A KAIST research team identified a previously unrecognized immune mechanism through which anti-CTLA-4 promotes B-cell responses in tumor-draining lymph nodes. This response is critical for the antitumor effects of anti-CTLA-4 therapy, opening a new avenue for treating intractable brain tumors like glioblastoma.
