Abstract

Activation of antitumor immunity upon immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) is one of the most promising strategies in cancer therapy. However, ICB resistance is frequently observed in cancer preclinical models and patients. A recent report in Cell reveals that sustained interferon (IFN) signaling confers tumor resistance to ICB by inducing the expression of an immunosuppressive multigenic program.<br /> (Copyright © 2017 Elsevier Inc.
