Agonistic CD40 therapy induces tertiary lymphoid structures but impairs responses to checkpoint blockade in glioma

Agonistic CD40 antibodies (αCD40) have broad immunostimulatory properties, however their efficacy in glioma remains unclear. Here the authors show that αCD40 promotes the formation of tertiary lymphoid structures but does not improve survival and impairs the response to immune checkpoint blockade in murine glioma models.
