Killer Cocktail Fights Brain Cancer

Ok, I admit the title of this post lacks specificity, but I took it from the title of the article.

Are you aware of any additional research with the combination?  Looks very interesting.

  1. I does look very interesting - in mice. I haven't heard of any clinical trials testing this combination (interleukin-12 plus a CTLA-4 antibodies). Note that most trials for checkpoint inhibitors for GBM are going with PD-1 inhibitors (like nivolumab or pembrolizumab) rather that CTLA-4 inhibitors like ipilimumab/Yervoy.

    Full study available here:
