BACKGROUND: Immune checkpoint regulators, cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4
(CTLA-4) and the programmed cell death protein-1/programmed death-ligand 1
(PD-1/PD-L1) have emerged as promising new targets for cancer therapeutics. While
tumor expression of PD-L1 has been shown to have objective responses to
anti-PD-L1 immunotherapies, the clinical implications of CTLA-4 expression in
tumor cells or immune cells in the tumor microenvironment is still controversial.
We investigated the expression of CTLA-4 and PD-L1 in human breast tumors and
provided a scoring system for the systematic evaluation of CTLA-4 staining.
METHODS: Immunohistochemical staining for PD-L1 and CTLA-4 expression was
performed on a tissue microarray of 102 cores, which included normal and
neoplastic breast tissues. Neoplastic cores were divided into four groups: Ductal
carcinoma in situ (DCIS), invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC), invasive lobular
carcinoma (ILC) and invasive tubular carcinoma (ITC). PD-L1 and CTLA-4
expressions were scored based on a system which accounted for the percentage and
intensity of positivity and results provided in conjunction with available
clinical and demographic data. RESULTS: Overall, CTLA-4 was over-expressed in 49
of 93 (52.7%) breast tumors. Subcategorically, CTLA-4 was positive in 3 of 8
(37.5%) ductal carcinoma in situ, 40 of 73 (55%) of invasive ductal carcinomas, 4
of 10 (40%) of invasive lobular carcinomas and 2 of 2 (100%) of invasive tubular
carcinomas. All 6 normal breast tissues were interpreted as negative for CTLA-4
staining. Only 4.1% of the invasive ductal carcinomas were positive for PD-L1
reactivity and the remaining carcinomas stained negative. CONCLUSIONS: This study
shows a significant overexpression of CTLA-4 in >50% of breast carcinomas with no
such overexpression of CTLA-4 in benign breast tissues. PDL-1 staining is seen in
only a small number of invasive ductal carcinomas (4.1%). These findings suggest
the need for further investigation of anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-L1 immunotherapies
and their efficacy in the treatment of breast carcinomas with overexpression of
these immune modulators. In addition, the proposed scoring system will facilitate
a more systematic correlation between tumor reactivity and clinical outcome which
can be applied to all intracytoplasmic tumor markers.
