PDCD1 and neoplasm: Due to the increase of VEGFR-mediated angiogenesis and a less active T cell environment in distal metastatic CoMs, a clinical trial (ChiCTR2100045061) has been initiated to evaluate the efficacy of VEGFR blockade in combination with anti-PD1 therapy for patients with distant metastatic CoM, showing promising tumor-inhibitory effects.
