Signal Transduct Target Ther. 2024 Sep 4;9(1):229. doi: 10.1038/s41392-024-01941-x. PMID: 39227388; PMCID: PMC11372099.
The combination of Sintilimab, an anti-PD-1 antibody, with the frontline immunochemotherapy regimen MTR (methotrexate, temozolomide, and rituximab) for primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) showed a promising response rate and favorable safety profile. These results support our concept of immune-combination therapy to fully activate the anti-cancer immune cycle.
