PD-L1 expression may be a predictive marker for anti-PD-1 therapeutic efficacy. No standard detection method of PD-L1 expression was available for advanced gastric cancer (AGC), which would be investigated in this study using RNA in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry. Patients (N = 165) with AGC treated at Peking University Cancer Hospital from October 2008 to February 2013 were retrospectively studied. Tissue samples prior to chemotherapy were assessed for PD-L1 expression using RNA in situ hybridization (an RNAscope assay) and immunohistochemistry (IHC). The correlations of PD-L1 expression to patient characteristics and clinical outcomes were statistically analyzed. PD-L1 mRNA signals were located in tumor compartments or the mesenchyme in a brown dotted or clustered pattern, and PD-L1 mRNA expression in gastric cancer was heterogeneous. PD-L1-positive expressions were observed in 33.9% (56/165) and 35.1% (46/131) patients in mRNA level and protein level, respectively. A positive relationship was found between PD-L1 mRNA and PD-L1 protein, and compared to IHC, RNAscope assay could provide an intuitional and quantitative data with potential clinical application. No statistically significant differences occurred between PD-L1 expression and clinical response to chemotherapy, or survival. However, we found that PD-L1 expression was higher in intestinal type than in diffuse type. These findings suggested that the RNAscope assay may be a promising method for patient assessment in gastric cancer clinical trials, which would be illustrated in further study.

ABSTRACT
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) represents a more aggressive and difficult subtype of breast cancer where responses to chemotherapy occur, but toxicity is significant and resistance often follows. Immunotherapy has shown promising results in various types of cancer, including breast cancer. Here, we investigated a new combination strategy where histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) are applied with immune checkpoint inhibitors to improve immunotherapy responses in TNBC.
Testing different epigenetic modifiers, we focused on the mechanisms underlying HDACi as priming modulators of immunotherapy. Tumor cells were co-cultured with human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and flow cytometric immunophenotyping was performed to define the role of epigenetic priming in promoting tumor antigen presentation and immune cell activation. We found that HDACi up-regulate PD-L1 mRNA and protein expression in a time-dependent manner in TNBC cells, but not in hormone responsive cells. Focusing on TNBC, HDACi up-regulated PD-L1 and HLA-DR on tumor cells when co-cultured with PBMCs and down-regulated CD4+ Foxp3+ Treg in vitro. HDACi significantly enhanced the in vivo response to PD-1/CTLA-4 blockade in the triple-negative 4T1 breast cancer mouse model, the only currently available experimental system with functional resemblance to human TNBC. This resulted in a significant decrease in tumor growth and increased survival, associated with increased T cell tumor infiltration and a reduction in CD4+Foxp3+ T cells in the tumor microenvironment. Overall, our results suggest a novel role for HDAC inhibition in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors and identify a promising therapeutic strategy, supporting its further clinical evaluation for TNBC treatment.

Lung adenosquamous cell carcinomas (ASCs) is a rare variant of NSCLC with a poorer prognosis and fewer treatment option than the more common variants. PD-L1 expression is reported to be the predictor of clinical response in trials of NSCLC. In our study, PD-L1 expression was evaluated via immunohistochemistry using a specific monoclonal antibody (SP263), and PD-L1 mRNA expression was evaluated via in situ hybridization. This study included 51 ASCs, 133 lung adenocarcinomas, and 83 lung squamous cell carcinomas (SCC). Similar results were obtained for PD-L1 expression measured at the mRNA and protein level (k coefficient, 0.851, P = 1.000). PD-L1 expression was significantly higher in the squamous versus glandular component of the 36 ASCs in which the components were analyzed separately. The PD-L1 expression rate was similar in the squamous cell component of ASCs and lung SCC (38.89% vs. 28.92%, P = 0.293), so does the adenocarcinoma component of ASCs and lung adenocarcinomas (11.11% vs 13.53%, P = 1.000). PD-L1 expression correlated significantly with lymphovascular invasion (P = 0.016), but not with EGFR, KRAS, and ALK mutations in lung ASCs. Anit-PD-L1 is a promising treatment option in lung ASC cases in which PD-L1 upregulated and EGFR mutations are present.

Abstract
Background
Surrogate biomarkers of efficacy are needed for anti-PD1/PD-L1 therapy, given the existence of delayed responses and pseudo-progressions. We evaluated changes in serum IL-8 levels as a biomarker of response to anti-PD-1 blockade in melanoma and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients.
Patients and methods
Metastatic melanoma and NSCLC patients treated with nivolumab or pembrolizumab alone or nivolumab plus ipilimumab, were studied. Serum was collected at baseline; at 2-4 weeks after the first dose; and at the time-points of response evaluation. Serum IL-8 levels were determined by sandwich ELISA. Changes in serum IL-8 levels were compared with the Wilcoxon test and their strength of association with response was assessed with the Mann-Whitney test. Accuracy of changes in IL-8 levels to predict response was estimated using receiver operation characteristics (ROC) curves.
Results
Twenty-nine melanoma patients treated with nivolumab or pembrolizumab were studied. In responding patients, serum IL-8 levels significantly decreased between baseline and best response (P < .001), and significantly increased upon progression (P = .004). In non-responders, IL-8 levels significantly increased between baseline and progression (P = .013). Early changes in serum IL-8 levels (2-4 weeks after treatment initiation) were strongly associated with response (P < .001). These observations were validated in 19 NSCLC patients treated with nivolumab or pembrolizumab (P = .001), and in 15 melanoma patients treated with nivolumab plus ipilimumab (P < .001). Early decreases in serum IL-8 levels were associated with longer overall survival in melanoma (P = .001) and NSCLC (P = .015) patients. Serum IL-8 levels also correctly reflected true response in 3 cancer patients presenting pseudoprogression.
Conclusions
Changes in serum IL-8 levels could be used to monitor and predict clinical benefit from immune checkpoint blockade in melanoma and NSCLC patients.
