概括
瘤突变负担 (TMB) 与STK11,KEAP1和EGFR变异相结合,可以预测非小细胞肺癌 (NSCLC) 的免疫检查点阻塞 (ICB) 反应. 高TMB甚至预测了这些生物标志物的反应,避免过度处理.
科学领域:
- 在瘤学瘤学.
- 免疫治疗是一种免疫疗法.
- 基因组学就是基因组学.
背景情况:
- 在预测非小细胞肺癌 (NSCLC) 免疫检查点阻塞 (ICB) 反应中,STK11,KEAP1和EGFR变化的临床实用性受到争议.
- 矛盾的是,一些患有这些遗传变化的NSCLC患者对ICB治疗有持久的反应.
- 需要精细的组合生物标志物策略来准确识别可能受益于ICB的患者.
研究的目的:
- 开发一种更具体的组合生物标记方法,用于预测NSCLC中的ICB不响应.
- 评估STK11,KEAP1和EGFR变化的预测价值与瘤突变负担 (TMB) 结合用于ICB响应.
主要方法:
- 对254名接受PD-L1阻断单疗治疗的NSCLC患者进行了全面分析.
- 在发现队列 (n=75) 中使用全基因组测序 (WGS) 和在验证队列 (n=169) 中使用大面板测序.
- 评估了STK11/KEAP1/EGFR变化的特异性,用于低 (<10 muts/Mb) 和高 (≥10 muts/Mb) TMB层的ICB不响应.
主要成果:
- 在低TMB NSCLC中,STK11/KEAP1/EGFR变异对于ICB耐药性 (0-2.9%的应答率) 具有高度特异性.
- 在高TMB NSCLC中,这些变化的显著比例的患者仍然显示了持久的ICB益处 (44-85%的应答率).
- 无进展和整体存活分析支持了这些发现.
结论:
- 在STK11,KEAP1或EGFR变异的患者中,意外的ICB反应主要在高TMB患者中观察到.
- 整合TMB与STK11,KEAP1和EGFR变异提供了一个高度特定的组合生物标志物策略.
- 这种方法可以帮助限制接受ICB治疗的NSCLC患者的过度治疗.

Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine

Combining two or more treatment methods increases the life span of cancer patients while reducing damage to vital organs or tissue from the overuse of a single treatment. Combination therapy also targets different cancer-inducing pathways, thus reducing the chances of developing resistance to treatment.
The combination of the drug acetazolamide and sulforaphane is a good example of combination therapy to treat cancer. The cells in the interior of a large tumor often die due to the hypoxic and...

Tumor Immunotherapy
526
Immunotherapy is a treatment that boosts or manipulates the immune system to fight diseases, including cancer. For instance, by stimulating an immune response through vaccinations against viruses that cause cancers, like hepatitis B virus and human papillomavirus, these diseases can be prevented. Nonetheless, some cancer cells can avoid the immune system due to their rapid mutation and division. The immune response to many cancers involves three phases: elimination, equilibrium, and escape.
