Project description:Purpose: To find out the patients who are most sensitive and effective to the anti-PD-L1 and TGF-β bifunctional fusion protein in the treatment of recurrent cervical cancer. Patients and methods: We report two cases of recurrent cervical cancer treated with the anti-PD-L1 and TGF-β bifunctional fusion protein. We described the clinical course, clinical characteristics, and genetic characteristics of the two patients, and analyzed the changes of gene expression in the two patients after treatment. Results: Although PD-L1 expression and HPV status were same in the two patients, the treatment effect of two patients with recurrent cervical cancer was different, according to the evaluation of enhanced computed tomography (CT), one was partial response (PR) and the other was progressive disease (PD), which may indicate that PD-L1 expression and HPV status of patients is not enough to predict the effectiveness of the anti-PD-L1 and TGF-β bifunctional fusion protein treatments. Then, we demonstrated that the changes of peripheral blood lymphocytes of two patients during the treatment had different trends. Moreover, number of alterable genes in PR patient is much greater than that in PD patient, indicating PR patient may be more sensible to the anti-PD-L1 and TGF-β bifunctional fusion protein treatments. Total 4844 genes changing-fate gene set selected which is believed conducting anti-cancer function during the anti-PD-L1 and TGF-β bifunctional fusion protein treatments. Furthermore, we identified that changing-fate genes were correlated with female reproductive organ cancer, infectious disease, inflammatory disease, immune system, indicating these genes may conducting anti-cancer, anti-inflammation and immune function. Conclusion: Anti-PD-L1 and TGF-β bifunctional fusion protein is feasible for the treatment of recurrent cervical cancer. Multi-center, large-sample prospective clinical studies are still needed to further explore the efficacy of anti-PD-L1 and TGF-β bifunctional fusion protein in recurrent cervical cancer and screen appropriate patients, so as to achieve the maximum survival benefit of patients.

Project description:Tumor immunogenicity enhanced by radiotherapy (RT), is often counterbalanced by immune evasive mechanisms and tissue remodeling effects via upregulation of transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1). We report that bintrafusp alfa (BA), a bifunctional fusion protein that simultaneously inhibits TGF-β and PD-L1, is a favorable combination partner for RT in eradicating multiple treatment-resistant tumor models. Beneficial effects of BA+RT (BART) are partly attributed to counterbalancing undesired RT effects and local tumor microenvironment reprograming, leading to reconstitution of tumor immunity and regression of spontaneous lung metastases. Intriguingly, BA, but neither TGF-β trap nor anti–PD-L1 alone, attenuates late-stage RT-induced lung fibrosis. Single cell transcriptome show TGF-β expression is confined to PD-L1+ endothelium and M2/lipofibroblast-like cells. Hence, superior effects of BA could be attributed to its ability to trap TGF-β to relevant PD-L1+ compartments. Here, we provide rationales that BART resensitizes tumors and broadens the therapeutic window.

Project description:Single cell transcriptome showed TGF-β expression is confined to PD-L1+ endothelium and M2 /lipofibroblast-like cells. Hence, superior effects of BA could be attributed to its ability to trap TGF-β to relevant PD-L1+ compartments. Mice were irradiated (photon) and one group of mice was treated with Bintrafusp. Lungs were subsequently dissociated and processed with the 10x genomics 3 prime v2 kit.

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:Blocking the PD-1/PD-L1 immunosuppressive pathway has shown promise in the treatment of certain cancers including melanoma. This study investigates differences in the gene expression profiles of human melanomas that do or do not display the immunosuppressive protein PD-L1. Further understanding of genes expressed within the tumor microenvironment of PD-L1+ tumors may lead to improved rationally designed treatments. Gene expression profiling was performed on total RNA extracted by laser capture microdissection from 11 archived formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) melanoma specimens, 5 of which were PD-L1 positive and 6 PD-L1 negative. Details of the design, and the gene signatures found are given in the paper associated with this GEO Series: Janis M. Taube, Geoffrey D. Young, Tracee L. McMiller, Shuming Chen, January T.

Project description:Programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) is known to suppress immune system and to be an unfavorable prognostic factor in ovarian cancer. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the function of PD-L1 in peritoneal dissemination. Tumor cell lysis by CTLs was attenuated when PD-L1 on tumor cells was overexpressed and promoted when it was silenced. PD-L1 overexpression also inhibited gathering and degranulation of CTLs. Gene expression profile of mouse CTLs caused by PD-L1-overexpressing ovarian cancer was related to human CTLs exhaustion. In mouse ovarian cancer dissemination models, depleting PD-L1 expression on tumor cells resulted in inhibited tumor growth in the peritoneal cavity and prolonged survival. Restoring immune function by inhibiting immune-suppressive factors such as PD-L1 may be a promising therapeutic strategy for peritoneal dissemination. Genome-wide transcriptional changes in OT-1 mouse CD8+ T cells that were co-incubated with OVA peptide-loaded ID8 mouse ovarian cancer cell lines. CTLs from 4 mice were devided into 2 groups, and co-incubated with PD-L1-overexpressed ID8 or PD-L1-depleted ID8.

Project description:We examined tumours from a large cohort of patients with metastatic urothelial bladder cancer (mUC) treated with an anti–PD-L1 agent (atezolizumab) and identified major determinants of clinical response and immune escape. Whole transcriptome profiles were generated for 368 patients using TruSeq RNA Access technology (Illumina). Somatic mutations were determined via whole exome sequencing for a subset of these patients. - Response was associated with CD8+ T effector cell phenotype and, to an even greater extent, high neoantigen or tumour mutation burden (TMB). On the other hand, lack of response was associated with a transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) signature, particularly in patients with CD8+ T cells preferentially residing in collagen-rich matrix surrounding tumours. Integration of these three independent biological features provided the best basis for understanding outcome in this setting. -

Project description:PD-L1 Inhibitor Regulates the miR-33a-5p/PTEN Signaling Pathway and Can Be Targeted to Sensitize Glioblastomas to Radiation. Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and lethal brain tumor in adults. Ionizing radiation (IR) is a standard treatment for GBM patients and results in DNA damage. However, the clinical efficacy of IR is limited due to therapeutic resistance. The programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) blockade has a shown the potential to increase the efficacy of radiotherapy by inhibiting DNA damage and repair responses. The miR-33a-5p is an essential microRNA that promotes GBM growth and self-renewal. In this study, we investigated whether a PD-L1 inhibitor (a small molecule inhibitor) exerted radio-sensitive effects to impart an anti-tumor function in GBM cells by modulating miR-33a-5p. U87 MG cells and U251 cells were pretreated with PD-L1 inhibitor. The PD-L1 inhibitor-induced radio-sensitivity in these cells was assessed by assaying cellular apoptosis, clonogenic survival assays, and migration. TargetScan and luciferase assay showed that miR-33a-5p targeted the phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) 3' untranslated region. The expression level of PTEN was measured by western blotting, and was also silenced using small interfering RNAs. The levels of DNA damage following radiation was measured by the presence of γ-H2AX foci, cell cycle, and the mRNA of the DNA damage-related genes, BRCA1, NBS1, RAD50, and MRE11. Our results demonstrated that the PD-L1 inhibitor significantly decreased the expression of the target gene, miR-33a-5p. In addition, pretreatment of U87 MG and U251 cells with the PD-L1 inhibitor increased radio-sensitivity, as indicated by increased apoptosis, while decreased survival and migration of GBM cells. Mir-33a-5p overexpression or silencing PTEN in U87 MG and U251 cells significantly attenuated PD-L1 radiosensitive effect. Additionally, PD-L1 inhibitor treatment suppressed the expression of the DNA damage response-related genes, BRCA1, NBS1, RAD50, and MRE11. Our results demonstrated a novel role for the PD-L1 inhibitor in inducing radio- sensitivity in GBM cells, where inhibiting miR-33a-5p, leading to PTEN activated, and inducing DNA damage was crucial for antitumor immunotherapies to treat GBM.
