- W4308397175 abstract "<h3>Background</h3> Diacylglycerol kinases (DGK) convert diacylglycerol (DAG) into phosphatidic acid which limits DAG-induced propagation of T cell activation.<sup>1</sup> T cells predominantly express DGK alpha and DGK zeta isoforms (DGKalpha/zeta),<sup>2</sup> and deletion of either enhances T cell activation and function.<sup>3,4</sup> DGKalpha/zeta are overexpressed in tumor infiltrating T cells and may limit the anti-tumor activity of these cells.<sup>5</sup> Thus, inhibition of DGKalpha/zeta is a potential therapeutic avenue to enhance T cell anti-tumor responses. We demonstrate that inhibition of DGKalpha/zeta with novel dual DGKalpha/zeta inhibitors (DGKi) enhances anti-tumor T cell activity. <h3>Methods</h3> The role of DGKalpha/zeta in T cell activation was studied using wildtype and CRISPR-knockout T cells. <i>In vitro</i> studies assessing the effect of DGKi were conducted using various mouse and human T cell functional assays. T cell exhaustion studies were performed in T cells from lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) clone 13-infected mice.<i> In vivo</i> activity of DGKi was assessed by measuring T cell activation in OT-I mice challenged with OVA-peptides. Efficacy studies and memory rechallenge experiments were performed in the MC38 syngeneic tumor model. <h3>Results</h3> CRISPR knockout studies characterizing the role of DGKalpha/zeta on T cells demonstrated that both isoforms regulate T cell activation and function. DGKi enhanced IFN gamma production by human melanoma-specific T cells stimulated with the weak affinity MART1 antigen. Similarly, treatment of mouse OT-I cells with DGKi enhanced responses to low-affinity OVA-peptides and OT-I-mediated cytotoxicity of MC38-OVA tumor cells. Treatment of exhausted CD8 T cells with DGKi reverted exhaustion caused by chronic LCMV infection, and enhanced T cell function with PDL1 blockade. DGKi rescued cytokine release from T cells suppressed by adenosine, TGF beta or PGE<sub>2</sub> treatment. Oral administration of DGKi resulted in dose-dependent increase in T cell activation in mice. Furthermore, DGKi in combination with anti-PD-1 therapy was efficacious in the MC38 model with complete tumor regressions in treated animals. These mice eradicated tumors upon rechallenge with MC38 cells two months later, demonstrating durable anti-tumor memory responses. <h3>Conclusions</h3> We demonstrate that DGKalpha/zeta negatively regulates T cell activity. Dual DGKalpha/zeta inhibition restores T cell responses to weak tumor antigens, overcomes cell exhaustion, and enhances CD8 T cell cytotoxic activity. <i>In vivo</i> efficacy data demonstrates that DGKi in combination with anti-PD-1 antibody therapy promotes robust anti-tumor responses and generates durable T cell memory. These data support dual DGKalpha/zeta inhibition in combination with anti-PD-1 antibodies as a therapeutic approach for cancer treatment. <h3>References</h3> Mérida I, Avila-Flores A, Merino E.
