Phase I Study of Single-Agent Anti-Programmed Death-1 (MDX-1106) in Refractory Solid Tumors: Safety, Clinical Activity, Pharmacodynamics, and Immunologic Correlates

Julie R. Brahmer et al.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of anti-PD-1 therapy in patients with treatment-refractory solid tumors and to assess its antitumor activity, pharmacodynamics, and immunologic correlates. The results showed that anti-PD-1 therapy was well tolerated and resulted in partial or complete responses in some patients. Based on these findings, it is suggested that combination therapies with other drugs may further enhance the treatment efficacy.

Comprehensive analysis of the role of ICOS ( CD278 ) in pan-cancer prognosis and immunotherapy

Xiashuang Zhao et al.

Summary: This study comprehensively examined the expression and prognostic value of ICOS in 33 different cancers using bioinformatics techniques. The findings showed that ICOS expression was up-regulated in most cancer types and it was highly expressed in gastric, breast, liver and renal cell carcinoma cell lines. The high expression of ICOS was associated with poor prognosis in melanoma and glioma, while strong ICOS expression was associated with better prognosis in ovarian cancer, sarcoma, skin cutaneous melanoma, thymoma, uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma, and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
