Abstract:NEURO-ONCOLOGY • NOVEMBER 2017in multivariate analysis except for TNFRSF18 (GITR). CONCLUSIONS: We identified multiple immune checkpoints and soluble immune inhibitory factors independently associated with intratumoral CYT in untreated GBM. Further studies are warranted to determine whether each of these factors induces T-cell effector responses in GBM or, conversely, is upregulated as a means of tumor immune evasion. These results may inform rational combinations for immunotherapy in GBM.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
