CCL3 predicts exceptional response to TGFβ inhibition in basal-like pancreatic cancer enriched in LIF-producing macrophages

The TGFβ receptor inhibitor galunisertib showed promising efficacy in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) in the phase 2 H9H-MC-JBAJ study. Identifying biomarkers for this treatment remains essential. Baseline plasma levels of chemokine CCL3 were integrated with clinical outcomes i...

description The TGFβ receptor inhibitor galunisertib showed promising efficacy in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) in the phase 2 H9H-MC-JBAJ study. Identifying biomarkers for this treatment remains essential. Baseline plasma levels of chemokine CCL3 were integrated with clinical outcomes in PDAC patients treated with galunisertib plus gemcitabine ( n  = 104) or placebo plus gemcitabine ( n  = 52). High CCL3 was a poor prognostic factor in the placebo group (mOS 3.6 vs. 10.1 months; p

Mechanistically, tumor-derived CCL3 activates Tgfβ signaling in macrophages, inducing their M2 phenotype and Lif secretion, sustaining a mesenchymal/basal-like ecotype.
