Tumor cellular proliferation is associated with enhanced immune checkpoint expression in stage I non–small cell lung cancer

Ki67 is a marker for tumor proliferative activity and is known to have prognostic significance in multiple solid malignancies. We sought to characterize the relationships among Ki67 expression, immune cell infiltration, and immune checkpoint expression in patients with resected non–small cell lung c...

description Ki67 is a marker for tumor proliferative activity and is known to have prognostic significance in multiple solid malignancies. We sought to characterize the relationships among Ki67 expression, immune cell infiltration, and immune checkpoint expression in patients with resected non–small cell lung cancer. Specimens of patients undergoing resection of stage I to III non–small cell lung cancer (1997-2012) were analyzed using tissue microarrays. Proliferative index was quantified as the percentage of malignant cells expressing Ki67. Checkpoints expressed on malignant cells (programmed death ligand 1, B7H3, B7H4, indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1) and lymphocytes (T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin-domain containing 3, V-domain suppressor of T-cell activation, tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 4, lymphocyte activation gene 3, inducible T-cell co-stimulator) were analyzed in intratumoral and stromal compartments, respectively. Immune cell densities were quantified in intratumoral and peritumoral compartments in a representative subset. A total of 190 patients met inclusion criteria. Higher Ki67 expression was noted in squamous cell carcinoma (median 31.4% positive malignant cells vs 15.2% adenocarcinoma, P

Ki67 was positively correlated with intratumoral expression of programmed death ligand 1, B7-H3, and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1, and elevated stromal expression of lymphocyte activation gene 3 and inducible T-cell co-stimulator. Ki67 expression was inversely associated with intratumoral densities of CD57+ and CD4+ cells. The relationship between Ki67 and checkpoint expression was strongest in stage I tumors. Among patients with stage I, increased Ki67 was independently associated with worse overall survival. Increased Ki67 expression is associated with biologically aggressive non–small cell lung cancer, enhanced immune checkpoint expression, and reduced intratumoral immune cell infiltration. These findings were strongest in early-stage disease and warrant further investigation in the context of novel therapeutic agents.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0022-5223</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1097-685X</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1016/j.jtcvs.2019.04.084</identifier><identifier>PMID: 31235357</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>United States: Elsevier Inc</publisher><subject>Aged ; Antigens, CD - analysis ; B7 Antigens - analysis ; B7-H1 Antigen - analysis ; Biomarkers, Tumor - analysis ; Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung - chemistry ; Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung - immunology ; Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung - pathology ; Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung - surgery ; Cell Differentiation ; Cell Proliferation ; Female ; Humans ; immune checkpoints ; immune microenvironment ; Indoleamine-Pyrrole 2,3,-Dioxygenase - analysis ; Inducible T-Cell Co-Stimulator Protein - analysis ; Ki-67 Antigen - analysis ; Ki67 ; Lung Neoplasms - chemistry ; Lung Neoplasms - immunology ; Lung Neoplasms - pathology ; Lung Neoplasms - surgery ; Lymphocyte Activation Gene 3 Protein ; Male ; Middle Aged ; Neoplasm Staging ; non–small cell lung cancer ; Retrospective Studies ; Tumor Microenvironment ; V-Set Domain-Containing T-Cell Activation Inhibitor 1 - analysis</subject><ispartof>The Journal of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 2019-09, Vol.158 (3), p.911-919.e6</ispartof><rights>2019 The American Association for Thoracic Surgery</rights><rights>Copyright © 2019 The American Association for Thoracic Surgery.
