Checkpoint Blockade Cancer Immunotherapy Targets Tumor-Specific Mutant Antigens

ABSTRACT: Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4) and Programmed death-1 (PD-1) are immunoregulatory receptors expressed on T cells that play important roles in suppressing immune responses to cancer. Although monoclonal antibodies that target CTLA-4 or PD-1 stimulate therapeutic anti-tumour T cell responses, the tumour antigens recognized by checkpoint blockade immunotherapy remain undefined. Herein, we use genomics and bioinformatics approaches to identify tumour-specific mutant proteins as a major class of T cell rejection antigens following αPD-1 and/or αCTLA-4 treatment of mice bearing progressively growing sarcomas. We validate this conclusion by showing that (a) the predicted mutant epitopes associate with MHC class I molecules of the tumour; (b) T cells specific for these mutant epitopes infiltrate tumours; and (c) therapeutic vaccines incorporating these mutant epitopes induce tumour rejection comparably to checkpoint blockade immunotherapy. Whereas, T cells with the same antigen specificity are present in progressively growing tumours in control mice, tumour-specific T cells in αPD-1- and/or αCTLA-4-treated mice express some overlapping but mostly treatment-specific transcriptional profiles that render them capable of tumour rejection. Thus, tumour-specific mutant antigens are not only important targets of checkpoint blockade therapy but also can be used to identify tumour antigen-specific T cells that function as biomarkers of successful anti-tumour responses.

Distinct cellular mechanisms underlie anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1 checkpoint blockade [WES]

Project description:Immune checkpoint blockade is able to achieve durable responses in a subset of patients, however we lack a satisfying comprehension of the underlying mechanisms of anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1 induced tumor rejection. To address these issues we utilized mass cytometry to comprehensively profile the effects of checkpoint blockade on tumor immune infiltrates in human melanoma and murine tumor models. These analyses reveal a spectrum of tumor infiltrating T cell populations that are highly similar between tumor models and indicate that checkpoint blockade targets only specific subsets of tumor infiltrating T cell populations. Anti-PD-1 predominantly induces the expansion of specific tumor infiltrating exhausted-like CD8 T cell subsets. In contrast, anti-CTLA-4 induces the expansion of an ICOS+ Th1-like CD4 effector population in addition to engaging specific subsets of exhausted-like CD8 T cells. Thus, our findings indicate that anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1 checkpoint blockade induced immune responses are driven by distinct cellular mechanisms.

Gene Expression Profiling of human monocytes: Combination Therapy with AntiâCTLA-4 and AntiâPD-1 Leads to Distinct Immunologic Changes In Vivo

Project description:Transcriptome analysis of human peripheral blood monocytes Combination therapy concurrently targeting PD-1 and CTLA-4 immune checkpoints leads to remarkable antitumor effects. Although both PD-1 and CTLA-4 dampen the T cell activation, the in vivo effects of these drugs in humans remain to be clearly defined. To better understand biologic effects of therapy, we analyzed blood/tumor tissue from patients undergoing single or combination immune checkpoint blockade. We show that blockade of CTLA-4, PD-1, or combination of the two leads to distinct genomic (changes in gene-expression profile) and functional signatures in vivo in purified human T cells and monocytes. RNA extracted from freshly isolated monocytes from peripheral blood of patients treated with either antiâPD-1 (n = 6), antiâCTLA-4 (n = 5), Combo therapy with antiâPD-1 and antiâCTLA-4 concurrently (Combo, n = 6), and Seq antiâPD-1 in patients with prior antiâCTLA-4 (Seq, n = 3) was analyzed using the Affymetrix GeneChip Human Transcriptome 2.0 exon array. No techinical replicates were performed.

Personalized Neoantigen Cancer Vaccine in Glioblastoma Multiforme

Project description:<p>Neoantigens, which are derived from tumour-specific protein-coding mutations, are exempt from central tolerance, can generate robust immune responses and can function as bona fide antigens that facilitate tumour rejection. We demonstrated that a strategy that uses multi-epitope, personalized neoantigen vaccination, which has previously been tested in patients with high-risk melanoma, is feasible for tumours such as glioblastoma, which typically have a relatively low mutation load and an immunologically ‘cold’ tumour microenvironment. Here we conducted whole-exome sequencing of tumor and normal cells from individual patients with glioblastoma to identify tumor-specific mutations. We assessed the expression of mutated alleles by RNA-sequencing of tumor. We used personalized neoantigen-targeting vaccines to immunize patients newly diagnosed with glioblastoma following surgical resection and conventional radiotherapy in a phase I/Ib study. Patients who did not receive dexamethasone-a highly potent corticosteroid that is frequently prescribed to treat cerebral oedema in patients with glioblastoma-generated circulating polyfunctional neoantigen-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses that were enriched in a memory phenotype and showed an increase in the number of tumour-infiltrating T cells. Using single-cell T cell receptor analysis, we provide evidence that neoantigen-specific T cells from the peripheral blood can migrate into an intracranial glioblastoma tumour. Neoantigen-targeting vaccines thus have the potential to favourably alter the immune milieu of glioblastoma.</p>

MEK inhibition enhances presentation of targetable MHC-I tumor antigens in mutant melanomas [RNA-seq]

Project description:Combining multiple therapeutic strategies in NRAS/BRAF mutant melanoma – namely MEK/BRAF kinase inhibitors, immune checkpoint inhibitors, and targeted immunotherapies – may offer an improved survival benefit by overcoming limitations associated with any individual therapy. Still, optimal combination, order, and timing of administration remains under investigation. Here, we measure how MEK inhibition alters anti-tumor immunity by utilizing quantitative immunopeptidomics to profile changes the peptide MHC (pMHC) repertoire. These data reveal a collection of tumor antigens whose presentation levels are selectively augmented following therapy, including several epitopes present at over 1000 copies-per-cell. We leveraged the tunable abundance of MEKi-modulated antigens by targeting 4 epitopes with pMHC-specific T cell engagers and antibody drug conjugates, enhancing cell killing in tumor cells following MEK inhibition. These results highlight drug treatment as a means to enhance immunotherapy efficacy by targeting specific upregulated pMHCs and provide a methodological framework for identifying, quantifying, and therapeutically targeting additional epitopes of interest.

Gene expression data of glioblastoma patients from GAPVAC trial (Glioma Actively Personalized Vaccine Consortium)

Project description:Patients with glioblastoma (GB) so far do not sufficiently benefit from recent breakthroughs with checkpoint inhibitors (CPI), for which high mutational load and responses to neo-epitopes are regarded essential. GB tumours show limited intra-tumoral immune cell infiltration and carry 30-50 non-synonymous mutations only. Exploitation of the full repertoire of tumour antigens - non-mutated and neo-epitopes – may offer more effective immunotherapies, especially for tumours with low mutational load. In the first-in-human trial GAPVAC-101, the Glioma Actively Personalized Vaccine Consortium (GAPVAC) integrated both tracks highly individualized into standard treatment to optimally exploit the limited target space for patients with newly diagnosed GB. Fifteen HLA-A*02:01+ or -A*24:02+ patients were treated with a warehouse-based vaccine (APVAC1) targeting non-mutated antigens followed by APVAC2, targeting preferentially neo-epitopes. Personalization was based on mutations, transcriptome, and immunopeptidome of the individual tumours. The GAPVAC approach was feasible and vaccinations adjuvanted by poly-ICLC and GM-CSF displayed favourable safety and excellent immunogenicity: Non-mutated APVAC1 antigens induced sustained central memory CD8+ T-cell responses. APVAC2 induced predominantly TH1 CD4+ T-cell responses against predicted neo-epitopes. www.GAPVAC.eu

Tumour mitochondrial DNA mutations drive aerobic glycolysis to enhance checkpoint blockade

Project description:The mitochondrial genome encodes essential machinery for respiration and metabolic homeostasis but is paradoxically among the most common targets of somatic mutation in the cancer genome, with truncating mutations in respiratory complex I genes being most over-represented1. While mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations have been associated with both improved and worsened prognoses in several tumour lineages, whether these mutations are drivers or exert any functional effect on tumour biology remains controversial. Here we discovered that complex I-encoding mtDNA mutations are sufficient to remodel the tumour immune landscape and therapeutic resistance to immune checkpoint blockade. Using mtDNA base editing technology we engineered recurrent truncating mutations in the mtDNA-encoded complex I gene, Mt-Nd5, into murine models of melanoma. Mechanistically, these mutations promoted utilisation of pyruvate as a terminal electron acceptor and increased glycolytic flux driven by an over-reduced NAD pool and NADH shuttling between GAPDH and MDH1, mediating a Warburg-like metabolic shift. In turn, without modifying tumour growth, this altered cancer cell-intrinsic metabolism reshaped the tumour microenvironment promoting an anti-tumour immune response characterised by loss of resident neutrophils. This subsequently sensitised tumours bearing high mtDNA mutant heteroplasmy to immune checkpoint blockade, with phenocopy of key metabolic changes being sufficient to mediate this effect. Strikingly, patient lesions bearing >50% mtDNA mutation heteroplasmy also demonstrated a >2.5-fold improved response rate to checkpoint inhibitor blockade. Taken together these data nominate mtDNA mutations as functional regulators of cancer metabolism and tumour biology, with potential for therapeutic exploitation and treatment stratification.
