Adoptive Autologous “T cell” Therapies

ImmTACs (Immune mobilizing monoclonal TCRs against cancer)

Target: Surface protein ex: CD19 in NHL - Ab binding is higher affinity vs TCR - Only approx. 10% of targets are surface bound

DARTs (Dual-Affinity retargeting technology) BITEs (Bi-specific T cell engager)

Target: peptide-HLA - Affinity enhanced TCR ex: NY-ESO-1 in Myeloma - Recognizes endogenously processed Tumor Ag

- Greater number of targets available

TIL

Target: peptide-HLA - Biopsy or resection is required

Target: peptide-HLA - Affinity enhanced and fused to anti-CD3 - No cellular manufacturing

Target: Surface protein ex: CD19 in NHL

Increasing the affinity of Tumor-specific TCRs (NY-ESO-1)

•  All T cells undergo Thymic selection (2040-50 TCR variants)

•  This has evolved to remove autoreactive T cells from an individuals repertoire

•  Therefore the circulating repertoire to self antigens (tumor antigens) are of low affinity

•  MHC down regulation •  Local immunosuppressive mechanisms

Page 8: Flow cytometry and Phenotypic/Functional Analysis in Immuno … · 2020-06-10 · Outline • Flow Cytometry Platform Overview • Backround on Adoptive Cell Therapy and T cell Retargeting

•  Are NY-ESO-1 specific T cells Persisting? •  What is the Phenotype of NY-ESO-1 specific T cells with respect to markers of Immune

Dysfunction, Memory and Maturation? •  What is the functionality of NY-ESO-1 specific T cells? •  What is the Phenotype and Function of the Manufactured product prior to infusion?

Protocols for Pentamer Staining combined with ICS

Protocol 1: Pentamer staining BEFORE stimulation

•  Plate cells (1.5X106 cells per well) •  Add pentamer and Incubate for 10 min at RT •  Wash •  Add stimulators and CD107a (or DMSO in unstimulated

samples) and Golgi Plug/Stop, and incubate for 6h at 37°C

•  Wash •  Add surface cocktail and incubate 30 min at 4°C •  Wash •  Fix •  Permeabilize •  Add intracellular cocktail and incubate 30 min at 4°C •  Wash •  Acquire data on flow cytometer

Protocol 2: Pentamer staining AFTER stimulation

•  Plate cells (1.5X106 cells per well) •  Add stimulators and CD107a (or DMSO in unstimulated

samples) and Golgi Plug/Stop, and incubate for 6h at 37°C

•  Wash •  Add pentamer and incubate for 10 min at RT •  Wash •  Add surface cocktail and incubate 30 min at 4°C •  Wash •  Fix •  Permeabilize •  Add intracellular cocktail and incubate 30 min at 4°C •  Wash •  Acquire data on flow cytometer

•  We observed that the frequency of NY-ESO-1 TCR detected and backround levels observed by ICS varied depending on the protocol used

•  Following TCR triggering, the complex gets downregulated •  Pentamer staining triggers the TCR

Conclusion

•  Flow cytometry is a unique technology that gathers phenotypic and functional data on single cells from heterogeneous mixtures such as blood and tissues.

•  Relative distribution of phenotypic and functional subsets

•  Predictive and/or correlative value with markers of clinical disease progression

•  Several factors must be considered when developing a Flow Cytometry panel •  Sample Matrix, Integrity and Stability

•  Clone/Fluorophore Combinations

•  Anticipated Antigen Expression Levels

•  Signal Specificity (Isotype and FMO Controls)

•  Defining optimal duration of stimulation and staining procedures

•  Trending Control
