Tracking tumor-specific CD8+ T cell responses.

In a recent article, Puig-Saus et al. computationally predict and experimentally validate neoantigen-specific T cell responses in patients with melanoma. They identify a restricted set of neoantigens recognized by polyclonal CD8+ T cells as a unique feature of anti-PD-1 responders and engineer autologous tumor-responsive T cells expressing neoantigen-specific TCRs, providing proof-of-concept for future cellular therapies.
