The CD155/TIGIT axis promotes and maintains immune evasion in neoantigen-expressing pancreatic cancer
Open accessAbstract
The CD155/TIGIT axis can be co-opted during immune evasion in chronic viral infections and cancer. Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly lethal malignancy, and immune-based strategies to combat this disease have been largely unsuccessful to date. We corroborate prior reports that a substantial portion of PDAC harbors predicted high-affinity MHC class I-restricted neoepitopes and extend these findings to advanced/metastatic disease. Using multiple preclinical models of neoantigen-expressing PDAC, we demonstrate that intratumoral neoantigen-specific CD8+ T cells adopt multiple states of dysfunction, resembling those in tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes of PDAC patients. Mechanistically, genetic and/or pharmacologic modulation of the CD155/TIGIT axis was sufficient to promote immune evasion in autochthonous neoantigen-expressing PDAC. Finally, we demonstrate that the CD155/TIGIT axis is critical in maintaining immune evasion in PDAC and uncover a combination immunotherapy (TIGIT/PD-1 co-blockade plus CD40 agonism) that elicits profound anti-tumor responses in preclinical models, now poised for clinical evaluation.

A combination of scRNA-seq, multiplex IHC, and CyTOF immune profiling showed an inverse relationship between suppressive myeloid populations and CD8 effector T cell infiltration.
“For example, combined scRNA-seq, multiplex IHC, and CyTOF immune profiling demonstrated an inverse correlation between suppressive myeloid populations and CD8 effector T cell infiltrations277.”

The same analyses found signs of systemic CD8 T cell exhaustion, and network analysis pointed to TIGIT as a central immune-suppression node.
“These further identified that CD8 T cells show indications of systemic exhaustion, and a network analysis of potential checkpoint receptor-ligand pairing suggested TIGIT as a key node of immune-suppression.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
