    NK cells are the first sentinels of the immune system that can recognize and eradicate transformed cells. Their activation without a need for additional signaling have attracted great attention on the use of NK cells as a promising option in cancer immunotherapy. However, the large-scale production of NK cells for successful NK cells therapy is a challenge that needs to be tackled. Engineering NK…

    Herein, we report a case of an elderly male patient who underwent extended radical resection of cardiac carcinoma after regular chemotherapy combined with sintilimab (PD-1 monoclonal antibody) immunotherapy complicated with severe pneumonitis postoperatively. We performed several treatments for aspiration pneumonitis; however, the patient’s pulmonary infection and oxygenation were not efficiently…

    Aim: Fever follows the administration of trastuzumab and pertuzumab used in HER2-relevant immunotherapy, but is often eliminated in clinical practice. This work explores the role of temperature (37–39°C) in the formation of immune complexes between HER2 with either trastuzumab or pertuzumab or with both antibodies. Materials & methods: Using molecular dynamics simulations and free energy…

    Aims: The relationship between appendectomy and immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) enterocolitis was explored. Methods: Patients who began ICIs between July 2010 and September 2020 (n = 10,907) were included. The exposure group included patients with evidence of appendectomy prior to ICIs in operative notes (n = 380). The control group included patients with evidence of normal appendix in…

    The impact of checkpoint inhibitors on gastroesophageal cancer treatment has been tremendous in the last 2 years. KEYNOTE-590, CHECKMATE 649 and CheckMate 648 are landmark trials that have introduced immunotherapy to the field as first-line therapy, leading to a paradigm change for advanced esophageal and gastric cancer. Chemotherapy in combination with immunotherapy is now the standard of care…
