报告摘要:Dendritic cell (DC) vaccines and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) play critical roles in shaping the immune responses of tumor cells (TCs), and are widely used in cancer immunotherapies. Quantitatively evaluating the effectiveness of these therapies are essential for the optimization of treatment strategies.  In this talk, I present the mathematical models developed to predict the responses of melanoma patients to immunotherapy. Multiple monotherapies and combined therapy with model simulations were tested. Our results indicated that DC vaccines can decelerate the growth of TCs, ICIs can inhibit the growth of TCs, both therapies can prolong the lifetime of patients, and the combined therapy of DC vaccines and ICIs can effectively eradicate TCs.
