Peripheral T cell lymphomas (PTCLs) comprise heterogeneous malignancies with limited therapeutic options. To uncover targetable vulnerabilities, we generate a collection of PTCL patient-derived tumor xenografts (PDXs) retaining histomorphology and molecular donor-tumor features over serial xenografting. PDX demonstrates remarkable heterogeneity, complex intratumor architecture, and stepwise trajectories mimicking primary evolutions. Combining functional transcriptional stratification and multiparametric imaging, we identify four distinct PTCL microenvironment subtypes with prognostic value. Mechanistically, we discover a subset of PTCLs expressing Epstein-Barr virus-specific T cell receptors and uncover the capacity of cancer-associated fibroblasts of counteracting treatments. PDXs' pre-clinical testing captures individual vulnerabilities, mirrors donor patients' clinical responses, and defines effective patient-tailored treatments. Ultimately, we assess the efficacy of CD5KO- and CD30- Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cells (CD5KO-CART and CD30_CART, respectively), demonstrating their therapeutic potential and the synergistic role of immune checkpoint inhibitors for PTCL treatment. This repository represents a resource for discovering and validating intrinsic and extrinsic factors and improving the selection of drugs/combinations and immune-based therapies.
外周T细胞淋巴瘤(PTCL)是一类异质性恶性肿瘤,治疗选择有限。为了发现可靶向的脆弱性,我们构建了一组源自PTCL患者的肿瘤异种移植模型(PDX),这些模型在连续异种移植过程中保留了组织形态学和分子供体肿瘤特征。PDX显示出显著的异质性、复杂的肿瘤内结构以及模拟原发肿瘤演变的逐步轨迹。结合功能转录分层和多参数成像,我们确定了四种具有预后价值的不同PTCL微环境亚型。机制上,我们发现了一部分表达爱泼斯坦-巴尔病毒特异性T细胞受体的PTCL,并揭示了癌症相关成纤维细胞对抗治疗的能力。PDX的临床前测试捕捉到个体脆弱性,反映供体患者的临床反应,并确定有效的个体化治疗方案。最终,我们评估了CD5敲除和CD30嵌合抗原受体T细胞(分别为CD5KO-CART和CD30_CART)的疗效,证明了它们的治疗潜力以及免疫检查点抑制剂在PTCL治疗中的协同作用。这个资源库是发现和验证内在和外在因素、改善药物/联合治疗及基于免疫治疗选择的一个资源。
