Project description:Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) enhances tumor-reactive T cell responses against cancer, leading to long-term tumor control and survival in a fraction of patients. Given the increasingly recognized complexity of CD8+ T cell differentiation that occurs in response to chronic antigen stimulation, it remains unclear precisely which T cell differentiation states are critical for the response to ICB, as well as the anatomic sites at which ICB-mediated reinvigoration of these T cells occurs. We used paired single-cell RNA and T cell receptor (TCR) sequencing to profile endogenous, tumor-reactive CD8+ T cells isolated from tumors, tumor-draining lymph nodes, and spleens of mice treated with ICB. We identified an intermediate-exhausted population of T cells in the spleen which underwent the greatest expansion in response to ICB and gave rise to the majority of tumor-infiltrating clonotypes. Increasing concentrations of systemic antigen perturbed the differentiation of this phenotype towards an exhausted_KLR state, while a lack of cross-presentation of tumor-derived antigen blunted differentiation in the spleen. We identified an analogous population of exhausted_KLR CD8+ T cells in matched human tumor and blood samples that exhibited diminished tumor-trafficking ability. Collectively, our data demonstrate the critical role of antigen density within the spleen in coordinating the differentiation and expansion of tumor-infiltrating T cell clonotypes in response to ICB.

Project description:Metastatic uveal melanoma generally responds poorly to immunotherapy. The aim here was to sequence tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes from uveal melanoma metastases to study their phenotypes and T-cell receptor (TCR) clonotypes. We performed paired single-cell transcriptome and TCR sequencing using the 10x Genomics platform of IL2-expanded tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes from 7 liver and 1 subcutaneous metastasis.

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is generally refractory to immune checkpoint blockade, although patients with genetically unstable tumors can show modest therapeutic benefit. We previously demonstrated the presence of tumor-reactive CD8+ T cells in PDAC samples. Here, we charted the tumor-infiltrating T cell repertoire in PDAC by combining single-cell transcriptomics with functional testing of T cell receptors (TCRs) for reactivity against autologous tumor cells. On the basis of a comprehensive dataset including 93 tumor-reactive and 65 bystander TCR clonotypes, we delineated a gene signature that effectively distinguishes between these T cell subsets in PDAC, as well as in other tumor indications. This revealed a high frequency of tumor-reactive TCR clonotypes in three genetically unstable samples. In contrast, the T cell repertoire in six genetically stable PDAC tumors was largely dominated by bystander T cells. Nevertheless, multiple tumor-reactive TCRs were successfully identified in each of these samples, thereby providing a perspective for personalized immunotherapy in this treatment-resistant indication.

Project description:Immunotherapies that block inhibitory checkpoint receptors on T cells have transformed the clinical care of cancer patients. However, the clonal origin of tumor-specific T cells following checkpoint blockade in patients remains unclear. Here, we performed paired single-cell RNA- and T cell receptor (TCR)- sequencing on site-matched tumors from patients with basal cell carcinoma (BCC) pre- and post-anti-PD-1 therapy. Tracking TCR clonotypes and transcriptome phenotypes revealed a coupling of tumor-recognition, clonal expansion, and T cell dysfunction: the response to treatment was accompanied by a clonal expansion of CD8+CD39+ T cells, which co-expressed markers of chronic T cell activation and exhaustion. However, this response was not accompanied by an expansion of pre-existing tumor-specific T cell clonotypes; rather, expanded T cell clones post-therapy comprised novel clonotypes, which were not previously observed in the same tumor. Clonal replacement of T cells was preferentially observed in tumor-specific exhausted CD8+ T cells, compared to other distinct T cell phenotypes, and was more evident in patients who exhibited a clinical response to treatment. These results, enabled by single-cell multi-omic profiling of clinical samples, demonstrate that the chronic activation of pre-existing tumor-infiltrating T cells may limit their re-invigoration following checkpoint blockade, and that a successful response relies on the expansion of a distinct repertoire of tumor-specific T cell clones.

Project description:An improved understanding of the anti-tumor CD8+ T cell response after checkpoint blockade would enable more informed and effective therapeutic strategies. Here we examined the dynamics of the effector response of CD8+ tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) after checkpoint blockade therapy. Bulk and single-cell RNA profiles of CD8+ TILs after combined Tim-3+PD-1 blockade in preclinical models revealed significant changes in the transcriptional profile of PD-1? TILs. These cells could be divided into subsets bearing characterstics of naive-, effector-, and memory-precursor-like cells. Effector- and memory-precursor-like TILs contained tumor-antigen-specific cells, exhibited proliferative and effector capacity, and expanded in response to different checkpoint blockade therapies across different tumor models. The memory-precursor-like subset shared features with CD8+ T cells associated with response to checkpoint blockade in patients and was compromised in the absence of Tcf7. Expression of Tcf7 was requisite for the efficacy of diverse immunotherapies, highlighting the importance of this transcriptional regulator in the development of effective CD8+ T cell responses upon immunotherapy.

Project description:Most bladder cancers are poorly responsive to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) of PD-L1. Thus, there is a need to define mechanisms of de novo resistance including contributions from tumor infiltrating immune cells. In this study, we used single-cell transcriptional profiling to map and define infiltrating myeloid cells in 10 human bladder tumors. Human data sets were qualitatively compared with myeloid data sets from the carcinogen (BBN) induced mouse model of bladder cancer which we have demonstrated to be poorly responsive to PD-L1 blockade. We previously established a signature of acquired ICB resistance which we apply here to new human and murine tumor data sets that have not received prior ICB (or systemic treatment). In doing so, we reveal conservation in EMT-stromal core genes and TGF beta signaling between human and mouse myeloid cells consistent with signatures of de novo ICB resistance. Untreated BBN tumors were highly infiltrated with M0-M2 macrophages, low in T-NK infiltration and modeled a patient subpopulation with poor survival outcome. Concordantly, the combined targeting of TGFb + PD-L1 reverted immune cell exclusion and resulted in increased survival and delayed BBN mouse tumor progression. These data constitute the stromal and myeloid cell populations as providing a coordinate mechanism de novo resistance to PD-L1 blockade in a TGF-beta dependent manner.

Project description:Pre-surgical (neoadjuvant) immune checkpoint blockade has shown promising activity in multiple cancer types, but the molecular mechanisms are not well understood. Here, we characterized early kinetic changes in tumor-infiltrating and circulating immune cells in oral cancer patients treated with neoadjuvant anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-1/CTLA-4 in a phase 2 clinical trial. Tumor-infiltrating CD8 T cells that clonally expanded during immunotherapy expressed elevated tissue-resident memory and cytotoxicity programs compared to non-responding cells. These programs were already active in pre-treatment T cells that later responded, reflecting a capacity for rapid response. Treatment also induced a systemic immune response, including expansion of pre-existing and emergent T cell clonotypes undetectable prior to therapy. The frequency of activated blood CD8 T cells, including pretreatment PD-1-positive KLRG1-negative T cells, was strongly associated with intra-tumoral pathological response, and these activated cells were enriched for tumor-infiltrating T cell clonotypes. These results demonstrate how neoadjuvant checkpoint blockade induces local and systemic tumor immunity.
