Abstract

Careful study of T-cell clonal dynamics in patients with non-small cell lung cancer treated with neoadjuvant nivolumab suggests that successful trafficking of clones from a proliferative burst in the periphery to the tumor associates with major pathologic response. Integration of these findings with functional analysis may augment current therapeutic strategies.<i>See related article by Zhang et al., p. 1327</i>.
