Primary extranodal diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma: Molecular features, treatment, and prognosis
One‐third of DLBCL arises from extranodal organs and is challenging to manage. Molecular features are critical to elucidate the differences in clinical features, predict the disease prognosis, and improve effective targeted therapeutic strategies. Abstract Diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common subtype of non‐Hodgkin's lymphoma and ...

T cell equation as a conceptual model of T cell responses for maximizing the efficacy of cancer immunotherapy [PDF]
Following antigen stimulation, the net outcomes of a T cell response are shaped by integrated signals from both positive co-stimulatory and negative regulatory molecules. Recently, the blockade of negative regulatory molecules (i.e. immune checkpoint signals) demonstrates therapeutic effects in treatment of human cancer, but only in a fraction of ...

Enhancement of electroporation facilitated immunogene therapy via T-reg depletion [PDF]
Regulatory T cells (T-regs) can negatively impact tumor antigen-specific immune responses after infiltration into tumor tissue. However, depletion of T-regs can facilitate enhanced anti-tumor responses, thus augmenting the potential for immunotherapies ...

Surfaceome: a new era in the discovery of immune evasion mechanisms of circulating tumor cells
In the era of immunotherapies, many patients either do not respond or eventually develop resistance. We propose to pave the way for proteomic analysis of surface‐expressed proteins called surfaceome, of circulating tumor cells. This approach seeks to identify immune evasion mechanisms and discover potential therapeutic targets. Circulating tumor cells (

Reinstating endogenous antitumor immunity: The concept of therapeutic management of cancer
Strong evidence points to the role of cancer immunoediting and tumor immune infiltrates in regulating cancer progression. By understanding the immune tumor microenvironment, we can now target key pathways that suppress endogenous antitumor responses ...

Isolation of T cell receptors targeting recurrent neoantigens in hematological malignancies
Mutation-derived neoantigens represent an important class of tumour-specific, tumour rejection antigens, and are attractive targets for TCR gene therapy of cancer.

Peripheral Blood CD8+ T-Lymphocyte Subsets Are Associated with Prognosis in Prostate Cancer Patients
Background: Various studies have reported associations between frequencies of total peripheral blood lymphocytes and prostate cancer prognosis, but none so far has addressed the prognostic role of CD8+ T-lymphocyte subsets.

Optimal control in cancer immunotherapy by the application of particle swarm optimization [PDF]
In this article, a well-known mathematical model of cancer immunotherapy is discussed and used to represent therapeutic protocols for cancer treatment. The optimal control problem is formulated based on the Pontryagin maximum principle to deal with adoptive cellular immunotherapy, then the problem has been solved by the application of particle swarm ...

Managing toxicities associated with immune checkpoint inhibitors: consensus recommendations from the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) Toxicity Management Working Group. [PDF]
Cancer immunotherapy has transformed the treatment of cancer. However, increasing use of immune-based therapies, including the widely used class of agents known as immune checkpoint inhibitors, has exposed a discrete group of immune-related adverse ...

Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) offers a possibility for different applications in early and late stage breast cancer management. In early breast cancer tumor informed approaches are increasingly used for detecting molecular residual disease (MRD) and early recurrence. In advanced stage, ctDNA provides a possibility for monitoring disease progression and
