摘要
Background Immune checkpoint blockade can provide clinical benefit for patients with advanced cancer. Here, we report durable disease control over many years following PD-L1 blockade through induction of a viral antigen-specific T cell response in an adult patient with recurrent respiratory papillomatosis. Methods Antigen-specific T cell response assays, single cell RNA-sequencing, and RNA-scope was used to study clinical tissues. Results An HPV6 E2-specific T cell clone restricted to HLA-B*55, present at low frequency in the pre-treatment papilloma, significantly expanded after six doses of PD-L1 blockade and remained present and functional at the site of initial response in the larynx as a tissue resident memory T cell for 4 years. An associated reduction in E2 target gene was observed following treatment. Conclusions Although demonstrated in a single exceptional responder, these results highlight that immune checkpoint blockade may induce durable, viral antigen-specific immunity of sufficient magnitude to control disease in patients with nonmalignant disorders.
