Microbe man, you are incorrect - First, the anti-CTLA-4


presentation at SITC showed that Bavi and anti-CTLA-4 resulted in the lowest murine tumor volume of ALL combinations. Survival was NOT a metric. The Hemotoxylin and Eosin slides also definitely showed the most tumor destruction with the Bavi and anti-CTLA-4 combination, not anti-CTLA-4 alone.

check it yourself


You state to Stoneroad:

That will probably be correct since the anti-PS + anti CTL4A combo actually gave lower final survival numbers that CTLA4 alone. I may be missing something, but I don't find anything to date about these immunotherapy combinations that gets me very excited.

Wrong.

No study with either anti-PD-1 or anti-CTLA-4 combined with Bavi ever mentioned survival AT ALL. The SITC study measured tumor volume, and the Keystone study measured TUMOR SUPPRESSION not survival.

To review the recent Keystone results:

Results from these preclinical studies found that animals administered a combination of a PS-targeting antibody and an anti-CTLA-4 or an anti-PD-1 antibody exhibited greater tumor growth suppression and longer survival than anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD1 antibodies alone.

In other words, yes, you ARE missing something. I have no idea why you quote "survival" in these studies, which was never mentioned as a metric in any of these studies.

Your post contains so many errors, it's hard to take you seriously.


Please think before you post when trying to contribute to the Board.
