6011 Background: The neoadjuvant setting is an excellent opportunity to study ‘ in vivo’ the biological impact of treatment on tumor cells and the immune TME. Both chemotherapy and anti-angiogenics may have immunomodulatory properties which could prime the TME and increase effectiveness of immunotherapeutic agents. We performed comprehensive multiplexed immune biomarker analyses on paired tumor samples at diagnosis and after 3 cycles of neoadjuvant carboplatin+paclitaxel (CP) +/- the anti-angiogenic tyrosine kinase inhibitor nintedanib (N) in the randomized CHIVA trial. Methods: Patients were randomized 2:1 to CP + N or placebo for 3 cycles prior to interval debulking, samples were evaluable for immune profiling for 124 pts at diagnosis and 107 at surgery from the CHIVA trial. For 86 patients matched paired samples were available. Multiplexed IF or IHC panels were performed for CD4, CD3, CD8, CK, Granzyme B, FOXP3, CD68, CD163 and DC-Lamp. Wilcoxon tests were used to compare measurements. Results: At diagnosis the most abundant cells were CD8+ and CD4+ cells (median=118 and 119cells/mm2, respectively) compared to Foxp3+ TRegs (median=30/mm2). Among the myeloid lineage, the proportion of CD68+ (M1) and CD163+ (M2) macrophages was balanced, while mature dentritic cells (DC) represented
