Immunosuppressed patients with non-melanoma skin cancer experience worse clinical outcomes, yet the tumor immune microenvironment associated with systemic immunosuppression remains incompletely defined. Using integrated single-cell, spatial transcriptomic, multiplex immunofluorescence, and spatial epigenomic profiling across immunocompetent and immunosuppressed tumors, we found that overall immune-cell composition was largely preserved despite differences in immune-cell distribution, spatial organization, and T cell clonality. Immunosuppressed tumors demonstrated reduced intratumoral macrophage densities, decreased T cell clonal diversity, altered antigen-presenting cell and T cell spatial interactions, and distinct fibroblast- and macrophage-associated spatial niches. Multi-cohort validation across complementary spatial and single-cell platforms identified consistent alterations in innate-adaptive immune organization in immunosuppressed tumors. Together, these findings define spatial and functional remodeling of the tumor immune microenvironment under systemic immunosuppression and provide a framework for future therapeutic investigation in high-risk patients.
