Zeroing in on Tumor-Reactive TILs

Cancer Immunol Res. 2016 Sep 2;4(9):719. doi: 10.1158/2326-6066.CIR-16-0179.

Abstract

Adoptive cell transfer of tumor-specific T cells provides an effective strategy for cancer immunotherapy. An article in this issue provides a novel approach to refine this technology by identifying tumor-reactive T cells based on frequency and PD-1 expression.
