GDF-15 Blockade Overcomes Resistance to Immune Checkpoint Inhibition

Main Findings: Visugromab, a GDF-15 blocking antibody, is tolerable and elicits clinical responses in combination with nivolumab.Concept: GDF-15 may represent a mechanism of anti-PD-1 resistance that can be targeted to enhance antitumor immunity.Impact: This phase I/IIa trial supports the safety and further clinical evaluation of this combination, particularly in NSCLC and urothelial cancer.
