T cell activation requires 2 signals
CTLA4 and PD-1 are checkpoint regulatory molecules
Immunotherapy addresses second checkpoint
Huge success both in clinics and in academia
2011 -
ipilimumab approved by FDA
for melanoma
2013 -
breakthrough of the year
Paradigm shift
Mouse model of tumor rejection – panel of sarcomas
Some mouse sarcomas are naturally
rejected while others grow out
Matsushita et al, Nature 2012
Mouse model of tumor rejection – panel of sarcomas
Hypothesis:
Tumor neoantigen is responsible for rejecion
Matsushita et al, Nature 2012
compare mutational landscape of
regressor vs progressor tumors
Only regressor tumors express spnb2 mutant!
Matsushita et al, Nature 2012
Only regressor tumors express spnb2 mutant!
Spnb2 mutant is also computationally
strong binder to MHC!
Matsushita et al, Nature 2012
Computational filtering allows to go identify neoantigens

Checkpoint blockade works in progressor tumors
aCTLA4/aPD1 treatments “cure” the mice
Gubin et al, Nature 2014
Potential Antigens identified for T3 tumor
Antigen-specific T-cells are present
in tumor even before treatment!
Theraputic vaccination saves the mouse!
Theraputic vaccination saves the mouse!
Independent validation in two additional tumors
Mutational load is predictive of immunotherapy response
Rizvi et al, Science 2015
This is why first successes of
checkpoint blockade are in melanoma!!
It all started in 19th century
Worked in New York Cancer Hospital
(later became a part of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center)
• Noticed that infection with erysipelas
often leads to spontaneous regression of sarcomas
• Started therapeutically infection
patients with inoperable sarcomas

It turns out that Streptococci alone is not enough!
What we refer to as Coley’s toxins is combination of two components:
• Streptococci – gram-positive bacterial infection (no endotoxins)
• Serratia – gram-negative bacteria (endotoxins)
It turns out that Streptococci alone is not enough!
Note resemblance to classical vaccine formulation:
Adjuvant + Adaptive Immunity Target
What we refer to as Coley’s toxins is combination of two components:
• Streptococci – gram-positive bacterial infection (no endotoxins)
• Serratia – gram-negative bacteria (endotoxins)
Streptococci action is sarcoma specific!
Survival
Sarcomas have characteristic genomic landscape
Fusion neoantigens are similar
to Streptococci native protein epitopes!
