Abstract
There is significant interest in the role that the B cell response plays in cancer patients’ anti-tumour response. The autoantibody biomarker class is increasingly being recognized as a powerful tool and critical biological mediator of the cancer-immunity interplay. Autoantibodies targeting tumour and self-antigens may serve as biomarkers of anti-tumour response and auto-immunity. As these biomarkers can be measured in patient sera, they hold great potential as routine clinical biomarkers in immuno-oncology.
This webinar explores the role of autoantibodies in predicting survival and immune related adverse events (irAE) in patients receiving cancer immunotherapy.
