Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Monoclonal antibodies and other agents that inactivate immune checkpoints like PD-1 and CTLA-4 have been effective against only certain types of cancer and have had highly variable efficacy in patients. These limitations have hastened investigations of additional checkpoints that can serve as therapeutic targets. Nevertheless, no other approach has yet reached the effectiveness of PD-1 and CTLA-4 inactivation. Recent studies have shown that experimental inhibitory immune checkpoints and the drugs targeting them display unexpected or undesirable mechanisms of action or regulation, thus highlighting previously underappreciated complexities of immune checkpoint-based therapies. Understanding these nuances is crucial for developing more effective and safer therapies. This Review explores the intricacies surrounding inhibitory immune checkpoints and offers insights for improved therapeutic strategies in the future.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
