Session Description

Session Title: Microbiome: Ready for Prime Time in immuno-oncology?

In less than a decade, several discoveries propelled the gut microbiome from the dark matter to one of the “hallmarks of cancer”. Recent studies revealed that the baseline microbiome composition correlated with the anti-cancer response, the risk of immune-related toxicities and the development of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). This intricate relationship is linked through several mechanisms including microbiome-associated molecular patterns, cross-reactive antigens, bacterial metabolites and immune checkpoint expression.

Furthermore, harnessing the microbiome using fecal microbiota transplantation, probiotics and prebiotics demonstrated that shifting the microbiome composition can enhance immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) response and improve GVHD. In this session, we will focus on the development of user-friendly strategies to profile microbiome composition as a novel biomarker. We will review the ongoing strategies to improve the microbiome composition for patients amenable to ICI treatment or allogeneic stem cell transplantation. In sum, the aim of this session is to understand and review the mechanisms by which bugs can become new cancer drugs.

Session Description

Natural Killer (NK) cells and Type 1 Innate Lymphoid Cells (ILCs) play a critical role in the innate immune response by detecting and destroying neoplastic cells independently of prior antigen exposure. Their therapeutic modulation represents an emerging frontier in cancer immunotherapy.

In this session at the SITC conference Dr. Marco Colonna will provide a detailed overview of ILCs, highlighting their potential in cancer immunotherapy. Dr. Rezvani will present on the engineering of NK cells, discussing the latest strategies and preclinical evidence that underscore the translation of this strategy to the clinic. Dr. Eric Vivier will present on the application of NK cell multi-specific engagers, focusing on their design, mechanism of action, and their evolving role in the targeted treatment of cancer. Each presentation aims not only to educate but also to encourage dialogue on how these innovations can be best integrated and optimized within current clinical frameworks.

This session delves into the critical role of lymphodepletion as a preparatory step in adoptive T-cell therapies. The speakers will explore the foundations, current practices, and future directions of lymphodepletion strategies to optimize the efficacy of T-cell administration in cancer treatment. Dr. Goff will provide an insightful overview of lymphodepletion, sharing her extensive experience with tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and early CAR-T. This talk will highlight key clinical outcomes and lessons learned from pioneering treatments at the National Cancer Institute. Dr. Ruella will discuss the specific applications of lymphodepletion in CAR-T and TCR-engineered T-cell therapies. His presentation will cover the practical aspects of patient preparation, focusing on optimizing treatment efficacy and patient safety. Dr. Paulos will delve into the mechanistic insights and the importance of preclinical models in understanding lymphodepletion. Her talk aims to bridge the gap between laboratory findings and clinical applications, providing a robust scientific foundation. Lastly, the panel discussion will explore emerging strategies and innovations designed to enhance the safety and effectiveness of lymphodepletion. The session will examine potential advancements that could revolutionize how patients are prepared for adoptive T-cell therapies. Attendees will gain a comprehensive understanding of the various facets of lymphodepletion, including current techniques, challenges, and innovative approaches on the horizon. This session is designed for clinicians, researchers, and healthcare professionals involved in the field of cancer immunotherapy, offering critical insights that could shape future treatment protocols.
