Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We previously reported that the induction of effector T cells was enhanced during immune reconstitution after chemotherapy. In the current study, we found that antitumor effects of anti-PD-1 therapy was augmented when combined with immune reconstitution mediated by chemotherapy. This enhancement of anti-PD-1 therapy was observed even in PD-L1 negative tumors. FACS analyses revealed that PD-L1 was expressed on tumor-infiltration immune cells. These findings indicated that effector T cells were suppressed by PD-L1 expressed on tumor-infiltration immune cells.
