项目摘要
PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT
Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death in women. Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) has
the poorest prognosis of all major subtypes of breast cancer. The anticipated success of immunotherapy has not
been seen in TNBC. The role of T-cells in TNBC and immunotherapy has been well-studied but the role of tumor-
infiltrating B-cells (TIL-B) is less well-known. Present in up to 60% of breast cancers, TIL-B are associated with
improved prognosis and response to chemotherapy. Evidence suggests that TIL-B respond directly to tumor
antigens in TNBC. Utilizing single-cell sequencing of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes in TNBC, we have identified
high expression of a low diversity of paired heavy and light chain B-cell receptor segments which is definitive
evidence of clonal selection, suggesting B-cells have undergone affinity maturation and can recognize antigens.
In order to clone antibodies and identify their targets in TNBC, we have successfully sequenced the B-cell
receptors of the most abundant B-cell clones we have identified thus far. Pre-clinical data also suggests an
important role for B-cell antibody production in immunotherapy efficacy. Based on these data, we hypothesize
that B-cells in TNBC recognize tumor-associated antigens and produce biologically relevant tumor-specific
antibodies. To test our hypothesis, we propose the following aims: 1) Discover the role of clonally selected B-
cells/plasmablasts in human TNBC, 2) Characterize the endogenous antibody response against TNBC, and 3)
Evaluate the impact of immune checkpoint inhibition on B-cell receptor diversity and phenotype in human TNBC.
Successful execution of these aims will support a role for B-cells in the anti-tumor immune response and lay the
foundation for development of novel B-cell based therapies and/or biomarkers in TNBC. In addition to advancing
scientific knowledge, this proposal provides training to a physician-scientist. Dr. Downs-Canner is a practicing
breast-surgical oncologist with a background in cellular immunology. Her long-term goal is to combine her clinical
and research expertise to develop an independently-funded research program focused on immunotherapy in
breast cancer. She benefits from two well-established mentors with track records of training clinician-scientists
and an extremely supportive research and practice environment. In order to achieve her long-term goals, the
candidate's proposal includes a structured career development plan and training in: 1) bioinformatics 2) antibody
cloning techniques and development of expertise in: 1) B-cell biology and 2) increasingly complex hypothesis
driven experimental design, execution, and analysis. The proposed plan includes mentored experiential learning,
course work and conference participation, frequent mentor meetings and a gradual increase in research
independence. At the completion of the award period, the candidate will be prepared to apply for independent
funding for her research program.
项目总结/摘要
乳腺癌是妇女癌症相关死亡的主要原因。三阴性乳腺癌(TNBC)
是所有主要乳腺癌亚型中预后最差的。免疫疗法的预期成功并没有
在TNBC看到的。T细胞在TNBC和免疫疗法中的作用已经得到了充分的研究,但肿瘤的作用-
浸润性B细胞(TIL-B)不太为人所知。在高达60%的乳腺癌中存在,TIL-B与
改善预后和对化疗的反应。有证据表明,TIL-B直接对肿瘤反应,
TNBC中的抗原。利用TNBC中肿瘤浸润淋巴细胞的单细胞测序,
成对重链和轻链B细胞受体区段的低多样性的高表达,这是决定性的
克隆选择的证据,表明B细胞已经经历了亲和力成熟,可以识别抗原。
为了克隆抗体并鉴定其在TNBC中的靶点,我们成功地对B细胞
我们迄今为止发现的最丰富的B细胞克隆的受体。临床前数据也表明,
B细胞抗体产生在免疫治疗功效中的重要作用。基于这些数据,我们假设
TNBC中的B细胞识别肿瘤相关抗原并产生生物学相关的肿瘤特异性抗原。
抗体的为了验证我们的假设,我们提出了以下目标:1)发现克隆选择的B-
2)表征针对TNBC的内源性抗体应答,和3)
评价免疫检查点抑制对人TNBC中B细胞受体多样性和表型的影响。
这些目标的成功实现将支持B细胞在抗肿瘤免疫应答中的作用,并为B细胞在抗肿瘤免疫应答中的作用奠定基础。
为开发TNBC中基于B细胞的新疗法和/或生物标志物奠定了基础。除了推进
科学知识,这一建议提供了一个医生科学家的培训。唐斯-坎纳博士是一位执业医生
具有细胞免疫学背景的乳腺外科肿瘤学家。她的长期目标是将联合收割机
和研究专业知识,以开发一个独立资助的研究计划,重点是免疫治疗,

和一个非常支持的研究和实践环境。为了实现她的长期目标,
候选人的建议包括结构化的职业发展计划和培训:1)生物信息学2)抗体
克隆技术和专业知识的发展:1)B细胞生物学和2)日益复杂的假设
驱动实验设计、执行和分析。拟议的计划包括指导体验式学习,
