Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) with antibodies inhibiting cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated protein-4 (CTLA-4) and programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) (or its ligand (PD-L1)) can stimulate immune responses against cancer and has revolutionized the treatment of both solid [1] and hematologic malignancies [2]. This evidence concerns the gene CTLA4 and hematologic disorder.
