Anti–PD-1 antitumor immunity is enhanced by local and abrogated by systemic chemotherapy in GBM

cells from LC-treated mice partially rescued SC-treated mice after tumor rechallenge. Last, the timing of chemo- and immunotherapy had differential effects on anti-PD-1 efficacy. This study suggests that both mode of delivery and timing have distinct effects on the efficacy of anti-PD-1. The results of this work could help guide the selection and scheduling of combination treatment for patients with glioblastoma and other tumor types.
