Treated 9464D-GD2 tumors have significantly fewer T regulatory cells, with a higher CD8+ T cell to Treg ratio, and more CD4+ T cells and monocytes/macrophages compared to untreated tumors. Untreated 9464D-GD2 tumors and tumors treated with 12 Gy and combined ½ dose IT-IC, anti-CTLA-4 (CTLA), CpG, and anti-CD40 (CD40) were harvested on treatment day 13, and tumor microenvironment was analyzed by flow cytometry (a). Representative dot plots of Treg populations (defined as CD25 + FoxP3+ of CD45 + CD4+ live cells) are shown for three representative untreated (b) and treated (c) tumors (numerical values shown are the % of CD45 + CD4+ live cells that are Tregs)
