Immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy represents a significant advance in cancer care. The interaction between PD-1 and PD-L1 induces immune tolerance and the inhibition of this interaction is an effective treatment strategy for numerous malignancies. Despite its demonstrated potential, immunotherapy is not clinically effective in immunogenically 'cold' tumors such as pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer and neuroendocrine tumors. Through the inhibition of VEGF, it may be possible to potentiate the effect of immune checkpoint blockade in tumors that have traditionally shown a lack of clinical response to immunotherapy. This signal-seeking, single-arm, prospective clinical trial aims to determine the objective response of tivozanib and atezolizumab in advanced immunogenically cold solid tumors.

免疫检查点抑制剂疗法是癌症治疗领域的一项重大进展。PD-1与PD-L1之间的相互作用会诱导免疫耐受,而抑制这种相互作用是治疗多种恶性肿瘤的有效策略。尽管免疫疗法已显示出潜力,但在免疫原性“冷”肿瘤(如胰腺癌、前列腺癌和神经内分泌肿瘤)中,它在临床上并不有效。通过抑制血管内皮生长因子(VEGF),有可能增强免疫检查点阻断在传统上对免疫疗法缺乏临床反应的肿瘤中的效果。这项探索性、单臂、前瞻性临床试验旨在确定替沃扎尼和阿替利珠单抗在晚期免疫原性冷实体瘤中的客观缓解情况。NCT05000294(ClinicalTrials.gov)。
