CD266+ myofibroblasts mediate resistance to immunochemotherapy through ECM stiffness in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma
Cancer Immunol Res. 2026 Aug 31. doi: 10.1158/2326-6066.CIR-25-1379. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT The efficacy of immunotherapy in unresectable/recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (U/R/M HNSCC) remains suboptimal compared to primary untreated resectable HNSCC. The immunological and stromal landscape during immunotherapy in U/R/M HNSCC is crucial for understanding drug resistance mechanisms. In this study, … Read more
