Immunosuppressive Tumor Microenvironment

Nivolumab plus ipilimumab combined therapy is one of the promising drugs that enhance the anti- immune response in patients with advanced melanoma. Therefore, to increase its response rate is of great interest to dermatologists. Recent reports suggested that, since CD8+ T cells after the administration of ICIs increase the RANKL expression to induce an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment in melanoma, denosumab might enhance the anti-tumor effects of immune checkpoint inhibitors, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab. In this report, we present a case of multiple metastatic melanoma with nivolumab, ipilimumab plus denosumab combined therapy.

The Body

Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors have changed the therapeutic milieu for patients with metastatic melanoma. However, their use may promote autoimmunity in virtually any organ in the body due to the blockade of intrinsic immune down regulators such as cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen- 4 (CTLA-4), programmed cell death 1 (PD1) or its ligand (PDL1). Immune mediated adverse neurological events are rare with these agents, however, and are seen in < 1% of treated patients. We report a patient with immune checkpoint inhibitor associated autoimmune encephalitis, with complete clinical recovery after treatment.Case Report: A 49-year-old female with metastatic melanoma currently on nivolumab therapy but recently on ipilimumab/nivolumab combined therapy presented with a new headache. She also reported associated confusion, loss of balance, personality changes and language difficulty. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain did not reveal any evidence of metastasis, infarct, meningitis, or encephalitis. Lumbar puncture revealed an elevated protein level and pleocytosis, with a normal glucose level. She was started on empiric glucocorticoid therapy with a presumptive diagnosis of immune checkpoint inhibitor associated autoimmune encephalitis. She improved considerably by day 3 of treatment with complete resolution of neurological symptoms by day 5.Conclusion: Immune checkpoint inhibitors are increasingly important in cancer immunotherapy as they can cause sustained remissions in patients with metastatic melanoma and other malignancies. Because these drugs block immune-regulatory targets, they can lead to enhanced activation of immune system resulting in immune-related adverse events. Autoimmune encephalitis is a rare immune-related adverse event associated with immune checkpoint inhibitors. The incidence of autoimmune encephalitis is higher with combination or sequential CTLA-4 (ipilimumab) and PD1(nivolumab) inhibitor therapy than with monotherapy. With more widespread use of immunotherapy, it is important for clinicians to be aware of this rare and reversible cause of encephalitis. Early recognition and prompt initiation of immunosuppressive therapy with glucocorticoids is essential to enhance neurological recovery.

PurposeAnti-programmed cell death protein 1 (PD1)±anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated protein 4 (CTLA4) immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are standard therapeutic options for metastatic melanoma. We assessed whether biologic subtype according to primary tumor type or genomic subtype can function as predictive biomarkers for anti-PD1±anti-CTLA4 ICI in patients with advanced melanoma.MethodsWe performed a single-center retrospective cohort analysis of patients who received anti-PD1±anti-CTLA4 ICI for advanced melanoma between 2012 and 2019. Primary tumor type, BRAF and NRAS mutation status, and other covariates were abstracted from chart review. Log-rank tests and multivariable Cox regression models were used to assess differences in clinical progression-free (cPFS) and overall survival (OS).ResultsWe identified 230 patients who received 249 lines of anti-PD1±anti-CTLA4 ICI for unresectable or metastatic disease. Of these patients, 74% were cutaneous, 11% mucosal, 8% unknown primary and 7% acral. BRAF and NRAS mutations were identified in 35% and 28% of patients, respectively. In multivariable analyses of the entire cohort, acral or mucosal primary tumor type, >3 metastatic sites, elevated LDH were predictive of shorter cPFS and OS. Combination ICI therapy was associated with longer cPFS (HR 0.57, 95% CI 0.38 to 0.86, p=0.007) and OS (HR 0.42, 95% CI 0.28 to 0.65, p<0.001). Combination ICI was significantly associated with longer OS in unknown primary and mucosal melanoma. There was a non-significant trend toward longer OS with anti-PD1+anti-CTLA4 in cutaneous melanoma, but not in acral melanoma. In multivariable analyses, combination ICI was associated with longer OS in NRAS (HR 0.24, 95% CI 0.10 to 0.62, p=0.003, n=69) and BRAF V600E/K (HR 0.47, 95% CI 0.24 to 0.90, p=0.024, n=86) mutant melanoma but not BRAF/NRAS wild-type (n=94) melanoma.ConclusionsIn our cohort, primary melanoma tumor type and genomic subtype were independent predictive markers of cPFS and OS for patients with metastatic melanoma receiving anti-PD1 ICI. Primary tumor type and genomic subtype—including NRAS—should be further evaluated in prospective clinical trials to determine their value as predictive markers. Biologic subtypes may facilitate clinical decision-making when recommending combination ICI treatment (anti-PD1±anti-CTLA4) versus anti-PD1 alone for patients with metastatic melanoma.

Novel Therapeutic Strategies

The overall increasing incidence of melanoma will very probably be the trend over the next two decades. This data stresses the need for new therapeutic resources, other than classic chemotherapy. Nevertheless, the treatment of advanced melanoma has been changed in the last decade due to novel therapeutic strategies, including immunotherapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors targeting cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4) and programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1). Inhibition of these targets enhances immune host response against cancer and results in durable objective responses, establishing immunotherapy as standard treatment for BRAF wild-type melanoma patients in advanced stages (III – unresectable and IV – metastases at distant sites). Anti-CTLA-4, ipilimumab, was the first–in-class immune checkpoint inhibitor to show improvement in overall survival in advanced melanoma. Latter, anti-PD-1 agents, nivolumab and pembrolizumab, have improved tumour response and tolerability in comparison with ipilimumab. Differences in outcome are expected considering the distinct target of checkpoint inhibition pathways. In this setting, it is of utmost importance the assessment of efficacy by combined therapy and the identification of biomarkers capable of predicting response to anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1. After a previous review on cancer biology and mechanisms of action of immune checkpoint inhibitors we will focus on the main data on the immune checkpoint inhibitors for melanoma currently available in daily practice.

The use of immune checkpoint inhibitors in patients with metastatic melanoma generates clinical benefit, including improved survival. Yet disease resistance and immune-related adverse events persist as unmet needs. Sargramostim, a yeast-derived recombinant human GM-CSF, has shown clinical activity against diverse solid tumors, including metastatic melanoma. Here we review the use of sargramostim for treatment of advanced melanoma. Potential sargramostim applications in melanoma draw on the unique ability of GM-CSF to link innate and adaptive immune responses. We review preclinical and translational data describing the mechanism of action of sargramostim and synergy with immune checkpoint inhibitors to enhance efficacy and reduce treatment-related toxicity.

Inhibitory Pathways

The development of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has drastically altered the landscape of cancer treatment. Since approval of the first ICI for the treatment of advanced melanoma in 2011, several therapeutic agents have been Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved for multiple cancers, and hundreds of clinical trials are currently ongoing. These antibodies disrupt T-cell inhibitory pathways established by tumor cells and thus re-activate the host’s antitumor immune response. While successful in many cancers, several types remain relatively refractory to treatment or patients develop early recurrence. Hence, there is a great need to further elucidate mechanisms of resistant disease and determine novel, effective, and tolerable combination therapies to enhance efficacy of ICIs.

Cancer Immunoediting

The knowledge of the pathophysiology of tumour progression is crucial to understand the therapeutic targets in order to control the disease. The mechanisms used by the immune system to affect cancer development and progression has been a challenging question in immunology. It is now postulated that immunology plays a dual role in this process: it protects against tumour growth, destroying “aberrant” tumour cells, but may also promote tumour progression by selecting tumour cells that are able to escape the immune response and survive in an immunocompetent host. These findings gave rise to the concept of “cancer immunoediting”, which explains the influence of the immune system on tumour progression. Several observations like immunosuppression as a risk factor for melanoma, the possibility of partial or complete regression of primary tumour and development of vitiligo, have suggested that melanoma is an immunogenic tumour but a successful tumour evolution can occur in the light of the “immunoediting” concept. Immune checkpoints, cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen (CTLA)-4 and programmed cell death (PD-1), were recognized to have important roles in regulating T cell responses during tumour development and were proven to be effective targets in treating advanced melanoma. This article will briefly review the process of tumour evolution and its interaction with the immune system as well as the mechanism of action of the immune checkpoint inhibitors to understand better the new targeted immunotherapies for advanced melanoma, that will be further discussed.

The Difference

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized metastatic melanoma treatment, but our knowledge of ICI activity across age groups is insufficient. Patients in different age groups with advanced melanoma were selected based on the ICI approval time in this study. Patients with melanoma were identified in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Result (SEER) database program 2004–2016. The results showed that 4,040 patients had advanced melanoma before the advent of ICI (referred to as the “non-ICI era”), whereas there were 6,188 cases after ICI approval (referred to as the “ICI era”). In all age groups, the cases were dominated by men. The differences between the first (20–59 years) and second (60–74 years) age groups in both eras were significant in terms of surgery performance and holding of insurance policies (p = 0.05). The first and second groups (20–59 and 60–70 years old, respectively) showed no difference in survival (median = 8 months) during the non-ICI era, but the difference was evident in the first, second, and third age groups in the ICI era, with the younger group (20–59 years) having significantly better survival (median = 18, 14, and 10 months, respectively, p = 0.0001). Multivariate analysis of the first group (the youngest) in the ICI era revealed that surgery was significantly associated with an increase in survival among patients compared with those who did not undergo surgery (p &lt; 0.0001). Furthermore, having an insurance policy among all age groups in the ICI era was associated with favorable survival in the first (20–59 years) and second (60–74 years) age groups (p = 0.0001), while there were no survival differences in the older ICI group (&gt;74 years). Although there were differences in survival between the ICI era and the non-ICI era, these results demonstrate that ICI positively affected the survival of younger patients with advanced melanoma (first age group) than it had beneficial effects on older patients. Moreover, having had cancer surgery and holding an insurance policy were positive predictors for patient survival. This study emphasizes that adequate clinical and preclinical studies are important to enhance ICI outcomes across age groups.

Abstract Background Contemporary to the rapidly evolving landscape of cancer immunotherapy is the equally changing understanding of immune tumor microenvironments (TMEs) which is crucial to the success of these therapies. Their reliance on a robust host immune response necessitates clinical grade measurements of immune TMEs at diagnosis. In this study, we describe a stable tumor immunogenic profile describing immune TMEs in multiple tumor types with ability to predict clinical benefit from immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). Methods A tumor immunogenic signature (TIGS) was derived from targeted RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) and gene expression analysis of 1323 clinical solid tumor cases spanning 35 histologies using unsupervised analysis. TIGS correlation with ICI response and survival was assessed in a retrospective cohort of NSCLC, melanoma and RCC tumor blocks, alone and combined with TMB, PD-L1 IHC and cell proliferation biomarkers. Results Unsupervised clustering of RNA-seq profiles uncovered a 161 gene signature where T cell and B cell activation, IFNg, chemokine, cytokine and interleukin pathways are over-represented. Mean expression of these genes produced three distinct TIGS score categories: strong (n = 384/1323; 29.02%), moderate (n = 354/1323; 26.76%), and weak (n = 585/1323; 44.22%). Strong TIGS tumors presented an improved ICI response rate of 37% (30/81); with highest response rate advantage occurring in NSCLC (ORR = 36.6%; 16/44; p = 0.051). Similarly, overall survival for strong TIGS tumors trended upward (median = 25 months; p = 0.19). Integrating the TIGS score categories with neoplastic influence quantified via cell proliferation showed highly proliferative and strong TIGS tumors correlate with significantly higher ICI ORR than poorly proliferative and weak TIGS tumors [14.28%; p = 0.0006]. Importantly, we noted that strong TIGS and highly [median = not achieved; p = 0.025] or moderately [median = 16.2 months; p = 0.025] proliferative tumors had significantly better survival compared to weak TIGS, highly proliferative tumors [median = 7.03 months]. Importantly, TIGS discriminates subpopulations of potential ICI responders that were considered negative for response by TMB and PD-L1. Conclusions TIGS is a comprehensive and informative measurement of immune TME that effectively characterizes host immune response to ICIs in multiple tumors. The results indicate that when combined with PD-L1, TMB and cell proliferation, TIGS provides greater context of both immune and neoplastic influences on the TME for implementation into clinical practice.

Objectives: Inhibition of the PI3K/mTOR pathway suppresses breast cancer (BC) growth, enhances anti-tumor immune responses, and works synergistically with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). The objective here was to identify a subclass of PI3K inhibitors that, when combined with paclitaxel, is effective in enhancing response to ICI. Methods: C57BL/6 mice were orthotopically implanted with syngeneic luminal/triple-negative-like PyMT cells exhibiting high endogenous PI3K activity. Tumor growth in response to treatment with anti-PD-1 + anti-CTLA-4 (ICI), paclitaxel (PTX), and either the PI3Kα-specific inhibitor alpelisib, the pan-PI3K inhibitor copanlisib, or the broad spectrum PI3K/mTOR inhibitor gedatolisib was evaluated in reference to monotherapy or combinations of these therapies. Effects of these therapeutics on intratumoral immune populations were determined by multicolor FACS. Results: Treatment with alpelisib + PTX inhibited PyMT tumor growth and increased tumor-infiltrating granulocytes but did not significantly affect the number of tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells and did not synergize with ICI. Copanlisib + PTX + ICI significantly inhibited PyMT growth and increased activation of intratumoral CD8+ T cells as compared to ICI alone, yet did not inhibit tumor growth more than ICI alone. In contrast, gedatolisib + ICI resulted in significantly greater inhibition of tumor growth compared to ICI alone and induced durable dendritic-cell, CD8+ T-cell, and NK-cell responses. Adding PTX to this regimen yielded complete regression in 60% of tumors. Conclusion: PI3K/mTOR inhibition plus PTX heightens response to ICI and may provide a viable therapeutic approach for treatment of metastatic BC.

BackgroundTumor-specific antibodies have been reported in patients with cancers responding to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI), and there is an increasing appreciation for the potential role of B cells in mediating ICI responses. However, the humoral immune response to melanoma remains incompletely defined. We hypothesized that screening sera for antibodies by immunoprecipitation with lysates of cultured melanoma cells would increase the likelihood of detecting circulating antibodies in melanoma patients receiving ICI, and potentially identify novel antibody targets associated with treatment response and/or immune-related adverse events (IRAEs).MethodsPre-and on/post-treatment sera or plasma from 12 clinically-annotated patients with advanced metastatic melanoma receiving ICI were assayed for tumor-specific antibodies with an established immunoprecipitation platform. 35S-methionine-labeled lysates from cultured 624Mel cells were used for immunoprecipitation. 624Mel expresses several shared non-mutated melanoma antigens (e.g., MAGEA3, tyrosinase, MART-1/Melan-A, gp75, and gp100). Antigen identity was determined using on-bead digests followed by mass spectrometry, and was confirmed by immunoprecipitation with in vitro transcription/translation (IVTT) products.ResultsAntibodies reactive against 624Mel proteins were detected in 4 of 12 (33%) patients (table 1). Mass spectrometric sequencing performed on proteins captured with sera from 3 of 4 patients identified several putative antigens. Immunoprecipitation with IVTT candidate proteins confirmed antibodies against melanoma-associated and cancer testis antigens NY-ESO-1, SSX2 and MAGEA10. Antibodies were observed in 1 of 1 (100%) patient with a complete response, 2 of 4 (50%) with a partial response, 1 of 1 (100%) with stable disease, and 0 of 6 (0%) with progressive disease. Antibody levels varied over the course of therapy, with previously undetectable specificities arising during treatment response in patients #1–3. Patient #1 with a complete tumor regression developed antibodies to SSX2 and MAGEA10 that were absent before treatment. Further, detection of these antibodies coincided with diagnosis of IRAEs (anti-SSX2 with pancreatitis and anti-MAGEA10 with dermatitis). In contrast, patient #3, initially with a partial tumor regression, demonstrated a loss of detectable anti-NY-ESO-1 antibodies upon disease progression, and subsequent metastasectomy demonstrated loss of NY-ESO-1 protein expression in the progressing tumor. Testing sera from all 12 patients with IVTT products for NY-ESO-1, SSX2 and MAGEA10 did not reveal additional humoral responses.Abstract 231 Table 1Antibodies detected in the serum or plasma of patients with metastatic melanoma treated with ICI therapy. Treatment response indicates best overall response according to RECIST v1.1. Post-treatment blood collections were drawn during or after ICI therapy.ConclusionsOur comprehensive screening platform detected circulating antibodies specific to multiple melanoma-associated and cancer testis antigens in patients deriving clinical benefit from ICI. Expanded investigations of the evolution of antibody production over the course of ICI therapy, associated with tumor response to treatment and development of IRAEs, are warranted.AcknowledgementsThis study was supported by the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg-Kimmel Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy, and NIH P30-AR070254.Ethics ApprovalThis study was approved by the Johns Hopkins Institutional Review Board, approval #NA_00090257.
