Time: 8:00 PM (PDT), 11:00 AM (EDT), 5:00 PM (CEST)
Abstract
Tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) are ectopic cellular hubs that coordinate immunity within patient tumors. TLS also correlate with improved prognosis and superior response to immunotherapy. While secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs) are used for an initial definition of TLS, in depth spatial imaging is necessary to understand differences within TLS in various solid tumors. In this webinar, Dr. Bruno will discuss the varying TLS types in the tumor microenvironment (TME) and new discoveries on the definition of a TLS.
Learning Objectives
- Define a tertiary lymphoid structure in human cancer
- Describe the tumor microenvironment factors that influence the formation of tertiary lymphoid structures
- Identify new factors that impact the formation and maturation of tertiary lymphoid structures
Webinars will be available for unlimited on-demand viewing after live event.
