Title Accumulation of MDSC and Th17 Cells in Patients with Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Predicts the Efficacy of a FOLFOX-Bevacizumab Drug Treatment Regimen.

Abstract Text Host immunity controls the development of colorectal cancer, and chemotherapy used to treat colorectal cancer is likely to recruit the host immune system at some level. Athough preclinical studies have argued that colorectal cancer drugs, such as 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and oxaliplatin, exert such effects, their combination as employed in the oncology clinic has not been evaluated. Here, we report the results of prospective immunomonitoring of 25 metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients treated with a first-line combination regimen of 5-FU, oxaliplatin, and bevacizumab (FOLFOX-bevacizumab), as compared with 20 healthy volunteers. Before this therapy was initiated, T regulatory cells (Treg), Th17, and granulocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cells (gMDSC) were increased significantly in mCRC, but only a high level of gMDSC was associated with a poor prognosis. Chemotherapy modulated the Treg/Th17 balance by decreasing Treg and increasing Th17 cell frequency by 15 days after the start of treatment. Increased Th17 frequency was associated with a poor prognosis. FOLFOX-bevacizumab treatment elicited a decrease in gMDSC in 15 of 25 patients and was associated with a better survival outcome. Notably, the gMDSCs that expressed high levels of PD-L1, CD39, and CD73 exerted a robust immunosuppressive activity, relative to other myeloid cells present in blood, which could be reversed by blocking the CD39/CD73 and PD-1/PD-L1 axes. Our work underscores the critical prognostic impact of early modifications in Th17 and gMDSC frequency in mCRC. Furthermore, it provides a clinical rationale to combine FOLFOX-bevacizumab chemotherapy with inhibitors of ATP ectonucleotidases and/or anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies to more effectively treat this disease.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
