Abstract
Polymorphisms in Fc-gamma-receptor (FCGR) genes as well as killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) and KIR ligand (KIRL) repertoires may influence antitumor effects of monoclonal antibodies (mAb). Here, we systematically analyzed high- and low-affinity FCGR2A and -3A genotypes as well as stimulating and inhibitory KIR/KIRL combinations in 53 neuroblastoma (NB) patients treated by long-term infusion (LTI) of anti-GD2 IgG1 Ab ch14.18/CHO using validated real-time PCR methods. Patients with high-affinity FCGR2A and -3A genotypes showed a higher level of Ab-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) on day 8 after the start of ch14.18/CHO and superior event-free survival (EFS) compared to patients with low FCGR genotypes. Similar observations were made for patients with stimulatory KIR/KIRL haplotype B (combination of KIR genes including activating receptor genes) compared to inhibitory haplotype A (a fixed set of genes encoding for inhibitory receptors, except 2DS4) and stronger effects were found in patients when haplotype B and high-affinity FCGRs were combined. Surprisingly, independent analysis of KIRs showed a major role of activating KIR 2DS2 for high ADCC levels and prolongation of EFS. The greatest effect was observed in 2DS2-positive patients that also had high-affinity FCGR2A and -3A genotypes. In summary, the presence of the activating KIR 2DS2 has a major effect on ADCC levels and survival in NB patients treated by LTI of ch14.18/CHO and may therefore be a useful biomarker in combination with FCGR polymorphisms for Ab-based immunotherapies.
