Sumario: | Emerging immunotherapies quest for better patient stratification in cancer treatment decisions. Moderate response rates of PD-1 inhibition in gastric and esophagogastric junction cancers urge for meaningful human model systems that allow for investigating immune responses ex vivo. Here, the standardized patient-derived tissue culture (PDTC) model was applied to investigate tumor response to the PD-1 inhibitor Nivolumab and the CD3/CD28 t-lymphocyte activator ImmunoCult(TM). Resident t-lymphocytes, tumor proliferation and apoptosis, as well as bulk gene expression data were analyzed after 72 h of PD-1 inhibition either as monotherapy or combined with Oxaliplatin or ImmunoCult(TM). Individual responses to PD-1 inhibition were found ex vivo and combination with chemotherapy or t-lymphocyte activation led to enhanced antitumoral effects in PDTCs. T-lymphocyte activation as well as the addition of pre-cultured peripheral blood mononuclear cells improved PDTC for studying t-lymphocyte and tumor cell communication. These data support the potential of PDTC to investigate immunotherapy ex vivo in gastric and esophagogastric junction cancer. |
