Northwestern Medicine scientists discovered increased immune cell activity in #MerkelCellCarcinoma tumors, which could help predict treatment response in patients, per @CD_AACR. spr.ly/6012cb1YE
Happy to share our latest work in Merkel cell carcinoma immunotherapy published today in Cancer Discovery @CD_AACR from the Choi Lab @jaehyukchoimd in collaboration with the Tsai lab @KYTsaiLab. aacrjournals.org/cancerdisco…
6/7 Post-immunotherapy analysis shows expansion of pre-existing Trm cells and recruitment of new clones in responders. This highlights the importance of both pre-existing immunity and newly recruited T cells. #AdaptiveImmunity
7/7 Key takeaway: This study identifies multiple clinically actionable biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets for MCC, with implications for other cancer types. Exciting progress in personalized immunotherapy! #PrecisionMedicine #CancerTreatment
