GP100 expression is variable in intensity in melanoma.
Drugs or cellular products that bind to gp100 are being investigated for treatment of cutaneous melanoma. The relative specificity of gp100 expression in melanocytes makes it an attractive target to harness for therapeutic intent. For example, Tebentafusp, a bispecific gp100 peptide-HLA-directed CD3 T cell engager, has generated significant enthusiasm in recent years due to its success in improving outcomes for uveal melanoma and is being studied in cutaneous melanoma. However, the extent and intensity of gp100 expression in advanced cutaneous melanoma has not been well studied. Here, we interrogated a large cohort of primary and metastatic melanomas for gp100 expression by immunohistochemistry. Expression in metastatic samples was globally higher and almost uniformly positive, however the degree of intensity was variable. Using a quantitative immunofluorescence method, we confirmed the variability in expression. As gp100-binding drugs are assessed in clinical trials, the association between activity of the drugs and the level of gp100 expression should be studied in order to potentially improve patient selection.
期刊介绍:
Cancer Immunology, Immunotherapy has the basic aim of keeping readers informed of the latest research results in the fields of oncology and immunology. As knowledge expands, the scope of the journal has broadened to include more of the progress being made in the areas of biology concerned with biological response modifiers. This helps keep readers up to date on the latest advances in our understanding of tumor-host interactions.
The journal publishes short editorials including "position papers," general reviews, original articles, and short communications, providing a forum for the most current experimental and clinical advances in tumor immunology.
