Although head and neck squamous cell carcinoma has traditionally been considered to be a very immunosuppressive, or at least nonimmunogenic, tumor type, recent results from clinical studies of immune checkpoint blockade strategies have led to resurgence in the enthusiasm for immunotherapeutic approaches. Additional strategies for immunotherapy that are under active investigation include enhancement of cetuximab-mediated antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity, tumor vaccines, and engineered T cells for adoptive therapy. All of these studies have early-phase clinical trials under way, and the next several years will be exciting as the results of these studies are reported.

NSD1 mutations deregulate transcription and DNA methylation of bivalent developmental genes in Sotos syndrome

Kevin Brennan, Hong Zheng, Jill A. Fahrner, June Ho Shin, Andrew J. Gentles, Bradley Schaefer, John B. Sunwoo, Jonathan A. Bernstein, Olivier Gevaert

Summary: By studying the transcription and DNA methylation of Sotos syndrome (SS) patients and healthy controls, it was found that mutations in NSD1 lead to dysregulation of transcription and DNA methylation. The gene expression abnormalities observed in SS resemble those seen in certain cancers. The downregulated genes in SS are mainly involved in development and neural synapse function regulation. Additionally, accelerated molecular aging was observed in the transcription and DNA methylation levels of SS patients.

Lymph node colonization induces tumor-immune tolerance to promote distant metastasis

Nathan E. Reticker-Flynn, Weiruo Zhang, Julia A. Belk, Pamela A. Basto, Nichole K. Escalante, Genay O. W. Pilarowski, Alborz Bejnood, Maria M. Martins, Justin A. Kenkel, Ian L. Linde, Sreya Bagchi, Robert Yuan, Serena Chang, Matthew H. Spitzer, Yaron Carmi, Jiahan Cheng, Lorna L. Tolentino, Okmi Choi, Nancy Wu, Christina S. Kong, Andrew J. Gentles, John B. Sunwoo, Ansuman T. Satpathy, Sylvia K. Plevritis, Edgar G. Engleman

Summary: Lymph node metastasis plays an active role in shaping distant metastasis in solid malignancies, and this mechanism involves the evasion of immune cells, colonization in lymph nodes, and subsequent colonization in other tissues. This mechanism is conserved in human cancers and murine cancer models.

Identification of cell types in multiplexed in situ images by combining protein expression and spatial information using CELESTA

Weiruo Zhang, Irene Li, Nathan E. Reticker-Flynn, Zinaida Good, Serena Chang, Nikolay Samusik, Saumyaa Saumyaa, Yuanyuan Li, Xin Zhou, Rachel Liang, Christina S. Kong, Quynh-Thu Le, Andrew J. Gentles, John B. Sunwoo, Garry P. Nolan, Edgar G. Engleman, Sylvia K. Plevritis

Summary: CELESTA is an unsupervised machine learning algorithm that identifies cell types based on markers and spatial information. By applying CELESTA to imaging data of colorectal cancer and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, researchers identified tissue architecture associated with lymph node metastasis and validated their findings through cell-cell interaction analysis.

NFE2L2 Mutations Enhance Radioresistance in Head and Neck Cancer by Modulating Intratumoral Myeloid Cells

Li Guan, Dhanya K. Nambiar, Hongbin Cao, Vignesh Viswanathan, Shirley Kwok, Angela B. Hui, Yuan Hou, Rachel Hildebrand, Rie von Eyben, Brittany J. Holmes, Junfei Zhao, Christina S. Kong, Nathan Wamsley, Weiruo Zhang, Michael B. Major, Seung W. Seol, John B. Sunwoo, D. Neil Hayes, Maximilian Diehn, Quynh-Thu Le

Summary: Radiotherapy is a primary treatment for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), but there is currently no reliable biomarker for predicting radioresistance. This study found that mutations in the NFE2L2 gene are associated with higher rates of locoregional failure in HNSCC patients treated with surgery and (chemo)radiotherapy. NFE2L2 mutations lead to radioresistance through Nrf2 activation, but this can be overcome by the glutaminase inhibitor CB-839.

Targeting KDM2A Enhances T-cell Infiltration in NSD1-Deficient Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Summary: In head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), inactivating mutations in the histone methyltransferase NSD1 disproportionately contribute to tumor development and immune exclusion. Understanding the NSD1-mediated mechanism and targeting the histone-modifying enzyme KDM2A could enhance T-cell infiltration and suppress tumor growth in HNSCC.

Towards multiomic analysis of oral mucosal pathologies

Summary: Oral mucosal pathologies are prevalent diseases worldwide and have medical significance. They can cause disfigurement and greatly reduce quality of life in a confined space with important physiological and social functions. However, treatment for these diseases is often ineffective and there is limited research on them. The host's immune system plays a major role in the development, maintenance, and resolution of oral mucosal pathologies, making a precise understanding of immunological mechanisms crucial for accurate diagnosis, targeted immunotherapy, and personalized treatment. This review highlights recent advancements in multiomic and single-cell approaches that provide comprehensive insights and clinically relevant biological signatures for these pathophysiological processes.

Oral cavity cancer in young, non-smoking, and non-drinking patients: A contemporary review

Quan Tran, Sainiteesh Maddineni, Ethan Hunter Arnaud, Vasu Divi, Uchechukwu C. Megwalu, Michael C. Topf, John B. Sunwoo

Summary: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) in non-smoking and non-drinking individuals is different from traditional head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). The incidence of this type of cancer is increasing, especially in young females, and the tongue is the most affected subsite. Although gene mutations and unique epigenomic profiles have been identified, there is no definitive genetic cause. Other possible causes include chronic dental trauma, microbiome abnormalities, marijuana consumption, and genetic disorders.

Racial Disparities in 30-day Readmissions after Surgery for Head and Neck Cancer

Summary: This study investigates the readmission rate after head and neck surgery within 30 days among different racial groups, and finds that Native Hawaiians and other Pacific Islanders (NHPI) patients have higher readmission rates compared to Asian individuals. This highlights the importance of racial disaggregation in clinical studies.

SMYD3 represses tumor-intrinsic interferon response in HPV-negative squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck

Sunwoo, Carter Van Waes, Jonathan D. Licht, Gordon L. Hager, Vassiliki Saloura

Summary: We identified SMYD3 as a mediator of immune escape in HPV-negative HNSCC. SMYD3 depletion upregulates type I IFN response and antigen presentation genes in HNSCC cells. Mechanistically, SMYD3 regulates the transcription of UHRF1, which binds to H3K9me3-enriched promoters of immune-related genes and silences their expression.

Toll-like Receptor Agonists Are Unlikely to Provide Benefits in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Summary: A meta-analysis of existing clinical trials for recurrent and metastatic head and neck cancer found that Toll-like receptor agonists do not provide additional clinical benefits and do not increase adverse events in the treatment of this cancer. Future clinical trials may need to focus on new agents or drug combinations.

Summary: Researchers propose a machine learning framework called 7-UP that can computationally generate 40-plex CODEX from a standard 7-plex mIF panel by leveraging cellular morphology. They demonstrate the usefulness of the imputed biomarkers in accurately classifying cell types and predicting patient survival outcomes. The imputations of 7-UP generalize well across samples from different clinical sites and cancer types.

Loss of p53-DREAM-mediated repression of cell cycle genes as a driver of lymph node metastasis in head and neck cancer

Summary: In this study, we conducted a large-scale analysis of transcriptomic data to identify molecular pathways that drive metastasis and progression in head and neck cancer (HNC). Our findings suggest that patient survival is influenced by multiple biological processes and the tumor immune and stromal microenvironments, while lymph node metastasis (LNM) is primarily driven by malignant cell plasticity characterized by epithelial dedifferentiation, independent of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT).

Summary: The management of breast cancers in India needs greater emphasis on awareness, early detection, standard pathologic testing, and cost-effective solutions. With standardized management, outcomes similar to those of developed countries can be expected. Additionally, clinical trials aimed at a more diverse population in LMICs like India should be undertaken.
