Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is considered as an immunogenic cancer. Because not all patients respond to current immunotherapies, we aimed investigate the immunological heterogeneity of RCC tumors. We analyzedthe immunophenotype circulating, tumor, and matching adjacent healthy kidney immune cells from 52 nephrectomy with multi-parameter flow cytometry. Additionally, studied transcriptomic mutation profiles 20 clear (ccRCC) tumors bulk RNA sequencing a customized pan-cancer gene panel. The...

While the abundance and phenotype of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes are linked with clinical survival, their spatial coordination its significance remain unclear. Here, we investigated immune profile intratumoral peritumoral tissue clear cell renal carcinoma patients (n = 64). We trained a classifier to detect from hematoxylin eosin stained slides. Using unsupervised classification, were further classified into cold, hot excluded topographies reflecting lymphocyte localization. The...

The successful use of expanded tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) in adoptive TIL therapies has been reported, but the effects expansion, immunophenotype, function, and T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire infused products relative to tumor microenvironment (TME) are not well understood. In this study, we analyzed samples (

<div><p>The successful use of expanded tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) in adoptive TIL therapies has been reported, but the effects expansion, immunophenotype, function, and T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire infused products relative to tumor microenvironment (TME) are not well understood. In this study, we analyzed samples (<i>n</i> = 58) from treatment-naïve patients with renal carcinoma (RCC), “pre-rapidly expanded” TILs (pre-REP TIL, <i>n</i> 15)...
