Abstract

Blockade of the CTLA-4 and PD-1 inhibitory pathways in T cells via the administration of neutralizing antibodies at the time of interleukin (IL)-15 therapy markedly enhanced the survival of tumor-bearing mice as compared with those receiving IL-15 alone or IL-15 in combination with just one of the antibodies.
