EFFECTIVE IMMUNITY AGAINST CANCER

Bindea et al, Curr Opin Immunol, 2010

Immune score

SLIDE 7

TYPE I TYPE II The type of immunity needed to kill cancer

There are “good” guys and there are “bad” guys

Regulate immunity

slide-8
SLIDE 8

How cancer escapes from the immune system

Immunogenic cancer proteins are “self”

slide-9
SLIDE 9

Immune checkpoint inhibitor antibodies

slide-10
SLIDE 10

Taking the break off the immune system

slide-11
SLIDE 11

Immune therapy now an essential part of cancer therapy… for some cancers

slide-12
SLIDE 12

“Hot” vs. “Cold” tumors

Cold: Majority Non-responders? Hot: Minority Responders?

Can cold tumors become hot?

How cancer escapes from the immune system

Cancer must look dangerous to the immune system

slide-15

Vaccines to create the right response
