• Chromosomal instability shapes the tumor microenvironment of oesophageal adenocarcinoma via a cGAS–chemokine–myeloid axis

  This study employed whole-genome sequencing (WGS) to investigate genomic alterations in oesophagogastric adenocarcinoma, with a focus on mechanisms of chromosomal instability. Twelve tumour samples were analysed, including specimens obtained prior to neoadjuvant chemotherapy and at surgical resection. WGS was used to identify structural variants, quantify tumour mutational burden, and detect potential driver mutations across samples. The study aimed to correlate genomic measures of chromosomal instability with clinicopathological features to improve understanding of tumour biology.

  Whole exome and RNA sequencing for samples from CIAO (Checkpoint Inhibitors Assessment in Oropharynx cancer) (NCT03144778) clinical trial testing neoadjuvant anti-PD-L1 durvalumab with or without the anti-CTLA-4 tremelimumab in oropharynx cancer

• Identifying mutations in patient-derived melanoma DCC lines

  To identify mutations that cause resistance, we analyzed two patient-derived cell lines: Mel-DCC-11 (the parental line, sensitive to the BRAF inhibitor) and Mel-DCC-11-R (resistant to the BRAF inhibitor). We employed targeted-panel sequencing to examine the coding sequences of 410 cancer-associated target genes.

• Immune heterogeneity in small cell lung cancer and vulnerability to immune checkpoint blockade

  Following the pivotal Phase III IMpower133 study, atezolizumab (anti–PD-L1), combined with carboplatin and etoposide (CE), was the first immune checkpoint inhibitor approved for first-line treatment of extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) and is now a standard of care. A clearer understanding of therapeutically relevant SCLC subsets is needed to improve outcomes and to identify rational combination strategies. Transcriptomic analyses and nonnegative matrix factorization were conducted on 271 pre-treatment patient tumor samples from IMpower133 and four subsets with general concordance to previously reported SCLC subtypes were identified. Deeper investigation into the immune heterogeneity relevant to clinical outcomes uncover two subsets with differing neuroendocrine (NE) versus non-neuroendocrine (non-NE) phenotypes that demonstrated hallmarks of immune cell infiltration. The balance of tumor-associated macrophage (TAM) to T-effector signals distinguished these inflamed subsets. Tumors with low TAM but high T-effector signals had a NE phenotype and demonstrated longer overall survival with PD-L1 blockade and CE versus CE alone than did tumors with high TAM and high T-effector signal, which had a non-NE phenotype. The delineation of SCLC immune heterogeneity offers a clinically relevant approach to discriminate SCLC patients likely to benefit most from immunotherapeutic approaches and highlights the complex mechanisms underlying response and resistance to immune checkpoint blockade.

• Dynamics of checkpoint receptors in γδ T cell subsets are associated with clinical responses during anti-PD-1 immunotherapies

  Gamma delta (γδ) T cells are innate-like lymphocytes with potent anti-tumor properties. Herein, we show that immune checkpoint receptors (ICRs) display differential expression and regulation by the JAK-STAT pathway in Vδ1 and Vδ2 cells and identify constitutive (e.g. TIGIT, PD-1) and inducible (e.g. TIM-3, LAG-3, CTLA-4) ICRs. In melanoma, all γδ T cell subsets downregulated AP-1 transcription factors, but Vδ1 cells specifically expressed high levels of ICR, TOX and inhibitory killer Ig-like receptor (KIR) transcripts, reminiscent of exhaustion. However, patient-derived cells were functionally competent, although induction of LAG-3 and CTLA-4 was impaired. During anti-PD-1 monotherapy, Vδ1 cells specifically bound high levels of therapeutic antibody but only in patients who responded to treatment, revealing a potential new prognostic marker for evaluating the efficacy of IC blockade (ICB) therapy. Finally, expression of KIR genes in Vδ1 cells was downregulated in response to successful ICB therapy. Collectively, our data indicate an intricate relationship between ICRs and γδ T cells and reveal novel approaches by which these cells can be harnessed in order to discern or improve cancer immunotherapy.
