Popis: While combinations of immune checkpoint (ICP) inhibitors and neo-adjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) have begun to be tested in patients with breast cancer (BC), chemotherapeutic effects on ICP expression in circulating T cells are still unclear. This information could help design future clinical trials including the selection of the best ICP inhibitors to be incorporated into NAC and finding predictive/prognostic biomarkers. Peripheral blood samples and/or tumor specimens before and after NAC were obtained from twenty-four women with operable BC. Using flow cytometry, the expression of CTLA4, PD-1, Lag3, OX40, and Tim3 on circulating T lymphocytes before and at the end of NAC were measured. Differences in the percentage of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells expressing various checkpoint receptors pre- and post-NAC were determined by a paired t-test. This data showed decreased ICP expression after NAC by circulating CD4+ T cells, including significant decreases in CTLA4 (p Citation Format: Dionisia M.
