promising strategy to boost T-cell immunity against a variety of human cancers. However, many patients still do not benefit from this treatment, and responders often experience immune-related toxicities. These issues highlight the need for advanced mechanistic understanding to improve patient outcomes and uncover clinically relevant biomarkers of treatment efficacy. However, the T-cell-intrinsic signaling pathways engaged during checkpoint blockade treatment are not well defined, particularly for combination approaches. Using a murine model to study how effector CD8(+) T-cell responses to tumors may be enhanced in a tolerizing environment, we identified a critical role for the T-box transcription factor T-bet. Combination blockade of CTLA-4, PD-1, and LAG-3 induced T-bet expression in responding tumor/self-reactive CD8(+) T cells. Eradication of established leukemia using this immunotherapy regimen depended on T-bet induction, which was required for IFNγ production and cytotoxicity by tumor-infiltrating T cells, and for efficient trafficking to disseminated tumor sites. These data provide new insight into the success of checkpoint blockade for cancer immunotherapy, revealing T-bet as a key transcriptional regulator of tumor-reactive CD8(+) T-cell effector differentiation under otherwise tolerizing conditions.

METIMMOX-2: Metastatic pMMR/MSS Colorectal Cancer - Shaping Anti-Tumor Immunity by Oxaliplatin

Project description:Hypothesis: Patients with metastatic colorectal cancer with DNA mismatch repair-proficient (pMMR) function / microsatellite-stable (MSS) phenotype harbor a non-immunogenic disease that can be transformed into an immunogenic condition by short-course oxaliplatin-based therapy, and may achieve durable disease control or even tumor eradication by the addition of immune checkpoint blockade therapy to the standard-of-care oxaliplatin-based treatment.

Melanoma Sequential Immune Checkpoint Blockade Treatment Sequencing Study

Project description:<p>Blockade of T cell coinhibitory molecules such as CTLA-4 and PD-1, can activate T cell antitumor response. Although these immune checkpoint blockades (CTLA-4 blockade and PD-1 blockade) have shown durable response, response rate is modest. Therefore, there is a need to find stable biomarkers predictive of response to immune checkpoint blockades and to understand underlying resistance mechanisms. We collected longitudinal tumor biopsies from a cohort of metastatic melanoma patients treated with sequential immune checkpoint blockades and performed whole exome sequencing of this cohort. The comprehensive genomic characterization of tumors enabled identification of higher copy number loss burden as a resistance mechanism and clonal T cell repertoire as a predictive biomarker.</p>

Immunogenic cell death inducer cEmsy boosted cancer immunotherapy in lung adenocarcinoma

Project description:Immunogenic cell death (ICD) represents a spectacular approach to boosting tumor immunotherapy by inducing an adaptive immune response, and it is urgent to identify effective and safe ICD inducers. Here, we identified a conserved, ICD-related circular RNA-cEmsy/cEMSY by performing a systematic screening utilizing immunogenic cell death models induced by multiple cell stressors in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). cEmsy/cEMSY triggers ICD in LUAD both in vitro and in vivo, leading to the release of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) and promoting T-cell cross-priming by dendritic cells (DCs). Notably, in the immunosuppressive tumor model, intratumoral delivery of in vitro-transcribed cEmsy encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles (LNP) induces a potent anti-tumor immune response, which synergizes with PD-1 blockade to facilitate long-term cancer immunity with no apparent toxicities. Mechanistically, cEmsy/cEMSY facilitates TDP-43 aggregation in mitochondria and leverages mitochondrial DNA leakage, activating the cGAS-STING pathway and initiating an antiviral immune response. Clinically, elevated expression level of cEMSY correlates with enhanced DCs and CD8+ T cell infiltration, and favorable immunotherapy response in LUAD. Hence, cEmsy/cEMSY emerges as a safe and potent ICD inducer, offering a dual advantage as a mechanism-based target and a biomarker for enhancing ICI responses in LUAD treatment.

TGFβ blockade in pancreatic cancer enhances sensitivity to combination chemotherapy

Project description:We evaluated the TGFβ blocking antibody NIS793 in combination with either gemcitabine/n(ab)-paclitaxel or FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy in orthotopic pancreatic cancer. Blockade of TGFβ with chemotherapy reduced tumor burden in poorly immunogenic pancreatic cancer, without affecting the metastatic rate of cancer cells. TGFβ blockade decreased total aSMA+ fibroblasts but had minimal effect on fibroblast heterogeneity.

TIGIT and PD-L1 co-blockade promotes clonal expansion of multipotent, non-exhausted antitumor T cells by facilitating co-stimulation

Project description:Blockade of the immune checkpoints PD-1 and TIGIT has demonstrated activity in mouse tumor models and human patients with cancer. Although these coinhibitory receptors can restrict signaling in CD8+ T cells by regulating their associated co-stimulatory receptors CD28 and CD226, the functional consequences of combining PD-1 and TIGIT blockade remain poorly characterized. In mouse tumor models, we show that combination blockade elicited CD226-driven clonal expansion of tumor antigen-specific CD8+ T cells. The expanded clones emerged from a population of stem-like cells in draining lymph nodes, entering the blood as a previously unidentified single-phenotype, multiclonal population. Upon reaching the tumor, these transiting cells expanded further and differentiated into effector or exhausted T cells, with combination blockade restricting entry into the exhaustion pathway by favoring co-stimulation. Thus, PD-1 and TIGIT inhibition helps shape the repertoire of tumor-reactive CD8+ T cells in draining lymph nodes and determines their immunological fate in the tumor to enhance therapeutic benefit. Analysis of clinical trial samples suggests a similar mechanism may also occur in patients with cancer.

Homeostatic PD-1 signalling restrains Eomes-dependent oligoclonal expansion of liver- resident CD8 T cells [scRNA-seq]

Project description:The coinhibitory PD-1 signalling pathway plays a major role in the context of tumor-specific T cell responses. Conversely, it also contributes to the maintenance of peripheral tolerance as patients receiving anti-PD-1 treatment are prone to developing immune-related adverse events. Yet, the physiological role of the PD-1/PDL-1 axis in T cell homeostasis is still poorly understood. Herein, we show that under steady-state conditions, the absence of PD-1 signaling led to a preferential expansion of CD8+ T cells in the liver. These cells exhibited an oligoclonal TCR repertoire and a terminally differentiated exhaustion profile with high levels of the transcription factors TOX and EOMES. Using loss- or gain-of-function strategies, we could demonstrate that EOMES was required for the clonal expansion and acquisition of this differentiation program. Furthermore, single cell transcriptomics coupled to TCR repertoire analysis strongly supported the notion that these cells arise locally from liver-resident memory CD8 T cells. With these results, we uncovered an unexpected role for PD-1 signaling in liver memory T cell homeostasis.
