    Abstract: Combinatorial allogeneic NK cell therapy with Pembrolizumab for cholangiocarcinoma; interim report of open label Phase1/2a study Background: There are several things needed to be resolved for successful efficacy when NK cell therapy is applied for solid tumor; improvement of NK cell invasion into tumor, activation and production of a large number of NK cells, etc. Basically, in human, NK cell number is relatively small compared to other immune cells such as T cell and the number becomes severely low when NK cell is obtained from cancer patients. For these reasons, allogeneic NK cell has been used for clinical studies against various cancer types. Recently, we also have finished a phase1 study of allogeneic NK cell therapy for cholangiocarcinoma, enrolling 9 patients at inoperable and no chemotherapy favorable stage due to side effects. Four of nine patients (44%) showed SD (stable disease) after six NK cell injections and no severe AE (adverse event) was found. In this following phase 2a study, to bring out immuno-synergetic effect of NK cell therapy against the inoperably advanced bile duct cancer, we have designed a combinatorial protocol with using Pembrolizumab. Methods: Enrollment of 40 bile duct cancer patients has been finished for a combinatorial study of allogeneic NK cell therapy with Pembrolizumab at two different sites in Korea (ClinicalTrials gov, NCT03937895). Patients were eligible for the enrollment when they were inoperable and no chemotherapy favorable stage due to side effects, and also when they had PD-L1-positive score. For treatment, the most favorable method for highly activated allogeneic NK cell production has been determined from our previous study, resulting that 3x106 NK cells per kg are injected for each dose along with Pembrolizumab injection. Pembrolizumab (200mg) was given every 3 weeks for up to 9 times and NK cell injection was given for up to 18 times during the maximum injection period of Pembrolizumab. Results: Six patients (pts) were first enrolled for the pilot combinatorial study, dosing 6 times of NK cells and 3 times of Pembrolizumab. The result showed no severe AE from the injections. Among the five pts finished the injections, 2 pts showed SD (Stable Disease) and continued the treatment, being enrolled into the Phase 2a in which 34 more pts were enrolled. Among the 20 pts finished 6 NK cell and 3 Pembrolizumab injections (1st RECIST), 65% of pts showed SD. When 12 NK cell and 6 Pembrolizumab injections finished (2nd RECIST), pts had 40% and 20% of SD and PR (Partial remission). Of the 3 pts at 3rd RECIST (18 NK cell and 9 Pembrolizumab), 1 and 2 pts showed SD and PR, respectively. Finding pts experienced AE, a total of 6 AEs has been reported: no treatment-related AE, one grade 3 (Encephalopathy), and five grade 1-2 with common AE. In a recent safety and efficacy study of pembrolizumab alone (10mg/kg, every 2 weeks for up to 2 years) with 28 pts of advanced bile duct cancer showing PD-L1 expression, 17% pts showed PR, 17% pts and 52% had SD and PD (progressive disease), respectively. Although our study is still ongoing, continuing the combinatorial treatment gives rise to PR, suggesting that NK cell therapy with Pembrolizumab shows an immuno-synergetic effect for the cancer. Biomarker experiments with the injected NK cells supports our finding and we will discuss this at presentation.

    Abstract: Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is widely recognized as one of the major bioactive lipids that, with the striking regenerative potential, promote drug-resistance in cancer cells as well as immune evasion in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Primarily driven by apoptotic cell death, PGE2 is thought to elicit wound-healing responses to help provide an immunosuppressive and proliferative niche that supports cancer stem cell repopulation and thereby therapy-resistance. While COX1/2 inhibitors that attenuate PGE2 production have shown promising anti-cancer effects in various (pre-)clinical settings, the gastrointestinal- and cardiotoxicities precluded their development as anti-cancer agents. It is anticipated that specific targeting of PGE2 signaling via its cognate receptors constitutes a safer and potentially more effective approach. Of the receptor subtypes EP1-4, Gα,s-coupled EP2 and EP4 are believed to be directly involved in immunosuppressive effects of PGE2.OCT-598 is a novel, highly potent and selective EP2/EP4 dual antagonist with Ki values of 23 nM and 0.2 nM vs EP2 and EP4, respectively. PGE2 inhibited normal differentiation of human monocytes into CD1a+CD16- dendritic cells under the presence of GM-CSF and IL-4 and promoted differentiation towards CD1a-CD16+ macrophages in vitro. However, EP2/EP4 dual inhibition by OCT-598 reversed this phenomenon to a greater extent than either EP2- or EP4-specific inhibitor alone. In vivo, OCT-598 effected tumor growth inhibition in multiple syngeneic mouse models as a single agent as well as in combination with an immune checkpoint blocker (ICB). Furthermore, the addition of OCT-598 to the lung cancer standard-of-care regimen (anti-PD-1 plus chemotherapy) in TC-1 mouse lung adenocarcinoma model gave rise to complete tumor regression. In conclusion, dual blockade of EP2 and EP4 by OCT-598 is shown to be a compelling strategy to reinforce antitumor effects by thwarting PGE2-mediated therapy resistance and immune evasion.Findings from this study provide a rationale for clinical development of OCT-598 as a therapeutic option for human malignant cancers.

    Abstract: Backgrounds: Live biotherapeutic products (LBPs) emerged as potential therapeutics to overcome the limitation of ICIs. This research shows that CJRB-101, a novel bacterial strain, can improve anti-tumor effects in synergy with pembrolizumab in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Objectives and Methods: Tumors from NSCLC patients (anti-PD-1 refractory and resistant) were transplanted into Hu-CD34-NSG to establish humanized patient-derived xenograft (PDX) mice models. Five models (YHIM-2003, 2004, 2009, 2010 and 2014) were treated with CJRB-101 at low (5 × 107 CFU) or high (109 CFU) doses, or with pembrolizumab (10 mg/kg, i.p., Q5D) or in combination. Tumor growth inhibition (TGI) rate was measured. Tumor microenvironment (TME) was analyzed using multiplex IHC, flow cytometry and single cell RNA sequencing. Ex-vivo assays were performed to validate in silico findings. Results: Tumor in PDX models was unresponsive to pembrolizumab alone, however, in combination with CJRB-101 effectively suppressed tumor growth. The synergy was highlighted in YHIM-2009 where TGI was 10-fold higher (56%) than pembrolizumab group (5%). Immune profiling revealed that macrophages may be responsible for the anti-tumor effects of CJRB-101. IHC showed significantly increased antigen presenting specialized DCs (CD16+CD68−CD11c+) and granzyme B+ CD8+ T cells in the tumor by CJRB-101 compared to pembrolizumab (p & lt;0.01). This suggested that CJRB-101 induced infiltration of cytotoxic CD8 T cells into the tumor nest by enhancing antigen presenting machinery. Trajectory analysis showed that CJRB-101 induced repolarization of M2 to M1 macrophages, characterized by high expression of CXCL9/10. CXCL9+/10+ M1 macrophages were comparatively more abundant in the combination group (23.11%) than the pembrolizumab group (0.91%). CXCL9/CXCL10 expression in macrophages was higher in the CJRB-101 group compared to the pembrolizumab group (p & lt;0.0001). The combination group (10.84%) had a higher relative abundance of CD8+ T cells compared to the pembrolizumab group (1.58%) and higher IFNγ expression in CD8+ T cells compared to the pembrolizumab group (p=0.0152), suggesting that CJRB-101 repolarized macrophages and recruited active CD8+ T cells. Co-culture assays using bone marrow-derived macrophages validated that CJRB-101 drove differentiation towards F4/80+ or MHC II+ expressing M1 macrophage (p & lt;0.0001) and repolarized existing M2 (CD206+) to M1 (p=0.0002). Conclusion: Combination treatment of CJRB-101 with anti-PD-1 showed synergistic anti-tumor effects via repolarization of M2 to M1 macrophages, leading to activation of CD8+ T cells in TME. Especially, CXCL9+/10+ M1 macrophage playing a key role in TGI induced by CJRB-101 in NSCLC models. Findings from this study provided rationale for clinical investigation of CJRB-101.

    Abstract: Heterogeneity in resistant to immunotherapies of tumor microenvironment (TME) has been implicated in immunotherapies to cause immune evasion or drug resistance. This study was conducted to explore the heterogeneity of TME through multiplex IHC, spatial and RNA sequencing analysis. We selected a sample from a lung adenocarcinoma patient without EGFR-activating mutation and expressing 30% of PD-L1. For quantitative analysis by multiplex IHC, various markers including CD4, CD8, FoxP3, granzyme B, CD20 and pan-cytokeratin were stained with 7 different fluorescence dyes, which was imaged with Vectra Polaris (Akoya). For scRNAseq and spatial RNAseq, we used 5’ chromium library kit (10X Genomics) to make library construction. Integrated raw data was generated using Cell ranger, Seurat pipeline and Azimuth package. The tumor area was divided into 16 clusters in which we selected 2 clusters based on CD3/45 expression. There was a noticeable distinction between the two clusters which were defined as the ‘High’ region (CD45highCD3high cluster) and the ‘Low’ region (CD45lowCD3low cluster). By multiplex IHC, percentage of CD8+T cells was higher in the ‘High’ region than in the ‘Low’ region (8.5% vs. 0.8%, respectively). Subsequent analysis of two clusters using spatial and single cell RNA seq, the ‘Low’ region was characterized by increased hypoxia-associated gene expressions including HIF1A, HIF3A and VEGFA. Various immune cells were abundant in the ‘High’ region and CD45 expression level was 11-fold higher in the ‘High’ region compared to the ‘Low’ region. Cytokine/chemokine network analysis via spatial RNAseq revealed that gene expression of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) family-associated factors increased in the 'High' region compared to the ‘Low’ region (TNF, FAS, TRAIL, RANKL and CD40), which is well-known to promotes apoptosis, programmed cell death, or necrosis of certain cancer. Additionally, the ‘High’ region also had elevated levels of the PD-1/PD-L1, CD155, CD122/TIGIT, Siglec10/CD24, LAG3/LAGLS3, and CD47/CD172a axes, suggesting active immune responses. Intriguingly, combined analyses showed that ‘High’ region showed enhanced level of CD44 expression as the leading-edged gene, which suggests the metastatic potential of tumor cells. Furthermore, scRNA analysis confirmed that CD44 expression was mainly higher in macrophages, suggesting that tumor-associated macrophages partially affected tumor cell metastasis in the ‘High’ region. Our finding suggests that understanding the intratumoral immunological heterogeneity of lung adenocarcinoma can help to study the mechanism of tumor heterogeneity by integrated spatial RNAseq and scRNAseq analyses. This type of technique could be applied to understand complex networks of anti-tumor immune activities, drug resistance mechanisms and immunotherapeutic response of cancer.

    Abstract: Introduction: Unmet needs exist for immunotherapy targeting PD-1/PD-L1 in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) due to its suboptimal response. Amivantamab, a bispecific antibody targeting epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and c-Met, has been demonstrated to induce antibody-dependent cytotoxicity and trogocytosis in tumor cells. We hypothesized that combination of amivantamab with pembrolizumab may synergistically enhance antitumor immunity. In this study, we present comprehensive immunomodulatory and synergistic antitumor efficacy of amivantamab and pembrolizumab in humanized HNSCC and LUSC mice models. Methods: EGFR and MET-expressing tumors from a HNSCC and a LUSC patient were transplanted into Hu-CD34-NSG to establish humanized patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models. Tumor-bearing PDXs were treated with vehicle, pembrolizumab (10mpk, Q5D, n=10), amivantamab (10mpk, BIW, n=10), or a combination of pembrolizumab and amivantamab (n=10). Analysis of immune modulatory responses within the tumor microenvironment (TME) using multiplexed IHC, flow cytometry, and single cell RNA sequencing was performed. Results: Combination of amivantamab and pembrolizumab showed a significant reduction of tumor volume (p & lt;0.001) compared to vehicle or single treatment in both models. Additionally, significantly longer survival was observed for combination treated compared to the vehicle treated groups (p & lt;0.0001). Multispectral imaging of tumor indicated that granzyme B-producing CD8+ T cells were significantly increased within the tumor in the combination group (p & lt;0.01). Further analysis of T cell subsets suggested that central memory type CD8+ T cells were increased upon combination treatment. This group also demonstrated significantly higher CEA-tetramer positive CD8+ T cells in the tumor (p & lt;0.01), suggesting that cytotoxic T cells recognizing tumor specific antigens enhanced antitumor immune response. Single cell RNA sequencing analysis of HNSCC showed that an EGFRhighMEThigh cluster was enriched in the TME after pembrolizumab treatment. This subcluster had elevated glycolysis and lactic acid pathway-related genes compared to EGFRlowMETlow cluster. Lactate transporter, MCT4 (SLC16A3) and LDHA genes were dramatically increased in the EGFRhighMEThigh cluster. Elevated lactic acid pathway may lead to immune evasion in the tumor, dampening the activity of pembrolizumab. Interestingly, combination treatment with amivantamab could reduce EGFRhighMEThigh cluster, and could effectively control tumor via creating favorable immune TME. Conclusion: Our study demonstrated combinatorial benefits of amivantamab and pembrolizumab by effectively remodeling TME, providing a preclinical rationale to clinically combine amivantamab and PD-1 blockade treatments.

    Abstract: Background: The IDO is an enzyme responsible for catabolizing tryptophan (Trp) to kynurenine (Kyn). The kynurenine exert important immunosuppressive functions by activating Treg cells and myeloid-derived suppressor cells. YH29407 is a novel IDO1 inhibitor, improved the pharmacodynamics compared to previous IDO inhibitors. Methods: To evaluate antitumor effects and immune profiles of YH29407, YH29407 was dosed at 50 or 100 mg/kg twice daily (B.I.D.) alone or in combination with anti-PD-1 (10 mg/kg, B.I.W., i.p.) and BMS-986205 was dosed at 125 mg/kg once daily (Q.D.) alone or in combination with anti-PD-1 in a MC38 syngeneic tumor model. The antitumor effects during 11 days of administration of YH29407 alone or combinations and BMS-986205 alone or combination in the MC38 model were measured. Measurements were carried out up to day 50 for survival testing. After 3 days of treatment for each condition, immune cell profiles were evaluated by flow cytometry. Results: The YH29407 at dose of 100 mg/kg B.I.D combination treatment group showed the best effects on tumor size reduction. The group constituting & gt;TGI:70% contained 100% (15/15) of the combination treatment group, whereas 15% (2/13) of competitor BMS-986205 combination group were contained. In addition, in the combination treatment group, most tumors showed an aspect of decrease including complete responses of 5 mice. Moreover, there was a complete response in YH29407 alone group but, not observed in BMS-986205 group. According to flow cytometry analysis, the combination treatment group showed higher CD3+ total T cells compared to the vehicle group (*p & lt;0.05). Also, the effector T cells were respectively increased in the combination treatment group than BMS-986205 alone group. Significantly, helper T cells were increased in the combination treatment group against vehicle group (***p & lt;0.001) and BMS-986205 combination group (*p & lt;0.05). In addition, total macrophages were increased in the combination treatment group than BMS-986205 alone group (*p & lt;0.05). On the other hand, M-MDSC were significantly decreased in the combination treatment group than BMS-986205 combination group (*p & lt;0.05). We evaluated the tumor-infiltrating immune cells by immunohistochemistry, infiltrated CD3+ T cells were increased in the tumor of the combination treatment group than the vehicle group and BMS-986205 combination group (both *p & lt;0.05). Likewise, tumor infiltrated CD8+ T cells were increased in the combination treatment group than vehicle group (**p & lt;0.01) and BMS-986205 combination group (*p & lt;0.05). However, dose-response effect or synergistic effect on immune cell profiles between YH29407 50 mg/kg alone or combination and YH29407 100 mg/kg alone or combination were not observed. Conclusion: Taken together, we suggest that YH29407 is the best combination partner with immune checkpoint inhibitors for solid tumor.

    Abstract: Background: The Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is one of the most predominant regulators of cancer metabolism. The AhR exerts important immunosuppressive functions by activating Treg cells and myeloid-derived suppressor cells and repressing CD8+ effector T cells. Here, we propose that a best-in-class AhR inhibitor, DA-4505, improves anti-tumor efficacy via modulation of tumor immune surveillance compared to BAY2416964, an AHR antagonist drug candidate being studied in the clinical phase. Methods: To evaluate anti-tumor effects of DA-4505 and BAY2416964, the two AhR inhibitors were dosed at 10 mg/kg once daily alone or in combination with aPD-1 (10 mg/kg) in surgical and chemotherapy models, and a PDX model (YHIM2004). Tumor volume, relapse, and survival were evaluated, and immune profiles were analyzed with IHC, flow cytometry, and scRNAseq. Results: A significant tumor reduction appeared in the CT26 and 4T1 tumor models after the DA-4505 treatment compared to vehicle group (P & lt;0.05). In contrast, DA-4505 treatment did not induce significant tumor regression compared to vehicle group in tumor-bearing NOG mice, suggesting that anti-tumor effects of DA-4505 were driven by immunologic mechanisms. To evaluate the role of DA-4505 in conjunction with surgery, DA-4505 alone or in combination with anti-PD-1 was given prior to and following resection of the tumors in 4T1 tumor-bearing mice. Survival of mice treated with DA-4505 alone or DA-4505 combined with anti-PD-1 was significantly prolonged after resection compared to aPD-1 treatment group (P & lt;0.05). In addition, there were four mice that did not have a relapse by treating DA-4505 with or without aPD-1 after surgery (4/5). A tumor regression also appeared in the YHIM2004-engrafted humanized mouse study. A tumor reduction was shown by treating DA-4505 alone or in combination with pembrolizumab compared to vehicle group (P & lt;0.05). Next, we co-administered an AhR inhibitor and aPD-1 as a partner to improve the antitumor effects of chemotherapy. The DA-4505 add-on group showed tumor regression when compared with the combination therapy group treated with aPD-1 and chemotherapy (P & lt;0.0001). In addition, a significant increase in survival rate was shown in the group treated with a DA-4505 add-on compared to vehicle group (P & lt;0.001). Analysis of scRNAseq showed that M1 macrophage expressing CCL7 and CCL8 were increased in DA-4505 treated group compared to the vehicle and aPD-1 groups. This suggests that immune modulatory effect of DA-4505 may be due to enhanced recruitment of immune cells into the tumor site by macrophages with high chemotactic activity. Conclusion: The AhR inhibitor DA-4505 demonstrated an improvement in anti-tumor efficacy. In addition, it has shown a synergistic effect when combined with aPD-1. Discoveries from this study provide a preclinical rationale for future clinical implications in solid tumor.

    Abstract: As the representative targeted anticancer drug for colon cancer patients, cetuximab is the EGFR targeted therapeutic antibody and used for treatment of KRAS wild type cancers. Even some patient with KRAS wt gene did not respond cetuximab. However, there is no treatment available for cetuximab-resistant patient group, which is almost 50% of KRAS WT gene holders. Recently, our team identified cetuximab primary resistant related proteins named as mtRTK (mutant receptor tyrosine kinase) by array analysis based cetuximab responder or non-responder colon cancer patient tissues. We investigated mtRTK’s oncogenic potential as a novel anti-cancer target. A large proportion of colon cancer patients (36.2% Caucasian, 56.9% Korean) expressed the mtRTK was identified, using the sequencing analysis of patient samples. Based on these results, our efforts have led to the discovery of WM-S1, mtRTK inhibitor, which is the first mtRTK inhibitor in clinical development. The potent enzyme inhibitor showed a high anticancer activity confirmed in Patient-Derived Cells (PDC) and Patient-Derived Xenograft (PDX) animal models expressing the mutation. In preclinical studies demonstrate that WM-S1 is well tolerated in rats and dogs. Furthermore, WM-S1 has potent anticancer activities for various solid tumor (NSCLC, cholangiocarcinoma, etc.) including activated mtKRAS colon cancer expressing the mtRTK. Currently we are investigating WM-S1 in a phase 1a trial in AUS, which is the first mtRTK inhibitor in clinical development. Meanwhile, the mtRTK inhibitor WM-S1 drives antitumor immunity (with anti-PD-L1) in NSCLC. Combinational approaches with immunotherapy showed that synergistic effect of WM-S1 and anti-PD1 monoclonal antibody, suppressing tumor growth by 75% in anti-PD1 resistance NSCLC-derived humanized mouse model. A phase 1b trial is expected to develop WM-S1 through not only indication expansion but also combination therapy with immuno-checkpoint inhibitors in the USA, AUS and KOR from Q2 2022. In conclusion, mtRTK is a potential oncogenic driver mutation in various solid tumor. A first-in-class anticancer agent WM-S1 targeting mtRTK can be promising therapeutic agents for cetuximab-resistant colon cancer patients regardless of KRAS mutation status and other cancers.

    Abstract: Purpose: Patient-derived cells (PDCs) and organoids (PDOs) are constructed from patient tissue to mimic the biological features of patients. In cancer research, PDC/PDOs have been crucial as they can recapitulate tumor mutations. As heterogeneity between traditional cell lines and the human body leads to clinical trial failure, PDC/PDOs are widely used for predicting the preclinical drug efficacy. The aim of this study is to show that the PDC/PDOs can be used as effective tools for screening novel therapies on non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Experimental design: PDC/PDO models from malignant effusions were established as following. We succeeded the establishment with samples which are positive for malignancy in cytology tests and tumor colony formation. Genotypes are analyzed by Sanger sequencing, Whole exome sequencing, or RNA-sequencing. Cell viability assay was performed using currently approved drugs or drugs in clinical development or their combinations. Results: A total of 46 PDCs and 150 PDOs was established from NSCLC patients, including models harboring sensitizing EGFR mutations, ALK fusions, ROS1 fusions, EGFR exon20 insertion, BRAF V600E, and those harboring various resistance mechanisms to EGFR-TKIs (T790M, C797S/C797G, MET amplification), to ALK-TKIs (G1202R), and to ROS1 TKI (G2032R). Osimertinib-resistant YU-1097 harboring EGFR resistance mutation (E19del/T790M/C797S) revealed sensitivity to BLU-945 (IC50, 108nM), a novel fourth-generation EGFR-TKI. A similar inhibition of cell viability was observed with repotrectinib (IC50, 21nM), a next-generation ROS1-TKI and lorlatinib (IC50, 9nM) in YU-1078 harboring CD74-ROS1, whereas more robust tumor regression was seen with repotrectinib in YU1078-derived xenograft model. Amivantamab, a EGFR-MET bispecific antibody, showed a robust activity in YU-1163 and YUO-036 in vitro and in vivo. YU-1077 harboring ALK G1202R solvent-front mutation showed sensitivity to NVL-655, a next-generation ALK-TKI, with a potency & gt; 10-fold than that of lorlatinib. YUO-010 with MET amplification following osimertinib was sensitive to RGEN 5093-M114, a METxMET bispecific antibody-drug conjugate. Conclusions: PDC/PDO models can be utilized for evaluating activity of novel agents and will accelerate novel drug development in NSCLC.

    Abstract: Introduction: EGFR mutations holds the major targets for drug in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Despite the tremendous study of EGFR mutant (MT) LUAD, the comprehensive interpretation of the heterogeneous character of LUAD harboring EGFR MT remains a key challenge. Here, we investigated the heterogeneity of EGFR MT LUAD and explored the tumor microenvironment (TME) in EGFR MT LUAD. Method: We performed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) from 135 LUAD patients which consist of normal(n=24), EGFR wild (WT)(n=18), and MT(n=93). Also, we used whole genome sequencing and bulk-RNA sequencing to validate with scRNA-seq results. From 898,648 cells, main cell types were classified. To explore the various characteristics of MT LUAD tumor cells, we used two ways: i) We re-clustered epithelial cells populating the normal, WT, and MT. ii) We re-clustered only MT epithelial cells. In each analysis, we identified the tumor character in the clusters using differential expressed genes analysis, lineage tracing, clinical information, mutation, and trajectory analysis. Also, we extracted each main cell type except epithelial cells, and identified subtypes of main cell types. Finally, we revealed the interaction of cellular components in TME. Results: In the analysis of epithelial cells, we identified characteristics of specific EGFR MT by comparing of EGFR WT and MT tumors in clusters with similar biological features. The cluster represented by alveolar type 2 (AT2) known as initiation of LUAD was populating normal, WT, and MT. In this cluster, MT- and WT-associated pathway shared but differently significant between MT and WT in the pathway analysis. The cluster represented by proliferative is mostly comprised tumor cells and we found significantly increased the expression of MDK, CD24 in the MT of the cluster. In the analysis of only MT epithelial cells, 2 of clusters were stage-specific cluster: i) The cluster annotated as early stage cluster, ii) The cluster annotated as advanced stage cluster. Trajectory showed that there is a pseudotemporal continuum, following the stage from early stage cluster to advanced stage cluster. Also, based on the lineage tracing, 2 of clusters revealed lineage-specific clusters: i) The cluster annotated as AT2 was enriched from early stage cells, ii) The cluster annotated as basal cell known as origin of lung squamous cell carcinoma(LUSC) was enriched from advanced stage cells. Psedotemporal ordering of these cluster revealed AT2 cluster transdifferentiate into basal cell cluster which implied the possibility of LUAD to LUSC transition by drug resistance. In the interaction of MT and WT TME, the number of signaling received epithelial cells from myeloid cells, endothelial cells, and fibroblasts as sender increased compared with the interaction of normal. Conclusion: We shed light on the ecosystem of TME according to clinical and biological feature of tumor in EGFR mutant LUAD.
