Here, we show that 7HP349, a small-molecule activator of lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) and very late activation antigen-4 (VLA-4) integrin cell-adhesion receptors, facilitated the preferential localization of tumor-specific T cells to the tumor and improved antitumor response...We identified baseline CXCL12 gene expression may improve response likelihood to anti-CTLA-4 therapies. Our results provided a proof-of-principle demonstration that LFA-1 activation could convert a T cell-exclusionary TME to a T-cell enriched TME through mechanisms involving cooperation with innate immune cells.
