Pan-cancer evaluation of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes and programmed cell death protein ligand-1 in metastatic biopsies and matched primary tumors

International audience. Tumor immunological characterization includes evaluation of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and programmed cell death protein ligand-1 (PD-L1) expression. This study investigated TIL distribution, its prognostic value, and PD-L1 expression in metastatic and matched primary tumors (PTs). Specimens from 550 pan-cancer patients of the SHIVA01 trial (NCT01771458) with available metastatic biopsy and 111 matched PTs were evaluated for TILs and PD-L1. Combined positive score (CPS), tumor proportion score (TPS), and immune cell (IC) score were determined. TILs and PD-L1 were assessed according to PT organ of origin, histological subtype, and metastatic biopsy site. We found that TIL distribution in metastases did not vary according to PT organ of origin, histological subtype, or metastatic biopsy site, with a median of 10% (range: 0u201370). TILs were decreased in metastases compared to PT (20% [5u201360] versus 10% [0u201340], p < 0.0001). CPS varied according to histological subtype (p = 0.02) and biopsy site (p < 0.02). TPS varied according to PT organ of origin (p = 0.003), histological subtype (p = 0.0004), and metastatic biopsy site (p = 0.00004). TPS was higher in metastases than in PT (p < 0.0001). TILs in metastases did not correlate with overall survival. In conclusion, metastases harbored fewer TILs than matched PT, regardless of PT organ of origin, histological subtype, and metastatic biopsy site. PD-L1 expression increased with disease progression.
