Endothelial Progenitor Cells Enter the Aging Arena
Age is a significant risk factor for the development of vascular diseases, such as atherosclerosis. Although pharmacological treatments, including statins and anti-hypertensive drugs, have improved the prognosis for patients with cardiovascular disease, it remains a leading cause of mortality in those aged 65 years and over. Furthermore, given the increased life expectancy of the population in ...
متن کاملMismatch Repair Deficiency as a Predictive Biomarker for Immunotherapy Efficacy
Immunotherapy has revolutionized cancer treatment. Immune-checkpoint inhibitors, on balance, showed a favorable efficacy/toxicity profile with durable response in different cancer types. No predictive biomarker has been validated thus far to select patients who would benefit from therapy. Among the candidate predictive biomarkers, mismatch repair status of the tumor is currently one of the most...
متن کاملPD-L1 Expression as a Predictive Biomarker in Cancer Immunotherapy.
The resurgence of cancer immunotherapy stems from an improved understanding of the tumor microenvironment. The PD-1/PD-L1 axis is of particular interest, in light of promising data demonstrating a restoration of host immunity against tumors, with the prospect of durable remissions. Indeed, remarkable clinical responses have been seen in several different malignancies including, but not limited ...
متن کاملImmunotherapy for glioma: getting closer to the clinical arena?
PURPOSE OF REVIEW During recent years different approaches have been explored to raise effective antitumor responses against brain tumors and particularly glioblastomas (GBMs). In most cases, cancer vaccines were based on autologous dendritic cells loaded with GBM peptides or whole tumor lysates. Many phase I-II studies showed that such strategy is feasible and nontoxic but failed to provide co...
متن کاملDistinct predictive biomarker candidates for response to anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1 immunotherapy in melanoma patients
BACKGROUND While immune checkpoint blockade has greatly improved clinical outcomes in diseases such as melanoma, there remains a need for predictive biomarkers to determine who will likely benefit most from which therapy. To date, most biomarkers of response have been identified in the tumors themselves. Biomarkers that could be assessed from peripheral blood would be even more desirable, becau...
