Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized the therapeutic landscape of cancer therapy. This study aimed to develop novel risk classifiers to predict the risk of immune-related adverse events (irAEs) and the probability of clinical benefits. Patients with cancer who received ICIs from the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi 'an Jiaotong University from November 2020 to October 2022 were recruited and followed up. Logistic regression analyses were performed to identify independent predictive factors for irAEs and clinical response. Two nomograms were developed to predict the irAEs and clinical responses of these individuals, with a receiver operating characteristic curve to assess their predictive ability. Decision curve analysis was performed to estimate the clinical utility of the nomogram. This study included 583 patients with cancer. Among them, 111 (19.0%) developed irAEs. Duration of treatment (DOT)>3 cycles, hepatic-metastases, IL2>2.225 pg/mL, and IL8>7.39 pg/mL were correlated with higher irAEs risk. A total of 347 patients were included in the final efficacy analysis, with an overall clinical benefit rate of 39.7%. DOT>3 cycles, nonhepatic-metastases, and irAEs and IL8>7.39 pg/mL were independent predictive factors of clinical benefit. Ultimately, 2 nomograms were successfully established to predict the probability of irAEs and their clinical benefits. Ultimately, 2 nomograms were successfully established to predict the probability of irAEs and clinical benefits. The receiver operating characteristic curves yielded acceptable nomogram performance. Calibration curves and decision curve analysis supported the hypothesis that nomograms could provide more significant net clinical benefits to these patients. Specific baseline plasma cytokines were closely correlated with irAEs and clinical responses in these individuals.

免疫检查点抑制剂(ICIs)已经彻底改变了癌症治疗的前景。本研究旨在开发新的风险分类器来预测免疫相关不良事件(irAE)的风险和临床获益的概率。对2020年11月至2022年10月在Xi的交通大学第一附属医院接受ICI治疗的癌症患者进行招募和随访。进行Logistic回归分析,以确定irAE和临床反应的独立预测因素。开发了两个列线图来预测这些人的irAE和临床反应,并用受试者操作特征曲线来评估他们的预测能力。进行决策曲线分析以估计列线图的临床效用。这项研究包括583名癌症患者。其中111例(19.0%)发生irAE。治疗持续时间(DOT)>3个周期、肝转移、IL2>2.25pg/mL和IL8>7.39pg/mL与较高的irAE风险相关。最终疗效分析共纳入347名患者,总体临床获益率为39.7%。DOT>3个周期、非肝转移、irAE和IL8>7.39 pg/mL是临床获益的独立预测因素。最终,成功地建立了2个列线图来预测irAE的概率及其临床益处。最终,成功地建立了2个列线图来预测irAE的概率和临床益处。接收器工作特性曲线产生了可接受的诺模图性能。校准曲线和决策曲线分析支持列线图可以为这些患者提供更显著的净临床益处的假设。在这些个体中,特定的基线血浆细胞因子与irAE和临床反应密切相关。

Treatment with chemoimmunotherapy (CIT) is considered an appropriate front-line treatment option for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). However, outcomes remain suboptimal. Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor (BTKi) combined with anti-CD20 antibody is an effective treatment for treatment-naïve, relapsed/refractory CLL patients. A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials was performed to compare the efficacy and safety of CIT versus BTKi + anti-CD20 antibody as front-line treatment for CLL patients. The endpoints of interest included progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), overall response rate (ORR), complete response (CR) rate, and safety. Four trials (including 1479 patients) were available as of December 2022 and fulfilled the eligibility criteria. BTKi + anti-CD20 antibody treatment significantly prolonged PFS [hazard ratio (HR), 0.25; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.15-0.42] compared with CIT, while the combination therapy did not significantly improve OS compared with CIT (HR, 0.73; 95% CI, 0.50-1.06). We observed consistent benefits for PFS among patients with unfavorable features. Although pooled analysis indicated that the addition of BTKi to anti-CD20 antibody led to a higher ORR than CIT [risk ratio (RR), 1.16; 95% CI, 1.13-1.20], there was no difference in CR between the two arms (RR, 1.10; 95% CI, 0.27-4.55). The risk of grade ≥3 adverse effects (AE) was comparable between the two groups (RR, 1.04; 95% CI, 0.92-1.17). The BTKi + anti-CD20 antibody therapy has superior outcomes compared with CIT among patients with treatment-naïve CLL, without excess of toxicity. Future studies should compare next-generation targeted agent combinations versus CIT to determine the optimal management of CLL patients.

化学免疫疗法(CIT)被认为是治疗慢性淋巴细胞白血病(CLL)的合适的一线治疗选择。然而,结果仍然不理想。Bruton酪氨酸激酶抑制剂(BTKi)联合抗CD20抗体是治疗幼稚、复发/难治性CLL患者的有效方法。对随机对照试验进行了系统综述和荟萃分析,以比较CIT与BTKi+抗CD20抗体作为CLL患者一线治疗的疗效和安全性。感兴趣的终点包括无进展生存期(PFS)、总生存期(OS)、总有效率(ORR)、完全缓解率(CR)和安全性。截至2022年12月,已有四项试验(包括1479名患者)符合资格标准。BTKi+抗CD20抗体治疗显著延长PFS[风险比(HR),0.25;95%置信区间(CI),0.15-0.42],与CIT相比,而联合治疗并没有显著改善OS(HR,0.73;95%CI,0.50-1.06)。尽管汇总分析表明,将BTKi添加到抗CD20抗体中导致比CIT更高的ORR[风险比(RR),1.16;95%CI,1.13-1.20],两组之间的CR没有差异(RR,1.10;95%CI,0.27-4.55)。两组之间发生≥3级不良反应(AE)的风险具有可比性(RR,1.04;95%CI,0.92-1.17)。在治疗早期CLL的患者中,BTKi+抗CD20抗体治疗的结果优于CIT,没有过度毒性。未来的研究应将下一代靶向药物组合与CIT进行比较,以确定CLL患者的最佳管理。

Checkpoint inhibition targeting programmed cell-death protein 1 has demonstrated efficacy for a wide range of indications including cutaneous malignancy. However, immune-related adverse events (irAEs), including infrequent but visually impactful ocular irAEs, require careful consideration of treatment options, including medication withdrawal, local corticosteroids, or rarely immunomodulation. This case presents a 53-year-old woman who developed uveitis and mucous membrane ulcers after treatment for numerous cutaneous neoplasms, primarily squamous cell carcinoma, with the programmed cell-death protein 1 inhibitor cemiplimab. Ophthalmic examination revealed diffuse choroidal depigmentation consistent with a Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada-like syndrome. Topical and periocular steroids were used to treat the intraocular inflammation, and cemiplimab was discontinued. Because of ongoing severe uveitis, systemic corticosteroids and corticosteroid-sparing immunosuppression were initiated. Specifically, azathioprine and methotrexate were introduced, but each was stopped due to side effects, prompting the initiation of adalimumab (ADA) treatment. While ADA controlled intraocular inflammation, the squamous cell carcinomas were noted to progress, resulting in the discontinuation of ADA. However, a uveitis recurrence was observed. After a discussion of risks and benefits of biologic immunosuppressive therapy, including the risk of vision loss, ADA was restarted with successful disease quiescence at a 16-month follow-up. The cutaneous neoplasms were managed with topical and intralesional therapies, such as 5-fluorouracil. Recent dermatologic examinations suggested no new cutaneous lesions. This scenario presents the effective use of ADA in an ocular irAE that balances the management of sight-threatening ocular inflammation with the risk of promoting recurrent or de novo neoplastic disease.

靶向程序性细胞死亡蛋白1的检查点抑制已证明对包括皮肤恶性肿瘤在内的广泛适应症有效。然而,免疫相关不良事件(irAE),包括罕见但对视觉有影响的眼部irAE,需要仔细考虑治疗方案,包括停药、局部皮质类固醇或很少进行免疫调节。该病例为一名53岁的女性,在用程序性细胞死亡蛋白1抑制剂西米普利单抗治疗多种皮肤肿瘤(主要是鳞状细胞癌)后,出现葡萄膜炎和粘膜溃疡。眼科检查显示弥漫性脉络膜色素脱失符合Vogt Koyanagi Harada样综合征。使用局部和眼周类固醇治疗眼内炎症,并停用西咪咪单抗。由于持续的严重葡萄膜炎,开始了全身皮质类固醇和保留皮质类固醇的免疫抑制。具体而言,引入了硫唑嘌呤和甲氨蝶呤,但由于副作用,每种药物都被停止,促使阿达木单抗(ADA)治疗开始。虽然ADA控制了眼内炎症,但鳞状细胞癌进展缓慢,导致ADA停用。然而,观察到葡萄膜炎复发。在讨论了生物免疫抑制治疗的风险和益处(包括视力丧失的风险)后,在16个月的随访中,ADA被重新启动,并成功地使疾病平静下来。皮肤肿瘤采用局部和病灶内治疗,如5-氟尿嘧啶。最近的皮肤科检查显示没有新的皮肤病变。这种情况表明ADA在眼部irAE中的有效使用,平衡了威胁视力的眼部炎症的管理与促进复发或新发肿瘤疾病的风险。

Prognostic signatures related to the efficacy of immunotherapy have not been determined in gastric cancer (GC). We identified the differentially expressed genes between the CR/PR and SD/PD groups with the R package "limma" (false discovery rate <0.05) in the IMvigor210 data set. The GSE13861 (n=65), GSE15459 (n=192), GSE26899 (n=93), GSE26901 (n=109), GSE28541 (n=40), GSE34942 (n=56), and GSE62254 (n=300) cohorts were merged into a training cohort (n=855). Univariate Cox regression analysis, LASSO penalized Cox regression analysis, and multivariate Cox regression analysis were jointly applied to construct the prognostic model. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)-STAD (n=371), GSE84437 (n=433), GSE26253 (n=432), and IMvigor210 (n=348) cohorts were utilized for external validation. The GC patients were divided into 16 subgroups according to clinical features for universal applicability validation. Repeated validation confirmed that the overall survival of the high-risk (HR) group was significantly reduced compared with that of the low-risk (LR) group. The HR group showed a higher infiltration abundance of regulatory T cells, macrophages, T follicular helper cells, and natural killer T cells, whereas the infiltration levels of activated CD4 T cells and monocytes were upregulated in the LR group. The calcium, TGF-β, MAPK, Hedgehog, and KRAS signaling pathways were overactivated in the HR group, while the hallmarks related to DNA damage repair and metabolism were enriched in the LR group. In addition, the LR group had high tumor mutation burden, FLG, and OBSCN mutations. A prognostic risk classifier for GC patients was identified and validated by carrying out a multicenter retrospective study.

Breast cancer (BC) treatment has traditionally been challenging due to tumor heterogeneity. Bispecific antibodies (bsAbs) offer a promising approach for overcoming these challenges by targeting multiple specific epitopes. In the current study, we designed a new bsAb against the most common BC cell surface proteins (SPs). To achieve this, we analyzed RNA-sequencing data to identify differentially expressed genes, which were further evaluated using Gene Ontology enrichment, Hidden Markov Models, clinical trial data, and survival analysis to identify druggable gene-encoding cell SPs. Based on these analyses, we constructed and expressed a bsAb targeting the mucin 1 (MUC1) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) proteins, which are the dominant druggable gene-encoding cell SPs in BC. The recombinant anti-MUC1×EGFR bsAb demonstrated efficient production and high specificity for MUC1 and EGFR + cell lines and BC tissue. Furthermore, the bsAb significantly reduced the proliferation and migration of BC cells. Our results suggested that simultaneous targeting with bsAbs could be a promising targeted therapy for improving the overall efficacy of BC treatment.

由于肿瘤的异质性,乳腺癌(BC)的治疗一直具有挑战性。双特异性抗体(bsAbs)通过靶向多个特异性表位,为克服这些挑战提供了一种有希望的方法。在目前的研究中,我们设计了一种新的针对最常见的BC细胞表面蛋白(SPs)的bsAb。为了实现这一目标,我们分析了rna测序数据以鉴定差异表达基因,并通过基因本体富集、隐马尔可夫模型、临床试验数据和生存分析进一步评估这些基因,以鉴定可药物基因编码的细胞SPs。在此基础上,我们构建并表达了一种靶向mucin 1 (MUC1)和表皮生长因子受体(EGFR)蛋白的bsAb,这两种蛋白是BC细胞SPs的主要药物基因。重组anti-MUC1×EGFR bsAb对MUC1和EGFR +细胞系和BC组织具有高效的生产和高特异性。此外,bsAb显著降低了BC细胞的增殖和迁移。我们的研究结果表明,与bsab同时靶向可能是一种有希望的靶向治疗方法,可以提高BC治疗的总体疗效。

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized the treatment of various malignancies, but are associated with serious adverse events like pancreatitis. Current guidelines are limited to the first step in treating acute ICI-related pancreatitis with steroids but lack treatment advices for steroid dependent pancreatitis. We describe a case series of 3 patients who developed ICI-related pancreatitis with chronic features such as exocrine insufficiency and pancreatic atrophy at imaging. Our first case developed after treatment with pembrolizumab. The pancreatitis responded well after discontinuation of immunotherapy but imaging showed pancreatic atrophy and exocrine pancreatic insufficiency persisted. Cases 2 and 3 developed after treatment with nivolumab. In both, pancreatitis responded well to steroids. However during steroid tapering, pancreatitis recurred and the latter developed exocrine pancreatic insufficiency and pancreatic atrophy at imaging. Our cases demonstrate resemblances with autoimmune pancreatitis based on clinical and imaging findings. In line, both diseases are T-cell mediated and for autoimmune pancreatitis azathioprine is considered as maintenance therapy. Guidelines of other T-cell mediated diseases like ICI-related hepatitis suggest tacrolimus. After adding tacrolimus in case 2 and azathioprine in case 3, steroids could be completely tapered and no new episodes of pancreatitis have occurred. These findings support the idea that the treatment modalities for other T-cell mediated diseases are worthwhile options for steroid dependent ICI-related pancreatitis.

免疫检查点抑制剂(ICIs)已经彻底改变了各种恶性肿瘤的治疗,但与胰腺炎等严重不良事件相关。目前的指南仅限于用类固醇治疗急性ici相关性胰腺炎的第一步,但缺乏类固醇依赖性胰腺炎的治疗建议。我们描述了3例影像学表现为外分泌功能不全和胰腺萎缩的慢性胰腺炎患者的病例系列。我们的第一个病例是在使用派姆单抗治疗后出现的。胰腺炎在停止免疫治疗后反应良好,但影像学显示胰腺萎缩和外分泌胰腺功能不全持续存在。病例2和3是在纳武单抗治疗后发生的。在这两种情况下,胰腺炎对类固醇反应良好。然而,在类固醇减量期间,胰腺炎复发,后者在影像学上表现为外分泌胰腺功能不全和胰腺萎缩。根据临床和影像学表现,我们的病例与自身免疫性胰腺炎相似。因此,这两种疾病都是t细胞介导的,对于自身免疫性胰腺炎,硫唑嘌呤被认为是维持治疗。其他t细胞介导的疾病如ici相关性肝炎的指南建议使用他克莫司。在病例2中加入他克莫司,病例3中加入硫唑嘌呤后,类固醇可以完全逐渐减少,没有发生新的胰腺炎发作。这些发现支持其他t细胞介导疾病的治疗方式是类固醇依赖性ici相关性胰腺炎值得选择的观点。

Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is an aggressive neuroendocrine cutaneous tumor with high metastatic potential. In rare cases, it can be associated with paraneoplastic syndromes (PNS), which result from an antitumor immunity against antigens produced by the tumor itself. Lambert-Eaton Myasthenic Syndrome (LEMS) is a neurological autoimmune PNS characterized by an impairment of the neuromuscular junction, leading to proximal muscle weakness and fatigability. Although the development of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) is a breakthrough in the management of many cancers, onset or worsen of immune diseases has been described. Thereby, in patients with previous neurological PNS like LEMS, the ICI therapy for cancer may aggravate neurological symptoms and lead to irreversible impairment. We report here 2 cases of patients with metastatic MCC associated with a LEMS at the diagnosis. Both successfully received ICI therapies (anti-PDL1 avelumab and anti-PD1 pembrolizumab) without worsening of LEMS and any major immune-related adverse effects. Their neurological condition improved and disappeared concomitantly with the efficacy of immunotherapy, and we did not observe relapse of both MCC and LEMS after treatment discontinuation. Finally, we performed a complete review of the literature, which confirmed that ICI treatment could be discussed for patients with paraneoplastic LEMS, and emphasized the need for multidisciplinary management.

默克尔细胞癌(MCC)是一种侵袭性神经内分泌皮肤肿瘤,具有高转移潜力。在极少数情况下,它可能与副肿瘤综合征(PNS)有关,这是由于对肿瘤本身产生的抗原的抗肿瘤免疫所致。Lambert-Eaton肌无力综合征(LEMS)是一种神经自身免疫性PNS,其特征是神经肌肉连接处受损,导致近端肌肉无力和疲劳。尽管免疫检查点抑制剂(ICI)的发展是许多癌症治疗的突破,但免疫疾病的发病或恶化已被描述。因此,在既往有LEMS等神经性PNS的患者中,癌症的ICI治疗可能加重神经系统症状并导致不可逆的损害。我们在此报告2例转移性MCC患者在诊断时伴有LEMS。两人都成功接受了ICI治疗(抗pdl1 avelumab和抗pd1 pembrolizumab),没有LEMS恶化和任何主要的免疫相关不良反应。随着免疫治疗的效果,他们的神经系统状况得到改善和消失,我们没有观察到停药后MCC和LEMS的复发。最后,我们对文献进行了完整的回顾,证实了可以讨论副肿瘤LEMS患者的ICI治疗,并强调了多学科管理的必要性。

Limited data have reported the evolution of antitumor immune responses under chemoimmunotherapy (chemo-IO) in patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer. In this concise study, we performed dynamic monitoring of antitumor CD4 + T helper 1 (Th1) response in peripheral blood from 12 patients receiving a first-line chemo-IO. Tumor-reactive CD4 + Th1 cells were assessed within blood lymphocytes using interferon-gamma enzyme-linked immunospot assay to detect telomerase (TERT)-specific T cells at baseline, 3 and 12 months after treatment. An induction of circulating anti-TERT CD4 + Th1 response were found in 6 of 12 patients at 3 months after chemo-IO. In contrast, 3 patients had a substantial decrease in their preexisting response and 3 remained nonimmune responders. Among patients with chemo-IO-induced immune response, half achieved an objective clinical response and had long-lasting circulating anti-TERT CD4 + Th1 cells detected for at least 1 year. In contrast, no objective response was documented in nonimmune responders and a link between the loss of anti-TERT CD4 + Th1 responses were observed in patients with progressive disease. This preliminary work supports a relationship between the efficacy of combinatorial chemo-IO and circulating anti-TERT CD4 + Th1 responses and highlights the interest to implement blood-based monitoring of tumor-reactive CD4 + T cells that could be additional help for patient management.

有限的数据报道了转移性非小细胞肺癌患者化疗免疫治疗(chemo-IO)下抗肿瘤免疫反应的演变。在这项简明的研究中,我们对12名接受一线化疗的患者外周血中的抗肿瘤CD4 + T辅助1 (Th1)反应进行了动态监测。在基线、治疗后3个月和12个月,使用干扰素- γ酶联免疫斑点法检测端粒酶(TERT)特异性T细胞,评估血液淋巴细胞中肿瘤反应性CD4 + Th1细胞。化疗后3个月,12例患者中有6例出现循环抗tert CD4 + Th1反应。相比之下,3名患者先前存在的反应明显减少,3名患者仍然没有免疫反应。在化疗诱导免疫反应的患者中,有一半达到了客观临床反应,并且在至少1年内检测到持久的循环抗tert CD4 + Th1细胞。相比之下,在非免疫应答者中没有客观的应答记录,并且在进行性疾病患者中观察到抗tert CD4 + Th1应答的丧失之间的联系。这项初步工作支持了组合化疗- io和循环抗tert CD4 + Th1反应之间的关系,并强调了实施基于血液的肿瘤反应性CD4 + T细胞监测的兴趣,这可能为患者管理提供额外的帮助。

Programmed death 1 (PD-1) inhibitors have emerged as the new standard of care for the second-line treatment of advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. There have been lots of research lately concerning the topic. A comprehensive assessment of the efficacy and safety profile between PD-1 inhibitors and chemotherapy is warranted. Hence, we carried out a systematic review and meta-analysis to illustrate this issue. Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Embase were searched systematically until May 1, 2022. We extracted data on efficacy and safety and calculated the pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and relative ratios (RRs) with 95% CI using randomized-effect or fixed-effect models. A subgroup analysis was applied to explore the factors modifying the response to PD-1 inhibitors. Ultimately, a total of 5 studies involving 1970 patients were included in our meta-analysis. PD-1 inhibitors group could attain greater overall survival (OS) benefit (HR = 0.73, 95% CI: 0.66-0.81, P < 0.001) and nearly favorable progression-free survival (HR = 0.89, 0.76-1.04, P = 0.13). Treatment-related adverse events (RR = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.64-0.91, P = 0.004) and level 3-5 treatment-related adverse events (RR = 0.40, 95% CI: 0.32-0.49, P < 0.001) were significantly diminished in PD-1 inhibitors groups. Among all modifying factors, programmed death ligand 1 combined positive score was positively associated with the patient's OS. The analysis suggests that PD-1 inhibitors exhibited better survival outcomes and safety profiles than standard-of-care chemotherapy. High levels of programmed death ligand 1 combined positive scores were associated with an enhanced response to PD-1 immunotherapies concerning OS.

程序性死亡1 (PD-1)抑制剂已成为晚期食管鳞状细胞癌二线治疗的新标准。最近有很多关于这个话题的研究。有必要对PD-1抑制剂和化疗之间的疗效和安全性进行全面评估。因此,我们进行了系统回顾和荟萃分析来说明这个问题。系统检索Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane Library和Embase,直到2022年5月1日。我们提取了疗效和安全性的数据,并使用随机效应或固定效应模型计算了95% CI的合并风险比(hr)和相对比(RRs)。采用亚组分析探讨影响PD-1抑制剂疗效的因素。最终,我们的荟萃分析共纳入了5项涉及1970例患者的研究。PD-1抑制剂组可获得更大的总生存期(OS)获益(HR = 0.73, 95% CI: 0.66-0.81, P < 0.001)和接近有利的无进展生存期(HR = 0.89, 0.76-1.04, P = 0.13)。PD-1抑制剂组治疗相关不良事件(RR = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.64-0.91, P = 0.004)和3-5级治疗相关不良事件(RR = 0.40, 95% CI: 0.32-0.49, P < 0.001)显著减少。在所有修饰因子中,程序性死亡配体1联合阳性评分与患者OS呈正相关。分析表明,PD-1抑制剂比标准治疗化疗具有更好的生存结果和安全性。高水平的程序性死亡配体1联合阳性评分与PD-1免疫疗法对OS的增强反应相关。

Only 30-40% of advanced melanoma patients respond effectively to immunotherapy in clinical practice, so it is necessary to accurately identify the response of patients to immunotherapy pre-clinically. Here, we develop KP-NET, a deep learning model that is sparse on KEGG pathways, and combine it with transfer- learning to accurately predict the response of advanced melanomas to immunotherapy using KEGG pathway-level information enriched from gene mutation and copy number variation data. The KP-NET demonstrates best performance with AUROC of 0.886 on testing set and 0.803 on an unseen evaluation set when predicting responders (CR/PR/SD with PFS ≥6 mo) versus non-responders (PD/SD with PFS <6 mo) in anti-CTLA-4 treated melanoma patients. The model also achieves an AUROC of 0.917 and 0.833 in predicting CR/PR versus PD, respectively. Meanwhile, the AUROC is 0.913 when predicting responders versus non-responders in anti-PD-1/PD-L1 melanomas. Moreover, the KP-NET reveals some genes and pathways associated with response to anti-CTLA-4 treatment, such as genes PIK3CA, AOX1 and CBLB, and ErbB signaling pathway, T cell receptor signaling pathway, et al. In conclusion, the KP-NET can accurately predict the response of melanomas to immunotherapy and screen related biomarkers pre-clinically, which can contribute to precision medicine of melanoma.
