Stratification system with dual human endogenous retroviruses for predicting immunotherapy efficacy in metastatic clear-cell renal cell carcinoma by Li Xu, Stephane Oudard, Catherine Sautes-Fridman, Xiaoping Su, Gabriel G. Malouf, Virginie Verkarre, Salma Kotti, Fangrong Yan, Yann-Alexandre Vano, Wolf Herve Fridman, Cheng-Ming Sun, Xiaofan Lu, Wenxuan Cheng

“…While the dysregulation of ERV transcription has been linked to immune cell infiltration in various cancers, its relationship with immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) response in solid tumors, particularly metastatic clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), remains inadequately explored.Methods This study analyzed patients with metastatic ccRCC from two prospective clinical trials, encompassing 181 patients receiving nivolumab in the CheckMate trials (−009 to –010 and −025) and 48 patients treated with the ipilimumab-nivolumab combination in the BIONIKK trial. …”

Shed antigen-induced blocking effect on CAR-T cells targeting Glypican-3 in Hepatocellular Carcinoma by Wei Gao, Tong Ding, Beicheng Sun, Nan Li, Fang Gao, Meng Jia, Mitchell Ho, Na Li, Luan Sun, Zhanhui Gao, Lei Ao, Sujuan Ma, Peihua Lu, Shaochang Jia

“…Therefore, sGPC3 acted as dominant negative regulators when competed with cell surface GPC3 to bind anti-GPC3 CAR-T cells, leading to an inhibitory effect on CAR-T cells in HCC.Conclusions We provide a proof-of-concept study demonstrating that GPC3 shedding might cause worse response to CAR-T cell treatment by competing with cell surface GPC3 for CAR-T cell binding, which revealed a new mechanism of tumor immune escape in HCC, providing a novel biomarker for patient enrolment in future clinical trials and/or treatments with GPC3-targeted CAR-T cells.…”
