In our study, we aimed at evaluating the expression of PD-L1 (as immunotherapies targeting PD-1/PD-L1 has shown promising results in the metastatic setting) and at characterizing the immune context of high-grade pTa and Cis to better understand the role of BCG in relapsing NMIBC. METHODS: We selected 100 FFPE tumors from patients treated for NMIBC at the CHU Bordeaux, with corresponding clinical data. The CPS PD-L1 score (Combined Positive Score) was assessed by an expert pathologist, and transcriptomic analysis were performed using NanoString technology before and after BCG exposure. RESULTS: Only 51 tumors were assessable due to low-quality tissue after pathological review. The patient characteristics are presented in Table 1. Regarding the relapse-free survival rate, we did not find any significant difference with respect to CPS status (p=0.7). In contrast, the OS rate was significantly higher in the CPS-neg group (p=0.003) (Figure 1). Furthermore, we found gene signatures evoking higher tumor cell intrinsic resistance, and an impaired effector phase through decreased T cell activation and/or higher potent myeloid immunosuppressive infiltrate (Figure 2) in relapsing NMIBC. CONCLUSIONS: Our current study provides some hints that targeting PD-1/PD-L1 axis and/or the myeloid immunosuppressive environment may represent an interesting alternative to BCG-therapy, to improve patient prognosis.
