Project description:Background. Current clinical biomarkers for the PD-1 blockade therapy are insufficient because they rely only on the tumor properties such as PD-L1 expression frequency and the amount of tumor mutation burden. Identifying reliable responsive biomarkers based on the host immunity is necessary to improve the predictive values. Methods. We investigated the levels of plasma metabolites and T cell properties including energy metabolism markers in the blood of patients with non-small cell lung cancer before and after treatment with nivolumab (N=53). Predictive value of combination markers statistically selected were evaluated by cross validation and linear discriminant analysis on discovery and validation cohorts, respectively. Correlation between plasma metabolites and T cell markers were investigated. Results. The four metabolites derived from microbiome (hippuric acid), fatty acid oxidation (butyrylcarnitine) and redox (cystine and glutathione disulfide) provided high response probability (AUC=0.91). Similarly, a combination of four T cell markers, those related to mitochondrial activation (PGC-1 expression and reactive oxygen species), and the frequencies of CD8+ PD-1high and CD4+ T cells demonstrated even higher prediction value (AUC=0.96). Among the pool of all selected markers, the four T cell markers were exclusively selected as the highest predictive combination probably due to their linkage to the above mentioned metabolite markers. In a prospective validation set (N=24) these four cellular markers showed a high accuracy rate for the clinical responses of the patients (AUC= 0.92). Conclusion. Combination of biomarkers reflecting host immune activity is quite valuable for the responder prediction.

Project description:The ability to modulate immune-inhibitory pathways using checkpoint blockade antibodies such as PD-1, PD-L1, and CTLA-4 represents a significant breakthrough in cancer therapy in recent years. This has driven interest in identifying small-molecule-immunotherapy combinations to increase the proportion of responses. Murine syngeneic models, which have a functional immune system, represent an essential tool for pre-clinical evaluation of new immunotherapies. However, immune response varies widely between models and the translational relevance of each model is not fully understood, making selection of an appropriate pre-clinical model for drug target validation challenging. Utilizing RNAseq transcriptomic profiling, we have characterised the changes in gene regulatory pathways and immune populations in CT26 mice after treatment with the combination of anti-PD-L1 and anti-CTLA-4 antibodies. At day 7 post tumor implant, the pathways analysis of differentially expressed genes indicated an enrichment for migration of leukocytes in response to inflammation and communication between innate and adaptive immune cells. Similarly, analysis of upstream regulators suggested that lipopolysaccharide, IL-1B, TNF, IFNG, and NFKB1A pathways associated with inflammation were activated. At day 14, pathways related T-helper cell signalling pathways were upregulated. In addition, upstream regulators of the lipopolysaccharide and IFNG pathway, as well STAT1 and IL21 pathway were enriched, indicative of innate and adaptive immune response to inflammation.

Project description:Immune checkpoint blockade has revolutionized cancer therapy. In particular, inhibition of programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) is effective for the treatment of metastatic melanoma and other cancers. Despite a dramatic increase in progression-free survival, a large proportion of patients do not show durable response. Therefore, predictive biomarkers of clinical response are urgently needed. Here, we employed high-dimensional single cell mass cytometry and a bioinformatics pipeline for the in-depth characterization of the immune cell subsets in the peripheral blood of metastatic melanoma patients before and after anti-PD-1 immunotherapy. During therapy, we observed a clear treatment response to immunotherapy in the T cell compartment. However, prior to commending therapy a strong predictor of progression free and overall survival in response to anti-PD-1 immunotherapy was the frequency of CD14+CD16-HLA-DRhi monocytes. We could confirm this by conventional flow cytometry in an independent validation cohort and propose this as a novel predictive biomarker for therapy decisions in the clinic. In order to determine whether there are cell intrinsic changes in the monocyte signature, we performed RNA sequencing on sorted CD14+CD16-HLA-DRhi cells from HD, NR and R at baseline. Representative samples (n=4, each) of responders/non responders/ and healthy donors were selected from archival samples stored in the dermatology biobank according to the same clinical criteria used in the discovery and validation cohorts for CyTOF and FACS analysis. CD14+CD16-HLA-DRhiLin- (CD3, CD4, CD19, CD45RO) monocytes were sorted from frozen PBMC form blood samples from HD, R and NR at baseline.

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:Exercise training (ExT) has shown antitumor effects in many preclinical cancer models. In the present study, we utilize MC38 and CT26 cells, which represent MSI and MSS colorectal carcinomas respectively, to study the effects and mechanisms of ExT alone or in combination with PD-1 based immunotherapy. Using treadmill running and PD-1/PD-L1 blockade, we demonstrated that post-implant exercise training has broad anticancer activities in murine models of CRC. Specifically, in MSI CRC models, ExT induces beneficial metabolic and immunological adaptations, leading to a more significant inhibition in tumors treated with PD-1/PD-L1 blockade, suggesting a genotype-directed combinatory therapy for the subgroup of CRC patients. Moreover, ExT might be a safe and alternative anticancer strategy for cancers resistant to the PD-1 based immunotherapy, such as patients with MSS CRC tumors.

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.

Project description:In this study we have examined how the cytokine interleukin-2 (IL-2) synergizes with programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) directed immunotherapy during chronic lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infection. PD-1 blockade in combination with IL-2 is one of the most effective combination therapies in this very stringent LCMV mouse model of life-long chronic infection with irreversible T-cell exhaustion. Our paper makes the following points: First, we show that the more effective viral control seen after PD-1/IL-2 combination therapy compared to PD-1 monotherapy is mediated by the CD8+T-cell response. Then we identify the virus-specific CD8+T cells that proliferate and respond to the combination therapy and show that these are the same lymphoid resident PD-1+TCF-1+stem-like CD8+T cells that act as resource cells to maintain the CD8+T-cell response during chronic infection and also respond to PD-1 blockade. However, the combination therapy dramatically changes the differentiation program of these chronic resource CD8+T cells and results in the generation of transcriptionally and epigenetically distinct effector CD8+T cells that resemble highly functional effector CD8+T cells seen after an acute viral infection. In contrast, PD-1 monotherapy doesnot modify the differentiation program and one gets more virus-specific CD8+T cells but they are transcriptionally and epigenetically similar to what is seen in untreated chronically infected mice. This epigenetic inflexibility of exhausted CD8+T cells is a potential barrier to PD-1 therapy and the ability of this combination therapy to modify the epigenetic signature of virus-specific CD8+T cells during chronic infection could be an important determinant of the striking synergy seen between IL-2 therapy and PD-1 blockade. We also highlight the importance of blocking the PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitory pathway at the target site for effective viral control. Expanding the CD8+ Tcell population and generating better effector cells is important but it is also critical to block PD-1 inhibitory signals at the target site for optimal immunotherapy. Finally, we show that CD25 engagement with IL-2 plays an important and essential role in the observed synergy between IL-2 cytokine and PD-1 blockade. Either blocking CD25 with an antibody or using a mutated version of IL-2 that does not bind CD25 but still binds CD122/132 almost completely abrogated the synergistic effects seen after PD-1/IL-2 combination therapy. There is currently considerable interest in PD-1/IL-2 combination therapy for cancer patients and our fundamental studies defining the underlying mechanisms of how IL-2 synergizes with PD-1 blockade should inform these human translational studies.
