Checkpoint inhibitors such as antibodies directed against cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) and programmed cell death protein (PD-1)/PD-1 ligand (PD-L1) resulted ineffective to produce durable clinical responses due to tumor-mediated immune evasion and resistance, caused by the presence, into the TME, of immunosuppressive cells like MDSCs (116). The gene discussed is CD274; the disease is neoplasm.
