Immune checkpoint inhibitors in malignancy [PDF]

open access: yesAustralian Prescriber, 2019
Immune checkpoints normally stop the body from mounting an immune response against healthy cells. Some cancers can acquire these checkpoints so that the tumour cells are not recognised by the immune systemInhibiting the checkpoints therefore enables the tumour cells to be recognised and allows an immune response to be activated against themImmune ...

Immune Checkpoints in Viral Infections [PDF]

open access: yesViruses, 2020
As evidence has mounted that virus-infected cells, such as cancer cells, negatively regulate the function of T-cells via immune checkpoints, it has become increasingly clear that viral infections similarly exploit immune checkpoints as an immune system escape mechanism.

The effects of B cell depletion on immune related adverse events associated with immune checkpoint inhibition

open access: yesExperimental Hematology & Oncology, 2020
This letter describes the potential effect of B cell depletion on immune related adverse events associated with immune checkpoint inhibition. B cell depleting agents such as rituximab reduce B cell to plasma cell differentiation and antibody production ...

The role of kidney biopsy in immune checkpoint inhibitor nephrotoxicity

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
Immune checkpoint inhibitors, medications that boost host immune response to tumor cells, are now at the forefront of anti-cancer therapy. While efficacious in the treatment of patients with advanced cancer, immune checkpoint inhibitors can lead to ...

Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in NSCLC [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Treatment Options in Oncology, 2014
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Cytotoxic chemotherapy and tyrosine kinase inhibitors provide palliation and prolong survival, however, the median survival for patients with metastatic disease remains poor and more effective therapies are needed.

Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors and the Heart [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) represent a break-through treatment for a large number of cancer types. This treatment is increasingly being recommended. ICIs are prescribed for primary tumours and for metastases, adjuvant/neo-adjuvant therapy.

Rethinking immune checkpoint blockade: ‘Beyond the T cell’

open access: yesJournal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer, 2021
The clinical success of immune checkpoint inhibitors has highlighted the central role of the immune system in cancer control. Immune checkpoint inhibitors can reinvigorate anti-cancer immunity and are now the standard of care in a number of malignancies.
