    Abstract IL-2 remains a promising candidate for immunotherapy of cancer, but its use is hampered by systemic toxicities. In this issue of Immunity, Tichet, Hanahan, and colleagues demonstrate that an IL-2 variant fused to an anti-PD-1 antibody overcomes these limitations to promote impressive tumor control. This approach may be a path to treat tumors that do not respond to anti-PD-1 monotherapy.

    Abstract The recent successes of cancer immunotherapy, first and foremost checkpoint blockade therapy, illustrate the power of the immune system to control cancer. As the number of patients receiving this therapy is increasing, the number of patients being resistant or establishing resistance toward immunotherapy is also increasing. We, therefore, need to further understand the mechanisms mediate resistance in order to prevent or overcome those mechanisms. Increasing evidence is being reported that alterations in tumor cell-intrinsic signaling pathways, including the activation of the WNT/β-catenin pathway, are associated with blunted T-cell infiltration. Infiltration of tumor by CD8 T cells is one of the most predictive biomarkers for the response toward immunotherapy and therefore the notion that alterations of certain tumor cell-intrinsic signaling pathways might mediate resistance should be considered. Understanding the molecular and immunological mechanisms mediating resistance will ultimately facilitate the development of effective treatment strategies counteracting immune evasion.

    Abstract Checkpoint blockade therapy has been proven to be highly active across many cancer types but emerging evidence indicates that the therapeutic benefit is limited to a subset of patients in each cancer entity. The presence of CD8(+) T cells within the tumor microenvironment or the invasive margin of the tumor, as well as the up-regulation of PD-L1, have emerged to be the most predictive biomarkers for clinical benefit in response to checkpoint inhibition. Although the up-regulation of immune inhibitory mechanisms is one mechanism of immune escape, commonly used by T-cell-inflamed tumors, exclusion of an anti-tumor specific T-cell infiltrate displays another even more potent mechanism of immune escape. This review will contrast the mechanisms of immunogenic, T-cell-inflamed, and the novel concept of non-immunogenic, non-T-cell-inflamed, adaptive immune escape.

    Abstract The overall mutational burden of a tumor is considered to be a predictive marker for the success of checkpoint blockade therapy. A recent study by McGranahan et al. reframes this notion by showing that clonal expression of neoantigens by tumor cells, rather than overall mutational burden, determines the response to checkpoint blockade therapy.

    Abstract The development of cancer immunotherapies has been guided by advances in our understanding of the dynamics between tumor cells and immune populations. An emerging consensus is that immune control of tumors is mediated by cytotoxic CD8+ T cells, which directly recognize and kill tumor cells. The critical role of T cells in tumor control has been underscored by preclinical and clinical studies that observed that T cell presence is positively correlated with patient response to checkpoint blockade therapy. However, the vast majority of patients do not respond or develop resistance, frequently associated with exclusion of T cells from the tumor microenvironment. This review focuses on tumor cell-intrinsic alterations that blunt productive anti-tumor immune responses by directly or indirectly excluding effector CD8+ T cells from the tumor microenvironment. A comprehensive understanding of the interplay between tumors and the immune response holds the promise for increasing the response to current immunotherapies via the development of rational novel combination treatments.
