研究概要

CD8+ T 细胞和 AI 驱动的免疫表型,连同临床因素,可以指导接受 nCRT 的 LARC 患者的个体化治疗。nCRT 后改变 TiME 的治疗策略可能有助于减少术后复发。

研究思路结论见上方概要

肿瘤微环境(TME)已成为重要的预后因素。本研究旨在通过结合临床病理参数和TME生物标志物,识别接受新辅助放化疗(nCRT)后手术的局部晚期直肠癌(LARC)患者的预后因素。

通过免疫组化染色分析CD8 + T细胞、CXCR3、CXCL10和α-平滑肌肌动蛋白(α-SMA)。我们还结合了AI驱动的数字病理学来评估空间TME。评估了这些生物标志物、临床病理参数和生存结局之间的关联。

CD8 + T细胞表达、TIL(肿瘤浸润淋巴细胞)(TILs)中CXCR3表达与免疫表型相关。CD8 + T细胞、TILs中CXCR3高表达且呈炎症表型的LARC患者预后显著优于对应患者。在多变量分析中,CD8 + T细胞表达和炎症/免疫排斥表型是复发无生存期(RFS)的显著肿瘤免疫微环境(TiME)生物标志物,但不是总生存期(OS)的显著生物标志物。值得注意的是,无论病理分期如何,即使给予术后化疗,免疫荒漠表型患者预后仍较差(p < 0.001)。

CD8 + T cells, CXCR3, CXCL10, and α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) were analyzed via immunohistochemical staining. We also incorporated AI-powered digital pathology to assess the spatial TME. The associations between these biomarkers, clinicopathologic parameters, and survival outcomes were evaluated.

CD8 + T cell expression, CXCR3 expression in tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), and immune phenotypes were correlated. LARC patients with a high expression of CD8 + T cells, CXCR3 in TILs, and an inflamed phenotype had a significantly better prognosis than their counterparts did. In the multivariate analysis, the expression of CD8 + T cells and the inflamed/immune-excluded phenotype were significant tumor immune microenvironment (TiME) biomarkers for recurrence-free survival (RFS) but not for overall survival (OS). Notably, patients with the immune-desert phenotype had a poor prognosis regardless of pathologic stage, even if postoperative chemotherapy was administered ( p < 0.001).

CD8 + T cells and AI-powered immune phenotypes, alongside clinical factors, can guide personalized treatment in LARC patients receiving nCRT. A therapeutic strategy to modify the TiME after nCRT could help reduce recurrence after surgery.
