Abstract

As traditional strategies for cancer treatment, some chemotherapy agents, such as doxorubicin, oxaliplatin, cyclophosphamide, bortezomib, and paclitaxel exert their anti-tumor effects by inducing immunogenic cell death (ICD) of tumor cells. ICD induces anti-tumor immunity through release of, or exposure to, damage-related molecular patterns (DAMPs), including high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), calreticulin, adenosine triphosphate, and heat shock proteins. This leads to activation of tumor-specific immune responses, which can act in combination with the direct killing functions of chemotherapy drugs on cancer cells to further improve their curative effects. In this review, we highlight the molecular mechanisms underlying ICD, including those of several chemotherapeutic drugs in inducing DAMPs exposed during ICD to activate the immune system, as well as discussing the prospects for application and potential role of ICD in cancer immunotherapy, with the aim of providing valuable inspiration for future development of chemoimmunotherapy.

1 Introduction

In past decades, chemotherapy drugs, have played significant roles in inhibiting tumor growth as the main strategy for treatment of malignant tumors. Further, treatment approaches combining chemotherapy and immunotherapy are among the most effective cooperative strategies and have made considerable contributions to tackling drug resistant tumor cells. Complex immune components in the tumor microenvironment influence immunomodulatory effects on tumors, and may interfere with the therapeutic effects of chemotherapy drugs, and additional chemoimmunotherapy regimens with potential anti-cancer effects have been discovered based on this mechanism. Chemoimmunotherapy is considered a cutting-edge anti-tumor strategy, and several preclinical and clinical studies have demonstrated that some chemotherapy agents can induce ICD. ICD is a form of regulated cell death typically driven by stress, including cell stress and cell death accompanied by exposure, active secretion, or passive release of large numbers of DAMPs, such as calreticulin (CRT), adenosine triphosphate (ATP), heat shock protein (HSP), and high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1). Apoptotic cells release their contents, including DAMPs, which act as hazard signals that produce immunostimulatory effects, including recruitment and activation of various immune cells, such as neutrophils and macrophages. ICD can both effectively activate immune responses and trigger tumor-specific adaptive immunity, which is crucial for stimulating dysfunctional anti-tumor immunity. DAMPs can interact with the immune system, thereby altering immunogenic outcomes, as well as regulating the types of cell death that occur. Unlike the swelling and rupture observed during necrosis, apoptotic cells are rapidly engulfed by macrophages under normal circumstances, which is also considered an immunogenic event. Increasing evidence supports that the adaptive immune mechanisms initiated by malignant cells undergoing ICD are related to the release and detection of DAMPs, which interact with homologous pattern recognition receptors on innate immune cells, leading to immune cell activation and maturation, and consequent effective anti-cancer adaptive immune responses. DAMPs have indispensable roles in cancer treatment by interacting with the immune system, as demonstrated by novel studies into DAMPs exposure/secretion, which have helped to identify new drugs that can induce ICD. ICD-related cellular stressors exploited for clinic treatment include, but are not limited to: 1) therapeutic oncolytic viruses; 2) conventional chemotherapy drugs, such as anthracyclines [doxorubicin (DOX), mitoxantrone (MTX) etc.], and DNA damaging agents [cyclophosphamide (CPA), platinum derivatives, but excluding cisplatin], proteasome inhibitors [bortezomib (BTZ)], and paclitaxel (PTX); 3) targeted anti-cancer drugs (cetuximab, crizotinib, ceritinib, and ibrutinib); and 4) various physical therapies (radiotherapy, external phototherapy, and photodynamic therapy, etc.).

Over the decades, two standards have been established to identify genuine ICD inducers in vivo. First, ICD inducers must show superior therapeutic effect when used to treat tumors in mice with normal immune function compared with those with low immune function. Second, in vitro, cancer cells succumbing to genuine ICD inducers can vaccinate syngeneic immunocompetent hosts and fight subsequent attack with living cancer cells of the same type; however, it is not possible to discriminate genuine ICD inducers and chemotherapeutic drugs with immunostimulatory effects. Hence, the gold-standard for identifying instances of ICD relies more on the second approach in vaccination settings. In recent years, chemoimmunotherapy has attracted increasing attention because of its promising prospects; many successful antitumor treatments can benefit from effective induction of tumor cell ICD. Further, numerous studies have confirmed that some chemotherapeutic agents can induce ICD to enhance tumor cell immunogenicity. In this review, we focus on the main applications of ICD induced by chemotherapy and targeted drugs, and provide an update on progress in anti-tumor therapy with several specific drug types. The aim of this review is to provide valuable insights applicable to cancer immunotherapy.

2 ICD induced by chemotherapy

Gold-standard approaches to prediction of the ICD-inducing capacity of chemotherapeutic agents appear to rely on CRT exposure, ATP secretion, and HMGB1 release by human cancer cells. CRT is a Ca2+ binding protein which mainly localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and has various biological functions, including regulating calcium signal, participating in glycoprotein synthesis, and regulating gene expression. CRT is a recognized “eat me” signal on the surface of tumor cells. It can form a bridging complex with CD91 molecule on the surface of phagocytes to initiate clearance Besides, when cells are in a pre-apoptotic stage, CRT is translocated to the cell periphery by immunogenic dead cells, along with ERp57. Once the CRT/ERp57 molecular complex is co-transferred and exposed on the cell surface, it promotes phagocytosis by dendritic cells (DCs). In addition, CD47 on tumor cell membrane can inhibit the phagocytosis of DC to tumor cells. As the signal of “do not eat me”, when CD47 is blocked, the phagocytosis of macrophages is induced. In the early ICD, CRT was exposed to the cell surface, accompanied by a significant decrease in CD47 expression. The coordination between the two signals can further trigger immunogenicity. These signals must be considered in order to achieve the better anti-tumor response. There is evidence that the molecular activity of ICD induced by anticancer drugs may be related to activation of an ER stress-mediated CRT expression pathway, thus inducing immunogenic apoptosis of cancer cells.

Another sign of ICD is secretion of ATP by dead cancer cells, which is considered to be a ‘find me’ signal. In most cases, secretion of large amounts of ATP by stressed cells is key to extracellular ATP-mediated immunostimulation and related to the functional autophagy response. Extracellular ATP from cancer cells that undergo ICD mediates immune system chemotaxis by binding to purinergic receptor P2Y2 (P2RY2), and promoting the secretion of interleukin 1 β (IL-1β) and interleukin-18 (IL-18) by activating inflammatory corpuscles. After the inflammasome is activated, newly-recruited DC precursors undergo maturation in response to ATP, and their ability to recognize and present tumor antigen is enhanced, thereby initiating adaptive anti-cancer immunity.

In the late stages of apoptosis, when cells are damaged and disrupted, HMGB1 released from nuclei can be detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. HMGB1 is a key nuclear component of non-histone chromatin binding that is passively released by dead cells. HMGB1 can combine with Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) on the cell membrane of DC, and transmit signals to stimulate DC maturation, thus mediating immune stimulation. When DAMPs combine with specific receptors, they can promote and recruit antigen presenting cells, resulting in cross-presentation of apoptosis-associated antigens to CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs), which secrete IL-1β. γδ T lymphocytes, which produce interleukin-17 (IL-17) are also associated with the subsequent adaptive immune response. As major mediators of tumor cell killing, CTLs have vital roles in cancer treatment. Activated CTLs mainly kill target cells through granule exocytosis and Fas ligand (FasL)-mediated apoptosis induction, thus achieving tumor clearance.

Hence, ICD-inducing chemotherapy drugs can exert their effects both through their chemotherapeutic activity and by synergistic tumor cell killing through ICD-activated anti-tumor immune responses, thereby achieving better therapeutic effects (Figure 1; Table1). In addition, interaction between actively or passively released annexin A1 (ANXA1) and formyl peptide receptor 1 (FPR1) also contributes to anti-cancer immune responses to chemotherapy. Further, immunostimulatory cytokines, such as type I interferon (IFN), have important roles in cancer treatment. Active secretion of chemokines, such as chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 1 protein (CXCL1), C-C motif ligand 2 (CCL2), and chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 10 protein (CXCL10), as well as passive release of nucleic acids, are also ICD-related factors driven by chemotherapy.

2.1 Anthracyclines

Anthracyclines can trigger exposure to CRT, as well as HSP70 and HSP90 expression, which involves translocation of these markers to the cell surface, and thus induces anti-cancer immune responses and HMGB1 release. (Figure 2). HSP70 and HSP90 can be transferred to the plasma membrane of dying tumor cells, presented the tumor antigen to CD8+T cells. In addition, HSP70 can also induce NK cell activation and promote DC maturation, thus inducing tumor cell death. Further, there are reports that anthracycline treatment can improve the phagocytosis rate of acute lymphoblastic leukemia tumor cells by DCs in vitro. Some chemotherapeutic agents act by inducing endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, which activates the serine/threonine kinase, protein kinase R-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK) and phosphorylation of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2A (EIF2A, also known as eIF2α). In recent years, some researchers have provided new insights into the fundamentals of ICD. Bezu et al., observed that anthracyclines can induce EIF2A phosphorylation without continuously triggering other manifestations of ER stress, where EIF2A phosphorylation is strongly associated surface exposure of CRT, a characteristic marker of ICD. In addition, Vacchelli et al. reported that ICD induced by anthracyclines depends on the release of Annexin A1 (ANXA1) in cancer cells and formyl peptide receptor 1 (FPR1) during the late stage of DC-driven chemotaxis.

Many anthracyclines can induce ICD, including, but not limited to, DOX, epirubicin, daunorubicin, idarubicin, and MTX. DOX, an anthracycline antibiotic, has been used to treat cancer for more than 40 years and is among the most effective anticancer drugs. Although DOX has a wide range of biochemical effects on tumor cells, it indues significant cytotoxicity in many organs, particularly the heart; the underlying mechanism involves mitochondria damage, iron overload, and perturbed Ca2+ homeostasis, which lead to myocardial damage. Camilio et al. studied the potential of combined treatment of triple-negative breast cancer using the oncolytic peptide, LTX-315, together with DOX, and found that these two reagents can trigger anti-cancer immune responses, thus increasing T cell infiltration and limiting tumor growth. Chemotherapy-induced ICD has proven beneficial immunostimulatory effects on tumor treatment. Loy et al. reported that neoadjuvant chemotherapy with DOX and CPA can increase numbers of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes, which is associated with favorable prognosis in patients with triple-negative breast cancer; however, there was no significant difference in adaptive immune response between animals treated with DOX liposomes alone and untreated control groups in experiments using the highly invasive 4T1 mouse breast cancer tumor model. Gao et al. found that a combination treatment with DOX and the small molecule IDO1 inhibitor, NLG919, significantly inhibited the growth of 4T1 murine breast cancer cells compared with single treatments, which only slightly limited the tumor growth rate. In addition, Zhuo et al. reported that a combination of low dose DOX and icariin acted synergistically to induce ICD, thereby improving the curative effects of ICD in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Although ICD-induced chemotherapy drugs bring new possibilities for tumor immunotherapy, the risk of side effects and systemic toxicity is still a big challenge in this field. In a clinical trial, the use of anthracycline for patients with ERBB2 (formerly HER2)-positive breast cancer in the presence of double ERBB2 blockade will increase the risk of febrile neutropenia and cardiotoxic effects. A major factor limiting the clinical application of anthracyclines is myocardial toxicity. Compared with traditional anthracycline drugs, anthracycline liposome preparations exhibit significantly reduced cardiotoxicity due to the influence of microvascular penetration. Deng et al. invented a liposome, PEG-FA-Lip, to deliver DOX, which can promote DC maturation and secretion of immune stimulating factors, effectively triggering T cell immune responses, and thus improving its therapeutic effect on solid tumors. Monk et al. reported that combining a Toll-like receptor 8 (TLR8) agonist with pegylated liposomal DOX significantly inhibited the growth of ovarian carcinoma in mice with a humanized immune system. Mastria et al. proved that chimeric polypeptide DOX (a nanoparticle DOX preparation) significantly enhanced anti-cancer immunity by stimulating CD8+ T cells and limiting tumor growth, metastasis, and spread. Further, Xia et al. designed a double fluorescence imaging-guided programmed delivery system including DOX and cytosine-phosphate-guanine nanoparticles, which produced good anti-tumor therapeutic effects by regulating the tumor microenvironment and promoting CD4+ and CD8+ T cell infiltration. In addition, because DOX-induced cardiotoxicity is related to oxidative stress, according to this mechanism, several cardioprotective drugs including dexrazoxane, statins and coenzyme Q10 have been proved to be effective in the mouse model. However, due to the lack of large-scale clinical trials, these agents anthracycline should be further studied to reduce the toxicity of anthracycline to the heart. Further, daunorubicin was reported to trigger strong upregulation of CRT on the surface of primary human CD34 acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells, inducing ICD. Idarubicin is a 4-demethoxyanthracycline analog of daunorubicin, which can be used to treat acute myelogenous leukemia. According to data from a retrospective study, high-dose cytarabine plus idarubicin consolidation therapy had strong anti-leukemia effects in patients with fms-like tyrosine kinase (FLT3) wild-type and mutant AML that carried an nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) mutation. During a search for effective drugs against CD105 glioblastoma (GBM), Li et al. determined that idarubicin has strong toxic effects against CD105 GBM cells.

Epirubicin, a type of anthracycline, interferes with DNA and RNA synthesis, and can be combined with other chemotherapeutic drugs to treat various malignant tumors, including postoperative lung cancer and breast cancer. In addition, Li et al. engineered a self-amplified biomimetic nanosystem, in which epirubicin, glucose oxidase, and hemin are encapsulated within the core of ZIF-8 nanoparticles, which significantly induced ICD to promote DC maturation and CTL infiltration into tumor lesions.

MTX, a broad-spectrum anti-tumor anthracycline, has also been shown to induce ICD in melanoma, prostate cancer, osteosarcoma, and mouse colon cancer cells through an eIF2α phosphorylation-dependent mechanism, leading to anti-cancer immune responses (Figure 2).

2.2 Platinum drugs

Chemotherapy combined with oxaliplatin (OXA) remains among the main treatments for most patients with CRC (colorectal cancer). Unlike cisplatin, OXA alone or combined with antimetabolite agents (trifluridine/tipiracil) can stimulate CRT to transfer from the ER to the cell surface in mouse colon cancer cells, thus inducing immunogenic death. To improve anti-tumor efficacy, resistance of CRC cells to OXA can be avoided by inhibiting the serine/threonine kinase, ATR. Further, in mouse hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines, oxaliplatin can significantly increase the levels of ICD-related markers in the supernatant, and recruit immune cells to the tumor by inducing T cell accumulation, thus effectively inhibiting tumor growth. Similarly, levels of HMGB1 and ATP are also significantly upregulated in human hepatocellular carcinoma cells. Comparable results were reported in murine glioma cells (KR158), murine lung carcinoma (LLC), murine mammary adenocarcinoma (TSA), and human (Panc-1) and murine (Pan02) pancreatic tumor cell lines.

Groza et al. studied the auxiliary role of “bacterial ghosts” (i.e., empty envelopes of Gram-negative bacteria) in OXA chemotherapy, and combined them with OXA to trigger anti-tumor T cell responses against CT26 murine colon cancer cells and establish long-term immune memory. Kanekiyo et al. conducted therapy based on combination of five HLA-A*24:02-restricted peptide vaccines with OXA, which caused peptide-specific IgG responses and improved overall survival (OS) of patients with CRC. In the latest research, liposomal OXA prodrugs loaded with metformin were demonstrated to enhance cancer immunotherapy, the alleviation of tumor hypoxia by metformin helps OXA induce ICD in mouse colorectal tumor cells. Zhou et al. reported a type of prodrug vesicle, which integrated an OXA prodrug and a PEGylated photosensitizer, and further improved the curative effect of anticancer immunotherapy by inducing ICD and blocking CD47, to promote antigen presentation by DCs in mouse colorectal tumors, breast tumors, and melanoma cells. Guo et al. developed a nanoparticle preparation containing OXA derivatives and folinic acid to induce ICD and inhibit tumor growth; use of the preparation in combination with nano-preparations containing active metabolites of 5-Fu synergistically increased its curative effect on CRC and hepatocellular carcinoma in mouse models, due to reactive oxygen species generation. Further, Wang et al. found that, when combined with a low dose of OXA, thiostrepton, an antibiotic produced by Streptomyces, can enhance anti-cancer immunogenicity by promoting the release of ATP and HMGB1, as well as CRT exposure, in mouse fibrosarcoma cells. (Figure 2).

Notably, although cisplatin and OXA show considerable structural overlap, cisplatin cannot induce genuine ICD. Cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (better known as cisplatin or CDDP) is a platinum drug that is widely used for treatment of malignant tumors and exhibits significant therapeutic effects against testicular germ cell, colorectal, ovarian, bladder, lung, and head and neck cancers; however, it differs from OXA in the levels of CRT exposure it induces, and cannot activate PERK-dependent eIF2α phosphorylation. In experiments where CDDP and OXA were each applied to mouse hepatoma cells, there was no significant difference between CDDP and the control group, demonstrating that ICD was not effectively induced. Another study reported that treatment of mouse LLC lung cancer cells with CDDP (2.5 μM) could induce CRT exposure and ATP release, although it could not induce HMGB1 release. Further, Sun et al. reported that no ICD induction was found after treatment of LLC cells with CDDP (20 μM) for 24 h; however, in some specific cases, CDDP combined with ischemia and reperfusion injury can lead to ICD in murine LLC cells. Further, there are reports that CDDP can induce CXCL10 expression in melanoma cells, compared with untreated controls. In addition to research on the effects of these two drugs in inducing ICD, there is evidence that carboplatin can induce the release of HMGB1 and CRT in Colon26 and MC38 cells.

The toxicity of OXA is still one of the limitations of clinical application. Although OXA is less ototoxic and nephrotoxic than cisplatin, it still causes various adverse effects including neurotoxicity which is difficult to prevent.. According to the current results of clinical trials, nodrug can be a gold standard to prevent the neurotoxicity of OXA and the preventive measure depends on the dose adjustment of the OXA. In addition, liposome encapsulation is also an effective strategy to reduce the damage to normal tissues. In addition to antibody-drug conjugate, the peptide-drug conjugates can improve efficacy and reduce side effects for cancer treatment in cell and animal studies.

2.3 Proteasome inhibitors

BTZ is a specific inhibitor of the 26S proteasome subunit, which induces human tumor cell apoptosis through various mechanisms, exhibits good clinical activity in multiple myeloma, lymphoma, breast cancer, lung cancer, and CRC, and can induce ICD. In myeloma (U266 and CAG), breast cancer (MCF-7), and mantle cell lymphoma (NCEB-1) cell lines, BTZ significantly induced cell surface expression of HSP90 and mediated DC maturation, thus enhancing tumor cell immunogenicity. BTZ triggers ICD in multiple myeloma cells by activating the cGAS/STING pathway and producing type I IFN, which can be significantly enhanced by STING agonists. In recent years, researchers have explored numerous strategies to improve BTZ-mediated ICD (Figure 3). In research related to nano-drugs, smart pH-responsive polyhydrazine/BTZ nanoparticles were more effective in inducing ICD of 4T1 cells and inhibiting lung metastasis than BTZ alone. BTZ combined with radiotherapy can enhance colon cancer cell sensitivity to apoptosis, which can significantly increase the killing effect of tumor-specific CD8⁺ T cells on colon cancer cells, thus effectively inducing anti-tumor immunity. Recent research demonstrated that cell surface translocation of CRT was enhanced by a combination of BTZ and geranylgeranyl diphosphate synthase inhibitor, leading to enhanced immunogenicity. Carfilzomib is also a proteasome inhibitor and CRT exposure was detected in human multiple myeloma cells (MM.1S, U266, H929) treated with carfilzomib, while immunogenicity was enhanced when carfilzomib was combined with chloroquine. In the aspect of side effect, compared with other chemotherapy agents, BTZ has safer efficacy and controllable toxicity. Subcutaneous administration of bortezomib, as an alternative to intravenous administration, significantly reduced the probability of peripheral neuropathy while maintaining efficacy.

2.4 Alkylating agents

Cyclophosphamide (CPA) is a drug used for a wide range of cancer treatments, and has remarkable curative effects on lymphoma and solid tumors, including breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and bone and soft tissue sarcoma. Further, the therapeutic effects of CPA can be achieved by stimulating immune cells to generate an immune response. In mouse thymoma cells (EG7), CPA can induce immunogenic tumor cell apoptosis and release of large amounts of HMGB1. A circulating low-dose CPA regimen restored peripheral T cell proliferation and innate killing activities by inhibiting human CD4+ CD25+regulatory T cells. In addition, metronomic CPA treatment for subcutaneous growth of GL261 GBM tumors activates strong innate anti-tumor immunity in mice, thus effectively inducing immune-based tumor regression. Similarly, metronomic CPA treatment improves the survival rate of model mice with subcutaneous GL261 GBM tumors by influencing immune function. Nayagom et al., reported sensitization of tumor cells to anticancer agents by transfer of suicide genes; mesenchymal stem cells expressing suicide genes metabolize CPA into toxic metabolites, further induce ICD and DAMPs release, and significantly enhance tumor immunogenicity. The phenomenon whereby CPA metabolites induce ICD provides potential for improved tumor eradication, as well as additional possibilities for anti-tumor immunotherapy.

2.5 Paclitaxel

Paclitaxel (PTX) is an important and effective anti-tumor drug, which can quickly bind and stabilize microtubules. A liposomal PTX formulation has been used to treat ovarian cancer, breast cancer, and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). David et al. found that the tumor tissues from mice treated with PLX3397/PTX enhanced anti-tumor immunity, blocked tumor-associated macrophage infiltration, and were beneficial to tumor inhibition mediated by CD8+ T cells.

Low-dose nano-PTX is proven to promote T cell infiltration into CT26 tumors. PTX has been proposed as an effective ICD inducer based on research into mouse breast cancer (4T1), CRC (CT26 and MC38), lung cancer (LL/2), and ovarian cancer (ID8 and ID8F3) cells, as well as human CRC cells (HCT116), where it causes the exposure of CRT and ERp57 in tumor cells, accompanied by ATP and HMGB1 release. In addition, combined nano PTX and programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) antibody treatment of colon tumors in model mice was significantly more effective than single drug treatment. Song et al. developed a nanogel encapsulating PTX to deliver interleukin −2 (IL-2), which significantly induced CRT exposure and enhanced anti-tumor activity.

Nano-preparations may also be a good choice to reduce side effects. Nab-paclitaxel, a nano-preparation of paclitaxel, reduces the frequency of neuropathy, anemia, pain and diarrhea in patients with metastatic breast cancer.

2.6 Lasted finalized clinical studies

Following Vanmeerbeek’s trial watch in 2020, many latest clinical trials have evaluated the real efficacy of various ICD-induced drugs. We summarized several clinical trials related to the efficacy of drugs induced ICD (Table 2). Sawaki and collaborators reported the results of a randomized controlled trial enrolling 275 older patients202 with HER2-positive early breast cancer. In this context, the disease-free survival of trastuzumab plus chemotherapy drugs including PTX, Docetaxel, Epirubicin, DOX and CPA (93.8%) was superior to trastuzumab alone (89.5%). Yamaguchi et al., treated 90 patients with gastric/gastroesophageal junction cancer with pembrolizumab in combination with oxaliplatin or cisplatin. In the context of this phase IIb study, it provided strong evidence for the efficacy of ICD-induced chemotherapy drug combined with ICBs. However, there is no difference in two kinds of platinum agents. Lee et al., combined pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) and pembrolizumab in 200 patients with ovarian cancer, found that the ORR and median PFS of combination therapy was better than historical therapy of pembrolizumab alone. In the context of a phase IIb study of Wildiers et al., combined pertuzumab and trastuzumab with metronomic CPA chemotherapy improve the therapeutic effect on patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer. The PFS of metronomic oral CPA plus trastuzumab and pertuzumab (28.7%) was superior to trastuzumab and pertuzumab (18.7%). Zsiros et al. treated patiens with ovarian cancer. The combination of cyclophosphamide, pabolizumab and bevacizumab showed good clinical benefits (median PFS = 10.0) in the phase 2 clinical trial.

Other clinical trials focused on biomarkers of immune in patients treated with ICD-induced chemotherapeutics. Qu et al. mentioned that the treatment of gemcitabine and oxaliplatin combined with apatinib in gallbladder cancer will significantly increase the level of humoral immune cells, and significantly decrease the levels of sIL-2R, and sICAM-1 to effectively control the progress of the disease by improving the immune function. According to the current evidence, breast cancer and colorectal cancer may be indications that ICD-induced chemotherapy drugs can be combined with immune drugs to obtain good clinical activity. In summary, ICD-induced chemotherapy may provide benefits for patients receiving immunotherapy.

3.1 Targeting ICD in immunotherapy

Common ways to induce cell death include necroptosis, apoptosis, and pyroptosis. Apoptosis can be divided into intrinsic and extrinsic forms. Among them, mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization (MOMP) plays a key role in intrinsic apoptosis by activating NF-κB. Caspase proteases can also inhibit IFN reaction and indirectly inactivate HMGB1 in damps to keep apoptosis immunologically silent, thus affecting the process of apoptosis. Therefore, ICD can be strongly induced by type I IFN responses, which are mediated by blocking caspase and MOMP. Immunogenic chemotherapeutic drugs that can induce ICD play an anti-tumor role by mediating the release of damps in addition to inducing apoptosis. Besides, anti-PD-L1 and emricasan (a caspase inhibitor) combined with radiation can induce anti-tumor effect for more effective immunotherapy. The immunogenic mechanism of necroptosis is still controversial. Annelise et al., demonstrated that the anti-tumor immunity of necroptosis depended on the induction of NF-κB mediated by protein kinases RIPK1 and RIPK3, while Tania et al., believed that the immunogenicity was related to the release of damps, rather than NF-κB. Necroptosis cancer cells have been proved to be effective inducers of anti-tumor immune response and used for tumor vaccination. The targeting necroptosis brings new possibilities for cancer treatment. Similarly, pyroptosis induced by gasdermin D (GSDMD) is also an important form of cell death related to the mechanism of chemotherapy drugs killing tumor cells. The recovery of GSDME expression in tumor cells is helpful to enhance the function of immune cells to inhibit tumor growth. The activation of pyroptosis can trigger strong anti-tumor immunity which is synergistic with anti-PD1 immune checkpoint blockade.

3.2 ICD induced by targeted drugs

In fact, anti-tumor immune responses related to anti-cancer drug-induced therapy are not limited to traditional chemotherapy drugs. Although there is no clear evidence of ICD induced by tyrosine kinase in the related research of ICD induced by targeted drugs. Some evidence showed that anti-EGFR specific antibody (7A7) can cause significant tumor-specific CTL response, and their clinical efficacy is related to ICD induction. In the study of D122 mice lung cancer cells, 7A7, like anthracycline-induced ICD, can induce CRT and ERp12 on plasma membrane to be exposed to the cell surface, and cause the early phosphorylation of eIF6α. Dying D122 cells treated with 7A7 also made a major contribution to stimulate DC maturation, and increased the infiltration of CD4+T cells and CD8+T cells. Anti-tumor immune responses also extend to numerous targeted drugs (Table 3), such as cetuximab, which is used for treatment of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Research using human and mouse CRC cell lines demonstrated that cetuximab triggered an ER stress response and promoted DC phagocytosis. The immunogenicity of a cetuximab-treated mouse CRC cell line (CT26) expressing human EGFR (hEGFR-CT26) increased and the tumor cells induced an effective anti-tumor response. Ibrutinib is another targeted drug with significant anti-tumor effects against chronic lymphocytic leukemia, which has shown sustained benefits for patients in clinical studies. In experiments using mouse lymphoma cell lines (H11, A20, and BL3750), ibrutinib enhanced the anti-tumor immune response induced by intratumoral injection of a toll like receptor 9 (TLR9) ligand, and promoted T cell-dependent tumor regression. Liu et al. detected CRT exposure and ATP and HMGB1 release in several human cancer cell lines (U2OS, HeLa, HCT-116) and mouse fibrosarcoma cells (MCA205) following treatment with various tyrosine kinase inhibitors, including: (R)-crizotinib, foretinib, canertinib, lestaurtinib, and ceritinib. These characteristics are similar to those of the anthracycline ICD inducer, MTX, and suggest that crizotinib has potential to act as an ICD inducer. In addition, they found that combination treatment of NSCLC with cisplatin and crizotinib induced ICD in vivo. Further, Petrazzuolo et al. found that crizotinib and ceritinib induced anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-dependent ICD in anaplastic large cell lymphoma. Cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) are key molecules involved in cell cycle regulation, which are closely associated with the occurrence and development of malignant tumors. CDK4/6 inhibitors exhibit remarkable activity against several solid tumors, including breast cancer and NSCLC. There is increasing evidence that CDK4/CDK6 inhibitors can both inhibit malignant cell proliferation and mediate their broader regulation, including through immune stimulation. Goel et al. proved that CDK4/6 inhibitors (abemaciclib, palbociclib, and lapatinib) can increase tumor cell antigen presentation ability, promote CTL-mediated tumor cell clearance, and enhance the immunogenicity of malignant cells by overcoming immune evasion in a mouse breast cancer model.

4 Conclusion and perspectives

Cancer chemoimmunotherapy is among the most effective combined strategies against tumor cells. Here, we reviewed the mechanisms of ICD induction by chemotherapy and targeted drugs, and the performance of various drugs in tumor models. Many ICD-induced chemotherapy regimens have been approved for widespread use in patients with cancer, although most use is based on empirical evidence. Although some medical therapies based on ICD have made considerable progress, their clinical application continues to face many challenges. Side effects, systemic toxicity risk, and unpredictable curative effects of anti-tumor drugs are all problems that need to be solved. In addition, determining dosage and treatment plans that mediate maximal immunostimulation is an ongoing major challenge. Therefore, how to translate the results of basic research into chemotherapy-induced ICD into clinical practice remains a significant obstacle. The hallmarks of ICD (CRT exposure on the cell surface, ATP secretion, and HMGB1 release) have been analyzed as biomarkers to predict the prognosis and survival of patients with cancer with the aim of future clinical application. Similarly, the mechanisms driving ICD have been used to produce DC-based tumor vaccines, and many clinical trials have been completed. In summary, research into the mechanisms underlying ICD is expected to stimulate the discovery of new immunogenic anticancer drugs and provide a solid foundation for the development of more effective methods of cancer treatment.
