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.
Immunotherapy such as immune checkpoint inhibitor antibodies have revolutionized the treatments for hard-to-treat cancers, with durable responses observed in clinics. However, the overall re...
