Abstract

Compartmentation of the immune response into 3 main spatial cancer-immune phenotypes (SCIs) – inflamed, excluded, and desert – has been proposed as the main predictor of response to immune checkpoint inhibitors in solid tumors. The objective of the study was to define and characterize the SCI in a consecutive series of 213 endometrial carcinomas (ECs) by correlating it with molecular subtypes, clinicopathologic features, and prognosis. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) and next-generation sequencing were used to assign surrogate molecular EC subtypes: POLE mutant (POLE), mismatch repair deficient (MMRd), TP53 mutant (p53abn), and no specific molecular profile (NSMP). Immune cell markers (CD20, CD3, CD8, CD68, PD-L1) were assessed by IHC on whole sections and quantified by digital image analysis to define the 3 SCIs. ECs were stratified into 4 molecular subtypes: 17 (8.0%) POLE, 68 (31.9%) MMRd, 42 (19.7%) p53abn, and 86 (40.4%) NSMP. SCI determination showed 105 (49.3%) inflamed, 62 (29.1%) desert, and 46 (25.6%) excluded tumors. The inflamed phenotype was more prevalent in MMRd (64.7%) and POLE (76.5%) subtypes compared with NSMP (45.3%) and p53abn (21.4%). SCI revealed a strong correlation with disease-free survival in NSMP tumors: inflamed 96.2%, desert 83.2%, and excluded 40.5%. The SCI prognostic impact was also maintained in NSMP cases treated with adjuvant therapy resulting in a significant difference in recurrence between the inflamed and excluded phenotypes. To simplify SCI determination, a subset of immune cell markers was selected as appropriate to define the 3 SCI patterns: high intraepithelial CD8 for the inflamed phenotype; CD68, CD20, and PD-L1 to discriminate between desert and excluded tumors. The integration of SCI into molecular classification could be a promising opportunity to improve the prognostic risk stratification of patients and may guide the therapeutic approach, particularly in the NSMP subtype. Thus, the different patterns of immune response are a new prognostic parameter in the NSMP subtype.

空间癌症--免疫表型预测了NSMP分子亚型子宫内膜癌较短的无复发生存期。
免疫反应分为三大空间癌症免疫表型(SCI)--炎症型、排斥型和荒漠型--已被认为是预测实体瘤对免疫检查点抑制剂反应的主要指标。本研究的目的是通过将SCI与分子亚型、临床病理特征和预后相关联来定义和描述连续213例子宫内膜癌(EC)的SCI。免疫组化(IHC)和下一代测序(NGS)被用来确定代用的分子亚型:POLE突变型(POLE)、错配修复缺陷型(MMRd)、TP53突变型(p53abn)和无特异性分子特征型(NSMP)。通过全切片 IHC 评估免疫细胞标记物(CD20、CD3、CD8、CD68、PD-L1),并通过数字图像分析进行量化,以确定三种 SCI。心肌细胞被分为四种分子亚型:17个(8.0%)POLE亚型、68个(31.9%)MMRd亚型、42个(19.7%)p53abn亚型和86个(40.4%)NSMP亚型。SCI 测定结果显示,105 例(49.3%)为炎性肿瘤,62 例(29.1%)为荒漠性肿瘤,46 例(25.6%)为排除性肿瘤。与NSMP(45.3%)和p53abn(21.4%)相比,炎症表型在MMRd(64.7%)和POLE(76.5%)亚型中更为普遍。SCI与NSMP肿瘤的DFS密切相关:炎症96.2%,荒漠83.2%,除外40.5%。在接受辅助治疗的NSMP病例中,SCI对预后的影响也保持不变,这导致炎性表型和除外表型之间的复发率存在显著差异。为了简化SCI的判定,研究人员选择了合适的免疫细胞标记物子集来定义三种SCI模式:上皮内CD8高的为炎症表型;CD68、CD20和PD-L1用于区分荒漠型和排除型肿瘤。将 SCI 纳入分子分类可能是改善患者预后风险分层的大好机会,并可指导治疗方法,尤其是在 NSMP 亚型中。因此,不同的免疫反应模式是NSMP亚型的一个新的预后参数。
