Abstract

Immune checkpoint blockade is one of the central pillars of therapy for metastatic melanoma. Recently, cell cycle inhibitors such as palbociclib have demonstrated antitumor activity in vivo in different tumour entities. Besides tumour cell killing, tumour therapy also induces senescence, which is characterized by a stable growth arrest. The secretome of senescent cells, termed senescence- associated secretory phenotype (SASP), has diverse effects on tumor growth. We wondered how the SASP of therapy-induced senescent (TIS) cells differs from the SASP of cytokine-induced senescent (CIS) cells.
