NCT ID: NCT00471887

Last Updated: 2020-10-26

Results Overview

Tumor infiltration of cluster of differentiation 4 and cluster of differentiation 8 (CD4+ and CD8+) cells (intratumoral and peritumoral) was assessed by immunohistochemistry of tumor tissue obtained through biopsy before and after administration of tremelimumab.

Population: 19 (4 Responders and 15 Non-responders) Outcome data summary: An increase in intratumoral infiltration of lymphocytes following administration of tremelimumab independent of clinical response is expected

Tumor infiltration of cluster of differentiation 4 and cluster of differentiation 8 (CD4+ and CD8+) cells (intratumoral and peritumoral) was assessed by immunohistochemistry of tumor tissue obtained through biopsy before and after administration of tremelimumab. Up to 10 randomly selected fields per sample were analyzed.

HLA-DR is a surface marker of T cell activation after exposure to CTLA4 blocking antibodies. CD45RO is a maker of prior cognate antigen-exposed T cells. Together they mark cells with a surface phenotype of T effector or T effector memory cells. Ki67 is a marker of cell proliferation. The protein FOXP3 is involved in the regulation of the development and function of regulatory T cells, and serves as a marker of this cell type. Intratumoral expression of HLA-DR, CD45RO, Ki67 and FOXP3 was assessed by immunohistochemistry of tumor tissue obtained through biopsy before and after administration of tremelimumab.

T cell receptor (TCR) usage was analyzed in genomic DNA from peripheral blood from patients before and after treatment with tremelimumab. High-throughput deep sequencing of the TCR Vβ CDR3 (Complementarity - determining region 3) region was analyzed to better characterize the expansion and clonality of the T cell repertoire. The frequency of circulating invariant natural killer T cells (iNKT) cell subsets were also characterized by flow cytometry in peripheral blood samples pre- and post-treatment. iNKT cells regulate the balance of Th1/Th2 immune responses.

Th17 cells are CD4+ cells that are potent inducers of tissue inflammation and autoimmunity. The levels of this T cell subset were assessed in peripheral blood from patients before and after administration of tremelimumab. Th17 cells were assessed since the major dose limiting toxicities are inflammatory and autoimmune in nature. In addition, the phosphorylation of signaling molecules downstream of the TCR and cytokine receptors was evaluated in peripheral blood cells from patients before and after treatment with tremelimumab using intracellular flow cytometry. ab#cells = absolute number of cells
