Abstract: The current disclosure provides for novel therapeutic methods by identifying glioblastoma patient populations that may be treated effectively by immunotherapies. Also provided are therapies that may be used in combination of immune checkpoint therapy (ICB) to increase the effectiveness of the therapy. Aspects of the disclosure relate to a method of treating glioblastoma in a subject comprising administering to the subject immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy after the subject has been determined to have low expression of CD73 in a biological sample from the subject.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to a method of treating glioblastoma in a subject comprising administering to the subject a KDM6B inhibitor. In some aspects, the methods are performed in combination with an immunoterhapy. Further aspects relate to a composition comprising a KDM6B inhibitor and an immunotherapy.

Abstract: The current disclosure provides for novel therapeutic methods by identifying cancer patient populations that may be treated effectively by immunotherapies. Accordingly, aspects of the disclosure relate to a method of treating cancer in a subject comprising administering to the subject immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy after the subject has been determined to have increased expression of CXCL13 in a biological sample from the subject.

Abstract: Agonists to ICOS in combination with a blocking agent to a T cell inhibitory receptor (e.g., CTLA-4, PD-1, etc.) are demonstrated herein to be useful for the treatment of tumors.

Abstract: Provided herein are mice that are heterozygous knock outs for Ctla4 and homozygous knockouts for Pdcd1 (Ctla4+/? Pdcd1?/? mice), which may suffer from autoimmunity, including myocarditis and insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. Also provided are methods of using such mice to screen for therapeutic agents that mitigate immune-related adverse events.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods for identifying a subject as a responder or non-responder to immune checkpoint blockade by detecting a B cell signature. Further provided herein are methods for treating cancer by administering immune checkpoint blockade therapy to a subject identified to have a B cell signature.

Abstract: Described herein are chimeric Newcastle disease viruses engineered to express an agonist of a co-stimulatory signal of an immune cell and compositions comprising such viruses. Also described herein are chimeric Newcastle disease viruses engineered to express an antagonist of an inhibitory signal of an immune cell and compositions comprising such viruses. The chimeric Newcastle disease viruses and compositions are useful in the treatment of cancer. In addition, described herein are methods for treating cancer comprising administering Newcastle disease viruses in combination with an agonist of a co-stimulatory signal of an immune and/or an antagonist of an inhibitory signal of an immune cell.
