Multiple myeloma is a bone marrow (BM) plasma cell malignancy preceded by precursor conditions. BM biopsies are conducted infrequently and can yield inconclusive results due to technical limitations. Profiling circulating tumor cells (CTCs) may enable noninvasive routine clinical assessments but remains challenging. Here, to address this, we describe a single-cell sequencing workflow to interrogate few tumor cells (SWIFT-seq), and employ single-cell RNA sequencing and B cell receptor sequencing on paired BM and CTCs from 101 patients and healthy donors. We establish a sequencing-based CTC enumeration strategy and develop a CTC classifier to infer cytogenetic abnormalities. Additionally, we leverage expression profiling to measure tumor proliferative index in CTCs, and demonstrate that clonal dynamics can be captured in CTCs. Last, we propose a circulatory dynamics model whereby tumor burden, proliferation, cytogenetics and a circulatory capacity signature influence CTC burden. Overall, SWIFT-seq may advance blood-based myeloma diagnostics, surveillance and prognostication, and reveal biological mechanisms of tumor dissemination. Lightbody et al. present SWIFT-seq, a single-cell RNA sequencing approach to profile circulating tumor cells from patients with multiple myeloma and its precursor conditions and leverage it to derive clinical and biological insights into the disease.

Although the first generation of cancer immunotherapeutics produced unprecedented improvements in clinical outcomes for individuals with cancer, novel strategies to increase treatment specificity, delivery efficiency and pharmacokinetics are still needed. In this Review, we describe the potential advantages and current limitations of nanomaterials for cancer immunotherapy and highlight rational uses of nanosystems to generate potent and durable antitumor immune responses. We close with a review of the current state of clinical development of nanomedicine for cancer immunotherapy. Kim and colleagues provide an overview of the current state of the art of nanomaterials and their application in immuno-oncology, discussing preclinical development and the clinical landscape.

In metastatic, immunologically ‘cold’ non-small cell lung cancer, the combination of radiation therapy and immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI) demonstrates heightened anti-tumor immune responses at non-irradiated sites and improved clinical responses compared with ICI alone. Radio-immunotherapy holds promise for patients with ICI-refractory lung cancer.

The abscopal effects of radiation may sensitize immunologically cold tumors to immune checkpoint inhibition. We investigated the immunostimulatory effects of radiotherapy leveraging multiomic analyses of serial tissue and blood biospecimens (n = 293) from a phase 2 clinical trial of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) followed by pembrolizumab in metastatic non-small cell lung cancer ( NCT02492568 ). Participants with immunologically cold tumors (low tumor mutation burden, null programmed death ligand 1 expression or Wnt pathway mutations) had significantly longer progression-free survival in the SBRT arm. Induction of interferon-γ, interferon-α and antigen processing and presentation gene sets was significantly enriched after SBRT in nonirradiated tumor sites. Significant on-therapy expansions of new and pre-existing T cell clones in both the tumor (abscopal) and the blood (systemic) compartments were noted alongside clonal neoantigen-reactive autologous T cell responses in participants with long-term survival after radioimmunotherapy. These findings support the systemic immunomodulatory and antitumor effects of radioimmunotherapy and may open a therapeutic window of opportunity to overcome immunotherapy resistance. Huang et al. analyzed serial samples from participants with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer treated with radiotherapy followed by immunotherapy and report improved clinical outcomes and enhanced antitumor responses in immunologically cold tumors.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-engineered lymphocytes treat B cell malignancies; however, limited persistence can restrain the full therapeutic potential of this approach. FAS ligand (FAS-L)/FAS interactions govern lymphocyte homeostasis. Knowledge of which cells express FAS-L in patients with cancer and whether these sources compromise CAR persistence remains incomplete. Here, we constructed a single-cell atlas of diverse cancers to identify cellular subsets expressing FASLG, the gene encoding FAS-L. We discovered that FASLG expression is limited primarily to endogenous T cells, natural killer (NK) cells and CAR-T cells, while tumor and stromal cell expression is minimal. To establish whether CAR-T and CAR-NK cell survival is FAS-L regulated, we performed competitive fitness assays using FAS-dominant negative receptor (ΔFAS)-modified lymphocytes. Following transfer, ΔFAS-expressing CAR-T/CAR-NK cells became enriched, a phenomenon that mechanistically was reverted through FASLG knockout. By contrast, FASLG was dispensable for CAR-mediated tumor killing. In multiple models in female mice, ΔFAS coexpression enhanced antitumor efficacy. Together, these findings reveal that CAR-engineered lymphocyte persistence is governed by a FAS-L/FAS autoregulatory circuit. Klebanoff and colleagues report that survival and persistence of CAR-T and CAR-NK cells are regulated by a FAS ligand–FAS autoregulatory circuit, showing that disabling FAS signaling enhances their antitumor efficacy in preclinical models.
嵌合抗原受体修饰淋巴细胞治疗B细胞恶性肿瘤然而,有限的持久性可能会限制这种方法的全部治疗潜力。FAS配体(FAS- l)/FAS相互作用控制淋巴细胞稳态。关于癌症患者中哪些细胞表达FAS-L以及这些来源是否会损害CAR的持久性的知识仍然不完整。在这里,我们构建了不同癌症的单细胞图谱,以鉴定表达FASLG(编码FAS-L的基因)的细胞亚群。我们发现FASLG的表达主要局限于内源性T细胞、自然杀伤(NK)细胞和CAR-T细胞,而肿瘤和基质细胞的表达则很少。为了确定CAR-T和CAR-NK细胞的存活是否受到FAS-L的调节,我们使用fas -显性阴性受体(ΔFAS)修饰的淋巴细胞进行了竞争适应度测定。转移后,ΔFAS-expressing CAR-T/CAR-NK细胞变得富集,这一现象通过敲除FASLG在机制上得到恢复。相比之下,FASLG对于car介导的肿瘤杀伤是必不可少的。在多种雌性小鼠模型中,ΔFAS共表达增强了抗肿瘤效果。总之,这些发现揭示了car工程淋巴细胞的持久性是由FAS- l /FAS自动调节回路控制的。
