Thus, agents able to reprogram macrophages toward a proinflammatory state hold promise as novel immunotherapies for solid cancers. Inhibition of the macrophage scavenger receptor Clever-1 has shown benefit in inducing CD8 T-cell-mediated antitumor responses in mouse models of cancer, which supports the clinical development of Clever-1-targeting ant...
