    Targeting "Aged" Immune Cells: A New Strategy to Boost Immunotherapy in Solid Tumors
    This study provides valuable insights into the variability of tumor immune microenvironment across individuals and highlights the potential to enhance antitumor efficacy by targeting immunosenescence. Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a malignant tumor originating from the epithelial cells of the head and neck region. As a neoadjuvant treatment for locally advanced HNSCC, chemoimm...
