Eradicating micrometastases with immune checkpoint blockade: Strike while the iron is hot.
Academic Article
Overview
abstract
Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) is transforming treatment for many cancers. While ICB alone initially demonstrated efficacy in patients with metastatic melanoma, it has expanded to other types and to earlier-stage cancers. We describe ICB history, mechanisms underlying variation in response, and how ICB is being integrated into adjuvant and neoadjuvant treatment approaches.
