A H3K27M-targeted vaccine in adults with diffuse midline glioma
Nat Med. 2023 Sep 21. doi: 10.1038/s41591-023-02555-6. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSubstitution of lysine 27 to methionine in histone H3 (H3K27M) defines an aggressive subtype of diffuse glioma. Previous studies have shown that a H3K27M-specific long peptide vaccine (H3K27M-vac) induces mutation-specific immune responses that control H3K27M+ tumors in major histocompatibility complex-humanized mice. Here we describe a first-in-human treatment with H3K27M-vac of eight adult patients with progressive H3K27M+ diffuse midline glioma on a compassionate use basis. Five patients received H3K27M-vac combined with anti-PD-1 treat...

NLGN4X TCR transgenic T cells to treat gliomas
CONCLUSION: NLGN4X-TCR-T demonstrates efficacy in a preclinical glioblastoma model. On a global scale, we provide first evidence for the therapeutic retrieval of vaccine-induced human TCRs for the off-the-shelf treatment of glioblastoma patients.PMID:37715782 | DOI:10.1093/neuonc/noad172

The Oncolytic herpes simplex virus type-1 (HSV-1) vaccine strain VC2 causes intratumor infiltration of functionally active T cells and inhibition of tumor metastasis and pro-tumor genes VEGF and PDL1 expression in the 4T1/Balb/c mouse model of stage four breast cancer
Conclusion: These results show that VC2 therapy can improve anti-tumor response associated with a better control of tumor metastasis. improve T cell responses and reduce pro-tumor biomarker gene transcription. VC2 holds promise for further development as an oncolytic and immunotherapeutic approach to treat breast and other cancers.PMID:37388243 | PMC:PMC10303929 | DOI:10.3389/fmolb.2023.1199068

Isocitrate dehydrogenase mutations in gliomas: A review of current understanding and trials
Neurooncol Adv. 2023 May 10;5(1):vdad053. doi: 10.1093/noajnl/vdad053. eCollection 2023 Jan-Dec.ABSTRACTIsocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) is a key enzyme in normal metabolism and homeostasis. However, mutant forms of IDH are also defining features of a subset of diffuse gliomas. In this review, we highlight current techniques targeting IDH-mutated gliomas and summarize current and completed clinical trials exploring these strategies. We discuss clinical data from peptide vaccines, mutant IDH (mIDH) inhibitors, and PARP inhibitors. Peptide vaccines have the unique advantage of targeting the specific epitope of a patient's tumo...

Uncovering transcriptomic landscape alterations of CAN-2409 in < em > in vitro < /em > and < em > in vivo < /em > glioma models
CONCLUSION: CAN-2409 significantly alters the transcriptome both in vitro and in vivo. Comparison of pathway enrichment revealed mutual and differential utilization of pathways under both conditions, suggesting a modulating influence on the cell cycle in tumor cells, and of the tumor microenvironment on the transcriptome in vivo. IL-12 synthesis likely depends on interactions with the tumor microenvironment, and it facilitates CAN-2409 cell killing. This dataset provides potential to understand resistance mechanisms and identify potential biomarkers for future studies.PMID:37228396 | PMC:PMC10203593 | DOI:10.3389/fmed.2023.1140352

Digging the intercellular crosstalk via extracellular vesicles: May exosomes be the drug delivery solution for target glioblastoma?
J Control Release. 2023 Apr 27:S0168-3659(23)00288-2. doi: 10.1016/j.jconrel.2023.04.038. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTGlioblastoma (GBM) is an adult's most aggressive brain tumor. The advances in molecular pathology and cell signaling pathways have deepened researchers' understanding of intercellular communication mechanisms that can induce tumor progression, namely the release of extracellular vesicles. Exosomes are small extracellular vesicles in various biological fluids released by almost all cells, thus carrying various biomolecules specific to their parental cell. Several pieces of evidence indicate that exosomes m...

Live-attenuated Japanese encephalitis virus inhibits glioblastoma growth and elicits potent antitumor immunity
In this study, we investigated the safety of a live attenuated Japanese encephalitis vaccine strain (JEV-LAV) virus as an oncolytic virus for intracerebral injection in mice. We infected different GBM cell lines with JEV-LAV to investigate whether it had growth inhibitory effects on GBM cell lines in vitro. We used two models for evaluating the effect of JEV-LAV on GBM growth in mice. We investigated the antitumor immune mechanism of JEV-LAV through flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry. We explored the possibility of combining JEV-LAV with PD-L1 blocking therapy. This work suggested that JEV-LAV had oncolytic activity a...

A Novel Recombinant Modified Vaccinia Ankara Virus expressing Interleukin-13 Receptor α2 Antigen for Potential Cancer Immunotherapy
CONCLUSION: rMVA-IL13Rα2 virus can successfully infect mammalian cells to express IL-13Rα2 in a biologically active form on the surface of infected cells. To evaluate the efficacy of rMVA-IL13Rα2, immunization studies are planned in murine tumor models.PMID:36999709 | DOI:10.2174/1566524023666230331085007
