Background
We hypothesized treatment with nivolumab and stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) would be feasible, well tolerated, and may improve intracranial tumor control over SRS alone for breast cancer brain metastases (BCBM).
Methods
The study is a pha…
Background
Neoadjuvant immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy (Chemo-IM) is associated with significantly improved pathological complete response (pCR) rates and long-term survival outcomes in patient with early-stage triple-negative breast cancer (…
Background
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are effective anticancer agents but significantly increase cardiovascular risk. This could be due to its potential to induce or worsen atherosclerosis. We evaluated the onset and progression of atheroscle…
Background
Gut microbiota can significantly alter the risk or progression of cancer by maintaining gut immune system homeostasis. However, the exact mechanism by which the gut microbiota and its metabolites influence colorectal tumorigenesis is unclea…
Background
Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is a rare, but lethal cancer with low response rates to systemic therapies, such as cytotoxic chemotherapy and immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). Despite extensive clinical trials, no effective treatments fo…
Background
SOT201 and its murine surrogate mSOT201 are novel cis-acting immunocytokines consisting of a humanized/murinized/, Fc-silenced anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) monoclonal antibody (mAb) fused to an attenuated human interleukin (I…
Background
Relapse of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) with CD19-antigen loss after CD19-targeted chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy has a dismal prognosis. Novel immunotherapeutic strategies for this patient population are urge…
Background
The presence of activated CD8 T cells in the tumor microenvironment is correlated with an effective immune response to immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy. However, ICI predominantly targets high-affinity T cells, which may be less ab…
Background
Bladder cancer (BLCA) is a challenging malignancy with a poor prognosis, particularly in muscle-invasive cases. Despite recent advancements in immunotherapy, response rates remain suboptimal. This study investigates the role of METTL3, an m…
