Résumé

Programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1)-targeted immunotherapy is approved for recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (R/M HNSCC) treatment. Although its efficacy correlates with PD-L1 expression, response is limited even among positive cases. We employed digital spatial profiling (DSP) to discover potential biomarkers of immunotherapy outcomes in HNSCC. Fifty prospectively collected, pretreatment biopsy samples from patients with anti-PD-1-treated R/M HNSCC, were assessed using DSP, for 71 proteins in four molecularly defined compartments (tumor, leukocyte, macrophage, and stroma). Markers were evaluated for associations with progression-free (PFS) and overall survival (OS). High beta-2 microglobulin (B2M), LAG-3, CD25, and 4-1BB in tumor; high B2M, CD45, CD4 in stroma, and low fibronectin in the macrophage compartment, correlated with prolonged PFS. Improved PFS and OS were observed for cases with high B2M by quantitative and mRNA. Findings were validated in an independent cohort for PFS (HR, 0.41; 95% confidence interval, 0.19-0.93; In the current study, DSP revealed the positive association of B2M expression in the tumor compartment with immunotherapy outcomes in R/M HNSCC.
