This study assessed the effects of PI3K delta inhibitors in patients with head and neck cancer, finding that it reduced the number of regulatory T cells in tumors and enhanced the cytotoxic potential of tumor-infiltrating T cells. However, high doses of the inhibitors led to immune-related adverse events, indicating the need for alternative dosing regimens to limit toxicity.
Phosphoinositide 3-kinase delta (PI3K delta) has a key role in lymphocytes, and inhibitors that target this PI3K have been approved for treatment of B cell malignancies(1-3). Although studies in mouse models of solid tumours have demonstrated that PI3K delta inhibitors (PI3K delta i) can induce anti-tumour immunity(4,5), its effect on solid tumours in humans remains unclear. Here we assessed the effects of the PI3K delta i AMG319 in human patients with head and neck cancer in a neoadjuvant, double-blind, placebo-controlled randomized phase II trial (EudraCT no. 2014-004388-20). PI3K delta inhibition decreased the number of tumour-infiltrating regulatory T (T-reg) cells and enhanced the cytotoxic potential of tumour-infiltrating T cells. At the tested doses of AMG319, immune-related adverse events (irAEs) required treatment to be discontinued in 12 out of 21 of patients treated with AMG319, suggestive of systemic effects on T-reg cells. Accordingly, in mouse models, PI3K delta i decreased the number of T-reg cells systemically and caused colitis. Single-cell RNA-sequencing analysis revealed a PI3K delta i-driven loss of tissue-resident colonic ST2 T-reg cells, accompanied by expansion of pathogenic T helper 17 (T(H)17) and type 17 CD8(+) T (T(C)17) cells, which probably contributed to toxicity; this points towards a specific mode of action for the emergence of irAEs. A modified treatment regimen with intermittent dosing of PI3K delta i in mouse models led to a significant decrease in tumour growth without inducing pathogenic T cells in colonic tissue, indicating that alternative dosing regimens might limit toxicity.
