We have previously developed an immunological niche, consisting of a microporous implant in the subcutaneous space, that supports tissue formation whose immune composition is consistent with that within vital organs. Herein, we investigated dynamic gene expression within this immunological niche to provide biomarkers of response to anti-PD-1. In a 4T1 model of metastatic TNBC, we observed sensitivity and resistance to anti-PD-1 based on primary tumor growth and survival. The niche was biopsied before, during, and after anti-PD-1 therapy, and analyzed for cell types and gene expression indicative of treatment refractivity. Myeloid cell-to-lymphocyte ratios were altered between ICB-sensitivity and resistance. Longitudinal analysis of gene expression implicated dynamic myeloid cell function that stratified sensitivity from resistance. A niche-derived gene signature predicted sensitivity or resistance prior to therapy.

Dysregulated metabolism is a common feature of many cancers, and metabolites are known to modulate functions in cancer cells. To identify potential metabolic pathways involved in anti-tumor immune response, we employed a metabolic inhibitor-based drug screen in human lung cancer cell lines and examined expression changes in a panel of immune regulator genes. Notably, pharmacologic inhibition of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) downregulated cancer cell expression of cluster of differentiation 24 (CD24), an anti-phagocytic surface protein. Genetic modulation of DHFR resulted in decreased CD24 expression, whereas tetrahydrofolate, the product of DHFR, enhanced CD24 expression. DHFR inhibition and the consequent CD24 decrease enhanced T cell-mediated tumor cell killing, whereas replenishment of DHFR or CD24 partially mitigated the immune-mediated tumor cell killing that resulted from methotrexate treatment in cancer cells. Moreover, publicly available clinical data analyses further revealed the link between DHFR, CD24, and the antitumor immune response in lung cancer patients.

CD19-targeted CAR-T cells yield complete remission (CR) rates of about 90% in R/R ALL and about 50% in R/R NHL, respectively, while BCMA-targeted CAR-T cells yield CR rate of about 50%−80% in R/R MM. Notably, the US Food and Drug Administration have approved six CAR-T cell products (tisagenlecleucel, axicabtagene ciloleucel, brexucabtagene autoleucel, lisocabtagene maraleucel, idecabtagene vicleucel, and ciltacabtagene autoleucel) for the treatment of R/R B-NHL, R/R ALL, and R/R MM. However, some patients might not respond to such therapy or quickly relapse after CAR-T cell infusion, which is likely due to the dysfunction and poor persistence of CAR-T cells or the modulation of specific antigen. Thus, alternative treatment strategies must be investigated. In addition, accumulating research have been conducted to discover novel target of antigens with therapeutic efficacy and utility for generating CAR-T cells against acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Safety during CAR-T cell treatment is another important issue, concerning complications such as cytokine release syndrome, immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS), pancytopenia, and infection. Despite the fact that the majority of those adverse effects are minimal, the risk of a life-threatening situation still exists. Cautious treatment for severe adverse events requires a multidisciplinary approach with involvement of not only oncologists but also other internal medicine doctors to guarantee diagnosis and treatment in time.
