Expression data of microRNAs captured by OAA from plasma of NSCLC patients treated with nivolumab

Listed in NCBI GEO

Description

Background

Predictive biomarkers for immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are limited. High-mannose glycans, enriched in tumors, can be selectively captured using OAA1 (recombinant OAA), a novel lectin. This study investigates whether plasma microRNAs (miRNAs) enriched by OAA1 serve as predictive markers of response to anti-PD-1 therapy.

Methods

Pre-treatment plasma samples from 48 NSCLC patients treated with nivolumab were processed using OAA1 lectin columns. Levels of circulating miR-320a, miR-320b, and miR-3613-5p , which were identified as resistance associated miRNAs by microarray, were quantified with and without OAA1 enrichment. Associations with therapeutic response and overall survival were analyzed.

Results: The three miRNAs were significantly upregulated in patients with stable or progressive disease compared to partial responders, but only after OAA1 enrichment. ROC and survival analyses showed improved predictive and prognostic power with OAA1-enriched miRNAs. For example, miR-3613-5p’s AUC improved from 0.837 to 0.897, and its hazard ratio increased from 3.386 to 7.815.

Conclusion: OAA1-captured plasma miRNAs are associated with resistance to nivolumab and poor prognosis in NSCLC. This glycan-based enrichment strategy enhances the clinical value of circulating miRNAs and may complement tissue-based ICI biomarkers.
