Mevalonate Metabolism in Immuno-Oncology
Immuno-oncology not only refers to the multifaceted relationship between our immune system and a developing cancer but also includes therapeutic approaches that harness the body's immune system to fight cancer. The recognition that metabolic reprogramming governs immunity was a key finding with important implications for immuno-oncology. In this review, we want to explore how activation and dif...
متن کاملThe immuno-oncology framework
Developers of cancer immunotherapy have struggled for decades to achieve clinical success in using the patient's immune system to treat cancer. In the absence of a defined development paradigm for immunotherapies, conventional criteria established for chemotherapy were applied to these agents. This article summarizes the recent lessons for development of agents in the immunotherapy space, descr...
متن کاملComputational discovery and experimental validation of novel drug targets in immuno-oncology
The past few years have witnessed a renaissance in the field of immuno-oncology largely due to the clinical success in targeting the immune checkpoints CTLA-4 and PD-1. Towards identification of novel immune checkpoint drug targets we developed a dedicated predictive discovery platform. The B7/CD28 discovery platform is a predictive model based on genomic and protein features along with express...
متن کاملSmall-molecule Bcl-2 antagonists as targeted therapy in oncology
Dynamic protein-protein interactions between proapoptotic and pro-survival Bcl-2 family members regulate outer-mitochondrial membrane permeabilization and cytochrome c release, key events in the path to apoptosis. Their relative levels often dictate the fate of a cell following an apoptotic stimulus. However, in cancer cells, the pro-survival Bcl-2 family members are frequently upregulated, the...
متن کاملStatistical issues and challenges in immuno-oncology
BACKGROUND The development of immuno-oncologic agents poses unique challenges, namely that both efficacy and safety profiles differ from previously characterized cytotoxic and pathway-specific agents. In addition, exponential distribution is usually assumed in study designs with time-to-event endpoints such as overall survival or progression-free survival. This assumption might lead to wrong es...
