Blockade of PD‐L1 (B7‐H1) augments human tumor‐specific T cell responses <i>in vitro</i>
15 Feb 2006
Abstract excerpt
Human tumors frequently escape immune destruction, despite the presence of cytotoxic T cells (CTL) recognizing tumor-associated antigens (TAA). We have previously shown that programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1), a recently identified ligand of the B7 superfamily, is expressed on murine tumors and can inhibit antitumor immune responses. To evaluate the clinical relevance of our animal model findings, we examined...
