Oncolytic adenovirus encoding a TGF-β inhibitor synergizes with PD-1 blockade to potentiate NK cell cytotoxicity against NSCLC

Our findings suggest that the combination of a PD-1 antibody, NK cells, and the oncolytic adenovirus Ad-anti-TGF-βRII represents a promising therapeutic strategy for NSCLC by remodeling the tumor microenvironment (TME) to overcome ICI resistance.
