    Summary
    Both Cy/GVAX plus degarelix and degarelix alone led to significant increases in intratumoral CD8+ T-cell infiltration and PD-L1 expression as compared with a cohort of untreated, matched controls.

    Summary · context
    We conducted a neoadjuvant, randomized study to quantify the immunologic effects of a GM-CSF-secreting allogeneic cellular vaccine in combination with low-dose cyclophosphamide (Cy/GVAX) followed by degarelix versus degarelix alone in patients with high-risk localized prostate adenocarcinoma who wer…

  3. 03HumanNon-randomized trialMechanism

    In high-risk localized prostate cancer, the CD8-positive T-cell infiltrate seen with androgen deprivation by degarelix, with or without Cy/GVAX, was accompanied by a proportional increase in regulatory T cells.

    In plain wordsIn localized prostate cancer, the immune-cell infiltrate seen with degarelix, with or without a vaccine, was accompanied by a proportional increase in regulatory T cells.

    Summary
    However, the CD8+ T-cell infiltrate was accompanied by a proportional increase in regulatory T cells (Treg), suggesting that adaptive Treg resistance may dampen the immunogenicity of ADT.
