Immuno-oncology

Studies that investigate the immune system, its interactions with tumor cells, and opportunities to enhance the body's natural defenses against cancer

Acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) is a major complication of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) associated with gut microbiota disruptions. However, whether therapeutic microbiota modulation prevents aGVHD is unknown. We conducted a randomized, placebo-controlled trial of third-party fecal ...

The primary treatment for glioblastoma (GBM) is removing the tumor mass as defined by MRI. However, MRI has limited diagnostic and predictive value. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) are abundant in GBM tumor microenvironment (TME) and are found in peripheral blood (PB). FKBP51 expression, with its canonical and spliced ...

Proteasomes degrade intracellular proteins to generate antigenic peptides that are recognized by the adaptive immune system and promote anticancer immunity. However, tumors subvert the antigen presentation machinery to escape immunosurveillance. We hypothesized that proteasome activation could concomitantly increase ...

Exercise mobilizes cytotoxic lymphocytes to blood which may allow superior cell products to be harvested and manufactured for cancer therapy. Gamma-Delta (γδ) T-cells have shown promise for treating solid tumors, but there is a need to increase their potency against hematologic malignancies. Here, we show that human γδ ...

KRAS inhibitors have demonstrated exciting pre-clinical and clinical responses, although resistance occurs rapidly. Here, we investigate the effects of KRAS-targeting therapies on the tumor microenvironment using a library of KRASG12D, p53 mutant, murine PDAC-derived cell lines (KPCY) to leverage immune-oncology ...

Immune-checkpoint therapy (ICB) has conferred significant and durable clinical benefit to some cancer patients. However, most patients do not respond to ICB, and reliable biomarkers of ICB response are needed to improve patient stratification. Here, we performed a transcriptome-wide meta-analysis across 1,486 tumors from ...

Encouraged by our observations of pronounced B7-H3 protein over-expression in many human solid tumors compared to healthy tissues, we focused on targeting B7-H3 with CAR T cells. We utilized a nanobody as the t B7-H3 targeting domain in our CAR construct to circumvent the stability issues associated with scFv-based ...

Macrophages represent a heterogeneous myeloid population with diverse functions in normal tissues and tumors. While macrophages expressing the cell surface marker lymphatic vessel endothelial hyaluronan receptor 1 (LYVE-1) have been identified in stromal regions of the normal mammary gland and in the peri-tumoral stroma, ...
