Abstract Despite the current success of immunotherapies, only microsatellite instable (MSI) Colorectal Cancer (CRC) typically respond to T cell-driven immunotherapies while microsatellite stable (MSS) CRC displays poor response. Our goal is to identify resistance mechanisms in MSS-CRC to uncover novel therapeutic targets. Current syngeneic CRC models are largely immunogenic and lack complex structure. Therefore, we developed novel 3D humanized CRC mouse models which form complex human-like tumors which are typically absent in syngeneic systems. We investigated molecular profiles of human MSI-versus MSS-CRC tumor xenografts following Keytruda immunotherapy and identified an immunosuppressive profile in MSS models that was not observed in MSI-CRC. We evaluated the therapeutic potential of blocking inflammation in combination with other immuno-modulatory therapies in both cold and hot CRC models and identified a significant regression of tumor burden in MSS-CRC mice. Our studies provide a novel CRC in vivo model and a unique opportunity to better define how immune cells interact in human MSS- and MSI-CRC microenvironments, to enable clinical therapeutic implementation.
