Cell therapy is therapy in which cellular material is injected into a patient; this generally means intact, living cells. For example, T cells capable of fighting cancer cells via cell-mediated immunity may be injected in the course of immunotherapy.
1. Identify 3 barriers to immune cell response to cancer 2. List 3 approaches to overcome immunosuppressive barriers to bolster the immune response to cancer 3. Explain how fusion proteins c...
Programmed death-1 (PD-1) inhibits T and B cell function upon ligand binding. PD-1 blockade revolutionized cancer treatment, and while numerous patients respond, some develop autoimmune-like...
One of the main challenges in cancer immunotherapy is the resistance to I-O therapies. Primary resistance can occur before treatment and acquired resistance can occur in patients who respond...
B cells have recently come into vogue as important contributors to the anti-tumor immune response in cancer patients. Specifically, B cells and the immune structures in which they reside (te...
NCI estimates that cancer will be the leading cause of death in 2030, worldwide. Checkpoint inhibitors and adoptive cell therapies (ACTs) cost up to ~$2 million/patient and have shown durabl...
