Lymphodepleting chemotherapy potentiates neoantigen-directed T cell therapy by enhancing antigen presentation
Sagie et al. identify a KRAS.G12V-specific TCR and show that lymphodepleting chemotherapy enhances antigen presentation via immunoproteasome activation and HLA-I upregulation. Together, these changes ...
