Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors for the Treatment of Cancer: Clinical Impact and Mechanisms of Response and Resistance
Open accessAbstract
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have made an indelible mark in the field of cancer immunotherapy. Starting with the approval of anti-cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (anti-CTLA-4) for advanced-stage melanoma in 2011, ICIs—which now also include antibodies against programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) and its ligand (PD-L1)—quickly gained US Food and Drug Administration approval for the treatment of a wide array of cancer types, demonstrating unprecedented extension of patient survival. However, despite the success of ICIs, resistance to these agents restricts the number of patients able to achieve durable responses, and immune-related adverse events complicate treatment. Thus, a better understanding of the requirements for an effective and safe antitumor immune response following ICI therapy is needed. Studies of both tumoral and systemic changes in the immune system following ICI therapy have yielded insight into the basis for both efficacy and resistance. Ultimately, by building on these insights, researchers should be able to combine ICIs with other agents, or design new immunotherapies, to achieve broader and more durable efficacy as well as greater safety. Here, we review the history and clinical utility of ICIs, the mechanisms of resistance to therapy, and local and systemic immune cell changes associated with outcome.

“Examination of the lymphocytes that correlated with such beneficial outcomes has repeatedly implicated effector and memory CD8 + T cell and NK cell populations (136-141).”
§ Annual Review of Pathology: Mechanisms of Disease Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors for the Treatment of Cancer: Clinical Impact and Mechanisms of Response and Resistance > LOCAL AND SYSTEMIC IMMUNE RESPONSES TO IMMUNE CHECKPOINT INHIBITORS
What the sources say
- Not checked yetcites [136] source
- Partly supportedcites [137] sourceExperimental — accuracy not yet measured
The Results report that CD8+ effector-memory cells were significantly more frequent in anti-CTLA-4 responders, while the Discussion links activated NK-cell subsets to better anti-PD-1 response. The paper does not support the broader implication that terminal-effector CD8+ cells or NK cells generally correlate with benefit: terminal-effector CD8+ cells tended to be lower in responders without statistical significance, and overall NK-cell frequencies did not differ significantly. (LLM, conf=0.84)
- Partly supportedcites [138] sourceExperimental — accuracy not yet measured
The section “Clinical response is associated to the generation of memory T cells” reports a sustained increase in effector and terminal effector memory CD8+ T cells among patients with disease control after ipilimumab. The passages from our copy do not establish a corresponding link between NK cells and beneficial outcomes, so the NK-cell part is unsupported. (LLM, conf=0.87)
- Partly supportedcites [139] sourceExperimental — accuracy not yet measured
The Discussion (page unavailable) reports higher NK-cell frequency in responders, supporting the NK-cell portion. The Results (page unavailable) found no significant association between CD8+ effector-memory or other CD8+ subsets and clinical response, so this paper does not support that portion of the claim. (LLM, conf=0.90)
- Partly supportedcites [140] sourceExperimental — accuracy not yet measured
The Results section on tumor-infiltrating CD45RO+CD8+ T cells links CD8+ effector-memory cells to response to PD-1 blockade. But the Discussion says the authors could not document an increase in CD8+ cells with an effector phenotype, and the Results section on intratumoral leukocytes reports no significant change in NK cells on treatment. This source therefore supports the memory CD8+ portion, not the full list of populations implicated in beneficial outcomes. (LLM, conf=0.90)

“30-60% of patients experience irAEs of any grade”
§ Annual Review of Pathology: Mechanisms of Disease Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors for the Treatment of Cancer: Clinical Impact and Mechanisms of Response and Resistance > IMMUNE-RELATED ADVERSE EVENTS
What the sources say
- Partly supportedcites [114] sourceExperimental — accuracy not yet measured
Table 1 (page unavailable) reports any-grade irAE frequencies for individual toxicities in selected immune-checkpoint inhibitor cohorts, supporting that treated patients experience these events. It does not report that 30–60% of patients experience at least one irAE of any grade; its percentages are for specific toxicities, not overall patient incidence. (LLM, conf=0.78)
- Could not verifycites [115] sourceExperimental — accuracy not yet measured
The Abstract describes a review of 139 case reports of immune-related adverse events, not the proportion of all checkpoint-inhibitor recipients who experience them. The Literature Search section says severity grades were often unreported. Searches for the 30–60% figure and any-grade incidence found no passage establishing the claimed rate. (LLM, conf=0.76)
- Partly supportedcites [117] sourceExperimental — accuracy not yet measured
The Introduction (Anti-PD-1 and anti-PD-L1 antibodies; page unavailable) reports any-grade irAEs in 44% of one treated NSCLC cohort and irAEs in 39.3% and 57.7% of other treated cohorts. These figures support the approximate range for some groups, but the paper does not state a general 30–60% incidence across patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors; it also reports 20% in a treated renal-cell carcinoma cohort.

“Response rates to ICI treatment vary widely among different cancers, ranging from greater than 80% in patients with refractory Hodgkin's lymphoma to little or no response in patients with mismatch repair-proficient colorectal cancer (76, 77); many tumor indications fall within a response rate range of 20% to 40% (78).”

What the sources say
- Partly supportedcites [76] sourceExperimental — accuracy not yet measured
The Introduction notes activity of PD-1 blockade in classical Hodgkin lymphoma, supporting the qualitative point that it responds to treatment. It gives no response rate above 80%, and our copy does not address mismatch repair-proficient colorectal cancer (searched for that term). The 20–40% range is attached to a different citation in the citing sentence. (LLM, conf=0.78)
- Supportedcites [77] source
The Results (Primary End Point) report a 0% objective response rate in patients with mismatch repair–proficient colorectal cancer; the Radiographic Evaluation likewise reports no objective responses among 18 such patients. This supports the low-or-no-response portion of the sentence for which this paper is cited. The 20–40% statement is separately attributed to citation 78. (LLM, conf=0.92)

The citation to this paper is attached to the statement that many tumor indications have response rates of 20–40%. In “Clinical effects of PD-1/PD-L1 blockade therapy” (page unavailable), the paper reports 35–40% for common melanoma variants, but 15–25% for several other cancers. It supports variation across indications, not the stated range for all the examples it discusses. (LLM, conf=0.82)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-07, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-07 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
