Abstract Programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) is a premier cancer drug target for immune checkpoint blockade (ICB). Because PD-1 receptor inhibition activates tumor-specific T-cell immunity, research has predominantly focused on T-cell-PD-1 expression and its immunobiology. In contrast, cancer cell-intrinsic PD-1 functional regulation is not well understood. Here, we demonstrate induction of PD-1 in melanoma cells via type I interferon receptor (IFNAR) signaling and reversal of ICB efficacy through IFNAR pathway inhibition. Treatment of melanoma cells with IFN-α or IFN-β triggers IFNAR-mediated Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) signaling, increases chromatin accessibility and resultant STAT1/2 and IFN regulatory factor 9 (IRF9) binding within a PD-1 gene enhancer, and leads to PD-1 induction. IFNAR1 or JAK/STAT inhibition suppresses melanoma-PD-1 expression and disrupts ICB efficacy in preclinical models. Our results uncover type I IFN-dependent regulation of cancer cell-PD-1 and provide mechanistic insight into the potential unintended ICB-neutralizing effects of widely used IFNAR1 and JAK inhibitors. |
