Abstract
Radiation therapy and anti-CTLA-4 combination therapy can induce meaningful responses in some patients. Adding CD40 may provide additional benefit. Next-generation anti-CTLA-4 antibodies, such as botensilimab, are showing promise in clinical trials. Combining botensilimab with RT and/or CD40 agonist may offer additional benefits for challenging tumor types.
期刊介绍:
OncoImmunology is a dynamic, high-profile, open access journal that comprehensively covers tumor immunology and immunotherapy.
As cancer immunotherapy advances, OncoImmunology is committed to publishing top-tier research encompassing all facets of basic and applied tumor immunology.
The journal covers a wide range of topics, including:
-Basic and translational studies in immunology of both solid and hematological malignancies
-Inflammation, innate and acquired immune responses against cancer
-Mechanisms of cancer immunoediting and immune evasion
-Modern immunotherapies, including immunomodulators, immune checkpoint inhibitors, T-cell, NK-cell, and macrophage engagers, and CAR T cells
-Immunological effects of conventional anticancer therapies.
