Targeting CXCL12 from FAP-expressing carcinoma-associated fibroblasts synergizes with anti-PD-L1 immunotherapy in pancreatic cancer
Open accessAbstract
Significance: Cancer immune evasion is well described. In some cases, this may be overcome by enhancing T-cell responses. We show that despite the presence of antitumor T cells, immunotherapeutic antibodies are ineffective in a murine pancreatic cancer model recapitulating the human disease. Removing the carcinoma-associated fibroblast (CAF) expressing fibroblast activation protein (FAP) from tumors permitted immune control of tumor growth and uncovered the efficacy of these immunotherapeutic antibodies. FAP + CAFs are the only tumoral source of chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 12 (CXCL12), and administering AMD3100, an inhibitor of chemokine (C-X-C motif) receptor 4, a CXCL12 receptor, also revealed the antitumor effects of an immunotherapeutic antibody and greatly diminished cancer cells. These findings may have wide clinical relevance because FAP + cells are found in almost all human adenocarcinomas.

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.
