Sumario:Strategies to harness the patient’s immune system to fight cancer have mainly involved adoptive T-cell transfer. We and others have recently highlighted an alternative immunotherapeutic approach to cancer that consists of enhancing the macrophage-mediated clearance of leukemia cells through the blockade of inhibitory signals transmitted by signal regulatory protein α (SIRPα).
