Histidine and Immunotherapy Response in Colorectal Cancer

12 maj 2026 uppdaterad av: Jing-yuan Fang, MD, Ph. D

Mechanistic Study of Histidine-mediated Regulation of Antigen Presentation in Colorectal Cancer to Enhance Sensitivity to Immunotherapy

This observational study aims to investigate the role of histidine and its transporter SLC15A3 in modulating the sensitivity of colorectal cancer to immunotherapy. By analyzing the expression of SLC15A3 in tumor/normal colonic tissues from patients with colorectal cancer and assessing serum histidine metabolic levels, the study seeks to identify potential targets associated with therapeutic resistance and explore possible intervention strategies to improve immune checkpoint blockade treatment efficacy.

Grupp / Kohort
Intervention / Behandling
Colorectal cancer patients
Patients with pathologically confirmed colorectal cancer. Colorectal tumor and adjacent normal tissue specimens will be analyzed for SLC15A3 expression, or serum specimen will be analyzed for histidine-related metabolites, or whole blood samples will be analyzed for peripheral blood immune cell functions.
Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) colorectal tumor and adjacent normal tissue specimens will be analyzed for SLC15A3 expression by immunohistochemistry and/or immunofluorescence.
Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) will be separated from whole blood samples and assessed for immune cell phenotype and functional markers by flow cytometry.
ICB responders
Patients with colorectal cancer who previously received PD-1 immune checkpoint blockade and achieved a clinical response. Tumor tissue will be analyzed for SLC15A3 expression, and serum specimen will be analyzed for histidine-related metabolites.
Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) colorectal tumor and adjacent normal tissue specimens will be analyzed for SLC15A3 expression by immunohistochemistry and/or immunofluorescence.
Serum specimens from patients with colorectal cancer will be analyzed for histidine and related metabolites and selected biomarkers by metabolomics and/or ELISA.
ICB non-responders
Patients with colorectal cancer who previously received PD-1 immune checkpoint blockade and did not achieve a clinical response. Tumor tissue will be analyzed for SLC15A3 expression, and serum specimen will be analyzed for histidine-related metabolites.
Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) colorectal tumor and adjacent normal tissue specimens will be analyzed for SLC15A3 expression by immunohistochemistry and/or immunofluorescence.
Serum specimens from patients with colorectal cancer will be analyzed for histidine and related metabolites and selected biomarkers by metabolomics and/or ELISA.
