目前,癌症病人在首次接受免疫治疗三个月后医院会对癌症病人进行评估,如果不出现明显的疾病进展或者很严重的副作用,会继续进行免疫治疗;如果通过影像学等技术发现癌症病人治疗好转一段时间后,肿瘤明显变大,或者出现新的癌症转移,则判断病人出现了获得性耐药,并采取新的治疗策略,如免疫治疗和其他治疗方式联合治疗。At present, the hospital will evaluate the cancer patient three months after the first immunotherapy, and if there is no obvious disease progression or serious side effects, the immunotherapy will continue; if the cancer patient is found through imaging and other techniques After a period of improvement, if the tumor grows significantly, or new cancer metastasis appears, it is judged that the patient has acquired drug resistance, and new treatment strategies are adopted, such as immunotherapy and other treatment methods combined treatment.
基于影像学检测癌症病人是否出现免疫治疗获得性耐药的方法存在一定的缺陷。一方面,该方法具有滞后性,通常发现病人出现获得性耐药时病人的病情已经比较严重,导致病人治疗的不及时;另一方面,免疫治疗的费用比较高,滞后判断会使患者承担不必要的治疗费用。因此传统技术对获得性耐药检测的不及时不仅会对治疗不利,也会导致患者的经济损失。Imaging-based methods for detecting acquired resistance to immunotherapy in cancer patients have certain drawbacks.

It can be seen that all CD8 T cell clones are divided into cancer cell killing CD8 T cells that can recognize tumor antigens, and non-cancer cell killing CD8 T cells that recognize specific influenza virus antigens. The results showed that cancer cell-killing CD8 T cell clones from tumors that did not receive immunotherapy and did not respond after treatment highly expressed depletion signaling genes (HAVCR2, ENTPD1, LAYN, PDCD1, TIGIT, LAG3 and CTLA4) and CXCL13, marked by Exhaustion hi CXCL13 + CD8A + T cells. Cancer cell-killing CD8 T cells from tumors that respond after treatment have low expression of exhaustion signaling genes and high expression of CXCL13, which are labeled as Exhaustion low CXCL13 + CD8A + T cells.

对实施例1中样本的所有的CD4 T细胞克隆和CD8 T细胞克隆的CXCL13和CD8A的表达情况进行分析。结果如图3所示,CD8A和CXCL13的表达量可以有效地鉴定癌细胞杀伤性CD8 T细胞克隆。本实施例中,直接将0.9作为CD8A表达量的阈值,将0.15作为CXCL13表达量的阈值。CD8A的表达量大于或等于0.9且CXCL13的表达量大于或等于0.15,即认为属于癌细胞杀伤性CD8 T细胞克隆,采用这种方式对T细胞克隆进行筛选,准确率可达96.9%。The expression of CXCL13 and CD8A of all CD4 T cell clones and CD8 T cell clones of the sample in Example 1 was analyzed. The results are shown in Figure 3, the expression levels of CD8A and CXCL13 can effectively identify cancer cell killing CD8 T cell clones. In this embodiment, 0.9 is directly used as the threshold value of CD8A expression level, and 0.15 is used as the threshold value of CXCL13 expression level. If the expression level of CD8A is greater than or equal to 0.9 and the expression level of CXCL13 is greater than or equal to 0.15, it is considered to be a cancer cell killing CD8 T cell clone. Using this method to screen T cell clones, the accuracy rate can reach 96.9%.

本实施例对33个患者的9个肿瘤样本的单细胞测序数据以及对应的9个外周血TCR测序数据进行了分析,分别计算了非耗竭性前体T细胞在肿瘤中的癌细胞杀伤性CD8 T细胞的比例,及该群细胞对应的在外周血中具有相同TCR序列的克隆在T细胞中的整体比例,发现外周血中的癌细胞杀伤性CD8 T细胞的比例与肿瘤中的比例显著相关(如图5所示),表明可以通过检测外周血癌细胞杀伤性CD8 T细胞的变化,从而判断肿瘤中的癌细胞杀伤性CD8 T细胞的变化。In this example, the single-cell sequencing data of 9 tumor samples from 33 patients and the corresponding 9 peripheral blood TCR sequencing data were analyzed, and the cancer cell killing CD8 of non-exhausted precursor T cells in the tumor were calculated respectively. The proportion of T cells, and the overall proportion of the clones with the same TCR sequence in the peripheral blood corresponding to this group of cells, it was found that the proportion of cancer cell killing CD8 T cells in the peripheral blood was significantly correlated with the proportion in the tumor (As shown in FIG. 5 ), it shows that the change of the killing CD8 T cells of the cancer cells in the tumor can be judged by detecting the changes of the killing CD8 T cells of the peripheral blood cancer cells.
进一步比较了治疗期间有响应阶段的癌症患者外周血癌细胞杀伤性CD8 T细胞的比例,以及这群细胞在患者出现获得性耐药或无响应阶段外周血中具有相同TCR序列的克隆的整体比例,发现当患者出现获得性耐药时,外周血中的癌细胞杀伤性CD8 T细胞的比例显著降低(如图6所示)。The proportion of cytotoxic CD8 T cells in the peripheral blood of cancer patients in the response phase of cancer patients during treatment was further compared with the overall proportion of clones with the same TCR sequence in the peripheral blood of this group of cells in the phase of acquired drug resistance or non-response in patients, It was found that when patients developed acquired drug resistance, the proportion of cancer-killing CD8 T cells in peripheral blood was significantly reduced (as shown in Figure 6).
并计算了肿瘤当中癌细胞杀伤性CD8 T细胞的4个亚群的比例,发现非耗竭性前体T细胞(包括GZMK阳性前体T细胞和IL7R阳性前体T细胞)在癌细胞杀伤性CD8 T细胞克隆中的比例在治疗后有响应的肿瘤中较高,而在治疗后出现获得性耐药的肿瘤中以及治疗后无响应的肿瘤中比例较低(如图7所示),表明了肿瘤中非耗竭性前体T细胞在癌细胞杀伤性CD8 T细胞中的比例结合外周血癌细胞杀伤性CD8 T细胞的比例变化可以很好地对患者是否对免疫治疗产生了获得性耐药进行早期筛查。And calculated the ratio of the four subsets of cancer cell killing CD8 T cells in the tumor, and found that non-exhausted precursor T cells (including GZMK positive precursor T cells and IL7R positive precursor T cells) The proportion of T cell clones was higher in tumors that responded to treatment and lower in tumors that developed acquired resistance after treatment and in tumors that did not respond to treatment (as shown in Figure 7), indicating that The proportion of non-exhausted precursor T cells in cancer cell killing CD8 T cells in tumors combined with the change in the proportion of peripheral blood cancer cell killing CD8 T cells can be a good early estimate of whether patients have acquired resistance to immunotherapy. screening.
