Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer
Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer is the official journal of the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC)
Featured Publications
The recently-published SITC Combination Immunotherapy Task Force white paper, entitled “Combination immunotherapy: a road map” (Ott et al.), aims to identify the most promising prospects for combination therapy and address challenges associated with combinatorial approaches. Building on previous work on combination immunotherapy, this article is the first to address the use of mouse models, safety considerations in early clinical testing, the need for innovative early phase clinical trial designs, and appropriate safety and efficacy endpoints for early phase clinical trials, all in the specific setting of combination immunotherapy.
Guidelines for the use of immunotherapy to treat patients with prostate carcinoma, hematologic malignances, and renal cell carcinoma were also recently published as part of the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer’s (SITC) Cancer Immunotherapy Guidelines series. These guidelines are the first of their kind and represent the result of a multidisciplinary collaboration between academic researchers and physicians, nurses, patients, and patients advocates from throughout the U.S.

Article series
Immune monitoring technology primers
Reviewed by the members of the SITC Immune Biomarkers Task Force, these brief primers highlight important aspects of both standardized and novel technologies available in clinical trial settings.
SITC Cancer immunotherapy guidelines
Developed by experts in the treatment of specific types of cancer, each consensus statement provides key indicators to help practicing oncologists determine when and how to best use immunotherapy to treat their patients.

RESEARCH ARTICLE
Traditionally, most monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have been dosed based on body weight because of perceived contribution of body size in pharmacokinetic variability. The same approach was used in the initial pembrolizumab studies; however, following…

REVIEW
As cancer strikes, individuals vary not only in terms of factors that contribute to its occurrence and development, but as importantly, in their capacity to respond to treatment. While exciting new therapeutic options that…

COMMENTARY
Tumor cells can be detected and cleared by lymphocytes in a process termed cancer immunosurveillance. However, the contributing cell types had not been fully characterized. Using oncogene-induced murine models of epithelial cancer, a recent…

CASE REPORT
Advances in cancer immunotherapy have generated encouraging results in multiple malignancies refractory to standard chemotherapies. As the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) proliferates, the incidence of autoimmune side effects associated with these agents…

RESEARCH ARTICLE
Clinical success with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)- based immunotherapy for leukemia has been accompanied by the associated finding that antigen-escape variants of the disease are responsible for relapse. To target hematologic malignancies with a…
