The immunotherapy candidate TNFSF4 may help the induction of a promising immunological response in breast carcinomas

Abstract Immune checkpoint blockade, an immunotherapy, has been applied in multiple systemic malignancies and has improved overall survival to a relatively great extent; whether it can be applied in breast cancer remains unknown. We endeavored to explore possible factors that may influence immunothe...
