Article Title: CTLA-4 blockade synergizes with cryoablation to mediate tumor rejection
Abstract: We report that cryoablation of primary tumors synergizes with anti-CTLA-4 treatment to mediate rejection of secondary tumors in the TRAMP mouse model of prostate cancer. T cells, in particular CD8(+) T cells specific for the TRAMP antigen SPAS-1, were enriched in both secondary tumors and spleens of combination-treated mice.
