A multinational collaboration co-led by the Garvan Institute of Medical Research has uncovered a potential explanation for why some cancer patients receiving a type of immunotherapy called checkpoint ...
When many cancers advance, spread and reoccur, checkpoint inhibitors can help keep difficult tumors at bay. These antibody-based immunotherapies can restore the body’s ability to recognize and ...
The results of a preclinical study have identified a biological mechanism that explains why some patients don’t respond to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy for solid cancer tumors. The study, ...
Weill Cornell Medicine researchers have discovered that PD-1—a molecule best known for putting the brakes on immune cells—also plays a critical role in helping T cells become long-term immune ...
“The anti-correlation of PD-1 and KLRG1 expression in human tumor infiltrating CD8 T cells suggests the potential for combination therapy supra-additive benefits of anti-PD-1 and anti-KLRG1 therapies.
