Nonmelanoma skin cancers (NMSCs) are some of the most commonly diagnosed malignancies. In general, early-stage NMSCs have favorable outcomes; however, a small subset of patients develop resistant, advanced, or metastatic disease, or aggressive subtypes that are more challenging to treat...
Immunotherapy has transformed lung cancer care in recent years. In addition to providing durable responses and prolonged survival outcomes for a subset of patients with heavily pretreated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs)— either as monotherapy or in...
The recent development and clinical implementation of novel immunotherapies for the treatment of Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphoma have improved patient outcomes across subgroups. The rapid introduction of immunotherapeutic agents into the clinic, however, has presented significant questions...
Immune effector cell (IEC) therapies offer durable and sustained remissions in significant numbers of patients with hematological cancers. While these unique immunotherapies have improved outcomes for pediatric and adult patients in a number of disease states, as ‘living drugs,’ their toxicity...
Acute leukemia is a constellation of rapidly progressing diseases that affect a wide range of patients regardless of age or gender. Traditional treatment options for patients with acute leukemia include chemotherapy and hematopoietic cell transplantation. The advent of cancer immunotherapy has...
On September 3, 2020, leading experts in cancer immunotherapy presented an overview of the publication "The Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer consensus statement on immunotherapy for the treatment of multiple myeloma" during a live webinar. The recorded webinar and presentation slides are...

Outcomes in multiple myeloma (MM) have improved dramatically in the last two decades with the advent of novel therapies including immunomodulatory agents (IMiDs), proteasome inhibitors and monoclonal antibodies. In recent years, immunotherapy for the treatment of MM has advanced rapidly, with...
A listing of the abstracts for the 30th Annual Meeting and Associated Programs of the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) can be found here. Published in the Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer (2015) Volume 3; Supplement 2. #SITCPublication
Recent biotechnological developments have resulted in increasing interest in immunology biomarkers. These biomarkers have potential clinical utility in the near future as predictors of treatment response. Hence, clinical validation of these predictive markers is critical. The author conclude...
Flow cytometry traditionally uses fluorochrome-labeled probes, such as antibodies, to identify cells expressing the targets of those probes. A sample stream carries single cells in suspension past a laser, exciting the fluorochromes, with quantitation of the emitted fluorescent signals from each...
