SUMMARY

Aims: Radiotherapy (RT) is pivotal in cancer care, with 50 to 60% of patients receiving it. Traditionally, RT's primary mechanism was deemed to induce lethal DNA damage. However, recent findings unveil contributions from immune responses and immunological cell death to its anti-tumor efficacy. Since RT alone has limitations in maximizing these effects, novel strategies to activate immune responses are sought. Despite trials combining RT with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), optimal combinations remain elusive. This study aims to elucidate post-RT dynamics of cancer immune responses and gene expression profiles, aiming to optimize both immunotherapy and radiotherapy.
