Einem internationalen Forschungsteam unter Federführung der @uniheidelberg.bsky.social und des DKFZ ist es gelungen, ein neues Prognosemodell für seltene Hirnlymphome zu entwickeln. Dabei erwiesen sich Tumoren, in denen das Epstein-Barr-Virus nachweisbar war, als besonders aggressiv.

Researchers at the DKFZ have identified a previously unknown key mechanism by which cancer cells suppress the immune system and thus evade the effects of immunotherapies. At the same time, the new study points to a promising way to prevent resistance to immunotherapy.
