Abstract
Immunotherapy has shown limited success in recurrent ovarian cancer (OC), with prognostic insights largely derived from treatment-naive tumors. We analyzed 697 tumor samples (566 primary and 131 recurrent) from 595 OC patients across five independent cohorts, capturing tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) heterogeneity and identifying four immune phenotypes linked to prognosis and TIL:myeloid networks driving malignant progression. We found that in preclinical mouse models, mirroring inflamed human OCs, the recurrent Brca1mut tumors maintained activated TILs:dendritic cells (DCs) niches but evaded immune control through upregulation of COX/PGE2 signaling. Conversely, recurrent Brca1wt tumors displayed loss of TILs:DCs niches and accumulated immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) networks featuring Trem2/ApoEhigh tumor associated macrophages (TAMs) and Nduf4l2high/Galectin3high malignant states. Recurrent tumors recapitulate the immunogenic landscapes of original cancers. Our findings reveal BRCA-dependent TIL:myeloid crosstalk as key to persistent immunogenicity in recurrent OC and propose new targets to enhance chemotherapy efficacy.
期刊介绍:
Cancer Cell is a journal that focuses on promoting major advances in cancer research and oncology. The primary criteria for considering manuscripts are as follows:
Major advances: Manuscripts should provide significant advancements in answering important questions related to naturally occurring cancers.
Translational research: The journal welcomes translational research, which involves the application of basic scientific findings to human health and clinical practice.
Clinical investigations: Cancer Cell is interested in publishing clinical investigations that contribute to establishing new paradigms in the treatment, diagnosis, or prevention of cancers.
Insights into cancer biology: The journal values clinical investigations that provide important insights into cancer biology beyond what has been revealed by preclinical studies.
Mechanism-based proof-of-principle studies: Cancer Cell encourages the publication of mechanism-based proof-of-principle clinical studies, which demonstrate the feasibility of a specific therapeutic approach or diagnostic test.
