Definitions

• the present invention is related to the field of Biotechnology and Immuno-oncology, especially with a method for the expansion and differentiation of T lymphocytes and NK cells with memory phenotype and its use in the adoptive transfer of cells for the therapy of the Cancer.
• Interleukin 2 was the first cytokine to be molecularly characterized and initially showed its ability to stimulate the growth and expansion of T and NK cells (Morgan et al., 1976, Science, 193 (4257): 1007-1008 ).
• IL2 was approved for clinical use in cancer in 1992 but the precise description of the biology of its receptor is still under study (Rosenberg, 2014, J. Immunol., 192 (12): 5451-8; Smith, 2006, Medical Immunology , 1476 (9433): 5-3).
• the systemic administration of IL2 at high doses is used as immunotherapy in cancer and has produced long-lasting responses in melanoma and renal cell carcinoma patients but only in a small fraction of patients. Furthermore, this treatment induces significant toxicity which limits its clinical relevance (Atkins, 2006, Clin. Cancer Res., 12: 2353-2358).
• IL2 interacts with three types of receptors (IL2R) on T lymphocytes and NK cells.
• the low affinity receptor (Kd ⁇ 10 8 M) that only contains CD25 which is the alpha subunit (IL2Ra).
• the intermediate affinity dimeric IL2 receptor (I ⁇ 2Rbg) (Kd ⁇ 10 9 M) which is formed by the CD122 subunits or I ⁇ 2Rb chain and the CD132 or IL2Ry chain and the high affinity receptor (IL2Rc ⁇ y) that contains the three subunits IL2Ra, I ⁇ 2Rb and IL2Ry.
• IL2Rbg and IL2Rc ⁇ y are functional and capable of transducing signals to cells (Stauber et al., 2005, PNAS, 103 (8): 2788-2793; Wang, 2005, Science, 310 (18): 1159 -1 163).
• I ⁇ 2Rb and IL2Ry are present in effector cells of the immune system, while the constitutive expression of the IL2Ra subunit in regulatory T cells (Treg) makes them express IL2Rc ⁇ y and therefore have a preferential use of IL2 in vivo .
• Treg regulatory T cells
• numerous studies have shown that the low efficacy of high-dose systemic IL2 therapy is precisely due to the expansion of Tregs cells, which in turn inhibit the antitumor effector response (Choo Sim et al., 2014, J Clin. Invest., 124 (1): 99-1 10).
• Adoptive cell transfer is defined as the method of treatment in which cells of the immune system are removed from a donor, cultured and / or manipulated in vitro, and then administered to the patient. for the treatment of a disease.
• the cells used in ACT therapy are generally lymphocytes (Gattinoni et al., 2006, Nat. Rev. Immun., 6: 383-393).
• TlLs tumor infiltrating lymphocytes
• CAR engineered T or NK cells to express a specific chimeric antigen receptor
• effector T cells are cells that have had antigen encounters and have a significant decrease in the expression of CD62L, a higher expression of inhibitory markers (PD1, TIM3 and LAG3) and a lower capacity to secrete cytokines. increased propensity to become exhausted cells in vivo (Kishton et al., 2017, Cell. Metab., 26 (1): 94-109; Klebanoff et al., 2005, PNAS, 102 (27): 9571-6). Therefore, in order to achieve better ACT therapies, it is necessary to develop protocols for the culture of T cells that favor the differentiation of lymphocytes towards central memory cells.
• IL2 promotes the in vitro activation and expansion of T lymphocytes and NK cells, which is why it has played a major role in the development of ACT therapies in cancer.
• high concentrations of IL2 were used to expand the TlLs from the tumor extract. TlLs undergo rapid expansion in the presence of IL2 combined with in vitro stimulation of TCR.
• the expanded TlLs are administered to the patient together with a high dose regimen of systemic IL2, this regimen contributes to sustaining the in vivo persistence of the transferred cells (Rosenberg, 2014, J.
• IL2 Despite IL2's role in modulating ACT-associated T cell response, its effect on memory T cell expansion / differentiation has not been fully elucidated. Cells expanded in vitro in the presence of IL2 have strong effector properties, and their persistence and survival in vivo are also affected. IL2 promotes the activation and proliferation of T cells in a unique and effective way, however, it is also responsible for promoting the activation-induced death mechanism (Spolski et al., 2018, Nat. Rev. Immunol., (18) 648- 659). Several studies show that reducing IL2 signaling during in vitro activation could favor the development of memory CD8 + T cells.
• IL2 Reduction of the IL2 signal has been carried out mainly by lowering IL2 concentrations or reducing the exposure time during in vitro culture.
• Other authors have partially substituted the use of IL2 with other cytokines of the common gamma chain family, mainly IL7, IL15 and IL21 (Hinrichs et al., 2008; Blood, 1 1 1 (1 1) 5326-5333; Mueller et. Al., 2008, Eur. J. Immunol., 38 (10) 2874-85; Zeng et. Al., 2005, J. Exp. Med., 201 (1) 139-48; Markley and Sadelain, 2010, Blood, 1 15 (17) 3508-3519; Zhang et. Al., 2015, Clin. Cancer Res., 21 (10): 2278-88). Therefore, the use of IL2 remains a standard strategy in the activation and expansion of T cells in ACT immunotherapies.
• the authors of the present invention found substantial advantages when employing different strategies that preferentially direct the signal through IL2R and during in vitro activation / expansion of T lymphocytes. Said strategies induce an efficient expansion of tumor-specific T cells with a marked central memory phenotype and a greater anti-tumor capacity compared to traditional culture strategies, which employ native IL2 at some point.
