Approaches to treat immune hot, altered and cold tumours with combination immunotherapies

TL;DR: A panel of therapeutic strategies to use, combine and develop to treat hot, altered and cold tumours is provided and the impact of combination therapy on the immune response to convert an immune cold into a hot tumour will be discussed.

Inflammation and Cancer: Triggers, Mechanisms, and Consequences.

TL;DR: How tumor-promoting inflammation closely resembles inflammatory processes typically found during development, immunity, maintenance of tissue homeostasis, or tissue repair is discussed and the distinctions between tissue-protective and pro-tumorigenic inflammation are illuminated.
Journal ArticleDOI

The evolving landscape of biomarkers for checkpoint inhibitor immunotherapy

TL;DR: A better understanding of how these variables cooperate to affect tumour–host interactions is needed to optimize the implementation of precision immunotherapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

The immune contexture in cancer prognosis and treatment

TL;DR: The immune contexture, which is determined by the density, composition, functional state and organization of the leukocyte infiltrate of the tumour, can yield information that is relevant to prognosis, prediction of a treatment response and various other pharmacodynamic parameters.

Cytoscape: A Software Environment for Integrated Models of Biomolecular Interaction Networks

TL;DR: Several case studies of Cytoscape plug-ins are surveyed, including a search for interaction pathways correlating with changes in gene expression, a study of protein complexes involved in cellular recovery to DNA damage, inference of a combined physical/functional interaction network for Halobacterium, and an interface to detailed stochastic/kinetic gene regulatory models.

The blockade of immune checkpoints in cancer immunotherapy

TL;DR: Preliminary clinical findings with blockers of additional immune-checkpoint proteins, such as programmed cell death protein 1 (PD1), indicate broad and diverse opportunities to enhance antitumour immunity with the potential to produce durable clinical responses.
