• CONNECTS Master Protocol for Clinical Trials targeting Macro- and Micro-Immuno-Thrombosis, Vascular Hyperinflammation, and Hypercoagulability and Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System (RAAS) in Hospitalized Patients with COVID-19 (ACTIV-4 Host Tissue)

  ACTIV 4 Host Tissue is a shared-placebo clinical trial platform evaluating therapies targeting the host response to COVID-19 in hospitalized patients. The overarching goal of the platform was to find effective strategies for inpatient management of patients with COVID-19. Therapeutic goals for patients hospitalized for COVID-19 include hastening recovery and preventing progression to critical illness, multiorgan failure, or death. Our objective is to determine whether modulating the host tissue response improves clinical outcomes among patients with COVID-19. Three trials were implemented to investigate three agents: TXA-127, TRV-027, and Fostamatinib. These agents all impact the host tissue response in COVID-19 via a number of unique mechanisms, including potential beneficial effects on the RAAS system and formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). Each trial evaluated the efficacy of these agents' ability to impact the host tissue response and improve outcomes in patients hospitalized with COVID-19. We found no evidence that any of the three agents significantly improved clinical outcomes as measured by the primary outcome, oxygen free days through day 28.

• Epigenetic Analysis of Malnutrition

  The PROVIDE study (Dhaka, Bangladesh) is a randomized clinical trial platform which evaluated the efficacy of delayed-dose oral rotavirus vaccine as well as the benefit of an injectable polio vaccine replacing one dose of oral polio vaccine. This rigorous infrastructure supported the additional examination of hypotheses of vaccine underperformance. Primary and secondary efficacy and immunogenicity measures for rotavirus and polio vaccines were measured, as well as the impact of maternal and childhood malnutrition, environmental enteropathy, and additional exploratory variables. This study has been conducted to test the role of epigenetics in malnutrition, specifically the genome-wide role of histone modifications, which are known to provide a precise signature of metabolic state and immune system function.

• Translational analyses from a phase II study of pembrolizumab and epigenetic modification with azacitidine in platinum-resistant epithelial ovarian cancer

  Epigenetic modulators may sensitize platinum-resistant ovarian cancer (PROC) to immune checkpoint inhibition by reprogramming the tumor microenvironment. We report clinical and translational findings from a phase II non-randomized study of pembrolizumab and oral azacytidine in 34 women with PROC (NCT02900560). The effect of combined epigenetic and immunotherapy was evaluated by transcriptomic analyses of serially biopsied tumors. Differential gene expression analyses revealed an upregulation of inflammatory and cytolytic genes and co-inhibitory checkpoints 6 weeks on-therapy. Upregulation of interferon signaling, antigen presentation and immune cell adhesion and migration gene sets was prominent on-therapy, together with an increased density of CD8+ T -cells. Patients with a CA-125 and/or clinical response showed an enrichment of adaptive and conserved immune response gene sets on-therapy.

• Tocilizumab treatment leads to early resolution of myeloid dysfunction and lymphopenia in patients hospitalized with COVID-19

  Tocilizumab, an anti-interleukin-6 receptor inhibitor, is recommended in global treatment guidelines for patients hospitalized with severe COVID-19. Using proteomic and transcriptomic analysis, we characterized the immune profile and identified cellular and molecular pathways directly modified by tocilizumab in peripheral blood samples collected from patients enrolled in the COVACTA study, a phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, to assess the efficacy and safety of tocilizumab in hospitalized patients with severe COVID-19 pneumonia. We identified factors predicting disease severity and clinical outcomes, including markers of inflammation, lymphopenia, myeloid dysfunction, and organ injury. Proteomic analysis confirmed a pharmacodynamic effect for tocilizumab. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that tocilizumab treatment leads to faster resolution of lymphopenia and myeloid dysfunction associated with severe COVID-19 thus supporting an underlying anti-inflammatory mechanism of action for the beneficial effects of tocilizumab in patients hospitalized with COVID-19.

• human CMV-specific CD8+ T cells

  In this study we established a comprehensive workflow to collect multi-omics single-cell data using a commercially available micro-well based platform. This included whole transcriptome, cell surface markers (targeted sequencing-based cell surface proteomics), T cell specificities, adaptive immune receptor repertoire (AIRR) profiles and sample multiplexing. With this technique we identified novel paired T cell receptor sequences for three prominent human CMV epitopes. In addition, we review the ability of dCODE dextramers to detect antigenspecific T cells at low frequencies by estimating sensitivities and specificities when used as reagents for single-cell multi-omics.

• Regulatory and Effector T cells in Oral Immunotherapy for Food Allergy

  This study consisted of a clinical trial for peanut oral immunotherapy (OIT) and a follow-up project (see below). Patients were included from 2013-2015, and samples from the last timepoints were collected in 2017. The study focused on peanut-specific CD4+ T cell responses before, during, and after OIT with peanut protein. We analyzed T cell gene expression, cytokine production, and T cell receptor β (TCRβ) and TCRα clonotypes, both in bulk T cell populations and single cells, and sought to correlate these data with differences in clinical sensitivity between peanut-allergic patients before OIT, and with differences in clinical outcome after OIT. The goal was to better understand the role of peanut-specific effector and regulatory T cells in peanut allergy and tolerance, which may inform more effective therapies (e.g., OIT combined with biologicals, probiotics, or adjuvants) in the future. Tolerance Following Peanut Oral Immunotherapy (PNOIT2, NCT01750879): The unifying objective of this project is to determine whether peanut oral immunotherapy (PNOIT)-induced clinical tolerance in the context of food allergy is significantly associated with the expansion of a specific regulatory T cell subset (CD45RA-, CD25++, FoxP3+ +) that is thought to be inducible in the gut-associated lymphoid compartment and associated with immunological tolerance. The hypothesis of the study is that the induction of Treg cells will be associated with clinical tolerance. The investigators will measure the change from baseline of induced Treg cells as a frequency of total CD4+ T cells during active treatment and compare that between participants who achieve significant clinical tolerance and those who do not. High Threshold Peanut Challenge Study (PAID-UP, NCT02698033): This protocol was designed to better characterize a sub-population of peanut-sensitized individuals who may be non-allergic, despite significant sensitization, or who may be allergic, but at high threshold doses. By specifically targeting participants who met the initial screening criteria of an earlier study, NCT01750879, but failed to react during the pre-treatment 443 mg challenge to peanut, the investigators anticipate that they will identify individuals who have become spontaneously tolerant, despite persistent sensitization. The investigators might also find that clinical sensitivity persists but only with higher thresholds, or that sensitivity has increased (or is variable) since the previous allergen exposure. By repeating food challenges through to a full serving dose (7.4 gram), the investigators will distinguish participants who react only at higher doses from those who were not truly peanut-allergic, address whether their sensitivity has changed, and have the opportunity to further investigate their immune response to peanut allergen. Methods: Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were isolated from patient blood samples, and stimulated with peanut protein. Peanut-activated CD4+ T cells were sorted based on the activation marker CD154. For a more recent study, the activation marker CD137 was used as well. Total RNA from peanut-activated CD154+ and resting CD154- CD69- T cells was used for cDNA synthesis and amplification (SMARTer ultra low input RNA kit for sequencing - v3; Clontech Laboratories). Libraries were prepared and sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq platform, at a read depth of approximately 30 million reads per sample. Genomic DNA from CD154+ and CD154- CD69- T cells was used to amplify and sequence the TCRβ CDR3 regions (immunoSEQ assay; Adaptive Biotechnologies). The immunoSEQ approach generates an 87 base-pair fragment capable of identifying the VDJ region spanning each unique CDR3. Amplicons were sequenced using the Illumina NextSeq platform. Using a baseline developed from a suite of synthetic templates, primer concentrations and computational corrections were used to correct for the primer bias common to multiplex PCR reactions. Raw sequence data were filtered on the basis of TCRβ V, D, and J gene definitions provided by the IMGT database (www.imgt.org) and binned using a modified nearest-neighbor algorithm to merge closely related sequences and remove both PCR and sequencing errors. For single-cell analysis, we aimed to recover TCR variable sequences from high-throughput single-cell libraries generated by popular platforms such as SeqWell and DropSeq. We paired TCR information with T cell single-cell RNA sequencing results from patients undergoing peanut OIT to show clonal expansion-related T cell phenotypes.

• Metformin for Oral Cancer Prevention

  The M4OC-PREVENT clinical trial addressed whether metformin has utility in the prevention of oral cancer. It is a phase IIa clinical trial of metformin ER 2,000 mg per day given for 12-14 weeks to individuals with oral premalignant lesions, either oral leukoplakia or erythroplakia (which are precursors to oral cancer). The goal was to determine if metformin decreases the size of oral leukoplakia (clinical response). Additionally, effects on biomarkers of cancer risk and metformin effect were ascertained. The clinical trial was performed at the University of California San Diego Moores Cancer Center, the University of Minnesota, and the British Columbia Cancer Agency, with monitoring and oversight provided by the University of Arizona.

• Oral Microbiome in Esophageal Adenocarcinoma

  The purpose of our study was to assess the influence of oral microbiota on the development of esophageal cancer. Our preliminary case-control studies reported a global alteration of foregut microbiome in esophageal adenocarcinoma with the strongest changes found in the oral microbiome. We hypothesise that commensal oral bacteria are capable of activating or degrading carcinogens in cigarette smoke and therefore may contribute to esophageal carcinogenesis. We conducted a prospective study nested in two large US cohorts, to determine whether oral microbiota are associated with subsequent esophageal adenocarcinoma.

• The Oral Mycobiome and Risk of Pancreatic Cancer

  The purpose of our study was to assess the influence of oral microbiota on the development of pancreatic cancer. Our preliminary case-control studies showed that oral carriage of a periodontal pathogen is related to increased risk for pancreatic cancer. We hypothesize that the oral bacteria and fungi are associated with risk of pancreatic cancer. We conducted a prospective study nested in two large well-established U.S. cohorts to determine whether the oral bacterial and fungal microbiome is associated with subsequent risk of pancreatic cancer.
