项目概要/摘要
检查点阻断彻底改变了癌症免疫疗法治疗领域,但许多肿瘤仍然存在
由于在肿瘤微环境中缺乏效应T细胞浸润和活化,因此没有反应。先天
这些“冷”肿瘤的免疫引发已经成为一种治疗策略,
通过刺激的I型干扰素(IFN)产生和下游适应性应答阻断检查点。
最近的努力和正在进行的临床试验集中在STING依赖性抗病毒途径的激活上
以促进肿瘤微环境中IFN的产生。然而,许多肿瘤下调STING,
STING激动剂的治疗作用被认为是通过它们对肿瘤的作用介导的。

我们的实验室最近发现,DNA损伤传感器DNA-PK触发了一种不依赖于STING的DNA

我们已经开发了DNA-PK依赖性抗病毒免疫的合成超激动剂,

英文摘要
Project Summary/Abstract
Checkpoint blockade has revolutionized the field of cancer immunotherapy treatment, but many tumors remain
unresponsive due to lack of effector T cell infiltration and activation in the tumor microenvironment. Innate
immune priming of these “cold” tumors has emerged as a therapeutic strategy for increasing the efficacy of
checkpoint blockade through stimulated type I interferon (IFN) production and downstream adaptive response.
Recent efforts and ongoing clinical trials have focused on activation of the STING-dependent antiviral pathway
to promote IFN production in the tumor microenvironment. However, many tumors downregulate STING
signaling, and the therapeutic effects of STING agonists are thought to be mediated by their effects on tumor-
infiltrating host myeloid cells.
Our lab recently discovered that the DNA damage sensor DNA-PK triggers a STING-independent DNA
sensing pathway (SIDSP) in human cells that potently activates IFN production in response to foreign DNA.
We have developed synthetic superagonists of DNA-PK-dependent antiviral immunity that trigger potent
antiviral responses in human melanoma cells that are unresponsive to STING agonists. We hypothesize that
activation of the SIDSP within tumor cells will provide a unique signal to enhance inflammation within tumors
and will stimulate potent immune responses.
The goal of this proposal is to assess DNA-PK-SIDSP activation as a therapeutic strategy in human
cancer. We will determine how DNA-PK directs distinct outcomes to DNA damage versus foreign DNA, and we
will evaluate the therapeutic potential of triggering the DNA-PK-SIDSP in human tumors, in vitro and in vivo
using cutting edge humanized mouse models. Our studies will uncover fundamental new aspects of the biology
of the SIDSP, together with the first pre-clinical evaluation of DNA-PK activation as a novel cancer
immunotherapy.
