Abstract
Cancer immunotherapy represents a very encouraging mode of treatment for cancer where one's immune system is utilized to eliminate tumor cells. Wayne et al. explore inhibition of DNA damage response (DDR) pathways with small molecule inhibitors as a means to prime cells with immune response. These findings suggest that a one‐size‐fits‐all approach cannot be used when harnessing immune response via DDR inhibitors and genotoxic agents, which are required ultimately for the success of immunotherapy.
