Abstract B054: Immunological control by PARP inhibitors for successful immunotherapy in metastatic ovarian carcinoma
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC) is among the top five causes of cancer-related death in women. Most women with EOC achieve indeed complete remission after primary or interval cytoreductive surgery combined with chemotherapy based on a platinum-taxane doublet. Homologous recombination (HR) defects imposed by germline or somatic BRCA1 DNA repair-associated (BRCA1) or BRCA2 mutations are not only key determinants of platinum sensitivity in EOC patients but also provide a strong rationale for maintenance therapy based on poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors, which is generally associated with improved progression-free survival (PFS). Besides direct cytotoxic and cytostatic properties, PARPi have been shown to mediate multipronged immunostimulatory effects, largely reflecting their ability to inhibit DNA repair in malignant cells and indicating the possibility to synergy with immune-check point inhibitors (ICIs). Here, using multiparametric flow cytometry, multiplex immunostaining, single cells transcriptomics and functional studies in experimental syngeneic BR5-Akt mouse model and EOC tumor samples, we discuss PARPi immunomodulatory activity, with a specific focus on molecular and cellular pathways that can be harnessed to develop superior combinatorial regimens for clinical management. Thus, PARPi might enhance the mutational load of EOCs as consequence of unrepaired DNA damage and DAMPs exposure, favoring T cell infiltration, but also appear to drive robust type I IFN secretion downstream of cyclic GMP-AMP synthase and stimulator of IFN response cGAMP interactor 1 activation. In addition, the combination of PARPi with ICIs positively regulate the balance between adaptive anti-tumor immunity and innate myeloid components and significantly improve the cytotoxic T cell profile as shown in both experimental mice model and HGSOC tumor samples. We surmise that rationally designed combinations of PARPi and immunotherapeutic agents might be critical to unlock immunosuppression in the EOC microenvironment in support of clinical efficacy.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
