مستخلص: Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapies used to treat cancer, such as anti–PD-1 antibodies, can induce autoimmune conditions in some individuals. The T cell mechanisms mediating such iatrogenic autoimmunity and their overlap with spontaneous autoimmune diseases remain unclear. Here, we compared T cells from the joints of 20 patients with an inflammatory arthritis induced by ICI therapy (ICI-arthritis) with two archetypal autoimmune arthritides, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Single-cell transcriptomic and antigen receptor repertoire analyses highlighted clonal expansion of an activated effector CD8 T cell population in the joints and blood of patients with ICI-arthritis. These cells were identified as CD38hiCD127 CD8 T cells and were uniquely enriched in ICI-arthritis joints compared with RA and PsA and also displayed an elevated interferon signature. In vitro, type I interferon induced CD8 T cells to acquire the ICI-associated CD38hi phenotype and enhanced cytotoxic function. In a cohort of patients with advanced melanoma, ICI therapy markedly expanded circulating CD38hiCD127 T cells, which were frequently bound by the therapeutic anti–PD-1 drug. In patients with ICI-arthritis, drug-bound CD8 T cells in circulation showed marked clonal overlap with drug-bound CD8 T cells from synovial fluid. These results suggest that ICI therapy directly targets CD8 T cells in patients who develop ICI-arthritis and induces an autoimmune pathology that is distinct from prototypical spontaneous autoimmune arthritides. Editor's summary: Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)–based therapies have transformed cancer treatments but have also been associated with autoimmune side effects. Wang et al. characterized T cell–mediated responses in the joints of patients with inflammatory arthritis who had received anti–PD-1–based ICI therapy (ICI-arthritis). Compared with patients with rheumatoid arthritis or psoriatic arthritis, patients with ICI-arthritis had expansion of activated effector CD38hiCD127 CD8 T cell subset in their joints that had elevated expression of IFN-associated transcripts. In vitro studies confirmed that type I IFN treatment of CD8 T cells could induce phenotypic changes consistent with CD38hiCD127 CD8 T cells. This T cell subset was also detected in a cohort of melanoma patients treated with anti–PD-1 + anti–CTLA-4. These findings provide evidence that ICI therapy can directly influence CD8 T cell responses in individuals who develop spontaneous ICI-arthritis, which is distinct from other autoimmune arthritides. —Christiana N.
