Targeting immune checkpoints potentiates immunoediting and changes the dynamics of tumor evolution
The cancer immunoediting hypothesis assumes the immune system sculpts the cancer genome. Here the authors show, in a mouse model, that neutral evolution outweighs the effects of immunoselection and that immune checkpoint blockade potentiates the immunoediting, switching the system to non-neutral evo...
