Abstract
Elimination of regulatory T cells via the anti-CCR4 monoclonal antibody, mogamulizumab, is expected to augment anti-tumour immune response. Authors show here that although regulatory T cell targeting is successful, clinical improvement remains minimal in patients with solid tumours due to concomitant and unintended depletion of central memory CD8+ T cells.
