Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) is the primary treatment for non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), known to stimulate inflammatory cytokines, notably interferon (IFN)-γ. We observed that prolonged IFN-γ exposure fosters adaptive resistance in recurrent tumors, aiding immune evasion and tumor proliferation. We identify HLA-E and NKG2A, part of a novel NK and T cell checkpoint pathway, as key mediators of resistance in BCG-unresponsive NMIBC. IFN-γ enhances HLA-E and PD-L1 expression in recurrent tumors, with an enrichment of intra-tumoral NKG2A-expressing NK and CD8 T cells. CXCL9 macrophages and dendritic cells and CXCL12-expressing stromal cells likely recruit CXCR3/CXCR4-expressing NK and T cells and CXCR7 HLA-E tumor cells. NK and CD8 T cells remain functional within BCG-unresponsive tumors but are inhibited by HLA-E and PD-L1, providing a framework for combined NKG2A and PD-L1 blockade strategy for bladder-sparing treatment of BCG-unresponsive NMIBC.
卡介苗（BCG）是非肌肉浸润性膀胱癌（NMIBC）的主要治疗方法，已知其可刺激炎性细胞因子，尤其是干扰素（IFN）-γ。我们观察到，长时间暴露于IFN-γ会促进复发性肿瘤产生适应性耐药，有助于免疫逃逸和肿瘤增殖。我们确定HLA-E和NKG2A是一种新型NK和T细胞检查点通路的组成部分，是卡介苗无反应性NMIBC耐药的关键介质。IFN-γ可增强复发性肿瘤中HLA-E和PD-L1的表达，肿瘤内表达NKG2A的NK细胞和CD8 T细胞增多。表达CXCL9的巨噬细胞和树突状细胞以及表达CXCL12的基质细胞可能招募表达CXCR3/CXCR4的NK细胞和T细胞以及表达CXCR7的HLA-E肿瘤细胞。NK细胞和CD8 T细胞在卡介苗无反应性肿瘤中仍具有功能，但受到HLA-E和PD-L1的抑制，这为联合使用NKG2A和PD-L1阻断策略进行卡介苗无反应性NMIBC的膀胱保留治疗提供了一个框架。
