Abstrakt: With the advent of large collections of adaptive immune receptor recombination reads representing cancer, there is the opportunity to further investigate the adaptive immune response to viruses in the cancer setting. This is a particularly important goal due to longstanding but still not well-resolved questions about viral etiologies in cancer and viral infections as comorbidities. In this report, we assessed the T cell receptor complementarity determining region-3 (CDR3) amino acid (AA) sequences, for blood-sourced TCRs from neuroblastoma (NBL) cases, for exact AA sequence matches to previously identified anti-viral TCR CDR3 AA sequences. Results indicated the presence of anti-viral TCR CDR3 AA sequences in the NBL blood samples highly significantly correlated with worse overall survival. Furthermore, the TCR CDR3 AA sequences demonstrating chemical complementarity to many cytomegalovirus antigens represented cases with a worse outcome, including cases where such CDR3s were obtained from tumor samples. Overall, these results indicate a significant need for, and provide a novel strategy for assessing viral infection complications in NBL patients.
