Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocytes in Biopsy Specimens Obtained 7 Days after Starting Chemoradiotherapy for Rectal Cancer Are Predictors of the Response to Chemoradiotherapy.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) followed by total mesorectal excision surgery is a standard treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) have been reported to be associated with tumor response; however, this remains to be established. We previously reported that histological changes on biopsy specimens obtained 7 days after starting nCRT are strong predictors of response to nCRT. METHODS:The subjects were 208 patients with LARC who received nCRT. TILs on hematoxylin-eosin staining together with immunohistochemical staining of lymphocyte surface markers including CD3, CD4, CD8, and FoxP3 were performed both on the biopsy specimens before and 7 days after starting nCRT. RESULTS:The proportions of patients with high densities of CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, and FoxP3+ cells 7 days after starting CRT were significantly lower than the respective values before starting nCRT (p < 0.0001, p < 0.0001, p = 0.0023, and p = 0.0046). In biopsy specimens obtained before treatment, high-density CD4+ cells and FOXP3+ cells were significantly associated with tumor shrinkage rate. High-density FOXP3+ cells were significantly associated with marked tumor regression. In biopsy specimens obtained 7 days after starting treatment, high-density CD4+ cells were significantly associated with marked tumor regression, tumor regression grade 1, and tumor shrinkage rate. High-density FoxP3+ cells were significantly associated with marked tumor regression and tumor shrinkage rate. CONCLUSIONS:In patients who received nCRT for LARC, the evaluations of immunohistochemical staining for CD4+ and FOXP3+ TILs were more intimately related to histological response to CRT and tumor shrinkage rates in biopsy specimens obtained 7 days after starting treatment than in biopsy specimens obtained before CRT.
