AI Article Synopsis

  • Immunotherapies, especially immune checkpoint blockade (ICB), have improved cancer treatment outcomes, but many patients do not have long-lasting responses due to resistance mechanisms that are not fully understood.
  • Researchers engineered a specific panel of NSCLC (non-small cell lung cancer) tumor cells and T cells to study the resistance, discovering a key gene involved in preventing T cell-induced tumor death.
  • This gene not only contributes to T cell resistance in NSCLC but is also linked to poor outcomes in other cancers like melanoma, suggesting its potential as both a target for therapy and a biomarker for predicting treatment responses.

Article Abstract

Immunotherapies, in particular immune checkpoint blockade (ICB), have improved the clinical outcome of cancer patients, although many fail to mount a durable response. Several resistance mechanisms have been identified, but our understanding of the requirements for a robust ICB response is incomplete. We have engineered an MHC I/antigen: TCR-matched panel of human NSCLC cancer and T cells to identify tumor cell-intrinsic T cell resistance mechanisms. The top differentially expressed gene in resistant tumor cells was . This serine protease inhibitor of the effector T cell-derived molecule granzyme B prevents caspase-mediated tumor apoptosis. Concordantly, we show that genetic ablation of reverts T cell resistance of NSCLC cell lines, whereas its overexpression reduces T cell sensitivity. expression in NSCLC strongly correlates with a mesenchymal phenotype. We also find that is commonly amplified in cancer, particularly melanoma in which it is indicative of poor prognosis. Single-cell RNA sequencing of ICB-treated melanomas revealed that expression is elevated not only in cells from post- versus pre-treatment cancers, but also in ICB-refractory cancers. In NSCLC we commonly observed rare SERPINB9-positive cancer cells, possibly accounting for reservoirs of ICB-resistant cells. While underscoring as a potential target to combat immunotherapy resistance, these results suggest its potential to serve as a prognostic and predictive biomarker.
