Integration of Salmonella into current immunotherapies.
| Co-administer Salmonella with Current Immunotherapeutics | Engineered Salmonella Mediated Therapy | Carrying/Secreting RNAi or Antibodies of Immune Checkpoints |
|---|---|---|
| •Induces antitumor cytokines in TME | •Enhances tumor antigen(s) expression | •Inhibits PD-L1 of cancer cells |
| •Recruits more anti-tumor immune cells into the TME | •As a gene therapeutic delivery to affect cancer-related genes | •Activates CTL in the TME |
| •Attenuates immunosuppression in the TME | •Enhances targeting ability of immune checkpoint therapy and weakens irAEs |
