Molecular Pathways: Involvement of Immune Pathways in the Therapeutic Response and Outcome in Breast Cancer
22 Dec 2012
Abstract excerpt
The immune system could mediate the antitumor activity of several anticancer treatments. Several chemotherapy compounds, including anthracyclines and oxaliplatin, induce immunogenic cell death that in turn activates antitumor immune response. Trastuzumab induces antibody-dependant cell-mediated cytotoxicity. On the basis of this background, immune markers have recently been the focus of intense translational...
