Evidence for a tumoral immune resistance mechanism based on tryptophan degradation by indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase

TL;DR: It is shown that most human tumors constitutively express IDO, and that expression of IDO by immunogenic mouse tumor cells prevents their rejection by preimmunized mice, suggesting that the efficacy of therapeutic vaccination of cancer patients might be improved by concomitant administration of an IDO inhibitor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reversal of tumoral immune resistance by inhibition of tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase

TL;DR: A TDO inhibitor was developed, which, upon systemic treatment, restored the ability of mice to reject TDO-expressing tumors and established proof-of-concept for the use of TDO inhibitors in cancer therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tryptophan 2,3-Dioxygenase (TDO) Inhibitors. 3-(2-(Pyridyl)ethenyl)indoles as Potential Anticancer Immunomodulators

TL;DR: This study led to the identification of a very promising compound displaying good TDO inhibition (K(i) = 5.5 μM), high selectivity, and good oral bioavailability, and 58 was chosen for preclinical evaluation.
Journal ArticleDOI

An antigenic peptide produced by reverse splicing and double asparagine deamidation

TL;DR: A class I-restricted peptide that combines several posttranslational modifications that is derived from tyrosinase and recognized by tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes isolated from a melanoma patient is described.
