The remarkable specificity of the immune system through antigen recognition has long attracted investigators to the possibility of immune‐based therapy for cancer. Previous cancer immunotherapeutics had been restricted to non‐specific immunomodulatory agents, such as the cytokines IL‐2 or IFN‐α.

Addressing current challenges in cancer immunotherapy with mathematical and computational modeling
The goal of cancer immunotherapy is to boost a patient's immune response to a tumor. Yet, the design of an effective immunotherapy is complicated by various factors, including a potentially immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, immune-modulating ...

Immunological backbone of uveal melanoma: is there a rationale for immunotherapy? [PDF]
No standard treatment has been established for metastatic uveal melanoma (mUM). Immunotherapy is commonly used for this disease even though UM has not been included in phase III clinical trials with checkpoint inhibitors.

Recent advances in nanomedicines for photodynamic therapy (PDT)-driven cancer immunotherapy
Cancer immunotherapy has made tremendous clinical progress in advanced-stage malignancies. However, patients with various tumors exhibit a low response rate to immunotherapy because of a powerful immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) and ...

The Evolving Role of CD8+CD28- Immunosenescent T Cells in Cancer Immunology [PDF]
Functional, tumor-specific CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes drive the adaptive immune response to cancer. Thus, induction of their activity is the ultimate aim of all immunotherapies.

Exploiting innate immunity for cancer immunotherapy
Immunotherapies have revolutionized the treatment paradigms of various types of cancers. However, most of these immunomodulatory strategies focus on harnessing adaptive immunity, mainly by inhibiting immunosuppressive signaling with immune checkpoint ...

ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...
