Update on immune checkpoint inhibitors in gynecological cancers
In recent years, progress in our understanding of immune-modulatory signaling pathways in immune cells and the tumor microenvironment (TME) has led to rejuvenated interest in cancer immunotherapy. In particular, immunotherapy targeting the immune checkpoint receptors such as cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4), programmed cell-death 1 (PD-1), and programmed cell-death ligand 1 ...
متن کاملCombination Approaches with Immune-Checkpoint Blockade in Cancer Therapy
In healthy individuals, immune-checkpoint molecules prevent autoimmune responses and limit immune cell-mediated tissue damage. Tumors frequently exploit these molecules to evade eradication by the immune system. Over the past years, immune-checkpoint blockade of cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 and programed death-1 emerged as promising strategies to activate antitumor cytotoxic T cell response...
متن کاملCorticosteroids and immune checkpoint blockade
checkpoint blockade to stimulate the immune response have demonstrated promising outcomes in advanced malignancies [1]. As a result, novel cancer immunotherapy was named a scientific breakthrough of the year in 2013 by Science. Consistent with its mechanism of action of de novo stimulation or enhancement of pre-existing T cell responses, a number of immune-related adverse events (irAEs) have be...
متن کاملImmune Checkpoint Blockade in Hepatocellular Carcinoma.
Extremely encouraging results from the interim analysis of the phase I/II nivolumab trial (CA209-040 trial) evaluating the efficacy of nivolumab in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) were reported at the 2015 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting held in Chicago from May 29 to June 2, 2015 [1]. According to the report, a dose escalation study showed the safety an...
متن کاملImmune checkpoint blockade in ovarian cancer
Increased numbers of tumour infiltrating T‑cells have long been associated with a better prognosis in ovarian cancer, which has led to the general assumption of a relevant impact of T‑cellular anti-tumour immunity in this disease. As a consequence of this knowledge, a multitude of immunologic therapies has emerged over the past years. Although some reports could evidence a successful induction ...
