Title: TCR Repertoires of Tumor-Infiltrating γδ1 T Cells Reveal PD-1–Modulated Reactivity
Speaker: Dr. Joanna Mikulak
Date: Wednesday, June 18, 2025
Time: 1:30 p.m. – 2:15 p.m.
Location: Auditorium VIII

This symposium will highlight the correlation between the presence of Vδ1 T cells in tumor lesions and improved overall survival in endometrial cancer patients, and how the expression of PD-1 on tumor-infiltrating Vδ1 T cells impacts their effector functionality. This presentation also explores how PD-1 blockade enhances the cytotoxic response against autologous tumor cells. Specifically, an approach based on γδ TCR repertoire analysis will be presented to demonstrate how these cells exhibit characteristics of tumor-reactive cells.

► Poster Presentation

Title: Exosomes from urine: A multi-purpose system for urine liquid biopsy 
Presented by: Dr. Serena Bonin | Associate Professor | University of Trieste

We look forward to meeting you in Lisbon at EACR 2025!
