Three separate studies have revealed potential new avenues for research into immunotherapy. Two have highlighted molecules that may help cancer cells evade the immune system. While the other suggests that the effects of an experimental breast cancer drug could be boosted by immunotherapy. All 3 studies were published in the journal Nature.
