Genome sequencing has uncovered an array of recurring somatic mutations in different non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) subtypes. If affecting protein-coding regions, such mutations may yield mutation-derived peptides that may be presented by HLA class I proteins and recognized by cytotoxic T cells. A recurring somatic and oncogenic driver mutation of the Toll-like receptor adaptor proteinMYD88, Leu265Pro (L265P) was identified in up to 90% of different NHL subtype patients. We therefore screened the potential ofMYD88L265P-derived peptides to elicit cytotoxic T cell responses as tumor-specific neoantigens. Based onin silicopredictions, we identified potentialMYD88L265P-containing HLA ligands for several HLA class I restrictions. A set of HLA class IMYD88L265P-derived ligands elicited specific cytotoxic T cell responses for HLA-B*07 and -B*15. These data highlight the potential ofMYD88L265Pmutation-specific peptide-based immunotherapy as a novel personalized treatment approach for patients withMYD88L265P+NHLs that may complement pharmacological approaches targeting oncogenic MyD88 L265P signaling.
