Abstract excerpt
Novel immune checkpoint therapeutics including CD40 agonists have tremendous promise to elicit antitumor responses in patients resistant to current therapies. Conventional immune checkpoint inhibitors (PD-1/PD-L1, CTLA-4 antagonists) are associated with serious adverse cardiac events including life-threatening myocarditis.
