Examining the Relationship between Circulating CD4- CD8- Double-Negative T Cells and Outcomes of Immuno-Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy-Looking for Biomarkers and Therapeutic Targets in Metastatic Melanoma.

DNT cells change during treatment with checkpoint inhibitors and may be adept at sensing the immune response to melanoma. The complementary variation of DNT cells with respect to CD4+ and other immune actors may improve the reliability of lymphocyte assessment. Further investigation of DNT as a potential target in checkpoint inhibitor resistant melanoma is warranted.
