phs003618 — Immune Determinants of Resistance to PD-1 Blockade in Renal Cell    Carcinoma

<p>We performed an integrated bulk and single-cell transcriptomic analysis of tumors from 102 advanced renal cell carcinoma patients enrolled in a phase II clinical trial of frontline nivolumab (<a href="https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT03117309">NCT03117309</a>) to investigate determinants of response to anti-PD1 monotherapy. The present study includes 112 archival or pre-treatment tumors of clear cell and non-clear cell histologies from 90 patients that underwent bulk RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). For 76 patients, 74 of whom had matched RNA-seq, whole exome sequencing (WES) was also performed on tumor samples as well as matched peripheral blood. Additionally, 19 fresh tumor samples from 17 patients, including pre and post-treatment samples and mixed histologies, were locally cryopreserved and centrally processed for single cell RNA (scRNA-seq) and TCR (scTCR-seq) sequencing. 7 patients had matched scRNA/scTCRseq, RNAseq, and WES. </p>
