Mechanisms of innate and adaptive resistance to checkpoint blockade immunotherapy are under intense investigation with a view to broadening the therapeutic potential of this form of treatment. In a recent manuscript by Zaretsky and colleagues, mutational events were identified that effectively crippled ongoing immunotherapy responses in patients treated with anti-PD-1 therapy. These results are discussed in the light of other recent and ongoing research efforts exploring both mutational and non-mutational resistance mechanisms, highlighting the critical translational importance of longitudinal tumor sampling.
目前正在深入研究先天和适应性抵抗检查点阻断免疫疗法的机制,以期扩大这种治疗形式的治疗潜力。在 Zaretsky 及其同事最近的一篇论文中,鉴定了导致接受抗 PD-1 治疗的患者的免疫治疗反应失效的突变事件。这些结果结合其他最近和正在进行的研究工作(探索突变和非突变抵抗机制)进行了讨论,突出了纵向肿瘤采样的关键转化重要性。
