FDA approvals may move UCLA brain cancer and Alzheimer’s treatments from bench to bedside

A vaccine to treat glioblastoma called DCVax-L has been in development for several years. Linda Liau, MD, PhD, MBA, and a team of UCLA researchers were the first to investigate whether a patient’s own dendritic cells (a specialized type of immune cell) could be used to create a personalized treatment for the deadly cancer.

At UCLA, Dr. Liau and other researchers are now testing whether the vaccine would be more effective in combination with a PD-1 checkpoint inhibitor. Checkpoint inhibitors are a type of immunotherapy that work by blocking proteins that stop the immune system from attacking cancer cells. While the vaccine allows T-cells to get inside of the tumor, the checkpoint inhibitors may allow T-cells to be more functional and better attack the tumor cells.
