Abstract
Radiotherapy and immunotherapy can be concomitantly or sequentially combined seeking synergistic effects in terms of control of irradiated tumors and abscopal effects on nonirradiated lesions. Clinical-trial testing of such combinations faces several obstacles to demonstrate efficacy and needs improvements in trial design, patient selection, evaluation of results and biomarker discovery.<i>See related article by Foster et al., p. 5510</i>.
