Background
Optimal induction chemoimmunotherapy sequential concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cCRT) in locally advanced hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HSCC) remains undefined. This study aimed to evaluate toripalimab plus chemotherapy sequential c…
Background
Despite the incorporation of atezolizumab, an anti-programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) antibody, into first-line chemotherapy regimen, survival in patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) remains poor. Given the role of …
Background
Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) is among the leading causes of cancer-related mortality in men worldwide. Treatment options for mCRPC typically include chemotherapy and androgen receptor pathway inhibitors. Immune ch…
Background
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells are highly potent therapies approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for several hematological malignancies. However, efficacy remains variable due to resistance, antigen modulation, sy…
Background
TIGIT (T cell immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domains) has emerged as a key exhaustion marker of intratumoral natural killer (NK) cells, but results from clinical trials with TIGIT blockade have been largely negative. Recent data have sugge…
Background
Therapy-induced senescence (TIS) is a common outcome of diverse anticancer treatments, including chemotherapy, radiation, and small-molecule inhibitors. Senescence is characterized by stable growth arrest and the senescence-associated secre…
Background
Primary liver cancer, predominantly hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), has limited therapeutic options. While mutation-derived neoantigen vaccine holds promise, its success is hindered by low antigen availability. This study explores transcrip…
Background
Intratumoral bacteria influence the progression and treatment response of solid tumors through multiple mechanisms. Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a common malignant tumor in the head and neck; however, the role of intratumoral bact…
Background
Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has shown promise in overcoming resistance to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in early-phase cancer trials. We investigated the safety, feasibility and efficacy of FMT from ICI responders to patien…
Purpose
IMC-C103C is an ImmTAC bispecific (MAGE-A4xCD3) T cell engager targeting a peptide from the cancer-testis antigen MAGE-A4 presented by HLA-A*02:01. This phase 1/2 study in advanced solid tumors (IMC-C103C-101; NCT03973333) investigated the saf…
