Glioma patients have poor prognosis because of limited choices of treatment. Therapeutic cancer vaccines have been proved to improve survival in glioma, but resistance is a new challenge for vaccine treatment, and the mechanism is unclear. The applicant found in previous papers that glioma cells induced B7-H4 overexpression in macrophages, and the expression level of B7-H4 is highly correlated with vaccine resistance. Preliminary experiments indicated that B7-H4 protein in macrophages inhibited the expression of ATF3, STAT1 and CXCL9/10, which also resulted in decreased T cell infiltration in glioma model of mouse and was a negative factor of vaccine benefits. Therefore, the applicant hypothesize that B7-H4 inhibits STAT1 transcription by reducing expression of ATF3, resulting in decreased phosphorylated-STAT1 in nucleus, which inhibiting expression and secretion of chemokines 9/10. Thereby, reduced infiltration of T cells in microenvironment will be followed, which ultimately promotes resistance of vaccine treatment in glioma. The follow-up plan of this project will be conducted based on the cells, organoid platform and animal experiments to confirm the role and mechanism of macrophage-derived B7-H4 in secretion of chemokines for T cells and treatment resistance of vaccines. Moreover, the DC vaccine produced by team of the applicant will be used to assess the probability of reversing vaccine resistance when intervening B7-H4 axis. Finally, a model for evaluating clinical benefits from vaccine will be established based on data from clinical trials combining with expression of B7-H4 and clinicopathologic features. This study will provide new evidences for the treatment of cancer vaccines in gliomas.

Study Type
An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes. An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes. Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies. |

Trial ID:
This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries. |
NCT06156150 |
|
Phase
Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use. |
