Abstract

Meeting abstracts Cryo is an effective modality for pain palliation and local control of soft tissue and bone metastases. Cryo induces necrotic cell death, and combination cryo with anti-CTLA-4 generates potent systemic anti-tumor immune responses in preclinical models and small clinical studies.

Highlights

  • Cryo is an effective modality for pain palliation and local control of soft tissue and bone metastases

  • We report the safety and efficacy of IT cryo and systemic ipilimumab or pembrolizumab in patients with MM

  • Exploratory immune correlates from peripheral blood and tumor samples were obtained when available
