Neoadjuvant radioimmunotherapy in pancreatic cancer enhances effector T cell infiltration and shortens their distances to tumor cells. (PubMed, Sci Adv)
Adding SBRT to GVAX/a-PD-1 shortens the distances from PD-1+CD8+ T cells to tumor cells and to PD-L1+ myeloid cells, which portends prolonged survival. These findings have guided the design of next radioimmunotherapy studies by targeting M2-like TAM in PDACs.

A platform trial of neoadjuvant and adjuvant antitumor vaccination alone or in combination with PD-1 antagonist and CD137 agonist antibodies in patients with resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma. (PubMed, Nat Commun)
We enrolled patients with resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma into such a platform trial (NCT02451982) to receive pancreatic cancer GVAX vaccine with low-dose cyclophosphamide alone (Arm A; n = 16), with anti-PD-1 antibody nivolumab (Arm B; n = 14), and with both nivolumab and anti-CD137 agonist antibody urelumab (Arm C; n = 10), respectively...GVAX+nivolumab+urelumab demonstrates numerically-improved disease-free survival (HR = 0.55, p = 0.242; HR = 0.51, p = 0.173) and overall survival (HR = 0.59, p = 0.377; HR = 0.53, p = 0.279) compared to GVAX and GVAX+nivolumab, respectively, although not statistically significant due to small sample size. Therefore, neoadjuvant and adjuvant GVAX with PD-1 blockade and CD137 agonist antibody therapy is safe, increases intratumoral activated, cytotoxic T cells, and demonstrates a potentially promising efficacy signal in resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma that warrants further study.

Single-cell RNA and TCR sequencing of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes identifies changes in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas following neoadjuvant treatment with combined anti-PD-1 blocking and anti-CD137 agonist therapy (AACR 2023)
We compared specimens from 3 treatment arms for downstream analysis: Arm A: an allogeneic whole cell vaccine, GVAX (n=7); Arm B: GVAX and nivolumab (n=4); Arm C: GVAX, nivolumab, and urelumab (n=4)... Analysis of combination GVAX, PD-1 inhibition and CD137 agonist therapy demonstrated changes in multiple immune cell proportions and their functional pathways. These data provide new evidence that PDACs can become T cell rich and respond to combination immunotherapies.

Nivolumab and a CCR2/CCR5 dual antagonist (BMS-813160) with or without GVAX for locally advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas: Results of phase I study. (ASCO-GI 2023)
This open-label, single center two-arm phase I/II trial uses neoadjuvant/adjuvant nivolumab and BMS-813160 +/- GVAX following 8 to 16 doses of FOLFIRINOX and SBRT in patients with newly diagnosed LAPC... We determined that nivolumab 480mg IV q4 weeks, GVAX 5x108 cells intradermal q4 weeks, and BMS-813160 300mg PO BID were the RP2D for the phase 2 portion of this investigation which is ongoing. This combination appears safe and neoadjuvant use does not lead to delay in surgery. Clinical trial information: NCT03767582.

Multi-omic analyses of changes in the tumor microenvironment of pancreatic adenocarcinoma following neoadjuvant treatment with anti-PD-1 therapy. (PubMed, Cancer Cell)
Bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing found that nivolumab alters CD4 T cell chemotaxis signaling in association with CD11b neutrophil degranulation, and CD8 T cell expression of CD137 was required for optimal T cell activation. These findings provide insights into PD-1-regulated immune pathways in PDAC that should inform more effective therapeutic combinations that include TAN regulators and T cell activators.

Adding combination immunotherapy consisting of cancer vaccine, anti-PD-1 and anti-CSF1R antibodies to gemcitabine improves anti-tumor efficacy in murine model of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. (PubMed, Ann Pancreat Cancer)
Gemcitabine with GVAX and anti-PD1 with or without anti-CSF-1R also improved the infiltration of effector CD8+ T-cells, and the presence of anti-CSF-1R in the chemo-immunotherapy regimens decreased the infiltration of myeloid cells. The overlapping mechanisms of the components in the chemo-immunotherapy regimens may explain the lack of survival difference between the various regimens, and this remains to be explored.

While the study did not meet its primary endpoint of improvement in OS of Arm A over Arm B, the OS was comparable to standard therapy. Objective responses and immunologic changes in the tumor microenvironment were evident.
