Emerging phagocytosis checkpoints in cancer immunotherapy
Cancer immunotherapy, mainly including immune checkpoints-targeted therapy and the adoptive transfer of engineered immune cells, has revolutionized the oncology landscape as it utilizes patients’ own immune systems in combating the cancer cells.
