In this study , we demonstrated that AMP immunotherapy can boost TCR-T cell therapy by acting directly in the lymph nodes to promote the coordination of tumour-specific T cell responses by antigen presenting cells. This combination approach resulted in durable anti-tumour T cell responses and tumour eradication.

While lockdowns may slow the rate of viral transmission in the short term, our longer time battle with the virus will depend on how quickly the population develops sufficient immunity (whether through natural exposure or a vaccine, once one becomes available). Selecting an appropriate antigen mix, however, is probably the easier part.
