PD-1/PD-L1 blockade has so far shown limited survival benefit for high-grade ovarian carcinomas. By using paired samples from the NeoPembrOv randomized phase II trial (NCT03275506), for which primary outcomes are published, and by combining RNA-seq and multiplexed immunofluorescence staining, we explore the impact of NeoAdjuvant ChemoTherapy (NACT) ± Pembrolizumab (P) on the tumor environment, and identify parameters that correlated with response to immunotherapy as a pre-planned exploratory analysis. Indeed, i) combination therapy results in a significant increase in intraepithelial CD8PD-1 T cells, ii) combining endothelial and monocyte gene signatures with the CD8B/FOXP3 expression ratio is predictive of response to NACT + P with an area under the curve of 0.93 (95% CI 0.85-1.00) and iii) high CD8B/FOXP3 and high CD8B/ENTPD1 ratios are significantly associated with positive response to NACT + P, while KDR and VEGFR2 expression are associated with resistance. These results indicate that targeting regulatory T cells and endothelial cells, especially VEGFR2 endothelial cells, could overcome immune resistance of ovarian cancers.
PD-1/PD-L1 阻断疗法迄今为止对高级别卵巢癌的生存获益有限。通过使用 NeoPembrOv 随机 II 期试验(NCT03275506)的配对样本,该试验已公布主要结果,并结合 RNA-seq 和多重免疫荧光染色,我们探讨了 NeoAdjuvant ChemoTherapy(NACT)± Pembrolizumab(P)对肿瘤微环境的影响,并确定了与免疫治疗反应相关的参数,这是一项预先计划的探索性分析。事实上,i)联合治疗导致上皮内 CD8PD-1 T 细胞显著增加,ii)将内皮和单核细胞基因特征与 CD8B/FOXP3 表达比值相结合,可预测 NACT+P 的反应,曲线下面积为 0.93(95%CI 0.85-1.00),iii)高 CD8B/FOXP3 和高 CD8B/ENTPD1 比值与 NACT+P 的阳性反应显著相关,而 KDR 和 VEGFR2 表达与耐药性相关。这些结果表明,靶向调节性 T 细胞和内皮细胞,特别是 VEGFR2 内皮细胞,可能克服卵巢癌的免疫抵抗。
