Serological assessment of collagen fragments and tumor fibrosis may guide immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy

open access: yesJournal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research, 2021
Despite the overall clinical success of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) for treating patients with solid tumors, a large number of patients do not benefit from this approach. Consequently, there is a need for predictive biomarkers. The most prevalent
