Some promising immune checkpoints include programmed cell death 1 (PD-1), programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) and cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4), which exert immunomodulatory effects as negative regulators of T-cell activation and suppress immune responses in cervical cancer through cancer cell immune evasion. Here, PDCD1 is linked to cervical cancer.
