Dr. Liau is not exactly giving DCVax-L an endorsement in UCLA's latest GBM newsletter:

"Dr. Liau says treatment resistance can be caused by the therapy itself, including radiation, chemotherapy and immunotherapy."

“For instance, when giving immunotherapies, we can induce T cells that go attack the tumor,” she says. “But this can trigger a new population of immune suppressor cells that attack the T cells. Even though we’re inducing an immune response against tumors cells, the body is fighting back to protect against an immune attack in the brain.”
