Making pediatric cancer more 'visible' boosts immunotherapy response
Original: Making pediatric cancer more ‘visible’ boosts immunotherapy response
Researchers at Penn State Health report that making pediatric cancer cells more 'visible' to the immune system can improve how well children respond to immunotherapy. The approach focuses on helping immune cells better recognize tumours, a persistent challenge in childhood cancers. The finding points to a possible way to extend the benefits of immunotherapy, which has historically worked less well in children than in adults.
Why now: New research from Penn State Health suggests a strategy to improve immunotherapy effectiveness in childhood cancers, an area of unmet need.
