Microenvironmental correlates of immune checkpoint inhibitor response in human melanoma brain metastases revealed by T cell receptor and single-cell RNA sequencing
Abstract:Melanoma-derived brain metastases (MBM) represent an unmet clinical need due to central nervous system (CNS) progression as a frequent, end-stage site of disease. Immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI) represents a clinical opportunity against MBM; however, the MBM tumor microenvironment (TME) has not been fully elucidated in the context of ICI. To dissect unique MBM-TME elements and correlates of MBM-ICI response, we collected 32 fresh MBM and performed single cell RNA sequencing of the MBM-TME and T cell recepto… Show more
