Abstract:SUMMARYThe goal of therapeutic cancer vaccines and immune checkpoint therapy (ICT) is to eliminate cancer by expanding and/or sustaining intratumoral T cells with enhanced anti-tumor capabilities. However, whether therapeutic cancer vaccination and ICT achieve enhanced anti-tumor immunity by distinct or somewhat overlapping immunological mechanisms remains unclear. Considering increasing interest in combining these two types of treatment to improve efficacy rates, a better understanding of how these treatments… Show more
