Combination immunotherapy treatment effective before lung cancer surgery
Combination immunotherapy with the anti-PD-L1 monoclonal antibody durvalumab and other novel agents outperforms durvalumab alone in the neoadjuvant (pre-surgical) setting for early-stage non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), according to researchers from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.
The findings, published today in Cancer Discovery, were first presented at the American Association for Cancer Research...

Vitamin E can boost immunotherapy responses by reinvigorating dendritic cells
Combining a retrospective analysis of clinical records with in-depth laboratory studies, researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have discovered that vitamin E can enhance immunotherapy responses by stimulating the activity of dendritic cells in the tumor. The findings were published today in Cancer Discovery.
The researchers demonstrated that vitamin E directly binds and blocks the activity of the SHP1...
