- W2891982042 abstract "e22012 Background: New treatments are needed to improve outcomes for pediatric gliomas. Immune checkpoint inhibitors are effective therapies in tumors with a high mutation burden that express multiple neo-antigens. However, for pediatric tumors that carry few mutations, there is a need to identify new antigenic targets of anti-tumor immunity. SOX2 is an embryonal stem cell antigen implicated in the biology of glioma initiating cells. Expression of SOX2 by pediatric glial tumors, and the capacity of the immune system in these patients to recognize SOX2, has not been studied. Methods: We examined the expression of SOX2 on paraffin-embedded tissue from pediatric glial tumors (n = 30). The presence of T cell immunity to SOX2 was examined in both blood and tumor-infiltrating T cells using antigen-dependent cytokine and T cell proliferation assays (n = 15). The nature of tumor-infiltrating immune cells in glial tumors (n = 4) was analyzed using single cell mass cytometry. Results: SOX2 is expressed by tumor cells but not surrounding normal tissue in all low grade gliomas (n = 15), high grade gliomas (n = 7), ependymomas (n = 3) and in 60% of oligodendrogliomas (n = 5). T cells against SOX2 can be detected in blood and tumor tissue in 33% of patients. CD4 and CD8 tumor infiltrating T-cells display a higher proportion of PD-1 expression compared to circulating T cells (p < 0.05). Glial CD4 and CD8 T cells are enriched for tissue resident memory phenotype (T RM ; CD45RO + , CD69 + , CCR7 - ) and the expression of PD-1 is primarily on these T RM cells (p < 0.05). A subset of CD4 and CD8 T RM cells also co-express multiple inhibitory checkpoints including PD-L1 and TIGIT. Glial tumors also contain NK cells with reduced expression of lytic granzyme (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Our data demonstrate in vivo immunogenicity of SOX2, which is specifically overexpressed on pediatric glial tumor cells. Our data also suggest that the T RM subset of tumor-infiltrating T cells may be key targets for immune checkpoint blockade, and harnessing tumor immunity will likely require the combined targeting of multiple inhibitory checkpoints. Future efforts to target SOX2 with dendritic cell vaccines combined with immune checkpoint blockade could provide effective tumor immunity and improve outcomes in pediatric brain tumors." @default.
