Though radiation therapy has previously been combined with T-cell boosting immunotherapy, it rarely succeeds in eliminating cold tumors. The team’s previous research explored using radiation therapy to “warm up” cold tumors. Radiation directly kills cancer cells and sends out inflammatory signals that attract “killer” T cells.
