1032 Strong association between pathological response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy, TILs and modeled CA125 KELIM in ovarian carcinomas: CHIVA trial, GINECO
Introduction/Background* As stated by ESGO-ESMO, there is a need for indicators of chemotherapy efficacy in ovarian carcinoma patients treated in first-line setting (Colombo et al, IGCS, 2020). The pathological chemotherapy response score (CRS) and the modeled CA-125 KELIM during neo-adjuvant chemotherapy were reported as potential markers. Moreover, changes in tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) after neo-adjuvant chemotherapy were reported as a prognostic factor (Leary et al, Cancer Immunol Immunother, 2021). We studied the relationships between changes in TILs, the pathological response (pR) and KELIM in patients treated with neo-adjuvant chemotherapy +/- interval debulking surgery (IDS) from CHIVA phase II trial. Methodology The patients were enrolled in the randomized phase II trial CHIVA (NCT01583322, neo-adjuvant carboplatin-paclitaxel +/- nintedanib, +/- IDS, n=188 patients). KELIM were previously calculated (You et al CCR 2020). The 30 patients with the highest KELIM (very chemosensitive) or the lowest KELIM (poorly chemosensitive) were selected. HE-stained sections from available tissue blocks at baseline and after chemotherapy were analyzed for stromal TILs (sTILs, surface of the tumor stroma occupied by lymphocytes) and intra-epithelial TILs (ieTILs, brisk or non-brisk). The pathological response (pR) was assessed on the most tumoral available tissue block obtained after chemotherapy (good response if extensive fibrous changes with no or isolated tumor cells, or Result(s)* No relationships between KELIM and TILs infiltrates on baseline tumor samples were found. However, strong associations were found between KELIM and TIL infiltrates after neo-adjuvant chemotherapy for sTILs (median KELIM for sTILs 0-5% vs >5%: 0.28 versus 1.32, P Conclusion* High consistency was found between the modeled CA125 KELIM calculated during the first 100 days of neo-adjuvant chemotherapy and the pathological response, consistent with their values as indicators of the tumor chemosensitivity in first-line setting. Moreover, TILs changes were strongly associated with chemosensitivity, opening hypotheses about the mechanisms of chemosensitivity, and immunotherapy opportunity.
