A systemic complete response of metastatic melanoma to local radiation and immunotherapy.
Transl Oncol. 2012; (6): 404-7
Melanoma is a relatively immunogenic tumor, in which infiltration of melanoma cells by T lymphocytes is associated with a better clinical prognosis. We hypothesized that radiation-induced cell death may provide additional stimulation of an anti-tumor immune response in the setting of anti-CTLA-4 treatment.
