Vitamin D Status Is Associated With Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Efficacy and Immune-related Adverse Event Severity in Lung Cancer Patients: A Prospective Cohort Study. J Immunother 2023; 46:236-243. [PMID: 37184520 DOI: 10.1097/cji.0000000000000469] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2022] [Accepted: 03/29/2023] [Indexed: 05/16/2023]
Abstract
Vitamin D (VitD) is potentially immunomodulatory, so here we aimed to explore the relationships between serum VitD levels, immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) efficacy, and immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] levels were quantified before and after ICI treatment in prospectively enrolled patients with advanced lung cancers. Of 77 enrolled patients, 29 developed 42 irAEs. Baseline 25(OH)D levels of partial response (PRs) patients were significantly higher than non-PR patients (19.39±7.16 vs. 16.28±5.99 ng/mL, P =0.04). The area under the curve of 25(OH)D >15.73 ng/mL to identify PR was 0.63 (95% CI, 0.51-0.76, P =0.047), and baseline 25(OH)D levels >15.73 ng/mL (odds ratio: 2.93, 95% CI, 1.10-7.79, P =0.03) and prior targeted therapy (odds ratio: 0.30, 95% CI, 0.10-0.92, P =0.04) were independent predictors of PR as best efficacy by multivariable logistic regression. With respect to irAEs, baseline 25(OH)D levels were higher in grade 1 irAE patients than in grade 2/3/4 irAE patients (20.07±8.64 vs. 15.22±2.30 ng/mL, P =0.02). However, the area under the curve was only 0.56 (95% CI, 0.42-0.70, P =0.39) for a baseline 25(OH)D of 20.99 ng/mL for predicting irAE occurrence. There was a direct monotonic relationship and U-shaped relationship between baseline 25(OH)D levels and ICI efficacy and irAE occurrence, respectively. Overall survival was significantly different between VitD sufficient, insufficient, and deficient patients (log-rank P =0.01), which remained after adjustment in Cox proportional hazards regression models. Baseline 25(OH)D levels seem to be associated with ICI efficacy and prognosis, it might be helpful to assess the baseline VitD status, and supplementation with VitD might bring some benefit to enhance ICI efficacy and reduce moderate-severe irAEs.

Vitamin D Insufficiency and Clinical Outcomes with Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cell Therapy in Large B-cell Lymphoma. Transplant Cell Ther 2022; 28:751.e1-751.e7. [PMID: 35944603 PMCID: PMC9637764 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtct.2022.08.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2022] [Revised: 07/16/2022] [Accepted: 08/01/2022] [Indexed: 01/29/2023]
Abstract
Vitamin D insufficiency is a potentially modifiable risk factor for poor outcomes in newly diagnosed large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL). However, the role of circulating vitamin D concentrations in relapsed/refractory LBCL treated with CD19-directed chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy (CAR-T) is currently unknown. This was a single-center, observational study that evaluated the association of pre-CAR-T 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OHD) status with 100-day complete response, progression-free survival, overall survival, and CAR-T-related toxicity in 111 adult relapsed/refractory LBCL patients. Vitamin D insufficiency was defined as ≤30 ng/mL in accordance with the Endocrine Society guidelines. The median pre-CAR-T 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentration was 24 ng/mL (interquarile range = 18-34). Vitamin D-insufficient patients (≤30 ng/mL; n = 73 [66%]) were significantly younger than their vitamin D-replete (>30 ng/mL; n = 38 [34%]) counterparts (P= .039). The vitamin D-insufficient cohort was enriched for de novo LBCL as the histological subtype (P= .026) and had a higher proportion of tisagenlecleucel as the CAR-T product (P= .049). There were no other significant differences in the baseline characteristics between the two groups. In vitamin D-insufficient compared to -replete patients, 100-day complete response was 55% versus 76% (P= .029), and 2-year overall survival was 41% versus 71% (P= .061), respectively. In multivariate analysis, vitamin D insufficiency remained significantly associated with 100-day complete response (odds ratio 2.58 [1.05-6.83]; P= .045) and overall survival (hazard ratio 2.24 [1.08-4.66], P= .030). In recipients of tisagenlecleucel, vitamin D insufficiency was associated with significantly lower cell viability of the infused CAR-T product (P= .015). Finally, pretreatment vitamin D insufficiency did not predict for subsequent CAR-T-related toxicity. This is the first report to demonstrate that vitamin D insufficiency is associated with inferior clinical outcomes in CAR-T recipients. Further study into the mechanistic insights of this finding, and the potential role of vitamin D supplementation to optimize CAR-T are warranted.
