Radiotherapy, immunotherapy, and the tumour microenvironment: Turning an immunosuppressive milieu into a therapeutic opportunity

N. E. Donlon et al.

Summary: Immune checkpoint blockade has significantly changed the treatment of solid tumors, but many patients do not respond. Combining radiation therapy with immunotherapy may have synergistic effects by remodeling the tumor microenvironment, but careful control of dose and fractionation is essential for safety and efficacy. Ongoing efforts to combine radiation, immunotherapy, and DNA damage response inhibitors aim to achieve a beneficial balance between the immunogenic and tolerogenic effects of radiation on the immune microenvironment.
