• Non-small cell lung cancer molecular subtypes and vulnerability to immunotherapy treatment combinations

  The phase 3 IMpower150 trial in treatment-naïve patients with metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) demonstrated significantly longer progression-free (PFS) and overall survival (OS) with first-line atezolizumab (anti-PD-L1)-bevacizumab (anti-VEGF)-carboplatin-paclitaxel (ABCP) than with bevacizumab-carboplatin-paclitaxel (BCP). We characterised four molecular NSCLC subtypes identified by unsupervised clustering of transcriptomes of 564 pre-treatment primary tumour samples from IMpower150 using non-negative matrix factorization (NMF1-4). Each subtype had distinct tumour PD-L1 expression levels, epithelial characteristics, immune composition, and treatment outcomes. Both NMF2 (enriched in tumour proliferation signal, macrophages, and monocytes) and NMF4 (enriched in B-cells and T cells) had elevated tumour PD-L1 expression. Of these two, only NMF4 demonstrated PFS and OS benefits with ABCP versus either BCP or atezolizumab-carboplatin-paclitaxel (ACP). Patients with NMF1 (enriched in basal and squamous-like cells) had improved outcomes on ABCP compared with ACP or BCP; those with NMF3 (enriched in adenocarcinoma signatures) showed similar outcomes among treatments. These insights could help inform individualised first-line treatment for metastatic NSCLC.

• Liquid biopsy for molecular characterization of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and early assessment of minimal residual disease

  Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) allows genotyping and minimal residual disease (MRD) detection in lymphomas. Using a NGS approach (Euroclonality-NDC), we evaluated clinical and prognostic value of ctDNA in a series of R-CHOP-treated DLBCL patients at baseline (n=68) and after 2-cycles (n=59), monitored by metabolic imaging (PET/CT). A molecular marker was identified in 61/68 (90%) ctDNA samples at diagnosis. Pre-treatment high ctDNA levels significantly correlated with elevated LDH, advanced stage, high risk IPI and a trend to shorter 2-year PFS. Valuable NGS data after 2-cycles of treatment were obtained in 44 cases, and 38 achieved major molecular response (MMR; 2.5-log drop in ctDNA). PFS curves displayed statistically significant differences among those achieving MMR vs. those not achieving MMR (2yr PFS of 76% vs. 0%, p<0.001). Similarly, more than 66% reduction in SUVmax by PET/CT identified two subgroups with different prognosis (2yr PFS of 83% vs. 38%; p<0.001). Combining both approaches MMR and SUVmax reduction, a better stratification was observed (2yr PFS of 84% vs. 17% vs. 0%, p<0.001). Euroclonality-NDC panel allows the detection of a molecular marker in the ctDNA in 90% of DLBCL. ctDNA reduction at 2 cycles and its combination with interim PET results improves patient prognosis stratification.

• Patient-Derived Follicular Lymphoma Spheroids recapitulate lymph node signaling and immune profile, uncovering galectin-9 as a novel immunotherapeutic target

  RNA-seq data from CD20+ sorted cells obtained from peripheral blood and lymph node Follicular Lymphoma patients. These samples were unstimulated after thawing and additionally, peripheral blood samples were stimulated during 7 days in culture as described in Dobaño-López C et. al.)

• Neversmoker lung adenocarcinoma

  Non-small cell lung cancer whole genome sequencing We performed whole genome sequencing of Korean never-smoker lung adenocarcinoma patients to discover novel pathway except EGFR and ALK patients. We identified estrogen signaling as a novel enriched signaling. Lastly we validated the elevated estrogen signaling through immunohistochemistry experiment in some patients which increased signaling.

• Genomic profiles associated with response to immunotherapy in adolescent and young adult patients with melanoma

  The patterns of immune infiltration and treatment responses are unclear due to genomic and clinicopathological differences in AYA patients compared to those of older patients, and these patterns and differences may contribute to the lack of response to immunotherapy. This study fills the research gaps in understanding the molecular profiles of AYA melanoma and the key immunosuppressive signalling pathways contributing to tumour growth and resistance to immunotherapy

• Whole Exome Sequencing

  The objective of this study was to better understand the molecular changes occurring in tumors during development of ICB (immune checkpoint blockade) resistance. Here, we performed Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) on biopsies from a cohort of melanoma patients after progression on anti-CTLA4 or anti-PD1 monotherapy and matched normal samples. Genetic alterations of antigen presentation and interferon gamma signaling pathways were observed in approximately 25% of ICB resistant cases.

• PRADO trial - Personalized response-directed surgery and adjuvant therapy after neoadjuvant ipilimumab plus nivolumab in stage III melanoma

  The PRADO trial tested a personalized response-directed treatment approach based on the pathologic response after neoadjuvant ipilimumab plus nivolumab in stage III melanoma patients. In patients achieving a major pathologic response, in their index lymph node (the largest lymph node metastasis at baseline), therapeutic lymph node dissection (TLND) and adjuvant therapy were omitted. Patients with partial response underwent TLND only, whereas patients with pathologic non-response underwent TLND and adjuvant systemic therapy ± synchronous radiotherapy.

• A neoadjuvant, phase II trial demonstrates efficacy and tolerability of Talimogene laherparepvec in cutaneous basal cell carcinoma (NeoBCC trial)

  We present a single arm, phase II neoadjuvant trial with the oncolytic virus Talimogene laherparepvec (T-VEC) in 18 patients with difficult-to-resect basal cell carcinomas. Six cycles of T-VEC were applied intralesionally. The primary endpoint of the study, defined as the proportion of the patients, who after six cycles of T-VEC (13 weeks) at the time point of surgery, become resectable with primary wound closure without the need for plastic reconstructive surgery like skin flaps or skin grafts, was achieved (9/18 patients; 50.0%). Secondary endpoints also included the relapse free survival rate (100%), overall survival (100%) and biological read outs in the tumor samples. T-VEC led to a significant increase of cytotoxic T cells, B cells and myeloid cells, and a decrease of Tregs within the tumor microenvironment. We observed a potent induction of antitumoral and antiviral T cell clones, as well as a strong humoral immune response. The objective response rate was 55.6% and the complete pathological response rate was 33.3%. Only mild adverse events occurred. Together, neoadjuvant T-VEC represents a viable treatment option for patients with difficult-to-resect BCCs (EudraCT Number 2018-002165-19).
