Antibody-Independent Antitumor Effects of Cd32A-Chimeric Receptor T Cells: Implications for Breast Cancer Prognosis and Treatment

ABSTRACT Fcγ RIIA (CD32A) and their ligands, including the immunoglobulin Fc fragment and pentraxins, are key players in a variety of innate immune responses. Still unclear is whether additional ligands of CD32A do exist. The objective of this study is to demonstrate that CD32A-chimeric receptor (CR) can be utilized for the identification of CD32A cell surface ligand(s). Among fifteen cancer cell lines tested, CD32A-CR T cells recognized three of breast cancer (BC) including the MDA-MB-468 and one colorectal carcinoma (HT29) in the absence of targeting antibodies. Conjugation of sensitive BC cells with CD32A-CR T cells induced CD32A polarization and down-regulation, CD107 release, and mutual cell eliminationin vitro. Conversely, normal fibroblasts and myoblasts were not affected while normal HUVEC cells promoted CD32A down-regulation. CD32A-CR T cell activity was not inhibited by human IgGs or human serum, but; it was rather enhanced by cetuximab antibody. RNAseq analysis of sensitive vs resistant BC cells identified a fingerprint of 42 genes predicting the sensitivity of BC cells to CD32A-CR T cells and their association with favorable prognostic significance in advanced BC patients. Our data also identify ICAM 1 as a major regulator of CD32A-CR T cell-mediated cytotoxicity. Finally, CD32A-CR T cell administration protected immunodeficient mice from subcutaneous growth of MDA-MB-468 cells in the absence of tumor-specific antibodies. These data indicate that CD32A-CR can be utilized for the identification of (1) cell surface CD32A ligand(s); (2) rational therapeutic strategies to target BC; and (3) novel transcriptomic signatures prognostically relevant for advanced BC patients..
