Background
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common type of lung cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) of programmed death-1 (PD-1)/programmed death ligand-1 signaling induce tumor regr…
Background
Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) significantly impact cancer progression and CAF subtypes are key determinants of response to immune checkpoint therapy (ICT). The transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling is a main pathwa…
Background
Immune checkpoint inhibitors have transformed melanoma therapy but frequently cause immune-related adverse events (irAEs), including colitis, that limit treatment. Reliable biomarkers predicting toxicity remain lacking.
Methods
In this ret…
Background
Although most studies of anticancer T-cell immunity focus on αβ T cells, T cells are attracting increasing attention due to their involvement in antitumor immune responses in various cancer entities, including melanoma. While im…
Background
Patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) exhibit heterogeneous responses to immunotherapy (IT) with high resistance rates, highlighting the need for precise biomarkers of treatment outcomes.
Methods
In a prospective cohort study, w…
Background
Cergutuzumab amunaleukin (CA) is an immunocytokine comprising an anticarcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) linked to an interleukin-2 (IL-2) variant. CA does not bind to CD25 (IL-2 receptor α) and was designed to maintain the T and natural k…
Purpose
Chemoradiotherapy (CRT) combined with anti-PD-1 for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) has shown promising efficacy but lack the predictive biomarkers to identify patients who could benefit from this therapy. The predic…
Background
Mismatch repair deficiency (dMMR) colorectal cancer (CRC) is characterized by abundant tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes and tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs). However, while B cells are pivotal for TLS formation, their function and the sign…
Background
KRAS is one of the most frequently mutated genes in colorectal cancer (CRC) and plays a crucial role in tumorigenesis, progression, immune evasion, and treatment resistance. The pronounced heterogeneity within KRAS-mutant CRC highlights t…
Background
Immunotherapy is considered a promising treatment approach for advanced biliary tract cancers (BTCs), but only a small number of patients can respond to immunotherapy. This study aimed to develop and validate a clinical-radiomics nomogram i…
