(89)Zed88082a Pet Imaging To Visualize Cd8(+) T Cells In Patients With Cancer Treated With Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor.
CANCER RESEARCH(2021)
Abstract
Abstract T cell enhancing immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) are effective across several tumor types in a subset of patients. Insights into systemic localization of cytotoxic CD8+ T cells might support early treatment decisions. To address this, we performed a PET imaging study with a zirconium-89 (89Zr) labeled one-armed CD8-specific antibody 89ZED88082A to assess tracer performance, safety, and pharmacokinetics (PK) before and during treatment. Here we report preliminary data on uptake in tumor lesions before ICI. Methods: Patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors that may benefit from ICI are eligible. In part A (imaging before treatment) and part B (imaging before and during treatment), 37 MBq (1 mCi) 89ZED88082A is administered with unlabeled one-armed antibody CED88004S to vary total protein dose. PET images are acquired at up to 4 time points: 1 h, and days (d) 2, 4, 7 post-injection followed by a tumor biopsy for CD8 immunohistochemistry and autoradiography (NCT04029181). Subsequently, patients receive atezolizumab (NCT02478099) or standard of care nivolumab ± ipilimumab. Tumor and lymph node 89ZED88082A uptake are assessed as (geometric mean) maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax), in other organs as SUVmean. Serum 89ZED88082A/CED88004S levels are measured for PK. Tumor response is according to (i)RECIST1.1. Results: For pretreatment imaging results, 32 patients (9 part A, 23 part B) were evaluable; 3 received 4 mg total tracer protein dose, 29 received 10 mg. No tracer infusion-related reactions occurred. Here we show results on d2 PET imaging with 10 mg protein dose, which was considered optimal based on superior 89Zr blood pool activity, clinical feasibility and serum antibody PK with a half-life of 28.6 h. 89ZED88082A uptake was observed within 1 h in spleen, and strong d2 imaging signal was seen across lymphoid organs including spleen (\bar{x}$ SUVmean 47.2), lymph nodes (SUVmax 4.2), bone marrow (\bar{x}$ SUVmean 5.0), small bowel and Waldeyer's ring. 89ZED88082A tumor uptake was seen at all main metastatic organ sites (overall lesion SUVmax 5.5, range 0.6-30.9) and varied across patients (\bar{x}$ per patient SUVmax 5.4, IQR 3.8-7.4). Higher tumor uptake showed a trend with better response (p=0.059) and longer PFS (p=0.033). Tumor uptake was higher in patients with mismatch-repair deficient (dMMR) than MMR proficient tumors (SUVmax 9.3 vs 4.9, p<0.001). Tumors with immune desert vs CD8+ cell stromal/inflamed profile had a \bar{x}$ SUVmax of 4.7 vs 8.3 (p=0.042). In tumor biopsies, autoradiography signal and CD8 staining were linearly associated (p<0.001). Conclusion: 89ZED88082A PET imaging is safe and shows high uptake in normal lymphoid organs. Uptake in tumor lesions is heterogeneous within and between patients. Tumor uptake is higher pretreatment in dMMR tumors and correlated with patient outcome. 89ZED88082A uptake on PET and by autoradiography reflects CD8 expression in tumor biopsies.
