Abstract 1133
Background
Immune checkpoint inhibitors are an important therapy. However, their essence is nonspecific and efficiency of single usage is not satisfactory. The mutant neoantigen specific T (Nas-T) cell, as an adoptive cell treatment, is a specific immunotherapy for each individual. Our previous research has proved that the combined immunotherapy of mutant Nas-T cell and PD1 antibody is more effective than PD1 alone in prolonging PFS (World Conference on Lung Cancer 2018). We aim to evaluate the characteristics of the immune repertoire (IR) as a predictive biomarker for immunotherapy and to construct personalized and specific TCR-T.
Methods
14 patients with advanced solid tumors who failed after multiline treatments were recruited. They were divided into durable clinical benefit (complete response, partial response or stable disease for more than 3 months) and non-durable clinical benefit (DCB and NCB) based on PFS. Peripheral blood was collected at baseline and each cycle. IR-seq of the CDR3 regions of human TCRβ chains was used to interrogate the TCRs frequency. We used single neoantigen to stimulate the infused T cells and performed RNAseq for the sorted CD137(+) cells to obtain the full-length TCR α and β chain. Lastly, we constructed TCR-T cells via transfecting the TCR α/β pair into the T cells of patients and co-cultured with neoantigen to analyze the functionality of TCRs.
Results
After neoantigen pulsing, the clonality of infused T cells pool significantly increased (P = 0.0001), suggesting some tumor-specific T-cells were expanded and enriched after neoantigen pulsing. Compared to baseline, T-cell repertoire of NCB and DCB after 1st cycle displayed significant changes: Shannon 1.19 vs 0.97 (P = 0.002); clonality 0.68 vs 1.19 (P = 0.001). Elevated clonality may indicate expanded tumor-specific T-cells which could recognize mutant neoantigen specifically. Besides, based on the in vitro TCR-T experiments, the constructed TCR-T cells can specifically recognize the mutant neoantigen and lyse the target cells expressing the corresponding neoantigen.Table:
