Title: Eradicating micrometastases with immune checkpoint blockade: Strike while the iron is hot
Abstract: Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) is transforming treatment for many cancers. While ICB alone initially demonstrated efficacy in patients with metastatic melanoma, it has expanded to other types and to earlier-stage cancers. We describe ICB history, mechanisms underlying variation in response, and how ICB is being integrated into adjuvant and neoadjuvant treatment approaches. © 2021
