Resumo

O tratamento do cancro é uma área em intensa e permanente atualização, nomeadamente com a descoberta da imunoterapia como modalidade terapêutica clinicamente eficaz para diversos tipos de cancro. Entre estas terapias inovadoras, as terapias com inibidores de checkpoints imunológicos (ICI) têm demonstrado apresentar respostas significativas e duradouras. No entanto, esta resposta não ocorre para todos os doentes, ou seja, alguns pacientes não beneficiam desta terapia. Devido a esta heterogeneidade na resposta à imunoterapia, persiste a necessidade urgente de identificar e estabelecer biomarcadores que permitam a identificação dos doentes que irão responder à terapia, poupando os que não respondem aos efeitos adversos. Para além deste aspeto, parece promissor o impacto na clínica da utilização destes biomarcadores na monitorização da resposta durante o tratamento. Dado o reconhecido papel do sistema imunológico na resposta anti-tumoral, estas células têm sido intensamente estudadas como potenciais biomarcadores. Com este objetivo, o sangue periférico (SP), tem revelado grande interesse e importância, dada a sua fácil acessibilidade e natureza menos invasiva. A avaliação detalhada e integral da imunidade periférica, exige uma metodologia multiparamétrica como a citometria de fluxo, recorrendo à utilização de marcadores de linhagem simultaneamente com marcadores de maturação, ativação e estados funcionais. Com esta revisão bibliográfica narrativa, pretendeu-se descrever o “estado da arte” sobre o estudo por citometria de fluxo das populações celulares do sistema imunológico no SP, como potenciais biomarcadores para a terapia com ICI em tumores sólidos. Os resultados encontrados são apresentados para cada uma das populações principais e suas subpopulações, nomeadamente linfócitos T, células supressoras derivadas da linhagem mieloide (MDSCs), neutrófilos, eosinófilos, células dendríticas (DC), células natural killer (NK), monócitos, e linfócitos B.
