    Abstract Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors, drugs utilized in cancer, are being repurposed for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) (COVID-19). Recently, BTK inhibitors acalabrutinib and ibrutinib have been found to protect against pulmonary injury in a small group of patients infected with SARS-CoV-2. The high levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines found in the circulation of COVID-19 patients with severe lung disease suggest the involvement of the innate immune system in this process. Understanding the potential mechanism of action of BTK inhibition in SARS-CoV-2 is clearly of importance to determine how acalabrutinib, ibrutinib and possibly other BTK inhibitors may provide protection against lung injury.

    Abstract The ability of IL12 to stimulate natural killer (NK) cell and T-cell antitumor activity makes it an attractive candidate for the immune therapy of cancer. Our group has demonstrated that IL12 enhances the NK cell response to antibody-coated tumor cells and conducted three clinical trials utilizing IL12 with mAbs (OSU-9968, OSU-0167, and OSU-11010). To better characterize IL12-induced immunity, plasma cytokine levels were measured in 21 patients from these trials with favorable and unfavorable responses. t-statistics and linear modeling were used to test for differences within and between response groups by examining levels at baseline and post-IL12 administration. Patients exhibited significant increases in 11 cytokines post-IL12 administration when analyzed collectively. However, several cytokines were differentially induced by IL12 depending on response. GMCSF was significantly increased in complete/partially responding patients, while stable disease patients had significant increases in IL10 and decreases in VEGF-C. Patients who experienced progressive disease had significant increases in CCL3, CCL4, IL18, TNFα, CXCL10, CCL8, CCL2, IL6, and IFNγ. The increases in CCL3, CCL4, and IL6 in progressive disease patients were significantly higher than in clinically benefitting patients and most prominent within the first two cycles of IL12 therapy. This correlative pilot study has identified changes that occur in levels of circulating cytokines following IL12 administration to patients with cancer, but this report must be viewed as exploratory in nature. It is meant to spark further inquiry into the topic via the analysis of additional cohorts of patients with similar characteristics who have received IL12 in a uniform fashion.
    Significance: IL12 activates immune cells and is used to treat cancer. The profile of circulating cytokines was measured in an exploratory fashion in patients with cancer that received IL12 in combination with mAbs. This correlative pilot study could serve as the basis for additional studies of IL12 effects on the production of immune cytokines.

    Abstract Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) is a non-receptor kinase belonging to the Tec family of kinases. The role of BTK in B cell receptor signaling is well defined and is known to play a key role in the proliferation and survival of malignant B cells. Moreover, BTK has been found to be expressed in cells of the myeloid lineage. BTK has been shown to contribute to a variety of cellular pathways in myeloid cells including signaling in the NLRP3 inflammasome, receptor activation of nuclear factor-κβ and inflammation, chemokine receptor activation affecting migration, and phagocytosis. Myeloid cells are crucial components of the tumor microenvironment and suppressive myeloid cells contribute to cancer progression, highlighting a potential role for BTK inhibition in the treatment of malignancy. The increased interest in BTK inhibition in cancer has resulted in many preclinical studies that are testing the efficacy of using single-agent BTK inhibitors. Moreover, the ability of tumor cells to develop resistance to single-agent checkpoint inhibitors has resulted in clinical studies utilizing BTK inhibitors in combination with these agents to improve clinical responses. Furthermore, BTK regulates the immune response in microbial and viral infections through B cells and myeloid cells such as monocytes and macrophages. In this review, we describe the role that BTK plays in supporting suppressive myeloid cells, including myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) and tumor-associated macrophages (TAM), while also discussing the anticancer effects of BTK inhibition and briefly describe the role of BTK signaling and BTK inhibition in microbial and viral infections.

    Abstract Tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT) is a rare benign tumor that involves the synovium, bursa, and tendon sheath, resulting in reduced mobility of the affected joint or limb. The current standard of care for TGCT is surgical resection. However, some patients have tumor recurrence, present with unresectable tumors, or have tumors that are in locations where resection could result in amputations or significant debility. Therefore, the development of systemic agents with activity against TGCT to expand treatment options is a highly unmet medical need. Pathologically, TGCT is characterized by the overexpression of colony-stimulating factor 1 (CSF-1), which leads to the recruitment of colony-stimulating factor-1 receptor (CSF-1R) expressing macrophages that make up the primary cell type within these giant cell tumors. The binding of CSF-1 and CSF-1R controls cell survival and proliferation of monocytes and the switch from a monocytic to macrophage phenotype contributing to the growth and inflammation within these tumors. Therefore, molecules that target CSF-1/CSF-1R have emerged as potential systemic agents for the treatment of TGCT. Given the role of macrophages in regulating tumorigenesis, CSF1/CSF1R-targeting agents have emerged as attractive therapeutic targets for solid tumors. Pexidartinib is an orally bioavailable and potent inhibitor of CSF-1R which is one of the most clinically used agents. In this review, we discuss the biology of TGCT and review the pre-clinical and clinical development of pexidartinib which ultimately led to the FDA approval of this agent for the treatment of TGCT as well as ongoing clinical studies utilizing pexidartinib in the setting of cancer.

    Abstract An inflammatory microenvironment has been shown to play an important role in the growth and metastasis of tumors. The NLRP3 inflammasome is a multi-protein complex of the innate immune system that is responsible for the production of the potent inflammatory cytokine IL-1β. Tumor- associated macrophages (TAM) are an expanded population of immune cells found in the tumor microenvironment that can promote the initiation and metastasis of tumor cells. Their presence has been correlated with disease burden, highlighting the therapeutic potential of targeting this population. However, to date clinically relevant pharmacologic strategies to target TAM remain elusive. Here, we show that

    Abstract Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) have been linked to loss of immune effector cell function through a variety of mechanisms such as the generation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species and the production of inhibitory cytokines. Our group has shown that signaling through Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) is important for MDSC function. Ibrutinib is an orally administered targeted agent that inhibits BTK activation and is currently used for the treatment of B cell malignancies. Using a syngeneic murine model of melanoma, the effect of BTK inhibition with ibrutinib on the therapeutic response to systemic PD-L1 blockade was studied. BTK was expressed by murine MDSC and their activation was inhibited by ibrutinib. Ibrutinib was not directly cytotoxic to cancer cells in vitro, but it inhibited BTK activation in MDSC and reduced expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (NOS2) and production of nitric oxide. Ibrutinib treatments decreased the levels of circulating MDSC in vivo and increased the therapeutic efficacy of anti-PD-L1 antibody treatment. Gene expression profiling showed that ibrutinib decreased Cybb (NOX2) signaling, and increased IL-17 signaling (upregulating downstream targets Mmp9, Ptgs2, and S100a8). These results suggest that further exploration of MDSC inhibition could enhance the immunotherapy of advanced melanoma.PrécisInhibition of Bruton's tyrosine kinase, a key enzyme in myeloid cellular function, improves therapeutic response to an anti-PD-L1 antibody in an otherwise fairly resistant murine melanoma model.

    Abstract Myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) have gained significant attention for their immunosuppressive role in cancer and their ability to contribute to tumor progression and metastasis. Understanding the role of MDSCs in driving cancer cell migration, a process fundamental to metastasis, is essential to fully comprehend and target MDSC-tumor cell interactions. This study employs microfabricated platforms, which simulate the structural cues present in the tumor microenvironment (TME) to elucidate the effects of MDSCs on the migratory phenotype of cancer cells at the single cell level. The results indicate that the presence of MDSCs enhances the motility of cancer-epithelial cells when directional cues (either topographical or spatial) are present. This behavior appears to be independent of cell-cell contact and driven by soluble byproducts from heterotypic interactions between MDSCs and cancer cells. Moreover, MDSC cell-motility is also impacted by the presence of cancer cells and the cancer cell secretome in the presence of directional cues. Epithelial dedifferentiation is the likely mechanism for changes in cancer cell motility in response to MDSCs. These results highlight the biochemical and biostructural conditions under which MDSCs can support cancer cell migration, and could therefore provide new avenues of research and therapy aimed at stemming cancer progression.

    Abstract Purpose: Treatment options are limited in patients with metastatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN). We present the results for a phase II trial of combination nivolumab and temozolomide in patients with advanced NEN along with results of immune changes in peripheral blood.
    Patients and methods: NCT03728361 is a nonrandomized, phase II study of nivolumab and temozolomide in patients with NEN. The primary endpoint was response rate using RECIST 1.1. Secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and safety. Immune profiling was performed by mass cytometry to evaluate the effect on peripheral blood immune cell subsets.
    Results: Among all 28 patients with NEN, the confirmed response rate was 9/28 [32.1%, 95% confidence interval (CI): 15.9-52.4]. Of 11 patients with lung NEN, the response rate was 64% (n = 7); there was a significant difference in responses by primary tumor location (lung vs. others, P = 0.020). The median PFS was 8.8 months (95% CI: 3.9-11.1 months), and median OS was 32.3 months (95% CI: 20.7-not reached months). Exploratory blood immune cell profiling revealed an increase in circulating CD8+ T cells (27.9% ± 13.4% vs. 31.7% ± 14.6%, P = 0.03) and a decrease in CD4+ T cells (59.6% ± 13.1% vs. 56.5% ± 13.0%, P = 0.001) after 2 weeks of treatment. LAG-3-expressing total T cells were lower in patients experiencing a partial response (0.18% ± 0.24% vs. 0.83% ± 0.55%, P = 0.028). Myeloid-derived suppressor cell levels increased during the study and did not correlate with response.
    Conclusions: Combination nivolumab and temozolomide demonstrated promising activity in NEN. See related commentary by Velez and Garon, p. 691.

    Abstract Introduction: Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) are a subset of immature myeloid cells that inhibit anti-tumor immunity and contribute to immune therapy resistance. MDSC populations were measured in melanoma patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI).
    Methods: Patients with melanoma (n=128) provided blood samples at baseline (BL), and before cycles 2 and 3 (BC2, BC3). Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were analyzed for MDSC (CD33
    Results: Levels of MDSC as a percentage of PBMC increased during ICI (BL: 9.2 ± 1.0% to BC3: 23.6 ± 1.9%, p<0.0001), and patients who developed progressive disease (PD) had higher baseline MDSC. In patients who had a complete or partial response (CR, PR), total MDSC levels rose dramatically and plateaued (BL: 6.4 ± 1.4%, BC2: 26.2 ± 4.2%, BC3: 27.5 ± 4.4%; p<0.0001), whereas MDSC rose less sharply in PD patients (BL: 11.7 ± 2.1%, BC2: 18.3 ± 3.1%, BC3: 19.0 ± 3.2%; p=0.1952). Subset analysis showed that within the expanding MDSC population, PMN-MDSC and E-MDSC levels decreased, while the proportion of M-MDSC remained constant during ICI. In PD patients, the proportion of PMN-MDSC (as a percentage of total MDSC) decreased (BL: 25.1 ± 4.7%, BC2: 16.1 ± 5.2%, BC3: 8.6 ± 1.8%; p=0.0105), whereas a heretofore under-characterized CD14+/CD15+ double positive MDSC subpopulation increased significantly (BL: 8.7 ± 1.4% to BC3: 26.9 ± 4.9%; p=0.0425).
    Conclusions: MDSC levels initially increased significantly in responders. PMN-MDSC decreased and CD14+CD15+ MDSC increased significantly in PD patients. Changes in MDSC levels may have prognostic value in ICI.
