Intratumoral Anti-CTLA-4 Therapy: Enhancing Efficacy While Avoiding Toxicity CLINICAL CANCER RESEARCH Marabelle, A., Kohrt, H., Levy, R. 2013; 19 (19): 5261-5263

Abstract

Systemic administration of the checkpoint blockade antibody anti-CTLA4 results in severe autoimmune toxicity, limiting its clinical efficacy. Fransen and colleagues show here that peritumoral delivery of low doses of this immunomodulatory drug can trigger a systemic antitumor immune response while preventing the toxicity against other organs.
