Treatment outcome after oncolytic adenovirus treatments in TIM-3 groups

Clinical parameter TIM-3 decr. (n=9) TIM-3 incr. (n=6) Total (n=15) Significance* (decr. vs incr.)
Treatment outcome Patient, n (% of total) P value
Marker response† CR 1 (11.1) 0 (0.0) 1 (6.7) ns
PR 0 (0.0) 2 (33.3) 2 (13.3) ns
MR 2 (22.2) 0 (0.0) 2 (13.3) ns
SD 2 (22.2) 0 (0.0) 2 (13.3) ns
PD 2 (22.2) 3 (50.0) 5 (33.3) ns
N/A 2 (22.2) 1 (16.7) 3 (20.0) ns
Imaging response† CR 0 (0.0) 0 (0.0) 0 (0.0) ns
PR 0 (0.0) 0 (0.0) 0 (0.0) ns
MR 3 (33.3) 1 (16.7) 4 (26.7) ns
SD 2 (22.2) 1 (16.7) 3 (20.0) ns
PD 2 (22.2) 1 (16.7) 3 (20.0) ns
N/A 2 (22.2) 3 (50.0) 5 (33.3) ns
Overall survival Median 204 days 64 days 143 days (0.0036)
95% CI (116 to 292 days) (0 to 144 days) (89 to 197 d)

*Patients were stratified into TIM-3 decr. and TIM-3 incr. groups based on direction of TIM-3 expression change. Fisher’s exact test was used for categorical response variables between TIM-3 groups, while log-rank test was used for overall survival.

†PET criteria were used to assess results of PET-CT imaging and tumor markers were measured from blood samples, both scored with the same percentage cutoffs, as described in the Materials and Methods section and online supplemental table S1.

‡P<0.01.

CR, complete response; decr., decrease; incr., increase; MR, minor response; ns, not significant; PD, progressive disease; PET, positron emission tomography; PR, partial response; SD, stable disease; TIM-3, T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain-3.
