Background
Inducible costimulator (ICOS) receptor belongs to the CD28/CTLA immunoglobulin super family, whose expression is restricted to T cells and is weakly expressed on resting TH17, follicular helper T cells, and regulatory T cells, but is highly…
Background
Although immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are efficacious, they often cause immune-related adverse events (irAEs), most commonly cutaneous irAEs (CirAEs). The mechanisms underlying CirAEs remain unclear.
Methods
Attempting to better und…
Background
Despite a series of attempts during the last decades, the prognosis for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) remains poor. Although clinical immunotherapy trials have shown encouraging results, their benefits are limited. This study ai…
The tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a crucial role in shaping the response to immunotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). While immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized NSCLC treatment, a significant proportion of patients e…
Background
Microbiome manipulation research is focused on developing techniques to modify the gut microbiome and augment responses to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) represents a potential strategy to overcom…
Background
AZD5863 is a bispecific T cell engager (TCE) with high affinity to CLDN18.2 and low affinity to cluster of differentiation 3 (CD3), designed to decrease its peripheral cytokine release potential, improve the therapeutic index, and maintain …
Background
The phase II NEOMUN trial was conducted to investigate the therapeutic effect of preoperative programmed death receptor-1 inhibitor pembrolizumab for treating non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Herein, we report the final efficacy, safety,…
Background
We aimed to develop an actionable and feasible prospective clinical model to estimate toxicity risk to assist chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy providers with the management of patients with relapsed and/or refractory large B-c…
Background
Neoadjuvant immunotherapy significantly improves the pathological complete response (pCR) rate in colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the lack of reliable tools to accurately identify responders remains a key barrier to its widespread clinica…
