Abscopal effect is an interesting phenomenon in radiobiology that causes activation of
immune system against cancer cells. Traditionally, this phenomenon was known as a …

The abscopal effect refers to the ability of localized radiation to trigger systemic antitumor
effects. Over the past 50 years, reports on the abscopal effect arising from conventional …

The abscopal effect is potentially important for tumor control and is mediated through
cytokines and/or the immune system, mainly cell-mediated immunity. It results from loss of …

Radiotherapy (RT) is delivered for purposes of local control, but can also exert systemic
effect on remote and non-irradiated tumor deposits, which is called abscopal effect. The view …

The abscopal effect describes the ability of locally administered radiotherapy to induce
systemic antitumor effects. Over the past 40 years, reports on the abscopal effect following …

Radiation therapy is a highly effective local treatment for cancer. However, sporadic events
of tumor regression in unirradiated fields, known as abscopal effect, have been observed for …

Approximately one‐half of patients with newly diagnosed cancer and many patients with
persistent or recurrent tumors receive radiotherapy (RT), with the explicit goal of eliminating …

An “abscopal” effect occurs when localized irradiation perturbs the organism as a whole,
with consequences that can be either beneficial or detrimental. Mechanistic explanations of …

Immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI) targeting the programmed death receptor 1 (PD-1) has
shown promising results in the fight against cancer. Systemic anti-tumor reactions due to …

Simple Summary Combination of radiotherapy and immunotherapy to antagonize tumors is
one of hotspot issues currently. Immunotherapy can effectively alleviate the non-lasting …
