Tumor cells often evade an immune response, e.g., by reducing or eliminating MHC expression and/or IFN-signaling, which enables uncontrolled growth. We demonstrate herein that antibody-based immunotherapy in combination with IL2 administration is an effective therapy against such resistant tumors. Specifically, the present disclosure relates to methods of treating a subject with cancer that is at least partially resistant to an MHC-dependent T cell response comprising administering to the subject: a. a polypeptide comprising IL2 or a functional variant thereof or a polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide comprising IL2 or a functional variant thereof; and b. antibody-based immunotherapy. |
