Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) using tumor-reactive T cells is a promising form of immunotherapy to specifically target cancer. However, the survival and functional maintenance of adoptively transferred T cells remains a challenge, ultimately limiting their efficacy. Here, we evaluated the use of recombinant IL7-Fc in ACT. In a lymphopenic murine melanoma model, IL7-Fc treatment led to the enhanced inhibition of tumor growth with an increased number of adoptively transferred CD8 T cells in tumor tissue and tumor-draining lymph nodes. Additionally, IL7-Fc further enhanced anti-tumor responses that were induced by recombinant human IL2 in the same mouse model. In contrast, in an immunocompetent murine melanoma model, IL7-Fc dampened the anti-tumor immunity. Further, IL7-Fc decreased the proliferation of adoptively transferred and immune-activated tumor-reactive CD8 T cells in immunocompetent mice by inducing the massive expansion of endogenous T cells, thereby limiting the space for adoptively transferred T cells. Our data suggest that IL7-Fc is principally beneficial for enhancing the efficacy of tumor-reactive T-cells in lymphopenic conditions for the ACT.
