Abstract:
:Interleukin 2 (IL2) was injected peritumorally and intranodally in 36 patients with unresectable squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck enrolled in an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group-sponsored phase Ib trial (EST P-Z388). Groups of 6 patients received escalating doses(200, 2 x 10(3), 2 x 10(4), 2 x 10(5), 2 x 10(6), and 4 x 10(6) units) of IL2 daily 5 times/week for 2 weeks. Tumor biopsies were obtained before and after IL2 therapy. Tumor tissue was provided for histology, and the remaining fresh tissue was divided for snap-freezing in -75 degrees C and for separation of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) and tumor cells. Immunophenotyping of TIL performed on cryostat sections of paired pre- and post-IL2 biopsy tissues showed increases after IL2 therapy in the number of T-cells (P = 0.005), natural killer (NK; CD16+) cells (P = 0.0001), CD25+ cells (P = 0.004), and HLA-DR+ cells (P = 0.001) accumulating in the tumor stroma. In the tumor parenchyma, NK cells (P = 0.0001) and HLA-DR+ cells (P = 0.003) were increased after IL2 therapy. The T:NK cell ratios in the tumor stroma and parenchyma were decreased after therapy, suggesting selective accumulation of NK cells. By flow cytometry, TIL recovered from post-IL2 biopsy tissues were enriched (P < 0.05) in CD3-CD56+ (NK) cells. In situ hybridization with [35S] cDNA probes for cytokines and IL2 receptors indicated that the numbers of cells expressing mRNA for IL2, tumor necrosis factor alpha, IL1-beta, gamma-interferon, transforming growth factor beta, and IL2 receptor p55 or p70 were increased in post-IL2 biopsy tissues as compared to pre-IL2 tissues. Cytolytic activity of TIL isolated from post-IL2 tissues was also increased, as determined in 4-h 51Cr release assays against K562 targets (12 +/- 3 mean lytic units/10(7) cells +/- SEM pre-IL2 versus 46 +/- 13 post-IL2; n = 16) and against autologous tumor (13 +/- 8 versus 68 +/- 26; n = 9). Fresh TIL of one clinical responder showed relatively high levels (195 lytic units) of autotumor cytotoxicity after IL2 therapy versus no activity prior to therapy. In the blood, NK and lymphokine-activated killer cell activity, and percentages of CD3-CD56+ NK cells and of activated (CD25+) T-lymphocytes were increased for all doses of IL2.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
