Academic Editor: Vita Golubovskaya Received: 14 December 2016; Accepted: 18 January 2017; Published: 27 January 2017 Abstract: Urothelial cancer of the bladder, renal pelvis, ureter, and other urinary organs is the fifth most common cancer in the United States, and systemic platinum-based chemotherapy remains the standard of care for first-line treatment of advanced/metastatic urothelial carcinoma (UC). Until recently, there were very limited options for patients who are refractory to chemotherapy, or do not tolerate chemotherapy due to toxicities and overall outcomes have remained very poor. While the role of immunotherapy was first established in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer in the 1970s, no systemic immunotherapy was approved for advanced disease until the recent approval of a programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) inhibitor, atezolizumab, in patients with advanced/metastatic UC who have progressed on platinum-containing regimens. This represents a significant milestone in this disease after a void of over 30 years. In addition to atezolizumab, a variety of checkpoint inhibitors have shown a significant activity in advanced/metastatic urothelial carcinoma and are expected to gain Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval in the near future.

Authors: Konrad Krawczyk1*, Matthew Raybould2, Aleksandr Kovaltsuk2, Charlotte M. Deane2 1 NaturalAntibody, Hamburg, Germany 2 Oxford University Department of Statistics, Oxford, UK *Correspondence to [email protected] Abstract: Recently it has become possible to query the great diversity of natural antibody repertoires using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS). These methods are capable of producing millions of sequences in a single experiment. Here we compare Clinical Stage Therapeutic antibodies to the ~1b sequences from 60 independent sequencing studies in the Observed Antibody Space Database. Of the 242 post Phase I antibodies, we find 16 with sequence identity matches of 95% or better for both heavy and light chains. There are also 54 perfect matches to therapeutic CDR-H3 regions in the NGS outputs, suggesting a nontrivial amount of convergence between naturally observed sequences and those developed artificially. This has potential implications for both the discovery of antibody therapeutics and the legal protection of commercial antibodies. Introduction Antibodies are proteins in jawed vertebrates that recognize noxious molecules (antigens) for elimination. An organism expresses millions of diverse antibodies to increase the chances that some of them will be able to bind the foreign antigen, initiating the adaptive immune response.

  • Intratumoral Immunization: a New Paradigm for Cancer Therapy
    Clinical Cancer Review Research Intratumoral Immunization: A New Paradigm for Cancer Therapy Aurelien Marabelle1, Holbrook Kohrt2, Christophe Caux1, and Ronald Levy2 Abstract Immune cell infiltration in the tumor microenvironment is of prognostic and therapeutic import. These immune cell subsets can be heterogeneous and are composed of mature antigen-presenting cells, helper and effector cytotoxic T cells, toleragenic dendritic cells, tumor-associated macrophages, and regulatory T cells, among other cell types. With the development of novel drugs that target the immune system rather than the cancer cells, the tumor immune microenvironment is not only prognostic for overall patient outcome, but also predictive for likelihood of response to these immune-targeted therapies. Such therapies aim to reverse the cancer immunotolerance and trigger an effective antitumor immune response. Two major families of immunostimulatory drugs are currently in clinical development: pattern recognition receptor agonists (PRRago) and immunostimulatory monoclonal antibodies (ISmAb). Despite their immune-targeted design, these agents have so far been developed clinically as if they were typical anticancer drugs. Here, we review the limitations of this conventional approach, specifically addressing the shortcomings of the usual schedules of intravenous infusions every 2 or 3 weeks. If the new modalities of immunotherapy target specific immune cells within the tumor microenvironment, it might be preferable to deliver them locally into the tumor rather than systemically. There is preclinical and clinical evidence that a therapeutic systemic antitumor immune response can be generated upon intratumoral immunomodulation. Moreover, pre- clinical results have shown that therapeutic synergy can be obtained by combining PRRagos and ISmAbs to the local tumor site.

  • Natural Killer Cell-Based Immunotherapy for Acute Myeloid Leukemia
    Xu and Niu J Hematol Oncol (2020) 13:167 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13045-020-00996-x REVIEW Open Access Natural killer cell-based immunotherapy for acute myeloid leukemia Jing Xu and Ting Niu* Abstract Despite considerable progress has been achieved in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia over the past decades, relapse remains a major problem. Novel therapeutic options aimed at attaining minimal residual disease-negative complete remission are expected to reduce the incidence of relapse and prolong survival. Natural killer cell-based immunotherapy is put forward as an option to tackle the unmet clinical needs. There have been an increasing num- ber of therapeutic dimensions ranging from adoptive NK cell transfer, chimeric antigen receptor-modifed NK cells, antibodies, cytokines to immunomodulatory drugs. In this review, we will summarize diferent forms of NK cell-based immunotherapy for AML based on preclinical investigations and clinical trials. Keywords: Acute myeloid leukemia, Natural killer cells, Immunotherapy, Adoptive NK cell transfer, Chimeric antigen receptor-modifed NK cells, Antibodies, Cytokines Background cells and substances in the immune system play pivotal Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a clinically and geneti- roles in detecting and destroying pathogen-infected or cally heterogeneous disease with unsatisfactory out- neoplastically transformed cells. But they become less comes. Over the last few years, considerable progress has potent in cancer elimination when malignant cells dis- been achieved in the treatment of AML with the devel- play the loss of antigenicity and/or immunogenicity and opment and implementation of new drugs [1, 2].
