Abstract excerpt
Immune evasion is a hallmark of cancer. While there are multiple different mechanisms that cancer cells employ, myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are one of the key drivers of tumor-mediated immune evasion.

However, our understanding of the clinical relevance of MDSCs in...
