Background  Patient-derived orthotopic xenograft (PDOX) is a popular animal model for translational cancer research. Immunotherapy is a promising therapy against glioblastoma (GBM). However, the PDOX model is limited to evaluating immune-related events. Our study aims to establish GBM humanized PDOX (HPDOX) mice models to study the mechanism of anti-CTLA4 immunotherapy and immune-related adverse events (IRAEs).    Methods  HPDOX models were established by culturing GBM tissues and intracranially implanting them in NSG mice. Meanwhile, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were separated from peripheral blood and of GBM patients and administrated in corresponding mice. The population of CD45+, CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, and regulatory T (Treg) cells was estimated in the peripheral blood or tumor.    Results  T cells derived from GBM patients were detected in HPDOX mice models. The application of anti-CTLA4 antibodies (ipilimumab and tremelimumab) significantly inhibited the growth of GBM xenografts in mice. Moreover, residual patient T cells were detected in the tumor microenvironment and peripheral blood of HPDOX mice and were significantly elevated by ipilimumab and tremelimumab. Additionally, Treg cells were decreased in mice with IRAEs. Lastly, the proportion of CD4+/CD8+ T cells dramatically increased after the administration of ipilimumab. And the degree of IRAEs may be related to CD56+ expression in HPDOX.    Conclusions  Our study established HPDOX mice models for investigating the mechanism and IRAEs of immunotherapies in GBM, which would offer a promising platform for evaluating the efficacy and IRAEs of novel therapies and exploring personalized therapeutic strategies.
