Deep sequencing of the T cell Receptor reveals common and reproducible CD8+ signatures of response to checkpoint immunotherapy

R. A. Watson, C. Taylor, O. Tong, R. A. Cooper, E. Jungkurth, P. Kumar Sharma, B. Storey, W. Ye, B. Sun, A. de los Aires, F. Matos Santo, I. Nassiri, J. Gilchrist, E. Ieremia, M. R. Middleton, B. P. Fairfax

The paper uses TCR sequencing to identify CD8+ T cell clones associated with response to checkpoint immunotherapy in metastatic melanoma, finding a correlation between peripheral ER clone proportion and clinical outcome.

Sensitivity to Immune Checkpoint Blockade and Progression-Free Survival is associated with baseline CD8+ T cell clone size and cytotoxicity

R. A. Watson, O. Tong, R. A. Cooper, C. A. Taylor, P. K. Sharma, A. Verge de los Aires, E. Mahe, H. Ruffieux, I. Nassiri, M. R. Middleton, B. P. Fairfax

The paper uses single-cell and bulk RNA sequencing to show that CD8+ T cell subset and clone size influence gene expression responses to immune checkpoint blockade, and that pre-treatment cytotoxicity and clonality predict progression-free survival.
