The presence of TLS is associated with longer progression-free survival and better response to immune checkpoint inhibitors2,3. Rapidly growing evidence illustrates correlation between TLS-derived antibodies in the tumor microenvironment and positive clinical outcomes2. TLS-derived antibodies have been shown to be associated with apoptosis of cancer cells in patients2. Tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) are centers of immune activity, such as B-cell proliferation and antibody production, that develop in chronically inflamed tissues1. Antibodies from TLS are specialized for local antigens and play a significant role in the progression of chronic diseases and cancer, setting them apart from the general population of antibodies in the peripheral blood2. 100 75 50 25 10 15 20 0 0 5 High Ig Staining Low Ig Staining Pr og re ss io n- fr ee ( % ) Time (months) P= 0.019 Tertiary Lymphoid Structures (TLS): The focus of Absci’s Reverse Immunology approach T A R G E T D I S C O V E R Y 1 doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2018.01952 2 doi: 10.1016/j.immuni.2022.02.001 3 doi: 10.1038/s41586-019-1922-8
