Immune checkpoint blockade in hematologic malignancies.
Therapeutic blockade of immune checkpoint pathways, in particular cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated protein 4 and programmed-death 1 (PD-1), has become a paradigm-shifting treatment in solid tumor oncology. Hematologic malignancies (HMs), many of which are known to have clinically exploitable immune sensitivity, are a natural target for this type of treatment. Several clinical trials of checkpo...
متن کاملImmune checkpoint blockade in human cancer therapy: lung cancer and hematologic malignancies.
Tumor immune evasion is one of the hallmarks of cancer, and expression of the B7 family of immune checkpoints (PD-L1, PD-L2, B7-H3, B7x and HHLA2) is one mechanism of immune evasion by tumors to suppress T-cell function. Antibodies blocking these interactions of B7-1/B7-2/CTLA-4 and PD-L1/PD-L2/PD-1 have had remarkable clinical success in several cancers and are less toxic than traditional chem...
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: the role of PD-1-PD-L axis in lymphoid malignancies
The co-inhibitory receptor programmed cell death (PD)-1, expressed by immune effector cells, is credited with a protective role for normal tissue during immune responses, by limiting the extent of effector activation. Its presently known ligands, programmed death ligands (PD-Ls) 1 and 2, are expressed by a variety of cells including cancer cells, suggesting a role for these molecules as an immu...
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...
