Project description:Background: Cancer Immunotherapy with cytokines has demonstrated clinical efficacy but is frequently accompanied with severe adverse events caused by excessive and systemic immune activation. Here, we addressed these challenges by engineering a fusion protein of a single, potency-reduced, IL-15 mutein and an anti-PD1 antibody (αPD1-IL15m). This immunocytokine is designed to deliver PD1-mediated avidity-driven IL-2/15 receptor stimulation preferentially to PD1-positive tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) while reducing the natural preference of IL-15 for circulating peripheral NK or T cell Methods: We isolated human lymphocytes from resected hepatocellular carcinoma tissue and cultured these tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in vitro in the presence or absence of an PD1-targeted IL15 mutein, anti-PD1 antibody or IL-15 agonist. After 9 days, CD4+ TILs and CD8+ TILs were sorted by FACS and RNA of 3,000 to 150,000 cells was isolated. Results: The PD1-IL15 fusion cytokine enhanced pro-survival, proliferation and activation pathways in tumor-infiltrating CD4+ and CD8+ cells compared to untreated controls as well as to the combined treatment of single agents (anti-PD1 antibody and IL-15 agonist)

Project description:The anti-PD-1 antibody-IL-15 cytokine fusion approach was developed to optimally activate intra-tumoral CD8+ T cells. We engineered a fusion protein of a single, potency-reduced, IL-15 mutein and an anti-PD-1 antibody (αPD1-IL15m). This immunocytokine is designed to deliver PD-1-mediated avidity-driven IL-2/15 receptor stimulation preferentially to PD-1-positive tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) while reducing the natural preference of IL-15 for circulating peripheral NK or T cells.

Project description:PD-1 blockade therapy, harnessing the cytotoxic potential of CD8+ T cells, has yielded clinical success in treating malignancies. However, its efficacy is often limited due to the progressive differentiation of intratumoral CD8+ T cells into a hypofunctional state known as terminal exhaustion. Despite identifying CD8+ T cell subsets associated with immunotherapy resistance, the molecular pathway triggering the resistance remains elusive. Given the clear association of CD38 with CD8+ T cell subsets resistant to anti-PD1 therapy, we investigated its role in inducing resistance. Phenotypic and functional characterization, along with single-cell RNA sequencing analysis of both in vitro chronically stimulated and intratumoral CD8+ T cells, revealed that CD38-expressing CD8+ T cells are terminally exhausted. Exploring the molecular mechanism, we discovered that CD38 expression was crucial in promoting terminal differentiation of CD8+ T cells by suppressing TCF1 expression, thereby rendering them unresponsive to anti-PD1 therapy. Genetic ablation of CD38 in tumor reactive CD8+ T cells restored TCF1 levels and improved the responsiveness to anti-PD1 therapy in mice. Mechanistically, CD38 expression on exhausted CD8+ T cells elevated intracellular Ca2+ levels through RyR2 calcium channel activation. This, in turn, promoted chronic AKT activation, leading to TCF1 loss. Knockdown of RyR2 or inhibition of AKT in CD8+ T cells maintained TCF1 levels, induced a sustained anti-tumor response, and enhanced responsiveness to anti-PD1 therapy. Thus, targeting CD38 represents a potential strategy to improve the efficacy of anti-PD1 treatment in cancer.

Project description:Immunotherapies have shown remarkable, albeit tumor-selective therapeutic benefits in the clinic. Here we evaluated the effects of the immunocytokine PD1-IL2v in a mouse model of de novo pancreatic neuroendocrine cancer resistant to checkpoint and other immunotherapies. PD1-IL2v is a bi-specific molecule based on a bivalent PD-1 antibody, serving as a targeting moiety, fused to an immuno-stimulatory IL-2 variant (IL2v) to precisely deliver IL2v to PD-1+ T-cells in the tumor microenvironment. PD1-IL2v elicited dramatic infiltration by CD8 T cells, notably stem-like and effector memory T cells, resulting in tumor regression and enhanced survival in mice. Furthermore, combining anti-PD-L1 with PD1-IL2v sustained the response phase, improving therapeutic efficacy both by reprogramming immunosuppressive tumor-associated macrophages and tumor endothelial cells , and by enhancing TCR immune repertoire diversity. The data motivate consideration of clinical trials to evaluate the combination therapy of PD1-IL2v and anti-PD-L1, especially in immunotherapy-resistant tumors infiltrated with PD-1+ T stem-like CD8 T cells.

Project description:Mechanistic understanding of the immune checkpoint receptor PD1 is largely based on mouse models, but human and mouse PD1 orthologs exhibit only 59.6% identity in amino acid sequences, raising the question of potential cross-species functional differences. Based on our biochemical evidence that human PD1 is more inhibitory than mouse PD1, we addressed the functional consequence of PD1 humanization in a mouse melanoma model with adoptively transferred T cells. Using CITE-seq (cellular indexing of transcriptomes and epitopes by sequencing), we found that humanization of PD1 intracellular domain (ICD) in CD8 T cells decreases the numbers, effector functions, and differentiation of intratumoral T cells. Specifically, PD1 humanization reduced the number of effector-like exhausted T cell subset while increasing the precursor-exhausted T cell subset, the latter of which is known to respond to anti-PD(L)1 therapy.

Project description:Interleukin-2 (IL-2) variants with increased CD25 dependence that selectively expand Foxp3+ regulatory T (TR) cells are in clinical trials for treating inflammatory diseases. Using an Fc-fused IL-2 mutein (Fc.IL-2 mutein) we developed that prevents diabetes in non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice, we show that Fc.IL-2 mutein induced an activated TR population with elevated proliferation, a transcriptional program associated with Stat5- and TCR-dependent gene modules, and high IL-10 and CTLA-4 expression. Increased IL-10 signaling limited surface MHC class II upregulation during conventional dendritic cell (cDC) maturation, while increased CTLA-4-dependent transendocytosis led to the transfer of CD80 and CD86 costimulatory ligands from maturing cDCs to TR cells. In NOD mice, Fc.IL-2 mutein treatment promoted the suppression of cDCs in the inflamed pancreas and pancreatic lymph nodes resulting in T cell anergy. Thus, IL-2 mutein-expanded TR cells have enhanced functional properties and restrict cDC function, offering promise for targeted immunotherapy use in autoimmune disease.

Project description:Cancers only develop if they escape immunosurveillance, and the success of cancer immunotherapies relies in most cases on their ability to restore effector T-cell functions, particularly IFN-γ. Revolutionizing the treatment of many cancers, immunotherapies targeting immune checkpoints such as PD1 may increase survival and cure patients. Unfortunately, although immunotherapy has greatly improved the prognosis of patients, not all respond to anti-PD1 immunotherapy, making it crucial to identify alternative treatments that could be combined with current immunotherapies to improve their effectiveness. Here, we show that iron supplementation significantly boosts T-cell responses in vivo and in vitro. Such a phenomenon could be the consequence of a metabolic reprogramming of T cells by iron. The "adjuvant" effect of iron results in a strong slowdown of tumor-cell growth after tumor-cell line transplantation in mice. Specifically, our results suggest that iron supplementation promotes anti-tumor responses by increasing IFN-γ production by T cells. In addition, iron supplementation considerably improves the efficacy of anti-PD1 cancer immunotherapy in mice. Finally, our study suggests that, in cancer patients, the quality and efficacy of the anti-tumor response following anti-PD1 immunotherapy may be modulated by plasma ferritin levels. In summary, our results suggest the benefits of iron supplementation on the reactivation of anti-tumor responses and support the relevance of a fruitful association between immunotherapy and iron supplementation.

Project description:Patients with advanced melanoma have shown an improved outlook after receiving anti-PD1 therapy, but the low response rate restricts clinical benefit; therefore, enhancing anti-PD1 therapy efficacy remains a major challenge. Here, our findings show significantly higher abundance of α-KG in healthy controls, anti-PD1-sensitive melanoma-bearing mice, and anti-PD1-sensitive melanoma patients; moreover, supplementation with α-KG enhanced the efficacy of anti-PD1 immunotherapy and increased PD-L1 expression in melanomas via STAT1/3. We also found that supplementation with α-KG significantly increased methylcytosine dioxygenase TET2/3, which led to an increased 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) level in the PD-L1 promoter. As a consequence, STAT1/3 had been recognized and stabilized in PD-L1 promoter to upregulate PD-L1 expression. Importantly, single-cell sequencing of preclinical samples and analysis of clinical data revealed that the TET2/3-STAT1/3-CD274 signaling was associated with sensitivity to anti-PD1 treatment in melanoma. Taken together, we provide a novel insight into α-KG's function in melanoma anti-PD1 treatment and supplement of α-KG is a novel promising strategy to improve the efficacy of anti-PD1 therapy.
