Fueling the engine and releasing the break: combinational therapy of cancer vaccines and immune checkpoint inhibitors

open access: yesCancer Biology & Medicine, 2015
Immune checkpoint inhibitors are increasingly drawing much attention in the therapeutic development for cancer treatment. However, many cancer patients do not respond to treatments with immune checkpoint inhibitors, partly because of the lack of tumor ...

Combined immune checkpoint blockade increases CD8+CD28+PD-1+ effector T cells and provides a therapeutic strategy for patients with neuroblastoma

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2021
Immune checkpoint therapy has resulted in minimal clinical response in many pediatric cancers. We sought to understand the influence of immune checkpoint inhibition using anti-PD-1 and anti-CTLA-4 antibodies individually, in combination, and after ...

Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in Triple Negative Breast Cancer Treatment: Promising Future Prospects

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2021
Immunotherapy has emerged as the fifth pillar of cancer treatment alongside surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and targeted therapy. Immune checkpoint inhibitors are the current superheroes of immunotherapy, unleashing a patient’s own immune cells to ...

Epi-drugs in combination with immunotherapy: a new avenue to improve anticancer efficacy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Immune checkpoint factors, such as programmed cell death protein-1/2 (PD-1, PD-2) or cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4) receptors, are targets for monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) developed for cancer immunotherapy.

Identification of the immune checkpoint signature of multiple myeloma using mass cytometry‐based single‐cell analysis

open access: yesClinical & Translational Immunology, 2020
Objectives New targets or strategies are needed to increase the success of immune checkpoint‐based immunotherapy for multiple myeloma (MM). However, immune checkpoint signals in MM microenvironment have not been fully elucidated. Here, we aimed to have a

Metabolism-associated danger signal-induced immune response and reverse immune checkpoint-activated CD40+ monocyte differentiation

open access: yesJournal of Hematology & Oncology, 2017
Adaptive immunity is critical for disease progression and modulates T cell (TC) and antigen-presenting cell (APC) functions. Three signals were initially proposed for adaptive immune activation: signal 1 antigen recognition, signal 2 co-stimulation or co-

Advanced Nanotechnology for Enhancing Immune Checkpoint Blockade Therapy

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2021
Immune checkpoint receptor signaling pathways constitute a prominent class of “immune synapse,” a cell-to-cell connection that represses T-lymphocyte effector functions.

Adverse effects of immune checkpoint inhibitor therapies on right ventricular function and pulmonary arterial dilatation

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, 2021
Immunologic risk factors contribute to endothelial dysfunction and development of pulmonary vascular disease. Immune checkpoint inhibitors, used as immunotherapies for malignancies, have a wide range of reported immune-related adverse events.

Immune phenotypes of prostate cancer cells: Evidence of epithelial immune cell-like transition?

open access: yesAsian Journal of Urology, 2016
Prostate cancers (PCa) have been reported to actively suppress antitumor immune responses by creating an immune-suppressive microenvironment. There is mounting evidence that PCas may undergo an ‘‘Epithelial Immune Cell-like Transition’’ (EIT) by ...

Emerging dynamics pathways of response and resistance to PD-1 and CTLA-4 blockade: tackling uncertainty by confronting complexity

open access: yesJournal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research, 2021
Immune checkpoint inhibitors provide considerable therapeutic benefit in a range of solid cancers as well as in a subgroup of hematological malignancies.
