Tumors and the immune response interact in various ways. Tumors try to suppress the immune response in an effort to promote their growth and survival. The anti-tumor immune response, on the other hand, identifies tumor cells and kills them. Both tumors and the immune response elicit various mechanisms to combat the actions of the other.
Prostate cancers are considered immunologically ‘cold’ tumors given the very few patients who respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy (CPI). Recently, enrichment of interferon st...
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells have demonstrated significant success in treating relapsed or treatment-refractory hematologic malignancies in the clinic, inducing remissions in 70-9...
Despite the promising results with current approved immunotherapies, all patients do not have the same level of response, and recent efforts have focused on understanding and avoiding immuno...
