Definitions

  • T cells The ability of T cells to mediate an immune response against an antigen requires two distinct signaling interactions (Viglietta, V. et al. (2007) Neurotherapeutics 4:666-675; Korman, A. J. et al. (2007) Adv. Immunol.90:297-339).
  • APC antigen-presenting cells
  • TCR T cell receptor
  • the immune system is tightly controlled by a network of costimulatory and co-inhibitory ligands and receptors. These molecules provide the second signal for T cell activation and provide a balanced network of positive and negative signals to maximize immune responses against infection, while limiting immunity to self (Wang, L. et al. (Epub Mar.7, 2011) J. Exp. Med.208(3):577-92; Lepenies, B. et al. (2008) Endocrine, Metabolic & Immune Disorders--Drug Targets 8:279-288).
  • costimulatory signals include the binding between the B7.1 (CD80) and B7.2 (CD86) ligands of the APC and the CD28 and CTLA-4 receptors of the CD4 + T-lymphocyte (Sharpe, A. H. et al. (2002) Nature Rev. Immunol.2:116-126; Lindley, P. S. et al. (2009) Immunol. Rev.229:307-321). Binding of B7.1 or B7.2 to CD28 stimulates T cell activation, whereas binding of B7.1 or B7.2 to CTLA-4 inhibits such activation (Dong, C. et al. (2003) Immunolog. Res.28(1):39-48; Greenwald, R. J. et al. (2005) Ann. Rev.
  • CD28 is constitutively expressed on the surface of T cells (Gross, J., et al. (1992) J. Immunol.149:380-388), whereas CTLA-4 expression is rapidly up- regulated following T-cell activation (Linsley, P. et al. (1996) Immunity 4:535-543).
  • B7 Superfamily B7 Superfamily
  • FIG. 1 A. J. et al. (2001) Nature Immunol.2(3):203-209; Sharpe, A. H. et al. (2002) Nature Rev. Immunol.2:116-126; Collins, M. et al. (2005) Genome Biol.6:223.1-223.7; Korman, A. J. et al. (2007) Adv. Immunol.90:297-339).
  • B7 Superfamily Several members of the B7 Superfamily are known, including B7.1 (CD80), B7.2 (CD86), the inducible co-stimulator ligand (ICOS-L), the programmed death-1 ligand (PD-L1; B7-H1), the programmed death-2 ligand (PD-L2; B7-DC), B7- H3, B7-H4 and B7-H6 (Collins, M. et al. (2005) Genome Biol.6:223.1-223.7).
  • the Programmed Death 1 (PD-1) protein is an inhibitory member of the extended
  • CD28/CTLA-4 family of T cell regulators (Okazaki et al. (2002) Curr Opin Immunol 14: 391779-82; Bennett et al. (2003) J. Immunol.170:711-8).
  • Other members of the CD28 family include CD28, CTLA-4, ICOS and BTLA.
  • PD-1 is suggested to exist as a monomer, lacking the unpaired cysteine residue characteristic of other CD28 family members. PD-1 is expressed on activated B cells, T cells, and monocytes.
  • the PD-1 gene encodes a 55 kDa type I transmembrane protein (Agata et al. (1996) Int Immunol.8:765-72). Although structurally similar to CTLA-4, PD-1 lacks the MYPPY motif (SEQ ID NO: 236) that is important for B7-1 and B7-2 binding.
  • Two ligands for PD-1 have been identified, PD-L1 (B7-H1) and PD-L2 (B7-DC), that have been shown to downregulate T cell activation upon binding to PD-1 (Freeman et al. (2000) J. Exp. Med.192:1027-34; Carter et al. (2002) Eur. J.
  • Both PD-L1 and PD-L2 are B7 homologs that bind to PD-1, but do not bind to other CD28 family members.
  • PD-L1 is abundant in a variety of human cancers (Dong et al. (2002) Nat. Med.8:787-9).
  • PD-1 is known as an immunoinhibitory protein that negatively regulates TCR signals (Ishida, Y. et al. (1992) EMBO J.11:3887-3895; Blank, C. et al. (Epub 2006 Dec.29) Immunol. Immunother. 56(5):739-745).
  • the interaction between PD-1 and PD-L1 can act as an immune checkpoint, which can lead to, e.g., a decrease in tumor infiltrating lymphocytes, a decrease in T-cell receptor mediated proliferation, and/or immune evasion by cancerous cells (Dong et al. (2003) J. Mol. Med.81:281-7; Blank et al. (2005) Cancer Immunol.
  • immunoinhibitory proteins such as PD-1, thus leading to activation of the immune system.

  • Another form of tumor specific antigen which may be used in conjunction with PD-1 blockade is purified heat shock proteins (HSP) isolated from the tumor tissue itself. These heat shock proteins contain fragments of proteins from the tumor cells and these HSPs are highly efficient at delivery to antigen presenting cells for eliciting tumor immunity (Suot, R & Srivastava, P (1995) Science 269:1585-1588; Tamura, Y. et al. (1997) Science 278:117-
  • DC Dendritic cells
  • DC's can be produced ex vivo and loaded with various protein and peptide antigens as well as tumor cell extracts (Nestle, F. et al. (1998) Nature Medicine 4: 328-332). DCs may also be transduced by genetic means to express these tumor antigens as well. DCs have also been fused directly to tumor cells for the purposes of immunization (Kugler, A. et al. (2000) Nature Medicine 6:332-336). As a method of vaccination, DC immunization may be effectively combined with other agent, e.g., PD-1 blockade, to activate more potent anti-tumor responses.

  • Bi-specific T-cell engagers are a class of artificial bispecific monoclonal antibodies that can direct a host's immune system, e.g., the T cells' cytotoxic activity, against cancer cells.
  • Bi- specific T-cell engagers can form a link between T cells and tumor cells, which causes T cells to exert cytotoxic activity on tumor cells by producing proteins like perforin and granzymes, independently of the presence of MHC I or co-stimulatory molecules. These proteins enter tumor cells and initiate the cell's apoptosis. This action mimics physiological processes observed during T cell attacks against tumor cells.

  • PD-1 is a CD28/CTLA-4 family member expressed, e.g., on activated CD4 + and CD8 + T cells, T regs , and B cells. It negatively regulates effector T cell signaling and function. PD-1 is induced on tumor-infiltrating T cells, and can result in functional exhaustion or dysfunction (Keir et al. (2008) Annu. Rev. Immunol.26:677-704; Pardoll et al. (2012) Nat Rev Cancer 12(4):252-64). PD-1 delivers a coinhibitory signal upon binding to either of its two ligands, Programmed Death-Ligand 1 (PD-L1) or Programmed Death-Ligand 2 (PD-L2).
