Core Tip |
Aggressive cancer growth is often characterized by tumor expression of molecules that co-opt effective immune responses through immune checkpoints. Clinical blockade of checkpoints programmed death-1 and cytotoxic T lymphocyte associated antigen-4 and has spurred the discovery of a number of immune checkpoints that may be inhibited in anticancer therapy. The clinical successes of checkpoint blockade have led to increasing interest in combining treatment modalities. Combination checkpoint blockade with chemoradiation has shown synergistic effects, and checkpoint blockade with bacterial vaccine vectors have produced increased immune responses in pre-clinical models. The future of immune checkpoint blockade may be as a powerful adjuvant alongside the current standard of care. |
