Improving cancer immunotherapy via co-delivering checkpoint blockade and thrombospondin-1 downregulator

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2023
The use of checkpoint-blockade antibodies is still restricted in several malignancies due to the modest efficacy, despite considerable success in anti-tumor immunotherapy.

Cancer Immunotherapy: Beyond Checkpoint Blockade [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Cancer Biology, 2019
Blocking antibodies to the immune checkpoint receptors or their ligands have revolutionized the treatment of diverse malignancies. Many tumors are recognized by adaptive immunity, but these adaptive responses can be inhibited by immunosuppressive mechanisms within the tumor, often through pathways outside of the currently targeted checkpoints.

Increased expression of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) in human pituitary tumors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
PURPOSE: Subsets of pituitary tumors exhibit an aggressive clinical courses and recur despite surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. Because modulation of the immune response through inhibition of T-cell checkpoints has led to durable clinical responses ...

Hyperprogression: A novel response pattern under immunotherapy

open access: yesClinical and Translational Medicine, 2020
Checkpoint blockade therapy has shown significant therapeutic benefits and resulted in durable responses in patients with various tumors. However, accumulating evidence has demonstrated that 4‐29% of all patients with cancers with various histologies may

Neoadjuvant PD-1 blockade induces T cell and cDC1 activation but fails to overcome the immunosuppressive tumor associated macrophages in recurrent glioblastoma

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Immune-checkpoint blockade has shown limited benefits in patients with glioblastoma. To understand how the composition of the tumor immune microenvironment might limit clinical responses, here the authors present a high dimensional profiling of the ...

The miRNA Profile of Inflammatory Colorectal Tumors Identify TGF-β as a Companion Target for Checkpoint Blockade Immunotherapy

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Extrinsic factors such as expression of PD-L1 (programmed dealth-ligand 1) in the tumor microenvironment (TME) have been shown to correlate with responses to checkpoint blockade therapy.

DNAM-1 and the TIGIT/PVRIG/TACTILE Axis: Novel Immune Checkpoints for Natural Killer Cell-Based Cancer Immunotherapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Natural killer (NK) cells are lymphocytes of the innate immune response characterized by their role in the destruction of tumor cells. Activation of NK cells depend on a fine balance between activating and inhibitory signals mediated by different ...

Radiotherapy Complements Immune Checkpoint Blockade [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Cell, 2015
Adaptive immune resistance ablates effective anti-tumor immune responses. In a recent issue of Nature, Victor and colleagues describe that anti-PD-L1 combats adaptive immune resistance upon localized radiation plus anti-CTLA-4 therapy. The superior activity of radiation and dual immune checkpoint blockade is mediated by non-redundant immune mechanisms ...

PD-L1 blockade enhances response of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma to radiotherapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is considered a non‐immunogenic tumor, and immune checkpoint inhibitor monotherapy lacks efficacy in this disease. Radiotherapy (RT) can stimulate the immune system.

Immune checkpoint blockade in HIV

open access: yeseBioMedicine, 2022
Antiretroviral therapy (ART) has dramatically improved life expectancy for people with HIV (PWH) and helps to restore immune function but is not curative and must be taken lifelong. Achieving long term control of HIV in the absence of ART will likely require potent T cell function, but chronic HIV infection is associated with immune exhaustion that ...
