Abstract: Described herein are methods and computer systems for classification of CD8 T-cell topology using a patient response-based linear cutoff model. A plurality of histology images of tissue samples in a plurality of patients are received by a computer system. An image analysis of the plurality of histology images is performed to obtain a CD8+ T-cell abundance in the tumor parenchyma and stroma in each of the plurality of histology images. Real inflammation scores and tumor infiltration scores are determined based on a polar coordinate transformation of the CD8+ T-cell abundance in the tumor parenchyma and stroma. Based on the real inflammation scores and tumor infiltration scores, a feature space is generated, and linear boundaries or linear cutoffs between a plurality of classifications in the feature space are identified based on the real inflammation scores, the tumor infiltration scores, and patient response data.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods for treating a subject afflicted with a cancer, comprising administering to the subject a TIM3 agonist (e.g., an anti-TIM3 antibody), alone or in conjunction with another immune checkpoint inhibitor (e.g., a PD-1 antagonist), wherein the subject is identified as having a high frequency of TIM3 positive cells (e.g., on the tumor infiltrating inflammatory cells) or soluble TIM3 in peripheral blood. Also provided are methods for assessing the efficacy of a treatment comprising a TIM3 antagonist in a subject afflicted with a cancer, comprising measuring the frequency of TIM3 (and optionally PD-1) positive cells in certain populations of cells and/or the soluble TIM3 in peripheral blood of the subject, wherein a high frequency of TIM3 (and optionally PD-1) positive cells and/or the subject's peripheral blood titer of soluble TIM3 is indicative of the response to the treatment.
